Lu Fei stepped forward and rolled around in the pool of blood. Immediately, his whole body was drenched in blood. Then, he smeared a lot of blood on his face, making him look ferocious and terrifying. Now that he was wearing a mask, even he couldn't recognize himself.
Lu Fei picked up a saber from the ground and held it in his hand. Using his Qing Gong, he caught up with a group of red-clothed people and pretended to search the dense forest. A large group of people searched the forest, but they couldn't find any trace of Lu Fei even after a long time. They could only withdraw and gather together to head towards the peak. Lu Fei was also mixed in with the crowd. Because these people didn't seem to be organized like an army, they were a bit like a gangster. Usually, they were a branch leader's subordinates. Therefore, Lu Fei mixed in with the crowd. Although the others didn't recognize him, they wouldn't ask. Moreover, his face was smeared with blood, so no one could recognize him. A red-clothed man asked, "Hey, you seem to be injured. Is it serious?"
Lu Fei touched the blood on his face and said, "This is someone else's." Lu Fei was afraid that this person would ask again, so he immediately pinched his waist. Suddenly, a few copper coins fell to the ground. Immediately, Lu Fei bent down to pick them up. The crowd behind him continued to move forward. Lu Fei immediately fell behind. There weren't many people around him, so no one asked him anymore.
The crowd walked all the way to the peak of the mountain and saw a large number of buildings in the open space. At the very front was a tall red lacquered gate. Inside the gate was a perfectly straight path that led to a spacious square in front of the main hall. Lu Fei followed the crowd and walked in. The crowd gathered in front of the main hall and began to count the casualties. Lu Fei took the opportunity to slip into a small path. If someone found out that he wasn't a person here, there would be a lot of fun. He walked along a small path and heard voices coming from afar. He immediately flew to the top of a small pavilion. If it wasn't for someone approaching the pavilion, he definitely wouldn't have been discovered.
Lu Fei remained in a daze for a while until he heard the people in the distant square disperse. Only then did Lu Fei descend the pavilion and go to the small lake to wash off the blood stains on his face. The mask was not as difficult to clean as the skin. Lu Fei splashed water on the mask, and all the blood stains on the mask fell off. At this moment, several people in red passed by. Lu Fei immediately followed behind them. After taking a few steps, someone suddenly shouted, "You guys, stop right there."
Lu Fei's heart skipped a beat. Could he have been discovered? He immediately stopped with the people in front of him, but he didn't dare to turn his head. Then, he heard a person under the eaves say, "You guys, come here for a moment."
Lu Fei followed the crowd and saw a middle-aged man dressed in a scholar's robe standing under the eaves of a dilapidated house. When the man saw them coming, he walked into the house. Lu Fei followed the crowd into the house and saw that it was a storeroom. The middle-aged man said, "You guys, carry this alchemy furnace to the pharmacy. This is what Miss wants to use. You guys must be careful."
Everyone agreed and went over to help. The alchemy furnace was made of iron, so it was big and heavy. The few of them found it difficult to lift it. Lu Fei also pretended to be doing his best. He and the others carried the alchemy furnace forward. Since there was someone leading the way, he didn't have to worry about going the wrong way. The crowd went around a few small paths and passed through a few doors before they arrived at a courtyard.
Lu Fei smelled the fragrance of herbs coming from the courtyard from afar. When he stepped into the courtyard, he heard voices coming from a side room. He immediately channeled his energy to listen. He heard a man's vigorous voice say, "If we don't send him off, that person will always be trouble. Look at the mess he has made now. We can't afford to offend this person."
Another woman's voice chimed in, "Father, give me some more time. I'll definitely capture this person. If we let him go, our Fire Worship Sect's reputation will be tarnished. Our Branch Leaders would be injured for nothing. Who would be willing to work for us then?"
The man said, "Do you think the mess you have made is not big enough? Do you want to shake our sect's entire fortune before you stop? "
The woman's voice said, "I have already figured out this person's temperament. This time, I will definitely catch him. If this person is willing to join our sect, all the losses will be made up for."
The room fell into silence for a moment. The man seemed to be quite moved and said, "Then I will let you try again. If you fail this time, you are not allowed to make any more trouble."
Just as everyone placed the alchemy furnace on the ground, the door of the side room was pushed open with a creak. A woman in a moon-white robe took the lead and walked out. When everyone saw her, they saluted and greeted her. Lu Fei also pretended to salute, but his eyes secretly glanced at her. He saw that this white-robed woman had a beautiful appearance. Her eyes were quick-witted, and her black hair was tied behind her head with a scarf tied around her head. She was dressed like a man.
Lu Fei saw her looking at everyone and quickly lowered his eyes. He secretly thought that after listening to the conversation just now, this person must be Lan Zhen.
After a while, Lan Zhen said, "Carry the furnace to that room." As she spoke, she pointed to the opposite room. Everyone immediately lifted the furnace and walked into the room to set it straight. Lan Zhen walked in and took a look. "That's it. Let's move the exploded furnace away." Lu Fei looked to the corner and saw that there was indeed a furnace that had been blown to pieces. Everyone immediately went over to pick up the pieces and walked out of the room. When Lu Fei walked over, there was only a lid left on the ground. He could only pick it up and walk out of the room. Lan Zhen saw this and said, "Wait, give me the lid."
Lu Fei immediately handed the lid over respectfully. Lan Zhen's white fingers took the lid and placed it on the alchemy furnace. She said, "This is just right. Don't throw it away. Just leave it here."
Lu Fei immediately placed the lid against the wall. Just as he was about to leave, Lan Zhen said, "Wait, help me take that jar from the cabinet." As she spoke, she pointed to a pitch-black jar on top of the medicine cabinet. Lu Fei saw that the medicine cabinet was about half the height of a person. If he used his qinggong, he would be able to easily grab it. However, he couldn't reveal it right now. He immediately moved a stool from the side and stepped on it. He took the jar down and handed it to Lan Zhen.
Lan Zhen said, "Put it on the table."
Lu Fei placed the jar on the table. Lan Zhen walked over and opened the lid. Lu Fei saw a viper with a bright purple head lying inside. When it heard the noise, it immediately raised its head and charged towards Lu Fei. Lu Fei was startled. In that instant, his thoughts raced. If he made a move, he would have to reveal his superb martial arts. At that time, it would be strange if Lan Zhen didn't become suspicious. However, if he didn't make a move, what would he do if the viper bit him?
