Arrogant Medicine Man
Gu Xuan sneered in his heart. He didn't want to cause trouble for the time being, but that didn't mean he was afraid of trouble. If anyone dared to bully him, he wouldn't mind teaching them an unforgettable lesson.
The burly man's speed was extremely fast. It was incomparable to his 1.9m tall body. Unfortunately, no matter how fast he was, he was as slow as a tortoise in Gu Xuan's eyes.
Just when the burly man's hand was a foot away from Gu Xuan, Gu Xuan's figure blurred. Then, the medicine that the burly man had stuffed into Gu Xuan's mouth.
The burly man felt a pain in his wrist and a bitter taste in his mouth. The burning pain went from his throat to his stomach.
"Ptooey!"
The burly man spat a few mouthfuls of saliva and retched. However, the two herbs were already in his stomach and he couldn't spit them out.
The group of medicine men couldn't help but gasp. They didn't even see how Gu Xuan did it.
Gu Xuan stood in place. His face was as calm as an ancient well. It was as if he hadn't moved from the beginning to the end.
Only the grey-clothed youth among the three behind the burly man had a slight change in his expression. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Based on Gu Xuan's previous move, he was already suspicious of Gu Xuan's identity. This wasn't an ordinary medicine man. Otherwise, Yun Qiu wouldn't have died last night. Even his soul energy wouldn't have been burned.
This meant that Gu Xuan wasn't as simple as a peak Mystic Grade. He was at least a 5-star King Grade expert!
"Brat, how dare you make me eat this medicine. I, Xue Pao, am the number one among the medicine men. I've only ever tried to eat pills. Today, you're making me eat this unknown medicine? You're courting death! "
Xue Pao was flustered and exasperated. His 1.9m tall body was like a mountain as he charged towards Gu Xuan.
"You're overestimating yourself!"
Gu Xuan frowned and pointed his finger. A blast of energy exploded and hit Xue Pao.
Xue Pao groaned and his body fell back heavily. With a thud, he fell to the ground and couldn't say a word.
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, Xue Pao's face turned purple. He held his stomach and rolled on the ground. He looked extremely miserable.
The surrounding herbmen looked at Gu Xuan with fear in their eyes. Even the strongest herbmen, Xue Huo, had been beaten so miserably in one move?
"The medicinal properties of the two herbs are taking effect. Go and ask for the senior alchemist from the Hall of Medicine!" Gu Xiaonian shouted at the right time.
Only then did everyone come to realize that it was not Gu Xuan who was strong, but it was because those two medicinal herbs were poisonous that caused Senior Brother Xue Huo to be in such pain.
The two people beside Chen Lei had been shocked by Gu Xuan's attack and didn't dare to attack. But after they "realized" what had happened, their faces became ferocious again.
They were all members of the Soaring Sky Alliance like Xue Huo. Now that Xue Huo was in such pain, and the culprit was this young man called Gu Dao, how could they not take revenge?
The two of them looked at each other and rushed towards Gu Xuan at the same time. Each of them performed a martial art, one fist and one palm, creating a violent wind as they attacked Gu Xuan from both sides.
"Not good! Senior Brother Gu Dao, dodge! "Gu Xiaonian's expression changed. When the two of them joined forces, they were even stronger than Xue Bao.
"Humph, you can't run away either!"
One of the men from the Soaring Sky Alliance who was attacking Gu Xuan sneered and expanded the range of his attack to cover Gu Xiaonian. He wanted to kill Gu Xiaonian as well!
Gu Xiaonian felt a strong force pressing down on him. The air was compressed and he couldn't breathe properly. This attack was too strong. Even if he was only affected by it, he couldn't withstand it.
He had just entered the Xuan Stage. He was no match for these two men at the peak of the Xuan Stage.
Gu Xiaonian's face was pale. He had just become an Elixir Man three days ago, and he was still looking forward to becoming an outer disciple. But now, he was going to die?
Even if he didn't die, he would be disabled.
Gu Xiaonian closed his eyes. He didn't even think about fighting back. The gap between their strength was too big!
Gu Xuan snorted. "As a martial artist, you are destined to die young if you don't have a good eye!"
Two fingers pointed out and landed on the chests of the two attackers with the speed of a clap of thunder.
Crack.
Their sternum was broken, and their bodies flew out like kites with broken strings.
Instant kill!
And it was only two fingers!
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
Gu Xiaonian's eyes widened. He couldn't believe what had just happened. He thought he was going to die, but Senior Brother Gu Dao defeated the two men so easily.
"Who is making trouble here? Although this is the Medicine Testing Pavilion, it is also in the Hall of Medicine. Have you lowly Elixir Men forgotten your identity? "
Outside the Medicine Testing Pavilion, a young man with an air of arrogance between his brows walked in.
"It's Senior Brother Yue Yangyu. He is a good friend of Senior Brother Liu Yan. He looks down on us Elixir Men the most. Gu Xuan is in trouble," someone whispered.
As soon as Yue Yangyu entered the room, his eyes fell on Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan stood in the middle of the room, and the others looked at him like a crowd. It was too eye-catching.
Yue Yangyu snorted and said angrily, "New Elixir Man, Gu Dao, right? Don't think that you are qualified to show off just because Senior Brother Liu Yan brought you here. Your duty is to test the medicine. Today's medicine testing task will be completed by you! "
"Hiss …"
Sounds of gasps could be heard one after another.
Medicine testing was a dangerous job. Normally, Elixir Men would only test medicine once a day, or even once every ten days or half a month. This was the only way to ensure that the previous medicine's efficacy would be exhausted.
Testing the medicine several times a day, regardless of whether the medicinal properties were compatible or repulsive, the tester would suffer great pain.
There were about ten more medicine testing tasks today. Eating ten different medicines with unknown efficacy would only lead to death, even if one had the body of a peak Xuan Level Body.
As a branch of the Daoist Sect, Xuan Sect had many alchemists. Ordinary medicines didn't need to be tested. Medicines that needed to be tested were not ordinary. Even the alchemists couldn't determine their efficacy. Most of them were harmful.
Yue Yangyu's request was no different from killing Gu Xuan with his own hands.
The moment Yue Yangyu came in, Chen Lei quietly blended into the crowd of Elixir Men. He originally wanted to test Gu Xuan himself, but now it seemed that it wasn't necessary.
The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Only Xue Pao's moans could be heard. Unfortunately, Yue Yangyu didn't even look at him. In his eyes, Elixir Men were just animals for testing medicine. If they died, so be it. They weren't worth saving.
"Why aren't you starting? Do you want me to feed you myself? "Yue Yangyu stared coldly at Gu Xuan.
Gu Xiaonian muttered, "Senior Brother Gu Dao, quickly apologize to Senior Brother Yue Yangyu. Maybe you can save your life."
Gu Xuan smiled. It was just medicine testing. There was no need to make such a fuss. Besides, with his knowledge of all kinds of medicines, why would he need to taste them?
"Only unqualified alchemists need others to test their medicine." Gu Xuan looked at Yue Yangyu. He didn't care about the murderous look in his eyes.
"Good! Good! What an arrogant Elixir Man! If you still don't die after testing these medicines, I'll personally prepare a medicine that will kill you! "Yue Yangyu sneered. Gu Dao was too ungrateful!
Gu Xuan smiled and said, "I'm afraid there's no medicine in Xuan Sect that can poison me. To tell you the truth, I'm also an alchemist. Although my grade is a little low, at least I don't need others to test my medicine. "
