Translator: 549690339
He Qingzhe looked at Yang Xiaotian walking alone ahead and sneered coldly.
Inside Tiandou Academy, with Fan Riquan present, he couldn’t make a move. Now, without Fan Riquan around, Yang Xiaotian, let’s see who can protect you!
Just as He Qingzhe was about to step forward and slam Yang Xiaotian into the ground to eat dirt, he saw several people approaching Yang Xiaotian. It was none other than the prince of Ancient Sword Kingdom, Gu Xi.
Gu Xi hadn’t expected to encounter Yang Xiaotian. When he saw him from afar, he hurried over with his entourage, surprised and delighted.
“Divine Yang!” Gu Xi called out joyfully from a distance.
Seeing that it was Gu Xi, Yang Xiaotian was also a bit surprised and smiled, “Prince Gu Xi.”
Gu Xi waved his hand, looking sowhat embarrassed, and said, “What prince? Just call Gu Xi from now on.” He then asked with a smile, “Did Divine Yang just leave the academy? Are you free? Shall we go for a few drinks?”
Yang Xiaotian was montarily startled, then nodded with a smile, “Sure.” He had a good impression of Prince Gu Xi of Ancient Sword Kingdom.
Upon hearing Yang Xiaotian’s agreent, Gu Xi was overjoyed and said enthusiastically, “Great, let’s go. I know of a tavern in Tiandou Imperial City that’s really quite excellent.”
Seeing Gu Xi’s child-like joy, Yang Xiaotian smiled.
From afar, He Qingzhe’s face darkened when he saw Gu Xi leaving with Yang Xiaotian. Damn it, just when he could make a move, another shit-stirrer pops up! With Gu Xi and his guards around, it was not convenient for him to act.
However, he was not content to just walk away; instead, he followed behind Yang Xiaotian and the others.
Gu Xi led Yang Xiaotian to a small tavern that was a bit out of the way. Even though it was secluded, the wine was truly good, and Yang Xiaotian and Gu Xi’s group drank rrily.
By then, it was the cold winter month, and He Qingzhe was hidden in the shadows, the cold wind blowing in gusts that made him fire up with anger, even smoke with rage.
Eventually, he left, his face flushed with anger.
Next year, he would join Subduing Dragon Sword Sect. Until then, he had plenty of opportunities to teach Yang Xiaotian a lesson.
He refused to believe that Yang Xiaotian could always slip away.
Late into the night, Yang Xiaotian and Gu Xi parted ways, and Yang Xiaotian returned to his residence.
But when he got back, he found Liu An and a few others waiting for him, with bruised noses and swollen faces.
“What happened?” Yang Xiaotian’s face darkened.
Liu An stamred, “It was Liu Shuang from the dicine Hall.”
“Liu Shuang?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
“Liu Shuang is a Senior Executor of Tiandou Imperial Kingdom’s Pharmacist
Hall, and also a disciple of Wang Fan, the Grand Master of Pharmacists of Tiandou Imperial Kingdom,” Liu An explained. “Today, young master, when you asked us to go buy dicinal ingredients at the dicine Hall, we ran into Liu Shuang. We had past grievances with him, and they outnumbered us; we were no match.”
At this, Liu An lowered his head, “We didn’t manage to buy the young master’s dicinal ingredients, we’re sorry, young master.” All five of Liu An’s group lowered their heads.
Yang Xiaotian’s eyes turned cold.
These past days, he had almost used up the dicinal ingredients for concocting the Nine Suns Longevity Pill. Today he had sent Liu An to buy them, only to find out that not only did they not get the ingredients, but they were also beaten until their noses were bruised and faces swollen.
“Does Elder Wu know?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
“We didn’t dare tell master yet,” Liu An gave a bitter smile, knowing that if his master found out, he would inevitably turn the Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall upside down, which would surely cause trouble.
That’s because behind the Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall, stood none other than the Empire Alchemy Hall of the Divine Dragon Empire.
As the Grand Master of Pharmacists of the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom, Wang Fan was also the brother of a Great Elder in the Empire Alchemy Hall of the Divine Dragon Empire.
“Tomorrow, I’ll go with you to the Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall,” Yang Xiaotian said coldly.
Liu An hesitated, then said, “It might be useless for young master to go. Liu Shuang and his master Wang Fan are extrely overbearing, and he said it didn’t matter who I brought with , it would all be the sa. Moreover, he has ordered that no dicine Hall within Tiandou Imperial Kingdom is allowed to sell dicinal ingredients to anymore.”
Liu An was a Three-Star Pharmacist.
According to the rules of the Empire Alchemy Hall of the Divine Dragon Empire, all pharmacists have the right to purchase dicinal materials from any pharmacy.
However, now Liu Shuang has stipulated that no pharmacy in the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom is allowed to sell dicinal materials to Liu An.
“No pharmacy in the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom is allowed to sell dicinal materials to you?” Yang Xiaotian said coldly.
Liu An nodded, “In the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom, Liu Shuang and Wang Fan, master and disciple, can be said to cover the sky with one hand. They restrict whichever pharmacist’s rights they wish to restrict.”
“Any pharmacist who dares to disobey their orders will have their qualifications revoked by them.”
“The pharmacists of the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom’s dicine Hall are furious but dare not speak out. So have reported the problems with Liu Shuang and Wang Fan to the Empire Alchemy Hall of the Divine Dragon Empire, but nothing ca of it, and the pharmacists who made the reports had their qualifications revoked by Liu Shuang and Wang Fan in the end.”
“Wang Fan even stipulated that the family of that pharmacist cannot have any of its disciples take the pharmacist exam in the future.”
Yang Xiaotian’s brow furrowed deeply.
From this it seems that Liu Shuang and Wang Fan, master and disciple, are even worse than bullies.
“In the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom, even His Majesty Tiandou has to give three points of courtesy to Wang Fan, ” said Liu An.
“Alright, I understand now,” Yang Xiaotian said. He then gave Liu An and the others so healing elixirs and told them to go down and heal.
The night was thick, and the cold frost drifted down.
But Yang Xiaotian was pondering over the assassin he had encountered in the tower today, wondering who had sent them.
Was it Zhong Yun? Or He Qingzhe? Or was it Guo Wei, Xiao Yong, and their ilk?
The next day, Yang Xiaotian called on Wu Qi, and together with Liu An and the others, they left the residence and headed towards the Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall.
Wu Qi already knew about what had happened to Liu An and the others the day before, so his expression all the way was fiercely unapproachable.
Soon, Yang Xiaotian and his group arrived at the Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall.
The Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall was bustling, with experts from various sects and families coming in and out.
As soon as Yang Xiaotian and his group arrived, a pharmacist imdiately reported to Liu Shuang that Liu An had brought people.
Liu Shuang was in the Inner Hall, leisurely enjoying the pearl grapes brought by a female pharmacist. Upon hearing the report that Liu An had co again, he couldn’t help but chuckle with a sneer, “They dare to co again? How many people have they brought this ti?”
“An old man close to death’s door, and a child of eight or nine years old,” the pharmacist hastily replied.
Liu Shuang almost choked on the grape in his mouth and burst into laughter, “An old man and a kid?” He then stood up, laughing, “Co, let’s go out and see what kind of odd specins Liu An has brought!”
Under Liu Shuang’s lead, a group of experts marched mightily towards the front hall.
Upon reaching the front hall, Liu Shuang saw Liu An and scoffed with a laugh,
“Liu An, you actually dare to co!” Then his gaze fell on Yang Xiaotian and
Wu Qi, and he started to laugh, “These are the experts you’ve brought?”
“This old man, about to die, right? And this little brat, has he been weaned yet?”
With that, his eyes flashed viciously, “I warned you yesterday, if you dared to step into the gates of the Pharmacist Hall again, I would break your limbs!” His entourage of experts was about to surge forward.
However, as these people were about to advance, Wu Qi snorted coldly and slamd his large wooden staff violently against the ground.
Boom!
A thunderous explosion resonated.
The entire Pharmacist Hall shook violently.
Everyone in the Grand Hall felt their minds thundering, and all were shocked and terrified.
A fierce aura of the Supre Emperor burst forth from Wu Qi, causing the Pharmacist Hall to roar incessantly.
