Chapter 415: Chapter 415: There’s a Problem with the Elixir Pills!
For the past two days, he had endured all sorts of humiliation and mockery, biding his ti here for this very mont. And now, it had finally arrived! He had finally succeeded in executing his plan! At this mont, he was overco with excitent.
He spat directly at Qi Yuanchen. "To hell with your crap! Do you really think I care about sucking up to you?"
With that, Zhang Cangsong slapped Qi Yuanchen twice across the face.
SLAP! SLAP!
In an instant, Qi Yuanchen’s face beca red and swollen. Zhang Cangsong was completely unrestrained. After all, Qi Yuanchen was in a daze. He couldn’t fight back and was completely obedient to his commands.
After venting so of his anger, Zhang Cangsong ordered Qi Yuanchen, "Hand over all the Elixir Pills!"
"Yes."
Qi Yuanchen nodded obediently. He opened his palm, taking out all the Elixir Pills from his Storage Ring. Five full bottles of Elixir Pills lay on the table.
Seeing so many pills of such high purity, it would be a lie to say he wasn’t tempted. If he were to use these Elixir Pills for his own cultivation, his strength would surely leap to another level in a short ti. However, temptation was one thing, but the current situation allowed no room for selfish ideas. He had to restrain his greed and complete the mission quickly.
Imdiately, he opened the five pill bottles, took out a vial of liquid from his robes, and poured it into each one. As he did so, a sinister smile spread across his face.
"What a joke, Dragon Gate! From today onward, you’ll all get a taste of suffering! How dare you offend ? I’ll make you pay the price!"
Once the liquid entered the pill bottles, it quickly dissolved into the Elixir Pills, leaving no visible trace. After finishing, Zhang Cangsong’s lips curled into a smirk. He then commanded Qi Yuanchen to put the five bottles back into his Storage Ring. Following that, Zhang Cangsong snapped his fingers in front of Qi Yuanchen’s face.
Qi Yuanchen’s body shuddered, and he collapsed feebly to the ground. Zhang Cangsong kicked him onto the bed and then slipped out of the room. The entire act was carried out in absolute secrecy. Now, he just had to wait until tomorrow to watch the show.
With his task complete, Zhang Cangsong left Dragon Gate and headed straight for the Baiyue Sect. Upon arriving, he t Han Zongwei and Liang Tianhao. A sycophantic smile imdiately appeared on his face as he greeted them respectfully, "Brother Han! Senior Brother Liang!"
Han Zongwei glanced at him and asked nonchalantly, "How did the plan go?"
"Senior Brothers, rest assured, I have just perfectly executed the plan!" Zhang Cangsong boasted proudly. "Now we just have to wait quietly. Tomorrow, there will definitely be a good show to watch."
"Were there any mistakes?" Liang Tianhao asked, his brow furrowed as he scanned Zhang Cangsong.
Feeling Liang Tianhao’s chilling gaze, Zhang Cangsong’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly shook his head. "N-No... You can relax. I acted at the perfect mont. No one discovered anything."
Hearing this, Liang Tianhao finally nodded. "Well done," he said. "If tomorrow goes according to plan, you can join our Baiyue Sect."
Zhang Cangsong’s heart leaped with joy. He imdiately nodded at both Liang Tianhao and Han Zongwei, saying gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brothers, for giving
this chance! Once I join the Baiyue Sect, I promise to fulfill my mission! I will not disappoint you!"
Liang Tianhao gave a faint smile, then turned to Han Zongwei. "Notify the dicine Pavilion. Tell them to be ready for tomorrow."
Han Zongwei chuckled and readily agreed, "No problem!"
With that, Han Zongwei left the Baiyue Sect and headed directly toward the dicine Pavilion.
Zhang Cangsong was ecstatic. The prospect of joining the Baiyue Sect made his heart pound with excitent. After enduring for so many days, I can finally see the light of day. Those Dragon Gate mbers who bullied ... just you wait! Soon, I’ll trample every single one of you under my foot, and you’ll never get back up again.
「anwhile,」
Qi Yuanchen woke from his stupor. He opened his eyes and found himself lying on his bed, completely baffled. Strange, how did I end up here?
He tried to recall what had happened, but a throbbing pain shot through his head. He rembered entering the room and then running into Zhang Cangsong, but after that, his mory was a complete blank. He rubbed his temples. Suddenly, a sharp, burning pain flared on his face. What’s going on?
Qi Yuanchen felt that sothing was terribly wrong, and his brows knitted tightly. He got up from the bed.
CRACK!
A crisp crack echoed from his bones, and a sharp pain shot through his body. He gritted his teeth, his face contorting in anguish. What the hell is going on?
Qi Yuanchen knew this was no simple matter. There was no reason for him to just be lying in bed. Could all of this have been Zhang Cangsong’s secret sche?!
At that thought, sothing else occurred to him. He quickly opened his palm and took the five pill bottles from his Storage Ring. When he saw they were all still there, he let out a small sigh of relief. Thank goodness, they’re still here! At the sa ti, he also felt he might have been overly suspicious. Without my Battle qi, no one else could possibly open this Storage Ring! Since the ring is here, everything must be fine.
Nevertheless, he still wanted to find out what had just happened. He quickly got out of bed and walked outside, determined to find Zhang Cangsong and demand an explanation.
Just then, Long Chen returned.
"Sect Leader!"
Upon seeing Long Chen, the Dragon Gate mbers greeted him.
Long Chen gave a slight nod in acknowledgnt. As he continued forward, he saw Qi Yuanchen frantically looking for Zhang Cangsong. The scene piqued his curiosity. He approached Qi Yuanchen. "What are you looking for him for?"
Hearing the voice, Qi Yuanchen turned around. When he saw it was Long Chen, he hurried over and cupped his fist. "Sect Leader."
"What happened to your face?" Long Chen asked, noticing Qi Yuanchen’s red, swollen cheek. "Who hit you?"
"I’m not exactly sure what happened, but it must have been that bastard Zhang Cangsong!" Qi Yuanchen shook his head, gritting his teeth. "I’m looking for him to settle the score! That scoundrel has disappeared sowhere. I’ve searched all over Dragon Gate and haven’t seen a trace of him."
"Hmm?" Long Chen caught that. "You’re not sure what happened?"
"Yeah," Qi Yuanchen nodded. "It’s strange. The last thing I rember, I was standing inside my room. The next thing I know, I wake up inexplicably lying in bed with these two slap marks on my face. He must have done this in secret to get back at !"
Long Chen’s brow furrowed slightly. Just as he was about to ask for more details, Long Xin’s voice called out, "Brother!"
Long Chen turned to see Long Xin and Tang Le walking toward him. He broke into a small smile.
"Brother, what did the Third Elder want with you?" Long Xin asked.
"Nothing much," Long Chen smiled. "She just reminded us to keep a low profile within the sect and gave us so simple cultivation advice."
"Oh," Long Xin nodded. "I see. I thought it was sothing serious."
Long Chen shook his head with a laugh. "Silly girl, what serious issues could we possibly have here in the sect?"
At that mont, Qi Yuanchen spoke up. "Sect Leader, you all chat. I just heard that scoundrel went out, so I’m going to keep looking for him. Besides, I also need to trade these Elixir Pills for so resources."
Before Long Chen could reply, Qi Yuanchen had already rushed off.
Long Xin glanced after him. "Why is he in such a hurry? Who is he looking for?"
"He got slapped twice," Long Chen explained. "He’s trying to find Zhang Cangsong to settle the score."
"It’s that troublemaker again," Long Xin said with contempt. "That shaless pest. It’s annoying just seeing him lurking around here all day."
"Forget about that guy," Tang Le interjected. "Co on, I’ve cooked today and prepared a lot of delicious food for you. Let’s go try it."
Long Xin thought no more of it. Taking Long Chen’s hand, she started walking inside. "Brother, I never would’ve guessed. Not only is Tang Le a big eater, but his cooking skills are also quite impressive. Let’s hurry and have a taste."
"Alright," Long Chen smiled and followed them inside.
「The next day.」
Long Chen was cultivating as usual when a sudden commotion from outside shattered the morning tranquility. His brow furrowed. This was usually the quietest ti of day. Why was it so noisy?
Thinking this, he activated his Divine Demon Eye, and the scene outside ca into view. A crowd of people was gathered outside Dragon Gate. They were agitated and furious.
"This crappy Dragon Gate!"
"You have so nerve, trying to scam us out of our resources with these Fake Elixir Pills!"
"Get out here and give us an explanation!"
About thirty people were surrounding the entrance, condemning Dragon Gate and demanding justice. The mbers of Dragon Gate were outside, trying to block them from forcing their way in.
"Everyone, please calm down!" Qi Yuanchen said hastily. "There must be a misunderstanding! Please, calm down first. We can talk this through."
"Calm down my ass! You’re the unprincipled rchant! You were the one who gave us these Elixir Pills yesterday! If you don’t give us an explanation today, your Dragon Gate can cease to exist!"
More than thirty pairs of eyes locked onto Qi Yuanchen, filled with seething rage. Ignoring the attempts of the Dragon Gate mbers to hold them back, they surged forward as one! The nacing air about them made it seem as if they were about to level Dragon Gate to the ground
