Human Base!
Brandon Jiang was dumbfounded.
After Yan Baobao's death, this thing actually ca back.
He clearly rembered that the Human Base was definitely sent out.
But now, it was lying intact in his storage bag.
Based on this, Brandon concluded that either he was hallucinating, or he had lost a segnt of his mory.
A hallucination would an he never sent out the Human Base at all.
Losing mory would an he forgot how he retrieved the Human Base from Yan Baobao's storage bag.
Both hallucination and mory loss were possible.
But the white-robed disciples of Purple Lotus Peak had all seen him and Yan Baobao talking intimately, proving that he did indeed bribe Yan Baobao successfully with the Human Base, and it wasn't a hallucination.
So, only the second possibility remained.
Like Tong Ya, he had lost a segnt of his mory.
Although he wasn't sure how much mory he had lost, the reality was definitely not as he rembered, where he punched the Villain of the Blood Sea and imdiately ran away.
If that were the case, when did he get the Human Base in his possession?
After coming to this conclusion, Brandon gave a bitter smile.
It seed he was no different from Tong Ya, both unaware of the truth.
The so-called Villain of the Blood Sea was probably just a hallucination.
Regardless of what the truth was, whether it was good or bad for him, it wasn't sothing he could uncover at his current level.
All he could do was make good use of the ownerless spiritual energy that had descended upon him like a windfall, and cultivate quickly to establish a foothold in this perilous and mysterious cultivation world!
If he dared to slack off, he would be destroyed like dry rot when the real crisis ca.
Thinking of this, Brandon's desire for strength grew even more urgent.
And strength was tied to resources.
To get resources, he had to climb up the power network of the Heavenly Lotus Sect. Patricia Qing and Sandra Ye were the thickest ropes he could grab!
In the following ti, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix continuously investigated the cause of Yan Baobao's death, not sparing any inch of Purple Lotus Peak or any person.
After thoroughly investigating everyone and confirming there were no issues, she ordered everyone to leave, leaving herself alone to investigate slowly.
Brandon had to leave Purple Lotus Peak as well.
After being tossed around by Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix for so long, it was still just morning.
The day was still long.
Brandon naturally couldn't let himself be idle; he had to progress quickly.
So, after having a al at the Green Leaf Peak cafeteria, he didn't even go ho and headed straight to Green Lotus Peak, to Patricia Qing's residence.
Arriving at the entrance of Patricia Qing's alchemy hall, Brandon found the door tightly shut.
The two children guarding the door were very surprised:
"Brandon, why are you so late?"
Apparently, they didn't know about the task Patricia Qing had given Brandon.
Brandon didn't dare to put on airs and smiled at the two children:
"Sothing ca up, please help open the door."
The two children had a good impression of Brandon, and seeing his look of sympathy, they shook their heads and said:
"The master hates tardiness the most. You better pray for yourself."
With that, the two children each pushed a door open.
Creak—
With a sharp sound, the door opened.
The commotion at the door imdiately drew the attention of everyone inside, including Patricia Qing.
Their expressions were filled with astonishnt.
The white-robed disciples were astonished that Brandon was so late, while Chu Jun and Patricia Qing were astonished that Brandon appeared at this mont.
Without looking sideways, Brandon bowed deeply to Patricia Qing, who was tending to the alchemy furnace:
"Junior Sister Brandon is late, please forgive , Senior Sister Patricia."
As soon as he said this, everyone reacted. So looked at Brandon with pity, while others had a mocking expression.
Only Chu Jun was filled with worry.
And Ashley Taibai seed to have noticed that he had broken through to the second level of Qi Refining, so she was shocked!
Boom—
Patricia Qing suddenly stood up, walked coldly to Brandon, and sternly asked:
"Brandon, you should be with Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix at this ti, why did you suddenly co back? Did you cause trouble?"
Brandon first bowed, then shook his head with a sorrowful expression:
"No, it's just that sothing big happened at Purple Lotus Peak just now, and Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix gave everyone there a day off."
"And that big event has sothing to do with ."
Hearing Brandon's words, the white-robed disciples were in an uproar.
Brandon wasn't late; he was chosen to serve Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix?!
This... Senior Sister Patricia Qing must think highly of her.
But then, they noticed the big event Brandon ntioned that happened at Purple Lotus Peak.
What kind of big event could shake the entire Purple Lotus Peak? And it was related to Brandon!
Hearing that Brandon hadn't caused trouble, Patricia Qing's expression softened a lot, and she asked:
"What happened with Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix?"
Brandon said sadly:
"Sister Yan Baobao... was killed, and the murderer has not been found yet."
"What!"
Patricia Qing, Chu Jun, and all the white-robed disciples who knew Yan Baobao were shocked!
Yan Baobao was dead!
How could that be!
That was Yan Baobao, the confidant of Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix, whose status among all the peak Qi Refining disciples was unparalleled, almost guaranteed a spot as a Foundation Establishnt disciple!
And she was dead?!
And in Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's stronghold, Purple Lotus Peak?!
And the murderer hadn't been found?!
This was too crazy; everyone's first reaction was disbelief!
But, would Brandon lie about sothing that could be easily verified?
The most shocked was Chu Jun.
She knew that Brandon had gone to see Yan Baobao at night and had bribed her with the Human Base she had given him.
But now Yan Baobao was dead, and Brandon would face countless suspicions and pressures.
The most terrifying of which was the wrath of Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix. What should they do?
Chu Jun was extrely flustered. Facing a great cultivator at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishnt, she couldn't help at all.
Patricia Qing didn't know these details, so she didn't think in that direction. Instead, she asked curiously:
"Junior Sister Brandon, what does Yan Baobao's death have to do with you?"
A re second-level Qi Refining cultivator couldn't possibly influence the life and death of a peak Qi Refining cultivator!
Tears welled up in Brandon's eyes, and he said sorrowfully:
"When I went to Purple Lotus Peak today, I first visited Sister Yan Baobao and found out that she was my closest friend and sister from my mortal days."
"After we recognized each other, we were very happy. Sister Yan said she would take around Purple Lotus Peak. But while we were walking and chatting, she was suddenly killed by a villain! Boohoo!"
"Boohoo, we had only just reunited for a few hours!"
Patricia Qing, Chu Jun, and all the white-robed disciples were stunned again!
Brandon had such a big background! She had such strong connections!!
Chu Jun felt sorry for Brandon. They had just reunited with their sister, only to face life and death separation.
But fortunately, they were sisters; otherwise, Brandon would have been killed by the furious Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix.
Patricia Qing, on the other hand, had a different thought and asked with a hint of excitent:
"Junior Sister Brandon, after Yan Baobao's death, did Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix make things difficult for you?"
