Chapter 124 - 124:1 Also Know a Thing or Two About Pills



Although they had already arrived at the right location, out of caution, Meng Ruyan didn’t even suggest going straight into the inn this time.

After all, no matter how they looked at it, the inn was very strange.

Not only was the inn well-preserved, but it also looked out of place with the surrounding dilapidated houses.

What made the three of them even more vigilant was that there wasn’t even a single Ghost Warrior nearby.

There were many possible reasons for this.

One was that there could be some kind of array around the inn that could disperse the surrounding Ghost Warriors.

Another possibility was that there was a powerful ghost in the inn.

As a result, the surrounding Ghost Warriors were afraid of the former and did not dare to approach the inn.

As an array master, Lu Yuan did not sense the existence of an array in the surroundings, so he ruled out the first possibility.

That left the other reason, which was there was a powerful ghost in the inn.

As for what this ghost was, no one knew.

Perhaps to show his value, Zhuang Yangbing volunteered himself, saying, “Friends, let me enter first this time.”

Lu Yuan and Meng Ruyan looked at each other and nodded.

They wanted to see what kind of strength Zhuang Yangbing had.

Under their curious gazes, Zhuang Yangbing’s body began to bleed profusely.

Then, he took out a puppet magic instrument.

When his blood qi fused with the doll, the doll came to life and took on Zhuang Yangbing’s appearance in a short time.

[Substitute Puppet]

[Quality: Low-grade magic instrument]

[Description: A special doll refined using a secret technique. It can accommodate a divine soul.]

Looking at Zhuang Yangbing and his substitute puppet, Lu Yuan could not help but comment internally, “A Xueyang Sect cultivator who likes to drink blood, and a substitute puppet. Could it be that you’re a Stand User?”

Zhuang Yangbing did not know what Lu Yuan was thinking.

He controlled this substitute puppet that was at Level 5 of the Foundation Establishment Stage and walked into the inn.

The substitute puppet looked similar to the Paper Men in the King of Hell’s official residence. It did not have the aura of a living person.

Zhuang Yangbing quickly saw the situation inside the inn through his substitute puppet.

There was nothing special about the layout of the inn.

Empty tables were arranged in the hall.

The dusty tables looked as if no one had been here for a long time.

After seeing that there was no useful information to be gleaned from the hall, the substitute puppet began to walk towards the backyard.

Not long after, the substitute puppet heard the sound of someone chopping vegetables coming from inside.

Out of curiosity, the substitute puppet walked towards the direction of the sound.

It was where the kitchen was located.

When the substitute puppet pushed open the door to the kitchen, it saw a huge horse-headed ghost.

The horse-headed ghost, which was about five meters tall, was using its huge machete to chop something on the chopping board.

The substitute puppet took a closer look. The thing that the horse-headed ghost was cutting was a Ghost Warrior.

Even Zhuang Yangbing, who was a devilish cultivator, felt a little uncomfortable at the bloody scene.

After all, although he was a devilish cultivator, he was cautious. He did not want to accumulate too much karma.

As a result, Zhuang Yangbing had never done anything as heinous as other devilish cultivators.

The blood he drank during his cultivation was also the blood of demons.

He could be considered a rare good person in the Xueyang Sect.

After observing the horse-headed ghost for a moment, the puppet turned around and left.

Suddenly, the substitute puppet found that its body was enveloped by a huge shadow.

It turned its head and found that the horse-headed ghost, which was in the courtyard earlier, had actually appeared behind him.

Looking at the horse-headed ghost’s huge body and the large machete dripping with fresh blood in its hand, the puppet’s expression turned ugly.

Outside the inn, Zhuang Yangbing, who had been controlling the substitute puppet with his eyes closed, suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Then, his face turned pale.

“Brother Li, are you alright?”

Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan pretended to be concerned.

Zhuang Yangbing waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

Then, he looked at the two of them and said solemnly, “Brother Chen, Sister Meng, there’s a huge horse-headed ghost in this inn. In terms of strength, I estimate that he’s at Level 8 or 9 of the Foundation Establishment Stage. He’s quite extraordinary. However, with your strength, 1 don’t think this guy can pose a threat to you.”

Zhuang Yangbing suddenly coughed.

Then, he actually spat out two mouthfuls of blood. He seemed to be in a very bad state.

Zhuang Yangbing, who was heavily injured, said embarrassedly, “Friends, I’m sorry. My puppet has been killed by that ghost, and even my divine soul has been affected to a certain extent. I can only leave the two of you to kill that ghost. Regrettably, 1 can’t be of any help.”

“Go on with your story!” Lu Yuan sneered internally as he watched Zhuang Yangbing’s superb acting skills.

It was true that the latter was injured, but judging from the state of his divine soul, it was obvious that he was far from being seriously injured.

He was acting this way because he felt that this inn was dangerous and wanted to use them.

After all, Lu Yuan and Meng Ruyan not only had the advantage in numbers, they were also slightly above Zhuang Yangbing in terms of strength.

If one of them was seriously injured or even crippled by this ghost, it would undoubtedly be favorable for Zhuang Yangbing.

Lu Yuan, who was also a snake, naturally guessed Zhuang Yangbing’s plan.

Hence, he walked forward and grabbed Zhuang Yangbing’s wrist, stopping the latter from walking to the side to heal himself.

Zhuang Yangbing, who was suddenly pulled back, asked in confusion, “Brother Chen, what are you trying to do?”

Lu Yuan looked at him and said with a concerned expression, “Brother Li, I’m not talented, but I also know a thing or two about pills. Since ancient times, concocting pills and healing injuries have always been inseparable. Brother Li, I might be able to help you alleviate your injuries.”

“There’s no need to do so, right?” Zhuang Yangbing’s mouth twitched.

He added, “What I suffered was an injury to my divine soul. It is difficult for ordinary medicinal pills to heal it.”

To his surprise, Lu Yuan replied excitedly, “So, you suffer an injury to your divine soul? That’s a small issue. I have pills here to help your divine soul recover.”

As he said that, Lu Yuan took out a bottle of soul-nourishing pills as Zhuang Yangbing’s revealed an ugly expression.

These soul-nourishing pills were a prescription that Lu Yuan had exchanged from his master, Han Yuanshan, before he left the mountain.

Their function was very simple. They could help a cultivator’s divine soul recover.

They were considered relatively rare medicinal pills.

Zhuang Yangbing did not expect Lu Yuan to see through his plan to retreat and even take out soul-nourishing pills that could heal one’s divine soul.

However, Zhuang Yangbing did not give up and continued, “Brother Chen, my blood qi is also severely depleted. Just consuming the soul-nourishing pills will not suffice…”

Lu Yuan interrupted him, saying, “It’s fine. I still have some blood replenishing pills to help recover your blood qi.”

Zhuang Yangbing argued, “The spiritual energy in my body is in disorder, and my spiritual root has been damaged to a certain extent.”

“What a coincidence. I still have pills to recover spiritual energy and nourish spiritual roots. I’ll give them to you, Brother Li.”

In the end, as Zhuang Yangbing looked at him with a dumbfounded gaze, Lu Yuan took out several bottles of pills and gave them to him.

Zhuang Yangbing could no longer find any excuse.

He looked at the bottles in his hands and could not help but say, “Brother Chen, I didn’t expect you to have such attainments in the art of pill refinement.”

Lu Yuan revealed a sincere smile and said humbly, “I only know a thing or two about pills.”

Looking at Lu Yuan’s innocent smile, Zhuang Yangbing suppressed the urge to beat him up and thanked him with a fake expression, “Thank you, Brother Chen.”

“You’re welcome. Brother Li, don’t worry. Senior Sister Meng and I can wait for you to recover before we go in together.”

Lu Yuan specifically emphasized the last part.

The threat concealed in his tone was self-evident!

Lu Yuan mocked internally, “Little brat, you’re still too inexperienced to play the retreat card with me, the steady Lu Yuan!”
