Chapter 41: Do You Dare to Drug Me!
If this punch lands, even with Yi Qianmo’s Chaotic Sword Body skill, he would probably still meet his death! This is a monster at the Foundation Establishment Stage, a demonic cultivator, with power far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.
But this punch stopped just inches away from Yi Qianmo’s abdomen; he could even feel the terrifying blood curse brushing against his face.
"How did you know that my spiritual power is out of balance?"
The man in black asked coldly.
After coughing a few times, Yi Qianmo straightened up and said, "Let’s go inside; this is not a place for talking."
The man in black glanced at the door of the secret room and strode inside.
Moments later, Yi Qianmo and the man in black sat opposite each other in the secret room.
"Tell me, what is going on?"
The man in black said coldly, "If you dare to deceive me, I will first destroy you, and then kill your whole family!"
At that moment, Yi Qianmo finally realized that this person in front of him was the master of the Roaring Bear Valley cave. Since he had come, the tricks he had left behind when he left were surely discovered.
He also knew that this demonic cultivator, who had just advanced from Qi Refining Stage to Foundation Establishment Stage, could definitely put his words into action.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
Yi Qianmo said, "You rush into my home without even telling me your name?"
"Stop playing games with me!"
The man in black said, "Even if you don’t speak, I have a thousand ways to make you talk."
"Then you can try!"
Yi Qianmo stared at him coldly, showing no fear in his eyes. The memories of his ancestors from a hundred years were not something to be taken lightly.
In the first sixty years of his ancestors, he faced as many storms as he does now; these memories are now etched in his mind, as if he experienced them himself.
Rather than saying that the most important thing in the ancestral heritage is the Sword Pill, it is more accurate to say it is the memories of his ancestors.
Unfortunately, the inheritance of memories is very limited, and with his current abilities, he cannot accept them. Otherwise, he would have a thousand ways to defeat this demonic cultivator before him.
The man in black trembled slightly. In that moment, Yi Qianmo sensed several threats; he seemed calm, but cold sweat was already forming on his body.
Although he has the memories of his ancestors, his strength does not match theirs. It is like walking a tightrope over a volcano; a small mistake could lead to disaster.
"Zhou Lanting!"
The man in black said unwillingly.
"A woman?"
Yi Qianmo stared at him, slightly surprised.
"You are the woman!!!"
Zhou Lanting said angrily.
"Oh, you are a man?"
Yi Qianmo was even more surprised than before.
"If you keep talking about my name, I’ll kill you right now!"
Zhou Lanting said fiercely.
"Oh, I see. Did the person who gave you that name have a strange sense of humor? A man with a woman’s name…"
Before he could finish, a chill ran through Yi Qianmo’s body, and he immediately shut his mouth, saying, "Alright, let’s talk about serious matters."
Clearing his throat, Yi Qianmo continued, "I added some ingredients to your Pill Furnace."
"You poisoned me!!!!"
Zhou Lanting immediately felt angry, but she quickly calmed down, "No, with your skills, there’s no way you could hide any poison from me. Even if it were thrown into the Pill Furnace, the fire inside would burn it away. Moreover… if you truly had put any poison, it would change the nature of the medicine, and the whole pill would be ruined. So…"
"So, I didn’t put any poison. I only added a special spiritual herb, which will not change the nature of the pill. However… once this herb is mixed in, the person who consumes the pill will have unstable energy and an imbalance in their spiritual power!"
Yi Qianmo smiled and said, "If there’s no way to solve this, soon you will have Qi deviation. And if you don’t break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, I will have no way to help you. I know that when you find someone has entered your cave and there’s no one inside, you will definitely take the Building Foundation Pill first to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage so you can face any possible enemies with your strongest power!"
At this point, Yi Qianmo felt proud, "But you didn’t think that the person who entered your cave is actually weaker than you."
"Hand over the solution!"
Zhou Lanting stood up, and her spiritual power gathered into a terrifying aura of blood curses, pressing towards Yi Qianmo.
"Don’t be rash."
Yi Qianmo said, "If you kill me, you will really have Qi deviation."
Zhou Lanting stared at him coldly and stayed silent for a long time before she put away the dark energy around her, "I told you, I have a thousand ways to make you talk."
"Actually, we don’t have any deep hatred between us. You practice your magic, and I follow my own path. I put some medicine in your Pill Furnace only as a precaution, just like in this situation."
Yi Qianmo said with a smile, "If I really wanted to take your life, I could add a different kind of potion that works much faster, so… you wouldn’t even get close to me."
"You, a small nobody in Green Cloud City, what power do you have to take my life?"
Zhou Lanting said irritably.
"But this small nobody got into your cave, poisoned you, and almost caused you to have Qi deviation!"
Yi Qianmo said, "Since I can delay your Qi deviation, I can also cause your spiritual power to explode immediately!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Lanting’s body shook slightly. Before, she had not taken Yi Qianmo seriously and thought he was just a petty thief.
But now she changed her mind; the boy in front of her was far more frightening than she had imagined, and it sparked her interest even more.
"How do you understand the nature of medicines?"
Zhou Lanting asked.
"It’s a family tradition."
Yi Qianmo calmly replied.
"…"
Although Yi Qianmo could not see Zhou Lanting’s expression, he could feel her gaze. At that moment, his face must have looked just like Su Muyu’s when she heard those three words.
Seeing the blood curse energy rising from him again, Yi Qianmo quickly continued, "You’ve heard the rumors outside, right? I just killed a disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect and in half a month, I went from being a nobody to a celestial being. All of this happened because…"
"You’re talking nonsense! You became a celestial being not because you can make elixirs, but because you stole my Qi Nourishing Pill!"
Zhou Lanting shouted.
"Hehe, that’s one of the reasons…" Yi Qianmo smiled awkwardly. "Otherwise, do you think Su Muyu would have chosen me as her teacher?"
"Su Muyu?"
Zhou Lanting exclaimed in surprise, "Are you talking about Su Muyu, King Yan’s sister, from Tianyuan Academy?"
"That’s right, she is at my house."
Yi Qianmo said with a smile.
Zhou Lanting did not go to find her; she just squinted her eyes and confirmed Su Muyu’s location.
Looking at Yi Qianmo again, his expression had completely changed; besides surprise, there was more confusion.
"You must be wondering how I did it?"
Yi Qianmo chuckled, "I already told you, my ancestor was an advanced Pill Master, a very skilled one, and I understand pharmacology, I am at least as good as you!"
"What do you really want?"
Zhou Lanting asked.
"Come with me to Green Dragon Mountain!"
Yi Qianmo said, "As for the unbalanced spiritual power in you, I will find a way to help you control it."
"Green Dragon Mountain!!!"
Zhou Lanting looked at him and said, "Right now, Green Dragon Mountain is full of those righteous leaders; you want to use them to your advantage, don’t you!"
"No, I am going to fight those righteous leaders."
Yi Qianmo said with a serious face, "If they meddle in my affairs!"
