Chapter 156 – Offended Feng Hai!
Leaving Yan Huanmo resting at the inn, Long Yu went out to have a look at the marketplace.
Now he not only had the neidans, the corpses of beasts and the battles weapons he harvested from the Demon valley to care for, he also had to look after Yan Huanmo since there was no specific cure for a damaged Zhenling ent.i.ty.
In the marketplace of Hun Yin city, many alchemy experts of the alchemy and concocting field used to live and sell their immortality pills.
However, most of these alchemy experts did not have a good temperament as most of them hailed from other countries and sects who had exiled them because of their misdeeds.
Otherwise, they could have lived a settled life in their original countries, they had no need to settle down in Hun Yin city and sell stuff to sustain their own livelihood.
Long Yu wanted to sell the corpse of a beast to some alchemy expert who could utilise it in preparing immortality pills. He wanted to see if any one of them was willing to pay a high price for the corpse.
Soon, Long Yu found a luxurious garret which was said to be occupied by an alchemy expert.
Alchemy experts were usually rich fellows, so the luxurious appearance of this garret was nothing unusual.
Long Yu entered this luxurious garret. A middle aged man who was dressed up like a servant was standing at the door. He gave a slant look to Long Yu and said.
“Boy, it is the residence of alchemist Feng Hai, not a place to be visited by you.”
It seemed that this servant was looking down upon Long Yu.
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and looked towards the man, but soon he discovered that this man was a Zhenling 4th layer powerhouse!
Alchemist Feng Hai must be a very powerful person given that his domestic servant was at Zhenling 4th layer!
Cultivation level of Feng Hai must be much higher, but this was not something to be pondered about because the alchemists were respected not according to their cultivation level but according to their expertise at preparing immortality pills.
“I am here to sell something.”
Long Yu stated his purpose for the visit. If the other party didn’t seem to be interested, he would simply leave the place.
“What could a trivial boy Zhenling 2nd layer sell to an alchemist? Master Feng Hai has no spare time to waste upon people like you!”
The middle aged servant looked at Long Yu with such a disdain as if he was looking at some fly.
Seeing the opposite party behave in such a way, even Long Yu had no interest to stay there, so he turned around to leave with an indifferent expression.
It was the residence of a formidable alchemist and he surely didn’t want to stir up trouble. So even if the opposite party looked down upon him, he did not need to say anything.
After all, he was just a Zhenling 2nd layer expert!
But as soon as he turned around to leave, the servant shouted at him: “Stop! You wanted to visit this place, and now you are leaving so easily?”
“What do you mean?”
Long Yu was standing before the entrance to the garret. He turned around and asked lightly.
“Leave something here and then you can go!”
The middle aged servant said fiercely: “Either it is the thing you wanted to sell or it is some part of you, but Master Feng Hai needed just this kind of material to refine a certain immortality pill.”
Ransom!
Long Yu immediately understood the meaning of the middle aged servant.
Could Master Feng Hai need a part of a martial expert to refine an immortality pill? If that was the case, what exactly did he need?
Hand? Foot? Heart? Dantian?
Long Yu did not know. All he knew was that this Feng Hai and his middle aged servant were not good people!
Perhaps there were a lot of truths yet to be uncovered about the treacheries of martial experts.
This made Long Yu’s eyes flash fiercely.
If the opposite party had not provoked him, he would’ve walked out quietly. But now the opposite party wanted to seize him, and he simply couldn’t just stay there and tolerate!
“Humph!”
Long Yu stepped out of the luxurious garret.
In reality, he didn’t mean to leave. He only wanted to lure the middle aged servant out of the garret!
And as expected by Long Yu, the middle aged servant rushed towards him fiercely in order to chase him down.
“Since you have tried to run away, I have no option left but to forcefully seize your Dantian. I will give it to Master Feng Hai to refine immortality pills!”
The middle aged servant shouted loudly and immediately rushed towards Long Yu at the speed of wind in order to attack him.
Long Yu had already been expecting this, but his opponent of Zhenling 4th layer also had a very strong killing intention!
Certainly, the opposite party wanted to hit Long Yu hard.
“So the very task of this servant is killing people! I just wanted to go inside to sell the corpse of a demon beast but these people want to kill me and seize my Dantian? Now they have done it!”
As soon as Long Yu exited the luxurious garret, he shouted as loudly as he could to attract the attention of other people in the street.
At the same time, his shout caught the attention of several martial experts who were present in the marketplace and all of them were shocked to hear this.
Immediately, those martial experts began to talk about it among themselves.
“Alchemist Feng Hai’s domestic servant robs people?”
“This alchemist Feng Hai is a very arrogant and ruthless man. But sooner or later, his misdeeds will bring him to his demise.”
“This boy is really unfortunate. He entered the garret to sell things, and now he has to run for his life because he is just a Zhenling 2nd layer expert…..”
n.o.body in the entire Hun Yin city dared to meddle in this matter!
Because Feng Hai worked as the chief alchemist for the biggest gang of Hun Yin city, and messing with him meant messing with the largest gang of the city!
The middle aged servant stood there with a look of pride on his face.
He was looking at the back profile of Long Yu as a butcher would look at a lamb.
This boy shouted for help. Now who’s going to help you, poor wretch!
“Little darling, here I come to seize your Dantian!”
The middle aged servant launched towards Long Yu to capture him.
However, what he had not expected was that Long Yu would actually counterattack!
Moreover, this counterattack contained the power of thunder!
Zhentian domain, dry marsh mood, Lunar mood and thunder charm, altogether the strength of four different world principles, erupted simultaneously, with Zhentian Sun appearing at Long Yu’s back, suppressing the opposite party with a ma.s.sive suppression force.
The middle aged servant had never imagined that Long Yu had comprehended four different world principles. His complexion changed as soon as his movements slowed down.
However, a strange excited look reappeared in his eyes soon.
This boy had such an uncommon power within him, so his Dantian would help in refining a very powerful immortality pill. If he could seize this boy’s Dantian and give it to Master Feng Hai, it would definitely fetch him great rewards!
With these thoughts, the middle aged servant went completely frantic.
“Die!”
He shouted loudly, full of fierce killing intention.
However, at this time, nine hidden dragon qi exploded beneath his feet and completely enveloped him immediately.
“Nine hidden dragon fist burst stream, awakening palm samsara!”
The two techniques, when used simultaneously by Long Yu, released a disastrous burst of the power of samsara and dragon qi!
Almost immediately afterwards, the whole body of that middle aged servant came under the influence of the power of samsara. This not only decreased his cultivation level by one layer, but also frightened him to such an extent that he completely lost his mind!
Long Yu had very tactfully played with the psychology of the middle aged servant. While he kept on shouting, asking for help, he had secretly launched his most powerful attacks on the servant. Obviously the man was negligent at that time because he thought Long Yu was running here and there trying to get someone to help him.
Long Yu very tactfully succeeded in catching the enemy off guard!
“Nine hidden dragon burst stream!”
Long Yu had already killed two Zhenling 4th layer powerhouses quite recently, so he was thoroughly familiar with the situation. He knew that the only technique he could use now was nine hidden dragon burst stream, and that no Zhenling 4th layer powerhouse was strong enough to survive the wrath of this attack.
He had to use his strongest attacks. After all, he was fighting an opponent with a cultivation level of two layers above him!
Without using his spiritual level battle weapon – the Qian dragon spear and his nine hidden dragon mark, there was no chance he could kill such a powerful opponent.
If the man was not suppressed at the right time, he could have proved to be very dangerous to Long Yu.
Since the suppression would stay only for a short period of time, Long Yu had to attack with all his might to kill this middle aged servant in one swoop!
The nine hidden dragon qi sprouted from the ground below the man’s feet, completely enveloping him instantly and started corroding his body internally.
The middle aged servant was so frightened that he couldn’t think straight anymore. He kept shouting for help as his body was soon completely corroded by the nine hidden dragon qi. The cries stopped soon and his dried up corpse fell to the ground!
“Time to leave.”
Suddenly, he felt that a number of strong powerhouses were approaching him.
Although he had killed a Zhenling 4th layer powerhouse again, but this didn’t mean that he had enough strength to face numerous Zhenling 4th layer powerhouses all at once!
As soon as he killed the middle aged servant, he hid himself in the crowd.
Next, he sped as fast as he could towards the inn where he had left Yan Huanmo resting, and found that she had already woken up.
“Elder Yan, I have killed a servant of alchemist Feng Hai, and it seems that we have to leave this place as soon as we can.”
Long Yu said very calmly with a dignified look on his face.
“What?”
Yan Huanmo was sitting in her bed with closed eyes to heal her injuries by meditation, but as soon as she heard this, she immediately opened her eyes in bewilderment.
“Let’s go!”
Yan Huanmo was ready to leave.
As soon as she heard that Long Yu had killed the servant of Feng Hai, she understood that staying in Hun Yin city was impossible for both of them now.
Yan Huanmo had no other business to be settled in Hun Yin city. Although her wounds had not yet healed completely, still she could leave with Long Yu.
Taking the advantage of the enemy not reacting quickly, Long Yu took off the Mongolian bronze armour that he had been wearing since the day he arrived in Hun Yin city, and put on grey commoner clothing.
He and Yan Huanmo rushed towards the western gate of Hun Yin city.
When the servant of alchemist Feng Hai was killed by Long Yu, the largest gang of the city had reacted immediately and sent its best detectives to a.s.sess the situation, who had ordered all of the city gates to be closed.
Although it was a trivial matter of the murder of a servant, it was a servant of Feng Hai, and everyone knew how dangerous it was to mess with Feng Hai!
When he would get to know that one of his servants was killed and the murderer had not been caught yet, it would drive him extremely angry and his wrath was something Hun Yin city couldn’t afford.
However, while the city gates were being closed, Long Yu and Yan Huanmo slipped past the gates and were now travelling towards the direction of Tang kingdom.
Since Long Yu had changed his clothes, no one seemed to have recognised him.
Only after a series of investigations could they find out that it was Long Yu who had killed the servant.
He quickly informed Yan Huanmo about what had happened.
Although he couldn’t sell the corpses of beasts and other battle weapons in Hun Yin city, saving his own life was the priority now!
