In his previous life, during the business war with the Chen Family, the Jiang Family was shroud in defeatism. It repeatedly conceded, not daring to deploy troops in such a way as to leave no room for maneuver or route for escape so that the soldiers will fight for their dear lives out of desperation and eventually win the battle. That was why it fell into a disadvantageous position, being defeated by the Chen Family in one strike.Jiang Tian wanted to tell Jiang Lin that she had to not retreat at all and advance bravely in order to defeat the enemy.
"Jiang Tian, this is a gathering of the martial arts world, you do not have the qualifications to partic.i.p.ate! Get out!"
Seeing Jiang Tian walking over, Chen Bo spoke in a disdainful tone: "What are you trying to do? Could it be that you want to force your way in? Humph, you are just a straw waste, you better consider it carefully, this is Shennong"s territory. With just one word, you will die! "
"Hmph, Shennong is nothing! I only come to the gathering to give you guys face! "
Jiang Tian sneered:
"You want me to die? You"re so arrogant. Even your Sect Leader don"t dare to speak to me like that! "
"You, who are like an Ant, can only talk to me while lying down or kneeling. Since you do not know what position you are in, then I will let you know! "
Jiang Tian laughed in disdain as he walked over. Suddenly, he raised his hand and slapped Chen Bo"s face.
"Whiz!"
Chen Bo flew out like a kite with its string cut.
Blood spurted out of his mouth and his teeth flew everywhere. He fell down like a dead dog, with his face turning purple and swollen like a steamed bun.
Chen Bo held his head and shook it around for a long time before he could realize that he had been beaten up. Thus, he got furious.
He stood up, pointed at Jiang Tian and shouted angrily: "Jiang Tian, you are a waste straw, you dare to hit me! I am an outer disciple of the Shennong! "
He could not believe that Jiang Tian actually attacked him.
The Jiang Family was already in the decline and no longer held any glory. While in the Jiang Family, Jiang Tian was just a good-for-nothing who only knew how to cause trouble. But he was the Chen Family"s young master, and he was even now a disciple of the Shennong. In the eyes of ordinary people, he was as lofty as a G.o.d!
But Jiang Tian actually dared to hit him, and there were so many guards around. This was too unjustified!
"You are just a service disciple!"
Jiang Tian"s expression remained indifferent, as if slapping him was swatting a fly, and he corrected him mercilessly.
"Jiang Tian, shut up! Hurry up and apologize to Chen Shao! "
Seeing this, Jiang Lin"s heart was filled with despair. She was so anxious that she almost cried.
She thought to herself that Jiang Tian had really ruined her life.
He had beaten Chen Bo, so she knew that there was no hope for her to enter the gathering. He might even torture her to death.
"How does a mere Ant can ask me to apologize to him?"
Jiang Tian"s face was at ease as he said slowly: "If I need to kill him, it is as easy as killing a chicken!"
"Jiang Tian, don"t you dare be so arrogant!"
"You are courting death. You guys, beat this brat to death! "
Chen Bo was so angry that his entire body was shivering, and his eyes were cold enough to kill. He waved his hand and shouted.
In the Shennong, his position could not be compared with Lady Man Ge, but in the outer sect, he still had some influence, and was in charge of guarding the outer circle of this gathering.
"Yes sir!"
Hearing that, seven to eight robust men with surging Qi immediately rushed towards Jiang Tian, rubbing their fists and wiping their palms, and wanted to make a move.
"Jiang Tian, quickly run with me. I have heard that they are Fighters who have committed innumerable murders!"
Jiang Lin was frightened out of her wits. Her beautiful face was pale white and her delicate body was trembling. She grabbed Jiang Tian and begged him.
"Chen Bo, do you want to die? How dare you be disrespectful to Apothecary Jiang Da!"
Right at this moment, accompanied by a delicate shout, Shen Mange walked over quickly. Her face was as cold as frost with a murderous stare.
"Eldest Senior Sister, he tried to barge into the gathering today, and even hit me. I definitely need to stop him!"
Chen Bo wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He walked up to her and explained with an anxious face:
"You must have been deceived by him! He is totally a waste material, and he doesn"t even know the medicinal properties of the basic herbs. If he can"t even open the simplest prescriptions, how could he know how to refine pills! "
"What do you know?"
Lady Man Ge raised her hand and slapped Chen Bo"s face, causing blood to spurt out from his nose, and angrily rebuked: "How can I not know Apothecary Jiang Da"s pill refining level?"
"What kind of trick did this guy use to trick Eldest Senior Sister into treating him like a G.o.d?"
Chen Bo covered his face and glared at Jiang Tian with a face full of hatred. He gritted his teeth so hard that they almost broke, nourishing anger in his heart.
"You still dare to stare!"
Lady Man Ge"s beautiful face turned cold. She pointed at Chen Bo and bellowed: "Do you want to die? If you dare to be disrespectful to Apothecary Jiang Da again. Instead of expelling you from the sect, I will kill you! "
"Yes, Senior Sister! I don"t dare anymore! "
Chen Bo trembled in fear, his face was pale as he bowed to her and answered.
This Eldest Senior Sister looked gentle and virtuous, but she was actually extremely wicked and merciless. Countless disciples who didn"t observe the sect"s rules had been brutally executed by her.
"Kneel!"
Lady Man Ge"s reproach scared Chen Bo to immediately kneel to the ground, trembling with extreme fear.
When she was facing Jiang Tian, Lady Man Ge changed into a smiling face. She respectfully bowed to him and said:
"Apothecary Jiang Da, I discussed it with Elder Zhang yesterday. Only if you partic.i.p.ate in the Pill Exchange, would it truly be a top-level gathering."
"I originally wanted to send you an invitation letter, but who would have thought that you would actually come in person. Man Ge apologizes for failing to welcome you, I hope that you can forgive me!"
"Why does Eldest Senior Sister Man Ge have such respect for Jiang Tian, a total straw waste?"
"Moreover, he doesn"t know anything about medicine, how could he become Master Jiang?"
Seeing that, Jiang Lin"s heart was full of mixed feelings, she was dumbstruck, and petrified on the spot. She couldn"t believe it.
"Hm! It seems like we are on the same page! "
Jiang Tian gave Shen Mange a glance. His expression was extremely calm, and then stepped onto the platform.
Jiang Lin hesitated for a moment before following Jiang Tian. The surrounding people all backed off. No one dared to stop them!
At this time, on the high platform, centered around the huge round table at the center of the platform, there were many stone chairs. Around twenty odd Fighters had already gathered there.
Unlike the gathering last night, there was not a single mortal person here. They were all Fighters from various great clans and sects.
"Why are there so few people at this gathering?" Qiu Gong moved closer to Jiang Tian"s ear, and said with a strange expression.
"Who cares so much …" Jiang Tian snorted coldly. There was a disdain flashing past his eyes.
"Hehe, Apothecary Jiang Da should arrive so soon!"
Seeing that Jiang Tian had arrived, Hong Tianzhao stood up, with a face full of happiness. He cupped his fists as he walked over.
Tang Qianbian, Niu Bowen and the other Fighters also stood up and greeted Jiang Tian warmly.
"Coming uninvited, I"ve made everyone wait for a long time!"
Jiang Tian directly sat down on a stone chair, crossed his legs, and casually smiled: "Just now, Ms. Man Ge said that she wanted to give me an invitation letter. Do you prepare me some Spirit Gra.s.s?"
"Are they all Fighters? Anyone"s aura is strong and imposing. Even grandfather can"t compare with them. "
Jiang Lin"s heart immediately filled with apprehension, as if she was a small bird looking for protection. She obediently stood behind Jiang Tian like a maid.
"Hehe, of course."
Lady Man Ge sat in the adjacent seat next to Jiang Tian, and handed over a cup of tewater. She smiled sweetly and said: "Last night, after thinking about it again and again, we still couldn"t abandon the Exquisite Medicinal Pills that were refined by you, Master Jiang.
"Master Jiang, please take a look!"
An elder of the Shennong carefully opened a big brocade box on the stone table.
"Hmm?"
Seeing a cauldron with a candle in the middle of the stone table, Jiang Tian"s heart was slightly moved.
But his face was still indifferent. His eyes swept across the brocade box, and his heart immediately skipped a beat.
How strange!
Dragon Anemone, Snow Tea, Purple Pine, Xia Bing, IIex chinensis Sims … These herbs were not rare and they were only ten-odd years old.
However, they were all overflowing with a strong sense of Greenwood"s aura, which instantly turned these ordinary herbs into high quality ones.
Greenwood, also known as green spirit wood, could only sprout after fifty years, grow an inch taller after a hundred years, and would only be used as medicinal materials after a thousand years.
A thousand years later, the green spirit wood, which contained pure Greenwood spiritual energy, was rarely seen even in the Outer Realm. It was precisely the wood type materials needed to set up the Spiritual Concentration Array.
"These medicinal herbs are pretty good! I am willing to use twenty Pills to exchange for them! " Jiang Tian nodded slightly.
"Apothecary Jiang Da can see what others cannot see. These medicinal ingredients have all been collected by our sect for many years!"
Lady Man Ge sighed lightly, then laughed: "Mr. Jiang, then let"s begin the trade!"
She immediately reported the names and the numbers of the Pills.
Jiang Tian received the package from Qiu Gong and took out a few porcelain bottles, pouring them all out one by one and handing them over to her.
"All right! Since everyone is busy with work, I"ll take my leave first! " Jiang Tian lifted the brocade box and stood up.
"Apothecary Jiang Da, is there a need to rush? Why don"t we chat for a while, and then you can come to my house and stay for a few days before leaving! "
Hong Tianzhao immediately became anxious and stood up, enthusiastically inviting him.
"Thank you, Patriarch Hong, for your invitation."
Jiang Tian rejected him tactfully, then shook his head and laughed bitterly: "There will be an opportunity when we can meet again. But I have my private matters to attend to, so I have to go!"
"Apothecary Jiang Da, this is the top-grade Cloud Mist Tea harvested from our Shennong"s Cloud Mist Peak. In the ancient times, only imperial kinsmen could drink the tea. Why don"t you and Qiu Gong have a taste before leaving? "
With a face br.i.m.m.i.n.g with happiness, Lady Man Ge looked at him with her beautiful eyes, and said with her sweet voice. She held out the cup to Jiang Tian with both hands.
Seeing how Hong Tianzhao and Man Ge treated Jiang Tian respectfully, Jiang Lin was even more surprised and did not dare to believe it.
Regarding this, Jiang Tian did not reject. He took the cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Tang Linglong also took a sip. Qiu Gong hesitated for a moment, then raised the teacup but he didn"t drink the tea.
Jiang Tian placed the teacup on the round table and turned to leave. He said while laughing, "Alright, everyone, don"t send me off!"
"Jiang Tian, do you still want to leave? Leave behind all your Pills and pill formulas, then I"ll let you live! "
In that moment, Ms. Man Ge"s face suddenly changed. There was no longer any trace of smile on her face and her beautiful eyes were overflowing with coldness as she coldly and mercilessly shouted.
"Jiang Tian, what are they doing?"
Jiang Lin was stunned. She did not expect that Shen Mange who was very hospitable just now should suddenly turn hostile.
"Do they want to rob you?"
Suddenly, she understood something. She could not help but be so frightened that her face became deathly white and her delicate body trembled violently. She pulled Jiang Tian"s Sleeve, as if it was the only way for her to find something to rely on.
The legend had it that these Fighters were like Superman. But she and Jiang Tian were only ordinary people, wouldn"t they be stomped on like Ants by them?
"Haha, are they capable of stealing anything from me?"
Jiang Tian stood there with his hands behind his back. He took a glance at Lady Man Ge and ridiculed them leisurely.
In terms of setting up an a.s.sa.s.sination, poisoning others, plotting in secret and killing others to steal their treasures, Jiang Tian could be considered the founder of these tricks!
They tried to play those tricks on him. It was like showing off in the presence of an expert.
