Medical Sage

Don’t underestimate Red Lion Daoist and Lau Pang’s current stance, because, given their level and status, though it’s not as if their words are set in stone, many times it’s tied to their reputation and dignity!

If they regret it later, the gossip alone from the outside would definitely leave them overwhelmed.

Especially for someone like Red Lion Daoist, who is the master of a cave; if his words are treated like a joke, his reputation would likely plummet and it affects his dignity.

At their level, as masters of caves spanning hundreds of miles, the first thing they consider is life and death, and the second is face. If no one gives them respect, then what’s the point of surviving? Who would care about them?

And the same goes for Lau Pang’s words. As one of the five guardian elders of Cloud Dragon Mountain, how can the words he personally uttered be taken lightly?

So, although Chen Fei set this trap seemingly absurd at first glance, it actually has a certain binding power upon closer inspection.

At least, even if it’s not ideal, he can still try to buy some time which is beneficial!

As long as he can buy some time, not to mention the peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer, even a Foundation Establishment True Person Realm expert from Cloud Dragon Mountain wouldn’t faze him.

Because he has strategies and methods to deal with them. But he still needs a bit of time.

”Alright, alright... We know each other through fighting. Now that we’re done, let’s continue enjoying. Isn’t today the Cave Master of Red Lion Cave’s birthday feast?” Seeing Lau Pang temporarily forced to relent, Chen Fei squinted his eyes and smiled.

With these words, not only Lau Pang, but even those nearby instinctively glanced at the surrounding ruins, their faces uniformly turning odd and abnormal.

As for Red Lion Daoist, his face turned extremely gloomy and blue.

This is not a feast, it’s a disaster! And what hasn’t been ruined? This isn’t a birthday feast; it’s more like a funeral.

And Lau Pang almost swore upon hearing this. But given the current situation, knowing Chen Fei’s prowess, he didn’t have the courage to confront him.

Thus he found a lousy excuse, barely audible, and along with Zhou Long, left in a hurry.

The rest of the crowd, seeing this spectacle, looked at one another. Who would still have the heart to stay? Mainly, no one wanted to be passively dragged into such a mess! So they all found reasons to leave.

In such times, no matter who wins or loses, staying far away is the right choice! Avoid trouble and don’t self-inflict problems.

So those people left as if fleeing from a calamity, some even dared not glance at Chen Fei, departing swiftly.

Only Green Snake Elder, as he left, seemed a bit hesitant, deeply glancing at Chen Fei, remained silent for a moment before slowly leaving, pondering deeply despite not speaking his thoughts.

Even the host of the day, Elder Shouxing, looking at the once bustling hall of Red Lion Cave now turned into hollow ruins, with people leaving soundlessly, had no heart left to express any anger, just wished Chen Fei this calamity would leave, the further the better!

Because afterward, he’s bound to be stressed out. With the situation becoming like this, it’s impossible for Cloud Dragon Mountain to just let it go! In one’s dreams maybe, but when that time comes, how will he handle the situation and align himself? It’s worrying, truly worrying.

...

Meanwhile, a few hundred miles away at the gate of the current Enlightened Deity Cave Mansion, which was once Primordial Golden Toad Cave, two figures slowly emerged from the nearby mountain path, stepping towards this place.

Both figures were clad in robes that could cover their heads, their bodies emitting faint fierce light, flowing continuously and forming a contiguous scene. Even without deliberate exhibition, the casual aura they emitted was enough to invoke feelings of oppression and dread.

This evidently signified that the two were anything but ordinary, possessing astounding strength and power.

”Hmm, we’ve reached the place.”

Then, one of the figures gradually lifted the hood covering his head, revealing a face slightly different from ordinary human cultivators, with a grayish-blue complexion, a large mouth, and two crystal-clear long whiskers on the lips.

He gazed far into the direction of the entrance of the Enlightened Deity Cave Mansion, eyes somewhat complex and expectant, murmuring to himself, ”Hope the Master of Enlightened Deity Cave doesn’t disappoint us.”

”...Cough, cough, cough... Cang Kun, it’s useless, this is the poison of Thousand Cranes Demon, and it’s a Foundation Establishment True Person Realm Thousand Cranes Demon... let alone an unknown person, cough, even if he truly possesses the strength of a Third-Level Alchemist, what difference does it make? Cough, cough... Do you really think a Third-Level Alchemist can cure Thousand Cranes Demon’s poison? Cough, cough, cough...”

Another figure shakily lifted the hood covering his head, revealing a face with a very large cheek in deep blue, distinct from humans, with huge eye sockets, which should give a feeling of intensity and intimidation.

Yet now, those eyes were covered with a murky white film, appearing dead and lifeless.

”Enough, Blue Whale, haven’t we agreed earlier? Don’t speak discouraging words now...” The elder called ’Cang Kun’, with a wide mouth and crystal-clear long whiskers on his lips, immediately scolded, face stern.

Before he could finish speaking, a harsh shout echoed from a distance, interrupting his words.

”Who’s there? This is a restricted area of the Gate of Enlightened Deity Cave; trespassers are prohibited!” A Qi Refining Seventh Layer cultivator from Enlightened Deity Cave, wearing bronze armor, directly led a group to surround them, saying unceremoniously, coldly gazing at Cang Kun and Blue Whale.

”Hmph!”

At this sight, the elder with an extremely large cheek in deep blue immediately cast an icy, heavy snort.

Instantly, the pressure, akin to a massive hammer striking the heart, ferociously showered upon the Qi Refining Seventh Layer Enlightened Deity Cave cultivator, causing his face to drastically change, blood draining rapidly, his pupils starting to tremble in extreme fear.

At this moment, he felt as if a supreme monstrous figure was towering over him, the pressure and imposing presence were almost breaking him, his pupils about to fade away.

Though he possessed cultivation at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, currently, he was powerless and frightened to such an extent! The weaker subordinates behind him facing such terrifying aura would undoubtedly react in a more intense manner.

In an instant, the subordinates behind that Qi Refining Seventh Layer cultivator stumbled and fell, their bodies trembling, collapsing on the ground, eyes filled with extreme shock and terror.
