Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1310: Chapter 1309: The Monopoly of the Medicine Sect

Su Yang looked at Chen Benshuang’s expression and knew that she was still concerned about Xiao Hei.

He smiled and said, ”He’s at the Shen Family Courtyard. He’s just woken up, and he’ll probably need a few days to recover.”

Chen Benshuang let out a sigh of relief and whispered, ”That’s good, that’s good.”

It was clear that Chen Benshuang wanted to visit Xiao Hei, but she was too embarrassed to mention it herself.

Su Yang smiled and said, ”By the way, thank you for saving him last time.”

Chen Benshuang’s face turned slightly red: ”It was him who saved me!”

”Regardless, without you seeking the elixir for him, he would certainly be dead by now,” Su Yang smiled and said, ”Also, come visit the Shen Family Courtyard when you have time. I wasn’t quite right with what I did back at Qinghe Academy, so don’t take it to heart, will you!”

Chen Benshuang was taken aback, not expecting Su Yang to apologize to her. She scratched her head awkwardly, ”Actually, I was the one at fault, I should be the one apologizing to you!”

”That’s enough, we are all jianghu people, why bother with such trivialities!” Su Yang laughed and said: ”Remember to come over sometime, otherwise, it’ll look like you still hold a grudge against me!”

”Ah, alright!” Chen Benshuang was delighted; she really did want to visit the Shen Family Courtyard, but felt too shy to go, especially after her previous issues with Su Yang had caused tensions.

Now that Su Yang had made the invitation, she had to go, otherwise, wouldn’t it mean she was petty and still harbored resentment towards Su Yang?

With that, Chen Benshuang’s face lit up with a happy smile, and after exchanging cheerful goodbyes with Su Yang, she left first.

After entering and having a maid announce his arrival, Su Yang went to find Black Widow in the loft.

Today, Black Widow had changed into a white dress, still enchanting and charming. However, after Su Yang entered, he no longer felt that heart-throbbing temptation. In other words, Black Widow was no longer using her Demonic Enchantment Heart Technique.

Su Yang didn’t waste any time and immediately explained the purpose of his visit.

”Medicine Sect!?” Black Widow frowned slightly: ”The Medicine Sect is the type that thrives on petty success. Twenty years ago, they weren’t even considered part of the Ten Great Sects. Now, they dare to cause such trouble, truly detestable!”

”What exactly happened over these twenty years?” Su Yang was puzzled: ”Why has the Medicine Sect reached its current status?”

”To be precise, it’s because of something that happened twenty years ago!” Black Widow disdainfully said: ”The position the Medicine Sect holds today is all due to my father’s influence!”

”Oh?” Su Yang was astonished; Black Widow’s father was responsible for the rise of the Medicine Sect?

”Twenty years ago, my father was dominant across the world, and all the families of Superlunary Sects regarded my father as their leader,” Black Widow said. ”At that time, the Medicine Sect was just a small sect. Because they could produce Pills of Foundational Fortification, which could help ordinary mortals with their Foundation Establishment and cultivation, they were barely considered a Superlunary Sect. However, due to the Medicine Sect’s weak strength back then, many sects coveted their Pill of Foundational Fortification recipe. One of the Ten Great Sects prepared to annihilate the Medicine Sect and seize the method to refine the Pill of Foundational Fortification. Everybody else just watched with cold eyes, waiting to swoop in for their share once the Medicine Sect had fallen.”

”At that time, the Medicine Sect had no power to resist, but it was my father alone who defeated that sect and saved the Medicine Sect. Afterward, he taught them two types of elixir refining methods. One is called Immortal Essence Pill, and the other is called Great Luo Golden Pill. The former is used by Terrestrial Immortals to replenish their foundations, especially those who did not reach Great Perfection in the Venerable Realm and thus had insufficient foundations as Terrestrial Immortals. The latter, on the other hand, is a must-have life-saving Divine Medicine for Terrestrial Immortals, which, if consumed after being gravely injured, could save one’s life.”

”As a result, the Medicine Sect monopolized these two elixirs and quickly rose among the Superlunary Sects, leading to the status of the Medicine Sect we see today!”

Su Yang was dumbfounded as he listened on the side; he had not expected there to be such a story behind the rise of the Medicine Sect.

”So, you mean to say that the status of the Medicine Sect today is all thanks to these two elixirs, the Immortal Essence Pill and the Great Luo Golden Pill?” Su Yang asked in astonishment.

”That’s right!” Black Widow said: ”In fact, we must also include the Pill of Foundational Fortification. These three elixirs are very important to all Superlunary Sects and families. That’s why the Medicine Sect can hold its current status. Otherwise, what would the Medicine Sect really count for?”

Su Yang fell silent for a moment: ”Then, if someone could refine these three types of elixirs, breaking their monopoly, wouldn’t the status of the Medicine Sect decline?”

”What you are saying is true, but the problem is, no one can refine them!” Black Widow said.

”Ah?” Su Yang looked at Black Widow in surprise. Weren’t these elixir refining methods taught to them by your father?

”My father was very heroic at that time, thinking that if he was to help the Medicine Sect, he should help them all the way. So, after he taught these two elixir refining methods to the Medicine Sect, he did not teach them to our own family!” Black Widow sighed: ”Afterward, my father encountered an accident, causing the loss of these two refining methods, which is why the Medicine Sect now holds absolute initiative!”

Su Yang looked at Black Widow, whose expression grew somber as she talked about her father. It was evident that she had tremendous respect for him. However, she also deeply regretted the unfortunate accident her father encountered.

Su Yang didn’t know what kind of person Black Widow’s father was, but what she said sounded genuine. Her father once swept across all Superlunary Sects and great families by himself; he even repelled one of the Ten Great Sects with his own power alone, which showed the formidable strength of her father!

Possessing the methods to refine these two elixirs, and yet he taught them to the Medicine Sect. The Medicine Sect rose to be one of the Ten Great Sects simply because of these two elixirs. It goes to show how gallant Black Widow’s father truly was!

What kind of accident had such a person encountered?

Su Yang couldn’t help but think of Black Widow’s ambition to control the power in Capital City. Could this be related to her father’s affairs?

Su Yang felt it was not his place to pry further. After contemplating for a while, he said: ”If someone could break this monopoly and refine these two elixirs, then the Medicine Sect wouldn’t have its current influence, right?”

”That’s correct!” Black Widow nodded: ”Their reliance is on these three elixirs. To get these three elixirs, all the Great Sects and noble families have to please them. Once others can refine them too, they will be nothing!”

”In that case, maybe I could start from here!” Su Yang slowly nodded.

Black Widow gave Su Yang a surprised look: ”Start what? Do you think these three elixirs are easy to refine? If it were that easy, could the Medicine Sect maintain such a monopoly?”
