Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 467: Chapter 409: The Sky Has Fallen for the Peony Sect

Han Yu seemed to hear something unbelievable.

He’s a fake pharmacist, but at least he has some basic knowledge.

Eating someone else’s pills and being able to discern the pill formula is akin to fantasy.

If this were possible, formulas wouldn’t be the sects’ most closely guarded secrets.

If so, who would dare sell pills?

”Among the myriad of beings, there will always be those exceptionally gifted people.”

Bailu City’s Guardian looked at Han Yu, thinking that the guy could concoct all kinds of heaven-defying pills, so maybe it’s not too odd for two brothers to be able to taste pill formulas.

When Han Yu is around, anything related to pills seems not impossible, no matter how outlandish.

Han Yu found it laughable and asked the Artifact Spirit in his Sea of Consciousness.

”Is this really possible?”

The Artifact Spirit nodded solemnly, ”This guy isn’t wrong, some people are indeed born extraordinarily gifted, though most are just there to make up the numbers, undeniably.”

”You might as well directly name me.” Han Yu obviously sensed the jest and replied irritably.

Bailu City’s Guardian sighed a bit, ”It’s said that a skilled pharmacist isn’t necessarily a skilled doctor, but a skilled doctor is undoubtedly an excellent pharmacist.”

Pharmacists only understand pharmacology and alchemy, while doctors need to know other healing techniques besides these.

After the Guardian of Bailu City finished lamenting, he suddenly realized that the most skilled pharmacist seemed to be right there, causing him to smile awkwardly.

Han Yu didn’t mind, as he wasn’t even considered a pharmacist, just a middleman.

”Then where does the trouble come from?”

It’s nothing more than tasting pills and writing formulas; there’s nothing problematic about it.

The Guardian of Bailu City shook his head, saying that the issue is quite significant.

”Imagine, only children cry every day, where do you find cultivators injured every day?”

A large group of cultivators come every day carrying pills, where are so many injuries?

”These two brothers wrote formulas not hidden from others, and the replicated formulas were spread out by them.”

The Guardian of Bailu City felt quite helpless, young people act recklessly, unaware of any problems.

Just ponder, what are these many cultivators coming every day hoping to achieve?

”Are these cultivators all trying to crack pill formulas?”

Han Yu looked puzzled as he speculated.

”These pills are either from other sects or bought from other pharmacists, you can imagine the consequences.”

The Guardian of Bailu City sighed.

Many pill formulas are either strategic assets of sects or secrets used by pharmacists to earn livelihood and cultivation resources.

Publicizing the formulas, those not harmed would naturally be elated, but what about the pharmacists and sects harmed?

They would likely be gnashing their teeth in anger!

This approach would undoubtedly offend a bunch of people, even some sects.

”I originally wanted to send the two away before others caused trouble; it would benefit Bailu City and also safeguard them.”

The Guardian of Bailu City shuddered at the thought of those being wronged uniting to cause trouble.

He had approached the two, but they didn’t consider it a big deal, leaving him feeling extremely uncomfortable.

He couldn’t chase them away, and if trouble arose, Bailu City wouldn’t withstand a group of cultivator rampages.

No wonder, Han Yu realized, no wonder the Guardian was so pleased when he came looking for Xiao Yan and Luo Fen.

...

”Has everything been investigated?”

A large group of cultivators had already gathered outside Bailu City.

These were either sects from other state prefectures or pharmacists with a small reputation in the Cultivator Realm, with pharmacists constituting the majority.

After all, they were the ones most aggrieved.

The Cultivator Realm is vast, with more than enough prodigious newcomers, which is one thing, but when the new blood overtakes the old, that’s truly excessive.

As a top-tier sect and a leading entity in the medical field, Peony Sect felt as if the sky had fallen after waking up one morning.

Over the year, pill trade had become increasingly gloomy; sects that used to cooperate stopped their interactions, especially in the latter half, when trades fell off a cliff.

Initially, Peony Sect thought the pill market was merely sluggish and conducted investigations, considering lowering prices accordingly, but even price cuts didn’t attract buyers.

This was peculiar, poor market conditions are one thing, but not needing the products was unimaginable.

Peony Sect sensed something amiss and carried out in-depth investigations, and the findings nearly drove its Sect Leader to insanity.

Nearby sects weren’t not needing pills; they made their own, and while self-production could be overlooked, they all utilized Peony Sect’s formulas.

What audacity, all acting as if doctors without scalpels!

When Peony Sect went to confront them, each sect acted shamelessly.

Pill formulas came from Bailu City, we didn’t steal or rob, using them openly, what’s wrong?

Not just us, all nearby state prefectures obtained their own formulas.

Now Peony Sect’s world seemed truly collapsed, and its means of livelihood exposed, what would happen in the future? What would happen to its throngs of apprentices?

”Everything’s been investigated, two young men causing trouble by relying on their exceptional talents, cultivation only at the Divine Gaze Realm.”

Peony Sect’s cultivators had infiltrated the city to clarify the details.

As the lead in this operation, Peony Sect’s Elder Pu Dongying asked more questions, young Divine Gaze stage ones, but don’t let them be disciples from some great sect causing disruption.

Peony Sect came to confront, but also wanted to see their background before deciding on handling.

”Which sect is the opposition from?”

Pu Dongying stroked his white beard, his old wrinkled face carried some caution.

But the disciple shook his head, looking perplexed.

”They’re loose cultivators.”

Pu Dongying’s gaze seemed to want to flay the disciple, you want to listen to yourself, they’re fellow disciples, how could they be loose cultivators?

”They truly are loose cultivators; it’s said these two acquired inheritance from former medical predecessors, so they’re both disciples and loose cultivators.”

Pu Dongying pretended not to believe those two could be loose cultivators.

...

”Really loose cultivators?”

Not even Pu Dongying believed it, Han Yu wasn’t particularly convinced either.

”They absolutely are loose cultivators, Inspectorate investigated them, their lifestyle tracks are clean.”

”It’s highly likely they attained the same opportunity that led them to receive inheritance in the medical field.”

Pu Dongying asserted confidently, if their identity wasn’t clean, how would the Fifth Tower spare them?

”It’s not impossible, those with Qi Fortune, falling off a cliff or into water as accidents lead to opportunities seems reasonable!”

The Artifact Spirit expressed understanding.

”Some even get struck on the head by falling bottles while sleeping!”

Han Yu was left exasperated, the latter example was unnecessary.

”Looks like those two are quite formidable, reaching the Divine Gaze Realm by relying solely on themselves at a young age.”

Doesn’t this make them more outstanding than the geniuses from great sects?

”That’s where it’s problematic, gazing over the Cultivator Realm, when are talents scarce, it’s those not perishing halfway that are rare, they’re loose cultivators, however formidable, can they rival sects?”

Pu Dongying didn’t think highly of the two, being loose cultivators only suggests their talents are exceptional, but can’t protect them.

As they discussed, a squad of Palace Guards rushed over, looking somewhat panicked.

”Sir, something’s wrong!”

The leader hurried forward, speaking urgently, ”Outside Bailu City, a group of cultivators is blocking the city gate!”

Fearing troubles manifesting, just after talking about potential issues, they erupted.

Bailu City’s Guardian cast a resentful glance at Han Yu, hesitated to speak, recalling the tower’s folklore.

It was said that wherever this guy went, troubles arose, even the Celestial Secret Tower, known for avoiding losses and seeking gains, was disrupted by him.

”Why are you looking at me, I just arrived less than half a day ago, haven’t been anywhere, don’t pin it on me.”

Han Yu felt the gaze offensive and stared back in annoyance.
