Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 472: Chapter 415: Pudong Ying Letting Himself Go

Quan Xiaotong finally had half a month of peaceful days, during which the Evil Path had been suppressed and couldn’t catch a breath.

Each State Prefecture has been continuously reporting the news of gathering manpower, considered to be one victory after another.

There has been no news about the Corpse Refining Lineage behind the Soul Division, but for such a colossal entity, sometimes no news at all can be good news in a twisted way.

In the end, the Fifth Tower is still not ready to confront them, the disparity between the two sides is too great.

If possible, it’s best to let the two hidden forces continue to hold each other in check, then the Fifth Tower could seize the opportunity to seek development.

”Where’s Han Yu?”

A golden monkey with Gao Feng’s face sat nearby, scratching its ears and speaking.

Quan Xiaotong replied with a chuckle, ”It’s been half a month since he disappeared from Bailu City, no news.”

Similarly, having no news about Han Yu is also a good thing.

After all, he causes too much trouble.

But before he could be happy for long, there came hurried footsteps from outside.

”Urgent report from Bailu City!”

A cultivator from the Inspectorate approached quickly with a letter, truly warning that talking about someone behind their back in broad daylight is a bad idea, making both the man and the monkey feel a sense of unease.

”Why don’t you read it! I’m afraid it’ll give me a headache.”

Quan Xiaotong pushed the letter towards Gao Feng, who, upon accepting and opening it, felt his expression grow more peculiar with each glance.

”I think you’d better read it yourself! I can’t make the decision.”

Gao Feng smiled wryly and passed the letter back.

...

A moment later, Quan Xiaotong stood up with a dark face.

”Bastards!”

This shout was filled with great anger towards the Guardian of Bailu City, making such a significant matter known only now.

During the past half month, three things happened.

Firstly, Xiao Yan and Luo Fen gained tremendous fame, one claiming to be the Medicine King and the other the Medicine Saint. Boasting wasn’t a big deal, but their actions offended all the sects and pharmacists of the medical lineage.

Quan Xiaotong, looking at the letter, felt his scalp tingling as the first thought was that the sky of the medical lineage had fallen.

According to the Guardian of Bailu City, pill formulas are now about to flood the town, estimating that in a few days, the entire Cultivator Realm might genuinely achieve pill formula freedom.

The Nine Sects...

Even the pills of the Nine Sects had been cracked, which was an even bigger trouble.

Secondly, Pu Dongying exhibited erratic behavior around Bailu City, amusing himself with passing cultivators, similarly offending many sects.

Thirdly, a wave of cultivators was gathering near Bailu City, requesting support.

The letter also included the effects of pills consumed by the three.

This was the reason for Quan Xiaotong’s anger; such matters should have been reported urgently as soon as Han Yu left.

A genius capable of cracking all pills, such talent is urgently needed by the Fifth Tower.

But why wait until such chaos erupted before reporting, if reported earlier, the person could have been brought in directly, preventing all these troubles!

”It’s very tricky, you won’t easily scoop those two up.”

Gao Feng, the golden monkey, frowned. The Nine Sects were afflicted, who could withstand that?

When it rains, it pours; even before there’s a solution, Ling Wuce rushed in urgently.

”The people from the Hundred Herbs Bureau have all run away!”

What? Quan Xiaotong didn’t quite understand what he meant; what does it mean by people from the Hundred Herbs Bureau all ran away?

Ling Wuce calmed his breath and spoke again, ”The Hundred Herbs Bureau has gone out in full force to Bailu City to scoop people up!”

How did they know?

...

The Guardian of Bailu City looked strangely at Pu Dongying; this guy ate a pill, and is that what caused this unrestrained behavior?

Playing with passing cultivators is one thing, but you dare to play with the Guardian of the Imperial Court as well!

Moreover, the two brothers Luo Fen and Xiao Yan beside him were also involved.

Yes, the three now had controlled the Guardian of Bailu City, along with tying up the Guardian.

”Aren’t you being too extreme with this?”

Xiao Yan was originally a guy who feared no chaos, but now he found Pu Dongying intimidating.

He wasn’t afraid of Pu Dongying who accused them initially, but now Pu Dongying truly made him uneasy from the depths of his heart.

At this moment, Pu Dongying, with a head of sky-reaching braided hair, wearing a bright red floral coat, didn’t give a hint of festive feeling but rather more of eerie vibes.

Tasting the sweet benefits of faster cultivation, Pu Dongying continued to transcend himself on the path of unrestrained behavior.

It’s said that just days ago he single-handedly attempted to expel the Peony Sect Leader from the sect but instead managed to expel himself.

Faced with Xiao Yan’s caution, Pu Dongying pinched the Guardian’s nose and laughed, ”We’re only here to borrow a Flying Messenger Bird, not to harm an old friend.”

Luo Fen, known as the more stable of the two, found himself unable to fathom the other’s intentions.

”What good is it for you to send a message to the Hundred Herbs Bureau?”

”You two stirred up so much trouble, the Inspectorate may not bother with you, but the folks at the Hundred Herbs Bureau are different; your talent is worth their intervention.”

Pu Dongying, being an experienced rogue, behaving erratically doesn’t mean his mind had to go rotten too.

”So, you tied me up just to borrow the bird?”

The Guardian of Bailu City had the look of seeing a ghost; he most couldn’t comprehend the moment Pu Dongying became so mindful.

”The less you expect me to do, the more absurd my actions seem.”

Pu Dongying chuckled; he assisted in collecting various pills, continued involvement, his cultivation speed alarmingly fast.

Now that he managed to drag the Hundred Herbs Bureau in, there’s subtly a sense of brushing on the Realm of Transcendence’s barriers.

”Why not build a commemorative shrine for you two?”

Once again, he had a sudden whimsical idea on his increasingly horsey head.

...

Quan Xiaotong could never imagine the situation at Bailu City would escalate further.

According to spy intel, just two days had passed and stories of Luo Fen and Xiao Yan began to sprout everywhere.

Tales full of details emerged, saying Medicine King and Medicine Saint burst into the scene, collaborated to decipher all pill formulas, making pills not just a privilege of cultivators, more lifesaving pill formulas flowing to the populace, benefiting the world.

Many pill formulas not involving cultivation indeed could be utilized by common folk, and with pill formulas being deciphered, there was a real possibility that they could indeed benefit ordinary individuals.

Damn it, who was stirring things up, eagerly seeking chaos?

Soon, the spies returned with reports, once again, it was Pu Dongying involved.

”Han Yu, that bastard, has created a lunatic.”

Quan Xiaotong was so angry that he gnashed his teeth.

”This isn’t about the pills anymore; it’s fundamentally the old guy going wild.”

Gao Feng was overwhelmed with mixed feelings; pills wouldn’t necessarily change a person’s nature.

But indeed, this particular pill seemed to have unlocked some bizarre attribute in Pu Dongying’s old shameless self.

”People must be scooped.”

For no other reason, the Hundred Herbs Bureau had already charged ahead, not offering support wasn’t an option anymore.

”Why not go talk with the Nine Sects.”

Quan Xiaotong was thoroughly helpless now, opting to put his hope in Gao Feng.

Rabbit treasure Gao Feng widened his red eyes; what could he even discuss?

Such massive losses, could the Nine Sects have a conversation?

”Just tell them, bring the people back safely, and the pill formulas from the Hundred Herbs Bureau will be shared with them.”

Quan Xiaotong gritted his teeth, spoke decisively, since the Hundred Herbs Bureau wanted the people, the cost should be self-covered.

”With the talent of these two, their future achievements will no doubt be remarkable; truly worth the gamble.”

Gao Feng strongly agreed.

Just as they thought of solutions, Ling Wuce hurriedly entered again from the outside.

”I say, you really intend to do intel now, running here every day.”

Quan Xiaotong spoke unfriendly.

Ling Wuce had no interest in retorting; he glared at the other before suddenly dropping a bombshell.

”Han Yu is dead!”

”What did you say?”

This time, Quan Xiaotong couldn’t remain calm, abruptly standing up.

Not that he could be blamed for losing composure, to some extent, they were in a cooperative relationship.

From pills to subsequent spirit bodies, even Han Yu’s occasional mishaps, there were mutual gains, benefits on both sides had consistently been reciprocal.

Of course, Han Yu occasionally brought trouble as well, but the advantages afforded by Han Yu were incredibly formidable.

Especially regarding the Corpse Refining Lineage, he and Han Yu could definitely be said to be on the same front.

Did he actually die now?

Who had the ability to murder him?
