"Grandfather, could this be … a panacea for the soul?" The youth who was kneeling on the ground trembled as he asked.

"That's right!" After tonight, Grandpa will let you go and work hard on what you want to do. Grandpa is already old and you are still young, so you should have your own path. " Zuo Jian looked lovingly at his grandson kneeling on the ground and sighed before bending down to help him.

"Get up! Jing Yun, after taking the medicine, grandfather will protect you. "

"But I don't want to be bound by someone because of me." Zuo Jingyun shook his head. Although the medicine was right in front of him, he didn't look happy at all. On the contrary, he felt that his grandfather must have given him some unfathomable condition. He might even be controlled by others in the future.

"Hehe, I know what you want to say, but you don't know the value of this medicine. I did indeed have this thought back then, but did you know? Even if I signed the contract to become a slave myself, I wouldn't be able to exchange this pill for it, because it's enough to make a Yuan Dan Stage cultivator work hard for it, and people like me can't even compare to one-third of the price of this pill. " When Zuo Jian spoke, he looked bitter. It was obvious that he was saying that it was impossible for him to obtain this medicine even if he sent someone to serve a servant.

"But, if that's the case, then why did grandpa get this medicine?" Zuo Jingyun didn't understand. He didn't believe that a good person would help him for no reason at all.

"There's no need to think too much. Tonight, I must consume this medicinal pill. Otherwise, without that person's sealing power, the medicinal effect would have been scattered rapidly." Zuo Jian stroked Zuo Jingyun's head, his love frozen at that moment.

"Grandpa!" Zuo Jingyun looked at the benevolent old face, not knowing what to say. His voice was choked with sobs.

"Okay, after you take the medicine and recover, grandpa will tell you everything you want to know. Of course, I still have a task for you." It was rare for Zuo Jian to calm down and say something.

"Who?" On the bed, a black-clothed youth was resting with his legs crossed. His face was still slightly pale, but he seemed to have noticed something. His eyes suddenly opened and a stern expression flashed across his face.

The black-clothed youth was the one who had previously been unconscious, Yang Fan. At this moment, he felt that something was different. Regardless of his tone or attitude, there was caution in his movements, and his perception had become much sharper as well.

At this moment, he was looking at the door with a cautious gaze. From the looks of it, he didn't seem to be lying. Even after a long time had passed, Yang Fan still hadn't shifted his gaze away. However, there was still no sound coming from the door.

But the next moment, a voice filled with doubt came from outside the door.

"I don't think I'm in any danger. How did you discover my existence?"

Just as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man pushed open the door and entered the room. This person was Wei Jianming. At this moment, he was looking at Yang Fan, who was still sitting cross-legged on the bed with a flabbergasted expression.

"Who are you? Why did you barge into my residence so late at night?" Yang Fan frowned as he watched the middle-aged man walk in.

Yang Fan chose to question instead of answering the incoming person's question. Right now, he was constantly on guard because he couldn't sense the opponent's strength. From this, it could be seen that the opponent's strength was definitely above his own, and far beyond his own.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that someone of such a young age would have such a temperament. I've looked at the other two people who might have had similar reactions to you. It seems that I suspect that the person who killed An'er was you. " The middle-aged man's gaze was sharp, as if he could see through his thoughts with a glance.

When Yang Fan heard the middle-aged man's words, his body trembled slightly. However, this was not enough for others to notice, because his eyes never left the middle-aged man. This way, he didn't reveal too much of his emotions.

"You seem very afraid of me." The middle-aged man squinted his eyes as he realized something. He felt that the other party's reaction was too calm. Out of all the younger generation members he had met, this youth was definitely the best if someone asked them about it with such ease.

"Of course, may I know if a stranger barged into your room for no reason, with a cultivation level that far surpasses mine, and even asked you some inexplicable questions? Do you think that person wouldn't be vigilant? And it happened to me. " Yang Fan stated in an indifferent tone, his tone filled with coldness.

"Hehe, being calm is indeed a good sapling. It's a pity that you shouldn't have killed Wei An." The middle-aged man shook his head.

"What Wei An? I don't even know him." Yang Fan said with an expressionless face.

You don't need to deny it, there are some things I already know, this time it's only you and the other two who have the ability to kill Wei An, and those two people have already been knocked out by me and have no traces on them. I even checked the storage bags. The middle-aged man explained, as if what he said was for Yang Fan to hear.

"But, from the moment I entered the room until now, your performance was truly astonishing. Furthermore, I have already determined that it was you who killed Wei An." The middle-aged man suddenly increased the intensity of his tone as he stared fixedly at Yang Fan, his aura pressing down from the inside and from the outside.

"Cough cough, I am a core disciple in this ranking competition, not to mention I am the target of the sect head's attention. You accused me without any evidence, and you intend to frame me and kill me. According to the rules, this is a capital offense." Yang Fan was panting heavily as he endured this pressure. He had just lost consciousness and his physical strength had yet to recover. At this moment, the Ninja's injuries from the day had immediately caused him to feel discomfort in his chest.

"Hehe, little child, there's no need to hide anymore. You've been hit by the Scorching Spring Powder. Although the medicinal effects have already been removed, the unique fragrance will only dissipate after seven days."

Yang Fan's heart froze. Why didn't he know what fragrance it was? Could it be that he was intentionally trying to trick me? Impossible. Judging from his tone and manner of speaking, it didn't seem like he was lying. However, he couldn't allow such an unknown situation to get exposed. If what he said was true, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?

"I don't know what you're talking about. Please leave immediately, or else I'll call someone over." Yang Fan raised his hand and pointed towards the door as he spoke with slight anger.
