CH 14

After taking the pill, Li Huowang felt a warm sensation in his dantian, and the fire inside seemed to be getting stronger.

He didn't even have time to feel the nausea and discomfort.

"Xuan Yang, go rest. The effect of this pill is strong, and it will take a while to fully absorb."

"Yes, Master."

Li Huowang stumbled back to his room, leaning against the door frame and dry heaving, but only water came out. The pill had already been fully absorbed.

"Crack, crack." Li Huowang's joints creaked, and his body involuntarily twitched.

The fire in his dantian had spread to his limbs. He felt like he was wearing a thick winter coat in the middle of summer, and his whole body felt like it was being cooked.

The heat made his mind feel dizzy. Li Huowang lay on his bed, watching the spinning ceiling above him and thinking about everything that had happened, remembering the fearful and desperate looks of everyone in the pill room.

He had become Danyang Zi's disgusting accomplice, suppressing what Danyang Zi had done to him onto others.

Danyang Zi might not be literate, but he was not stupid. In the face of absolute strength, anything he did was meaningless.

"I must kill him. I must find a way to kill him!!" Li Huowang roared in his heart.

His right hand unconsciously grabbed the edge of the stone bed. As he shouted the last sentence in his mind, the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"Crack!" The hard stone bed was broken off by him.

This change caught Li Huowang off guard. He looked at his hand and then at the piece of stone he had grabbed. He immediately realized that it was the effect of the pill.

Not only did his strength increase, but other aspects also changed. Li Huowang even felt that he could see a little farther. The pill made him feel reborn.

But when he thought about how he obtained this ability, Li Huowang felt nauseous again.

"Li Senior Brother, are you okay?" Bai Lingmiao cautiously peeked her head out from the door.

Li Huowang looked at her with a complicated expression and didn't know what to say.

Bai Lingmiao stepped forward and said, "Li Senior Brother, you don't have to blame yourself. We all know that you are not in control of yourself. If...if Master asks me to go again, just let me go. Everyone's fate will be the same anyway."

Li Huowang didn't want to talk about this with her. He looked at her bleeding forehead and took out the pill he had made earlier, handing it to her. "Take it, it can stop bleeding."

Bai Lingmiao saw the pill in Li Huowang's hand but shook her head in fear. "I won't take pills, never."

Li Huowang forced a dry laugh and casually threw the pill on the ground. "Yeah, medicine is poison. It's not good for you to take it."

After biting her lip and thinking for a while, Bai Lingmiao asked Li Huowang nervously, "Li Senior Brother, do you want to deal with Master?"

Li Huowang's face changed, and he looked nervously towards the door before rushing over to close it."It's okay, Master can't hear us now. He relies on 'You Lao Ye' to keep watch. Every time it's time for the big market, 'You Lao Ye' will go back to attend it."

"What is 'You Lao Ye'?" Li Huowang asked curiously. It was the first time he had heard of it.

"'You Lao Ye' is just 'You Lao Ye.' You can't see or touch it. My grandfather told me that only high-level practitioners can command them."

"Oh?" Li Huowang's mind was stirred. He made a mental note of this information, which was crucial to him.

"When is the big market?"

Hearing this, Bai Lingmiao looked at him in confusion. "It's on the first and fifteenth day of each month, Li Shixiong. Don't you know? Didn't your parents take you to the market?"

Li Huowang shook his head. The memories in his mind, whether real or illusory, proved that he had only lived in the city before and had never participated in such a rural material exchange conference.

"Li Shixiong, let's get back to business. Do you really want to deal with Master?"

Li Huowang's expression became serious. "Of course, I want to eat his flesh and drink his blood!"

Bai Lingmiao took a deep breath and nodded firmly. "Then, Shixiong, count me in. I also want to help!"

Li Huowang looked at the girl in front of him, and her firm gaze. Perhaps Bai Lingmiao was not as weak as he had imagined.

"Okay, you're in." Li Huowang agreed. He really needed help now.

After careful consideration, Li Huowang said to her with a solemn expression, "The two of us are not enough. You go to the storeroom and see if there are any dissatisfied people. Among the medicine collectors, there must be someone who is not willing to submit to Master. This is a fundamental contradiction, and these people are the ones we can win over."

"Okay." Bai Lingmiao nodded and left.

After sitting for a while, Li Huowang picked up the round jade pendant tied to his waist and remembered his failed senior brother who tried to escape.

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread dot com ].

"Xuan Yang, Xuan Yang, were you and the others gathered like this back then? I hope I won't end up like you."

For the next period of time, Li Huowang fully immersed himself in the Qingfeng View, making sure that the storeroom was well-organized, both in terms of people and things.

Faced with such a well-behaved disciple, Danyang Zi naturally had to reward him. He told Li Huowang about all kinds of basic elixirs, as if he was really cultivating him as a disciple.

These ordinary elixirs were not very effective, at most they could treat minor illnesses and injuries.

And Li Huowang didn't know if it was because of Danyang Zi's elixirs or if all the elixirs in this world were like this, but elixirs had a limit. If you took too much, it would not only fail to cure the illness, but also harm the body.

Moreover, there were taboos. They couldn't be mixed together, or else it would be easy to have accidents.

Rather than saying that Li Huowang could now become a mediocre doctor, it was better to say that he was now a qualified poisoner.

The elixirs were not the key, the key was that Li Huowang's relationship with Danyang Zi was gradually warming up during this contact.Sometimes, the other party would even refine pills and let Li Huowang assist him.

When Danyang Zi took in another disciple, Li Huowang was no longer the youngest and had completely integrated into Qingfeng Sect.

Through such close contact, Li Huowang confirmed his suspicion that Danyang Zi indeed did not know how to read and was very averse to others reading for him.

He did not allow his disciples to surpass him in anything, so he basically only took in disciples who did not know how to read.

This made Li Huowang feel uneasy, and he remembered what Danyang Zi had said to him before.

"The method of becoming immortal is written in the Celestial Book given to me by Lord Laojun himself. Who else in the world can become immortal? He said I can become immortal. I will definitely become immortal!"

Since the Lord Laojun mentioned by him gave him a Celestial Book and none of the other disciples knew how to read, and he himself did not know how to read, who exactly read it to him?
