On the same day, the announcement of Fan Jing's arrest spread through the streets of Northern Chi County. The Shangguan family announced that Fan Jing had done something wrong by poisoning the clan's Elder, Shangguan Li. They expelled him from the Medicine Union and informed the world of the bounty of 100,000 silver taels for Fan Jing's arrest.

This explosive piece of news had naturally become the topic of conversation among the people of Northern Chi Prefecture over tea days and meals. It was hard to imagine that such an honest and amiable person would poison Shangguan Li.

However, Fan Jing had already been gone for around half a month. The Nine Prefectures were so large that it would be difficult to capture him.

"Mu Er, since you are under Brother Yang, then in the future you must respect and learn from him. From my point of view, with Brother Yang's current cultivation, your future accomplishments will definitely be much higher than mine." At this moment, after a day of tormenting, Shangguan Dun calmed down a little and began to converse with Shangguan Mu in earnest. "I have a feeling that the Shangguan Family will be relying on you in the future."

Shangguan Li's words naturally made Shangguan Mu's blood boil. He was also very excited to have a disciple, Qingyang. He was very respectful to this mysterious and powerful Master of his.

"Father, don't worry. Naturally, I won't weaken the name of the Shangguan family. I want to go around with my master and train. I'll come back after I succeed." Shangguan Mu spoke of his plan. After all, living in Northern Chi Prefecture for a long time was the same as always being under the protection of the Shangguan family. If the young eagle didn't soar alone, how could he plump up his wings?

"Good, good, good. Your thoughts are indeed quite good, but you still need to discuss it with your master before deciding." After saying three good words in succession, Shangguan Sheng was naturally proud that his son had such thoughts.

"Mm. I was preparing to discuss it with Master in two days." Shangguan Mu nodded his head solemnly. After all, people like Qingyang who liked to travel alone usually didn't like to bring along their disciples and followers.

"This is the medicinal herb required for the Purple Gold Bone Ointment. You can send it to Brother Yang now, in two days he'll be participating in the competition." He took out a brocade box from behind and handed it to Shangguan Mu. "Brother Yang, please tell me what you want today."

"In addition, Brother Yang should not be one of them, so you can tell him some things." When Shangguan Mu turned around to leave, a sentence from Shangguan Sheng stopped him in his tracks.

He carried the embroidered box and walked straight to Qingyang's side room. After all, he knew Qingyang was going to Nanxiang County in two days to fight for the medicine list. It was the most suitable time for him to tell them what he thought.

"It's Mu Er, right? "Come in." Standing outside his room, Shangguan Mu took a deep breath and raised his hand to knock on the door. But then he heard a chuckle coming from inside the room.

When he pushed the door open and entered, he saw Qingyang, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, looking at him with a smile.

"Master, sorry to disturb your cultivation." Clasping his hands in salute, Shangguan Mu placed the embroidered box on the wooden table and said respectfully, "This box contains all kinds of herbs required by Master for the Purple-Gold Bone Ointment."

"No problem. Take a seat." Qingyang glanced at the embroidered box, smiled, and gestured for Shangguan Mu to sit down. "You didn't come to find me so late, did you? Just to give me this embroidered box?"

When he raised his head, he saw Qingyang's smiling silver gray eyes staring at him, as if he could see through his own thoughts.

"Master, I'm here to discuss something with you."

"Oh? "What is it?" Qingyang asked with interest as he got up and sat beside Shangguan Mu.

"Yes, I want to follow Master on a tour of the Nine Prefectures in the future." Without hesitation, Shangguan Mu told her what he was thinking.

"Why?" Out of Shangguan Mu's expectations, Qingyang neither agreed nor rejected, he only asked in a soft voice.

"As someone who was born in the Darknorth Commandery, I live a life of luxury and luxury every day. I imagine you are aware of all of these teachers." After thinking for a while, a trace of helplessness flashed across Shangguan Mu Chen's eyes: "The practice of the arts is already prepared in the family, and the Shangguan family is almost like an emperor in the Northern Chi Prefecture, no one dares to humiliate the Shangguan family, not to mention that I am the next generation's family head. Although this kind of life that seems impressive makes many people envious, in truth the Shangguan family is only used by the Nangrong family, I also have my own thoughts."

"Oh? Do you have your own ideas? " Qingyang smiled and gestured for Shangguan Mu to continue.

Seeing that Qingyang did not refute or persuade him, Shangguan Mu's tone became much more confident. He continued, "I know that the Nine Prefectures is big and beyond my imagination, and the Shangguan family is not even considered a second rate family in the Nine Prefectures. I want to become a powerful warrior, stand at the peak of the Nine Prefectures, and help the people in the family to escape the control of others."

"As for powerful people, they have all experienced countless life and death situations before being able to transform. Now, my master has bestowed upon me the ability to possess the same body as the Flaming Wood. I believe that I have the potential to become a powerful person." At this point, a trace of excitement surfaced on Shangguan Mu's face. He looked expectantly at Qingyang.

After a moment of silence, Qingyang spoke calmly, "You said the Shangguan Family is at the mercy of others. Is it the current Nanxiong Royal Family?"

Indeed, the Shangguan family was like an emperor in the Northern Chi Country, they could only be restricted by the royal family of the Nanxiang clan. Qingyang asked so as to gradually investigate if the matters of the Azure Sun Village were related to the Shangguan family.

"That's right. No matter how grand the Northern Chi Prefecture is, it is still under the control of the South Rong family." With a low sigh, Shangguan Mu seemed a bit helpless. "Master, you should know that our Shangguan family cultivates wood power, and our father is a godly pharmacist of the Medicine League. Naturally, the Nan Rong family needs the pills we concoct, so we let the county go."

"If it's just refining pills, it wouldn't be at the mercy of anyone, right?" Qingyang said flatly as he glanced at Shangguan Mu.

'Nan Rong has always been at war with the Western barbarians of the Beitang Empire. My Shangguan family will definitely be the first to bear the brunt of the battle. The alchemist will definitely be the first to be killed in the war. With reddened eyes, Shangguan Mu thought about the clan members who had been forced to participate in the war and died with grief.

Qingyang naturally understood that during a war, it was the best way to use troops to attack the other party's alchemists and supplies. The Shangguan Family was the number one alchemist family in the whole of Nanxiong, so naturally many of their clansmen would be sent to the frontline.

Now that father is a Divine Alchemist, the Nan Rong family does not dare to make things too difficult for the Shangguan family. However, the alchemist is only a medicine master after all, and they do not have tyrannical strength. The Shangguan Family is forever just a vassal of Nan Rong." "Shangguan Mu's hands were trembling slightly.

"Yes, indeed." Qingyang paused, seeing that Shangguan Mu didn't seem to be lying, he continued, "The reason I've taken you as my disciple isn't just because you have a fire and wood body now, but more importantly, your personality and personality are both good."

"I do not wish for my disciple to become a bloodthirsty person in the future. Otherwise, I will personally kill you." As he said this, he thought of his fellow villagers and his parents and a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes.

"Master, I think you may not have interacted much with Shangguan Family, but after a few days, you have found out about our race's character. Cultivators rarely have a taste of slaughter, and most of them are kind and amiable. I, Shangguan Mu, and the Shangguan Family do not have a single person who loves to kill! have never done anything against nature! " Standing up abruptly, Shangguan Mu was surprised that Qingyang didn't just show no fear, he even raised his hand and made an oath.

"Is this really not the doing of the Shangguan Family?" After all, Shangguan Mu and his men were good people, but they couldn't protect the fact that the Shangguan Family had been forced by the Nan Rong family to massacre the entire village.

"En, I have my own plans. In two days, you will follow me to the Southern Rong Country to fight for the Medicine Board." He nodded. Looking at the current situation, Qingyang could not determine whether or not the Shangguan family participated in the massacre of the village, so he relaxed a bit.

More importantly, Qingyang needed a place in the Medicine Board competition, and Shangguan Mu was helping him.

"I'm back from the Southern Rong Country." With a sneer, the fire in Qingyang's eyes flared.
