Chapter 67: The Game of Theif and mouse -2

The next day,

In a well-decorated chamber,

Sect Master, Saintess, Beta Fang, and two supreme elders were gathered here.

With narrowed eyes, glancing at Saintess, Ling'r, The supreme elder also known as onion elder continued, "I had a bad dream, it seems crows want to gang up upon the mighty eagle,"

[ Onion: a body shape of short height and round belly ]

With those words, the Onion Elder took out, the gifted, bottle of pills from Bai Lung during yesterday's night, and presented it in front of the sect master.

Firstly, the onion elder took out a healing pill and showed it to the Sect Master.

"Are these... Lord Ranked Pills?" The Sect Master questioned, amazement evident in his voice... The quality and rarity of these pills are highly superior.

The Onion Elder nodded, "Indeed. The Holy Envoy bestowed these upon me. They are not only of Lord Rank but...they are also of Saint grade Quality with pill intent,"

He boasted raising his chest high with his nose already touching the sky above, just a thought of holding a Lord rank pill with saint-grade quality is enough to let his upcoming seven generations die in peace.

Hearing this, the sect master's eyes widened with realization.

The timing of such a gift, amidst the turmoil, wasn't a mere coincidence.

He also recalls what his daughter mentioned a few days ago, "The Holy Envoy is unpredictable yet he notices everything like a hawk,"

Knowing these,

Sect Master connected the dots inside his tiny brain, he has lived for countless years and explored the words...so, it's not hard to fathom that, the Holy envoy seems to have predicted the attack.

' Wait... What is the meaning of this? Is Holy Envoy telling me that, the Onion elder is the only Grand Elder I can trust?... Hmm, most likely,' The sect master said in his mind and these few days many elders seemed to be rebelling against the sect.

...

As the onion Elder showed all the pills, Sect Master's heart began to beat faster and faster.

Swoosh!

As soon as the Sect Master consumed those pills, he could feel his body rapidly healing, all his wounds and injuries vanished in an instant with a dim glow surrounding his body.

At the same time, the Sect master could feel his Qi getting unstable, His blood was boiling and he could feel his Cultivation rapidly increasing.

The effect of the pill was very great, however, such pills can only be taken once over a century, otherwise, a serious backlash would occur causing 'Pill poisoning' which would slowly dry the spiritual roots of someone.

A dry spiritual root is way worse than a dry ricky.

...

"Great Elder Luang, You should also take these pills, they have extraordinary qualities," Sect Master said while returning the bottle of pills back to Onion Elder.

"No! No! I dare not, I already become old, it's best suited for Young Talents who have limitless potential such as Saintess, Beta Fang or Xiao Tian... " Onion denied it, after all, he knew such precious pills were wasted on him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? It's only right if you consume it, after all, these are the rewards bestowed upon you" The Sect master hurriedly opened his mouth.

" B-But " Onion Elder was in a dilemma, it was true that the Holy Envoy handed him the pills, but these pills could be better utilized by others.

~~~

Meanwhile,

Bai Lung who was sitting crossed-legged in his room, suddenly opened his menacing sinister eyes, with a sinister smirk tugged on his lips.

He had originally planned to stay neutral, but now he was on the side of the sect master, not to mention, that he even handed some pills as 'Goodwill'

That way, the sect master will stay under the control of Bai Lung, though on whole, the Heaven Fall sect isn't that powerful after all, there exist powerful Diamond rank sects

But if a gold-rank sect can be controlled under your fingertip, why not control it?

Life is a long sinister path, one needs to learn how to kill a bull with only a smile.

If not, his life won't last long.
