Chapter 369 - 369 Another Storm

369 Another Storm

Yao Tianchen wasn’t the only one thinking about the Five Poison Sect’s true motive. Ye Xuan was the same. Li Mao had been on tenterhooks for the past few days and hadn’t even slept well. He didn’t know who to talk to, so he could only come to Ye Xuan.

“What do you think the Five Poison Sect is trying to do?”

Ye Xuan pondered for a moment and said, “The more the Five Poison Sect is like this, the more it shows that they are plotting behind the scenes. Perhaps there is an even bigger conspiracy waiting.”

What exactly were they plotting, to the point that Zhou Hong was able to suppress his hatred and did not come looking for them?

Just as Ye Xuan was deep in thought, the long-awaited system prompt sounded in his mind.

[Random Mission: Consume 1000 divine antidotes (any poison can be removed after consumption)]

[Mission Success Reward: 10,000 prodigal points. Mission failure will result in a random deduction of points. Time remaining: 7 days]

[Random Mission: Consume 3000 dispel talismans (stick them on your body to dispel all negative statuses)]

[Mission Success Reward: 30,000 prodigal points. Mission failure will result in a random deduction of points. Time remaining: 7 days]

Ye Xuan was a little dumbfounded by the two missions that popped up all of a sudden. Although it was a little difficult to complete, the rewards were so good that he didn’t even hear Li Mao’s shouts.

Ye Xuan coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment. “I’m sorry I was a little distracted. What did you just say?”

Li Mao didn’t take it to heart. He only sighed and said, “The disciples in the valley have been very busy recently. They are rushing to make elixirs. It’s hard to guard against the Five Poison Sect’s poison techniques, so the antidotes are a must.”

Ye Xuan also nodded perfunctorily and said, “You’re right.”

Ye Xuan then asked, “What were you saying about the antidotes?”

Li Mao didn’t understand why Ye Xuan had such a big reaction.

“Of course, it’s because the cultivation technique of the Five Poison Sect is more or less poisonous…”

Before he could finish, Ye Xuan smiled. He knew how to complete this mission.

When Ye Xuan came to Yao Tianchen’s door, Yao Tianchen was also refining pills. Ye Xuan didn’t want to disturb him, so he just watched quietly from the side.

Yao Tianchen’s pill furnace was a small dark green cauldron. There were many life-like exotic flowers and plants carved on them as if they were really coming to life.

As the flames burned, Yao Tianchen methodically added all kinds of medicinal ingredients such as the hundred-year-old blue spiritual grass, seven-star vine, green jade ring, and so on, all of which were precious spiritual plants.

Not long after, a medicinal fragrance wafted out. The time was probably ripe, and three white pills slowly floated out of the cauldron, the pill patterns on them were like mist.

It could be seen that Yao Tianchen’s alchemy skills had already reached the point of perfection. Otherwise, he would not have been able to easily refine these top-quality heart-clearing pills.

“Is there something you need from me?”

Ye Xuan then replied, “I heard that the valley is under martial law. Everyone is preparing for the Five Poison Sect’s attack. I also want to do something to help.”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Yao Tianchen’s interest was piqued. He asked, “Tell me about it.”

Ye Xuan took out the antidotes and said, “This is a specially made pill that can expel any poison. I hope Valley Master can accept it as a little token of my appreciation.”

When Ye Xuan said the second sentence, Yao Tianchen couldn’t help but look up.

Not to mention him, even if the Alchemy King was still alive, he would not be able to refine a pill that could expel any poison. This kind of magical pill could only appear in ancient times.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Now that Ye Xuan had casually taken out a pill, he actually dared to make such a boastful statement. Yao Tianchen carefully examined the pill, and his eyelids couldn’t help but twitch.

“Junior Ye, you’re not joking, are you?”

This elixir was very ordinary, and it didn’t even have elixir veins. It should be known that the higher the grade, the more elixir veins one would have.

Pills were divided into supreme-grade, top-grade, mid-grade, low-grade, and inferior grades. Each grade was further divided into levels 1-9. The pill Ye Xuan took out wasn’t even considered inferior.

Yao Tianchen could barely believe that this pill could expel the lowest grade of poison, but expelling all kinds of poison was simply a fantasy.

Ye Xuan looked at the pill that Yao Tianchen had just refined. The pill’s fragrance was overflowing, and the pill veins were perfect. One look was enough to tell that it was of an extraordinary grade. He then looked at the one he took out. The contrast was simply too obvious. It was simply a product with unknown origins.

Perhaps Yao Tianchen was also afraid that Ye Xuan would be embarrassed, so he quickly changed the topic, “No matter what, that’s very thoughtful of you. Where did you get this pill?”

Ye Xuan thought for a moment. In order not to be questioned on the origins of this medicine in the future, he said directly to save himself from any trouble, “I made it myself.”

Yao Tianchen didn’t doubt the authenticity of his words. After all, this medicine looked very ordinary, and it was most likely that Ye Xuan had casually refined it.

“I still have a lot here. No matter what, it’s a token of my sincerity. I hope you can accept it, Valley Master.”

Yao Tianchen didn’t want to dampen Ye Xuan’s enthusiasm, so he took the storage bag from his hand, “Then I’ll thank you in advance, Junior Ye.”

Several days passed in a row, and there was no abnormality in the Five Poison Sect. It seemed that they had forgotten about this matter. The Valley of Medicine Masters could be considered to have regained its peace, but the outside of the valley was not calm.

Originally, the Second Elder wanted to ask Yao Tianchen if they should restore order and allow the disciples to enter and leave the valley normally. However, Yao Tianchen informed him of an important piece of news.

“These are troubled times. I have just received a message from the Misty Cloud Sect. During this period of time, there are disciples from other sects who have gone missing.”

The Second Elder was shocked. “Such a thing has happened?”

Because of the previous storm, the Valley of Medicine Masters had called back most of their disciples outside, so this incident had little impact on them. Thus, they only found out about the news later, and it was only when other sects sent a message that they knew.

“The Misty Cloud Sect, the Wind Thunder Pavilion, the White Veil Sect, and the Wind Sword Sect all have some disciples missing. Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?”

Yao Tianchen’s expression turned serious again as he looked at the messages from the other sects.
