It was all caused by the person in charge.""This is impossible!"Zhao Yuan's expression was agitated, "Father... how could he possibly poison me"If Ye Bufan hadn't just described her ailment perfectly...“I…”
Lu Gan and the other man's expressions had turned grim. They had initially thought they could handle this useless nobody today, stamping down on the Ninth Peak's humiliation once and for all. Now it seemed impossible.
Shen Qing's plan was to use spirit beasts for a surprise attack. If it succeeded, everything would be smooth sailing. If not, there was a backup plan: falsely accuse the opponent of stealing the spirit beasts from the Fifth Peak and have them eliminated through the Enforcement Hall.
This could be considered a chain plan, one plan after another, very ingenious. However, they had the Great Elder's token in their hand.
In the face of absolute power and status, all conspiracies and schemes are but clouds.
"Though things have come to this, we can't simply admit defeat. Lu Gan swallowed hard, forcing himself to say, “Even if the Grand Elder used medicine, you could go to my Fifth Peak for it. After all, we have a stockpile of spirit beast bones."
Ye Bufan did not answer immediately, but instead reached out with a gesture and grabbed a piece of roasted meat in his hand. With three or two cuts, he chopped it cleanly, leaving only a bare old stick at the end.
He brandished the bone in his hand, a mischievous grin on his face.
"When concocting medicine for the Elder, the bones of a Iron-footed Skyhawk must meet two conditions: First, they must be fresh. That old bone you have won't do."
The second thing is that it needs to be gnawed out by me for it to work, after all, I use true essence power, while your fairy qi is too powerful and will damage the ingredients of the medicine.
"Uh..."
All present wore bewildered expressions, for everyone knew the young man was earnestly talking nonsense.
But there's no way around it, they have to listen, after all the Grand Elder hired them to cure his illness.
Lugan was so frustrated that he almost choked on his own blood.
"Well then, let's go!"
Seeing that today's plan is already unachievable, it's better to leave here quickly than to stay and be humiliated.
He called to the disciples behind him and was about to leave, but Ye Bufan raised his hand to stop him.
"Wait a moment, don't leave just yet."
Lu Gan angrily asked, "What else is there"
"That's right, the prescription I gave to the Grand Elder requires the bones of three different spirit beasts."
Now I have the Iron-footed Sky Eagle, but I still need two more: the Triangular Fairy Antelope and the Black-feathered Spirit Chicken.
"I heard both of these things are available at the Fifth Peak, so it would be a favor if you could have them sent over, Lu Guan. That way I wouldn't have to go and get them myself, and then I wouldn't have to say they were stolen later."
"You..."
At this moment, Lu Gan felt suffocated to the extreme. His blood surged, and an old mouthful of blood welled up, but he forcefully swallowed it back down.
It's no wonder he's so angry. He came here to catch a thief, but ended up not catching him and even had to give two more away.
It's like being slapped on the left cheek and instead of getting angry or retaliating, you smile and offer your right cheek as well. Is there anything more humiliating than that
But there's no way, the other party holds the Elder's token in their hand.
You can't even stop someone from taking two spirit beasts, let alone all the spirit beasts on the Fifth Peak. Not even the Peak Master could do anything about it.
Witnessing his incredibly ugly expression, Ye Bufan smiled with extreme joy.
"What's wrong Manager Lu, aren't you feeling well Your face is so pale. It looks like you might have kidney problems."
"Would you like me to take a look I'm pretty good at medicine, even the Grand Elder asks me to treat him."
Lu Gan pressed down with a hand, almost ready to slap the young man dead: "No need, my body is fine."
"It's alright then, it's normal for men to have some kidney problems, but you should definitely be more moderate in the future."
Ye Bufan smiled and said, "I would trouble Manager Lu to send the other two spirit beasts over as soon as possible. I'm in a hurry here."ttack together!”Ye Bufan just stood there quietly, watching without stopping him.These people from the Shadow Gate were all battle-hardened assassins. Not only were they powerful but also cold and rut...
