Chapter 1376 Trap
“They were blackmailers.”
“That’s right, that person was clearly still alive.”
“But when they first carried him in, he didn’t seem lifeless.”
“They must have used some form of trickery.”
“That’s true.”
The crowd talked as they dispersed. There was nothing exciting to watch and soon, the main door of the shop was quiet with only Feng Jiu left.
“Master, come inside.” Du Fan said, inviting her to enter. Leng Shuang followed behind and closed the door behind him.
“Master.” The two of them bowed respectfully.
“That’s fine.” Feng Jiu waved her hand and said: “Has there been any incidents here during this time?”
Upon hearing this, the few of them looked at each other and smiled: “Don’t worry Master, although we have encountered some problems, they were all minor problems and we handled them.”
“That’s good.” She nodded and said: “When we first arrive here, if we rely only on ourselves, then we won’t make enemies easily. However, if there are any problems that you can’t handle and I am not here, you can go to the Black Market to seek help.”
“Yes.” They responded and asked if her trip went smoothly, whether there were any dangers along the way.
Feng Jiu told them about her journey briefly and then left some instructions. At the same time, she took out some liquid medicine and told them to sell it at the shop.
“I am going to Pill Sun Peak tomorrow. Every once in a while I will send some medicine over for you to sell in the shop. Also, the three of you need to work harder on your cultivation.”
“Yes, we understand.” The three of them responded. They kept one of the ten bottles of medicine Feng Jiu gave them in the shop and gave the rest to Leng Hua for safekeeping.
After sitting in the shop for a while, Feng Jiu left with Leng Hua and Cloud Devouring to take a walk in the city then returned to the courtyard to rest.
Early in the morning the next day, Feng Jiu changed into an azure robe and changed her appearance before she headed towards the boundary of Pill Sun Peak…
Pill Sun Peak’s criteria for recruiting disciples was different from other sects. The main reason for being there was to refine pills. Therefore, the disciples accepted were ones with refining talent. In addition, because it was the first sect of the originator of pill refining, therefore, the disciples were selected from prestigious families.
This time, the three days of disciples recruitment, to put bluntly, was only to recruit disciples to do odd jobs.
However, she thought that no matter what, she had to get in first and then she could inquire about news on her mother. As for outsider disciples and disciples that do odd jobs, they were no different to her. She didn’t need them to teach her refining skills, nor was she going in to learn refining skills. She only wanted to find her mother.
After walking for a while, and occasionally flying to speed up her journey, it was evening by the time Feng Jiu found a place to rest. She had planned to continue her journey to Pill Sun Peak again tomorrow. Besides, she had three days, she was not in a hurry.
She leant against the tree to eat and drink then closed her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. She closed her eyes and calmed her spirits when she smelt a faint smell of blood in the air.
When she caught a whiff of the bloody smell, she froze slightly. She opened her eyes and followed the smell under the light of the nearly darkened skies. She tiptoed as she followed the scent of the blood, wanting to see why this place smelt of blood. After all, no one dared to kill people within the boundary of the Pill Sun Sect.
As she stepped forward in search, she couldn’t help but be startled when she saw a body hanging upside down. However, at this point, dozens of people suddenly appeared in the forest……
