Chapter 1971: Owner Of The Tower
Therefore, they were able to stand and watch as bystanders at a place far away from Heavenly Pill Tower that day, and they looked at the four people who surrounded Heavenly Pill Tower.
Two of them were middle-aged men, the third person looked like a woman in her thirties, and the fourth person was an old man in gray clothes who stood with his hands behind his back.
The strength of the four people were impressive, the coercion of their bodies was shocking. The four of them stood at the four corners of Heavenly Pill Tower and prevented the people from Heavenly Pill Tower from escaping. It was obvious their determination stemmed from the injured old man.
However, even though they had surrounded Heavenly Pill Tower, even though their strength was good, and even though they knew the old man they wanted was inside Heavenly Pill Tower, they stood there and didn’t rush in to take the old man away forcibly. They wanted the people from Heavenly Pill Tower to hand the old man over to them. It was obvious they didn’t want to be enemies with Heavenly Pill Tower.
The four people who were standing on the rooftop nearby smelt the scent medicine in the air and their eyes flashed, shock and surprise entered their eyes.
This was such a strong medicinal scent and it permeated through the entire Hundred Rivers City, it wasn’t just any ordinary medicine. What was Heavenly Pill Tower’s backing? Who was this alchemist who could refine such a wonderful fragrance?
As doubts entered their minds, jealousy sprouted. As long as they surrendered the person they wanted, then they didn’t have to become enemies.
Inside Heavenly Pill Tower, Patriarch Yang walked out slowly and looked at Feng Jiu and Xuanyuan Mo Ze. A trace of complexity flashed across his eyes. After a slight pause, he stepped forward and said: “The strength of the people outside is extraordinary. If you don’t have any relationship with the unconscious old man, I would advise you to keep away from this kind of trouble.”
Yang Xiao Er who was next to him looked worried, but she didn’t say anything and just looked at them.
Upon hearing Patriarch Yang’s words, Feng Jiu smiled: “I happen to have a friendship with the old man. I’m afraid I will have to deal with this matter.” Having said that, she glanced at the father and daughter and continued speaking: “I apologise for the lack of hospitality today. I’m not sure what will happen later, but you are not safe in the building. It’s better if you leave first.”
“In that case, we will take our leave first.” Patriarch Yang held both hands in front of him and replied, then he dragged his daughter away with him. He knew in his heart that if both parties were to fight with each other, they wouldn’t be safe if they remained in the building. It would be troublesome if they were to be regarded as being associated with Heavenly Pill Tower.
“Hey, Sister Feng… Brother Leng Hua, be careful!” Yang Xiao Er shouted as she was being pulled away by her father.
As the crowd watched on while the four people stared at Heavenly Pill Tower, they saw Patriarch Yang and his daughter come out of the building hurriedly and stepped back to a distance with the crowd.
Not long after, two more people walked out of Heavenly Pill Tower’s main door. They were the two managers, Leng Hua and Du Fan. After that, another two figures, one in red and one in black, walked out side by side and stood in front of Heavenly Pill Tower looking at the four people.
“I am the owner of Heavenly Pill Tower, who are you looking for?”
Feng Jiu stood beside Xuanyuan Mo Ze and spoke in a cold yet laidback voice. She looked at the gray-clothed old man in front and her gaze swept across. She could tell that he was a peak-stage Immortal Sacred strong exponent, and out of the other three people, two were peak-stage Celestial strong exponents and the other one was a middle-stage Immortal Sacred strong exponent.
“This is the owner of Heavenly Pill Tower? It’s actually a woman!”
