The Indomitable Master of Elixirs

Using his bloodshot eyes, Zhou Qi stared at his bloodstained body. The smell of death was slowly swallowing up his soul.

He struggled to lift his bloody hands and reached out to Ji Fengyan, as if he wanted to grab something. However, the moment he lifted his hand, his entire body collapsed to a pool of blood and he stopped breathing.

Looking from top down, Ji Fengyan kept the coldness in her eyes. As she looked at Zhou Qi’s bloody corpse, the words that her Grandmaster had said to her Master flashed across her mind.

“Fengyan this child is born with an immortal body but her evil tendencies are too strong. I’m afraid that once she commits an offence, it will be difficult for her to ascend to the immortal world. She still needs to cultivate her body and mind so that she can restrain her killing intent.”

Ji Fengyan’s mouth curled into a smile. It was uncertain what she was feeling.

Ji Fengyan lifted her eyes again and the coldness had already dissipated and was replaced with a playful smile. She smiled as she looked at the dogs that were brought by Lei Xu all collapsing one by one. She watched those family heads who had claimed to have high social status escaping in fear and the image of people shrieking.

Lei Xu’s face was pale among the bloodiness. The horse that he was riding on was also frightened and stood up on its hind-legs, causing the dazed Lei Xu to fall to the ground.

When he landed on the pool of blood, his clean and domineering armour was immediately covered in fresh blood.

He crawled up panicky but when he turned his head—he saw the family heads who had always supported him flee. His legs trembled uncontrollably and he wanted to escape from this hell like place.

But…

“Did I allow you to leave?” Ji Fengyan’s voice was like the deep sound of a demon and it reverberated in everyone’s ears.

A thin golden string emerged from the pool of blood and forcibly wrapped around the ankles of the family heads and Lei Xu, who had attempted to escape. The string that was glowing faintly forcefully tied them to their original position. Anyone who had wanted to struggle free of the string had their ankles immediately cut off. Those people who had both their feet cut off could only fall to the ground as they hugged their ankles and gave out a miserable shriek.

Lei Xu was scared. He was really scared.

He watched as a few family heads lost both their feet from trying to break free of the golden string. He did not dare to move and his body was rooted to the ground as he shook continuously.

At this moment, Lei Xu then suddenly realised that more than a hundred soldiers that he had brought along had already been killed. Their corpses that were sliced by sharp swords were laying messily in a pool of blood. A strong aura of death and blood stench were mixed in the air and filled the hearts of the other survivors.

What exactly was this?

Lei Xu had never dreamt that the plan that he had meticulously planned out was so easily crushed by Ji Fengyan.

All the schemes that he had plotted seemed so plain and useless compared to the true capable ones.

Light footsteps were heard from the side of Lei Xu. He turned his head slightly to see that Ji Fengyan was casually taking steps towards him.

“Mistress Ji, take mercy on me! Please forgive me!” the family heads who were scared out of their wits all knelt neatly on the ground. They did not have time to bother about the stinging pain that was coming from their ankles as they knelt down to beg Ji Fengyan to let them off.

Ji Fengyan did not look at those family heads who were pleading. Instead, she slowly walked in front of Lei Xu and her mouth was still in the position of that faint smile.
