CHAPTER 325: CHAPTER 325: SILENCING THE LU FAMILY_1

"Still cursing me?"

The Mansion Lord’s face instantly darkened. "Pack your things. I’m taking you to the Inner Hall right away."

Ren Wushuang shook her head. "I won’t go. What’s so good about that spooky place?"

"You’re a grown woman now. You can’t stay by this old man’s side forever, can you?"

"Today, you have to go, no matter what."

"That’s the only reason I came."

The Mansion Lord said sternly.

"HUMPH!"

Ren Wushuang snorted coldly, turned her head away, and pouted, sulking.

The Mansion Lord felt a deep sense of helplessness.

Suddenly, his eyes brightened. He looked at Qin Feiyang and gave him a subtle glance.

Qin Feiyang looked a bit troubled and mouthed silently, Isn’t this a bad idea?

The Mansion Lord shot him a threatening glare.

Qin Feiyang complained inwardly. This was a matter between grandfather and granddaughter; why did they have to drag him into it?

"Sigh!"

He sighed inwardly, then said with a smile, "Sister, the Mansion Lord is right. You can’t stay by his side forever. You should go!"

After a pause, Qin Feiyang added, "If you really detest that Lu Xingchen, just smack him. He definitely won’t come to bother you again."

"PFFT!"

Ren Wushuang couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

What kind of terrible idea was that? He was surprisingly creative.

However, her frustrated mood lightened considerably.

She looked at the Mansion Lord and nodded. "Alright, I’ll go. But you must take good care of yourself while you’re alone here."

The Mansion Lord glanced gratefully at Qin Feiyang, then looked at Ren Wushuang and said with a smile, "Although I’m old, I’m still in robust health. So, don’t worry!"

Qin Feiyang’s eyes sparkled as he said with a smile, "Sister, wait for me a moment."

With that, before Ren Wushuang could react, he opened a teleportation portal and returned directly to the second alchemy room.

「Several hundred breaths later,」

He had concocted two Potential Pills and one Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill, placing them in a jade box.

Then, he swiftly opened another teleportation portal, appeared in the gazebo, and handed the jade box to Ren Wushuang. "This is for you."

"What’s this?"

Ren Wushuang opened the jade box, and dazzling, brilliant rays of light burst forth.

"AH!"

"Why are there two Elixir Patterns?"

Ren Wushuang exclaimed in astonishment.

"Two?"

The Mansion Lord was stunned and quickly leaned over to look.

He wouldn’t have known without looking, but one glance gave him a shock!

It really was a Top Grade medicinal pill with two Elixir Patterns!

Moreover, he had never seen any of these three pills! Two of them were entirely blood-red, as if congealed from blood, and exuded a peculiar, intense fragrance; these were the Potential Pills. The other pill was earthy-yellow. At first glance, it looked like a mud pellet, but its surface was smooth and flawless!

"This Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill can enhance the cultivation of a War King or War Emperor and can be consumed at any time."

"These two Potential Pills can open the fourth and fifth layers of the Door of Potential, but you need to reach the Nine-Star War Emperor level before you can consume them," Qin Feiyang explained softly.

"Such medicinal pills actually exist?"

Ren Wushuang’s eyes sparkled with wonder.

The Mansion Lord’s aged eyes widened in utter disbelief.

Qin Feiyang whispered, "Sister, you mustn’t reveal the existence of these two types of pills to anyone."

He added, "Also, the three Potential Elixirs I gave you earlier can only be consumed after you reach the Nine-Star War Emperor level."

"Okay."

Ren Wushuang nodded, put away the jade box, and said with a smile, "Feiyang, thank you."

Qin Feiyang replied, "We’re family; there’s no need for such formalities. Besides, if anyone should be saying thank you, it should be me."

"Do you mean those medicinal ingredients..." Ren Wushuang wondered.

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Ren Wushuang couldn’t help but smile.

So, the medicinal ingredients Qin Feiyang had asked her to help gather were for these two types of pills. This ’younger brother’ of hers was truly cunning. If the people from the Treasure Pavilion found out, they would probably cough up blood from anger.

"What charades are you two playing at?"

The Mansion Lord looked at them suspiciously.

"Nothing."

They both shook their heads simultaneously.

There’s definitely something going on, the Mansion Lord grumbled to himself but didn’t press further. He said with a smile, "Shuang’er, go and pack your things!"

"Alright."

Ren Wushuang nodded and turned towards the pavilion.

The Mansion Lord asked in a low voice, "Qin Feiyang, where did you get these Elixir Formulas?"

"Um..."

"White-Eyed Wolf, we should get going."

"Senior, we’ll take our leave!"

Qin Feiyang opened a teleportation portal and bolted through it without a backward glance.

"Old man, we’ll meet again!"

The Wolf King waved its paw and hurriedly skedaddled.

"HUH!"

The Mansion Lord was taken aback.

"You two little rascals."

Once he recovered, he couldn’t help but curse under his breath, yet a smile touched his old eyes as he murmured, Interesting little fellows.

「On the main street in front of the Treasure Pavilion.」

Qin Feiyang and the Wolf King appeared out of thin air.

"Look, it’s Qin Feiyang and that Rogue Wolf!"

"They’re here again."

"What are they planning to do in East City this time?"

"Using teleportation portals every time is too extravagant."

By now, the man and wolf were considered celebrities in East City. Their appearance instantly drew a great deal of attention.

"Extravagant?"

Hearing the discussions, Qin Feiyang’s face couldn’t help but twitch. Of the ten teleportation portals he had bought last time, he had hardly used them, and now only four remained. Everyone only saw the glamorous side; they had no idea how helpless he felt. If it weren’t for the great distance between the Holy Temple and East City, he would be truly reluctant to use the teleportation portals.

"Greetings, Master Qin."

The two guards at the entrance, seeing Qin Feiyang approach, hurriedly cupped their fists in salute.

"COUGH, COUGH!"

The Wolf King coughed drily, its displeasure evident.

The two guards exchanged a glance, feeling utterly helpless. They cupped their fists again and said, "Greetings, Uncle Wolf. Uncle Wolf, please come in."

"HUMPH!"

The Wolf King snorted through its nose and strode arrogantly into the Treasure Pavilion.

Qin Feiyang said with a smile, "He’s just being mischievous. Please don’t take it to heart."

"Not at all, not at all."

The two guards waved their hands repeatedly.

This man and wolf were currently Steward Yin’s favored guests. How could they dare to mind?

Qin Feiyang shook his head with a smile and entered the Treasure Pavilion.

Qin Dieyi came forward to greet him, smiling. "You’re here."

Qin Feiyang looked at Qin Dieyi. Noticing she wasn’t in her work attire, he said with a smile, "Miss Dieyi, you seem a bit different today!"

Qin Dieyi said, "I’m now staying by Steward Yin’s side, helping him manage the affairs of the Treasure Pavilion."

Qin Feiyang was momentarily stunned, then laughed. "So, Miss Dieyi has been promoted! Congratulations!"

"It’s all thanks to you."

A hint of gratitude shone in Qin Dieyi’s eyes as she asked, "Are you here to see Steward Yin?"

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Qin Dieyi said, "You can go up yourself. He’s in the VIP room on the third floor."

"Alright. We’ll chat another day."

Qin Feiyang smiled, then grabbed the Wolf King and headed for the third floor.

The Wolf King complained, "You’re going to discuss business, why are you dragging me along?"

"What do you think?"

Qin Feiyang glared at it. If he let it roam freely in the Treasure Pavilion, there was no telling what kind of trouble it might stir up.

「VIP Room!」

As Qin Feiyang walked in, Yin Yuanming rose to greet him.

"Brother Qin, I’ve been looking forward to your arrival as one wishes for the stars and the moon! Finally, you’re here."

"Come, come, this way, please."

Yin Yuanming warmly ushered Qin Feiyang to a nearby tea table, where they sat opposite each other.

Qin Feiyang smiled faintly and asked, "Has there been any movement from the Lu Family in the past half-month?"

"Just mentioning them makes me furious."

"Did you know?"

"A couple of days ago, Steward Lu even came to the Treasure Pavilion and purchased a large batch of medicinal ingredients," Yin Yuanming said indignantly.

"You sold them to him?" Qin Feiyang frowned.

Yin Yuanming replied helplessly, "You hadn’t given me a definitive answer. Could I refuse to sell?"

"Alright, what’s past is past. I came this time specifically to impose a blockade on the Lu Family."

Qin Feiyang took out a jade box and placed it on the tea table.

Yin Yuanming’s eyes lit up instantly. He grabbed the jade box and opened it, revealing two blood-red elixirs lying inside.

A dazzling Elixir Pattern was visible on them!

"Why is there only one Elixir Pattern?"

Yin Yuanming had been very excited, but his brow furrowed immediately upon seeing only one Elixir Pattern.

Qin Feiyang said with a smile, "For this type of elixir, even with only one Elixir Pattern, it is still priceless."

"HUH?"

Yin Yuanming was taken aback.

Qin Feiyang said, "I’ve never auctioned this type of elixir before..."

Before he could finish, Yin Yuanming frowned and interjected, "You’ve never auctioned it, yet you claim it’s priceless? Are you toying with me?"

"UH!"

Qin Feiyang was startled, then shook his head and chuckled.

"Let me show you something."

Qin Feiyang pulled open the collar of his robe, and a red, door-shaped mark immediately entered Yin Yuanming’s sight.

"This is..."

Yin Yuanming’s brow furrowed tightly. He felt as if he recognized this door-shaped mark but couldn’t quite recall what it was at that moment.

"The Potential Mark," Qin Feiyang prompted.

"That’s right!"

"It’s the Potential Mark!"

Yin Yuanming shot up from his seat, staring at the door-shaped mark, his old eyes filled with disbelief.

This young man had actually opened the Door of Potential! No, wait! He first took out the elixirs, then revealed the Potential Mark. Could it be that these two elixirs...

Yin Yuanming abruptly lowered his head, staring intently at the two Potential Elixirs in the jade box, his eyes blazing with a brilliant light.

Qin Feiyang adjusted his clothes and said with a smile, "These are the Potential Elixirs you’ve always wanted to know about."

There are actually elixirs in this world capable of opening the Door of Potential?

Yin Yuanming felt as if he were dreaming; it seemed too unreal. He had been a prominent figure in Spirit State for so many years; what hadn’t he seen? Yet, this was the first time he had ever heard of something so incredible.

He swallowed and looked up at Qin Feiyang, his heart pounding with extreme tension. "Are you sure?" he asked, his voice strained.

If these Potential Elixirs could truly open the Door of Potential, then they weren’t just priceless; they were absolute, invaluable treasures!

"I’m certain."

"I, Lu Hong, and White-Eyed Wolf have all opened the third layer of the Door of Potential," Qin Feiyang nodded and said with a smile.

Steward Yin felt as if struck by a bolt from the blue. He slumped into his chair and waved his hand, saying, "Let this old man calm down for a moment."

It was too shocking. For a moment, he found it genuinely difficult to process.

Qin Feiyang wasn’t in a hurry. He sipped his tea while telepathically asking the Wolf King about its experiences gathering medicinal ingredients over the past half-month.

「A short while later,」

Steward Yin abruptly stood up, grabbed the jade box, and hurried away.

「Before long!」

An explosive, sensational piece of news began to spread like wildfire throughout the entire State City at an astonishing speed.

The Grand Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion had personally issued an order: effective immediately, all Treasure Pavilions in all cities were to completely blockade the Lu Family!
