“Jiang Wuhen is here again! Jiang Wuhen is here again!” Warning shouts could be heard from all around the village. A bunch of young people came rushing over with their faces full of anger. The other people behind them quickly closed their doors, as if fearful of a weasel entering their houses to steal their chickens.
Very quickly, the angry mob encircled Ling Chuxi, Ling Yichen and Jiang Wuhen.
“It seems like your popularity is not that great,” said Ling Chuxi with a smile. Such a situation arising was not the least bit surprising to Ling Chuxi. This Jiang Wuhen was practically a rascal. Wherever he went, there would never be peace. Now, it looks like he had even caused trouble all the way here. His demonic paw stretched quite far indeed.
“I never thought that everyone here would be so welcoming,” said Jiang Wuhen as he wiped his sweat nervously with a guilty smile.
“Jiang Wuhen. This time, you even dare to bring outsiders back here. Do you think that we would be reluctant to kill you?” asked the old man who was leading the mob as he looked at Jiang Wuhen coldly. The other people by the old man’s side did not look at all friendly either.
If one were to look at these people from their appearance and dressing alone, they weren’t any different from ordinary farmers. However, when they released their Battle Qi, not a single one of them was not an expert of at least Battle Qi Level 7 and beyond. Even the teenagers were different here.
It was best to not underestimate this small village. When it came to cultivation, the villagers here were who knows how many times stronger than members from ancient family clans such as the Xiao family from Dong Xing Country even.
“The two of you are here to aid Jiang Wuhen? This brat hired you guys?” asked the old man as he gave Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen a sideway glance in a somewhat unfriendly manner.
“Senior, we are not the least bit related to him, please don’t misunderstand us,” said Ling Chuxi a little helplessly as the corner of her mouth twitched. Although she was not afraid of these people’s cultivation, she was here to beg for the Crisis Reverse Pill to save someone, not to fight and most definitely not to help Jiang Wuhen cause harm to others. Her attitude had to be displayed well to give these people a good first impression.
“Since you are not related to him, then leave. We, the Rejuvenation Valley, do not welcome outsiders.” The old man could tell Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen’s cultivations were not weak, and therefore did not beat around the bush and was straightforward with them.
“Senior, we came here was because there is a really important matter we would like to seek your help with.” Ling Chuxi had not even brought up her request, yet she was rejected already. Naturally, she would not give up so easily.
“Since you were all able to find Rejuvenation Valley, perhaps it could also be considered fate. If there is anything you need, just ask for it directly,” instructed the old man indifferently as he looked at Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen covered in dust.
“My second grandfather is severely injured and only a Crisis Reverse Pill can save him. Please, senior, show us your grace,” pleaded Ling Chuxi sincerely.
“You know about the Crisis Reverse Pill?” The old man took a deep look at Ling Chuxi and revealed nothing more than a guarded expression. The expressions of the people around him also changed and the atmosphere tensed up immediately.
“My master is Mu Liufeng.” Ling Chuxi initially hesitated for a moment as to whether she should reveal Mu Liufeng’s name, but after some thought, she still decided to come clean. If Mu Liufeng had any animosity with Rejuvenation Valley, he would have told her himself beforehand.
“So it turns out it is him. Very well. I am Su Yizhen and I have had the fate to meet your master once,” replied the old man with a nod. The animosity earlier on was no longer there.
“Senior, my second grandfather’s heart and meridians are severely wounded and only a Crisis Reverse Pill is able to save him. So, no matter what the price is, as long as you tell me, I will do my best to achieve it,” said Ling Chuxi immediately, sensing the changes in the old man’s expression.
“There is some history between your master and Rejuvenation Valley, so logically speaking, I should help you out. It is just that… procuring a Crisis Reverse Pill is no small matter. I am also unable to make a decision on this,” said Su Yizhen with a little helplessness.
“Then, who can make a decision on this?” asked Ling Chuxi immediately and urgently.
