So many dicine apprentices could simply go missing or be intercepted just like that?
“Perhaps this is just an excuse Lan Zhengfeng found, and he never really put his heart into searching for our dicine apprentices.”
“Nonsensical ravings.”
The elder glared at him upon hearing his words and scolded him even more.
“With the lives of Lan Zhengfeng’s entire family in our hands, would he dare to act recklessly?”
The situation in Daqing Kingdom has now beco very subtle. He had received ssages from the Luoyang Residence before, suggesting that soone may be targeting the Luoyang-Shao family, which in turn affected them.
If that’s the case, then they must investigate more thoroughly.
“Soone must have intercepted the dicine apprentices this ti. You must dispatch soone imdiately to investigate and make sure to capture the troublemakers.”
“This… Elder, aren’t you making a mountain out of a molehill?”
The man in a white robe looked up at the elder, feeling it was entirely unnecessary.
He always felt it was Lan Zhengfeng’s fault, that even if the apprentices were indeed intercepted, it was definitely because Lan Zhengfeng’s people were too careless in their actions, thus being discovered.
“What do you know?”
The elder glared at the man in the white robe upon hearing this.
“With the situation in the world unsettled, if it’s only Lan Zhengfeng’s fault, that’s still manageable, but if…” If there were any complications from the Luoyang Residence’s side, that would be troubleso.
So no matter what, they must get to the bottom of this.
“If I tell you to investigate, then investigate, what are you babbling about?” he said.
“Yes, Elder, your subordinate will dispatch n to investigate right away,” the man in the white robe replied, not daring to say anything more.
“Dispatch whom? For this matter, you two will personally lead the investigation,” the elder ordered as he looked at him.
“Uh.”
The man in the white robe choked, speechless.
Even the other man in a white robe beside him felt that the elder was overreacting. For such a minor issue, did they really need to investigate personally?
But the elder had already given his orders, and it was not for them to argue against, so they could only comply.
“Yes, Elder, your subordinate and Nineteenth will depart imdiately and head to Ming Gu County.”
anwhile, as the elder was speaking to the two white-robed people, Qian Jiyun, escorting An Jiuyue, arrived in a small cave through another passageway.
Inside, there were many tables with nurous porcelain bottles and dicinal furnaces on them, clearly a place ant for refining dicinal pills.
Rows of cabinets held even more boxes.
“The contents here should be dicinal materials, and they all seem to be poisonous,” An Jiuyue remarked just from the sll in the air, figuring out what everything in the cave was for.
She took out two simple face masks from her space and passed one to Qian Jiyun.
“Put this on; it is too easy to be poisoned otherwise.”
Although they possessed Original Soul energy and Demonic energy, they still had to be cautious in an environnt surrounded by toxins.
After Qian Jiyun put on the mask, he led An Jiuyue to a table that contained many dicinal pill prescriptions and so half-written drafts.
He didn’t understand prescriptions and could only look to An Jiuyue for guidance.
“An Jiuyue, can you see what this is?”
An Jiuyue reached out and picked up one of the prescriptions to examine, and her expression imdiately turned grim.
Although the prescription was ssy, she could still make out that it was a formula for refining Puppet Poison.
“To think it’s Puppet Poison; I really underestimated them.”
“What is Puppet Poison?” Qian Jiyun enquired.
“It’s a poison used to create puppets. If successful, imrsing a living person in this poison for a few days and nights would turn them into the desired puppet, completely at their command.”
