The male disciples walked forward dejectedly before stopping.
"Damn, what bad luck, ran into so bad spirits, how did the Spirit Stones disappear."
The Outer Sect male disciple held his nose, which was bleeding non-stop, making him look very disheveled.
He had never been this unlucky since joining the sect, and the most frustrating part was, he still didn’t know where his Spirit Stones had gone.
Earlier, he suspected that female disciple, but upon thinking it over, it seed impossible. That junior sister had eyes as innocent as a fawn’s, making one want to protect her, she couldn’t possibly have done anything.
"Senior Brother, let’s not worry about this for now. We should finish the task that the master instructed us. It’s already afternoon, let’s quickly sell the Elixir Pills."
These Outer Sect disciples were under the tutelage of a Manager, Master Tan Yi of the Lonely Moon Sea.
Master Tan Yi was originally a disciple under Elder Yue of Moon Peak. Because he knew so alchemy, he was sent to the Outer Sect by Elder Yue to oversee the production of Elixir Pills.
Relying on his master being Elder Yue and his alchemy skills, Master Tan Yi always held himself in high regard among the managers of the Outer Sect, and his disciples were equally arrogant.
According to the rules of the Outer Sect, managers must not use their position for personal gain, nor sell Elixir Pills privately.
But Master Tan Yi, in his greed for small gains and dissatisfaction with his stipend, secretly had his disciples sell Elixir Pills in Moon City under their own nas.
This Outer Sect male disciple, due to so familial relations with Master Tan Yi, often helped him sell Elixir Pills.
This ti, Master Tan Yi had him sell a kind of Seventh-rank Continuation Pill.
This Elixir Pill could quickly repair broken ridians in serious injuries, a rare and sought-after redy, each costing twenty pieces of Low-level Spirit Stones.
Although the Outer Sect disciple had a broken nose, he considered it a stroke of luck that the Elixir Pills were still with him.
He gathered himself and started selling at the street corner.
As he had helped Master Tan Yi sell pills multiple tis before, although the price was high, the efficacy was good, thus he had a steady clientele. Soon, disciples from both the Inner and Outer Sects ca to buy pills from him, selling ten out of twelve pills in no ti.
His storage bag, which was empty earlier, quickly filled with over two hundred Spirit Stones.
Just as he was about to sell the last two Vitality Continuation Pills, two or three disciples hurriedly ca over, supporting another disciple.
The one being supported looked pale and was having difficulty breathing, clearly suffering from serious injuries.
"I heard there are Continuation Pills here. My junior brother accidentally went into Deviation while training, his ridians are broken and he’s in great danger. I need a pill."
One of them heard that soone nearby was selling Continuation Pills and rushed over, hoping to stop the bleeding before seeking dical treatnt.
Seeing soone needing the pills to save a life, the disciples who wanted to buy the remaining two pills backed off.
The Outer Sect disciple’s eyes rolled as he thought it over.
"Senior Brother, I have the Continuation Pill, but it will be forty Spirit Stones each."
Having lost over a hundred Spirit Stones out of nowhere today, he saw an opportunity to profit from their desperation.
The disciples wanting to buy the pill were filled with anger.
But seeing their junior brother in a critical condition, they gritted their teeth, gathered the Spirit Stones, bought the pill, and fed it to the injured disciple.
Unexpectedly, shortly after taking the Elixir, the injured disciple let out a wild scream, convulsed, foad at the mouth, and writhed on the ground as though suffering from a seizure.
"Bastard! What kind of pill did you give my junior brother?"
The purchasing disciples, eyes bloodshot with rage, grabbed the Outer Sect disciples.
It wasn’t just them; those who bought Elixir Pills earlier also surrounded them.
What nonsense, calling it a Continuation Pill, it was actually poison.
Luckily they hadn’t taken it yet, otherwise, they might end up like the disciple with broken ridians.
"Se...Senior Brother, let’s talk this over...I sold genuine pills, all refined by my master...Master Tan Yi."
Seeing the situation turn bad, Master Tan Yi’s disciples wanted to flee.
At this mont, soone in the crowd shouted loudly.
"Don’t let these sellers of fake pills go, they’ll scam others tomorrow if not today. Beat them to death, these sellers of fake pills, these lackeys."
This voice added fuel to the already raging fire of the crowd’s anger.
The crowd rushed forward without another word, fists like hailstones rained down from above.
The Outer Sect disciples had no ti to escape, pinned to the ground, overwheld by a flurry of punches and kicks, their cries for rcy growing weaker.
"Junior Brother, Junior Brother, are you alright?"
The disciples who had bought "Fake Elixirs" supported the one with broken ridians, heartbroken.
Just then, a hand extended over.
"Who’s there!"
They sensed a faint fragrance approach, seeing a beautiful young girl squatting down to check the injured disciple’s condition.
The girl wore pale blue training clothes and had a token at her waist, her eyes like new moons, bright red lips and white teeth, like a cool breeze in the sumr, exceptionally pleasant to look at.
The girl didn’t answer.
Her fingers, slender like scallions, accurately pressed on her junior brother’s body.
The junior brother, who had been foaming at the mouth, imdiately relaxed.
Ye Lingyue massaged several of his acupoints and transferred so White Tripod Breath into his ridians, repairing his ridians that had snapped due to Deviation, one by one.
The complexion of the disciple with broken ridians gained a trace of blood color, his breathing cald considerably.
"Senior Brothers, this young junior brother should be fine now. Find a stretcher, move carefully, and take him to the nearest pharmacist. He just needs to take so restorative Elixir Pills. The pills need not be high-grade, just third or fourth-grade ones."
Ye Lingyue paid no mind to the amazed gazes of the Outer Sect disciples. She bowed and then departed gracefully.
This junior sister was really beautiful.
The Outer Sect disciples took a mont to regain their senses.
The face of the man who had bought the Elixir Pills flushed red, slapping his forehead hard.
"What are you waiting for, quickly do as she says."
The crowd ca to their senses, hurriedly made a makeshift stretcher, and rushed towards the nearest dicine House.
As for Master Tan Yi’s disciples, they lay groaning at the side, ignored by everyone.
