Seeing Yu Renxiong fall from the sky, Ye Mi Yuan shivered in fear and was hit in the chest by Mr. Xie, crashing directly into a wall seven or eight ters away.
Bang!
Ye Mi Yuan hit the wall and fell to the ground, covering his chest, struggling to get up, and vomited a large mouthful of blood.
"Ye Mi Yuan, did you think about falling into my hands when you broke my legs? Now you’re no longer an arresting official of the court. Even if I kill you, the court won’t pursue it. At most, your family will file a case, and then the court will just mark it," Mr. Xie sneered as he stepped forward.
If an arresting official of the court is killed, it must be investigated because it concerns the court’s reputation, and if the case can’t be solved, the Arresting Departnt will be held accountable.
It’s a bottom line not to kill arresting officials arbitrarily, agreed upon by the court and major sects of the martial world. Anyone who crosses this line, should not bla the court for deploying troops.
No matter how powerful the sects in the martial world are, they can’t contend with the army of the court. Moreover, the court also has experts. Apart from the super first-class sects, which sect in the world is a match for the court’s army?
This is why Lin Miao didn’t kill Ye Mi Yuan directly; he didn’t want to provoke the court as an enemy. Although they might not go to all lengths for just one Ye Mi Yuan, the risk was too big.
But it’s different now; Ye Mi Yuan has been removed from the Arresting Departnt. He is no longer an arresting official.
In this way.
Whether Ye Mi Yuan lives or dies has nothing to do with the Arresting Departnt.
"Mr. Xie, although I’m not an arresting official, I am a Ye Family mber. If you dare to touch , the Ye Family will definitely not spare you!" Ye Mi Yuan sat on the ground, his mouth full of blood, saying fiercely.
"The Ye Family, haha." Mr. Xie sneered, Ye Shengyuan’s youngest son was calculated to death by Dong Jia, this is a blood feud.
Dong Jia will definitely not spare the Ye Family, but previously, for the trial of the "Path to Sainthood", they lay dormant and hidden.
Now Dong Jia has completed the trial, has the status of "Nationally Selected Physician", and an official position, still afraid of a Ye Family?
"Mr. Xie, you dare..."
Mr. Xie didn’t plan to tornt the opponent because Lin Miao had already broken the opponent’s limbs. He now just wanted Ye Mi Yuan’s life.
Lin Miao had promised him that Ye Mi Yuan would be left for him to kill.
Ye Mi Yuan clutched his throat, blood gushing out between his fingers, as Mr. Xie’s slash directly severed his windpipe.
Yu Renxiong saw Ye Mi Yuan dead in front of him, and he knew that tonight he could not escape this fate either.
He closed his eyes, ready to die.
The disciples of the Green Blade Sect in the rear hall were all dumbfounded, those afraid of death were pale, trembling like sieves.
These people usually only bullied others, they did countless evils of bullying the weak, and now, karma has co, they also tasted the feeling of being "controlled" by others.
"Miaoxue, Shisan, Heaven has the virtue of a good life, send those inside to reincarnation." Lin Miao didn’t want to ask anymore, even if asked, they would not co up with anything, besides, it wasn’t his business, why bother?
"Yes, Mr. Lin!" Si Miaoxue responded and floated into the rear hall.
A mont later.
All disciples of the Green Blade Sect t their end with no exception, all sent to the Yellow Springs.
"What about this Yu surna?"
"Along with them."
"Okay." Si Miaoxue slamd with a palm, the final breath of life in the Green Blade Sect elder Yu Renxiong ceased, turning into a cold corpse.
"Dong Jia, how to deal with the corpses of these people?"
"Burn them."
"Okay."
Mr. Xie understood Lin Miao, before burning the bodies, he searched all the disciples of the Green Blade Sect. All valuables were brought out.
Among them were also items from the elder Yu Renxiong and Ye Mi Yuan.
The disciples of the Green Blade Sect weren’t poor, the valuables found were quite substantial, besides broken silver coins and rings, identity jade, there were also many silver notes, one must carry so silver coins outside for reassurance.
Add it up, it was nearly ten thousand taels of silver, half of which was contributed by the elder Yu Renxiong.
Broken silver coins are easy to alter shape with just a rub, any marks would be gone. As for silver notes.
The easiest to mark but can be spent elsewhere; as long as it’s not within the Green Blade Sect’s power range, it won’t be traceable, once redeed and destroyed by the note exchange office, it becos untraceable.
A horse can’t get fat without night grazing, and a man can’t get rich without unexpected wealth.
Although this amount of money isn’t much to Lin Miao now, but this kind of sum is a fortune to many people.
"Old Xie, you take two thousand taels in silver notes, the rest give to Miaoxue." Lin Miao directly distributed the money.
Mr. Xie naturally had no objection.
"Dong Jia, see, this was found on Yu Renxiong." Among a pile of bits, Mr. Xie found a porcelain bottle, quickly took it to Lin Miao.
"What is this?"
"Master, I’ve seen this porcelain bottle at an auction; it’s ant to hold elixirs, but I’m not sure which kind of elixir is inside." Mr. Xie said.
Elixir?
Lin Miao naturally had heard of it, but elixirs are extrely sought after and rare commodities that ordinary people can’t access.
Even as a physician, he may not have access to them, as alchemy and pharmacy are two different crafts.
Elixirs can indeed cure illnesses and save lives, but they are primarily supplied to martial artists; ordinary people can’t afford them, and they might even be poisonous to them.
Elixirs are very expensive; even the most ordinary "Nourishing Essence" elixir costs over a thousand silver coins each. How many can afford it?
Usually, Muscle Changing, Bone Refining, and even Blood Fusion Realm are mainly treated with herbal baths or tonic dicines; eating elixirs is too expensive and wasteful.
Because the dicinal power of the elixirs is too strong, so people can’t endure it at all; those who can endure, mostly waste it.
Not cost-effective.
Herbal baths are better; they work gradually and subtly, and damage to the body is minimal.
Generally, at the ridian Passage Realm, if you want to advance further, elixirs are needed.
Elixirs can quickly heal injuries, restore combat power swiftly, and most precious of all, help with breakthroughs and promotions.
"Mr. Lin, may I take a look?" Si Miaoxue reached out.
Lin Miao handed over the porcelain bottle.
Si Miaoxue shook the bottle, hearing a "ding ding" sound inside, indicating there was a pill inside.
She pulled out the cork stopper.
A black-red elixir the size of a longan rolled out, perfectly round and polished.
She sniffed it lightly, catching a faint fragrance; indescribable, but it stirred an inner excitent.
How magical.
"This should be a ridian Opening Elixir. A few days ago, one was auctioned in Li Hen City, and it fetched a high price of eighty thousand silver notes! Could this be the sa one?" Si Miaoxue said.
"What’s the use of a ridian Opening Elixir?" Lin Miao asked, as he was lacking knowledge in this area; elixirs in dicine are a separate faction. Although related to traditional dicine, their goals differ from the practice of healing and saving lives.
Their primary aim is gaining power and even immortality through alchemy.
Traditional healers never pursue immortality; they believe human lifespan is limited and cannot escape birth, aging, sickness, and death.
Once reaching a certain age, even without illness or disaster, one will still die.
Thus, that expert failed to reach sainthood through "elixirs," not just due to "Carefree Powder," but also due to conflicting beliefs, eventually being forsaken and driven mad.
"The ridian Opening Elixir can increase the chance of breakthrough promotion to ridian Passage Realm by about twenty percent. After entering the ridian Passage Realm, it can aid in breaking through minor realms. If one reaches the Peak of Lower Grade ridian Passage Realm, consuming a ridian Opening Elixir has a high probability of advancing to Middle Grade ridian Passage Realm. Every breakthrough in minor realms post-ridian Passage Realm is difficult, especially for older martial artists; progress is tough, and the elixir is a hope for them." Si Miaoxue explained.
"I see." Lin Miao nodded, understanding why Yu Renxiong spent eighty thousand silver notes on this ridian Opening Elixir — he wanted to push his cultivation forward.
What a pity!
Now it serves others.
"Miaoxue, is this elixir useful to you?" Lin Miao asked.
"Yes, it should at least save half a year of hard cultivation, aning the kind with Mr. Lin’s guidance..." Si Miaoxue said shyly.
Lin Miao’s face reddened slightly; fortunately, no one was around, and Sun Youwei wasn’t here, or else her thoughts might have wandered.
"Here, take it. Use it at the appropriate ti," Lin Miao directly handed Si Miaoxue the ridian Opening Elixir.
He was only at Middle Grade Blood Fusion Realm, far from the ridian Passage Realm; besides, even without the elixir, he could advance to the ridian Passage Realm.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin!" Si Miaoxue happily kept it; this ridian Opening Elixir is worth eighty thousand silver notes, even if Yu Renxiong overpaid, the price isn’t lower than sixty thousand silver notes, making it priceless.
Such a precious elixir Yu Renxiong dared not randomly hide, only carrying it with him for safety, but ended up benefiting others.
A bonfire set up, the body placed on it while Mr. Xie fetched a bucket of scented oil from the temple’s kitchen, poured it on the body, and lit a fire.
Blazing flas.
Instantly, a towering fire ignited.
Deep in the wilderness mountains, even if soone sees the towering flas, no one dares to investigate in the middle of the night.
Burn it all, problem solved.
The fire burned until dawn before dying down; over a dozen bodies turned to ashes, leaving the Green Blade Sect unable to find any traces.
The weaponry of these people was also buried in a deep pit by Mr. Xie, never leaving Green Blade Sect a clue.
Si Miaoxue and Yue Shisan departed at night; the Green Blade Sect likely won’t send a second wave, ensuring the road ahead is safe. Even if encountering so petty thieves, Lin Miao, Mr. Xie, and sisters Lianxin and Liansuo can handle them.
