"Well, you seem to be in trouble" said the man dressed in black. His entire face was covered in a black cloth, leaving his dreadful glittering eyes.
"Huh, you know what! I've been distressed by the large-scale investigation, the loss of my useless student"
"But that disciple can be used as a pawn that can be discarded at any time right? That's why you're so upset when you find out the pawn has escaped you" cut the man in black.
Master Xi was silent. The black-clothed man's words were on target. Who would have thought that useless girl who had grown up for ten years with the hope that one day the girl returned the favor, even just released from her grasp!
He had already forced himself to be magnanimous in accepting the girl who had no Alchemy talent, giving her the same attention as his other students.
What makes him not feel too bad is that the girl has a beautiful and innocent face, suitable to be used as a pawn to trap people.
Master Xi was surprised to find that the girl he carefully guided suddenly often did not enter the lesson. More and more the girl was increasingly invisible stem of his nose. Make his blood pressure go up!
Until one day Mu Haocun came to him, saying that the girl would come out of the Morning Dew Sect, would stop being an Alchemist.
All penalties, will be borne by Mu Haocun. Master Xi until coughing blood heard him!
Who would dare to harass Mu Haocun, someone who was at the peak of Alchemy?
Everyone was just trying to curry favor with Mu Haocun. Master Xi was speechless, could only feel his heart being sliced apart!
"Useless! My struggle all this time was in vain!" master Xi said still bursting out.
"Well, whatever your reasons, you already know our agreement? Moreover, you already have no place in the Morning Dew, heh, I don't know what that person is thinking.
Why do people fail like you still get treated the same, like nothing happens. You are an Alchemist, but are you your Master?" said the man dressed in black.
His words still sounded polite but behind it was a harsh insinuation towards Master Xi.
Master Xi's face was red with anger. The man's words were very on target, which was why his anger was triggered.
Other than Master Xi, the faces of the two youths who were stealing heard not far from Master Xi and the black-clothed man also looked crimson.
How not. Everyone in the Morning Dew Sect knew Xiaoxiao. There were countless youths in the Morning Dew Sect chasing after the girl.
So that the news of his retirement that his penalty was guaranteed by Master Mu spread like a red whiz.
Shaoting and Yunhao, did not expect Master Xi to intend to utilize the girl of their dreams. Simultaneously, the two youths activated a magic tool to summon Meng Zhi.
The two young men would listen no more to the words of a traitor. May the traitor receive a very heavy reward!
Master Xi and the black-clothed man did not know if they had entered into a trap.
Master Xi and the black-clothed man were talking about their escape route.
It turned out that the black-clothed man was one of the members of a cult of the heretic sect. And they made an uproar to divert Master Yi from the Eastern Ufuk Valley.
I don't know how many members died in Master Yi's hands. The black-clothed man felt his mouth was extremely bitter considering the price to pay just to bring home this one Alchemy expert.
In the past two months, the entire sect has been in a frenzy of news that there is a group of unknown people blocking their plans. The group is also said to be hunting them.
The holders of the highest positions become very alert and move very carefully, even some projects become delayed or delayed until further notice.
It made the black-clothed male superior agree to pick up Master Xi, who was already very frightened when a massive investigation was held to catch the traitor.
After explaining their escape route, the black-clothed man along with Master Xi rushed to exit the Eastern Ufuk Valley.
But unfortunately, Meng Zhi who had gotten the signal from Shaoting and Yunhao, ambushed the black-clothed Man and Master Xi.
How shocked the black-clothed man and Master Xi were. Who would have thought, one in ten cultivators in this world was in front of them with his fangs ready to pounce on them.
The fight in the middle of the chase took place. Meng Zhi deliberately let the black-clothed man as well as Master Xi run quite far away from Shaoting and Yunhao before finally catching up with them and launching an attack.
Otherwise, the two young men would have bounced very far just because of the shockwave produced by Meng Zhi.
The black-clothed man's pupils trembled violently due to the terror he felt. The man was then about to leave Master Xi because he felt he had no hope of fighting for longer with Meng Zhi.
Master Xi already knew the path of the black-clothed man's mind, suddenly grasping his arm like a kola child. Master Xi was unwilling to be left like that by the black-clothed man.
The Jian belonging to Meng Zhi who now numbered over twenty attacked the two fugitives without mercy.
What could a lowly cultivator mavam a black-clothed man do before one of the strongest cultivators in this world? What he had was only a toy for Meng Zhi.
Even so, Meng Zhi's attack had nothing hit the vital part. Meng Zhi's goal was only to make the opponent's fighting spirit go down, so it could not give any more resistance.
Using his spiritual energy Meng Zhi moved his jian very dexterously. One jian managed to hit the black-clothed man to the ground.
Master Xi was dragged along by the man dressed in black and could only lay face down on the surface of the ground.
The man in black clothes groaned. His arm finally slipped off Master Xi, as Master Xi lost consciousness.
It was truly as weak as an Alchemy expert when faced with a physical fight!
"Why are you here" said the man dressed in black while enduring the pain.
Despite being hit with blunt parts of jian, part of his liver, gallbladder, intestines and right kidney were destroyed!
The black-clothed man coughed then liquid seeped into the cloth covering his mouth, the liquid was blood.
"Heh, I've guessed. Those people who attacked me had something to do with the black-flow sect," Meng Zhi said after seeing the reaction of the black-clothed man when she saw him.
"Well, inevitably you will divulge all the secrets you kept to me," Meng Zhi said coldly.
After that, the black-clothed man was knocked unconscious. His fate is now in the hands of his hostage, Meng Zhi.
It seemed like Meng Zhi was intending to take Mu Haocun and Master Yi off stress by 'interrogating' the black-clothed man and Master Xi.
Meng Zhi returned to pick up Shaoting and Yunhao who was standing risking their intelligence. Right, the snow started to fall hard. Shaoting and Yunhao were seen desperately clearing the snow from their heads.
They had only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Meng Zhi coming while carrying Master Xi and the unconscious black-clothed man.
...
"Where is Mei jie?" said Mu Lian. Mu Lian wiped her hands on the skirt. His gray skirt was stained with a green liquid.
"Five minutes ago Mei jie said goodbye to return to patrol," Xiaoxiao said. His hands did not stop smoothing the plants using the pestle.
When he arrived at the clinic and for the first time saw the phenomenon of degradation, Mu Lian was silent for a while.
His brain was trying to digest what he was seeing and trying to convince him that this world was not Earth, so it was only natural that there was a strange phenomenon bin magic.
However Mu Lian could not dissolve in her mind for too long as she saw Xiaoxiao, Dongshan and Yi Xue's figures seemed busy.
Han Tengfei also helped by guiding patients into the clinic. If that patient showed resistance, Han Tengfei immediately shouldered and immediately brought him to Dongshan.
Patients who still looked 'benign' were taken to Yi Xue or Xiaoxiao. Since Mu Lian was about to help Xiaoxiao and Dongshan, Mu Haocun also used this opportunity to rest at home.
Mu Haocun assumed that by helping Dongshan, there was a new variation in Mu Lian's activities.
Instead of drowning continuously in research to make the girl stressed, better take a break with other activities.
Ling Zizhou who could not stop laughing, was sent home with Mu Haocun. Mu Lian who left herself in the clinic then followed Xiaoxiao to the storage warehouse to concoct medicine.
Mu Lian had never concocted a medicine to cure the symptoms of degradation, so Xioxiao guided her. The materials used, of course Mu Lian had seen them in books.
But it turned out that after three trials, Mu Lian had not made a single cure for degradation. The girl then pondered what was her mistake.
Usut had a swipe, it turned out that Mu Lian changed the order when entering the material, so that the chemical reaction produced was not as expected and consequently Mu Lian made something else.
Because of taking it lightly, Mu Lian did not pay too much attention to the order of the ingredients.
Despite the failure, Mu Lian still put the concoction into the porcelain bottle.
Xiaoxiao advised Mu Lian to ask Mu Haocun, Mu Lian thought so.
After knowing the location of the error, Mu Lian was finally able to make a concoction to cure the symptoms of degradation.
Shortly before the snow fell, some patients who were still queuing outside were put inside the clinic.
If there are new patients, they usually come after the snow subsides. Or at the latest the next day.
"Xiao'er, Lian'er, let's eat first," said Dongshan who was standing at the door.
Dongshan's eyes contained a smile when he saw his daughter and Mu Lian was very compact.
Mu Lian and Xiaoxiao stopped their work then followed Dongshan to eat together.
Mu Lian said goodbye as the snow subsided. After all, the supply of concoction drugs is sufficient until the next day.
Dealing with the patient until the symptoms of degradation disappear completely is the task of Dongshan and Yi Xue.
Mu Lian did not think too much about unnecessary things as she was confident in Dongshan and Yi Xue's abilities. Mu Lian returned to Mu Haocun's house.
In Mu Haocun's courtyard, there was a debate. Mu Lian heard the voices of Mu Haocun, Ling Zizhou, Meng Zhi and Meimei.
"Lian'er? How's things going in there? Have you had lunch?" mu Haocun said after seeing Mu Lian emerge from behind the gate.
Ling Zizhou, Meng Zhi and Meimei stopped talking and turned their heads towards Mu Lian. Their faces were hiding something.
Mu Lian answered Mu Haocun's question later when she asked him what happened, the four of them did not say anything.
They told Mu Lian to rest. Seeing the reluctance of the four people, Mu Lian did not dig any deeper and asked Mu Haocun something else.
Mu Lian recounted her experience concocting a cure for the symptoms of degradation and showed Mu Haocun a concocted drug that she failed to make.
Mu Haocun checked the contents of the bottle. After sniffing and feeling the texture of the conic medicine with his finger, Mu Haocun's eyes sparkled.
Mu Lian looked at Mu Haocun's enthusiastic attitude towards concoction drugs so that there was growing hope that the concoction was a drug whose benefits were quite high.
"Looky! Grandpa just saw a cold relief drug as effective as this!" said Mu Haocun.
"Eh?" mu Lian said in surprise. Mu Lian thought the medicine was unique so that it made Mu Haocun excited, it turned out to be just a cold relief.
However it seemed like Meng Zhi and Meimei caught another intent from Mu Haocun's words. Who would have thought, if the concoction was truly as unique as Mu Lian had guessed.
The drug is able to make a person waste the wind. If within normal limits, the drug can indeed be referred to as a cold-relieving drug, that is according to people in this world the way is to remove the excess wind that enters the body or in other words by passing wind.
Because the effectiveness of concocted drugs is very high, the drug becomes unique because people who eat the drug racik will pass wind continuously.
As per the law, that something excessive is not good for the body. Similarly, the wind caused by Mu Lian concoction.
Complications that will arise if not treated immediately is the drug instead makes the body involuntarily expel all the air that is in the organs in the body.
Automatically oxygen levels in cells and tissues will be lower. And on Earth this phenomenon is called *Hypoxia.
The other negative side is that everyone who defecates must have a voice, and the people around him will know.
This made the person who would take Mu Lian's concoction must be ashamed of himself!
"Master Mu, don't say this." said Meng Zhi not to continue her words.
Of course Mu Haocun would use it! What else could be done to teach a lesson to such an arrogant man like Master Xi?
Meng Zhi and Meimei stared at each other. Feel sympathy for what Master Xi will experience. It is better for the grandfather to immediately divulge the secrets that exist before becoming a laughing stock for the next generation.

Note:
*Hypoxia is a condition of low oxygen levels in cells and tissues. As a result, the cells and tissues present in all parts of the body cannot function normally. Hypoxia is a condition that needs to be watched out for because if left unchecked, this condition can cause tissue death.
