Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 140
Chapter 0140 Desolate!
Old Man Chen frowned and nodded. “I believe you! It’s a fate that you and Mr. Iron Staff met in such a situation! However, the death of the Nine Peaks Camel Elder has already attracted the attention of the Black Tortoise Palace. Everywhere they go, they are capturing Mr. Iron Staff. The Black Tortoise Palace in the Southern Mountain Manor is even more powerful. I’m afraid that something unexpected will happen to Mr. Iron Staff here!”
Qin Fei smiled indifferently and said, “Master, are you afraid of the Black Tortoise Palace?”
“Nonsense! The people of our Pill Masters Association have never been afraid of them! However, Mr. Iron Staff’s killing of the Nine Peaks Camel Old Man has already caused a sensation. It’s always good for us to be careful!”
Old Man Chen glared at Qin Fei and was very angry at his words.
“Master, there’s something you don’t know. Apart from being a martial artist, the Nine Peaks Camel Elder is also a demon cultivator!” Qin Fei tossed out a heavy pound message.
“What? He’s actually cultivating demons? How is this possible?” Old Man Chen cried out in shock.
“Really, how could I lie to you about this? It took a lot of effort to fight him that day. I believe you also know how the Chaos Stone Hill was destroyed, right? If he wasn’t a demon cultivator, the iron staff could have killed him with a single finger.” Qin Fei looked sideways at Old Man Chen.
Old Man Chen’s expression changed. After thinking for a moment, he took a deep breath and said, “Sure enough, I was surprised at that time. If it was really Mr. Iron Staff who killed the Nine Peaks Camel Old Man, logically speaking, it wouldn’t have taken so much effort. If the Nine Peaks were cultivators, then it would make sense!”
All martial practitioners knew very well how difficult it was to deal with demon cultivators. Although their strength was not much different from martial practitioners of the same realm, their abnormal resilience was beyond the reach of martial practitioners. Even the Iron Staff Knight would have to expend a lot of effort to kill the Nine Peaks.
He could imagine how tragic the situation was.
‘”This is easy! The demon cultivator’s body has obvious characteristics. We can put in some effort on this. I believe that the Black Tortoise Palace will give up on avenging the Nine Peaks in a few days!” Old Man Chen’s expression relaxed.
He stood up and said to Qin Fei, “You guys eat first, then go to the Pill Master Association to look for Ao Tian and the others. I’ll go out and meet some old friends to settle the matter with Nine Peaks first!”
With that, he turned around and left.
Qin Fei hurriedly shouted, “Master, pay the bill first!”
“Brat, you still want to blackmail me at this time. I really shouldn’t have taken you as my disciple!” Old Man Chen cursed and walked to the counter to settle the bill. Qin Fei hurriedly shouted, “Shopkeeper, another two kilograms of beef …”
After eating and drinking enough, Qin Fei and the Iron Staff Guest walked towards the Pill Master Association. It was very easy to find, so they could find someone to inquire about it.
Qin Fei came to the entrance of the Southern Mountain Prefecture’s Pill Master Association and revealed his identity. The guard at the entrance looked at him strangely and led the two of them inside. He arrived at the entrance of a remote and dilapidated courtyard and turned around to leave.
Qin Fei felt that the guards of the Prefecture City Branch really didn’t know how to be polite, or perhaps it was because of Zhen Ya’s arrogance that they were so indifferent.
However, he was too lazy to bother about it. He pushed open the dilapidated courtyard door and made an unpleasant creaking sound.
“Big Senior Brother!”
As soon as they entered, they saw Ao Tian and the others sitting on stone stools in the courtyard. Their expressions were extremely ugly, as if they had suffered some grievances.
“Sixth Junior Brother, you’re back? Where’s the Guild Leader?” Seeing Qin Fei arrive safely, Ao Tian hurriedly stood up and looked at him excitedly.
“Master has something to do. Come back later. Hello, senior brothers. Everyone has worked hard!” Qin Fei looked at everyone apologetically. If it weren’t for him saving Zhu Li, they wouldn’t be in such a sorry state.
“It’s fine.” The four of them smiled and looked at the Iron Staff Guest. Their eyes were filled with admiration. That was an Earthly Martial Realm expert. This was the first time they had seen such an expert.
However, this was someone else’s territory. Everyone remembered Old Man Chen’s instructions and didn’t dare to go against them. They only nodded respectfully to the Iron Staff Guest.
“Big Senior Apprentice Brother, I see that your faces are not good. Are you tired from the journey?” Qin Fei looked at everyone strangely. Eldest Senior Brother’s face was filled with injustice. Second Senior Brother drank straight and looked very unhappy. Third Senior Brother rarely revealed a man’s side. He did not pinch his orchid fingers and raised his beautiful eyebrows. He seemed to be very dissatisfied. As for Fourth Senior Brother’s radish head, he was drooling as he teased an ant on the ground. However, he could tell that his eyes were filled with anger.
The other followers also looked righteous and indignant, as if something big had happened.
“Sixth Junior Brother, look at this courtyard. What does it look like?” Second Senior Brother drunkenly pointed at the courtyard and said, “One word … dirty, messy, poor!”
Qin Fei already had a deep understanding of Second Brother’s ignorance. He was too lazy to remind him of his sickness. He looked at the courtyard and frowned. Indeed, there were several piles of rubbish here. Moreover, it smelled loud and messy everywhere. It felt like it was used for piling up debris. How could it look like a place where people lived?
This is not right. How can everyone be considered guests? Furthermore, they are members of an association. Aren’t the people from the Southern Mountain Prefecture Branch blaming everyone too much? Or are they so poor that they don’t have a good place to live? Will mages be poor?
What a joke …
In that case, there was only one possibility. Combined with the expressions of the senior brothers, the people from the Southern Mountain Prefecture Branch were deliberately making things difficult for everyone.
“They stink to death. No, we have to move out of here. Let’s go find them to reason with!” Third Senior Brother said with a demonic voice and smelled his sleeves, causing him to vomit.
“Sixth Junior Brother, we’ve been here for three days. The other party has arranged for us to stay here. They don’t care about anything. We also went out to buy our own food. They simply treat us like air!” Second Senior Brother raised his wine jug and smiled, “Fortunately, I still have wine to drink. One word … isn’t too bad!”
“Alright, everyone be quiet. Let’s make a decision when the Guild Leader returns!” Ao Tian glanced at the complaining people.
As soon as he spoke, no one dared to speak. Second Senior Brother winked at Qin Fei and belched.
Qin Fei curled his lips. Second Senior Apprentice Brother’s intention was very obvious. His purpose was to encourage Eldest Senior Apprentice Brother to do something.
He looked at the courtyard. The poor environment was not a problem. As a martial artist, what kind of hardship did he not experience? However, the Southern Mountain Prefecture Branch was clearly trying to eliminate everyone, so they couldn’t bear to hear this anymore.
He was very puzzled. Ao Tian usually acted swiftly and swiftly, but why did he choose to endure this time?
“Big Senior Apprentice Brother, I think we have to give each other some color to see, we can’t let them bury us like this!” Qin Fei said.
Ao Tian sighed, his voice filled with helplessness. He stood up from the stone stool and took a few steps back and forth. Finally, he looked at everyone and said, “All of you, endure!” The Guild Leader had already told me before coming here. No matter what happens here, we have to endure it! “Actually, he already expected us to be neglected by the other party, but in order for our experimental results to be recognized by the association, we must endure no matter how much grievances we suffer during this trip to the Southern Mountain Manor!”
“Guild Leader knows? What exactly is going on?” Second Senior Brother said.
‘”There is a small conflict between Guild Leader Wang and our Guild Leader, so it is reasonable for us to be blamed by them now. We just need to endure it. Once trouble breaks out, the Guild Leader will probably seize this opportunity to make things even more difficult for us!” Ao Tian said helplessly.
“Hey, you guys, gather right now. Someone wants to see you!”
Just as Ao Tian was speaking, an arrogant young man suddenly walked over from outside the courtyard and shouted at the crowd without any courtesy.
Second Senior Brother and the others stood up one after another. They remembered Ao Tian’s words. No matter what the other party did, they chose to endure.
The youth nodded his head in satisfaction. Then, he bowed and turned around. With a flattering smile, he said, “Senior Brothers, please come in!”
Seven people dressed in alchemist robes appeared at the entrance, all of them proudly, as if they were being dragged into the sky.
“Haha, I am Ruan Ming, an elder disciple of the Southern Mountain Prefecture branch! These are all my junior brothers. Today, on Master’s orders, they came to pay their respects to everyone.” The leader was a man with a pale complexion. He was about thirty years old, about the same age as Ao Tian. He was about two meters tall. His eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke, emitting a poisonous snake-like light. Although he spoke politely, the mockery on his face could be easily seen by anyone.
