Translator: 549690339
Internal Affairs Hall, Pill Medicine Building.
The disciple who attended to Lu Yun was still the same as before.
The disciple’s surname is Yao, his name is Lin, he is quite astute and enthusiastic. Seeing Lu Yun, he greeted him with a smile right away.
“Senior Brother Lu, I haven’t seen you in months, and your aura is becoming more and more unfathomable.”
“You’re not bad either, you’re already in the mid-stage of the Meridian Passage Realm and have a solid Innate Talent. With another month or two of hard work, you should be able to break through.”
Lu Yun glanced at Yao Lin and saw his details clearly.
Originally, even if he was a realm above Yao Lin, he could only see his realm at most, but not how long he had been immersed in it, only having a vague idea.
However, after comprehending the Slaughter Conception, he could see more, although he was not sure why.
“Hehe, Senior Brother Lu has a good eye.”
Yao Lin blatantly flattered Lu Yun and then asked with a grin, “Senior Brother Lu, are you here to exchange for Meridian Pills again?”
“Meridian Pills no longer have any effect on me. This time, I want to exchange for Profound Origin Pills.”
“Profound Origin Pills?”
Yao Lin was momentarily stunned but quickly recovered, his face filled with shock as he said incredulously, “You… you have broken through to the True Qi Realm?”
Lu Yun looked dismissively at him and replied irritably, “It’s just the True Qi Realm, it’s not worth making such a fuss.”
Then, he quickly glanced around and unobtrusively pulled Yao Lin into a corner.
“Try to be calm. 1 don’t want too many people to know about my breakthrough.”
Yao Lin hastily nodded and promised solemnly, “Don’t worry, Senior Brother Lu, I will keep it a secret and won’t mention it to anyone else.”
As he spoke, Yao Lin’s face reddened slightly, clearly due to excessive excitement.
Lu Yun couldn’t help but smile inwardly, feeling somewhat relieved that the news of his passing the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower had not spread yet.
Just breaking through to the True Qi Realm was enough to make Yao Lin react like this, and the other disciples wouldn’t fare much better.
“All, by the way, how many Contribution Points does a bottle of Profound Origin Pills cost?”
Lu Yun now had 5,800 Contribution Points on his token: 800 from completing Black-rank Demon Slaying Missions, 2,000 from passing the ninth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, and 3,000 from passing the tenth level.
Even with nearly 6,000 Contribution Points, he still needed to be careful with how he spent them.
“Five hundred Contribution Points.”
Due to Lu Yun’s previous reminder, Yao Lin’s voice was much softer when speaking, and might not have been clear in such a noisy environment if it were not for Lu Yun’s keen hearing.
“Give me six bottles…”
After pondering for a while, Lu Yun changed his mind, “I want to exchange for seven bottles.”
As he spoke, he handed his token to Yao Lin.
“Alright, please wait a moment.”
Yao Lin took the token and ran off.
Not long after, he returned to Lu Yun, panting, with the token in one hand and seven exquisitely made jade bottles in the other.
“Senior Brother Lu, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Yao Lin took a deep breath and carefully handed the token and Profound Origin Pills to Lu Yun.
“Seven bottles of Profound Origin Pills, a total of 3,500 Contribution Points, leaving 2,300 Contribution Points. Senior Brother Lu, please check to see if there are any issues.”
Lu Yun simply nodded and did not check, instead putting away the token and Profound Origin Pills and taking his leave.
As soon as he left the Pill Medicine Building, he encountered someone he did not expect to see.
“Brother Lu?”
Seeing Lu Yun, Mu Qingyun did not avoid him. Instead, he walked right up to greet him.
Lu Yun’s eyes flashed and he laughed, “It turns out to be Brother Mu. 1 haven’t had a chance to thank you for your pills last time.”
“Haha, Brother Lu, you’re joking.”
Considering Lu Yun’s teasing, Mu Qingyun did not mind at all, chatting casually for a while before taking his leave.
As soon as Mu Qingyun turned the corner, the smile on his face vanished abruptly, replaced by a look of hatred.
“It’s you, it must be you!”
His fists clenched tightly as he resisted turning back, fearing that if he saw that hateful face again, he wouldn’t be able to resist attacking.
In the face of the vast gap between them, attacking would lead to only one outcome; digging his own grave-
Mu Qingyun had always been jealous and hateful of Lu Yun, the village boy. After entering the Martial Academy, he found the gap between them growing even larger. Instead of reducing his jealousy and hatred, it grew deeper.
However, Mu Qingyun was cunning, not showing his true feelings on his face, burying them deep in his heart, and plotting to take revenge on Lu Yun.
His first thought was to stop Lu Yun from progressing, and the best way to do that was to destroy Spirit Creek Village, which would demoralize Lu Yun for a while.
Some geniuses might never rise again after such a setback.
Even if Lu Yun did not succumb completely, he would still be delayed for several months because of it, giving Mu Qingyun a chance to catch up.
And this was just the first step. There would be a second step, and even a third step.
However, the news he received was of the destruction of Sky Wind Stronghold instead of the massacre of Spirit Creek Village, as well as his father and the Breeze Mountain Villa elders being killed by an unknown powerful individual overnight.
In his extreme hatred, Mu Qingyun did not think much and directly linked this to Lu Yun.
Even if he did not believe Lu Yun was capable of such things.
To verify this, he went to Lu Yun’s small courtyard.
As luck would have it, Lu Yun was not there during that time, which further confirmed his suspicions.
“Lu Yun, regardless of whether this has anything to do with you, 1 will destroy you, I must…”
Elsewhere.
Lu Yun returned to his small courtyard as evening fell, not in the mood to practice martial arts but instead contemplating Mu Qingyun’s situation.
“It’s been so long, and news of Qin Peak Manor must have reached his ears by now. He’s acting so normal in front of me now, it’s unbelievable if he doesn’t have any ulterior motives.”
It had been over two months since he killed Mu Qingfeng and the others. By now, Mu Qingyun should know what had happened, even if his information was limited.
After learning about the events at Breeze Mountain Villa, Mu Qingyun’s normal reaction should have been sadness or despair for a while, not greeting his ■fellow villager’ with a smile.
“Either he is heartless and gullible, or he has something to hide, and is trying to cover it up.”
With this in mind, Lu Yun thought back to the events at Sky Wind Stronghold and the many clues involved.
Breeze Mountain Villa had no grudges with Spirit Creek Village; the only connection was between Mu Qingyun and himself.
“First there were minor conflicts, then jealousy turned to hatred, and finally the hiring of an assassin to kill… But this is just my speculation.”
Lu Yun pondered many things in his mind. If everything were as he expected, then Mu Qingyun was no simple person.
Restricted by the rules of the academy, he could not do anything openly to Mu Qingyun.
Unless it was outside the academy and in a situation where no-one was present.
“Regardless, Mu Qingyun must die. Allowing a fly like him to continue existing will eventually cause trouble.”
With this thought, a fierce light flickered in Lu Yun’s eyes..
