Chapter 340
He knew that Jiang Yan had directed his killing intent toward everyone to prevent Jiang Fan's words from spreading and bringing a disaster of extermination upon the Jiang family, so he immediately echoed Jiang Fan's words.
Who could have thought that Jiang Fan had saved them, yet because of Jiang Fan, they might die here.
Reminded by Gu Haoming, the others also followed suit, cursing and promising not to leak a single word.
Jiang Yan's killing intent slowly faded, and he warned: "Don't look for a path to death for yourselves; I will let you go today, but if these words spread, the Jiang family of the Marquis's mansion might not necessarily be in trouble, but I guarantee that if a single word spreads, no matter who said it, all of you will die."
A crisis ended, and the group returned to the Profound Heaven Sect.
Xu Yang and Jiang Fan stepped into the courtyard and saw Sun Tao and the others chatting together.
After greeting them, Xu Yang returned to his room and closed the door; he first took out the two stalks of Pure Yang Grass and put them away, then took out the book "Elementary Interpretation of Elixirs" and began to read.
【Boiling Blood Powder (2/50)】
A quarter of an hour later, the panel flickered, recording an elixir called Boiling Blood Powder.
At this moment, he also had a certain understanding of this book called "Elementary Interpretation of Elixirs"; the book was entirely about explaining the pharmacology of various medicinal herbs.
While explaining, it also used some elixir formulas as examples for discussion.
However, it was indeed just an elementary interpretation; the elixir formulas listed above were all low-level elixirs used at the Qi Gathering Realm or before gathering Qi.
He flipped directly to the back and discovered that the highest level was the elixir formula for the Qi Gathering Pill.
But even so, this "Elementary Interpretation of Elixirs" was a treasure worth more than gold, which could serve as a family heirloom for a small family; if one could study it meticulously for a dozen years and have medicinal herbs to practice with, one might truly be able to cultivate an alchemist.
At dusk, several figures stepped into the Profound Heaven Sect.
"I'll go inquire and see if Xu Yang is dead."
An Ping volunteered and immediately walked toward a few disciples guarding the mountain gate, saying: "A few junior brothers, let me ask, may I ask if Xu Yang has already returned to the mountain gate?"
"So it's Senior Brother An."
Someone recognized An Ping and immediately smiled: "Xu Yang already returned at noon; he returned with Jiang Fan and the inner sect senior brother Jiang Yan."
"Many thanks for informing me, junior brother."
An Ping was deeply disappointed and strode away with Guo Huai and the others.
"It seems he had dog-shit luck this time, actually encountering Senior Brothers Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan," Guo Huai shook his head in disappointment.
With Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan by his side, even if Su Che were given ten guts, he wouldn't dare to touch Xu Yang.
Tang Xiao looked jealous: "It really is dog-shit luck; he actually got to live in the same courtyard as the Young Marquis and got to know a figure like the Young Marquis."
Who would have known that the person who followed Xiao Ya's butt every day and was called a turtle-man by all the outer sect disciples would be the Young Marquis of the Jiang family.
After Jiang Fan's identity was exposed, who knows how many people regretted not befriending him before his identity was exposed.
Even if this Young Marquis wasn't promising, being able to befriend him would be infinitely beneficial in the future.
……
Su family, Alchemy Room.
"Tell me clearly, how did Su Che go missing!" Su Qiming walked out with a gloomy face.
His son, Su Che, although he had struggled in the Profound Heaven Sect for ten years and ultimately failed to enter the inner sect, was a potential martial artist with hope for Marrow Cleansing in the future.
And having been influenced by what he saw and heard since childhood, he had also come into contact with quite a few things related to alchemy.
Recently, he had been passing on his alchemy skills to Su Che, and now he had gone missing.
Disciple Su Jie said: "The news we have checked so far is that after Su Che finished attending the auction at the Myriad Treasure Pavilion, no one has seen him; at the city gate, no one saw him leave Qingyang City either."
Could it be that he bought something good at the auction and was intercepted and killed?
Su Qiming said coldly: "Have you checked what he bought at the auction?"
Su Jie shook his head: "The Myriad Treasure Pavilion refuses to provide auction records; we found someone who participated in the auction and asked, and Su Che didn't buy anything at the auction."
Su Qiming frowned deeply; if he didn't buy anything at the auction, he naturally wouldn't be intercepted and killed: "Did he have any conflict with anyone at the auction, or was there an item he took a fancy to but didn't buy?"
If he wasn't intercepted and killed, then he must have gone to intercept and kill someone else.
He understood his own son's character; he was vindictive, and if he had a conflict with someone at the auction, he would definitely go for revenge.
Su Jie said: "There was no conflict with anyone, but that person said that Su Che offered to buy two stalks of Pure Yang Grass, but someone raised the price to three hundred and fifty taels, and in the end, Su Che didn't continue bidding.
By the way, it is said that after Su Che failed the bid, he reported his identity to that person."
A sharp light flashed in Su Qiming's eyes; with his son's character, reporting his identity was equivalent to being enraged, revealing his identity to teach the other party a lesson.
Two stalks of Pure Yang Grass, raising the price to three hundred and fifty taels; if it were him, he would also have killing intent.
Did they think that just because the Su family took a fancy to something, they could buy it with money?
"Who was the person bidding against Su Che? Su Che must have gone to kill him and something happened."
Killing intent surged on Su Qiming's body; it was almost certain that this person had killed his son, Su Che.
Su Jie shook his head: "That person is Xu Yang of the Profound Heaven Sect; it couldn't be him who harmed Su Che; Xu Yang is only at Minor Success Gang Qi, while Su Che reached Major Success Gang Qi many years ago; ten Xu Yangs added together wouldn't be a match for Su Che."
Just at Minor Success Gang Qi and he dared to bid against his son? No wonder he was enraged.
Su Qiming said: "Just because his cultivation isn't enough, doesn't mean he can't have friends? No matter who he is, capture him and interrogate him, and we'll know."
Su Jie's expression changed slightly, and he explained: "Xu Yang is a genius among the Ten Elites of the Profound Heaven Sect."
Even if the Profound Heaven Sect didn't take outer sect disciples seriously, it wasn't as if anyone could just go and capture them openly; face-saving efforts were still necessary.
Su Qiming snorted coldly: "Bastard, I told you to arrange for people to capture him privately."
Su Jie didn't speak; to capture a genius among the Ten Elites of the Profound Heaven Sect, even if Su Qiming had a transcendent status in the Su family, such matters had to be asked of the family head, Su Jianye, first.
Only if the family head agreed could they send out experts to do things.
He was just an alchemist and wasn't good at capturing people.
Su Qiming sighed dejectedly and said: "Forget it, find the person first; perhaps he's just playing around; send people to look in the direction of the Profound Heaven Sect."
As long as an expert goes missing in Qingyang City, just look in the direction of the Profound Heaven Sect, and nine times out of ten, you'll find them.
"If something really happened to my son, it won't be too late to trouble this Xu Yang then."
Su Qiming's gaze contained killing intent; anyway, he didn't dare to go to the Profound Heaven Sect to capture people now.
With Su Che missing, all the Su family's spies were sent out, looking in the direction of the Profound Heaven Sect under Su Qiming's instructions.
Not long after, a corpse wrapped in a white cloth appeared before Su Qiming.
