Demon Ghost Domain Trial (3)

It has to be said that Yan Shu was able to become a steward of the Alchemy Pavilion not only because of his father's background, but also because he understood Guan Wei Wu Weiwu's temperament quite well. When the sect asked each branch to report outstanding disciples to participate in the 'Demon Ghost Domain' trial, Yan Shu immediately thought it was a good opportunity to get rid of Yue Qianchou. After reporting the matter to Guan Wei Wu, he only reminded him slightly, "Elder Guan, is Yue Qianchou considered an outstanding disciple of the Alchemy Pavilion? Should he participate in this trial?"

Guan Wei Wu remained silent. Although Yue Qianchou was not good at anything else and was rather lazy, he was still his disciple after all, and his alchemy skills were beyond his reach. In the Alchemy Pavilion, he could be considered an outstanding disciple. So he pondered and said, "Yue Qianchou will be listed as an outstanding disciple of the Foundation Establishment Realm and participate in the trial. You and the seniors of the Nascent Soul Realm can discuss the selection of the others."

Yan Shu bowed and accepted the Fate Dao, "Yes."

That's how things came about. If Yan Shu hadn't reminded Guan Wei Wu, the latter would have waved his hand and said, "You guys figure it out." He wouldn't have dared to rashly include Yue Qianchou in the list. But after being reminded, Yan Shu already knew what the outcome would be.

"Master, are you really sending me to the Demon Ghost Domain for trials?" Yue Qianchou walked up to his master and asked. Yan Shu smiled but remained silent.

Guan Wei Wu's expression was grave. He knew that the Demon Ghost Domain was a very dangerous place, but everyone has their own selfish motives. Since Yue Qianchou was his personal disciple, and he couldn't possibly control the Alchemy Pavilion forever, it would be better to hand over the future of the Alchemy Pavilion to his disciple. As long as Yue Qianchou could survive the Demon Ghost Domain, it would undoubtedly silence many people in the future.

"Go away! I'm doing this for your own good," Guan Wei Wu sighed.

"Master, it's very dangerous there. If I go, I'm afraid I'll never see you again," Yue Qianchou pleaded.

Guan Wei Wu frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "If you're afraid of death, you don't have to say it so openly! You may not be afraid of losing face, but I am." His face hardened, and he shook his head, saying, "How can we keep changing things that have already been reported to the sect? That would be child's play. Hey! You don't need to worry too much. The senior leaders know that you are my personal disciple, so they will naturally know what's going on. There won't be much danger."

Yue Qianchou was taken aback. So this matter could be handled leniently? Going out to broaden one's horizons seemed like a good idea. But he still reminded him, "Master, I will naturally obey your words. But Master, please don't forget to greet the elders leading the teams!"

Guan Wei Wu glanced at Yan Shu, his face somewhat embarrassed. This disciple of his didn't know how to speak appropriately. He quickly waved his hand and said, "I know, you can go back now!"

Having received his master's promise, Yue Qianchou breathed a sigh of relief as he walked out of the main hall of the Alchemy Pavilion, but he still felt uneasy. Something was really strange about this. Not long after he left the hall, he heard Yan Shu's voice behind him. "Yue Qianchou, the disciples participating in the trial will gather here at sunrise the day after tomorrow. Don't forget the time."

Yue Qianchou heard this but ignored him and walked away. Yan Shu then said from behind, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you, I'm also participating in this trial."

"What? You're participating too?" Yue Qianchou turned around abruptly and asked. The other person gave a cold, ambiguous laugh and said, "That's right, you heard me correctly." There was a hint of chill in his voice.

"Damn it!" Yue Qianchou yelled and rushed back into the main hall of the Alchemy Pavilion. Yan Shu was clearly trying to kill him this time, so he had to prepare in advance.

Yan Shu was taken aback, then sneered and muttered, "It's too late to regret it now. Even your master can't just replace the person who's already been reported."

He thought Yue Qianchou was going back to plead with his master, but that wasn't the case. Yue Qianchou ran into the underground space, went straight to his private Alchemy Chamber, grabbed the Pill Furnace and sent it into Utopia, wanting to get what he needed first.

He now understood: Yan Shu wouldn't let go until he was dead. Since that was the Yan Shu, he'd see who killed whom. He refused to believe that even if he dragged out Bai Suzhen, who was at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage Transcending Realm, he couldn't kill her. He wouldn't come back if he couldn't kill her; he'd better get out of here now and settle this score another day.

Yang Qian, who was directing the work, saw Yue Qianchou rush into the Alchemy Chamber. Not knowing what had happened, he followed. When he went in, he was shocked to find that the Pill Furnace in the center of the Alchemy Chamber was gone, and only a specially made black heat-insulating iron plate remained on the ground. Yue Qianchou's face was also pale.

"Yue Qianchou, where did you put the Pill Furnace?" Yang Qian asked.

"Oh, Master Yang, it's nothing." Yue Qianchou patted the Storage Bag at his waist and said, "I put the Pill Furnace in there. My master asked me to participate in the 'Demon Ghost Domain' trial and told me to bring the Pill Furnace with me and practice more when I have time."

"What? Elder Guan wants you to participate in the Demon Ghost Domain Trial?" Yang Qian asked, somewhat incredulous.

Yue Qianchou sighed and walked out. "I've taken the things. Do whatever you want with them. I'm not taking them back."

As soon as he left, Yang Qian went to Guan Wei Wu and told him what had happened. The latter was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand. Let him be! Just have the Artifact Refining Pavilion forge another Pill Furnace."

It seems that Yue Qianchou really did go to the Demon Ghost Domain for trials, but Yang Qian couldn't understand it. If he was going to participate in trials, where would he take his Pill Furnace to practice? In the Demon Ghost Domain? That's ridiculous!

Yue Qianchou left the main hall and flew straight to Myriad Fragrance Garden. Fei Denan, who was sitting in the main hall, was very surprised to see him again. This kid was usually nowhere to be seen for days after he had eaten his fill, but today he came again not long after he left. Did he still not have enough to eat?

"Why are you here again?" Fei Denan noticed that he looked a little unwell.

Yue Qianchou walked to a chair to the side, sat down with his legs spread wide, and said angrily, "Master made me participate in the 'Demon Ghost Domain' trial."

Fei Denan paused, glanced at him, and scoffed, "What are you up to? Guan Wei Wu let you participate in the trial? Does the Alchemy Pavilion really have no one left?" He didn't believe it at all. After spending so much time with him, he had figured it out. This kid was lucky if one out of ten things he said was true. Usually, he was just lying through his teeth without batting an eye.

Yue Qianchou and shook his head, saying, "I don't believe it either, but it's true. My master said it himself, otherwise I wouldn't have come to find you."

"Are you telling the truth?" Fei Denan asked suspiciously.

"Do I look like a liar to you?" Yue Qianchou said irritably, "Of course it's true."

Fei Denan ignored the first part of his sentence, but after hearing the second part, he frowned and stood up. He couldn't help but take it seriously; his precious daughter couldn't live without him, and if something really happened to Yue Qianchou, how would he explain it to his daughter?

After pondering for a while with a flickering gaze, Fei Denan's brows relaxed, as if he had figured something out. He shook his head and smiled, "So that's how it is. I was wondering why he suddenly became interested in this matter, since he never cared about it before. I didn't realize that old man Alchemy Fanatic had actually started to scheme. Yue Qianchou, don't worry! Your master will make arrangements; there's not much danger."

Yue Qianchou didn't know what he was cryptic about, so he bluntly said, "Master said the same thing to you. I don't know what kind of shady dealings you have with the upper echelons, but I know that Yan Shu will definitely take my life on this trip. Help me think of what to do!"
