The prefectural city gradually returned to normal after the great battle. Ruins were rebuilt, and the streets took on a brand-new look.
The most controversial topic lately was the major news that Da Qian Martial Arts School had cast aside the Medicine King Sect and joined forces with the Myriad Poisons Secret Workshop.
As everyone knew, the Medicine King Sect had nearly monopolized the medicinal ingredient trade across Northern Profound's six provinces. Even the great medicines required by powerful martial artists basically had to be refined using techniques supplied by them.
Though this sect did not excel in martial force, it possessed an exalted status, and every side had to treat it with respect.
Zhou You's Da Qian Martial Arts School had offended the Medicine King Sect and suffered its boycott. That was the usual course of events.
Yet not only had the boycotted Da Qian Martial Arts School not collapsed, it had risen against the current and grown ever stronger.
Now, it was even going to cooperate with the Myriad Poisons Secret Workshop, exchanging resources to achieve the strategic goal of mutual benefit and shared success.
Well, it was worth mentioning that although the Ten Thousand Poison Marsh Sea under Lu Zhigang had not raised its own banner, in the eyes of outsiders, he had undoubtedly inherited everything from Poison Grand Peak. His faction was still... the Myriad Poisons Secret Workshop.
During this time, the Medicine King Sect had sent people to warn Zhou You, and had even sternly threatened Lu Zhigang not to cooperate with Zhou You.
It had all been futile. The cooperation was still forged.
On this day, Zhou You and Lu Zhigang met outside Da Qian Martial Arts School and publicly announced their partnership.
The disciples of Da Qian Martial Arts School were all exhilarated.
