Upon hearing this, everyone immediately understood what the Meteor Sect elder was referring to and fell silent. Seeing this, the Meteor Sect elder narrowed his eyes slightly, "Although Li Changfeng is currently a favorite of the Imperial Court, there are still ways to help him, but it will require sacrifice!"
Everyone was slightly surprised upon hearing this and quickly asked, "Meteor Sect Elder! Just say what's on your mind, don't hold back!"
The Meteor Sect elder chuckled upon hearing this, "When I arrived, the sect leader told me that if we were to seek revenge, it should be done in the name of our sect, not in our personal names!"
The elder of the Divine Fist Gate frowned upon hearing this, "What's the difference! The moment we make a move, we represent the name of the sect!"
The Iron Palm Gang elder narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. "You mean to say that we should leave the sect and then kill him in our personal capacity?"
The Meteor Sect elder gave the Iron Palm Gang elder a deep look. "The Iron Palm Gang elder is indeed intelligent! He understands immediately!"
Upon hearing this, the Azure City Sect elder frowned, "Isn't such a price too high!"
The Meteor Sect elder smiled slightly upon hearing this, "On the surface, we have separated from the sect, but secretly... you know what I mean!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately understood, their eyes lighting up slightly. "That's indeed a good idea!"
The Iron Palm Gang elder chuckled, "I suddenly have another idea. Perhaps we can kill that kid with our own hands without much effort!"
Everyone was astonished upon hearing this. "What idea! Tell us!"
September 14th.
Midnight (11 PM - 1 AM).
Outside the Northern Di City.
At this moment, in a desolate stone temple, a figure in black suddenly appeared. Inside the stone temple, waiting for him were elders from the five major sects. Each of them had reached the level of a half-step Grandmaster, and their strength was extremely powerful!
The figure in black immediately felt a surge of pressure and bowed, saying, "Seniors! What... what is it that you've summoned me for?"
Upon hearing this Iron Palm Gang elder chuckled lightly, "You are Wang Jiao?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jiao cupped his hands and said, "Indeed! It is indeed me!"
"What an impressive lad! To have such cultivation at such a young age, even within my Iron Palm Gang, you'd be a rare genius. I've come to you today because I need your help with something."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jiao felt extremely proud and cupped his hands, saying, "Senior! What do you need my help with?"
The Iron Palm Gang elder chuckled and tossed him a yellow packet of medicine. "Put this powder into the food and drinks tomorrow!"
Wang Jiao's expression changed upon hearing this. "This... this is a bit inappropriate! I... I only wanted to kill Li Changfeng! I have no grudge against the others."
The Iron Palm Gang elder looked regretful upon hearing this. "Since you're unwilling to do it, then forget it. With our strength, we only poisoned you to make things easier. We were hoping to let you earn some merit and have the clan leader teach you a move or two of martial arts, but it seems you have no such intention. So, forget it!"
The Meteor Sect elder smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Indeed! You are quite a talent, lad. If you perform meritorious service this time, I might as well have the sect leader teach you a move or two of martial arts. You should know that we are a prestigious sect, and you know our strength!"
The Azure City Sect elder chimed in, "Indeed! All of our sects are fine with it. With your talent, it's impossible for you to fully utilize it if you stay in this remote place. We just feel sorry for you!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jiao 'Wang Jiao expression shifted between light and shadow. He thought to himself, "Finally, someone can see my talent. I am a genius. It is indeed difficult for me to unleash my talent if I stay in a place like this. However, to poison them is too cruel to my father."
The Iron Palm Gang elder narrowed his eyes slightly upon seeing this. "No poison, no husband! So what? At most, after I've poisoned everyone, I'll give you a packet of antidote so you can cure your father!"
Upon hearing this, the Meteor Sect elder smiled faintly and said, "Indeed! Once you learn powerful martial arts techniques, your father will be very proud of you!"
After a moment's hesitation, Wang Jiao's eyes gleamed with ambition as he said, "Alright! I agree!"
"Good lad! You've got guts! We knew we weren't wrong about you!"
Wang Jiao smiled slightly upon hearing this, cupped his hands, and said, "I am deeply grateful for the high regard you seniors have for me! I will definitely complete the mission, please rest assured!"
The five people smiled and nodded upon hearing this. "Go ahead! We'll be waiting for your good news!"
Upon hearing this Wang Jiao smiled slightly, then transformed into a blur of light and vanished without a trace.
Seeing this, the Meteor Sect elder chuckled, "Iron Palm Gang elder! What a brilliant plan! I didn't expect this kid to be so foolish as to actually believe us!"
Upon hearing this, the Iron Palm Gang elder laughed loudly, "It's all thanks to everyone's cooperation that we gave him a huge sugar-coated bullet that he couldn't refuse. This kid is still too naive; he really thought we could give him these benefits!"
Upon hearing this, the Azure City Sect elder sneered, "He doesn't even know what kind of person that kid is. He's only of average to above-average talent. If he really had talent, we might give him a chance. It's just that he's too stupid and doesn't know his own limitations!"
September 15th.
At this moment, the Cold Mountain Pharmacy was filled with banquets inside and outside the main hall. All the shops and businesses in the city came to offer their congratulations, and even some people from other cities came. The event was extremely grand.
The servants at Cold Mountain Pharmacy were busy attending to the guests. Wang Jiao was seen patrolling near the kitchen, and several servants around him bowed and greeted him, "Greetings, Young Master!"
Wang Jiao nodded upon hearing this, "Alright! You can go ahead and get busy!"
Upon hearing this, the servants slowly retreated. Wang Jiao glanced around and, finding no one, darted into the kitchen. There, he quietly hid behind the cooks and sprinkled all the medicinal powder into the wine.
After doing all this, he flashed again and suddenly appeared outside the kitchen, patrolling as if nothing had happened. All of this was seen by Li Changfeng, who sneered, "So you did poison me after all. Fine! It's time to let people see your true colors!"
