"The Immortal Alliance is still searching for the hideout of that band of cultivators. Once it's found, the Immortal Alliance will notify everyone immediately."

Everyone present nodded in agreement.

After another round of toasts and drinks, many more people left.

Jin Wuxu then found Li Yunjing.

"Sect Leader Li, thank you for your hospitality. Golden Millet Pavilion still has some matters to attend to, so I must take my leave now."

Jin Wuxu smiled and cupped his hands in greeting to Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing smiled and said, "Please take care, Luozhen Sect Jin Shopkeeper Jin Shopkeeper Jin has not been hospitable. Please forgive us."

"Sect Leader Li, you're too kind. I've eaten and drunk my fill today," Jin Wuxu said with a smile.

Li Yunjing escorted Jin Wuxu to the entrance of Serene Valley.

Jin Wuxu said, "Sect Leader Li, please wait. Let's meet again another time."

Li Yunjing nodded, watching Jin Wuxu leave.

After Jin Wuxu left, he went to Luo Qiyuan.

Luo Qiyuan specifically sought out Li Yunjing.

Tell Li Yunjing again that if Luozhen Sect has any extra spirit eggs, be sure to send them to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

Li Yunjing exchanged a few polite words and saw Luo Qiyuan off.

After Luo Qiyuan left, they arrived in Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan left together with his master Gu Lin.

Gu Lin and Li Yunjing exchanged a few polite words.

Gu Lin's attitude towards Li Yunjing was neither warm nor cold.

Attending the Foundation Establishment Banquet is also a way of giving face to Jiang Chuan.

Li Yunjing didn't care about Gu Lin's attitude.

After exchanging a few words with Gu Lin, Jiang Chuan pulled Li Yunjing aside.

"Yunjing, your Yin-Yang Primordial Magnet Stone was taken by my master, and he personally crafted it for you."

Li Yunjing asked in bewilderment, "Isn't this a good thing? With your skills, I'd be afraid if you made it for me!"

Jiang Chuan retorted angrily, "How can you insult me like that? What's wrong with my skills?"

Li Yunjing immediately smiled apologetically, "It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I need a second-tier Spirit Artifact, which you, as a first-tier weapon refiner, cannot forge."

Jiang Chuan immediately deflated; Li Yunjing was right.

"Fine, I won't argue with you. I just want to tell you that based on what you said before, my master has a very bad impression of you, and I'm worried about him..."

Out of respect for Gu Lin, Jiang Chuan didn't say the rest of his words.

Li Yunjing smiled, "Worried that he'll tamper with it during the refining process?"

Jiang Chuan secretly glanced at his master.

Nod slightly.

Li Yunjing shook his head and said, "Don't worry, one thing is one thing. Your master wouldn't do that unless he doesn't care about his reputation."

This would make it even more advantageous for the Hundred Artifacts Pavilion to become a branch of the Luozhen Sect.

Jiang Chuan sighed, "You rascal, why won't you give up!"

Li Yunjing patted Jiang Chuan on the shoulder.

"I won't give up, don't worry about that. The Hundred Artifacts Pavilion will join the Luozhen Sect sooner or later, and it definitely won't take more than a year."

Jiang Chuan looked at Li Yunjing with concern.

There is suspicion that Li Yunjing may have damaged his brain during his Foundation Establishment.

Jiang Chuan didn't say anything.

He told Li Yunjing to take care, and then left with Gu Lin.

Currently, only the three deacons of the Immortal Alliance and Ding Qifeng remain within the Luozhen Sect.

Ding Qifeng and Huo Junrui were having a very lively conversation.

The two were already acquainted and both enjoyed drinking.

Now is the perfect opportunity to get thoroughly drunk.

Li Jie was forced to join the two's party.

The two men kept pulling him to drink.

But Li Jie did not refuse, and he took the opportunity to have a good time.

I'm usually so busy with official duties that I don't have many opportunities to be unrestrained.

Because of Wang Qianxue's Wang Qianxue status, the two men dared not ask her to drink.

Wang Qianxue can only be beautiful on her own.

When Li Yunjing returned and saw Wang Qianxue alone, Li Yunjing decided to give her the letter.

Li Yunjing lowered his voice as he walked to Wang Qianxue's side.

"Deacon Wang, there is a letter for you."

Wang Qianxue put down her wine glass and looked at Li Yunjing with curiosity.

"Oh? Whose letter?"

Li Yunjing said, "My master."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qianxue's expression turned cold, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Really? Let me see it."

Li Yunjing took out the letter and handed it to Wang Qianxue.

Wang Qianxue opened the envelope and took out the letter.

I looked at it carefully.

He finished reading the contents of the letter in no time.

Wang Qianxue remained expressionless, folded the letter, and put it back into the envelope.

"I'll accept this letter," Wang Qianxue said.

Although seemingly devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Li Yunjing noticed that Wang Qianxue's hands were trembling slightly.

Wang Qianxue was clearly trying her best to control herself and calm herself down.

"How did you find this letter? Why didn't you send it over sooner?" Wang Qianxue asked.

Helpless, Li Yunjing told Wang Qianxue what had happened.

I learned that Li Yunjing had only recently discovered the letter.

Wang Qianxue fell silent.

He picked up the wine vessel and drank the spirit wine inside in one gulp.

Where is his grave?

Wang Qianxue wiped her lips, her gaze burning as she looked at Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing pointed in the direction of Nangong Chengyu's tomb.

"Keep walking that way, it's not far."

Wang Qianxue nodded, and then told Li Yunjing.

"Your master's death had other causes, not just a so-called serious illness."

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing's eyes widened, and he suddenly looked at Wang Qianxue.

This is absolutely horrifying.

The death of Nangong Chengyu was confirmed by the Alchemist and physicians of the Immortal Alliance.

Nangong Chengyu contracted an unknown serious illness.

This caused his muscles to atrophy, his Law Power to gradually deplete, and even his Divine Sense and Dantian to wither away.

All the Alchemist and physicians from the Immortal Alliance, both second- and third-rank, have come to visit.

We have no clue what to do and are at a loss.

And even higher-ranking Alchemist and physicians,

The Luozhen Sect doesn't have the resources to invite them.

The outcome is likely to be similar.

It should be noted that one of the physicians in the Xunxian Town Immortal Alliance is a top-tier third-grade physician.

He was just one step away from reaching the fourth rank.

He didn't notice anything.

Therefore, Li Yunjing includes most people,

Everyone believes that Nangong Chengyu died because he contracted an unknown serious illness.

But now, Wang Qianxue says that Nangong Chengyu's death had another cause.

That's quite strange.

"Has Deacon Wang discovered something?" Li Yunjing tried to remain calm.

Wang Qianxue shook her head.

"Nothing was found, but I know that Chengyu would never get sick easily."

You don't know, Chengyu possesses Spirit Body, named the Medicinal Spirit Physique.

Li Yunjing's pupils dilated.

Medicinal Spirit Physique, one of the special Spirit Body.

According to the classification of Spirit Body from low to high: Yellow, Black, Earth, Heaven, and Immortal.

The Medicinal Spirit Physique is a top-tier Xuan-level Spirit Body.

This Spirit Body is very rare.

It's no exaggeration to say that it's one in a million.

The Medicinal Spirit Physique has special effects.

Its blood, bones, and flesh all have medicinal properties.

Simply put, the Medicinal Spirit Physique is like the flesh of Tang Sanzang (the monk in Journey to the West).

Drinking its blood and eating its flesh can cure all diseases and even prolong life.

And it is precisely because of this function that people with Medicinal Spirit Physique are natural-born physicians.

It is highly sensitive to various diseases and can easily detect and treat the causes of diseases.

Moreover, because flesh and blood have medicinal uses,

Getting sick is extremely difficult in itself.

The vast majority of diseases, and even toxins,

Medicinal Spirit Physique can ignore it.

Knowing this, Li Yunjing began to ponder the cause of his master's death.

Logically speaking, it's already difficult for Medicinal Spirit Physique to fall ill.

Even when ill, they can easily perceive the cause of the illness.

Li Yunjing had never heard of any Medicinal Spirit Physique being killed by illness.

The cause of death of the appearing Medicinal Spirit Physique,

Either it's because the information was leaked,

He was captured by some Devil Cultivator and used to refine medicine pills.

Either they were too weak and got killed.

If it's not an illness, then what is it?

Li Yunjing suddenly thought of something.

"Poison!"

And it's not a low-level poison.

It is definitely a rare and extremely high-level poison.

After all, the Medicinal Spirit Physique also has detoxifying effects.

Low-level poisons are useless.

If it really was poison, who poisoned it, and why?

Li Yunjing couldn't understand...
