125: 84 Blood Rhinoceros Pills, Yang Qingshu_4 125: 84 Blood Rhinoceros Pills, Yang Qingshu_4 Shen Long left Qingtang Courtyard, visiting several Spirit Medicine Shops and purchased a batch of materials for refining Blood Rhinoceros Pills.
Returning to Qingtang Courtyard, Shen Long entered the alchemy chamber to begin his work.
Half a month swiftly passed, and Shen Long emerged from the chamber with a look of joy.
He had crafted a batch of Blood Rhinoceros Pills but hadn’t taken any yet.
Shen Long took out a blue Messaging Plate, infused a spell into it, and asked, “Master Nephew Chen, has there been any major incident within the marketplace?”
“Yes, Sun Tianfeng acted on lustful intentions, murdered a member of the Liu Family, and is now wanted by the Liu Family’s cultivators.
They have yet to find Sun Tianfeng.”
“Did he really kill a member of the Liu Family?”
Shen Long wondered aloud.
“After investigation, the Liu Family interrogated Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had dealings with Sun Tianfeng.
Some provided clues, and the suspicion towards Sun Tianfeng is quite heavy,”
“Understood, go on with your duties,”
Shen Long ended the connection and then contacted Liu Shi.
“Senior Yu, what are your orders?”
Liu Shi’s voice was filled with elation.
“I heard that Sun Tianfeng murdered a female cultivator of the Liu Family and is wanted by them.
“The whole marketplace is buzzing with the news, haha, the wicked will receive their due from heaven.”
Liu Shi said excitedly.
“That’s good to hear.
Without him to harass you, you can put more effort into collecting second-grade Flood Dragon Essence Blood.
Inform me immediately if there’s any news.”
Shen Long instructed.
Shen Long put away the Messaging Plate and stepped out.
He started to wander the streets casually, greeting acquaintances as he encountered them.
He arrived at the plaza where Loose Cultivators set up their stalls and began to sell elixirs.
“How much for the Blood Rhinoceros Pill?”
A calm male voice inquired.
Shen Long looked up to see a handsome young man in white standing before him.
“Ninety Spirit Stones per pill, nine hundred per bottle, or you can trade with materials,”
“Do forge materials count as well?”
The young man in white asked, taking out a cyan Storage Bag and passing it to Shen Long.
Shen Long scanned the contents with his Divine Sense, nodded, and handed two cyan porcelain bottles to the young man in white.
May I know how to address you?”
The young man in white courteously inquired.
“So you are Taoist Friend Shen, I have heard Liu Family and others mention you.”
Yang Qingshu expressed his surprise.
Shen Long nodded, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then Yang Qingshu took his leave.
In less than half a day, Shen Long’s supply of elixirs was sold out.
He bought a batch of Artifact Refining materials and returned to his residence.
Shen Long entered the alchemy chamber, sat down cross-legged, took out a Blood Rhinoceros Pill, and placed it in his mouth.
As soon as the elixir melted upon entering his mouth, Shen Long felt a warm current rise in his abdomen.
Soon his body grew slightly warm, with a sensation of burning dry heat, as if plunging into a volcano.
He hurriedly started Cultivating to refine the potent effects of the medicine, aiming to strengthen his qi and blood.
In a quiet courtyard with green roof tiles, Liu Yushan and a voluptuous woman in a golden dress sat around a green stone table, enjoying tea and conversation.
“We’ve already posted notices in various marketplaces offering a hefty bounty for Sun Tianfeng; he surely won’t be able to escape,”
Proud of his status as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Sun Tianfeng had often bullied female Qi Refinement Realm cultivators.
This time, daring to scheme against a female cultivator of the Liu Family, they were determined to capture Sun Tianfeng to account for his crimes.
But something feels off to me.
If Sun Tianfeng really did kill Yuwei and the others, why would he leave only now?
Logically, shouldn’t he have fled the marketplace immediately after the incident?
According to our investigations, after a period following Yuwei’s disappearance, Sun Tianfeng had been lingering in the marketplace, pestering Yuruo from Liu’s Grocery Store.”
The woman in the golden dress voiced her doubts.
“He probably thought he was being bold enough, assuming he’d covered his tracks well.
Based on Taoist Friend Yang’s testimony, Sun Tianfeng is a prime suspect.
Once we catch him, everything will become clear.”
The woman in the golden dress nodded, not saying anything more.
