"Wei Zhenyang, I respect you as a senior. Don't you dare slander me!" "Obviously, you were the one who framed me, not only did you not succeed, you even picked up a stone and smashed your own feet with it. Afterwards, you actually accused us, Zhang, of framed you, you old bastard!"
Zhang Ba said in a flustered and exasperated tone.
Soon after, Wei Zhenyang was stunned for a moment before he said to Qin Rufeng, "Fellow Daoist Qin, please listen to what happened. You will know whether or not you can save that Zhang family's old fool."
He then fell into a reminiscent state and said to himself, "A few years ago, our pill shop and Zhang Ji's side were connected by a pearl. They were complementary to each other in this Spirit County.
In a short period of time, our Pill Workshop and the Zhang Clan are in the limelight in the pill business in the entire Mo Xi world. Any force or clan would need to discuss the matter of pills with our Pill Workshop and Zhang Clan.
Including the current number one power, the Xuanyuan Pavilion.
In the past, our pill shop was not in a state of disintegration, but was led by the owner, Li Sheng.
However, a few years ago, there was a Tier 6 apothecary from somewhere in the Zhang Clan. Furthermore, there were countless experts under his command. All of them were vicious and insidious people.
The owner of our pill shop, Li Sheng, is only a high Grade Five Alchemist. When he heard that the Zhang Clan was taking in a Grade Six Alchemist, he decided to pay a visit to that Grade Six Alchemist in hopes of obtaining his guidance. From there, he comprehended the core of a Grade Six Alchemist and broke through the bottleneck.
But after our Owner brought our special gift to the Zhang Family, he actually didn't come back. With our trust towards Zhang Ji at the time, as well as a letter personally written by Zhang Ba's father, also known as the Zhang Family Head, and the medallion of authority of the Zhang Family, we didn't doubt him at all.
The letter said that our family head was in closed-door training with the sixth-grade alchemist to refine medicine, but now, there was a problem. Two people accidentally destroyed a leaf royal spirit while they were refining pills.
However, in the whole of the Western Desert, only the Heavenly Moon Forest had traces of the Ye Emperor's Essence.
However, for the Owner's sake, we did our best. We posted a notice and summoned sixty-six masters at the cost of concocting pills, fifty-four of them were Xuan Masters and twelve were Xuan Masters.
Under my lead, the huge crowd headed towards the Great Heavenly Moon Forest quickly. Everything was going smoothly.
However, we met a group of people in the Heavenly Moon Forest. They were holding the authority token of the Zhang family and they claimed that they came to the Heavenly Moon Forest to find the Ye Emperor's Spirit for our Owner and their family's rank 6 alchemist.
Thus, we traveled together. The reason why the Great Heavenly Moon Forest was called the Great Heavenly Moon Forest was because the Great Heavenly Moon Forest wasn't too scary during the day. It was just some ordinary monsters and beasts.
His strength was only equivalent to a Mysterious Master Stage expert. Occasionally, there would be Mysterious King Stage demonic beasts, but as long as you didn't provoke it, it wouldn't provoke you.
So, according to the strength of our team, it's still more than enough to deal with them. Even if we encounter Mysterious King Stage demonic beasts, with everyone working together, even Mysterious King Stage demonic beasts would not be able to deal with us.
However, at night, especially on the full moon, it would become extremely terrifying. In the full moon night, the strength of all the demon beasts in the Great Moon Forest would increase by an unknown level, and at the same time, it would become extremely tyrannical. Only, at that time, they would not take a single step out of the Great Moon Forest, but would only fight and kill each other in the Great Moon Forest.
Therefore, every night after the full moon, there would be beast corpses scattered all over the Great Moon Forest. Blood of various colors flowed like a river. However, all of these things would disappear from the Great Moon Forest in the morning of the second day after the full moon night. Aside from some bloodstains, nothing else would remain as if they had vanished into thin air.
That time, we officially set off at the beginning of the month and arrived at the Great Heavenly Moon Forest ten days after the full moon. That day, we were also preparing to leave the Great Heavenly Moon Forest before nightfall, but we didn't expect to meet the Zhang family.
The Zhang family said that the Ye Emperor Essence does not like places that had blood, and it would even wither when its main body touches blood. Therefore, on a full moon night, the demon beasts in the Great Heavenly Moon Forest would fight with each other, but blood would always flow, so we just need to find a place that is weaker and form a defensive line.
When that time comes, the entire Great Heavenly Moon Forest will be in a state of chaos. Only our defense line will be in the cleanest state.
At the beginning, I was a little hesitant, because there was once a group of powerful mercenaries that came to the Heavenly Moon Great Forest on the night of the full moon to take advantage of the demon beasts killing to pick up some of the demon beasts' treasures. But on the second day, none of them survived, leaving the Heavenly Moon Great Forest alive.
When the other mercenaries went in to search on the second day, they were not even able to find a single piece of clothing or weapons, let alone a corpse. It was understandable that their bodies had been eaten by those demon beasts that had lost their minds. However, the weapons and some of the equipment on the mercenaries' bodies had all disappeared.
It was also because of the strangeness of this matter that it became a taboo in the full moon night in the Great Heavenly Moon Forest.
However, the people of Zhang family assured me that they have already found a mountain. Which demonic beast is weak? Moreover, there are very few of them. Furthermore, the people of Zhang family told me that the breakthrough of Owner is imminent.
Most of the people I brought were people who had received kindness from our pill shop, so they agreed. Who knew that the other night would be...
As he said that, Wei Zhenyang's eyes reddened, and a look of extreme fear appeared on his face. He swallowed his saliva, and spoke with a slightly perturbed tone: "That night, the entire army of our pill shop was annihilated, and I only managed to escape the Great Moon Forest with my life under the protection of a few dao friends.
"Even though I managed to escape, I was heavily poisoned and my medicinal pills were incurable. However, at the very last moment, I broke through to a fifth-grade alchemist and was able to suppress the poison in my body to such an extent."
Qin Rufeng felt that something was amiss when he heard this. His Qin family had never heard of the Full moon night in the Heavenly Moon Forest before, so he asked, "How could such an expert from your pill shop be completely wiped out? With your strength and sufficient pills, they should at least have two Xuan Kings, right?"
