Chapter 548: Reward (1)

“In fact, that person didn’t die at all. He recovered quickly after taking the pills you refined. I gave him benefits, so he was willing to cooperate with me to frame you!” Sun Wei explained.

“He didn’t die? Then where is he now?” Zheng En asked while suppressing his anger. He really didn’t expect his momentary kindness to cause him an undeserved calamity!

“I don’t know either. However, he should be living a good life now because I gave him a lot of money back then,” Sun Wei said.

“Living a good life? Sun Wei, why didn’t you kill that person to silence him? Didn’t you silence many people who worked for you back then?” Zheng En said in puzzlement.

“I wanted to kill him, but that person was very cunning. He slipped away by himself before I could do anything. I’ve never found his whereabouts!” Sun Wei said gloomily. Alas! He wouldn’t have chased Zheng En for more than a decade if that person hadn’t disappeared!

“I didn’t expect you to fail as well,” Zheng En said coldly.

“Yes, I didn’t expect him to slip away so quickly either,” Sun Wei said with slight regret.

“Sun Wei, you did all sorts of bad things and bullied your master and ancestors. Don’t you have nightmares at night?” Zheng En asked very curiously.

“I didn’t. I was forced.” Sun Wei defended himself.

“Haha, Sun Wei, I’ve lived for so long, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone as thick-skinned as you,” Zheng En said disdainfully.

“I had no choice,” Sun Wei emphasized.

“Sun Wei, was there any other reason why you framed me back then besides being jealous of me?” Zheng En couldn’t understand. If it was just jealousy, he shouldn’t have been tortured to death!

“No. I want to become the disciple of the president of the Alchemist Association. However, your existence is too much pressure on me, so I had no choice but to attack you. In fact, I also treat you as a friend.” Sun Wei tried to move him with affection because he thought he knew Zheng En very well. Zheng En had always been a very kind and righteous man in his heart. Otherwise, he would not have successfully framed him back then.

“Sun Wei, don’t insult my intelligence. You’ve never treated me as a friend. You approached me with a reason from the beginning,” Zheng En said very coldly. He really didn’t expect Sun Wei to still want to use his kindness now. Alas! Did Sun Wei really think he was still the Zheng En from back then?

“I’m telling the truth.” Sun Wei’s attitude was abnormally sincere.

“Sun Wei, no one will believe you anymore, including your master,” Zheng En reminded kindly.

“Master? Where is my master? I want to see my master!” Sun Wei heard the word master as if he had grabbed onto a life-saving straw.

“Sun Wei, don’t waste your energy. Your master doesn’t want to see you.” Zheng En looked at the middle-aged man beside him and said honestly.

“No, no. Master won’t treat me like this.” Sun Wei didn’t believe that his master, who had always loved him, would not recognize him!

“You don’t even acknowledge your master anymore. It’s only right for your master to treat you like this,” Zheng En reminded.

“I was forced. I was really forced. Master, believe me, save me. I don’t want to die!” Sun Wei shouted crazily, but he didn’t receive any response. Even Zheng En’s voice disappeared..

In the forest.

Leng Ruoxue looked at the dozens of old men with different expressions around her. These old men were the elders of the Alchemist Association who were once locked up by Sun Wei. Sun Wei’s master, Ren Li, was naturally among them.

“Now that you know the truth, do you have anything to say?” Leng Ruoxue raised her eyebrows and asked coldly. She wouldn’t care about the lives of these old men at all if it weren’t for the sake of justice for Zheng En!

“We..” An elder wanted to say something, but he didn’t know how to say it!

“We what? So? Is returning justice to my subordinates making things difficult for you? In that case, there’s no need for you to live anymore!” Leng Ruoxue said very ruthlessly.

“You can’t kill us! We are respected alchemists!” another elder said in disbelief.

“Respected alchemists? Haha, this is too funny. In my eyes, you are just stray dogs. Since I saved you but you can’t be used by me, then there’s no point in you living. I don’t raise idle people. Transcend as early as possible!” Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.

“Xue’er, they won’t be able to reincarnate even if they die,” the freak said gloatingly.

“That’s true. I’ll keep their souls for refining pills. It’s said that in ancient times, there was a pill that required souls to refine,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly.

“Lass, you know that too?” the little old man said in surprise.

“Yes, Grandpa Du, do you know that too?” Leng Ruoxue asked in return.

“Haha, lass, I also read about it in an ancient book. I heard that pills with souls added could be nurtured into pill spirits,” the little old man said with great interest.

“Grandpa Du, let’s refine a pill spirit after we find all the herbs. It will save us a lot of trouble with the pill spirit!” Leng Ruoxue suggested. Her beautiful eyes kept circling the dozens of elders as if she was looking for a suitable soul!

Leng Ruoxue’s conversation with the little old man made the hair on the bodies of the elders present stand on end. Boohoo.. This woman was really too ruthless. They didn’t want to be refined into pill spirits!

“Okay. Hehe, I’m afraid only you can refine an alchemist spirit! Well, my good disciple also has a chance,” the little old man said with envy. The conditions for refining an alchemist spirit were very stringent. Apart from having a soul, the requirements for alchemists’ flames were also very high! There was no way to refine a soul unless it was a divine flame.

“Yes, there are so many souls. If we find enough herbs, we should be able to refine many pill spirits. Grandpa Du, I’ll give each of you one then,” Leng Ruoxue said very generously.

“Hehe, Lass, I’ll wait for you to say that. Leave the soul extraction to me. I know how to do it!” the little old man volunteered. Hmph! These elders really didn’t care about face. They actually dared to put on airs at a time like this. The lass would not tolerate them!
