I Have Medicinechapter 244: gongyi tianheng returns

Gu Zuo heard what was said. Not only were there Duanshui Hall, Clear Water Pavilion, Wild Martial Arts Society, Autumn Waters Association, and other large forces on the Earth Leaderboard, there were also all kinds of unobtrusive and inconspicuous forces backed by Immortal Realm powerhouses which had sent out people.

On the Martial Prowess Platform, underneath the Earth Leaderboard, the disciples of both Sects would come here on their own to battle each other every day. Qingyun Sect still lost more than it won, but in the end, they had many people. From the very beginning, only the comparatively powerful were chosen. Afterwards, more and more experts were called out from seclusion to retrieve some face from Chongyun Sect.

Besides this, the restaurants, tea shops, medicine stores, and other places in the Business Districts both inside and outside the Sect were frequented by Chongyun Sect disciples wearing looks of disdain. As for the Qingyun Sect disciples, they definitely couldn’t endure it. They would take out their best things and compete with the Chongyun Sect disciples. Amid these competitions, it usually led to a big fight breaking out.

When one side lost, they would ask for their own side’s experts. These experts would win, and the other side would lose. Then, the other side would ask for their own experts to come out… Unwittingly, it could be said that the atmosphere between the two Sects was one with swords drawn and bows bent. Whenever the people of both sides met, they were all “full of youthful vigor” and insisted on pushing down the other party’s head.

At the same time, Qingyun Sect disciples often gathered to hold meetings, roped in alliances, amassed manpower, or initiated mobilizations.

In brief, under this kind of all-out “war”, the consumption of medicinal pills became extremely high for all stores in the Business Districts.

Gu Zuo’s Medicine of Life had lots of high-quality medicinal pills that treated injuries. Whenever a new batch of medicine was supplied, it would be swept clean off the shelves. In addition, the numerous, exhausted pharmacists would spend day and night in a rush to refine pills. Even Gu Zuo couldn’t avoid taking half of every day’s time to conduct some “automated” medicine refinement.

But what subsequently followed were still the huge handfuls of golden banknotes, which would become Gu Zuo’s personal resources and Gongyi Tianheng’s foundation.

While Gu Zuo industriously refined medicine, he nevertheless thought in his heart: Big brother, why haven’t you come back yet… You’ve been journeying for so long. Are you safe? Have you sharpened your position? Are you keeping yourself healthy? Ah, if you don’t come back, there’s no way I can start any talks with Qingyun Sect to ask for resources.

That’s right. Because the psychic power method was very precious, the day after Xu Lingxiu reported to his superiors, Xu Lingxiu dropped by for another visit and came to fetch the psychic power method book.

Of course, Xu Lingxiu also stated clearly that, after the psychic power method’s authenticity was verified, his honored teacher would meet with Gu Zuo. At that time, other great personages would also be present. This would allow Gu Zuo to make preparations.

Gu Zuo was instantly terrified.

When he thought about it, he knew the reason why. Wasn’t it to let him make his requests? However, when his big brother wasn’t here, how was he supposed to know what would be the best requests to make?!

The important point was that he simply had no way of outsmarting those old foxes! If he wasn’t careful and was caught in a pitfall, he would be out of luck… Although he wouldn’t say it was certain that the Sect would dig a pit for him, he still had a hard time grasping the propriety of this kind of business. If the requested things were inappropriate or he worsened that side’s impression, it would be no good.

But there was nothing to be done about an anxious heart. Gu Zuo could only hope that, the next time Xu Lingxiu came to find him, that dear big brother of his was able to return.

Outside Qingyun Sect.

Some martial artists were just about to enter. Suddenly, the pungent stench of blood wafted over. They couldn’t help turning their heads, and vigilantly looking towards a distant location.

Over there, the silhouettes of two people arrived at flying speeds. Although the figures were far away, the eyesight of these martial artists could see that the bodies of those two people were practically drenched red with blood. That heavy stench of blood had almost solidified as it travelled from their bodies!

— Who were these two people?

Thinking about the many recent conflicts with Chongyun Sect, the complexions of these martial artists became guarded and the muscles all over their bodies were stretched taut.

If the two were members of Chongyun Sect, what did they do to have such a terrifying, bloody stench…

Once the two people were about to arrive in front of them, the bodies of these martial artists couldn’t help slightly shuddering.

The closer those two people got, the scarier their auras became. The martial artists suddenly discovered that the intense stench of blood didn’t amount to anything. The resentful energy and killing intent borne within that bloody stench were far more terrifying!

“T-t-that’s—”

Someone’s teeth chattered.

“Wait a second! It’s not someone from Chongyun Sect. It’s Senior Sect Brother Huang!”

All of a sudden, someone else cried out in surprise.

Sure enough, the steps of those two stopped here.

At the same time, their appearances were revealed before the people.

Both of them were draped with bloodied garments — And it definitely wasn’t the sort of natural coloring. From those motley vestiges, one could see that these bloodied garments were stained with real blood. Because some places were stained with too much blood, it had practically turned brown or black. It was absolutely horrifying.

The heights of the two people were about the same. The extremely formidable qi emissions on the left were of a martial artist at the Immortal Realm or above. Although he had reined much of it in, others would still be terrified by the sight of it. This person’s hair was short, stiff, and stood upright. The lips and fingernails were all a pitch-black color, but the exposed skin was a lustrous white. This person’s facial expression was grim and unfeeling, and their slim figure was filled with strength. Wasn’t this the legendary Senior Sect Brother Huang Ji of the Inner Sect?

However, they didn’t recognize the person who arrived with Huang Ji.

That person’s face was as handsome as the bright moon in the sky. His posture was tall and straight, and his body was perfectly proportioned. His temperament was also extremely graceful. If it wasn’t for being covered in blood, which brought about a wild and vicious intent, he would’ve been like a noble young master dressed in finery, giving others a feeling of elegance and poise. However, after taking another look at the injuries that blanketed his skin and his already tattered clothing, one would know that he had experienced a tempering of life and death. He simply couldn’t be compared to those people who lived like princes.

— In fact, by just seeing that he could keep up with Huang Ji’s speed with his Xiantian Realm, it was already enough to show that he was out of the ordinary.

But fortunately, the two of them were members of Qingyun Sect. As far as these martial artists were concerned, regardless of whether fellow disciples had harmonious relations or not, so long as they weren’t Chongyun Sect’s people, they could set aside their ill-feelings.

Hence, those couple of Inner Sect disciples said in greeting: “Senior Sect Brother Huang. This honorable Senior Sect Brother.”

Gongyi Tianheng raised an eyebrow.

Senior Sect Brother? While it hadn’t been long since he entered the Sect, his strength indeed was somewhat stronger than that of these few people.

Huang Ji nodded to these people, and glanced at Tianheng. Then, they flew over and entered the Sect.

The Inner Sect disciples in the back trailed the two figures with their eyes. All of them spoke up:

“Who knows if Senior Sect Brother Huang and the other guy will encounter Chongyun Sect’s people this time around?”

“If they meet, maybe there’ll be a good fight!”

“If you say it like this, I actually hope that they can meet.”

Perhaps, these couple of people really had crow beaks. When Huang Ji and Tianheng crossed over that abyss and rushed straight into the Inner Sect, they just so happened to hear the sounds of fighting.

As the number one on the Sky Leaderboard, Huang Ji normally wasn’t someone who meddled in the affairs of others, but he still listened to some voices.

Tianheng also listened.

The two didn’t need to look at one another. They just went towards that direction.

Tianheng said in astonishment: “Chongyun Sect? What Sect is that?”

Yes. If it was only a fight between ordinary Inner Sect disciples, they wouldn’t have been the least bit interested. But now was different. Amid those noises, they clearly heard words like “Chongyun Sect”, “Don’t let them get away with this”, “Arrogant”, and so on… Naturally, they wanted to go over and have a look.

Huang Ji’s expression was grave and stern as he flashed over.

Tianheng followed closely behind, and didn’t fall half a step behind — Through life and death tempering, he had gradually combined those many body techniques which he previously comprehended. He already had the embryonic form of an extremely powerful body technique. When utilized, it could be said that it distantly surpassed the other various techniques that he could presently obtain.

Between body flickers, the two had arrived at the location of those clamorous noises.

Up ahead, two sides were in a confrontation. On one side, many had received serious injuries. As for the people on the other side, one was right in the middle of “sparring” with a Qingyun Sect disciple. However, his moves were utterly ruthless. When that palm swatted out, the qi waves overflowed the sky. Once it struck, it would thoroughly cripple the opposing disciple!

Although they arrived in an instant, Tianheng had already completely seen through the situation of the people here.

The side that belonged to Qingyun Sect only had a total of seven people. Three of whom had been completely crippled, two were seriously injured and were near death, one could barely move and was casting a hateful look at the other side, and another person was just one step away from being crippled!

By contrast was the other side. Let alone being crippled, there was merely a single person who was seriously injured. The others were, at most, only lightly injured.

For both sides, the number of people and the realms were about the same. However, in the end, the discrepancies between them were so large!

There was no need to overthink things right now. They would save that person first before anything else.

Huang Ji and Tianheng’s reactions were very fast. Regardless of the outcome, the circumstances here made it unsuitable for Huang Ji to take action. As a result, before Huang Ji moved, Tianheng’s body flashed. In the blink of an eye, he arrived next to the Qingyun Sect disciple being attacked faster than that side’s ruthless move!

Shortly thereafter, Tianheng stretched out a hand, and firmly slapped from the bottom to the side —

Boom!

Qi waves rolled on. Brimming with power, the waves surged out in all directions.

That person who originally grasped the winning ticket in his hand only felt that his own palm had been struck by a lump of iron falling out of the sky. He felt that his qi energy had been damaged. A mouthful of blood was going to clot in his internal organs!

He repeatedly retreated several steps back, and clearly saw that someone from the other side had blocked his attack and snatched his prey.
