Chapter 179 - 116: Kidnapping Chen Sheng, Mantis
Translator: 549690339
Zhou Family disciples have special status.
Zhou Kang was not too surprised in his heart. Although it was only a little over a month, Liang Sheng had convinced the alchemist in the shop, which showed that the other party indeed had alchemy skills and was worthy of his desire to get close to.
At this time, Liang Sheng looked at Zhou Kang apologetically, his eyes indicating that he wanted to go over and take a look. Zhou Kang immediately let him go, not caring about himself, and feeling free to do so.
Watching Liang Sheng leave with the Alchemist, Zhou Kang’s eyes were full of brilliance, wondering when the other party would be able to help him.
Just then, Yang Zhaoyu’s voice came from behind him, “Chen Sheng becoming an Alchemist Guest Elder in the shop is really a great deal. Speaking of which, we have to thank Fu Liantao and his partner Ban Zhihe. If it weren’t for them, how could Chen Sheng have achieved this?”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kang nodded without speaking, and Yang Zhaoyu continued.
“However, in this month, we can see that the other party is indeed a Pill Maniac. Otherwise, why would he have exchanged all his Guest Elder shares for the spiritual grass needed to refine True Yuan Pills? It’s just a pity that he finally failed in the refining process.
But 1 asked the Sect’s alchemists in our shop, and they all said that it wasn’t a problem with Chen Sheng’s alchemy skills, but rather that the other party’s cultivation level was not enough. Otherwise, Chen Sheng might have succeeded in refining True Yuan Pills.”
“Oh?”
Zhou Kang was not aware of this matter. Yang Zhaoyu could not help but laugh: “Don’t doubt that you heard it wrong. If Chen Sheng can reach the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer, he may be able to refine True Yuan Pills. If he reaches the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, it’s not impossible for him to refine medium-quality True Yuan Pills.
This is actually what our chief alchemist, Junior Brother Wang, said. He also admires and respects Chen Sheng’s alchemy skills.”
“What a pity.”
“Yes, it’s a pity!”
This person’s fate is simply not enough.
However, on the path of cultivation, how many gifted people have missed the view of the cultivation journey because of the word “fate”?
At this time, Zhou Kang looked at Liang Sheng, who had already entered the room of another alchemist, always feeling that the other party might still have other special features, as his intuition would not deceive him.
While Liang Sheng’s plan successfully infiltrated the Hua Tian Sect’s store, on the other side, something went wrong in the black market outside the Market.
For many years now, the black market has been running steadily, especially since Pei Shiping established his Foundation and the black market became more stable.
However, Pei Shiping also began to pay attention to his image, and from time to time, he only went to the black market once in a while, as Fu Liantao and his partner were in charge, and no problems occurred in the black market.
But this time, by the time the black market opened, all the invited guests brought their own treasured collections to the black market, only to be tragically robbed by Fu Liantao and his partner in the end.
Fortunately, Fu Liantao did not kill anyone, otherwise, many people would have died inexplicably. However, this robbery left everyone somewhat dumbfounded.
They didn’t know the true identity of the Black Market Controller and lost all their treasured resources. Though their anger went through the roof, they didn’t know where to vent it.
This was the black market after all; they couldn’t ask the Three Sects and Six Orders for justice. In this situation, they suddenly realized that they couldn’t do anything.
While the situation in the black market was reported to Pei Shiliang that night, his face turned bad at the time, and without any hesitation, he directly reported the situation to Pei Shiping.
“Fu Liantao and Ban Zhihe have great courage.”
Pei Shiping’s face was not very good either. He had thought that the black market might have an accident, but he just didn’t expect Fu Liantao and his partner to start so early, after all, they still had a few good years to live.
“Immediately send someone to keep an eye on the loose cultivators’ whereabouts in the Market. As soon as Fu Liantao and his partner appear, come and find me.”
“Yes, Ancestor.”
At this moment, Liang Sheng was unaware of what had happened in the black market and was proceeding with his plan according to his own rhythm.
With his reputation as a Pill Maniac, he had completely won over the Hua Tian Sect’s alchemists in the shop over the past month.
After all, they were just Alchemists dispatched outside; their alchemy skills might be a bit stronger than those of the loose cultivators, but how much stronger could they be?
Otherwise, why would they be sent to the shop in the Market?
Yang Zhaoyu was very satisfied with Liang Sheng’s performance during this period, as the Qi Refining Pills he refined were very profitable.
Without a single failure in alchemy, he couldn’t help but feel more pity that Liang Sheng’s cultivation aptitude was too poor.
Over the past month, he had watched the other party consume Qi Refining Pills like candy, but unfortunately, the cultivation speed was extremely slow. With the other party’s ability to reach the Qi Cultivation Fifth Realm, it was already a great feat for an alchemist.
If it weren’t for his alchemy skills, he would probably struggle to reach the Third Layer of Qi Cultivation at this moment. If only his aptitude was better, he would have made a greater effort to turn him into an official disciple of the Hua Tian Sect.
Of course, with his status, he could only make Liang Sheng become an Outer Sect Disciple, but the result was ultimately a pity.
At this moment, Liang Sheng was preparing to leave the shop. After saying goodbye to Yang Zhaoyu, he headed in the direction of the Cave Mansion.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the shop, he noticed something strange.
Hmm?
Is someone following me?
It seemed that the other party had ill intentions; otherwise, why would they disguise themselves? If it weren’t for Liang Sheng’s Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation level, he might have been fooled by the other party’s concealment.
Concealment Talisman!
Fu Liantao, Ban Zhihe!
Liang Sheng immediately figured out the other party’s identity and what methods they used, but he was not sure how they would launch their attack.
After all, he was in the Market. However, the next moment he understood what the other party wanted to do, because the two had already approached him.. How could he, a “Qi Cultivation Fifth Realm”, possibly escape them?
