Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

Zhu Junchen felt a strong sense of frustration.

He recalled that when he had cultivated to this level, he was far inferior to Chen Huo. Now, with decades of experience, he still couldn't defeat Chen Huo.

This made him lose interest in the battle.

Chen Huo, however, became more and more enthusiastic as the fight progressed.

Playing against such a master will lead to extremely rapid improvement.

Just like when Gong Jinghan gave him pointers at the villa in Jinzhou.

If Zhu Junchen were any stronger, he wouldn't be able to improve so quickly.

Even a little weaker won't work.

This is just right.

Zhu Junchen was, after all, a sixth-level Emperor Realm expert with extensive experience. He quickly realized that Chen Huo was making rapid progress. The thought that he had become Chen Huo's whetstone made him furious.

"snort!"

Zhu Junchen let out a low shout and unleashed a powerful attack.

Take advantage of Chen Huo's dodge and retreat quickly.

"Alright, that's enough for today."

After saying that, he turned and left.

He felt embarrassed and didn't want to continue facing Chen Huo.

Chen Huo sighed inwardly at the pity, but there was nothing he could do.

However, there were still some gains from this battle.

He went back to his room and began to cultivate.

……

Dingyang.

The villa where Chen Huo used to live.

Bai Lingyuan, Song Shuyue, Gong Jinghan, Yuan Gang, He Chenglong, Yu Ji, Gu Yingxue, and others gathered in the living room. Everyone looked rather grim. Bai Lingyuan pointed at Yuan Gang's nose and started cursing.

"waste!"

"You bunch of useless trash!"

"Yao Chong'an is one of your core members, and you can't even ascertain his loyalty?"

"The person has been missing for so long, and you haven't found a single clue?"

"Is this the state apparatus you've been touting?"

"..."

Yuan Gang's face was full of bitterness, and he lowered his head, not daring to say a word.

It's not that he was afraid of Bai Lingyuan.

Instead, Bai Lingyuan's criticism was reasonable.

He couldn't refute it.

Yao Chong'an was one of their core members, but he betrayed them.

They mobilized a great deal of manpower and resources, but indeed found no clues whatsoever about Chen Huo.

Their prized state apparatus has indeed failed to function effectively.

He also felt ashamed.

Bai Lingyuan was furious.

How could that brat Chen Huo do something so stupid?

They actually dared to plot against a seventh-level Emperor Realm expert!

If stratagem works, what use is strength?

In the martial arts world, only strength matters.

Releasing the Nine-Turn Return to Emptiness Pill as a smokescreen was a complete blunder.

The risk is too great.

of course.

The main reason was Yao Chong'an's betrayal. Bai Lingyuan knew this in her heart, and she also knew that Chen Huo had thought of it and made arrangements early on. Yao Chong'an died before the next day.

But she was still angry.

How could someone do something so extremely risky?

Even if one wants revenge, can't one wait for their master to break through to a higher realm?

Actually, she was anxious.

I'm so worried.

Song Shuyue had followed her for over ten years and knew her temperament best. She waited until she had finished scolding before speaking.

"Sect Master, calm down first. Let's analyze how to find Chen Huo. If we wait until he refines the Breakthrough Pill, I'm afraid..."

Song Shuyue didn't finish her sentence.

But the meaning is obvious.

The other party kidnapped Chen Huo and stole the Azure Cleansing Fruit and the Spiritual Dew Mushroom hidden in the villa, all for the purpose of refining the Breakthrough Pill. The day the pill is completed will be the day Chen Huo dies.

"Keep a close eye on the national traditional Chinese medicine market!"

Bai Lingyuan, being the head of the Goddess Pavilion, quickly regained her composure and spoke rapidly:

"There are too many forces that want to obtain the Breakthrough Pill. If we investigate them one by one, it will take forever. For now, the most effective method is to keep a close eye on the entire medicinal herb market in the Dragon Kingdom."

At this point, Bai Lingyuan became furious again.

She glared at Yuan Gang and said, "You guys can do that, right?"

Yuan Gang nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Yes!"

"Alright, Gu Yingxue, give Yuan Gang the list of auxiliary ingredients for refining the Breakthrough Pill. You all also need to mobilize all the resources of the Goddess Pavilion to keep a close eye on those herbs! Investigate thoroughly whoever purchases those herbs!"

There are many auxiliary medicines needed to refine the Breakthrough Pill, some of which are rare and others are used very rarely. They are generally difficult for traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to use. Therefore, anyone who purchases these medicinal materials at this time is suspicious.

This is an effective method.

The only concern is that the other party has already prepared the auxiliary ingredients for refining the Breakthrough Pill and will not purchase them at this critical juncture. In that case, it will be very difficult to find the person who kidnapped Chen Huo using this method.

So Bai Lingyuan's heart was still hanging in suspense.

But this is the only arrangement we can make for now.

Everyone got busy.

After seeing everyone off, Bai Lingyuan sighed deeply. Her previous assertive demeanor was gone, replaced by deep weariness and worry, and her body even hunched slightly.

Seeing this, Song Shuyue sighed inwardly.

She was also very worried and exhausted.

But she didn't show it.

Instead, he calmly said, "Sect Master, don't worry. That kid Chen Huo is cunning. He'll definitely tamper with the alchemy process and force him to refine a Breakthrough Pill that's definitely poisonous."

Bai Lingyuan rolled her eyes at her and said, "If his kidnappers knew about the poison pills he concocted, wouldn't he die even faster? Do you think Breakthrough Pills are some common stuff that his kidnappers each have one?"

"..."

Song Shuyue was speechless after being rebuked.

Bai Lingyuan took a deep breath, composed herself, and straightened her back.

"You keep a close eye on things from now on. I'm going to continue my secluded cultivation here, striving to reach the seventh level of the Emperor Realm as soon as possible! Once I find out who kidnapped Huo'er, I'll personally go and wipe out their entire family!"

The one who kidnapped Chen Huo was a sixth-level Emperor Realm expert.

She is at that level as well.

Even if the person is found, it will be difficult to resolve the crisis.

The only way is to improve our strength.

Time quickly passed to the next day.

Last night, Zhu Junchen sealed his internal energy as usual.

I came again this morning to untie him.

At the same time, I told him some news.

"Get ready. The necessary medicinal herbs will be delivered by noon. Once you've refined the Breakthrough Pill, I'll let you go. You'd better not try anything funny, or you'll die a horrible death."

Zhu Junchen's words carried an undisguised threat.

Chen Huo said calmly, "I hope you can keep your promise."

Zhu Junchen felt that Chen Huo was acting too calmly, and he was a little unsure of himself. After thinking for a moment, he reminded him, "After you refine the Breakthrough Pill, you need to test it first, so I advise you not to tamper with the pill!"

Chen Huo's heart stirred, and he deliberately sighed softly, revealing just the right amount of anger and helplessness, and said, "Do you think I can do anything in my current situation? Besides, I'm the one testing the pills myself."

Zhu Junchen was very satisfied with his reaction and felt much more at ease.

But out of caution, he added:

"You know that's good. Let me reiterate, I only want the pills, I don't want to antagonize the Goddess Pavilion, so don't overthink it, and get yourself ready to refine the pills."
