The clown-like looks from people around me felt like needles pricking me.

It's extremely embarrassing and uncomfortable.

“White—Owl—!!!”

Someone almost broke his back teeth.

But what does this have to do with the innocent Lingzhou?

After passing the secret inspection and surveillance of the King of Medicine and having eaten and drunk well, he opened the gift box and obtained the real meeting coordinates.

When he saw Green Hibiscus and several other unfamiliar faces with dark complexions, staring at him unkindly—

Lingzhou was so happy that he sneered inwardly.

Are you trying to entertain me and waste my time?

I can't kill you.

Chapter 166: To Become a Being Beyond Humanity

"White Owl, why do you...consume so much?"

"Big? It's just a few million credits. The organization won't be stingy with such a small amount of money, right?"

Lingzhou looked surprised, then his eyes were filled with a hint of disdain, and then suspicion.

"If the organization's cash flow is tight, I'll double the amount I just spent later."

Seeing Ling Zhou's expression change without any flaws, Lu Furong and others' faces turned dark.

It was especially ugly when I saw his disdainful eyes and suspicious expression.

Anyone who is not a fool can understand what it means.

I doubt that the secret teachings of the King of Medicine are powerful!

"Don't worry, I don't mean to hold you accountable..."

Green Hibiscus wanted to put on a stern face but didn't dare to, so she had to suppress her emotions and pretend to be calm.

"It's just that if you spend such a large sum without asking first, it will easily attract unnecessary attention."

"What's this?"

Lingzhou curled his lips.

"The more brazenly I act, the less likely the Cloud Cavalry will suspect I'm part of their organization. I doubt many people in their organization dare to show their faces in public, right?"

Green Hibiscus: “…”

Ling Zhou: "Am I wrong?"

I learned this from you guys, don’t you like it?

whee.

"To do the opposite is indeed a bold way to divert attention."

A strange voice was heard.

Green Hibiscus quickly turned around and saluted.

"Master Zi Yueji!"

"Ah."

Zi Yueji nodded lightly and looked at Lingzhou with admiration.

"You are an outsider, and a newcomer to my Medicine King's secret teachings. The more low-profile you act, the harder it will be for the hounds to find you."

"A few million credits are just a drop in the bucket for the Medicine King's Secret Teachings."

Is that so? Ling Zhou curled his lips secretly.

I've been waiting for you to say this.

Don't give him a chance, or he will show you what it means to eat and take at the same time.

"You've tested me for so long, isn't that enough? Although I'm someone who seeks power, I'm not someone who will be easily treated like a monkey."

"Don't look down on me just because I'm short-lived."

Hearing this, Green Hibiscus frowned.

"Calm down, White Owl. With such a great cause at hand, everyone in the organization is simply being cautious, and we are not playing tricks on you."

"Master Zi Yueji, this is the White Owl I mentioned to you. He is a very reliable cultivator."

"White Owl, Lord Zi Yueji is the head of the Changletian region. He will give you what you want."

Only then did Lingzhou look Zi Yueji up and down.

Zi Yueji didn't care about his scrutinizing look, "I can see that you are indeed very skilled."

Ling Zhou: "But I see you're very weak. It feels like you'll have to lie down for a few days if you get hit by one punch."

Green Hibiscus's expression changed: "How dare you!"

Lingzhou immediately raised his hand and punched the rock next to him.

As the force burst out, the rocks exploded, raising a cloud of dust.

The sudden move made the eyes of several gardeners almost pop out of their heads.

This guy has terrifying brute force.

The stone is so hard that even a cultivator who can manifest the appearance of the King of Medicine would find it difficult to completely break it with one blow using weapons.

If he develops rapidly and can be promoted to Medicine King in the future...

The future is limitless!

Green Hibiscus shrank her neck and stopped talking.

Originally, he just admired Lingzhou a little bit and didn't take it too seriously in his heart.

It's just a short-lived species from outside.

Only now did Green Hibiscus realize that she had underestimated the other party a lot.

Zi Yueji clapped her hands.

"You have good abilities, but I like your personality more. You are confident enough. Only those who are confident enough have the ability to realize their ambitions."

"Well, I have a question for you—"

"Why would a strong person like you want to become the cultivator of the Medicine King's secret teachings?"

Lingzhou pointed to the green hibiscus.

"What he said, that if you gain immortality, you can pursue more and stronger power, is indeed true."

"But to be honest, I now doubt whether I have really been deceived, because... you are weak."

This time, Green Hibiscus and the others knew what to do and kept quiet.

Can't refute it.

This guy is incredibly powerful.

Green Hibiscus finally realized that White Owl was not a simple-minded martial arts fanatic.

It's just an illusion on the surface, but in fact he is quite scheming.

But the more cautious White Owl was, the less suspicious he became of the other party.

Only the hunting dogs who intend to infiltrate the secret teachings of the King of Medicine will be eager to join and obey whatever they are told to do.

The white owl is different.

Although he has a wild temper, he has the ability to be wild.

If tamed well, it will definitely be a great help in the development of the organization.

I was so lucky to meet a white owl and make a fortune.

Green Hibiscus could tell from Zi Yueji's expression that she was not angry at all, that he was not the only one who thought so.

Zi Yueji said: "Some things require talent."

"I used to think that as long as I trained hard, I would become a strong person, but that's not the case."

"In my long career as a cloud rider, I have realized one thing—"

"Human beings have their strength limited!"

"In terms of talent, even immortal humans are not much different from short-lived humans."

"The world is never fair. I once believed that my efforts were as good as anyone else's."

"But I have trained hard for nearly a hundred years and killed countless enemies, but I still can't defeat Youshan..."

Ling Zhou looked puzzled: "So?"

Zi Yueji's voice suddenly rose.

"So we must become a being that transcends humanity!"

"Joining the Medicine King Secret Sect and becoming a cultivator gives me the opportunity to surpass humans!"

"Give up your mortal body and become a follower of the Compassionate Medicine King, and you will gain unimaginable power!"

Zi Yueji took out a paper recipe and handed it to Ling Zhou.

"Here, what you desire."

"As long as you take this medicine, you will be able to transcend the mortal body like me, gain ultimate life and power, and gain... freedom..."

"The elixir cultivator in the organization heard that you were an outstanding fighter, so he prescribed this recipe for you."

Lingzhou glanced at him and asked, "Why don't you just give me the medicine?"

Zi Yueji: "It's because of the extraordinary times. It's easy to be targeted. You are different."

"With your intelligence and ability, getting these herbs should be a piece of cake."

"Besides that, the organization has a very important task entrusted to you."

Lingzhou put away the recipe and answered a question that was not asked.

"What benefits can I get?"

"As long as you complete the task, you will receive personal guidance from the leader and soar to the sky."

Ling Zhou smiled, "Such a good opportunity is given to me, and you don't want it?"

Zi Yueji shook her head and said, "My past identity was sensitive and I cannot carry out this mission."

"Murder and arson, or 'abandoning the dark and joining the light'?"

"the latter."

"Tell me, you know, I'm very suspicious and afraid that I'll be used as a tool."

Zi Yueji showed no impatience and began to explain.

"Remember that Youshan I mentioned earlier? He was just a Vajra Master, only as tall as my chest, and he only lived for sixty years..."

"The Chiming people are naturally powerful. I can't defeat him. It's definitely not because I haven't mastered the skills well enough, nor is it because I've neglected my training."

"It's purely due to the different muscle structure. The Vajra Masters who were born in the ancient sea of ​​the Scale Abyss are constantly swimming under tremendous water pressure."

"Therefore, their strength is naturally superior to us immortal boat people who have only set foot on land!"

"Even if I live for another few hundred years, I will never be able to transcend the genetic gap or surpass Youshan."

"This is the sad fate of mankind, the fate of not being able to become the strongest."

"To be honest, I was once a member of the Hounds and almost became a Cloud Rider instructor."

"But so what? I will never be able to break through the barrier between myself and those gifted people."

"So I joined the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, took the Dragon Coiled and Snake Leaping Technique in your hand, and finally became a powerful being that no mortal could reach."

Speaking of this, Zi Yueji's face showed some emotion.
