Dandy Pill God-Chapter 189: Refining the Jade Pendant Magic Artifact

Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Refining the Jade Pendant Magic Artifact

In that moment, the entire Jade Pavilion felt oppressively silent.

The plainclothes police officers were all pale, their teeth chattering nonstop inside their mouths, their legs nearly giving out beneath them.

And no wonder, the Vice Mayor and the Secretary, such high-ranking officials, had nearly been arrested by them. No matter how you looked at it, the gravity of the situation had reached a critical level.

"Then... then, Mayor Xie, Secretary Lan, just now..."

"Hmph! No need to explain now. Whatever you have to say, you can tell it to your chief later."

The expressions on Xie Ming and Lan Pinghai’s faces showed not the slightest softening, with Xie Ming even taking out his phone without a word and dialing Qu Zhengbo to recount what had just happened.

Upon hearing what Xie Ming had to say, Qu Zhengbo’s reaction was almost the same as those plainclothes officers - a cold sweat broke out on his back in an instant.

Good lord, his own people had nearly arrested the Municipal Party Committee Secretary and the Vice Mayor. This was truly a big mess.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qu Zhengbo immediately put aside all his work, hurriedly drove off, and sped towards this antique street as fast as he could.

"Secretary Lan, Mayor Xie, I..."

At this time, Yao Yifeng also realized the problem.

Upon recognizing the identities of the two people in front of him, the fear in his heart intensified, and he shakily attempted to step forward to explain.

However, Lan Pinghai and his companion had no intention of acknowledging him. Lan Pinghai turned his head and directly addressed Tang Mengyun, who was standing next to Zhu Fei:

"Mengyun, what exactly happened here? Tell Uncle Lan, don’t worry, I’ll definitely stand up for you."

Tang Mengyun nodded. Without thinking too much, she recounted all that had transpired to both Lan Pinghai and his companion.

"Thud!"

No sooner had Tang Mengyun finished her explanation than Yao Yifeng suddenly felt weak and collapsed.

He had never imagined that Zhu Fei and Tang Mengyun, these two youngsters, would have such influential connections.

And just now, he had been thinking of...

The more Yao Yifeng pondered over this, the more his heart felt utterly dead.

He knew his end had come. Having offended both the Vice Mayor and the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, there was no way he could continue to make his way in Lan City.

It was likely that his friend from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce wouldn’t escape being implicated either.

Because he was well aware that Vice Mayor Xie Ming was in charge of industry, commerce, and health. In other words, his friend was directly overseen by Xie, who would even have to be respectful to the Bureau Director.

How had he been so blind, offending anyone but those two calamitous stars, who were not only terrifying in combat skills but also had horrific backgrounds.

Yao Yifeng deeply regretted his actions.

But, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

After a few minutes had passed, an out-of-breath Qu Zhengbo finally appeared before Zhu Fei, Lan Pinghai, and the others.

Lan Pinghai, with a darkened countenance and an extremely unkind look in his eyes, swept his gaze over Qu Zhengbo, then extended his hand and pointed straight at Yao Yifeng and the plainclothes police officers.

"Take them all back with you. Proceed with everything according to legal procedures. If there’s any issue, do not let it slide lightly."

...

An hour later, Zhu Fei and Tang Mengyun had returned to Zhu Fei’s home.

After the intervention of Lan Pinghai and Xie Ming, Yao Yifeng and his associates had all been taken to the police station.

Among them, even Yao Yifeng’s friend in the Bureau of Industry and Commerce was temporarily suspended from his position by Xie Ming.

Zhu Fei and Tang Mengyun, however, were sent off by the eager middle-aged shopkeeper, who accepted a symbolic sum of one hundred thousand yuan and handed over the jade pendant magic artifact.

There was no helping it—the apparent background of Zhu Fei had truly frightened the shopkeeper.

No matter what Tang Mengyun said, the middle-aged shopkeeper adamantly refused to take another cent from them.

At this moment, Zhu Fei held the jade pendant magic artifact and spoke earnestly to Tang Mengyun, "Mengyun, drip a drop of your blood on this and then, according to the refining method I taught you, slowly refine this magic artifact."

Hearing Zhu Fei’s words, Tang Mengyun did not hesitate. She nodded and followed Zhu Fei’s instructions, dropping her blood onto the jade pendant magic artifact.

Before the two had returned, Zhu Fei had already told Tang Mengyun about the jade pendant’s characteristics.

As Tang Mengyun’s blood touched the surface of the jade pendant, a halo of yellow light immediately emerged.

Tang Mengyun immediately felt a mysterious connection forming between herself and the jade pendant magic artifact.

Not wanting to delay, she began to refine the jade pendant magic artifact using the method Zhu Fei had taught her.

At the same time, Zhu Fei wasn’t idle; he placed a hand on Tang Mengyun’s back and continuously infused his spiritual power into her body.

This was to assist Tang Mengyun in quickly refining the jade pendant magic artifact.

About another hour later, Zhu Fei finally lifted his hand from Tang Mengyun’s back.

By this point, Tang Mengyun was drenched in sweat.

After all, her cultivation was only at the Qi Refining First Level, and the full perfect refining of a magic artifact was beyond her current capability.

Without Zhu Fei’s help, she probably wouldn’t even be able to complete the most basic refinement.

Fortunately, at this point, the jade pendant magic artifact had finally been initially refined by Tang Mengyun.

With it, Tang Mengyun’s safety was undoubtedly greatly assured.

In the following time, Zhu Fei had Tang Mengyun familiarize herself with the effects of the jade pendant magic artifact and also tested its defensive capabilities.

Zhu Fei was very satisfied with the outcome of the tests.

Currently, even though Tang Mengyun had only initially refined the jade pendant magic artifact, it was enough to withstand all attacks from martial artists below the Mid-stage Power Realm.

Zhu Fei believed that as Tang Mengyun’s cultivation improved and she continued to slowly refine the jade pendant, its defensive power would be further enhanced.

...

Time flew swiftly, and ten days later, Zhu Fei’s figure appeared in Hai Bei City.

Accompanying him were Wen Lei and Huang Su Yan.

Their purpose in coming to Hai Bei City was certainly not casual—it was to attend the auction held by Treasure Pavilion.

The Treasure Pavilion auction was an annual event which took place in different locations each year, and was open only to martial artists—ordinary people were not permitted to participate.

This time, the auction venue was set in a secret estate.
