Dandy Pill God-Chapter 98: The Reason Why Breakthrough Is Impossible

At this point in the conversation, Wen Lei didn’t continue speaking. Instead, he picked up a teacup in front of him, gently sipped from it, and then looked at Zhu Fei with an inquiring gaze.

He didn’t understand why Zhu Fei was so anxious about the matter concerning the Blood Evil Sect.

Indeed, the power of the Blood Evil Sect was not to be underestimated, and Zhu Fei did indeed have a deadly feud with them.

But after all, the Blood Evil Sect was a "heretical" sect with no base in the secular world and no official power.

Under such circumstances, with Zhu Fei’s current level of cultivation, if he really set his heart on fleeing, wouldn’t the Blood Evil Sect find it difficult to locate him?

Moreover, in all this, there was Chunqiu Pavilion.

Given Zhu Fei’s relationship with Elder Song from the Pavilion, even if the Blood Evil Sect did find Zhu Fei, so what? Could it be that Chunqiu Pavilion would really abandon Zhu Fei?

At worst, Zhu Fei seemed to also know the two big shots from Tiannan Province, didn’t he?

With the abilities of Old Meng and Elder Qiu, arranging a protection network for Zhu Fei, or to be more direct, planning for him to go abroad, wouldn’t seem like a difficult task. Could the Blood Evil Sect really chase Zhu Fei all the way to another country?

So, at this moment, Wen Lei was very puzzled; he really couldn’t fathom why Zhu Fei cared so much about the Blood Evil Sect. Could it be that he was truly afraid of the Blood Evil Sect to such an extent?

"Sigh—"

Zhu Fei let out a long sigh, lifted his head to look at Wen Lei, and upon seeing Wen Lei’s questioning gaze, was momentarily startled.

But he quickly realized the meaning behind Wen Lei’s look and couldn’t help but respond with a wry smile,

"Brother Wen, are you wondering why I am so concerned about the Blood Evil Sect?"

Seeing Zhu Fei bring up the subject on his own, Wen Lei no longer hid his curiosity and nodded, expressing his bewilderment, "Indeed, although the Blood Evil Sect’s strength is formidable, I don’t think it’s sufficient to cause such a reaction from you, Brother Zhu. So...?"

At this point, Wen Lei didn’t continue but silently waited for Zhu Fei’s answer.

To tell the truth, before coming to Lan City, Song Yan had specifically instructed him about how remarkable Zhu Fei was and suggested that he should try his best to form an alliance with him.

And indeed, he was doing just that.

After all, Song Yan was the only elder in Chunqiu Pavilion who navigated both the secular world and the Ancient Martial World. In terms of perspective and experience, Wen Lei admitted he was no match for Song Yan.

Therefore, Wen Lei took Song Yan’s instructions very seriously. frёewebnoѵēl.com

But now, looking at Zhu Fei in front of him, he seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with what Song Yan had described.

If Zhu Fei really had such limited magnanimity and capability, that would be truly disappointing.

"Heh heh, not hiding anything from you, Brother Wen, my anxiety over the Blood Evil Sect’s people coming to Lan City is because I’m afraid they’ll target my friends," Zhu Fei said, as he shared with Wen Lei the concerns he had about the Blood Evil Sect.

Aside from the matter of Tang Mengyun’s Ice Heart Body previously mentioned by Yan Chong, he told Wen Lei almost everything he knew about the Blood Evil Sect.

The reason he didn’t mention Tang Mengyun’s Ice Heart Body was partly unnecessary, and partly because he himself was still unsure if what Yan Chong had told him was actually true.

Regarding the Ice Heart Body, Zhu Fei was clear; he knew it was one of the Cultivation World’s ten most excellent Spirit Roots for practice.

Moreover, it was a hidden Spirit Root which would generally be impossible to detect before its complete awakening.

At least, Zhu Fei had been with Tang Mengyun for so long without noticing anything.

It was clear that Yan Chong and the former Murderer both seemed to exhibit an intense interest in Tang Mengyun, which truly puzzled Zhu Fei.

Despite having been a dominant force in his previous life, having seen countless facets of the world, Zhu Fei was, after all, not a god. Some things may still be beyond his knowledge.

However, Zhu Fei recognized that this moment was not suitable for further contemplation on these issues. After briefly recalibrating his thoughts, he once again turned his attention to Wen Lei.

Upon hearing the previous accounts relating to Zhu Fei, Wen Lei’s brows had already deeply furrowed, his eyes reflecting a certain solemnity.

This inevitably caused Zhu Fei’s heart to sink slightly.

A rather unpleasant premonition suddenly rose from the depths of his heart.

As expected, after a moment of silence, Wen Lei spoke to Zhu Fei with a serious tone,

"Brother Zhu, I won’t hide it from you. Your previous concerns, given the habitual conduct of the Blood Evil Sect, are indeed very likely to happen."

"However, given our current situation, trying to resolve Yan Chong and his group all at once could prove quite troublesome."

Wen Lei’s words immediately stirred something within Zhu Fei.

He took a deep breath and suddenly asked Wen Lei, "Brother Wen, from what you’re saying, it seems you now know where Yan Chong and his group are settled?"

Wen Lei nodded and said, "Yes, I do know. In fact, as long as they are still in Lan City, they can’t escape the notice of the disciples under Chunqiu Pavilion."

After a brief pause, a hint of difficulty flashed across Wen Lei’s face, but ultimately he continued,

"As I’ve just mentioned, with our current manpower here, trying to take care of Yan Chong and his people all at once is likely to be problematic."

"Even if I signal the pavilion to send reinforcements now, it will take quite some time before they can arrive in Lan City."

"Oh, Brother Wen, that may not necessarily be the case."

Unexpectedly, after hearing Wen Lei’s narration, Zhu Fei’s face suddenly revealed a cryptic smile.

"Uh, Brother Zhu, what do you mean...?"

Wen Lei was somewhat taken aback, not understanding Zhu Fei’s intents—could it be that he had other assistance?

Of course, Zhu Fei did not actually have any assistance, and even his subsequent plan would have to rely on the present Wen Lei.

Naturally, Zhu Fei wasn’t in a hurry to immediately share his plan with Wen Lei.

After a moment of thought, Zhu Fei suddenly asked Wen Lei again, "Brother Wen, if I’m not mistaken, you’ve been stuck at the Dark Energy Perfection realm for quite some time now, haven’t you?"

"Oh, you noticed that?"

There was a flash of light in Wen Lei’s eyes, but he didn’t rush to inquire further. After a brief response, he quietly waited for Zhu Fei to continue.

He had an instinctive feeling that what Zhu Fei was about to say would likely pertain to him.

Indeed, after a brief pause, Zhu Fei continued,

"If I’m not mistaken, Brother Wen, you suffered severe internal injuries in your early years due to your cultivation, and even several of your main meridians are now severely obstructed."

Saying this, Zhu Fei offered a faint smile. In the midst of Wen Lei’s startled and shocked gaze, he finally drew his conclusion.

"And these issues, precisely, are the real reason preventing your cultivation from making a breakthrough."
