Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 130: What Makes Him So Special?
a.m.
Spirit Pill Workshop.
"Pavilion Master, according to your instructions, we have cleaned the entire workshop, and the alchemy room is also tidied up."
Pei Daoyu sat at the top seat, all the medicine officers in the workshop respectfully saluted, each showing fatigue on their faces.
During the day, Pei Daoyu had ordered everyone to thoroughly clean the entire Spirit Pill Workshop, refurbish the alchemy room he used, and tidy up the two bedrooms in the backyard.
The medicine officers had been busy all day and only finished their work at 1 a.m., when the night was deep and quiet.
Pei Daoyu nodded: "You may leave now."
Everyone responded respectfully, Wang Ping and Xu Li exchanged a glance, unable to hold back, and asked:
"Pavilion Master, are we expecting a distinguished guest tomorrow?"
This massive cleanup and refurbishment stirred curiosity among everyone about the guest the Pavilion Master was preparing for at the workshop.
Pei Daoyu said: "A new owner will arrive at the Spirit Pill Workshop in these few days. Make sure to clock in on time, without fail!"
p> "The Spirit Pill Workshop is changing ownership?"
They all looked at each other, but dared not ask more, and left after saluting.
Pei Daoyu stood up, walked to the window, with hands behind his back, gazing at the bright moon, and laughed softly.
Tomorrow he will deliver the deed of the Spirit Pill Workshop to Qin Gengyun’s residence, appointing Qin Gengyun as the new pavilion master.
He knows Qin Gengyun has a wife and a sister-in-law at home, so he deliberately ordered the two bedrooms in the backyard to be prepared for Qin Gengyun’s women to reside in.
He is showing genuine sincerity, thinking that Qin Gengyun will not reject him.
Once Chang Chunzi has been missing for a long time, and the Chang Family sends someone to investigate, he can push Qin Gengyun to the forefront.
Watching Qin Gengyun and the Chang Family clash.
If Qin Gengyun is killed by the Chang Family, he would claim he had long suspected Qin Gengyun, handing over the Spirit Pill Workshop was just a means to get close for investigation, allowing him to switch allegiance to the Chang Family.
If Qin Gengyun is supported by forces that the Chang family cannot touch, he must hold onto this influential ally.
Perhaps, in the future, all low-grade pills supplied to the Zhenyang Sect from Yunling Town will be under his control!
Pei Daoyu’s cultivation talent was ordinary; he was in his thirties and still stuck at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation, and was only a Second Tier Alchemist.
Though barely notable in Yunling Town, he would be like an ant outside.
He managed to open an alchemy workshop on the outskirts of Caifeng Street, sustaining it for years, not relying on cultivation but his wits.
However, nobody knew that under Pei Daoyu’s seemingly immortal demeanor hid a significant ambition.
He aspired far beyond being a mere workshop master; he wished to establish a clan, like the Chang Family, creating a grand family to govern a town!
He wanted to be an ancestor!
Chang Chunzi, the Chang Family, and Qin Gengyun were merely his stepping stones.
"Hehe, one day... huh?"
Pei Daoyu was filled with ambition when suddenly he felt a chill behind him, quickly turning around, his eyes widened instantly.
There was someone behind him unbeknownst to him!
It was a female cultivator.
Tall stature, white hair, white attire, her face veiled with white gauze, revealing only a pair of cold, alluring, peach blossom eyes, seemingly seductive yet exuding icy killing intent.
"Who are you?!"
Pei Daoyu stepped back, asking while discreetly reaching behind, holding more than ten pieces of talisman paper.
The white-haired female cultivator moved her legs slowly towards him, her voluptuous figure swaying slightly with each step, a stunning beauty, enticing and captivating.
Yet, at this moment, Pei Daoyu felt no desire, for he sensed the terrible killing intent from the white-haired female cultivator.
"Esteemed senior, I have never made enemies with anyone; perhaps there is some misunderstanding?"
Pei Daoyu’s eyes flickered, bending to salute the white-haired female cultivator, suddenly waved his hand, sending over ten talisman papers flying towards her!
Instantly, a dazzling display of flames, lightning, frost... all directed at the white-haired female cultivator.
Pei Daoyu wielded two short knives, emitting green sword aura, hidden behind the talisman papers.
These were Pei Daoyu’s crucial life-saving tricks; unless the opponent’s cultivation greatly surpassed his by two or three realms, she’d be severely injured at least if caught off guard.
However, the white-haired female cultivator raised her delicate hand, unleashing a white frost aura from her palm, freezing all the talisman papers and hidden sword aura.
Clunk, clunk, clunk.
Chunks of ice fell from the sky, creating a series of sounds that shook Pei Daoyu’s mind and soul.
What kind of strange cultivation technique is this?
Unwilling to hide any longer, he threw two short knives into the air, which emitted dazzling light and transformed into two streams of light, heading straight for the white-haired female cultivator.
This pair of short knives was Second Grade Magical Artifacts, Pei Daoyu’s true trump card.
But the white-haired female cultivator merely raised her hand lightly, releasing a burst of frosty white mist, freezing the pair of knives mid-air.
Clatter, they fell to the ground.
Pei Daoyu immediately knelt: "Spare me, esteemed senior, spare me!"
The white-haired female cultivator stood before him, and if he looked up, he could see her long, slender, beautiful legs, delicate waist, and majestic figure, revealing a scenic beauty.
But Pei Daoyu dared not look up, could only repeatedly bow his head, nearly cracking the floor.
"Who killed Chang Chunzi?"
Her ethereal voice came, sending chills down Pei Daoyu’s spine, hesitating over what to answer.
Smack!
The white-haired female cultivator stepped on his hand, Pei Daoyu cried out in pain, a pill swiftly flew into his mouth, passing through his throat, entering his meridians, rapidly dissolving.
"This is the Heart-devouring Pill; as an alchemist, you should know its effects, right?"
The ethereal voice sounded again, Pei Daoyu felt a sharp pain in his meridians, uncontrollably rolling and screaming on the ground.
"I will ask you again, who killed Chang Chunzi?"
Pei Daoyu dared not conceal any longer: "It was Qin Gengyun, he resides in the room at the end of Narrow Rain Lane, right side. He has a wife and a concubine at home, I am willing to lead the way for you!"
"Concubine?"
The voice, akin to that of the Nine Heavens Profound Lady, paused, seeming to carry some emotion, stepping on Pei Daoyu’s other hand.
"Ah!!"
Pei Daoyu felt agony in his meridians, his hand crushed, akin to a fish flopping desperately on land.
He felt wronged, unable to understand where he erred, angering the esteemed senior so greatly.
The white-haired female cultivator asked again: "Who killed Chang Chunzi?"
Pei Daoyu hesitated, raising his sweaty face, seeming to realize: "I haven’t seen Chang Chunzi for days; why do you say he’s dead?"
This time he wasn’t stepped on again, the white-haired female cultivator continued to ask:
I heard Yunling Town has an alchemist who seems to have conflicts with Chang Chunzi?"
Pei Daoyu replied: "Esteemed senior, that alchemist does not know Chang Chunzi; I don’t understand what you mean by your words?"
The white-haired female cultivator looked down at him: "What is the surname, and where does this alchemist live?"
Pei Daoyu quickly said: "I truly don’t know, please forgive me, esteemed senior."
He understood that this senior was likely Qin Gengyun’s support, warning him against betraying Qin Gengyun.
He was contemplating when he looked up and found the white-haired female cultivator had disappeared.
He quickly cried out: "Esteemed senior, can you provide the antidote for the Heart-devouring Pill?" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
But the surroundings were quiet, indicating the senior had left.
Pei Daoyu showed a bitter face, sitting on the ground.
It’s over, he was doomed to be someone else’s puppet from now on.
What dreams of establishing a clan?
Deeply resentful, why did that plain-looking Qin Gengyun have such a powerful and beautiful female cultivator as his backing?
Was Qin Gengyun this female senior’s kept lover?
Damn, why him?
