Chapter 61: Easy Marrow Pills Obtained!

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Near the Cui Family’s alchemy room, the atmosphere suddenly turned incredibly eerie.

Many martial artists glared at Lu Changsheng but dared not approach within ten zhang of the alchemy room.

Lu Changsheng stood outside the alchemy room with a sword, resembling a sculpture.

Both sides remained very quiet, causing the entire Cui Family to fall silent.

Time flowed by, hour after hour. Three hours, four hours, five hours…

More than three hours had passed, and daybreak was approaching, but neither side made any movements.

Inside the alchemy room, Li Hongzhuang had been searching for Easy Marrow Pills for over three hours. Iler eyes were bloodshot, and even her face was filled with anxiety.

Clearly, she hadn’t found the Easy Marrow Pills after all this time, which had put immense pressure on Li Hongzhuang.

After all, outside, “Thirteen” was single-handedly withstanding the entire assault from the Cui Family.

The alchemy room was spacious, but even after three hours, Li Hongzhuang had already searched it thoroughly.

Yet, she had still found nothing.

“Could it be that the Easy Marrow Pills aren’t in the alchemy room?”

“No, that’s impossible! Luo Tian is not one to lie or joke with his own life.”

“The Cui Family’s three elders wouldn’t have guarded the alchemy room for no reason. The Easy Marrow Pills must be in there.”

“Could there be hidden compartments or mechanisms?”

Li Hongzhuang had scrutinized every inch of the walls.

But she found no hidden compartments or mechanisms.

Finally, she turned her gaze to the alchemical furnace.

To refine elixirs, an alchemical furnace was needed, and the alchemy room housed a massive one.

Currently, flames still burned underneath the alchemical furnace.

Li Hongzhuang immediately gave it a light tap.

“Bang!”

The alchemical furnace was pushed open, releasing a wave of scorching heat.

The Easy Marrow Pills couldn’t be inside the alchemical furnace. Otherwise, with the furnace’s continuous heat, the Easy Marrow Pills would have turned to ashes.

“Wait, the alchemical furnace is so hot inside, but there’s no sense of heat outside.”

Li Hongzhuang’s eyes lit up.

The alchemical furnace was intensely hot inside, but there was no sensation of heat outside.

She began searching the alchemical furnace’s two “ears,” finally discovering a hidden mechanism. 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝑚

“Click!”

Inside the alchemical furnace’s two ears were mechanisms that concealed two porcelain vials.

The vials contained thirteen fragrant pills.

“Easy Marrow Pills!”

“The Cui Family didn’t even use a single Easy Marrow Pill?”

“The Cui Family, oh Cui Family, after ten years of painstaking effort, you’ve lost everything. Someone else is reaping the benefits.”

Li Hongzhuang was filled with delight.

She had harbored a deep-seated hatred for the Cui Family for a long time. Even though she couldn’t annihilate them now, denying them even a single Easy Marrow Pill was a severe blow to the Cui Family, which made Li Hongzhuang very happy.

“Thirteen!”

At this moment, Li Hongzhuang called out to the alchemy room from inside. “Hmm?”

Lu Changsheng, alone with his sword guarding the alchemy room, preventing the Cui Family’s people from approaching, heard Li Hongzhuang’s call.

Although Li Hongzhuang didn’t specify the reason, he could probably guess that she had most likely found the Easy Marrow Pills.

So, Lu Changsheng immediately turned and entered the alchemy room.

“Miss Li, did you find the Easy Marrow Pills?”

Lu Changsheng asked.

Li Hongzhuang’s eyes were bloodshot and she looked exhausted, but she couldn’t conceal her excitement in her gaze. She took out two porcelain vials and whispered, “I found the Easy Marrow Pills, a total of thirteen of them. Astonishingly, the Cui Family didn’t use a single Easy Marrow Pill.”

Lu Changsheng thought for a moment, realizing it might not be that the Cui Family didn’t want to use them but couldn’t. To use the Easy Marrow Pills, one must have mastered the Easy Marrow Secret Technique perfectly; otherwise, it would be a waste. If none of the Cui Family members had mastered the Easy Marrow Secret Technique perfectly, they would have no use for the Easy Marrow Pills, which ultimately benefitted Lu Changsheng and Li Hongzhuang. “One of these vials contains seven Easy Marrow Pills. Since you did most of the work, you should have an extra Easy Marrow Pill.”

Li Hongzhuang brought out one of the vials and handed it to Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng didn’t refuse. He opened the vial, took a sniff, and could identify some of the herbs in the Easy Marrow Pills. He then put the Easy Marrow Pills away with satisfaction.

“Thirteen, we need to leave quickly. The people from the Cui Family might go to Xuanjian Mountain Villa to fetch Elder Lu down. Once Elder Lu arrives at the Cui Family, we’ll be in trouble.”

Li Hongzhuang reminded.

Lu Changsheng nodded, but he went straight into the alchemy room.

“Li Hongzhuang, the people at home wouldn’t carry anything valuable on them.”

Lu Changsheng paused for a moment, realizing Li Hongzhuang’s point.

They were in the Cui Family, and there was no need to carry precious items on their person. Hence, he understood why there were hardly any items on the bodies of the Cui Family’s three elders.

In fact, these items were most likely left in the Cui Family. Nevertheless, more than three hours had passed now, and nobody knew when Elder Lu would come. Even though Lu Changsheng was confident, he wasn’t confident enough to contend with a Divine Power Realm martial artist.

“Let’s go!”

Lu Changsheng followed Li Hongzhuang and walked outside.

“Retreat!”

The Cui Family’s patriarch’s expression changed. He led his people to a far corner, watching helplessly as Lu Changsheng and Li Hongzhuang left. He didn’t dare provoke them further, even though he had been left with no other options.

Not until the two figures vanished into the night did the patriarch of the Cui Family enter the alchemy room alone.

Almost without hesitation, he walked to the alchemical furnace in the room and opened the mechanisms on the “ears” of the furnace.

“Click!”

The mechanisms opened, but the alchemical furnace’s “ears” were empty.

“All… That damn thief!”

The Cui Family’s patriarch was furious. This was the result of ten years of hard work by the Cui Family. They hadn’t even used a single Easy Marrow Pill, and now they had lost it all.

“Investigate!”

“You must find the identities of the two thieves for me, even if you have to turn every stone. Once Elder Lu comes down the mountain, we’ll round them up!” The Cui Family’s patriarch roared in anger.

However, deep down, he knew that since the two thieves had targeted the Easy Marrow Pills and had most likely obtained them, they would likely flee and escape. Trying to find them at this point would be almost impossible.

Even if Elder Lu came down, there was nothing he could do.

What’s more, he would have to face Elder Lu’s “questions.”

The Cui Family had kept the Easy Marrow Pill-making a secret, and they hadn’t informed Elder Lu. If he found out, it would be a big headache for the Cui Family’s patriarch.

“Master, this person can transform his blood into a sword, and he can release it up to ten zhang away. He single-handedly killed the three Cui Family elders; he should not be an unknown figure in the martial world. All we need to do is keep an eye on the martial world’s news, and we might learn his identity,” the Buddhist monk Kbu explained suddenly.

The Cui Family’s patriarch’s eyes lit up, and he nodded, saying, “Right, transforming blood into a sword and releasing it ten zhang away is no ordinary feat. Hmph, if we find out who he is, the Cui Family won’t let him go!” Subsequently, the Cui Family’s people began to clean up the scene.

The three Cui Family elders were dead, and even the Easy Marrow Pills were gone.

For the Cui Family, today was undoubtedly a massive blow. They would have to lick their wounds and wait for the opportunity to seek revenge..
