Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Ren Family

The man had been in Medicine God Valley for many years and had seen countless cultivators come to seek medicine, but which one of them was not respectful? Even those whose cultivation level was several times stronger than his, still spoke with an extremely respectful tone in his presence.

All this stemmed from the fact that he was part of Medicine God Valley.

As long as one came seeking medicine, no matter how impressive they were outside, once they were in Medicine God Valley, they were nothing. If they wanted to ask for medicine, they had to be prepared to beg humbly.

Regarding someone as arrogant as Li Xiaoyao, the man had seen a few, but such individuals often ended up being discovered by the elders in Medicine God Valley and then were directly slapped and sent flying out.

Li Xiaoyao looked at the man blocking his path with a whip in hand and said sternly, “Leave, unless you want to lose your life!”

“What arrogance,” the man was immediately provoked, and with a flick of his wrist, the whip lashed towards Li Xiaoyao’s face.

The extremely flexible whip, with a light flick in the air, made a cracking explosion, and it looked like it was about to hit Li Xiaoyao. But Li Xiaoyao lifted his right hand and firmly caught the whip, and then the man could no longer move it.

The man pulled hard, but the whip did not budge, and he shouted angrily, “Let go!”

Li Xiaoyao gave a cold smile, slightly exerted force with his hand, and the man immediately staggered a few steps towards Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao casually threw the whip onto the ground, just about to kill the man, when another man quickly ran up to stop him, “Brother, this is Medicine God Valley. If you hurt him, I’m afraid it won’t be easy for you to leave safely.”

“What do I have to fear from Medicine God Valley?” Li Xiaoyao’s words were filled with disdain.

The man gave him an odd look and said, “Brother, you must have come to seek medicine too, right? Since you are here for that, it’s better to follow the rules and avoid causing unnecessary trouble.”

Li Xiaoyao could tell that this man truly meant well, unlike the others who just stood far away watching, each with an expression of avoiding him by a mile, as if fearing any association with himself.

“I’ll spare your life then,” Li Xiaoyao withdrew his hand and concealed his killing intent.

The resentful gaze of the gatekeeping man glared at Li Xiaoyao, and he viciously dropped a sentence, “You dare to hurt me, if I don’t have you driven out of Medicine God Valley today, where will our valley’s reputation stand?”

After speaking, the gatekeeping man turned and entered Medicine God Valley, walking away quickly.

Li Xiaoyao wasn’t worried about this at all. What was there to fear from a mere gatekeeper?

“What is your name?” Li Xiaoyao looked at the man who had just intervened to stop him and asked.

The man extended his right hand, “Ren Li.”

“Li Xiaoyao.” Li Xiaoyao shook hands with him and asked, “Judging by your accent, you don’t seem to be from the inland?”

Ren Li nodded and said, “I’m from Zhu Island City. I’ve come here to seek immortal medicine for my grandfather.”

While they were talking, several young men and women walked by, glancing at Li Xiaoyao with utter contempt before saying, “Ren Li, how many times have I told you not to meddle in affairs that don’t concern you? We’re here to seek medicine. If we fail to obtain the immortal medicine because of you, can you bear the responsibility?”

Ren Li’s face turned slightly red, and in the end, he sighed and lowered his head, “I understand.”

The young woman hummed indifferently, glanced at Li Xiaoyao, and said faintly, “If you wish to offend Medicine God Valley, that’s your business. Don’t try to drag us down with you.”

“I’m sorry, Brother Li.” Ren Li said with an embarrassed smile, speaking in a low voice to Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao shook his head, he didn’t mind what the woman had said. Everyone has a natural tendency to seek good fortune and avoid disaster, and Li Xiaoyao could understand their behavior.

However, people with a character like Ren Li’s were indeed rare in society these days.

Inside and outside the Medicine God Valley, there was an enormous difference: although the scenery was beautiful outside the gates, it was only inside that one found a true paradise.

It was like two worlds separated, with small bridges over flowing water inside, blue skies and white clouds, a rich spiritual energy, and occasionally, one might catch glimpse of a demon beast or two. However, the demon beasts here were gentle by nature, posing no threat to humans.

“It’s said that Medicine God Valley is called ‘a human’s Immortal Realm,’ and seeing it today, it truly lives up to its reputation.”

The scenic beauty of Medicine God Valley attracted everyone; the fresh air was like a spring breeze, improving the mood of the people who had been waiting outside for many days.

Yet, before they had enjoyed the beautiful scenery for long, an aged voice brought everyone back to reality.

“Who dares to be presumptuous in my Medicine God Valley?”

Two figures came rushing from afar at high speed, arriving in a moment. One of them was the gatekeeper who had been robbed of his whip by Li Xiaoyao, who had wanted to teach him a lesson. The other was a white-haired man, dressed in a long robe, appearing dignified and Daoist.

The elder exuded an impressive aura; his every move was accompanied by a powerful aura, forcing everyone to breathe carefully.

The gatekeeper pointed at Li Xiaoyao and said, “Elder Zhang, it’s this brat. He spoke wildly, saying that Medicine God Valley was nothing special, and even claimed he would flatten our Medicine God Valley.”

Upon hearing this, everyone understood that the gatekeeper had come for revenge against Li Xiaoyao.

Indeed, a petty person seeks revenge for the slightest grievance; on the one hand, everyone was secretly relieved that they hadn’t offended him, while on the other hand, they felt pity for Li Xiaoyao.

What a poor fellow, a matter that could have been resolved with money had to turn unpleasant for both parties.

Elder Zhang, named Zhang Fu, was one of the Medicine God Valley’s eleven Elders. At this moment, upon learning of Li Xiaoyao’s arrogance, he could not help but snort disdainfully and said, “Boy, do you know where you are? How dare you make such wild statements!”

Not a single person stepped forward to testify for Li Xiaoyao; they didn’t want to offend Medicine God Valley over a man they didn’t know, as it would bring them no benefit.

“To think someone with your intelligence could become an Elder of Medicine God Valley?” Li Xiaoyao shook his head in contempt and said, “So what if I said it, so what if I didn’t? I came here today to get medicine, not to cause slaughter. Have your Valley Master come see me.”

Seeing that Li Xiaoyao did not deny it, the gatekeeper breathed a sigh of relief but then heard the latter part of his statement, and his heart sneered immediately. This kid really didn’t know whether he was alive or dead.

“How audacious!” Zhang Fu’s eyes widened with anger, and he yelled, “It seems that Medicine God Valley has been too quiet for too long, allowing even a brat like you to run wild and act arrogantly here. If I don’t teach you a lesson today, where would the face of Medicine God Valley be?”

Zhang Fu struck out towards Li Xiaoyao with a palm, the terrifying aura turning the complexions of the crowd pale.

“This elder’s cultivation level is terrifying, having reached the Spirit Cultivation Realm. Such a terrifying aura is something even the Offering of our clan has never witnessed.” Those who were aware of Medicine God Valley and had come seeking its medicines were from major families, not unfamiliar with cultivators. Feeling the aura emanating from Zhang Fu, they couldn’t help but be astonished.
