Chapter 396: Chapter 396: The First Valley Master

“What!”

“Fool’s talk in dreams!”

“Bullying to the extreme!”

The surviving elders, upon hearing this, were all greatly enraged.

Li Xiaoyao had not only killed eleven elders of Medicine God Valley and a gatekeeper steward, but now he was even boldly demanding that Medicine God Valley submit to him. Such a demand, let alone Medicine God Valley, would never be agreed to by any sect or family.

Wu Cheng’s face twisted in anger as he said, “Don’t push people too far!”

But Li Xiaoyao replied indifferently, “And what if I bully you? Whoever dares to resist, I will kill.”

“Are you going to kill all the disciples of Medicine God Valley? With that, Medicine God Valley would become an empty shell, of what use would it then be to you?”

Looking up, his gaze not at all obstructed by the billowing flames around him, Li Xiaoyao saw that the ground of Medicine God Valley was covered with herbs.

Li Xiaoyao suddenly sighed and shook his head, “Such a treasure land, yet you do not know how to utilize it. Even if I were to kill you all, what harm would that do to me? Only in my hands can this treasure land reveal its greatest value.”

“Hmph! In this world, my Medicine God Valley ranks second to none in cultivating Spirit Grass,” Wu Cheng laughed scornfully at Li Xiaoyao’s words, displaying extreme disdain.

With a wave of his hand, Li Xiaoyao caused the sea of fire to boil again, “I’ll give you ten more seconds to decide: submit or die?”

Time silently slipped by, and though the crowd was filled with rage, facing a person as overpoweringly strong as Li Xiaoyao, they had no third option.

Suddenly, the Second Elder whispered to the Valley Master, “Valley Master, why not agree to his demands for now, and as soon as he leaves, we can issue an order for his assassination.”

Wu Cheng’s eyes lit up; indeed, that was a good plan.

“Senior, we are willing to submit!” Wu Cheng spoke up, almost at the last second.

Their discussion did not escape Li Xiaoyao’s ears, but he had his ways to deal with their attempts to skirt around him.

Li Xiaoyao flicked his fingers, and a Pill Medicine flew out from his Storage Space, entering the sea of fire as everyone watched and melting in an instant. In a few seconds, a fragrant medicinal scent began to waft slowly in the space cordoned by the flames, entering the noses of all present.

“What is this smell? Such a strong scent of medicinal herbs.”

“So fragrant, this scent is mesmerizing.”

The voice of Li Xiaoyao gently rose, “What you just smelled is the Bone Corroding Pill, personally concocted by me.”

“What, Bone Corroding Pill!” The crowd was horrified, clearly aware of the pill’s vile reputation.

“That’s right,” Li Xiaoyao said. “Without taking the antidote within twelve chen, your bodies will turn into a puddle of thick water, bones and flesh included.”

The crowd angrily said, “How can you do this to us? We have already submitted; why do you still want to poison us?”

“Submit?” Li Xiaoyao sneered. “Let you go now, so you can issue an assassination order once I leave?”

Their stratagem laid bare by Li Xiaoyao, the crowd fell silent.

Wu Cheng’s aged face was filled with reluctance and resentment, but he ultimately sighed and said, “What do you really want?”

With a thought from Li Xiaoyao, the surrounding flames disappeared instantly, with those seeking medicines still not recovered from their shock.

“Medicinal materials that can heal the soul.” When Li Xiaoyao spoke these words, his heart was faintly fearful.

He feared that Medicine God Valley might not have the Herbal Ingredients he needed. If that were the case, the resurrection of Zhuo Yi would have to be postponed even further, something that Li Xiaoyao clearly did not wish to see.

“Heal souls?” Wu Cheng paused, then shook his head: “No, such Herbal Ingredients exist only in legends.”

Even though he was prepared to leave empty-handed before he came, getting this answer still made Li Xiaoyao feel an undeniable disappointment. Disappointment was followed by anger, which caused his emotions to become extremely unstable.

“Young Master, they’re lying.”

Nie Xiaoqian appeared at some point, floating beside Li Xiaoyao, and spoke softly.

“Lying?” Li Xiaoyao was startled, then quickly asked, “Miss Xiaoqian, do you know something?”

Xiaoqian shook her head then nodded, saying, “I can sense a very strong soul energy here, and this soul energy comes from within Medicine God Valley.”

The others couldn’t see Nie Xiaoqian and only saw Li Xiaoyao talking to the air, which terrified them, fearing that in his anger, he might kill them all.

“It seems that you do not cherish your lives.” Li Xiaoyao flicked his wrist, and the Seven Star Ancient Sword appeared in his palm, its sharp blade reflecting rays of cold light.

If it weren’t for Nie Xiaoqian, he would have been deceived by them today, and the thought that because of their deception Zhuo Yi might not be revived, the anger in Li Xiaoyao’s heart surged like a tide.

Seeing this, Wu Cheng’s heart panicked, and he hurriedly said, “Senior, what do you mean by this?”

“What do I mean?” Li Xiaoyao advanced with his sword, step by step, with a cold smirk that made Wu Cheng extremely nervous.

“I am giving you a chance. Does Medicine God Valley have any Herbal Ingredients that can heal souls?” Li Xiaoyao enunciated every word, his voice resonant.

Wu Cheng kept shaking his head: “No, absolutely not. Although Medicine God Valley is vast, I remember well what Herbal Ingredients we have, especially such rare ones.”

The murderous intent in Li Xiaoyao’s eyes surged, “No? You think I cannot feel that powerful soul force?”

Wu Cheng was taken aback, then hurriedly explained after realizing, “Senior has misunderstood me, that soul force is not from any Herbal Ingredients.”

“If it’s not from Herbal Ingredients, then what is it?”

“It is the soul of the first Valley Master of Medicine God Valley.” Wu Cheng’s face showed respect as he spoke, “The soul force the senior sensed should be from the resting place of the first Valley Master. These days, the fluctuations of the Valley Master’s soul have been getting stronger, so the senior might have been misled.”

“Lead the way.” Li Xiaoyao saw that Wu Cheng did not seem to be lying, so he put away the Ancient Sword and said.

“This way, senior.” Wu Cheng led the way, and before leaving, he said to an Elder, “Send those seeking medicine away, and announce that Medicine God Valley is closed for the day, not receiving anyone.”

Li Xiaoyao followed Wu Cheng into the depths of Medicine God Valley. Along the way, the birds chirped, and flowers bloomed beside the streams, truly a hidden paradise.

Especially the deeper they went, the denser the Spiritual Energy became. Through his thoughts, Li Xiaoyao could clearly sense that the core of the Spirit Gathering Array was located in the central area of Medicine God Valley.

This Spirit Gathering Array spanned dozens of miles, its extent so vast that it left Li Xiaoyao shocked.

The amount of Spirit Stones needed for such a massive Spirit Gathering Array was a terrifying figure.

The first Valley Master of Medicine God Valley was able to build the valley to this scale, he was undoubtedly no ordinary person.

After walking for roughly half an hour and traveling more than ten kilometers from the residential area, they finally stopped in front of a small hillock.@@novelbin@@

Pointing to the small hillock ahead, Wu Cheng said, “This is the burial place of the first Valley Master.”

Li Xiaoyao nodded, Approching the hillock, he could sense that the power of the soul was growing clearer.
