Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Conspiracy (Part One)

Translator: 549690339

However…

Huang Qingling’s words inevitably made Lin Jing overthink.

The newly arrived Steward Zheng had visited the Liu Clan shortly after his arrival, and right after that, the examination incident occurred. And this examination was clearly directed at himself.

So, could it be possible.

That the examination was a conspiracy all along.

Its purpose was to make him fail the examination, forcing him to move out of the Inner Fang Market and thereby achieving their goals.

After all, the public order in the Outer Fang Market was much worse than that of the Inner Fang Market.

That was also the reason Lin Jing had sought to enter the Inner Fang Market. Although Lin Jing was not entirely sure, Steward Zheng was a prime suspect.

While Lin Jing was preparing to celebrate on his end. At this moment, inside a secret chamber in the Liu Clan compound, Liu Yiyuan was sitting cross-legged on a Cold Jade Bed.

At that moment, Liu Yiyuan looked haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and occasional wisps of dark energy flashed by, indicating he was not in great condition.

In front of him stood a person.

This person was the Wang-surnamed Pill Master.

Liu Yiyuan looked up at the Wang-surnamed Pill Master:

“How did the examination go?” he asked.

The Wang-surnamed Pill Master bowed his head, speaking cautiously:

“Young Master Liu, I did my best to disrupt him, but somehow he still passed the examination.”

After speaking, fearing that Liu Yiyuan wouldn’t believe him, The Wang-surnamed Pill Master quickly explained:

“His alchemy skills don’t seem as weak as the rumors suggest.”

“I feel that even if his alchemy skills are worse than mine, the difference wouldn’t be substantial.”

After listening to the Wang-surnamed Pill Master’s defense, Liu Yiyuan’s gaze filled with doubt.

He knew that this person had been a Second-Grade Alchemist for many years now; how could Lin Jing surpass him so quickly in alchemy?

Liu Yiyuan’s tone immediately took on an edge:

“Why couldn’t you influence him? Don’t you know how to cause an elixir furnace to explode?

“It’s a common occurrence for Alchemists’ furnaces to explode. If the furnace explodes, no matter who it is, they can be affected, right?”

‘Young Master Liu…”

To avoid any misunderstanding, the Wang-surnamed Pill Master quickly began to explain in his defense:

“I already used the method of causing the furnace to explode, and it indeed led to Lin Jing’s failure once.”

“Because of that, I received a warning from the new Steward Zheng.”

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask the others who were there. Many witnessed it with their own eyes, and for that, I almost got taught a lesson by another Offering Priest.”

“After all, Young Master Liu, you are also aware that as a Second-Grade Pill

Master, if I continue to cause explosions, anyone would notice the problem.”

After hearing the Wang-surnamed Pill Master’s defense, Liu Yiyuan fell silent.

Because many were present during the examination, the Wang-surnamed Pill Master couldn’t lie or deceive him.

Then there was only one possibility.

That is, Lin Jing still managed to successfully concoct Superior Elixir Medicine despite the disturbances.

If that was true, then it couldn’t be attributed to luck alone.

This conclusion left Liu Yiyuan silent for a long while.

Seeing that Liu Yiyuan was not reacting, the Wang-surnamed Pill Master quickly continued to ingratiate himself:

“Following Young Master Liu, I am not afraid of being expelled from Yuebaolou.”

“But…

“Didn’t you also ask me to inquire about Miss Qing Ling’s news? If I’m expelled

from Yuebaolou, it wouldn’t be easy to investigate.”

Only then did Liu Yiyuan come to his senses, and after taking a deep breath, he said:

“Alright, I understand.”

“You continue to stay in Yuebaolou, and report any situations to me immediately.”

“Yes…” the Wang-surnamed Pill Master bowed and said.

“Fine, you can go now…”

Liu Yiyuan felt a burst of irritation and waved his hand dismissively. However, the Wang-surnamed Pill Master did not leave.

“That… Young Master Liu…”

“What we had agreed on before…”

As he spoke, the pill master surnamed Wang stopped, not continuing further. Liu Yiyuan looked up and glanced at the pill master surnamed Wang, then said:

“The thing you mentioned…” “Once you go out later, just find the steward who brought you here.” “I have already instructed him…”

“Rest assured, you won’t lack benefits following me, Liu Yiyuan.”

“Thank you, Young Master Liu, ” the pill master surnamed Wang hurriedly bowed in thanks.

“Alright, you may leave now…” Liu Yiyuan waved his hand.

“Young Master Liu, I take my leave…”

Having said that, the pill master surnamed Wang turned around and left the place.

The successful concoction of Lin Jing’s elixir medicine greatly vexed him, invisibly increasing his malicious aura.

However, it was not suitable for him to show his frustration while he was with pill master Wang just now.

After all, the pill master surnamed Wang had just pledged allegiance to him, and there were many tasks that he would need him to perform in the future. Shortly after the pill master surnamed Wang had left,

Liu Yiyuan left the secret chamber and walked to the residence of Wu Cai Immortal in the inner courtyard of the Liu Clan. “Great Ancestor…”

Liu Yiyuan stood outside the door, bowing in respect.

“Come in.”

A moment later, a voice came from within the room, following which the door opened automatically.

Seeing this, Liu Yiyuan stepped in.

After Liu Yiyuan entered, the door closed automatically behind him.

He passed through the front hall to the inner room, where he saw Wu Cai Immortal sitting with closed eyes in meditation.

Then…

Liu Yiyuan cupped his hands together and respectfully paid his respects to Wu Cai Immortal:

“Great Ancestor.”

Wu Cai Immortal opened his eyes and saw Liu Yiyuan in this state.

After that, a dazzling light burst forth from his eyes.

This light scanned up and down Liu Yiyuan’s body.

It wasn’t long before the light faded away.

Wu Cai Immortal’s eyebrows shot up as he rebuked Liu Yiyuan:

“Did I not tell you to retreat and make a breakthrough?”

“How did you end up like this, a Heart Demon taking root, your meridians

obstructed, and not even a hint of advancement in your cultivation?”

“I’m sorry, Great Ancestor, I’ve disappointed you,” Liu Yiyuan quickly got down on his knees, prostrating before Wu Cai Immortal.

“I can’t seem to overcome this inner conflict.”

“Every time I cultivate, I keep thinking of the two of them holding hands, especially Lin Jing’s face, incessantly haunting my mind.” “Please, Great Ancestor, punish me.”

After saying this, Liu Yiyuan kowtowed resoundingly.

‘You…”

“Sigh…

Wu Cai Immortal was about to say something more, but seeing Liu Yiyuan like this, he was at a loss for words and could only sigh helplessly.

Previously, the entire Liu Clan doted on Liu Yiyuan greatly; whatever he desired, they would try to obtain it for him, having never let him suffer any grievances since he was a child.

This caused the present circumstances.

Just this one setback became the overwhelming Heart Demon in his mind.

At this moment, even Wu Cai Immortal was filled with regret.

After sighing, Wu Cai Immortal spoke:

“You, rise.”

Then, he stretched out a hand and directly lifted Liu Yiyuan into the air. “Regarding dealing with that Lin Jing, I have already taken care of it for you..”
