Primordial Cultivator

"Senior Fan Ping, is he still useful now?" Yang Wei asked as he glanced at the lifeless corpse of Elder Chen Xue.

For the making of Blood Lingzhi, one must require an abundant amount of blood to feed the normal Lingzhi.

Now that Elder Chen Xue is dead, the chance of getting blood from him is next to zero.

Fan Ping pondered for a moment before nodding his head.

"Although he can't be used to feed the Lingzhi in the normal way, he could be a great fertilizer to amplify the effect of the Blood Linzhi." Fan Ping said.

"Fertilizer?" Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, Elder Chen Xue's cultivation base is high enough. The lingering spiritual qi in his body could help support the Lingzhi." Fan Ping explained.

"I see… it's a good thing that he died then," Yang Wei mumbled.

He would never feel sorry for his enemy since being kind to an enemy is akin to being ruthless to oneself.

Sometime later, Fan Ping stored the lifeless corpse of Elder Chen Xue into the Pagoda.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei's vision soon focused on the other prisoners.

Or in Yang Wei's eyes, it should be fellow disciples from multiple sects.

"Y-Yang Wei, p-please release us."

"Yeah, unlike Elder Chen Xue who held a killing intent toward you, we held zero nefarious intent toward you."

"W-We were being manipulated by the profound aura and demeanor of Elder Chen Xue. We never wanted to target you to begin with."

The disciples there began crying aloud and pleading for mercy from Yang Wei.

Since Elder Chen Xue was now a dead man, they didn't feel an ounce of guilt in their heart. Instead, they decided to shift all the blame to Elder Chen Xue as long as they could save their own life.

Yang Wei sneered silently as these were the types of people he hated in his life.

'The cultivation world is indeed different from Earth. No- it should be somewhat similar in terms of human behavior.' He thought.

"What are you going to do with these people?" Fan Ping asked as he floated over.

"What else can we do? You didn't offer a precious item to Qian Xurong for a simple release right?" Yang Wei said.

Fan Ping nodded his head.

"Very well then. All shall be our loyal contributor to the making of the Blood Lingzhi," He then said as he flicked his hand.

The disciples could feel a strong pressure pulling them closer to something and whatever it was, they knew it was anything but great.

With one last struggle, they tried to plead Yang Wei in their most sincere tone.

"Yang Wei, please let me go. I know a secret about the truth of Elder Chen Xue's motive of joining our expedition against Tang Xin." A disciple said in a panic.

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.

"Truth about his motive?" Yang Wei snorted coldly as he gave him a low kick in the stomach.

"If you mean that his true motive in joining the expedition was to kill me then you're out of luck."

The disciple groaned in pain for a moment as he slowly crawled toward Yang Wei.

"I-I didn't mean that kind of truth, S-Senior Yang Wei. E-Elder Chen Xue's voice wasn't low when he answered your question."

"You have approximately 3 seconds to speak your words. Otherwise, Fan Ping would gladly drag you somewhere cozy, just like the rest of your companions." Yang Wei said.

The disciple nodded his head vigorously.

"W-When I was trying to find a place to go take a piss, I overheard Elder Chen Xue communicating through a talisman."

"The communication talisman is most probably for Meng Pao. After all, he wanted me dead so it's obvious that he would be asking for the progress and if I died yet." Yang Wei scoffed as his patience has reached the limit.

Yang Wei then turned around as he lost interest in the disciple's final word of struggle.

Although it may seem like the disciple has some sort of secret at hand, Yang Wei could tell it was all a lie.

A lie that he spewed at the last seconds just so he could save his pathetic life.

"Next time, if you're going to lie. Make sure to control your emotions inside your body well." Yang Wei smirked as he bid goodbye to the disciple.

The disciple's face turned ashen white as he tried to claw his nail through the ground to prevent the force from dragging him away,

Alas, it was a futile effort when Fan Ping simply exuded a bit more pressure to send him to the Pagoda.

Sometime later, Fan Ping glanced at Yang Wei with a confused look.

"How did you know that little shit was lying to you?" He asked.

Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders.

"Who knows? Maybe it's just a hunch from me." Yang Wei said as he brushed it off.

Fan Ping twitched his mouth slightly at his response.

"Just say you don't want to tell me. Why waste my time with some nonsense response." He added.

Yang Wei laughed as he walked toward the red carpet to give his final thanks to Qian Xurong.

'Heh, Zhu Wenqian's advice does come in handy sometimes on how to detect lies. Such an amazing trick cannot be spread. Otherwise, I feared it would be hard to know the difference between the truth and lies.'

After walking for a while, Yang Wei stood before the still mesmerized Qian Xurong.

Despite the loud chattering and events that went through, her focus was still on the box-looking item that Fan Ping had offered.

"Y-Your Majesty, thanks for releasing the prisoners to us." Yang Wei said as he cupped his fist.

Qian Xurong merely nodded her head slightly.

"Shoo, leave me alone already. Fang Xifeng, go and escort the guest out. Make sure they never come back here ever again." Qian Xurong said.

Fang Xifeng who had been standing on the sideline quickly knelt down on one knee.

"Understood, Your Majesty." Fang Xifeng said with the utmost respect.

Afterward, she glanced at Yang Wei with a disgusted look.

"Follow me and make sure not to wander around aimlessly." She snorted and proceeded to walk toward the door.

Yang Wei ignored her rowdy behavior as he followed behind her.

It was about time for him to leave the Killer Bees' nest that was filled with bloody honeycomb in every corner.

Sometime later, Fang Xifeng brought Yang Wei outside the Killer Bees' nest entrance.

"Leave and never come back here." Fang Xifeng shouted angrily.

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.

"Did you have to be that harsh? A woman with a rowdy and angry expression usually gets more wrinkles on her face than others." Yang Wei said.

Fang Xifeng's face paled as she quickly touched her soft and delicate face.

Feeling the smooth texture, she breathed a sigh of relief before glaring at Yang Wei.

"Who did you say will have wrinkles? My face is smooth and flawless." She shouted.

However, Yang Wei shook his head.

"How can you call your face smooth and flawless when there's a big pimple on your face?" Yang Wei said as he narrowed his eyes.

He then walked closer to her and inspected her face closer.

"That pimple over there is really blocking that beauty of yours. Such a shame…" he added.

Fang Xifeng panicked in horror as she tried to look for some water to see the reflection of her face.

"I-Impossible… I have always eaten the product created by the Killer Bees, and they are extremely nutritious and beneficial to our health. H-How can there be a pimple in my face?"

"Sigh, sometimes, the most nutritious food may not be enough to block off the horrendous and vicious pimple from appearing." Yang Wei sighed as he patted her shoulder lightly.

Fang Xifeng ignored the touch from Yang Wei as she quickly snatched his hand.

"Where is that pimple located in my face? How come I can't feel anything bumpy in my face?" She asked in a panicked tone.

"No can do, Fang Xifeng." Yang Wei refused to point it out for her.

"Someone just told me to leave and never come back again. Hence, I don't have time to bother with something as trivial as pointing out a pimple." He added.

Fang Xifeng gnashed her teeth in anger.

"Who told you to leave and never come back?" She shouted. "Hurry up and point it out for me so that I can fix it."

"Hmm…. but those words are from an authoritative person. I can't just ignore it and go against her words. My head would be rolling down on the ground if I tried to do so."

"Enough, Yang Wei. I'll take my words back, ok?" Fang Xifeng then clenched his hand tightly. "Now tell me, where is that stupid pimple located in?"

Yang Wei nodded his head.

"The pimple is right here," Yang Wei said as he pointed at Fang Xifeng's mouth.

"That pimple was very annoying until just a moment ago when she took her words back."
