Ch522 - Xiao Feifei's Cause of Death

At night, Liu Mufeng and his group gathered in the cave to chat together.

“Mufeng, I have installed an eight level protective barrier outside the cave, which is safer.” Jiang Xu smiled as he looked at his man. This time they came to the secret realm, they were well prepared, having stocked eighth and ninth level arrays.

“Very good, there are many people here with ill intentions, making a formation safer is more guaranteed.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng agreed.

“Mufeng, you and Xuanxuan walked around the yard. Did you find anything? Are those lotus flowers and red flowers poisonous?” Jiang Xu immediately asked.

Liu Mufeng smiled, looking towards his own son. “Let Xuanxuan speak.”

“Dad, Father and I have checked and found that the lotus in the lotus pond is made of golden green lotus, which is used for ornamental purposes. Ordinary plants have no toxicity or medicinal value. The red flowers planted in the corner are also ornamental flowers, which have no toxicity or medicinal value. Both plants may not appear toxic individually, but their fragrances mixed together are extremely toxic. This kind of poison can cause death to people. The poison in that yard is even more severe than before.” Liu Xuan couldn’t help but frown.

“So, what should we do? Do you Father and Son have a way to detoxify?” Jiang Xu asked helplessly as he looked at his Husband and Son.

“Don’t worry, it’s just an ordinary poison. Xuanxuan and I can detoxify it.” Liu Mufeng smiled and said nonchalantly.

“Oh, that’s good, that’s good.” Jiang Xu said in a relieved manner.

“Father, there is something this Son doesn’t understand.” Liu Xuan looked at his Father with a puzzled expression on his face.

“What’s the matter?” Liu Mufeng lowered his head and took a sip of tea, looking at his Son.

“Father, didn’t you say ‘survival of the fittest’? Then why would someone still die when half of the people in a Palace had already died and the Palace gates had been opened?” Liu Xuan asked in confusion.

Upon hearing Liu Xuan’s question, Jiang Xu nodded. “En, why was that Feifei killed by an array?”

“EnMufeng, I don’t understand what’s going on.” Shi Lian also said she couldn’t figure it out.

“Father, is this related to Xiao Feifei’s death?” Liu Xuan looked at his father with a puzzled expression on his face.

“Yeah, it doesn’t seem to matter?” Jiang Xu also felt that this matter had nothing to do with Xiao Feifei’s death.

Looking at the bewildered Father and Son, Liu Mufeng smiled. “It’s related. In fact, many alchemists are respected and sought after by people all year round, and they have a feeling in their hearts that everything is inferior and only alchemy is the top. Of course, Xuanxuan and I don’t have this kind of attitude. But Master does. Master has a Daoist spirit, and the first time you see this person, you will think he is a very capable and noble person who is not easy to approach. When I was apprenticed, Master also said to me many times, asking me not to be two-three minded and focused on alchemy. It is not difficult to see from Master’s words and actions that he also has the plot of an alchemist, feeling that no one else can compare to an alchemist.”

“Indeed, Grandpa does have a bit of an Alchemy Master’s arrogance, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling. In fact, Grandpa himself is not that kind of person.” Liu Xuan smiled at this.

“Mufeng, aren’t you getting too far off topic?” Jiang Xu said helplessly as he looked at his man.

“No, actually it’s related. What I want to say is that this Sacred Alchemist also has this kind of alchemist character. Therefore, he naturally believes that the Leader of the Sea God Order must be the alchemist, and the people who follow the Leader must be servants. Survival of the fittest, the gift he prepared to give to the winner is for the alchemist, not for the servants.” Looking at the crowd, Liu Mufeng said.

“That is to say, in the eyes of this alchemist, you are the alchemist and the Commander-in-Chief. We came with you, and we are all your servants. We cannot walk in front of you, nor do we have the right to get the mahagony box?” Jiang Xu asked as he looked at his own man.

“Yes, that’s what he thinks.” Liu Mufeng nodded in agreement.

“Therefore, Xiao Feifei, the servant, walked in front of the Leader Xiao Yi. Not only did she not receive the box, but she was also split to death.” Thinking of this, Liu Xuan shook his head helplessly and said to himself,“The plot of this sacred alchemist is too heavy.”.

“Yes, in ancient times, the hierarchical system was very strict, and it was disrespectful for servants to walk in front of their Masters — they would be executed,” Liu Mufeng nodded.

Upon hearing this, Shi Lian nodded slightly. “Yes it’s like this, our Stone Clan’s hierarchical system was also very strict. Clan members who made mistakes would be executed.”

“Surprisingly, that stinky girl from the Xiao family died quite unjustly, but she was too arrogant, and she deserved to die.” Jin Xiao looked contemptuous at this.

“Yeah, who made her walk so fast to the front of the Leader?” Nodding, Xiaoxiao also felt that the girl’s death was not worth pitying.

“This mahogany box is the stage of ‘survival of the fittest’ and the opportunity for the winner. When I saw Xiao Feifei die, I guessed that the Master should have walked out of the Palace first, and I also guessed that the winner might have a gift, but I didn’t expect there to actually be a gift.” Liu Mufeng took out the mahogany box and opened it for everyone to see.

Looking at the glittering Golden Beads in the box, everyone was shocked.

“Mufeng, what is this? It looks so beautiful and has a strong spiritual energy!”

“This is the Golden Immortal Beads, which is very suitable for gold cultivators to use. Here you are, don’t use it for now. Wait until we find other opportunities, and then you can go into seclusion and advance to level nine.” Advancing to level nine was a big deal, so Liu Mufeng didn’t want his lover to seclude too early. He wanted to find at least two more suitable opportunities, prepare some pills for his wife, and then let him go into seclusion.

“En.”Jiang Xu nodded happily and put away the mahogany box.

“IfXiaoXu advances to level nine, then our family will have three level nine cultivators.” Shi Lian was very happy when she said this.

“This place is quite unique, I’m afraidXiaoXu won’t be able to attract lightning strikes of advancement.” Thinking of this, Bai Hu couldn’t help but frown.

“En, we’re currently in the deep sea and there’s a formation outside, so we probably won’t be able to trigger a lightning tribulation.” Thinking of this, Jiang Xu felt very frustrated.

Reaching out, Liu Mufeng smiled and grabbed his wife’s hand. “It’s okay, just cultivate as you want. Don’t think too much, we’ll have to leave this place sooner or later. It’s the same if we leave and then accept the lightning tribulation.”

“En, that’s true.” After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xu agreed.

“Father, is it only the Leader who can participate in the alchemy competition in a hundred years?” Thinking of this, Liu Xuan couldn’t help but frown.

Liu Mufeng smiled. “Don’t worry, there are still a hundred years left. If you want to participate in the competition, we can get another Sea God Token. However, before the competition, the Sea God Token must be placed with me. If it is placed with you, then we will become competitors of the ‘survival of the fittest’.”

Upon hearing his Father’s words, Liu Xuan smiled. “Yes Father, this Child understands.”

*****

In the main hall, the Yu family.

“Uncle, there are already twenty people in this courtyard now, the Palace gate has been closed, and the mechanisms in this Palace have been activated.” Yu Qing’er reminded as she looked at Yu Shan.

“Yes, Uncle. It’s better to start first than to encounter later.” They had previously broken through a Palace where mechanisms were everywhere. It took them a lot of effort to kill the other competitors in that palace, and they got the chance to come to this Palace.

“Except for the Ma family in the Eastside hall, the other ten people in our yard are not a concern at first. We can cooperate with the Ma family to kill the other ten people, and then kill the Ma family to obtain the resources of the winner.” After thinking for a moment, Yu Shan came up with a solution.

“Big Brother is still clever.” Upon hearing Yu Shan’s words, Yu Tian repeatedly agreed.

“The previous Palace was filled with ambushes everywhere, I don’t know what might be inside this Palace. Unfortunately, this Sea God Palace only opens once every 100 million years. The old Masters who came last time either fell long ago or went to the Middle and Upper Heavenly Domains. We don’t have any clues.” Cao An sighed. The other secret realms had guidance from the family Elders and some maps, but this one had no clues, even from the News Pavilion. They were going in blind, knowing nothing, they could only rely on themselves to explore.

“En, there’s no clue at all.” Speaking of this, Yu Qing’er was also very depressed.

“The only clue from the News Pavilion is that this Master was quite revered, and the number of casualties in this secret realm is very high, with 1500 cultivators each time, and no more than 100 surviving. So far, no one knows what the title of this Sacred Alchemist is, nor does anyone know how to obtain his inheritance and this Palace.” Yu Shan sighed.

“Don’t be so disappointed, no news is also good news. What we don’t know as the Yu family; other families, sects, and scattered cultivators naturally don’t know either. Since no one knows, then we can only rely on our abilities and luck.” Speaking of this, Yu Tian smiled.

Upon hearing these words, everyone felt somewhat comforted.
