The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 628: Chapter 628: No Way Out

“Very well! Very well! All of you want to stand as my enemy.” Zhou Yishui sneered, his eyes exceptionally sharp as he scanned the crowd.

“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter! Someone snatched the sacred medicine right under your nose. If I were you, I would hide in a crevice, hahaha, too hilarious!” Wong Erdan’s mocking voice rang out.

Zhou Yishui’s face turned ugly, his eyes glaring menacingly at Wang Erdan, wanting nothing more than to decapitate this youngster.

“If not for you meddling, would the sacred medicine fall into others’ hands!” Zhou Yishui spat out between gritted teeth.

Wang Erdan scoffed, a mocking grin on his face, “Of course I would stop you. I’d rather others get the sacred medicine than you. Besides, I have no interest in the sacred medicine. It makes no difference to me if it’s gone. But it’s not the same for you, isn’t it? Your heart must be raging.”

Zhou Yishui was indeed raging beyond words. Words are insufficient to describe his frustration and anger at this moment, which is why he even wanted to vent his anger by killing Dugu Nian.

Dugu Ruoxu helped Dugu Nian up, feeding her several healing pills, resulting in her complexion looking a bit better.

Mei Yingxue also walked over to Steward Shen, handing him a bottle of pills. Steward Shen thanked her. After consuming the pills, he followed the Heavenly Fragrance Valley group.

Zhou Yishui coldly glanced at Dugu Ruoxu and Mei Yingxue, didn’t say a word, retracted his spirit body, and turned to leave.

No one had expected that the fierce battle for the sacred medicine would end up being successful by Fang Lin.

Poor Zhou Yishui and the others fought a massive battle, shaking heaven and earth, but ended up being a bridal suite for Fang Lin.

Many people felt that Fang Lin was lucky, but Mei Yingxue, Chi Yunxiao, and others didn’t consider this luck.

Being able to lay low for such a long time, waiting for the last opportunity, making a decisive move and fighting at the cost of serious injuries, almost to the point of death, to finally snatch the sacred medicine.

Such courage, such ability, not everyone possesses.

Of course, for Mei Yingxue and the others, the fact that the sacred medicine was taken by Fang Lin did make them a bit uncomfortable. However, if the sacred medicine had been snatched by Zhou Yishui, they would feel even more uncomfortable.

Dugu Nian and Steward Shen were both unscathed. Although their injuries were severe, there was no risk to their lives. Their conditions stabilized after consuming the healing pills.

Dugu Nian naturally returned to her Dugu Family, while Steward Shen followed Heavenly Fragrance Valley.

Heavenly Fragrance Valley was also an Alchemy Tao sect, and Mei Yingxue herself was a Pill Refiner and had a good relationship with the Pill Alliance.

For these reasons, Mei Yingxue saved Steward Shen; if it were someone else, they probably wouldn’t have bothered.

In short, the noisy ancient battlefield soon quieted down, leaving behind only a large number of corpses as evidence of the fierce battle that had taken place here.

····

Inside a cave, Fang Lin’s figure suddenly appeared. He fell to the ground, continuously spitting out blood, his face pale and his energy drained.

However, his body was enveloped in a seven-colored light, giving off a mystical vibe.

Fang Lin’s condition was extremely strange at the moment. He had been severely injured by Zhou Yishui and was on the verge of death.

But the presence of the sacred medicine allowed Fang Lin’s life to continue, although his injuries did not improve, and he was still in grave condition.

Complex emotions crossed Fang Lin’s face. He didn’t care about his injuries as much as he worried about Dugu Nian and Steward Shen.

Before the plan to snatch the sacred medicine was carried out, Dugu Nian told Fang Lin that she had three Broken Space Talismans, which could be used for escaping.

But unexpectedly, Dugu Nian lied. She only had one Broken Space Talisman, her own life-saving item, but she used it on Fang Lin.

Fang Lin felt guilty. If Dugu Nian and Steward Shen were hurt because of him, even if he obtained the sacred medicine and his strength greatly increased, he would always feel guilty.

He then took a few healing pills. His breathing became a little steadier, and he wasn’t coughing up blood like before.

“So, you’re here. It was quite a hassle to find you.” Just then, a playful laughter rang out. Fang Lin’s face darkened, and his heart sank.

A provocative figure appeared in the cave and slowly approached Fang Lin.

Seeing this person, Fang Lin’s face turned extremely solemn.

Dream Falling Flower, Prince’s confidant, and an assassin from Hidden Kill Hall, showed up in front of Fang Lin with a mocking smile on her face.

However, Dream Falling Flower’s condition wasn’t great either. One of her arms had turned black, and it even began to decay, yet it didn’t spread to the rest of her body.

Seeing Dream Falling Flower’s arm, Fang Lin asked in surprise, “You managed to find me?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Dream Falling Flower gave a charming laugh, seeming to be in a terrific mood, “You left your mark on me, naturally, I also left one on you. However, I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless as to poison me.”

Fang Lin sneered coldly, “What a pity, the poison didn’t kill you.”

Indeed, Dream Falling Flower’s arm had turned that way, and it was all thanks to Fang Lin. When Dream Falling Flower had revealed the location of the sacred medicine to Fang Lin, he attacked her. Although he was repelled, he managed to poison Dream Falling Flower’s hand.

Similarly, Dream Falling Flower used their exchange to leave a mark on Fang Lin. And because of this mark, she was able to find him here.

“Your poison is indeed potent. If it wasn’t for me suppressing the poison, my body would’ve decomposed by now.” Dream Falling Flower affectionately laughed, though her smile was cold.

Fang Lin looked at her, “So, what now? The sacred medicine has been consumed by me, even if you kill me, you won’t obtain the sacred medicine.”

Dream Falling Flower’s lips curled up, “Even if you consumed the sacred medicine, it can still be dug out of you.”

“You are indeed ruthless.” Fang Lin chuckled coldly.

Dream Falling Flower shook her head, “You are destined to die. Provoking Hidden Kill Hall leaves you only one path—death. I allowed you to live for this long, you should thank me.”

“Thank your whole damn family!” Fang Lin cursed, while secretly trying to assimilate the power of the sacred medicine in his body, hoping to recover as much as possible.

However, his injuries were too severe, and he wasn’t able to recover much in a short period. Even if he had recovered, his abilities were far weaker than Dream Falling Flower’s. He was no match for her.

At the moment, it seemed like Fang Lin was facing a desperate situation. With his severe injuries, he had met an enemy who wanted to kill him. Would there be a way for him to survive?

“Don’t worry. I’m always quick and painless when I kill people. Hell, I don’t mind letting you enjoy yourself before you die, as long as your body can still take it.” Dream Falling Flower laughingly flirted.

With a straight face, Fang Lin said, “Do you think you’ve got me all figured out?”
