Chapter 686: Scam

After Princess Hongxiao left, Ye Chunyang casually put the invitation aside, then cast a spell to create a phantom body to take care of the shop, and the real body entered the cave in the backyard to meditate and practice.

With his current realm, he naturally looked down on the transactions between low-level cultivators, so he didn't take Princess Hongxiao's invitation too seriously. He just needed to go with her in three days to inquire about some information.

After returning to Dongzhou, he always wanted to practice the pill casting method as soon as possible, looking for an opportunity to form a pill as soon as possible, and return to the world of immortal cultivation to inquire about the whereabouts of his main body.

Back then, the main body was taken away by Tianxie Demon Lord, and Ye Chunyang was forced to teleport to the Chaos Demon Realm. Now that he has returned, he naturally wants to find a way to take it back.

Due to the limited space, Ye Chunyang's mortal cave is not big. There is only a medicinal field and three pet rooms. The rest are secret rooms used for cultivation in the past. Under the protection of the magic circle, even if there are cultivators nearby, they cannot discover the secrets here.

After entering the cave, he first went to the rooms of Xiaoqing and Pixiu to check. He saw that the two beasts were glowing slightly, and their auras were sometimes strong and sometimes weak, which was very strange.

Ye Chunyang urged the soul-refining technique to release his consciousness. The two remained motionless except for some conscious responses, but Ye Chunyang was not surprised by this. After a while, he walked to the next pet room.

Probably because they absorbed too much yin and demonic energy in Penglai Island, the mutant blue bird and Pixiu have been quietly dormant for most of the past six months. Judging from their auras, they may have reached the bottleneck of advancement. What they need most at this time is absorption and refining. Ye Chunyang will naturally not interfere with them.

The third pet room is raising demon-eating Gu. When he was in Penglai Island, he was worried about the safety of "Yu Wanqing", so Ye Chunyang lent the group of Gu to the other party for self-defense. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Mr. Yunshu. Fortunately, Ye Chunyang took the opportunity to take it back.

Unlike Xiaoqing and Pixiu, the group of Gu are very active under the leadership of the mother Gu. Just yesterday, Ye Chunyang took advantage of the recovery of his mana at midnight to refine a furnace of Nurturing Spirit Pills and threw them here, but now nearly half of them have been devoured.

"It seems that if I don't refine more pills, I can't satisfy you big eaters."

Seeing this scene, Ye Chunyang was stunned for a while and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Since the mother Gu aged, Ye Chunyang found that although the demon-eating Gu has amazing magical powers, it needs to maintain sufficient vitality, otherwise it will easily age. The only way to maintain it is to let it continue to devour Nurturing Spirit Pills or some spiritual beasts with Taoism.

However, due to the limitations of the skills, Ye Chunyang is temporarily unable to find spiritual beasts for the demon-eating Gu. He can only refine some Nurturing Spirit Pills to feed them temporarily during the recovery of his mana.

But each time the mana is restored, it can only last for half an hour, and the number of pills Ye Chunyang can refine is not as much as before. He can only barely feed these demon-eating Gu on a daily basis, but it is not enough to keep their vitality.

This is another helpless point after he practiced the pill casting method.

Fortunately, these demon-eating Gu are not greedy. Judging from the remaining soul-raising pills, they can still feed for one or two days. By then, a batch of spiritual herbs that Ye Chunyang has recently matured can be picked to make pills.

After thinking this way, Ye Chunyang put his mind at ease, closed the pet room and walked towards his secret room.

"Since I can't get any clues about the mysterious cold air from Concubine Lu, I can only recast the Dantian according to the pill casting method. However... I will go to the treasure appraisal conference with Princess Hong Xiao in three days. Maybe I can try to inquire about it. Maybe someone with information knows the whereabouts of the mysterious cold air."

After sitting quietly in the room, Ye Chunyang tapped the table with two fingers, and his face showed a thoughtful look.

Although the cultivators that Princess Hong Xiao would come into contact with would not be too high-level with her cultivation, there are many strange people in the world, and there are many low-level cultivators who hold secret information. Since she promised to go with this woman, she might as well take a look.

With a plan in mind, Ye Chunyang stopped thinking and closed his eyes to start practicing the pill casting method.

Under the internal examination of his spiritual consciousness, the situation in his body was clearly reflected in his mind. At this time, golden light was swirling like gossamer, more dazzling than before, and the dantian also showed obvious signs of expansion. Seeing this scene, Ye Chunyang was naturally overjoyed. Judging from this situation, he was probably not far from the great success of the pill casting method.

With obvious results, Ye Chunyang was more motivated. He ignored the pain of the meridians of the pill casting method and practiced it over and over again.

…

When Ye Chunyang woke up again, it was already night.

Perhaps because it was near the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon tonight was particularly round, with stars dotted in the sky, surrounding the bright moon. I am afraid that the artistic conception in the painting was not as beautiful as its beauty.

Ye Chunyang pushed open the door, looked up at the night, and left the cave without saying a word, and went straight to the shop.

When he woke up just now, he happened to find some fluctuations coming from his phantom body. It seemed that someone came to see him while he was in seclusion. Now that he had finished his practice and it was still early, it would be okay to go out and take a look.

After walking to the front desk and removing the phantom body, Ye Chunyang released his spiritual sense to sense it slightly, but he was secretly a little surprised.

During his practice, Chunyangju seemed to have good business. In just half a day, he had received hundreds of taels of silver, and a lot of medicinal materials in stock were sold.

After thinking for a while, Ye Chunyang opened the cash box, took out all the loose silver, then closed the shop and walked to somewhere outside the city.

The money and silver in the secular world are useless to him as a cultivator. Every night after Chunyangju closed, he would take all the daily income to the disaster area outside the city to distribute to some suffering people.

Although this could not change anything, and Ye Chunyang had never thought about changing it, doing good deeds in the mortal world was also a merit, and it was something he had to do every day in his transformation into a mortal.

Therefore, the name of "Doctor Ye" became more and more famous in Yuanzhou.

About three hours later, he returned from outside the city. When he was walking slowly to appreciate the night view of the mortal world, a figure stumbled in front of him and almost bumped into him.

Ye Chunyang glanced at this person and wanted to bypass him and continue to move forward. The other party suddenly blocked him and looked at him hopefully, saying: "Excuse me, are you Doctor Ye of Chunyangju?"

"I am." Ye Chunyang nodded expressionlessly.

The person who blocked the road was a ragged young man with stains all over his face, looking very embarrassed. After hearing him admit his identity, he was immediately delighted and said, "Doctor Ye, it is indeed you. I went to Chunyang Residence to look for you just now but couldn't find you. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Ye Chunyang's eyes flashed a hint of obscurity, but his face was calm and he said, "What do you want to see me for?"

As soon as he asked, the young man suddenly knelt down in front of him with a pleading look on his face, saying, "It is said that Doctor Ye is a kind-hearted doctor and has the ability to bring people back to health. My father is in critical condition at the moment, I beg Doctor Ye to help him!"

Ye Chunyang looked at the boy's actions, frowned slightly, and said: "Where is your home?"

Hearing that Ye Chunyang seemed to agree, the boy hurriedly said: "My family lives outside the city."

Ye Chunyang did not speak after hearing this, and nodded after looking at the sky, saying: "Take me to see!"

"Doctor Ye, please follow me!" The boy heard the promise, and his face immediately showed joy. He stood up and hurriedly wiped his face and hurriedly took Ye Chunyang out of the city.

Looking at the boy's back, Ye Chunyang followed with an expressionless expression.

Following the boy's lead, Ye Chunyang walked around all the way, walked in the dark mountain road for a while after leaving the city, and finally stopped outside a dilapidated temple.

"Doctor Ye, my father is inside." The boy pointed to the dilapidated temple, said to Ye Chunyang, and ran into the temple quickly.

Ye Chunyang raised his eyebrows slightly, but walked forward without hesitation.

The ruined temple was overgrown with weeds, with an old incense burner in the middle and a dusty Taoist statue in front. It was obvious that no one had been there for a long time.

But after entering the temple, Ye Chunyang suddenly stopped, his eyes narrowed slightly and showed a cold look. The young man just disappeared in a flash, and there was no one in the ruined temple, which did not look like anyone lived there at all.

"Haha! Can you see it, fellow Taoists? I said that the boy would definitely come. I'm going to win this bet."

At this moment, a crazy laugh came, and several lights of different colors suddenly appeared in the night sky. Several figures flashed out from around the ruined temple. In the middle, a young man in a Confucian robe and an old man in a jade crown were looking at Ye Chunyang with a playful look.

At the same time, the young man in the Confucian robe waved his hand, and the sloppy boy appeared out of thin air, and then turned into a talisman and fell into his hand. The man who claimed to be surnamed Yue before was this person.

"Mortals are so hypocritical. This time, it is Brother Yue's credit, but it is very easy to deal with this kid. We can kill him with just a flick of our fingers."

After putting away the talisman of the young man, the young man surnamed Yue laughed again.

"He is just a mortal like an ant. Why do we need to do it ourselves? I just came here to have fun when I have nothing to do." The old man wearing a jade crown waved his hand with disdain, looked at Ye Chunyang expressionlessly and said, "Kneel down, kid. This may make you die more comfortably."

Ye Chunyang frowned slightly, looked at the old man and said with an indifferent expression, "You have taken great pains to lead me here, but I don't know where I have offended you. Do you want to put me to death?"

These monks are actually several of King Ning's worshippers.

After hearing this, several people were stunned for a moment, and then they looked at each other and laughed, looking at Ye Chunyang with more disdain.

"Brother Chu, it seems that he still doesn't know what's going on. Why don't I explain it to him and let him know?" The young man surnamed Yue sneered and asked the old man surnamed Chu.

The old man looked indifferent and said nothing, and he didn't even bother to look at Ye Chunyang.

The young man surnamed Yue had expected this long ago. With such a high status, how could he take a quack doctor seriously?

Seeing this, the young man surnamed Yue then smiled at Ye Chunyang and said, "Anyway, you will die soon, so it doesn't matter if you live a little longer. Recently, King Ning has valued you very much, but it's a pity that you are just an ordinary person. How can you enjoy equal status with us? In this case, you can only disappear from the world."

"So you think that Ye has violated your interests?" Ye Chunyang looked up at the sky, and a strange look flashed across his face.
