Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 107: Suffering the Consequences

Yao Wang Peak, this is the only peak in the Wuhen Sword Sect that is not named after the word "sword," and it is also where Yin Qianyin resides. It is said that Yao Wang Peak was once full of spiritual herbs, but later it became like other peaks, with only a few cultivated spiritual herbs.

Mo Wuji was stopped as soon as he reached the foot of Yao Wang Peak. The person who stopped him was a female medicine servant under the age of twenty.

"Hello, Junior Sister, I am Mo Wuji from Ou Jian Peak. I have come to see Senior Sister Yin, please inform her." Mo Wuji knew that perhaps in the entire Wuhen Sword Sect, only his Ou Jian Peak was undefended. The other peaks all had defenses. He wasn't trying to set up defenses, but simply didn't have the ability to do so.

"So it's Senior Brother Mo from Ou Jian Peak. Senior Alchemist Yin instructed me before she left that Senior Brother Mo could come in directly. If you want to take Sister Yan'er away, you are also welcome to do so." The medicine servant quickly bowed.

Mo Wuji immediately felt some disappointment in his heart and quickly asked, "Senior Sister Yin isn't here now?"

He came here not only to pick up Yan'er but also to ask Senior Sister Yin about Ou Jian Peak, with the aim of finding the Treasure Blood Lotus.

"Senior Alchemist Yin was invited to attend a Dan Alchemist Exchange Meeting. Senior Brother Mo, please follow me to the guest room to rest," the female medicine servant said politely.

Since Yin Qianyin wasn't at Yao Wang Peak, Mo Wuji had no intention of wasting time there. He immediately said, "Thank you, Junior Sister. I will visit again after Senior Sister Yin returns. I want to take Yan'er away."

"Of course, Senior Brother Mo, please wait a moment." The medicine servant had obviously received Yin Qianyin's instructions and hurried inside after speaking.

Mo Wuji only waited for a few minutes before the medicine servant came over with Yan'er and Xiong Xiuzhu. At the same time, the medicine servant was carrying a large package on her back.

"This is what Senior Alchemist Yin left for Senior Brother Mo before she left," the medicine servant said, handing the package to Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji smelled the fragrance of medicine inside without even opening it. He guessed that it should be the rank-three spiritual herbs that Yin Qianyin had promised him.

Now that he couldn't continue to develop his meridians, these spiritual herbs were very timely for Mo Wuji. He couldn't cultivate, so he could use these spiritual herbs to improve his alchemy skills. This made Mo Wuji even more grateful to Yin Qianyin.

In fact, even if he didn't give the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi to Yin Qianyin, he wouldn't be able to keep it. In other words, Yin Qianyin helped him ward off the Wuhen Sword Sect's questioning, making her kindness even greater. Even so, she still kept her promise and sent him a batch of rank-three spiritual herbs.

...

After returning to Ou Jian Peak, Mo Wuji didn't even have time to open the package of spiritual herbs that Yin Qianyin had given him. He rushed to the sect's Scripture Pavilion.

Mo Wuji wasn't here to check out cultivation techniques. His Undying Mortal Technique was enough for him to cultivate. As for techniques, he wasn't qualified to check them out, nor did he need to. Besides the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi, he also had an unactivated Invisible Sword Inheritance.

He was mainly here to check about Ou Jian Peak. To refine an upgraded version of the Meridian Opening Elixir, he had obtained other upgraded spiritual herbs, but not the Treasure Blood Lotus. In the Wuhen Sword Sect, Guan Li was the one who cultivated the Treasure Blood Lotus. Mo Wuji naturally hoped to find information about the Treasure Blood Lotus or Guan Li in the sect's classics.

To Mo Wuji's disappointment, he spent an entire day checking countless sect classics, and only found that Elder Guan Li lived on the Wuhen Sword Sect's Ou Jian Peak. There was nothing else.

Mo Wuji was still unwilling to give up. He decided to ask Fei Bingzhu. Fei Bingzhu had been in the Wuhen Sword Sect for much longer than he had, so he should know something about Ou Jian Peak.

Once again, he came to the Wuhen Sword Sect's Sect Affairs Hall. Some handyman disciples who recognized Mo Wuji quickly stopped and bowed when they saw him. Even some outer disciples quickly stopped to salute.

An honorary Alchemist in the sect still had a certain status.

Arriving at the elixir dispensing room, Mo Wuji discovered that Fei Bingzhu, who had always been here, was gone. In his place was a disciple he had never seen before.

"Alchemist Mo..." The disciple dispensing the elixir obviously recognized Mo Wuji. When he saw Mo Wuji come over, he quickly bowed.

Mo Wuji asked with some doubt, "May I ask why Fei Bingzhu is no longer here? Did he go somewhere else?"

When the disciple heard Mo Wuji ask about Fei Bingzhu, his tone immediately became hesitant, and he couldn't say anything for a long time.

Mo Wuji's face darkened, and he said in a cold tone, "Where did Fei Bingzhu go? My patience is limited."

Seeing Mo Wuji get angry, the disciple panicked and quickly replied, "Alchemist Mo, please calm down. Senior Brother Fei had already left when I came. I heard that Senior Brother Fei was killed by Alchemist Qu for dispensing the wrong elixir..."

"It's that Qu again..." Mo Wuji was furious. If it was just some minor conflicts between him and Alchemist Qu before, now that Fei Bingzhu had been killed, it wasn't a minor conflict anymore.

However, whether it was his current cultivation level or his alchemy skills, he couldn't seek revenge for Fei Bingzhu.

Mo Wuji didn't continue to waste words. There was no need to get angry with an elixir dispensing disciple.

"Alchemist Mo, please wait..." Just as Mo Wuji stepped out of the Sect Affairs Hall, a small voice called out to him.

Mo Wuji turned around and saw a young man about the same age as Fei Bingzhu. Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he was just an outer disciple.

"You are?" Mo Wuji looked at the disciple who had called out to him with doubt.

The outer disciple quickly said, "I am Wu Rongzhi, an outer disciple. When Senior Brother Fei was taken away, he asked me to look for you, but you weren't at Ou Jian Peak at the time. Senior Brother Fei wasn't taken away for dispensing the wrong elixir, but for speaking up for you."

"What exactly happened?" Mo Wuji's face turned cold. If Fei Bingzhu was implicated by him and killed by that Qu, even if he couldn't seek revenge for Fei Bingzhu now, he would find that Qu in the future to get his revenge.

Wu Rongzhi quickly said, "That day, someone in the Sect Affairs Hall said that Alchemist Qu was about to advance to a Earth Alchemist and would be the most talented alchemist in the Wuhen Sword Sect after Alchemist Yin. There was nothing wrong with that, but later that person also mentioned Alchemist Mo. He said that Alchemist Qu was relying on his abilities, while you were ingratiating yourself with Alchemist Yin. Otherwise, you wouldn't even be qualified to carry shoes for Alchemist Qu, let alone live in Ou Jian Peak."

"Senior Brother Fei interjected and said that Alchemist Qu was indeed the sect's talented alchemist, but the reason why Alchemist Mo was successful wasn't because he was ingratiating himself with Alchemist Yin, but because Alchemist Mo's alchemy talent was extraordinary. He also said that Alchemist Mo was just a handyman disciple with no resources and no one to teach him. It was countless times more difficult for him to become a rank-two Mortal Alchemist than for ordinary people."

"But Alchemist Qu's medicine servant was also in the Sect Affairs Hall that day, and Senior Brother Fei's words angered Alchemist Qu's medicine servant. This medicine servant was very insidious. He didn't say anything at the time, but went to ask Senior Brother Fei to dispense some elixir. In the evening, the medicine servant came over with people from the Enforcement Hall, saying that Senior Brother Fei had dispensed the wrong medicine, causing Alchemist Qu's furnace of elixir to fail. The people from the Enforcement Hall took Senior Brother Fei away on the spot..."

Mo Wuji's expression became a little ugly. Alchemist Qu was a rank-three Mortal Alchemist. If he had taken the wrong medicinal materials, would he not have noticed? Did his medicine servant have the guts to deliberately make a mistake to fool him?

"Alchemist Mo, I heard that Alchemist Qu had something urgent and went to attend some exchange meeting with Alchemist Yin. Senior Brother Fei should still be detained in the Enforcement Hall. I think..." Wu Rongzhi said hesitantly.

Mo Wuji understood Wu Rongzhi's meaning as soon as he heard it, and immediately said without hesitation, "I'll go to the Enforcement Hall right now."

If Fei Bingzhu had been killed, he could only find a way to get revenge for Fei Bingzhu in the future. Now that Fei Bingzhu was alive, he had to take action to save him no matter what.
