Chapter 281: Admiration and Unity

vade the attack of the old man from Di Que.That streak of spiritual energy brushed past Qin Sang's back, easily tearing off a large piece of flesh, exposing bone.Adding insult to injury, Qin Sang gasp...After bidding farewell to Yu Kong, Qin Sang sat cross-legged on the cushion, lost in thought.

In Xihhuang Town, especially among cultivators who frequently operated in the area, few truly believed the rumors of the medicine garden's existence. Most were skeptical and might have gone to investigate out of curiosity, but it wasn't their primary objective.

After all, there are still some treasures in important places within the Autumn Heron Pavilion market, and the time for the guardian formation to be at its weakest is very short. Once the Autumn Heron Pavilion market closes, it becomes extremely dangerous inside, and no one dares to stay there for thirty years.

Instead of wasting energy searching for illusory gardens, it's better to focus on vying for tangible treasures.

If not for the sight of the jade pendant brought out by the Cloud Wanderer, Qin Sang would have almost doubted the truth of this matter.

The Jade Pendant's Appearance was shown to the Cloud Wanderer by Ge Yuandao, and Ge Yuandao's identity is rather special.

The person who discovered the medicine garden was named Shao Chunhui. Ge Yuan considered Shao Chunhui a friend and they had collaborated several times before. They were both discerning individuals, and their past interactions had been harmonious, without any discord or friction. This fostered a foundation of trust between them.

Yu Kong and the others didn't know about Ge Yuan.

Before Sha Chunhui took action, he had approached Ge Yuan and shown him this scene. He also invited Ge Yuan to join him in searching for the elixir. However, out of caution, Sha Chunhui only showed a glimpse of the iceberg and did not provide too much information.

Due to trust built from several previous collaborations, Ge Yuan readily agreed. However, Shao Chunhui then disappeared without a trace.

However, the one who first spread the rumors was not Ge Yuan.

Ge Yuan had long since forgotten about this matter. It wasn't until two years ago, when rumors about Qiuhongfang Market Pharmacy Garden suddenly spread, that he remembered it suddenly.

After secretly investigating, Ge Yuan suspected that the murderer who killed Shao Chunhui was one of his companions who entered Qiuhongfang City with him.

Ultimately, the focus landed on the three of Yu Kong.

Only these three people tried to return to Qiuhongfang Market and actively recruited people.

As for avenging Shao Chunhui, Ge Yuan had neither the ability nor the intention. Their friendship didn't reach the level where he would sacrifice himself for her.

Ge Yuan knew that the three of Yu Kong were all very powerful. No matter which one was the murderer, he was not their match.

But Ge Yuan was very interested in elixirs.

Shao Chunhui displayed a sight that was too tempting, whether it was the ancient cultivator's herb garden or the spirit medicine planted by the former owner of Qiuhongfang Market, both were undoubtedly very valuable. Even getting one or two plants would be greatly beneficial for cultivation.

Because Ge Yuan was weak and could not determine the culprit, he decided to stir up the situation, adding fuel to the fire and using rumors to spread the flames.

It would be better to have someone secretly take the elixir and cause chaos, maybe that way we could take advantage of the situation.

Unfortunately, Ge Yuan's actions were not discreet. As soon as he began his movements, he almost exposed himself. Luckily, Yun Youzi happened to be there at the crucial moment and saved Ge Yuan's life.

After understanding the situation, Yun Youzi stopped Ge Yuan's rough plan. After all, there were countless masters entering Qiuhongfang market. If the medicine garden was exposed, those spiritual herbs wouldn't be enough to share.

Finally, they decided to infiltrate the three men's ranks separately. Their goal was to find out the location of the secret passage. As long as they could get inside, they would be able to survive.

Ge Yuan stayed in Xihhuang Town to observe the situation, while Yun Youzi returned to Xuankang Pass to bring back Qin Sang.

Ten days later.

Qin Sang once again went out in the morning and met Yu Kong.

Before Yu Kong had gathered enough people to practice the formations, Qin Sang went out almost every day these days. He scoured Xiwang Town, sometimes sitting in a teahouse for an entire day, and other times he moved between shops, buying information with spirit stones.

Yu Kong had long grown accustomed to such things and didn't urge Qin Sang to reply to his invitation.

“Dao Chang is always rushing about, I wonder what news he’s gathered” Yu Kong asked feigning curiosity, but a hint of confidence played on his lips. He was clearly certain Qin Sang couldn't have made any progress.

Qin Sang chuckled and clasped his hands together, "It's nothing, it's nothing..."

Watching Qin Sang leave, Yu Kong let out a wry smile and shook his head.

Qin Sang still did what he usually did. When passing a dark alley, his eyes suddenly focused. He walked into the alley without changing his expression. When passing a shop, he darted inside.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The person in the shop was none other than Yun Youzi.

"Senior, to meet like this in such a rush, are you not afraid of revealing traces" Qin Sang frowned, questioning with displeasure.

He was extremely cautious in his attempts to contact Yu Kong, as any meeting would be highly risky.

“Qin Lao Di, rest assured. I'll be right behind you. No one is following us,” Yun You Zi led Qin Sang into the back hall and whispered, “Qin Lao Di hasn't met Ge Dao You... Sheng Yuan Zi has gathered his people, Ge Dao You is about to leave Xi Huang Town. It might be too late if we wait any longer. The old Dao will give you the Tong Xin Pei first.”

Besides Yu Kong, there were two other people. One was named Luo Xingnan, and the other was called Sheng Yuanzi. Like Yu Kong, they were both masters at the mid-stage of foundation building.

Ge Yuan was recruited by Shengyuanzi, and Yunyouzi seems to have successfully infiltrated Luoxingnan's team.

In the back hall, Qin Sang first met Ge Yuan.

This person looked about the same age as Qin Sang, handsome and imposing. There was a hint of arrogance between his brows. Qin Sang keenly sensed that when Ge Yuan looked at him, there was a slight look of disdain in his eyes.

In the cultivation world, strength is paramount.

Ge Yuan's cultivation was higher than Yun Youzi's, almost on par with Yu Da Yue. He was close to breaking through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. If Yun Youzi hadn't saved his life, he might not have been convinced by him.

Qin Sang bowed. "I have met Daoist Ge."

"Master Dao, please do not be so courteous."

Ge Yuan nodded casually, scrutinizing Qin Sang, and warned without any politeness, "In Ge's view, Daoist Priest's cultivation level is indeed too low. However, the senior Yun You Zi spoke highly of Daoist Priest, so I believe Daoist Priest should not disappoint the senior"

As long as things get done, Qin Sang doesn't mind being looked down upon by Ge Yuan. He replied calmly: "Rest assured, Daoist Ge, I will definitely follow the instructions of my seniors. Once I find any clues, I will inform you two immediately and never act on my own."

"Only then did Ge Yuan let Qin Sang go, turning his head to look at Yun Youzi, "Senior, time is short, let's split the Tongxin Pei first."

The cloud wanderer nodded, taking out three identical ivory round pendants.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

These three concentric pendants were crafted from the ivory of a single Heavenly Net White Elephant demon beast. This old man obtained them only after extensive inquiries.

The legend of the Heavenly Net White Elephant says it has the bloodline of the divine beast, Ti Listening. The Jade Pendant also possesses psychic abilities and can transmit messages, though not over long distances. Within Qiuhongfang market, this is sufficient enough.

The three of us simultaneously drip our blood onto the Same Heart Pendant. Once we discover a clue, we immediately crush the pendant, which will allow the other two to know.

The same heart amulet has a strange power and won't have any spiritual fluctuations. Others can't possibly detect it.

However, you two should be careful, once the token of unity is crushed, it cannot be restored. There's only one chance, make sure the message is true, otherwise everyone will have worked for nothing.
