241: Chapter 241: Being a Concubine and Still Wanting to Be a Saint

Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng, Medicine Dust, and the high-ranking officials of Medicine God Palace finally understood why these people had come to Medicine God Palace.

It turned out that Yun Zhenzi of Qingmu Peak, in refining the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill, had used unspeakable methods to bring people to Medicine God Palace as Medicinal Slaves, and unexpectedly, they had come knocking.

Now, Medicine God Palace wanted to deny this debt, but they couldn't.

Although Qingmu Peak was destroyed, it originated from Medicine God Palace, and as high-ranking officials of Medicine God Palace, they had an undeniable responsibility.

One must know that there were tens of millions of Cultivators' departed souls beneath Qingmu Peak.

However, as high-ranking officials of Medicine God Palace, although they knew the reason, since Qingmu Peak had been destroyed, they probably thought the anger had mostly subsided.

Then, Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng knelt on the ground and sincerely said, "Seniors, mighty ones, we truly did not know about the things Qingmu Peak did.

Please, Seniors, spare us, considering that our Medicine God Palace is an Alchemy Sect that provides Medicinal Pills to various forces in the Northern Region.

Our Medicine God Palace is willing to reduce the price of Medicinal Pills by 50% for ten years, just to gain your forgiveness."

Medicine Dust and more than fifty high-ranking officials of Medicine God Palace behind him also echoed, "We truly were unaware of Qingmu Peak's shameless actions.

If we had known, our Medicine God Palace would have destroyed this cancerous growth of the Northern Region, and would never have allowed it to flourish until now.

Please, sirs, give our Medicine God Palace another chance."

Ji Ziyue sneered, "I wonder if you all have heard this saying: 'Under an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.'

If it weren't for your indulgence, could Qingmu Peak have developed to this point?

They harmed tens of millions of people; were you all truly unaware?

So, don't think that just because Qingmu Peak was destroyed, everything is fine."

At this moment, the Azure-Eyed Fire Crystal Fox took out a Magical Artifact resembling a book and said to Ji Ziyue, "Xiao Ziyue, you spoke very well.

Under an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

This is a Magical Artifact my master asked me to give you, saying it would be useful to you."

After Ji Ziyue received it, the relevant information and usage method of this book-like Magical Artifact appeared in Ji Ziyue's mind.

"So this Emperor Artifact is the Myriad Tribulation Lock, a Magic Treasure that simply allows one to peer into Lifespan."

"This is too miraculous; as long as the opponent's essence blood is dripped into it, one can know how many years they extended their Lifespan by absorbing others' Lifespan, and it can even lock the opponent's Divine Soul, akin to forced enslavement."

At this moment, Ji Ziyue knew how to punish these people.

Ji Ziyue sneered, "Didn't you all claim not to know about Qingmu Peak using Medicinal Slaves to refine the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill and the Pine Crane Longevity Pill?

Alright then, I'll give you a chance.

As long as you are unrelated to this matter, I will let you go."

Upon hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng secretly rejoiced at this moment, "My dealings with Yun Zhenzi were all done in secret; no one else knew.

Now that Yun Zhenzi is dead, there's even less evidence.

This time, I, Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng, can finally escape death and get off scot-free."

"You little girl, trying to play with us old monsters.

Little girl, you're still too green."

The other Elders of Medicine God Palace had the same thought at this moment, as they had actually heard whispers about how the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill was refined.

However, they couldn't resist the temptation of the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill, so they all conducted their dealings in secret, turning a blind eye to what Qingmu Peak was doing.

Yun Zhenzi naturally also wanted it this way, after all, what he was doing was shady, and if it were exposed, no one's Face would be saved.

At this moment, Ji Ziyue took out the Myriad Tribulation Lock and said to the high-ranking officials of Medicine God Palace, "Please, everyone, drip your essence blood onto this Magic Treasure.

As for the result, I will judge for myself.

I am not a bloodthirsty person, and I hope you all can leave unscathed."

Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng sneered at this moment, "Little girl, you think you can scare us with an unknown Magic Treasure?

I, Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng, refuse to believe in such evil.

I don't believe that with just a drop of essence blood, you can know that I, Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng, am related to Qingmu Peak, unless you perform a Soul Search, but you have no evidence now, so on what grounds would you perform a Soul Search on me?"

Then, Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng directly dripped a drop of blood onto the Myriad Tribulation Lock.

And on the first page of the book where the Myriad Tribulation Lock was, a piece of information appeared.

"[Name] Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng"

"[Position] Medicine God Palace Grand Elder"

"[Lifespan] Twelve thousand years, extended by eight thousand years after taking Reversing Fate Emperor Pill."

Ji Ziyue glanced at it, frowned, and then came to Medicine Dust's side.

And this look, in Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng's eyes, was nothing but powerless fury.

"Little brat, out of tricks, aren't you?

You're still wet behind the ears, yet you want to fight with me.

Go Cultivate for another ten thousand years."

"[Name] Medicine Dust"

"[Position] Medicine God Palace Master"

"[Lifespan] Three hundred thousand years, has not taken Reversing Fate Emperor Pill, Pine Crane Longevity Pill, or other Lifespan-extending Medicinal Pills."

After glancing at Medicine Dust, Ji Ziyue showed a look of sympathy and surprise, however, this look, in Medicine Dust's eyes, held another meaning.

That was, he could be slaughtered at any time, and then beads of sweat appeared densely on his forehead.

Then, all the high-ranking officials of Medicine God Palace present were tested by the Myriad Tribulation Lock, and to Ji Ziyue's utter surprise, everyone present, except for Medicine Dust, had more or less taken the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill or the Pine Crane Longevity Pill.

"It seems this Medicine Dust was completely kept in the dark by his subordinates; perhaps all the information he heard was false, otherwise, as the Palace Master, Medicine Dust would have discovered Qingmu Peak's actions sooner or later.

This Sect Master is truly too pathetic."

Ji Ziyue now looked at Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng with a sneer, "You're Supreme Elder Yao Changfeng, aren't you, the Grand Elder of Medicine God Palace?

Just now, didn't you say you were completely unaware of Qingmu Peak's affairs?

Then, do you want to explain to me about taking the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill to extend your Lifespan by eight thousand years?"

"You're truly a whore who wants to erect a memorial arch."

"And you, who took the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill to extend your Lifespan by three thousand years."

"You, who took the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill to extend your Lifespan by five thousand years."

"And you, I remember you are the head of Medicine God Palace's Law Enforcement Hall, aren't you?

You actually took the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill to extend your Lifespan by twenty thousand years.

How much did you take?

Do you know how many Cultivators' lives this was exchanged for?

And you were just pretending to be innocent with me."

Upon hearing this, everyone who had taken the Reversing Fate Emperor Pill slumped down, showing an expression of disbelief.

Because what Ji Ziyue said perfectly matched their actual situation.

And the only one present who didn't slump to the ground was Medicine Dust, because Ji Ziyue hadn't pointed him out.

At this moment, he finally understood what Ji Ziyue's gaze had meant back then.

It was pity for him.

Over fifty high-ranking officials of the entire Medicine God Palace, including the Grand Elder, had been infiltrated by Yun Zhenzi.

This was a complete disregard for him; he had been a truly failed Palace Master.

Then Medicine Dust also slumped to the ground, his Face utterly devoid of hope.

He felt that the whole world was deceiving him.

Now, thinking back to the Faces of those people in the main hall, everyone was complimenting how capable Qingmu Peak's Yun Zhenzi was, how much Spirit Stone revenue he brought to Medicine God Palace, saying things like Qingmu Peak was Medicine God Palace's greatest peak, and so on.

Medicine Dust had even, on several occasions, earnestly held Yun Zhenzi's hand, saying that Yun Zhenzi was a great contributor to Medicine God Palace, and so forth.

Now, thinking about it, he just wanted to vomit.

At this moment, Medicine Dust was disappointed in Medicine God Palace, utterly disappointed.

How could he not want to be a good Palace Master of Medicine God Palace, to make the reputation of Medicine God Palace flourish, and to benefit the entire Northern Region and even the Xuantian Continent?

And now, Medicine God Palace was famous, completely famous.

But this was a bad reputation, a notorious one, and as the Palace Master of Medicine God Palace, he was undeniably responsible.

Then Medicine Dust knelt on the ground and said to Ji Ziyue and the others, "As the Palace Master of Medicine God Palace, I, Medicine Dust, failed to manage Medicine God Palace properly and am undeniably responsible.

Please, sirs, kill me.

I have no Face to live in this world.

I want to atone for the tens of millions of wronged souls beneath Qingmu Peak."
