152: Su Ran escaped from Medicine King Valley

As soon as this disciple spoke, Han Xintian secretly thought that things were going south.

"Really?" Ling Xian smiled.

"Naturally."

Ling Xian took out that mask from his storage ring and put it on. Instantly, he was filled with baleful aura. Then, his black hair turned into long white hair fluttering in the air as he leaped up.

"The King of the East Sea has come to visit Medicine King Valley!"

The voice rolled like thunder, exploding with a loud bang.

At first, it was just a point, but then it seemed to come from above the nine heavens, like the Milky Way pouring down, echoing for ten miles.

Finally, the resonance of the voice began to settle. It didn't disappear, but instead turned into countless fine threads, sinking into everyone's ears and shaking them until they were dizzy.

Inside the central hall of Medicine King Valley.

Several elders and Alchemists looked at each other, with a few Consecrated Experts occasionally chipping in.

"Arrogant! What King of the East Sea? I've never heard of him. His voice sounds a bit immature; could it be some junior playing a prank on us?" one elder spoke up, his temper explosive.

But his words were deeply agreed upon by the other elders and Alchemists.

What was the status of their Medicine King Valley in the Martial Arts World? It was transcendent.

How could they let a junior cause trouble at will? Could it be that anyone could step on them in the future?

"No, I've heard of this King of the East Sea," one of the Consecrated Experts said.

Consecrated Experts were different from these elders and Alchemists who didn't go out. They knew more about the Martial Arts World and were naturally aware of the recently famous King of the East Sea.

From being a Young Grandmaster to slaying several Grandmasters in a row, this growth speed could be called terrifying.

"Do you know about the Third Elder? He might have been killed by him," the Consecrated Expert said with a solemn expression.

"Also, the Seventh Elder, Elder Shen, hasn't returned yet. I'm afraid he has also met a tragic end at his hands."

Instantly, the entire hall fell silent.

They knew the Third Elder went to kill Ling Xian because of Su Ran, but they didn't expect to offend the King of the East Sea because of it.

In their eyes, the King of the East Sea and Ling Xian had always been two different people.

"Enough nonsense. Let's ask the Valley Master to act. By uniting all the martial artists and Sorcerers in the valley, can we not kill a mere King of the East Sea?" the hot-tempered elder spoke again.

"Hehe, even the Third Elder died at the hands of the King of the East Sea. If you're so capable, go yourself. Don't drag us to our deaths," a plump and beautiful female elder said.

These words hit home for many people present.

Even if they could kill the King of the East Sea, with his Grandmaster realm, killing a few Grandmasters wouldn't be a problem, right?

If it were an ordinary Grandmaster, they wouldn't think this way.

But the opponent was very likely a Grandmaster who killed the Third Elder, who was also a Grandmaster.

He could no longer be viewed as a normal Grandmaster.

"Fifth Elder, don't forget that your younger sister, Han Xintian, might also have died at the hands of the King of the East Sea. Stop making sarcastic remarks," the Second Elder, that hot-tempered elder, continued.

"Hehe, do you think it's still like ancient times where people treat each other with courtesy? Or do you think everyone is as rigid as you lot? Since he's a Grandmaster, if he can't win, won't he run?"

"If numbers alone could kill the King of the East Sea, then so many Grandmasters wouldn't have lived until now," the plump and beautiful Fifth Elder retorted, her sharp tongue never stopping.

If Ling Xian were here, he would suspect that Han Xintian had learned from this sister of hers.

"You..." The Second Elder was choked up, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Old Second, Old Fifth, stop fighting among yourselves. What both the Second Elder and Fifth Elder said is correct.

Since this King of the East Sea can kill a Grandmaster, he can no longer be treated as an ordinary Grandmaster. We need the Valley Master to use the grand array to ensure nothing goes wrong!" The First Elder stroked his white beard, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

Boom!

These words shocked everyone present.

That grand array was meant for dealing with eighth-rank experts.

Now using it against a Grandmaster, wasn't that like using a cannon to kill a mosquito?

But before these people could react, Ling Xian's voice rang out again.

"The King of the East Sea has come to visit Medicine King Valley!"

"This kid!"

These elders, Alchemists, and Consecrated Experts all rushed out one by one.

On the other side, Su Ran was dazed in a small courtyard.

"Why does this visit sound so full of baleful aura? And this voice sounds a bit familiar?" Su Ran put down the alchemy ingredients in his hand, his brow furrowing slightly.

"Could it be that Medicine King Valley has provoked some incredible figure?"

During his time in Medicine King Valley, although he had handed over a portion of the Nine Revolutions Dragon Needle, he had also learned a lot about pill refining.

He had even used the pills from Medicine King Valley to break through to the Grandmaster realm.

It could be said that if nothing was wrong, he really didn't want to leave Medicine King Valley.

This was simply a cultivation holy land.

But if Medicine King Valley really encountered a crisis, then sorry, I, Su Ran, am not a mighty being; escaping is the priority.

At this time, the various elders, Alchemists, and Consecrated Experts were all rushing toward this direction.

A distance of several hundred meters was just a blink of an eye for this group of experts.

The hot-tempered Second Elder ran to the very front, flying slightly higher than Ling Xian.

"King of the East Sea, are you unaware of the prestige of my Medicine King Valley?"

"Hehe, it's not some forbidden land, so why wouldn't I be able to come?" Ling Xian sneered.

"Old Second, do not be rude in front of a Grandmaster." The First Elder rebuked him and cupped his hands. "The King of the East Sea certainly hasn't come to my Medicine King Valley for no reason. I wonder if we can discuss this peacefully?"

"The Third Elder of Medicine King Valley joined forces with six Grandmasters to besiege me.

Then hand over Su Ran and ten stalks of thousand-year precious medicine as an apology." Ling Xian said calmly.

Everyone looked at each other. He killed the Third Elder of Medicine King Valley, and yet he came to demand compensation?

And those six Grandmasters invited through connections—would those sects just let it go?

"Go and tie Su Ran up." The First Elder was quick-witted and naturally knew that Su Ran was worth nothing at this moment. With a wave of his hand, several Grandmaster-level elders and Consecrated Experts went ahead.

At this, Ling Xian shook his head, also realizing that they wouldn't be able to catch Su Ran.

If Su Ran hadn't broken through to the Grandmaster realm by now, he wouldn't be worthy of being the Child of Destiny.

As a Grandmaster, fighting several Grandmasters of the same level shouldn't be a problem, right?

Of course, Ling Xian didn't plan to kill Su Ran yet. After all, the seven senior sisters hadn't all appeared yet, nor had that beautiful Sect Master.

Moreover, Su Ran had the most flourishing luck among the Children of Destiny he had encountered so far, and there would be many more opportunities ahead.

It was impossible to kill him now anyway.

Sure enough, Ling Xian's guess was correct.

Before those Grandmasters reached their destination, a black circle appeared behind Su Ran.

A black-robed figure stepped out of the black circle.

Seeing the familiar figure, Su Ran said in surprise, "Black-Robed Uncle!"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't want to die, come with me." The black-robed figure's voice was aged.

Su Ran didn't waste any words and followed the black-robed person into the black circle, leaving the place.

When the Grandmaster Elders and Consecrated Experts arrived, all that remained was the unextinguished pill fire and the unrefined pills.

Their faces were pale, not knowing how to face the King of the East Sea.

A minute later, several elders whispered a few words to the First Elder.

Then, the First Elder's expression became awkward.

"Su Ran is not in my valley. Your Excellency King of the East Sea must have gotten it mixed up." The First Elder held his ground, continuing to pretend to be calm.

"Then hand over all the thousand-year precious medicine in Medicine King Valley as compensation!" Ling Xian had already guessed this; his purpose in coming this time was for the entire Medicine King Valley.

"That's too much. My Medicine King Valley can compensate you, but Your Excellency is being too greedy." The First Elder frowned and replied.

He knew that a battle today was unavoidable.
