Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2216 - 2172: Ignorance
Previously on Peach Blossom Divine Medical God...
Yang Qingwan looked at Chen Yang, a horrified expression also on her face.
She stayed silent for several seconds before she slowly opened her mouth.
"Are you alright?"
"Nothing serious."
Chen Yang grinned, then flew straight toward the woods where Zhang Qun had fallen and found his corpse.
After what had just happened, he didn’t dare be careless.
Only after he completely confirmed that Zhang Qun was dead did he step forward, tear off the storage treasure from Zhang Qun’s corpse, and begin checking it.
This old bastard really lives up to being a pyramid-scheme ringleader.
The storage space was almost entirely cultivation resources squeezed out of the sect followers.
Inside the storage space, Spirit Stones were piled up like a mountain.
Conservatively estimated, there were at least tens of thousands.
For a Loose Cultivator, this was an astronomical amount of resources.
As Chen Yang was looting, Yang Qingwan also landed.
Chen Yang ignored her and continued ransacking Zhang Qun’s body.
After studying for quite a while, he found that Zhang Qun did have quite a few good things on him, though nothing particularly precious.
Most of it was just cultivation resources.
And in the very depths of his storage space, a Cultivation Technique that had been hidden there caught Chen Yang’s interest.
"Great Cultivation Technique."
Looking at that Cultivation Technique wrapped in black, Chen Yang inexplicably felt a sense of foreboding.
Could this thing be the Cultivation Technique Zhang Qun cultivated?
And his method of collecting the power of faith, did he also obtain it from here?
Chen Yang didn’t have much time to think it through in detail; Yang Qingwan was watching from the side, and there was still a lot to deal with back in Urn City.
Withdrawing his mind from the storage space, Chen Yang looked at Yang Qingwan and said, "There are a lot of cultivation resources in here. Since you saw it, how about we split it fifty–fifty?"
Yang Qingwan was definitely interested in cultivation resources.
Even if she came from a great clan.
The cultivation resources of a great clan were also limited, not infinite.
"Alright."
Yang Qingwan nodded slightly, agreeing to Chen Yang’s proposal.
"Good."
Chen Yang didn’t feel any heartache and directly divided half of the resources in Zhang Qun’s storage space to Yang Qingwan.
Because he knew.
If Yang Qingwan hadn’t come to help, he wouldn’t have been able to take care of Zhang Qun.
Not only would he have gotten none of these resources, he wouldn’t even have been able to complete his mission.
Looked at that way, these cultivation resources were really nothing.
"Let’s go, head back. There’s still a big mess waiting for us in the city."
After the split, Chen Yang didn’t linger. He immediately lifted Zhang Qun’s corpse and headed back to Urn City.
Yang Qingwan returned together with him.
On the way back, Yang Qingwan still couldn’t hold back and asked Chen Yang, "Just now, how did you block Zhang Qun’s strike?"
She had seen Zhang Qun’s attack with her own eyes.
It was so terrifying that even she wasn’t confident she could retreat unscathed.
Yet Chen Yang had done it.
He was only at Early-stage Condensation; it was just too unimaginable.
So she was especially puzzled.
"I got a bit of a fortuitous encounter before and obtained a protective treasure. The treasure helped me bear most of the damage, so I came out fine." Chen Yang fell silent for a moment, then casually made up a reason.
In truth, that wasn’t the real reason.
It was because of Sun Xiaosheng in the gourd!
At the instant he condensed Spiritual Energy and fought back, a strange power had merged into his Spiritual Energy.
Chen Yang had been puzzled at the time, but quickly understood.
That was Sun Xiaosheng’s power helping him.
Otherwise, there was no way he could have escaped such an attack unscathed.
But he absolutely couldn’t expose Sun Xiaosheng’s existence to Yang Qingwan, so he just casually found an excuse.
Hearing Chen Yang answer like that, Yang Qingwan didn’t think too much about it.
After all, in the cultivation world, there were plenty of things one could use to save their life.
If Chen Yang had such strength, he must have had decent fortune. For him to obtain some life-saving items really wasn’t strange.
"So that’s how it is. Then your luck is really something. Just now I thought something bad was going to happen."
Yang Qingwan said mildly.
Hearing that, Chen Yang only smiled slightly, then said nothing more and followed Yang Qingwan all the way back to Urn City.
At this moment, the situation in Urn City was even worse than he had imagined.
The Formation in the city had disappeared, and those Worship Heaven Sect followers who had been brainwashed were inciting the ordinary people in the city to riot.
"How dare you kill our Sect Hierarch and protector, you won’t come to a good end. Heaven will punish you."
"Oh Heaven, look at these ignorant people, quickly send down divine punishment and execute them."
...
The city was filled with cries and wails.
If they hadn’t been afraid of Huang Tianwen’s Condensation Realm strength, they would probably have already attacked him together.
Before Chen Yang returned, the city had already been like this.
And when Chen Yang came back to the city carrying Zhang Qun’s corpse, all the Worship Heaven Sect followers exploded on the spot.
Some wailed, some raged with grief.
The scene was simply something else.
But in the eyes of Chen Yang, Yang Qingwan, and Huang Tianwen, this was pure ignorance.
"Did what you just saw still not wake you up? This guy doesn’t represent Heaven at all. He’s just an evil cultivator who practiced some heretical Cultivation Technique! He’s been harming you."
Standing in midair, Chen Yang shouted down at those who still refused to wake up.
"You’re talking nonsense! The Sect Hierarch obviously helped us increase our strength. He is Heaven’s representative. You killed him, Heaven will punish you."
A pair of obsessed Worship Heaven Sect youths stood up crying, pointed at Chen Yang, and shouted loudly.
"Wuu-wuu... yeah, Heaven will punish you."
"You killed the Sect Hierarch, you won’t have a good end."
...
Their curses and wails filled the ground.
Chen Yang listened and actually felt like laughing.
"Is this so-called increase in strength what you’re talking about?"
Chen Yang smiled as he took out a bottle of Dryness-Craving Pills from the gourd.
All the followers saw the elixir in Chen Yang’s hand and their eyes instantly went red.
They still believed that this elixir was a divine Elixir.
That it was granted by Heaven and could help them increase their strength.
"Divine Elixir! Why do you have the Divine Elixir in your hand?"
"Hurry up and give me the Divine Elixir, I want to increase my strength."
...
Down below, as soon as the group of followers saw the Dryness-Craving Pills they went crazy, baring their teeth and claws as they lunged for it.
"This is not any ’Divine Elixir’ at all, but an elixir called the Dryness-Craving Pill. After you take it, you will indeed feel a temporary increase in strength, but its side effects are enormous as well..."
Hovering in midair, Chen Yang directly explained the ingredients of the Dryness-Craving Pill, and what effects it had once refined and ingested.
After listening to Chen Yang’s explanation, the crowd immediately descended into chaos...
But how could they possibly believe him so easily?
It was still that same youth.
Who knew whether he’d been poisoned by Zhang Qun too deeply, or that deep down he had already more or less realized the truth but didn’t dare believe it, choosing instead to deceive himself.
After hearing Chen Yang’s explanation, he was the first to jump out and refute.
"You’re talking nonsense. This is clearly a Divine Elixir. After we take it, only our strength increases; there are no side effects at all! You killed the Sect Hierarch and still want to slander him. How vicious you are—you’re the real evil cultivator!"
The youth pointed at Chen Yang and rebuked loudly.
He actually showed not the slightest fear of Chen Yang.
