Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2228 - 2184: Situation in Chi Yang City
Previously on Peach Blossom Divine Medical God...
"Alright, since it’s effective, I’ll give you the formula, and you can find someone to mass-produce it." Chen Yang said.
"Okay."
Huang Tianwen agreed, and then Chen Yang wrote the elixir’s ingredients and the crafting methods on a note and handed it to Huang Tianwen.
Once Huang Tianwen received it, he immediately handed it to his servants and instructed them to find people to start mass production.
After completing these tasks, he turned around and thanked Chen Yang: "Chen Daneng, thank you so much, you are truly Weng City’s benefactor."
"City Lord Huang is too kind," Chen Yang replied courteously, and then asked: "I came this time to test the elixir’s effectiveness, that’s one reason."
"Additionally, I would like to understand the specific situation over in Chi Yang City."
Chen Yang got straight to the point, and Huang Tianwen seemed to have anticipated this, as he immediately shared everything he knew after hearing Chen Yang’s inquiry.
"The situation in Chi Yang City is actually quite simple."
"Currently, Chi Yang City has completely sealed off any information. Except for the nearby few cities, no other forces are aware."
"Moreover, someone came to report this morning."
"The pressure from the ancient cave has mostly dissipated, within two days at most, it could accommodate experts of the Condensation Realm to enter."
"So your visit today is perfect timing, people from the surrounding cities are already preparing and gathering in Chi Yang City."
...
Huang Tianwen shared everything he knew with Chen Yang in one go.
However, most of what he said was just about the situation in Chi Yang City and the current status.
As for the circumstances within the ancient cave, he was unaware.
But that’s normal; until the ancient cave became visible, no one knew what the situation inside was.
Now that it has been exposed, and since no one has entered, how could anyone know what’s inside?
Nonetheless, Huang Tianwen did reveal a guess: Chi Yang City once had a superpowerful individual.
He was very strong, known as Fire Sun True Monarch.
And judging from the situation this time, it’s very likely that the ancient cave belonged to that Fire Sun True Monarch.
There’s even a rumor that inside the ancient cave is a ball of Heavenly Spirit Fire.
Because back then, that Fire Sun True Monarch possessed Heavenly Spirit Fire, which enabled him to ascend to a powerful realm.
"Heavenly Spirit Fire?"
Upon hearing this news, both Chen Yang and Tu Qi were shocked.
That’s quite exaggerated.
Heavenly Spirit Fire, such a powerful thing, would appear in the ancient cave? Seems a bit unrealistic, doesn’t it?
"Yes, it’s possible, but no one has seen it, it’s just speculation." Huang Tianwen nodded and said.
Initially, Chen Yang and Tu Qi were only interested in the ancient cave.
But upon hearing that there might be Heavenly Spirit Fire inside, they became determined to go there.
What luck would Heavenly Spirit Fire bring?
If the rumors are true, then it’s a massive fortune!
"Chen Daneng, if both of you wish to go, you should hurry today; otherwise, if you’re late, there might not be a chance." Huang Tianwen added.
Tu Qi then asked: "City Lord Huang, if such a chance exists, why don’t you go?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang also realized.
Indeed, with such a great opportunity, no one could resist the temptation, right?
Why doesn’t Huang Tianwen go?
Chen Yang looked at Huang Tianwen doubtfully.
Huang Tianwen replied with a bitter smile: "Weng City is too poor, cannot compare to Chi Yang City or the nearby cities."
"Moreover, I’ve never been on good terms with the leaders of Chi Yang City and the other nearby cities, once inside the ancient cave, all decorum is lost."
Huang Tianwen understands himself well; keeping Weng City safe is already satisfying enough, why risk seeking such fortune?
Huang Tianwen’s words made sense.
As a city lord himself, he is only at mid-stage Condensation; aside from Weng City, there are almost no experts at the Condensation Realm.
This level of strength is definitely bottom-tier among all the city pools in Cangnan Academy.
Some towns even have the strength like Weng City.
Knowing his limitations, he chooses not to compete, which is reasonable.
"Given that, why don’t you report to the academy? Sealing off information and exploring the ancient cave alone is a major crime, the academy won’t easily let Chi Yang City off." Tu Qi asked again.
"Tu Daneng, I did think about reporting, but even if the academy deals with the Chi Yang City lord, my own situation wouldn’t be much better."
"The Chi Yang City lord has been my neighbor for so long; surely he has some dirt on me, right? If I report, I won’t end well either."
"And reporting would upset the other city lords around, indirectly offending many people, it’s not worth it."
Huang Tianwen continued to smile bitterly.
Listening to this, Tu Qi and Chen Yang didn’t say much more.
His reasoning was indeed sound.
"Chen Daneng, Tu Daneng, take these two tokens, they might help you face the inspections in Chi Yang City." Having said that, Huang Tianwen took out two tokens and handed them to Chen Yang and Tu Qi.
The tokens looked ordinary, made of iron.
With Weng City’s letters written on them.
"These are tokens from Weng City; currently, Chi Yang City is sealing off information and inspecting people."
"Besides Chi Yang City, people from surrounding towns will be uniformly expelled; with these tokens, you won’t be expelled."
Before Chen Yang and Tu Qi asked, Huang Tianwen proactively explained the tokens’ function.
"Alright."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang accepted it; it would indeed be useful.
"Yes, that’s all I can inform you about. You should set off soon; the ancient cave’s pressure could disappear at any moment. Being late even by a step can make a world of difference." Huang Tianwen nodded and said.
"Alright, City Lord Huang, then we bid farewell."
Seeing this, Chen Yang had no intention to linger, nodded in agreement, and then left Weng City with Tu Qi, heading straight for Chi Yang City!
The distance from Weng City to Chi Yang City is just a few dozen kilometers; in about an hour, they reached Chi Yang City
At this time, as Huang Tianwen said, Chi Yang City was indeed on high alert.
The vast Chi Yang City had six or seven city gates.
And every gate was manned by many armored guards inspecting every entrant.
Without delay, Chen Yang and Tu Qi entered through the west gate.
"Who are you?"
As soon as they got to the entrance, armored guards immediately interrogated them.
They were soldiers from Chi Yang City’s city lord’s residence, all with high strength.
Even regular soldiers had mid-stage Gathering Spirit strength.
Some team captains reached late-stage Gathering Spirit, or even Great Perfection.
A team captain has such strength; others might have even higher realms.
Chi Yang City, as a medium-sized city, was indeed a notch above Weng City in every aspect.
"We are from Weng City," Chen Yang responded.
"Weng City?" The inquiries armored guard was initially stunned, then sneered with a contemptuous expression.
However, he didn’t openly ridicule, just the contempt was naturally displayed on his face.
