Seeing Zhang Ye come in, the shopkeeper pointed and said, "Yes, the medicine was provided by him. I'm not sure about it here, so I've sent it to headquarters for now. You might as well chat with him."
This idle and useless middle-aged loose cultivator narrowed his eyes to size up Zhang Ye, saying: "I am Yu Jizǐ, little brother, do you still have any remaining elixirs that you've refined?"
He saw that his attitude was good, and Zhang Ye was about to answer when the purple-clothed man suddenly sent a thought: "Tell him that refining is not easy, it takes seven days, let him wait."
Zhang Ye didn't suspect Zi Yi either, and smiled: "I don't have any goods on hand, it takes seven days to refine them, we'll deliver in seven days."
Yu Ji Zi nodded slightly, "Don't worry, feel free to practice more, I won't treat you unfairly."
"Goodbye." Zhang Ye bid farewell to Yu Jizi and left the pharmacy.
Strolling in the gathering area, gradually moving away from the pharmacy, a purple-robed prompt came: "Don't make a sound, leave immediately, run as fast as you can after no one is around. Leave the island quickly."
Zhang Ye was tense, but not flustered. Following Zi Yi's instructions, he strolled around casually, circling a few times. At the same time, he asked mentally, "What's going on?"
"Yu Ji Zi has been harboring evil intentions towards you from the very beginning. This person's cultivation is deep, and you are not a match for him now. The island has its own rules, and he cannot make a move conveniently. Letting you promise seven days was just a delaying tactic to relax his guard, we will secretly take action." Zi said.
Zhang Ye was about to turn back to the seaside villa to call Abao, when some voices came from behind: "Look, that's Zhang Ye, it really is Zhang Ye."
"Are you sure it's Zhang Ye?" a voice asked.
"It's certain, we saw it with our own eyes last time, he was on the island and killed Huang Jian, a disciple of Donghai." A group of voices accused.
Hearing this, Zhang Ye's scalp felt numb.
"Zhang Ye, stay behind." Two male voices rose up, one in front and one in back.
Whoosh, two figures flashed by, and two young men were already standing nearby. The two men were dressed alike, in green robes with their hair tied up and a jade pin crossing over it.
Terrible!
This is the style of Donghai Fudi's true disciples. Donghai Fudi ranks first among the great gates of Kunlun Xianjing, and his true disciples must have real strength.
After a few moments of thought, Zhang Ye bowed his fist and said: "Why did you two masters call me?"
One of them sneered and said: "I heard you're good at playing dumb, and it seems to be true. You've forgotten so quickly?"
Zhang Ye said: "I really forgot, please give me a reminder, brother, what was I doing?"
"White poplar, white pine." The two of them nodded in unison and it was settled.
After that, Bai Yang, who was somewhat more composed, said: "You have come to this place and killed my East Sea inner sect disciple. The whole world already knows about it. Do you think you can just leave now?"
Zhang Ye said: "There are many misunderstandings in this matter. I thought that the elder Taixu had already made it clear to your sect."
Another white pine gritted his teeth and said, "You think you can get away with murder and robbery so easily?"
"Frankly speaking, although the seniors of Tai Xuan Men have made some arrangements for this, based on your reputation, it's hard for us to believe that you didn't kill people for treasure."
"Nonsense." Zhang Ye said, "You and I were not acquainted, what you said was just hearsay. Your inner sect disciples were injured by the Four Yangs' fire of their own treasure, and later died in the sea at the hands of the Tiger Headed Green Shark, if you want to find trouble, you've found the wrong target."
"Cut the crap!" The somewhat impatient Bai Song stared at the Qī Bǎo Hú Lù (Seven Treasures Gourd) around Zhang Ye's waist, "The Wǔ Líng Shén Dǐng (Five Spirits Divine Cauldron) cannot..."
He didn't finish speaking when he was suddenly kicked by Bai Yang, who had been standing guard at the city gate, and stopped.
Zhang remained still and expressionless, pretending not to notice, but his heart skipped a beat as he realized their intentions.
Logically speaking, having the Five Spirits Divine Cauldron should be known to very few people. The Five Spirits Divine Cauldron is not even their East Sea's treasure, this Bai Song actually wanted to say Shenmu Wangding, but "heart has its thoughts, mouth has its slips of the tongue".
Looking at Zhang Ye's careless appearance, Bai Yang continued: "The treasure tripod originally belonged to the elder of our sect. After these twists and turns, although it is said that the treasure tripod was returned, but it didn't say clearly what happened, we can't be sure if it was your Taixuan Sect elder who returned it. Since we met you here, you are directly related to the death of my East Sea disciple, please come back with us to East Sea for a while, and let our sect's elders make a judgment on right and wrong."
Zhang Ye thought to himself, "I'm afraid you're not taking me to the blessed land of Donghai, but rather deceiving me off the island and killing me for my treasure."
From Bai Song's slip of the tongue about "Wu Ling Shen Ding", Zhang Ye was almost certain of their purpose.
No one else knew about the Five Spirits Cauldron, so how did the news get out? Was it Huo Tianlang? Did he want to kill with a borrowed knife? Is this what Tan Siqin meant by "carrying the jade and committing the crime"?
But all these are later stories, the urgent task is to shake off these two people and also avoid that Jade Machine.
When something happens, Zhang Ye's mind is always particularly clear. He roughly has a thread of thought.
"Ideas turn fast," Zhang Ye said, "The two of you are right in theory, but Tian Ye also has his own reasoning. Since you want to take me to meet your elders, naturally there should be Tian Ye's elders following along as well. This is the way it should be, what do you two think?"
"This..."
Bai Yang smiled awkwardly and said, "That would take up too much time, coming and going would take at least half a month. And from here to my East Sea Fudi is not far. Please rest assured, the East Sea has always been a major sect of the immortal path, even if there's no one from your family, it will definitely not bully people and will guarantee your safety. Just follow us and report back, after confirming everything is fine, you can leave on your own."
As they spoke, Bai Song's gaze fell on Zhang Ye's Seven Treasures Gourd again, revealing a hint of greed.
Zhang pretended he hadn't seen it.
Bai Yang was shocked and stomped his foot heavily on Bai Song's foot.
Zhang remained silent and expressionless, pretending to be deep in thought.
It was also at this time that the voice of Zǐ Yī came from the sea of consciousness: "More and more troublesome, the jade mechanism that had been lurking earlier has come out, hiding in the dark to observe all of us."
Zhang Ye's mind was racing quickly.
The white poplar asked without feeling anything unusual, "Zhang Ye, do you agree? With just one word, we are a major sect of the immortal path and righteous people. Can't our promise put your mind at ease?"
Zhang Ye put on a "thoughtful" look and said, "Well, I've been overthinking. Donghai is the first major sect of Kunlun, so it's naturally trustworthy. Alright, I can follow you guys for now and personally clarify things with your seniors."
Bai Song was overjoyed at once.
"Good," said Bai Yang with a nod, "then let's set off immediately."
"Wait, both of you," Zhang Ye raised his voice and said, "just wait a few more days."
"White Poplar frowned and said: 'Why?'"
Zhang Ye said, "The two of you don't know, I've just taken on a business deal and made an appointment with someone to provide a batch of Dan medicine. Originally it was supposed to be ready in seven days, but even if I rush the refining process, it will still take five days for the Dan to be formed. I don't want to break my promise to this person."
"What a hassle, I'll go talk to him." Ba Song showed an impatient look.
Bai Yang stepped on him again and smiled at Zhang Ye: "That's right, keeping one's word is the tradition of our Xian Dao disciples. If Night Master won't break his promise to strangers, he certainly won't break it with us, the Xian Dao Alliance, will he?"
Zhang Ye's eyes blazed with excitement as he nodded and said, "Exactly! My Immortal Dao Alliance is as firm as the heavens and earth, and it's not something to be taken lightly."
"In that case, we won't disturb you. We'll wait for you at the small courtyard on the west of the island at any time." Bai Yang smiled and clasped his fists, then pulled Bai Song a few times before he was willing to follow him and leave.
As they watched the two disappear from view, a voice came from Ziyi in the sea of consciousness: "One arrow, two birds, Yujizi has also put his mind at ease, he has left."
If not now, when?
Zhang Ye's sudden turn around.
