In the mountain forest, Hong Butian shuttled quickly.

"If only I could run so fast when my father and uncle chased me..."

Hong Butian sighed: "In that case, they have no chance to catch up with me."

"Okay, kid."

The voice in the ring reminded casually: "Look above your head."

"I've seen it a long time ago."

The short dagger in Hong Butian's hand was swung towards the top of his head, cutting a dark poisonous snake into two sections. The snake's head trembled slightly, as if it wanted to spit out venom, but was crushed down by Hong Butian's kick.

"Today is the twenty-third beast that I encountered today that actively attacked me..."

Hong Butian put away the snake body and sighed: "A few days ago, the forest was quiet as if there were no living creatures, but now it is full of life..."

After a pause, Hong Butian nodded and said: "But this is the forest I am familiar with. There are wild beasts and poisonous insects, which actually makes me feel at ease a lot."

"It's normal."

The ring's voice gradually became excited: "This shows that we are getting closer to the Yaowang Sect.

At that time, we always raised some wild beasts and poisonous insects that could be used for medicinal purposes around the sect...

It seems like I’ve been away for so long, but I’m still the same as before!”

"The sound of raising poisonous substances for medicinal purposes makes me a little panicked..."

Hong Butian said truthfully: "Now that we are here, you should stop hiding anything from me, right?

You said, after I go to Yaowang Sect, I really won’t be tricked by you?"

"You still don't believe me now, do you?"

Ring said a little unhappy: "I risked my life to help you, and now I'm hesitant to ask you to help me?

What, now that I have helped you reach the Qi refining stage, you want to get rid of me and run away, right?"

At this point, Ring's voice couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "If that's really the case, then just think that I was blind and saw the wrong person!"

"Don't worry, since you haven't broken your promise, I will definitely come as promised."

Hong Butian clicked his tongue and said in an indifferent tone: "But if it is really a lie, at least let me know it clearly?"

"I told you, really, don't question it anymore!"

"Okay."

Hong Butian nodded: "I believe it."

"But then again..."

Hong Butian asked the question he was most concerned about, showing a bit of worry: "How did you become like this, and who harmed you to become like this?

According to what you said, you were already a very powerful monk at that time, so wouldn’t the person who killed you be even stronger?"

"Uh, this..."

Ring hesitated for a few moments, then sighed: "Since you asked, I can't hide it anymore. Let me tell you the truth. The person who killed me was a good friend of mine..."

"Huh?"

Hong Butian raised his eyebrows: "He was secretly jealous of you or had some agenda, so he killed you?"

"Well..."

The ring groaned and sighed: "Back then, he invited me to get together with friends on a certain high mountain, and we had a great conversation.

Talking about what he enjoyed, he told me excitedly that he had developed a prescription and had prepared a pill. According to ancient records, that pill can help monks survive thunder disasters more easily...

On the spot, he took out two pills and gave one to me. He smiled and said that after he refined the pills, he notified me immediately and wanted to share this ancient pill with me...

”

"Then...?"

Hong Butian frowned, and gradually began to suspect that the great elder died after taking the pill.

As the great elder of Yaowang Sect, it is quite ironic that he was poisoned to death...

"I was very moved after hearing this and took the pill without hesitation."

Ring sighed and said: "The pill is colorless and odorless, and I can't tell the specific medicinal properties at all. But the more it is like this, the more I think it works."

Sure enough...

Hong Butian nodded secretly in his heart.

"After seeing me taking the pill, my friend laughed..."

"That friend of yours just tore off the hypocrisy and killed you with a grin?!"

Hong Butian looked a little angry: "It's exactly what I thought. I can't stand this kind of betrayal the most in my life..."

"Ahem, that..."

The ring interrupted Hong Butian's small composition and whispered: "My friend laughed loudly and said that he liked a cheerful person like me, so he also took the pill immediately..."

Hong Butian: "???"

"One is poisonous?"

Hong Butian guessed: "The other one is not poisonous?"

"No, he studied the wrong recipe. Both pills are highly poisonous!"

The ring sighed: "Not long after, we both died of the poison and both died suddenly..."

"Bang!"

Hong Butian's head roared, and he shook his head. He looked at the blood stains on the tree in front of him and touched his forehead again. It was wet.

"So?"

Hong Butian ignored the wound on his forehead and hesitated to speak.

"Well, that's right."

Ring sighed: "This is an accidental death.

By the way, didn’t I tell you in the chapter about my appearance that I accidentally ended up in this situation..."

Hong Butian: "???"

Hong Butian: "..."

"My friend was extremely remorseful before he died. He felt that he was just dead and had dragged me along with him..."

There was sadness in the ring's voice: "Then he used his last bit of strength to protect my soul in this ring, but he died with a bitter smile..."

"Ah this..."

Hong Butian didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only sigh: "Please forgive me and accept the change. It's just that a noble and upright person like my predecessor died for this reason, but it makes people feel a little unworthy..."
p>

"Well, maybe, but in my opinion, as long as you are on the road of exploration, no matter how absurd the reason is, it is still a well-deserved death..."

The great elder said with emotion: "I think that the path of our Medicine King Sect has been passed down from generation to generation. From the humble beginning to the current scale, we have faced disasters many times, but we still survived.

This is inseparable from the fact that each of our predecessors tried medicine and developed prescriptions. Some of them choked to death, but they are still respected by us descendants..."

"That is indeed worthy of respect..."

Hong Butian sighed and his eyes lit up: "If this is the case, Yaowang Sect is indeed a place worth visiting!"

"Haha, of course, this place is not far from the canyon where my Medicine King Sect is located. If you hurry up, you can probably get there at dawn tomorrow!"

"Is that so?"

Hong Butian nodded and sped up.

As for the wound on the forehead, it is nothing more than a scratch. After all, he is a monk in the Qi Refining Stage, and he can recover as before with the effort of turning a camera!

Early the next morning, Yaowang Valley.

"So...is this the Yaowang Sect you are talking about?"

Hong Butian stared blankly in front of him and asked the ring, but this time he didn't get an answer.

In front of me, there are ruined walls, broken windows and broken tiles, and there seems to be solidified blood stains in some places...

"This, this, this..."

The ring is incoherent and unbelievable.

"I, I, I...how could this happen? How could this be possible! No, this is impossible!"

"Calm down first..."

"I can't calm down, how can I calm down!"

The great elder broke down and said angrily: "This is my sect, my sect! Tell me how it became like this?!"
