Black Night Filled the Sky
Chapter 35 Senior Brother Means...? Murder and Silence [New Book Seeks Collection]
The pill furnace trembled.
Hot air permeated the area.
In that instant, Lu Changsheng thought about fleeing the scene.
But just then.
The pill furnace calmed down.
*Whoosh.*
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Changsheng regained his composure.
"It's done! It's done! It's done!"
Liu Qingfeng's excited voice rang out.
The pill furnace stabilized, but it emitted a large amount of mist, and the pill fire gradually extinguished.
"Quick, open the furnace and take a look."
Lu Changsheng appeared somewhat excited.
The second pill formula was also successfully refined.
He just didn't know what kind of pill it was.
He opened the pill furnace.
In an instant, black pills appeared, tinged with a faint red color, but emitting an exotic fragrance, and surrounded by wisps of blood energy, making them look quite extraordinary.
Liu Qingfeng reached out to grab one.
But before he could reach it, the scorching pill energy made him withdraw his hand.
He had never refined pills before and had forgotten the steps. He immediately took out a bottle, cast a spell, and instantly, the pills in the pill furnace automatically flew up and landed in the jade bottle.
"Senior Brother, look quickly."
He had succeeded in refining pills on his first try.
Liu Qingfeng was extremely excited, feeling that he was one step closer to becoming an unparalleled alchemist.
"Junior Brother, let me test you. What kind of pill is this?"
Lu Changsheng didn't know what kind of pill it was, so he asked Liu Qingfeng.
"Senior Brother, you really can't stump me with this. Among your medicinal materials, three are blood-tonifying, and eighteen auxiliary ingredients are qi-tonifying, so this should be a Perfect Blood and Qi Replenishing Pill, right?"
Lu Changsheng: "........"
Although he thought the name "Perfect Blood and Qi Replenishing Pill" was a bit silly, for a moment, Lu Changsheng didn't know how to refute it.
Soon, Lu Changsheng glanced at the pills in the jade bottle and immediately said,
"Qingfeng, why don't you try the effect of this pill?"
"Okay."
Liu Qingfeng didn't think much and directly picked up a pill, but just as he was about to eat it, he suddenly paused.
"Senior Brother, what does this pill do?"
Rarely, Liu Qingfeng used his brain a little and didn't try the medicine randomly.
"It's very useful."
Lu Changsheng said inscrutably.
He had no idea what it was for.
However, his pill formula wasn't randomly written; it was based on the original formula of the Golden Crow Blood Qi Pill, with various modifications.
In theory, it should be a blood and qi replenishing pill.
"Uh..." Liu Qingfeng thought for a while, but still didn't dare to swallow it. Instead, he said, "Senior Brother, I see that those fellow disciples outside are doing hard labor and are exhausted. Why don't we let them try it?"
It had to be said that Liu Qingfeng was very cunning. Although he believed that Lu Changsheng wouldn't harm him, he didn't dare to test the pill himself.
"Alright, go quickly."
Seeing that he couldn't fool Liu Qingfeng, Lu Changsheng didn't force him. He'd just switch to someone else, as long as he could test the pill's effects.
"Okay, Senior Brother, wait for me. I'll be right back."
Hearing Lu Changsheng's words, Liu Qingfeng directly opened the door of the pill room and went to find a brave pill tester.
Half an hour later.
Liu Qingfeng rushed back, covered in sweat.
"What are the effects?"
Lu Changsheng asked.
"Senior Brother, we're in trouble, we're in trouble."
Liu Qingfeng seemed extremely flustered.
Lu Changsheng's expression couldn't help but change.
Something happened?
Was anyone hurt?
Crap, crap, crap, did something really happen?
At this moment, it was impossible not to be anxious, but Lu Changsheng was also very calm and quickly thought of an excuse.
At a critical moment, betraying Liu Qingfeng was a last resort. At worst, he would give him some compensation after he became the headmaster.
"What happened?"
Lu Changsheng asked.
"This pill is a blood and qi replenishing pill, but the problem is that after eating it, people will lose their memory."
Liu Qingfeng said quickly, his face full of anxiety.
"Lose their memory?"
Lu Changsheng was a little surprised. How could it cause memory loss?
"It really causes memory loss. After I gave it to that person, he was indeed surrounded by blood energy, looking very extraordinary, but soon he seemed to have forgotten many things, and even asked who Junior Brother was and where this was. This is a big deal."
Liu Qingfeng said anxiously.
"Who did you give the pill to?"
Lu Changsheng couldn't help but ask.
"Zhao Yang, a True Disciple from the Violet Azure Sacred Ground."
Liu Qingfeng said.
*Hiss!*
Lu Changsheng couldn't help but gasp. It wasn't because the other party was so powerful, but because this Zhao Yang was a disciple of the Violet Azure Sacred Ground, not his own Da Luo disciple. If it were a Da Luo disciple, losing their memory wouldn't be a big deal; at worst, he'd let Liu Qingfeng take the blame.
But if he harmed a disciple from another sect, that wouldn't be a small matter.
"What should we do? Senior Brother!"
Liu Qingfeng was also panicking. If word got out, he would definitely be done for.
"Don't panic yet. Let me ask you, who else was there at the time?"
Lu Changsheng said very calmly.
"No one, just me. I met him at the foot of the mountain."
Liu Qingfeng replied.
"What was he doing at the time?"
Lu Changsheng asked.
"Secretly absorbing immortal qi."
Liu Qingfeng answered truthfully.
Lu Changsheng: "........"
"Are you sure no one saw you?"
Lu Changsheng asked again.
Liu Qingfeng thought carefully, and soon he shook his head and said, "No."
Hearing this answer, Lu Changsheng breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"In that case, Junior Brother, listen to me."
Lu Changsheng said with utmost seriousness, "No matter what, don't say that you met him. You just stay here and refine pills with me. No matter what happens, deny it to the death, understand?"
Hearing Lu Changsheng say this, Liu Qingfeng immediately understood. He nodded and said, "Senior Brother means that since no one knows that I had contact with him, I should simply deny it to the death?"
"That's right!"
Lu Changsheng said with unwavering certainty.
"But there's no such thing as an airtight wall. What if..."
Liu Qingfeng said worriedly.
"If that kind of thing happens, then you might as well admit it."
"Qingfeng, it's not that Senior Brother is shirking responsibility, but this matter has a huge impact. If it's just you alone, at worst, you'll just have to face the wall, but if it involves Senior Brother, the entire world will be shaken, and the Da Luo Sacred Ground may face a diplomatic incident."
"Moreover, it's just memory loss, it's not a big deal. Maybe it'll be fine in a few days. When the time comes, Senior Brother will intercede for you, and this matter will be dropped. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Lu Changsheng said earnestly, trying to deceive him.
In short, he wasn't going to take the blame.
After listening to what Lu Changsheng said, Liu Qingfeng thought about it carefully.
Indeed, if the matter was exposed, he would take the blame, and at most, he would get a beating. But if it involved Senior Brother, it would be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Liu Qingfeng gritted his teeth and said, "Senior Brother, it's true that Junior Brother was reckless. If something really happens, Junior Brother will definitely not implicate Senior Brother."
Qingfeng said with utmost seriousness.
After all, Lu Changsheng was the Senior Brother, and if things really got serious, Lu Changsheng would protect him no matter what.
"Good! Junior Brother, Senior Brother will remember this kindness. When Senior Brother becomes the headmaster, I will never forget it."
Lu Changsheng patted Liu Qingfeng on the shoulder, looking like a promising disciple.
"What do we do next?"
Qingfeng asked.
"Continue refining pills! Ignore it, and pretend that nothing has happened."
Lu Changsheng replied.
"Okay."
Liu Qingfeng nodded.
After that, the two kept refining pills, but their minds were not on refining pills at all.
After a while.
Liu Qingfeng's voice slowly rang out.
"Senior Brother, what if that guy recovers his memory?"
He thought of a key point.
"Then we can only take a risk."
Lu Changsheng said with a cold expression.
"Take a risk? What does Senior Brother mean?"
"Are you going to kill him to silence him?"
Liu Qingfeng asked with a surprised face.
Lu Changsheng: "........"
Lu Changsheng was speechless. Kill him to silence him?
It was fortunate that they were a famous and righteous sect.
Did he have no brains?
If he recovered his memory, he would just feed him another amnesia pill.
What an idiot.
Lu Changsheng explained unhappily.
And Liu Qingfeng suddenly realized.
