CHAPTER 1068: CHAPTER 1068: STEALING THE HOLY MEDICINE

"Hahaha, that’s great." Long Qie heard the news and excitedly jumped up, laughing so hard his mouth cracked open.

In that moment, all the humiliation he had suffered in Medicine King Valley seemed to vanish into thin air, leaving only utter joy in his heart.

"Mr. Xiao, since that’s the case, let’s hurry back. Hehe, that kid Titan, insisted on being a hero last time, staying alone in the valley to block the Demon Shield Bureau. I’m quite displeased with that. This time we return, I must give him a good beating." Long Qie said excitedly.

Though he said he would beat him up, it was actually because he was too worried about Titan’s previous near-death experience, feeling the need to express it in a manly way.

Xiao Zheng smiled slightly and said, "No rush to go back."

Long Qie was startled and asked, "Mr. Xiao, why?"

Xiao Zheng’s expression turned cold, "These past few days in Medicine King Valley, I’m afraid you’ve been treated poorly, huh. Humph, when did they, Medicine King Valley, get a turn to bully people from Sky Net? Naturally, I need to have a good talk with them."

Xiao Zheng’s words were understated, but they contained an intense killing intent.

Long Qie was startled and persuaded, "Mr. Xiao, we cannot do that. Medicine King Valley is a sacred place of martial arts. Once a conflict arises with them, the consequences are unimaginable. Although I’ve suffered some grievances inside Medicine King Valley, it’s nothing significant, no need for such actions."

Long Qie was mainly worried about Sky Net.

Now, Sky Net was recovering from devastation. Although it had great potential for development, its real strength was not very strong.

After all, in the battle with the Demon Shield Bureau, numerous Sky Net warriors had sacrificed themselves.

In such a situation, provoking a giant like Medicine King Valley, no matter how you look at it, is not a wise move.

Xiao Zheng frowned, "Just let it be like this?"

Long Qie firmly said, "Mr. Xiao, my personal honor or disgrace is insignificant. We must prioritize the greater picture of Sky Net."

Xiao Zheng pondered for a moment, then coldly said, "No, Medicine King Valley must pay the price."

Evil God’s word is like weighty gold.

Long Qie knew that at this time, he could no longer persuade Xiao Zheng, feeling helpless but deeply moved at the same time.

Long Qie knew that when it came to wisdom, Xiao Zheng was a hundred times smarter than any of them, so the consequences of settling accounts with Medicine King Valley, Xiao Zheng was undoubtedly crystal clear about them.

Yet he still wanted to stand up for him.

However, Long Qie didn’t want Xiao Zheng to have a direct confrontation with Medicine King Valley. After pondering for a while, he suddenly thought of a good idea and said, "Mr. Xiao, how about we take a step back?"

"What step back?" Xiao Zheng asked.

Long Qie chuckled and said, "During my days in Medicine King Valley, I didn’t do nothing; I learned some things about Medicine King Valley. Their defenses on the most important Medicine Pavilion are not very tight. We can sneak in at midnight, masked, and steal Spiritual Medicine. At that time, Medicine King Valley will surely be heartbroken!"

"But they won’t know our identities, so even if they are furious, they can’t take it out anywhere, nor can they trouble us."

Xiao Zheng pondered for a while after hearing this and then said, "Alright, let’s follow your plan!"

Long Qie secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Night fell.

In the mountains, everything was still, plunged into darkness, with only the occasional beast roar breaking the night sky, causing the trees to tremble.

Long Qie led Xiao Zheng to the entrance of Medicine King Valley, where the disciple guarding the gate was already drowsy.

Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "Medicine King Valley, a sacred place of martial arts, has such crude defenses. Unexpected."

Long Qie chuckled, "They are used to their arrogance. As a sacred martial arts place in this deep forest, usually no one would come around."

Xiao Zheng said, "This works to our advantage, let’s move."

Upon hearing this, Long Qie moved like a phantom, reaching behind the few gatekeeping disciples, extending a hand, and lightly chopping at their necks.

After a few lightning-fast attacks, these people all fainted. Then Long Qie and Xiao Zheng swaggered through the main gate into Medicine King Valley.

Long Qie led Xiao Zheng along winding paths, passing through several building clusters, finally arriving before a tall and grand hall.

This was the Medicine Pavilion!

In fact, during their approach to the Medicine Pavilion, they encountered some experts from Medicine King Valley. However, Xiao Zheng used his cultivation technique to conceal his aura, so these experts, despite their amazing perception, didn’t find anything amiss.

The journey went surprisingly smoothly.

After arriving at the Medicine Pavilion, Long Qie’s expression turned serious for the first time, saying to Xiao Zheng, "Mr. Xiao, though the guards of this Medicine Pavilion aren’t very focused, their strength isn’t weak."

Xiao Zheng asked, "How strong are they?"

Long Qie said, "As far as I know, there are ten true disciples and an elder in this Medicine Pavilion. The true disciples are all experts at the Innate Realm, with one even reaching the Late Innate stage. And the elder is a master of the Grandmaster Realm’s early stage."

For Xiao Zheng and Long Qie, Innate and Grandmaster were not much of a concern.

But the truly troublesome aspect was not letting them detect their presence!

This posed some difficulty.

Xiao Zheng smiled slightly, saying, "Leave it to me."

After finishing, he walked in front of the Medicine Pavilion and closed his eyes.

With a hum, Long Qie suddenly felt an invisible wave sweeping over his body.

"This...such a familiar feeling, I remember now, this is the unique perception that Mr. Xiao gained after breaking through the Martial Saint Realm! It can sense the presence of strong people." Long Qie looked at him with awe.

Whoosh!

After perceiving for a moment, Xiao Zheng suddenly opened his eyes, and his body shot forward, silently piercing through the Medicine Pavilion’s main door and entering within.

Long Qie dared not make any moves, lurking outside.

After Xiao Zheng entered the hall, he tapped his toes lightly on the ground and swiftly dashed towards a side room.

Inside the hall, a faint sound of wind arose suddenly, and Xiao Zheng was already in that room like a bolt of lightning.

At this moment, the room had five people sitting cross-legged, all of whom were at the Innate Strong People’s level, but their auras were not very powerful.

Innate Strong People had keen senses; as Xiao Zheng arrived, even though he moved very lightly, they still sensed him, and opened their eyes instantly.
