At the next moment, Fu Liantao’s voice rang in his ear, “Don’t talk, I have reached a dead end. If you don’t want to die, cooperate with us, or you will definitely die. Anyway, my time on earth is limited.”
Liang Sheng felt extremely helpless, wondering why so many troubles had befallen him. Despite his reluctance, he could only cooperate at this point. He lowered his head and was escorted out of the market by the two of them.
Although Chen Sheng’s fame had already spread throughout the market, many people didn’t pay attention to Liang Sheng, who walked out of the market with his head down, escorted by Fu Liantao and his partner.
And so, Liang Sheng was taken out of the market in this way, becoming more and more helpless.
Why were there more and more people?
It was because someone was following them from behind. It was none other than Pei Shiping, who had personally taken action after getting the news.
Pei Shiliang had been keeping an eye on the market all this time, and Fu Liantao had been discovered by Pei Family’s secret agents as soon as they appeared in the market.
As Pei Shiliang reported the situation, he couldn’t help but ask, “Ancestor, now that Chen Sheng has been abducted by them, should we inform the Hua Tian Sect?”
“There’s no need. Those two old fellows have a lot of things on them. If we involve the Hua Tian Sect, I’m afraid we won’t even be able to taste the soup.
Moreover, the black market’s affairs can’t be leaked. Even if the Three Sects and Six Orders have some suspicions, without evidence, they won’t care too much.
So, I’m going to take action personally. But, for now, everything has to remain the way it was. We can’t startle the snake in the grass. When I’m sure all the things are in place, I’ll consider when to make a move.
But 1 don’t know what preparations those two old guys have made, so 1 might not be back for a while. You have to take care of the family affairs in the meantime.”
“Rest assured, Ancestor, everything at home will be fine.”
After that, the hidden agents from the Pei Family who had been tracking them didn’t leave the market, acting as if they knew nothing, while Pei Shiping followed them quietly.
Liang Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief at that moment, as none of the people from the Three Sects and Six Orders had come after them, which was undoubtedly good news for him.
At this moment, Fu Liantao and his partner didn’t care much about Liang Sheng, who was just a Qi Cultivation Fivefold rookie. After leaving the market, the two of them visibly relaxed.
So, while they were off guard, Liang Sheng activated the one thousand stacked Vajra Talismans on his body, to which they had no reaction.
They had no idea who they had captured. Liang Sheng’s defensive measures on himself were far from just the Vajra Talisman.
After an unknown number of turns, Fu Liantao finally stopped at a cliff.
“Master Chen!”
Hmm?
Wang Kuo?
The moment Liang Sheng saw Wang Kuo, he understood what was going on.
It seemed that Fu Liantao and his partner hadn’t given up yet. As it turned out, Wang Kuo said that he had originally gone to another market but was found by Fu Liantao and his partner.
Wang Kuo had been too relaxed, thinking that since Fu Liantao had let him go, they wouldn’t come after him again. Little did he know that they had only released a smokescreen and had tampered with him all along.
Fu Liantao and his partner had just been putting on a show earlier, aiming for the final deal in the black market. Moreover, they had already exchanged all their resources in another market where Wang Kuo was located.
They got ten sets of materials for Foundation Establishment Pills.
This showed that their actions were now nothing less than a last-ditch effort.
“Daoist Chen, sorry for the inconvenience.”
As he spoke, Fu Liantao stared intently at Liang Sheng, who didn’t resist and remained calm.
Pei Shiping, on the other hand, hid behind them. As a fellow Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, Liang Sheng was naturally even more cautious. However, Pei Shiping thought he was the mantis catching the cicada, not knowing that Liang Sheng was actually the oriole coveting from behind.
Seeing Liang Sheng behaving so sensibly, Fu Liantao was delighted but also somewhat regretful. If they had known, it would have been better to tie him up directly in the first place, instead of causing such a big stir.
Just when they thought they could refine pills smoothly, Liang Sheng suddenly asked, “Daoist Wang, do you know why my alchemy skills are better than all of yours?”
Wang Kuo nodded his head in admiration, “Because you are obsessed with refining pills, even if it’s a medium or high-grade spiritual pill that’s impossible to refine, you will never give up and will never be shaken in your heart by failure.”
“Actually, that’s only part of the reason. No one knows that there’s another reason for my excellent alchemy skills, which has to do with my nose.”
“Your nose?”
“Yes, I can smell the condition of the Spiritual Grass during the pill refining process. I can grasp even the slightest differences. Just like right now, I can smell the scents of five people.”
“Five people’s scents?”
Immediately after, Fu Liantao and his partner realized what was going on. They quickly stood up and scanned the surroundings. The next moment, a burst of laughter rang out.
“Daoist Chen is truly a Pill Maniac, what a remarkable ability.”
Fu Liantao and his partner changed their expressions as soon as they heard the laughter and took a defensive stance right away.
“Pei Shiping!”
