The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 605: Chapter 605: Buried Alive

“Crown Prince!” Both the elderly servant dressed in gray and the middle-aged man looked at Zhou Yishui with worry. Mengyuan was sitting not far away, also glancing at Zhou Yishui, but with an apparent sneer.

“This is the first time I’ve seen you at a disadvantage.” Mengyuan said.

Zhou Yishui did not speak, his expression was somewhat grim, and his physical condition was not good at all.

Those black powders were brought back by the power of spirit eyes and entered Zhou Yishui’s body. If this happened to any other martial artist, he would probably be dead by now.

However, Zhou Yishui reacted extremely quickly, perceived the unusual situation, immediately suppressed these black particles with the power of spirit eyes, and encapsulated them with that power.

In this way, although the power of spirit eyes was severely corroded by the black powders, at least Zhou’s body would not be harmed for a while.

Nevertheless, the longer the black powder remains in the body, the greater the impact on Zhou Yishui.

If he cannot eliminate these black powders in time, the power of spirit eyes will eventually be consumed by this black powder.

“The venom of this Mountain Devouring Flood Dragon is indeed powerful!” Zhou Yishui thought to himself, operating the power of spirit eyes, driving these black powders out bit by bit.

The process was very slow, but luckily Zhou Yishui had a high level of skill and the power of spirit eyes was strong enough. After two days, he finally expelled all the black powder from his body.

Seeing Zhou Yishui’s expression returning to normal, both the gray-clothed old servant and middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and put their minds at ease.

“Crown Prince, how are you feeling?” the gray-clothed old servant asked.

Zhou Yishui looked outside the cave, his eyes somewhat cold.

“I encountered Fang Lin and suffered a little loss. I’m not sure if Xu Wang has been captured by him.” Zhou Yishui said, without hiding anything, informing his confidants of what had happened two days ago.

Hearing this, they gasped in surprise.

Fang Lin was so powerful, he was able to fight Xu Wang to a standstill, and even inflicted damage on the Crown Prince, resulting in the loss of a spirit body and a degree of impact on his physical body.

“Fang Lin, is surprisingly powerful!” The gray-clothed old servant furrowed his brows, clearly caught off guard.

In his mind, the Crown Prince had the aid of a spirit body, and with Xu Wang accompanying him, how could they not easily best Fang Lin, who had not even reached the Heavenly Origin Stage.

However, unimaginably, the spirit body of the Prince combined with Xu Wang, not only failed but also suffered greatly.

“Fang Lin’s strength is not weak, but I don’t take him to heart. However, he is good at using poison, and this flood dragon venom is extremely fierce. In the future, when encountering this boy, be careful.” Zhou Yishui said, still clearly shaken by the potency of the flood dragon venom.

“Shall we go rescue Xu Wang?” the middle-aged man asked.

Zhou Yishui pondered for a moment and looked at Mengyuan.

“The Crown Prince isn’t hoping for me to take action, is he?” Mengyuan said indifferently with a smile.

The gray-clothed elderly and the middle-aged man also looked at Mengyuan. As confidants of the Crown Prince, they naturally knew Mengyuan’s true identity.

“Crown Prince, let me go instead.” The gray-clothed elderly said, as the most powerful among the confidants, he was confident that he could easily take down Fang Lin.

Zhou Yishui shook his head, still looking at Mengyuan: “I hope you can show some sincerity and not sit back and reap the benefits.”

At his words, Mengyuan’s smile faded, replaced by icy coldness.

“I can take action, but everything on Fang Lin’s body will belong to me.” Mengyuan stated her demand.

Zhou Yishui frowned: “Don’t you think you’re being too greedy?”

Mengyuan laughed lightly: “We, at Hidden Kill Hall, do not need others to tell us what to do. Our relationship is merely one of collaboration. You should understand that what I want to do and how I want to do it is all up to me.”

Zhou Yishui was silent, then nodded.

Mengyuan gave a faint smile, then immediately left the cave.

Seeing Mengyuan leave, the gray-clothed old servant spoke: “Crown Prince, if she succeeds, shall we…” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

As he spoke, he paused, his face full of murderous intent.

Zhou Yishui glanced at him: “We can’t mess with the people from Hidden Kill Hall.”

The gray-clothed elder and the middle-aged man remained silent. It was true, they could not afford to mess with Hidden Kill Hall. Once they took action, if Hidden Kill Hall was oblivious it would be fine, but if it detected or even had suspicions, the consequences would be severe.

“Besides, this woman still has some value, When she becomes totally worthless, I naturally will have a way to make her unable to leave this place.” Zhou Yishui said, cold light flashing in his eyes.

····

Fang Lin didn’t get any valuable information from Xu Wang, but there were quite a lot of ancient medicinal herbs, which were a small gain. Naturally, they were divvied up by Fang Lin and Steward Shen.

As for Xu Wang’s weapon, the Gold-patterned Spear, it was a good piece of equipment. Steward Shen was used to using swords and was not good with spears, so Fang Lin naturally kept the Gold-patterned Spear.

There were marks left by Xu Wang on this spear. Fang Lin directly erased them and marked the spear as his own. After toying with it a bit, he found it quite suitable for his use.

This spear was indeed a treasure, created from superior materials. Fang Lin indeed lacked a handy weapon at this point, and he could use this spear for the time being.

As for what to do with Xu Wang himself, Fang Lin and Steward Shen discussed for a while.

Originally, Fang Lin wanted to get some information about Crown Prince Zhou Yishui from Xu Wang, but Xu Wang turned out to be hard-boiled and wasn’t scared, even after Fang Lin fed him a poison pill.

Encountering someone not afraid to die threw Fang Lin for a loop and he was uncertain of what to do.

However, it was proven that everyone fears death. Even though Xu Wang acted tough, he was constantly terrified of death.

Fang Lin dug a hole in the ground and threw Xu Wang in like a dead dog, slowly covering him with dirt.

Initially, Xu Wang showed no fear, as if he was ready to die gallantly, and continued to curse at Fang Lin.

But as the soil continuously covered his body, Xu Wang’s expression changed.

When only Xu Wang’s head was left outside, and he felt difficulties breathing, fear shone in Xu Wang’s eyes. He suddenly realized that he was scared of dying, and wanted to live very much.

“Stop,Stop!” Seeing that Fang Lin was about to completely bury him alive, Xu Wang finally couldn’t help but shout.

Fang Lin stopped, looking at him with a puzzled face.

“I will tell you everything about the Crown Prince, but you must promise not to kill me!” Xu Wang gritted his teeth and said.

Fang Lin laughed: “Why didn’t you just say this sooner?”
