Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Obtaining the Medicinal Ingredients

"No...no survivors?"

Mu Cheng was instantly stunned.

Mu Cheng had actually heard from his father long before about the identity of the Murderer before him. He knew this was someone who had committed countless major crimes recently.

But now, as he personally heard the Murderer casually talk about killing, as if taking a life was as trivial as killing a "chicken" in his eyes, Mu Cheng couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart.

However, Mu Cheng quickly recovered.

He immediately showed a fierce look in his eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, "Okay, I’ll need Brother’s help at that time."

"Hmm, that’s nothing, but you haven’t yet answered my question. The person you want me to deal with, what exactly is his identity? Or does he have any special background?"

"Identity? Background?"

Hearing the Murderer’s words, Mu Cheng finally smiled.

A disdainful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth as he scornfully said, "Brother, rest assured, I have already thoroughly investigated that person’s details. There’s definitely none of the identity or background you mentioned earlier."

After a slight pause, Mu Cheng continued, "If I really had to say he has some sort of background, it would only be something like a director of the education bureau, maybe some relationship with him, and a policeman, but those are merely insignificant roles in the secular world."

Unknowingly, Mu Cheng’s mentality had subtly shifted.

Previously somewhat concerned about the figures behind Zhu Fei, since seeing the powers of Elder Blood and the Murderer, he somehow felt a sense of condescension.

It seemed to Mu Cheng that those secular high-ranking officials were altogether trivial in his eyes now.

"Oh, that’s good."

The Murderer nodded, then said, "However, we still need to wait a bit for this matter. Wait until my injuries are almost healed, and then you can take me directly to him, and I will take care of him."

"Your injury?"

Mu Cheng was slightly startled, looking at the Murderer with some confusion.

He couldn’t understand how anyone could injure the Murderer with his strength.

"Yes, it’s about that matter our master had your father investigate recently, the person who injured me a while ago."

As the Murderer spoke, a deep resentment flashed across his eyes, then disappeared quickly.

He looked at Mu Cheng again and continued,

"Alright, if you have nothing else, then I will begin teaching you some basic Cultivation Techniques. Since master entrusted you to me, it’s my duty to teach you some things."

"Oh, okay, thank you, Brother."

Hearing the Murderer’s words, Mu Cheng was overjoyed.

He didn’t dwell on what the Murderer had just said, let alone imagine that the person who had injured the Murderer was actually Zhu Fei, whom he would be targeting later.

...

In the evening, as Zhu Fei was packing his belongings, preparing to stay at Pan Tingting’s place according to the address given by her earlier,

his phone, which he carried with him, suddenly rang at this moment.

Zhu Fei picked up the phone and found out it was Xu Pengfei calling him, so he casually answered.

"Hehe, young Brother Zhu, do you have some time right now?"

As soon as Zhu Fei’s call connected, Xu Pengfei on the other end of the line was directly laughing and asking.

"Oh, it’s Manager Xu, what’s up? You were looking for me?"

"Yeah, actually it’s nothing important, but I was just wondering, Zhu Fei, do you still remember that you once mentioned wanting to meet Elder Song?"

"Oh, does Elder Song have time now?"

When Xu Pengfei spoke, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, then smiled and asked in return.

"Ha ha, not exactly, but a few days ago, Elder Song had come over to my place, and I shared your earlier thought with Elder Song."

"After hearing about it, Elder Song asked me to tell you that next Sunday, he would contact you and then meet with you."

Xu Pengfei paused slightly, then continued, "Also, the medicinal materials you asked me to apply for previously have been delivered by someone sent by Elder Song, and he also said that these materials would be his gift to you for when you meet, so he won’t be charging you for them."

"I called you this time to ask if you were free now, and if you are, you could come pick them up; that way, I can report back to Elder Song too."

"Oh, that matter."

After listening to Xu Pengfei’s explanation, Zhu Fei was quite startled.

He hadn’t expected Elder Song to be so generous. They hadn’t even met face to face yet, and he was already sending him a set of medicinal materials.

Zhu Fei had later made a special check; the medicine he intended to buy was priced at at least six hundred thousand.

Even with a discount from Xu Pengfei, that set of materials wouldn’t cost any less than five hundred thousand.

Thinking this, Zhu Fei developed an unseen fondness for Elder Song, whom he had not yet met.

Despite knowing that Elder Song must have his own motives in courting his favour.

But it was undeniable that, as an elder, being able to lower his stance so much demonstrated his magnanimity.

At that moment, Zhu Fei checked his phone for the time, guessed it was still early, and with a smile said,

"Alright, in that case, I’ll come over now, and we can talk about anything else when I get there."

After saying this, Zhu Fei hung up the phone, hailed a taxi from the roadside, and headed straight towards Chunqiu Pavilion.

...

About a moment later, when Zhu Fei walked into Chunqiu Pavilion, Xu Pengfei was already smiling and holding a set of medicinal materials, coming over to Zhu Fei.

"Zhu Fei, here is the set of medicinal materials you need. Take a look, and if everything is in order, just sign here."

"Mhm."

Zhu Fei didn’t stand on ceremony; he took the materials and quickly inspected them, and seeing that they were indeed what he needed, he immediately signed his name on a form beside him.

Then, after a brief thought, he suddenly asked Xu Pengfei, "Manager Xu, I wonder if Elder Song would still be interested in that original formula I had?"

"Zhu Fei, you mean..."

Xu Pengfei’s heart rate inadvertently sped up upon hearing Zhu Fei’s words.

He was well aware that Elder Song had greatly valued some of the pharmacology in that formula.

If Zhu Fei could now share some of that pharmacology from the original formula, allowing him to pass it on to Elder Song, then his standing in Elder Song’s eyes would undoubtedly deepen.

This was indeed a meritous act.

With this thought, Xu Pengfei’s eyes gleamed with a touch of eager anticipation as he looked at Zhu Fei.

"Hehe, exactly, if it’s convenient for you, Manager Xu, please get me a paper. I’ll write down the pharmacology and the use of that original formula, and you can pass it on to Elder Song."
