Chapter 464: Chapter 464: Li Yanran’s Doubts

Li Yanran stared blankly, the claim that Lu Chen had given them poison pills was confirmed.

She saw with her own eyes Lu Chen put down the pills.

And now, these three women, confused in mind, were undoubtedly poisoned!

Li Yanran frowned and, looking at Lu Chen who was wearing the Path-protecting Clothes of the Heavenly Pill Pavilion, asked, "Brother Lu, was it those two friends of yours who gave the poison pills?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "No, it was..."

He had wanted to say it was from Gui Zhuo.

But then he thought of how Ning Changzhong had already stirred up waves in Li Yanran’s heart; if he mentioned Gui Zhuo now, it might affect her State of Mind adversely, to his disadvantage during their venture in the Haotian Secret Realm. So, he simply said, "It was from another person in the Heavenly Pill Pavilion, those two friends of mine are merely Qi Refinement Realm cultivators, serving as menial workers in the Pavilion. How could they possibly refine such poison pills?"

After all, the person he had killed was dead without proof, and this could be settled after dealing with the current matters.

Li Yanran was stunned, "How could menial workers qualify to come to the Haotian Secret Realm? Just like our Casting Gear Pavilion, the Heavenly Pill Pavilion is a third-rate sect. Logically, in such a secret realm where one can find many Spiritual Medicines, they could bring some back and refine a fair amount of pills."

She herself was thinking of looking for good materials for Artifact Refining in the Haotian Secret Realm.

How could the Heavenly Pill Pavilion not think the same?

Piecing together various facts about the Spirit Sound Sect, Li Yanran sharply sensed that there must be some hidden affairs!

Moreover, when the Spirit Sound Sect had just entered the valley, their junior sister had domineeringly intended to make Lu Chen work for her.

Of course, at that time they did not know that Lu Chen was a disciple of the Ji Pavilion.

It was after entering the secret realm that they contacted Lu Chen using a spirit sound bell.

Lu Chen knew he had misspoken, but was unable to explain, so he simply said, "I’m not sure about that, but for now, let us move on. If we get the chance, we must kill Yu Zhibai, that traitor! The sect leader gave each of us a substitute doll, and it won’t be easy to take him down. Also, as you now know, he has joined the Haotian Sect!"

"Brother Lu, I’ll listen to you."

At least within the Haotian Secret Realm, Li Yanran was following Lu Chen’s lead.

"Then we should kill them now, to prevent them from running around and causing trouble!"

Lu Chen’s eyes narrowed as he took out his Heavenly Inquiry Spear and speared each one.

Just as he was about to summon Spiritual Fire to completely erase their bodies, Li Yanran suddenly said, "Brother Lu, let’s take their storage bags and Magic Artifacts first! Since they are disciples of a top-tier sect, they must be quite well-off, and their Magic Artifacts can be melted down and refined to extract some high-quality materials."

Lu Chen was taken aback, and then joked, "You certainly know how to manage resources."

Melting down Magic Artifacts to reuse materials was indeed as Li Yanran had suggested.

But the problem was that it required extremely high skill in Artifact Refining; otherwise, the extracted materials could turn out to be useless waste.

These words seemed to carry a double meaning, but Lu Chen had mentioned it without intention.

Li Yanran’s face turned slightly red, but she still said, "The Ji Pavilion is weak, and doesn’t have many channels to acquire materials. It’s not right to waste."

Lu Chen smiled and expressed his firm agreement.

Danyang Zi had sealed himself away, fully determined to break through from Nascent Soul to Divinity Transformation.

Meanwhile, the other elders were engaged in internal strife.

But even without internal strife, their strength was not enough to support treasure hunting in the Cultivation World.

After Li Yanran had taken the storage bags and Magic Artifacts, Lu Chen then used fire to burn the bodies to ashes.

"Alright, we should also be going. Let’s meet up with my two friends first; they are hiding in a cave."

Since Lu Chen had decided to travel with Qing Qing and the others, he naturally needed to bring Li Yanran along.

They had met before, and Li Yanran had no objections.

Instead, she noticed from this detail that Lu Chen was a man who valued loyalty, which made her feel a slight fondness for him.

Because Li Yanran was such a person too, except that she valued the Ji Pavilion itself, not any one person within it...

At the same time, Yu Zhibai was also hiding in a safe place, drawing out a talisman from his bosom.

On the brow of the talisman were written two big characters.

"Haotian!"

This was a sound transmission talisman given to him by Kong Wu of the Haotian Sect.
