Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Unexpected Harvest_1
After hanging up the phone with Su Chengyu, Lin Zhengxun immediately called Hong Zhen Ting.
"Hong Ye, I have arranged a meeting with Su Chengyu. At noon, at the Oasis Hotel," Lin Zhengxun said.
"It seems that Su Chengyu trusts you quite a bit, well done," Hong Zhen Ting replied with great joy.
"He initially refused, but I lied about having the hundred-year-old Wild Mountain Ginseng he needs, and then he agreed to the meeting."
Since Lin Zhengxun made a choice, he absolutely wouldn’t hold back, and fully cooperated with Hong Zhen Ting to kill Su Chengyu.
Hong Zhen Ting immediately informed Ren Qianzhong and asked him to make arrangements, setting up a certain death trap.
"Ren Brother, since you’re personally taking action, there’s no need to inform Li Yuancang," said Hong Zhen Ting.
"Are you still suspicious of him?" Ren Qianzhong laughed.
"The person who saved Su Chengyu and Su Xiaoxiao has never been found. Now we can certainly say it wasn’t the Lin family’s doing, so naturally Li Yuancang is a suspect. Additionally, to avoid leaks, don’t tell the rest about the specifics of the mission. This time, we must slaughter this youngster."
Hong Zhen Ting was very cautious and sworn to kill Su Chengyu.
"Relax, he managed to escape from me once, but he definitely won’t escape a second time. I’ll go arrange it right away."
Ren Qianzhong immediately went to arrange his men, setting up an ambush at the Oasis Hotel. The moment Su Chengyu walks in, he will be trapped with no chance of escape.
After Su Chengyu hung up the phone, he did not rush back to the city, but continued to search around Mount Guniu. Just as he was about to give up the search and go home, his Divine Sense suddenly noticed a Purple Wisteria Vine imbued with spiritual essence within a rock crevice on the cliffside.
This cliff was very high, extremely steep, and covered with moss. It was nearly impossible to climb bare-handed, which explains why no one discovered it till now.
Overjoyed, Su Chengyu took out the Dragon Slayer Sword from his storage bag, boosted his energy, and executed Qinggong, leaping up towards the cliff.
The cliff was over fifty meters high, too much for Su Chengyu to climb in one breath. He stabbed the Dragon Slayer Sword into the cliffside, the hard rock easily pierced like tofu.
The Dragon Slayer Sword really deserved its reputation as a divine weapon. Even though the Needle Method Rune had been damaged, it could still easily slice through metal.
Using this method, Su Chengyu climbed up. There were two protruding rocks next to the vine where he could stand. He then deftly used the sharp Dragon Slayer Sword to excavate the Purple Wisteria Vine from the crevice.
The vine was quite large and had better quality than the one the old man was selling on the street. It was probably nearly two hundred years old, quite a rare find.
Just as Su Chengyu was about to leave after putting the vine into his storage bag, he heard a rather large noise from above. When he looked up, he was taken aback.
A gigantic python was sliding down from the cliff. It was thicker than a water barrel, its body shiny black covered with scales.
This was Su Chengyu’s first encounter with such a python – the cold gleam in its triangular eyes struck fear in anyone who saw it.
With its tail hanging on a large tree on the cliff, the python lunged at Su Chengyu, revealing its sharp venomous fangs.
Su Chengyu, not daring to fight the python on the cliff, quickly withdrew his Dragon Slayer Sword and retreated. The python pursued down the cliff. Surprisingly, it traversed the slick cliffside with ease.
After Su Chengyu landed, the python quickly followed. It was only then he noticed tentacle-like suction cups on the python’s underbelly, explaining how it could move across the cliff so easily.
In Su Chengyu’s hands was the Dragon Slayer Sword, forming a solid defense against the python. However, juxtaposed with the python stretching several dozen meters long, Su Chengyu’s body seemed somewhat tiny.
"I may not yet be able to slay a dragon, but I shall start with slaying this snake today!"
Su Chengyu caressed the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hands, mana surging. The sword, which had been untouched in battle and thirsted for blood for quite some time, conveyed a robust sentiment.
The python dashed towards Su Chengyu with ferocious intensity, knocking down numerous shrubs in its path. Su Chengyu leaped onto a large tree, which was then snapped in half by the python’s forceful attack. Its power was beyond imagination.
The strength of this python surpassed that of Ren Qianzhong, a third rank Grandmaster.
Su Chengyu landed on the back of the python and thrust the Dragon Slayer Sword into its body. Immediately, blood spurted and the python writhed in agony. It tried to shake Su Chengyu off with its hissing voice and violent movements.
Thanks to Su Chengyu’s agility and his divine weapon that could breach the python’s scale armor defense, he gained the upper hand. The python was soon riddled with wounds inflicted by Su Chengyu.
Although this python was not a true beast, it was of beast lineage. Had it continued its cultivation in the mountains for several more decades, its bloodline could mutate, and it would transform into a true beast, by then an adversary even a great Grandmaster might struggle with.
The python’s scale armor boasted strong defense power that ordinary weapons couldn’t even scratch, let alone pierce.
Unfortunately, the python met with Su Chengyu.
Without the Dragon Slayer Sword in Su Chengyu’s hands today, he would have to resign himself to a humiliating flight. Even a great Grandmaster would shudder at the python’s formidable strength.
The python, realizing after successive injuries that Su Chengyu’s sword was powerful, twisted its body towards the cliff to escape.
"Trying to run off? Stay where you are!"
Su Chengyu took a leap, and with a flash of blue glint from the Dragon Slayer Sword, he struck the python’s vital spot, piercing its heart with a single blow and ending its life.
The python’s heavy body tumbled down, crashing with a loud rumble and leaving the area in ruins due to the onslaught.
"Good thing I have the Dragon Slayer Sword, or I might not have made it out of the snake’s mouth today."
The snake’s gallbladder was an extremely valuable ingredient that could be used in alchemy. This python had likely lived for at least a few tens or hundreds of years. Its gallbladder would be even more valuable than the Purple Wuteng he had just dug.
After opening up the python and removing its gallbladder, Su Chengyu hurried down the mountain.
This journey had been quite fruitful. Apart from the python’s gallbladder and the Purple Wuteng, Su Chengyu also harvested some other medicinal ingredients, all of which were useful for alchemy.
The python’s gallbladder was an unexpected surprise but its value was immeasurable. If included as an ingredient in the brewing of the Heavenly Pill, the resultant medicinal power would far surpass the previous batch of Heavenly Pill, potentially aiding in his breakthrough to the sixth layer of Qi Refining Stage.
Of course, the current medicinal ingredients for the Heavenly Pill were still insufficient. The 100-year-old Ginseng that Lin Zhengxun mentioned was particularly important in the formation.
Su Chengyu drove back to the city.
Meanwhile, the Oasis Hotel was already a ticking time bomb with Ren Qianzhong and Hong Zhen Ting’s subordinates lying in ambush at the overview restaurant on the thirty-second floor.
This location was the perfect trap to kill Su Chengyu, the height of the thirty-second floor was daunting, even for Ren Qianzhong, who would not risk jumping off without dire consequences.
In addition to the over twenty elite members from Hong Zhen Ting’s gang, once Su Chengyu entered the hotel and walked into the restaurant, it would become his grave!
