325 EMERALD WANTED LIST
After some time Huang finally gained consciousness. He couldn’t feel his lower body and as he looked, he could see his abdomen caved in. An incredible amount of pain was induced due to the fracture. He tried to move his body, but the pain almost made him blackout.
It was at that time when he saw a wooden box lying beside him. He tried to reach it and finally managed to open it up. A powerful aroma filled the room, and he felt his body getting better just by inhaling the aroma. He looked inside and found a bunch of pills.
“Such potent medical pills. Why did he give it to me?” Huang tried to reason but ultimately decided to let fate work its way. He picked the pills up and injected one into his body. An immense amount of energy flowed into his body, healing his internal wounds. He picked another one and ate it too.
Finally, after taking in a dozen pills, he found that his abdomen had properly recovered from the injury, and most of his internals had recovered quite a bit. He decided to stop the process and move his body a bit. He then meditated for some time and healed some of his injuries with his own Qi.
The pills which Li Meng had given him were quite potent and he wanted to save some of them for future use, and have the pharmacist t the Hall take a look into it. This potent pill might even prove to be a huge contribution to Hall and he might be promoted despite his failures.
It took him a whole week to recover his breath back to normal. He then decided to leave the Misty-Ridge as all his treasures had been snatched by Li Meng. He made his way out of the Ridge and hurriedly returned to the branch office. When the officer saw the provisional holy child in tattered clothes, they immediately accompanied him into the halls and informed their superiors.
The top echelon decided to first help Huang heal and then asked him to meet them in the main hall.
“Sir Huang, may I know the reason for your pitiful condition?” The Branch leader asked.
“I apologize to have betrayed the expectations of Branch elders and all the members of the branch.” Huang recounted very detail regarding the expedition and how they were ambushed by Li Xuanfa and his group. Since he had made a soul vow, he couldn’t disclose the information about Li Meng.
.....
“The Black Devil church has returned to the central plains. Are you sure about the attackers from Black Devil church?”
“The vice-leader confirmed it in his own words.” The Branch leader decided to inform the main hall about this and asked Huang to carefully recollect and mentioned every detail regarding the incident. Huang did so and reported all the details about the incident.
“I think that your promotion will be halted for the time being.” The Branch leader explained. He was an intermediate Qi Emperor who was responsible for Huang’s evaluation for the promotion to Holy son.
“I might have got my hands on something else which may be able to help my candidacy.” Huang decided to present half of the pills he currently possessed. When the hall master called an alchemist to look at the pills, the alchemist was shocked.
“Sir. This is a miraculous creation. The materials used in it are so balanced that the pill’s potency wouldn’t reduce even after multiple uses by someone. I have been an alchemist for a very long time and never have I come across such a pill. If we could successfully recreate the recipe, the usage of this pill would fundamentally change our strength.”
“I am not even considering the profit we might get in the long term by selling it to the public. I have never seen a product like this. Frost lily is nothing in comparison to this.”
“Can you recreate the recipe?” The hall leader asked in an excited voice.
“I can, but it will take time.” The alchemist replied.
The hall master then looked at Huang and asked. ” Where did you obtain this pill from?”
“I managed to snatch it from one of the enemies,” Huang answered. The Hall master then looked at Huang with an appreciative look and spoke. ” I reinstate your evaluation and declare that your contribution to the hall is enough for you to be crowned as the next holy child.” Huang bowed in respect and accepted the proposal.
“Everyone except the new Holy child can leave this place.” Only Huang and the hall master remained in the hall. He then looked at Huang and said.
“Can you tell me the truth now?” The Hall master asked.
“Unfortunately I can’t,” Huang replied nervously.
“is the matter so complicated that your father doesn’t deserve to know.” The Hall master asked in a kind voice. Turns out he was Huang’s father.
“I am truly in a bind. If I someday manage to overcome the restrictions, I will report the truth to you.” The hall master understood Huang’s character. He knew his son wouldn’t lie to him.
“All the perpetrators will be listed on the Emerald wanted list. You should prepare yourself for the voyage to the main hall. You will leave it to the alchemist to figure out the actual composition of the pill.” Huang bowed and left the hall.
...............................
“You have profited a lot from this trip. Although I couldn’t understand the logic of killing your group. Are you sure that the merchant association will not take revenge?”
They will suspect me, but I will report that it was the black Devil hall who attacked us. By that time it would be a common knowledge since Huang will report them to the branch office too.”
“Are you sure about that?” The keeper was skeptical about Li Meng’s assumptions.
“How else would he explain his situation? He can’t report me. He will make them the scapegoat. It is simple logic. It’s time to check the treasures we obtained.” Li Meng emptied all the rings he had collected during the battle. A massive pile of treasures appeared in front of him.
