Qi Yuanzhan got anxious, but he tried his best to hide his panic. “Muyan, don’t listen to her nonsense. How can I allow such a thing to happen? If someone in the villa uses Yahui Grass to replace Bloodred Grass, wouldn’t that be slapping our signboard?”
Xue Fanxin wouldn’t let him get away. “Of course you don’t use Yahui Grass in every healing pill, especially the pills provided to the four great clans and other powerful people. But the same can’t be said for ordinary people. After all, there is a limited number of people with power. You sold inferior fake pills to those small fries and extorted their money, but you made them walk down the path of death. Your Blue Sea Villa can really do such a heartless thing!”
“Xue Fanxin, don’t slander people. You said that our Blue Sea Villa uses Yahui Grass to replace Bloodred Grass. Do you have evidence? If you don’t, cease your nonsense.”
“Isn’t it simple if you want evidence?” Xue Fanxin cleared a table and stood on it. She shouted at the crowd, “I want to ask everyone, has anyone in your family eaten the Blue Sea Villa’s healing pill? When they were hurt the first time, their injuries clearly improved, but upon the second time, even a small injury deteriorated, leading to the patient’s death?”
Hearing Xue Fanxin’s words, everyone started to recall.
There were at least ten thousand people present, and it was not just that. More or less, there were relatives and friends who had taken the Blue Sea Villa’s healing pills, so they quickly stood out and spoke.
“There really is such a thing. Wang Hu from next door was heavily wounded in a fight. His father used half his life’s savings to buy a healing pill from the Blue Sea Villa. After he took the pill, he indeed recovered, but half a year later, he fought again. This time, he was only lightly cut, and it was on his arm. But strangely, he died the next day because his injuries were too heavy.”
“My father also took the healing pill from the Blue Sea Villa. His condition suddenly worsened and he died the second time he was injured.”
“My son too…”
“My… my husband is the same…”
As more and more people shared their encounters, the truth was already self-evident.
To commoners who did not know anything about pills, there would not be so many similar coincidences. This meant that Xue Fanxin’s claim was true.
To alchemists who knew medicinal pills, such signs were proof that the Blue Sea Villa’s healing pills used Yahui Grass. It was a huge taboo in the alchemy world, a humiliation to any organization.
“It’s not like this, it’s not like this. No, it’s not…” Qi Yuanzhan tried to explain, but the voices of the crowd increased and became higher and higher. No one heard what he said.
If word got out that they had used Yahui Grass, the reputation of the Blue Sea Villa would be finished, and so would the Blue Sea Villa.
Some of the pills in the Blue Sea Villa indeed used Yahui Grass. Furthermore, they were all sold to itinerant cultivators or ordinary people. Even if such people really died, they would not cause any waves.
The cost of Bloodred Grass was too high. If it was replaced with Yahui Grass, the profits would increase by a hundred times!
However, he had never expected Xue Fanxin to expose this matter.
Qi Yuanzhan could not explain himself. He felt an intense gaze beside him, so he looked up and saw that Xiao Muyan was glaring at him fiercely. “Muyan, it’s not like that. Xue Fanxin is slandering us. She’s smearing the Blue Sea Villa.”
“That’s also easy to prove.” Xue Fanxin looked at the crowd and asked, “May I ask who has the Blue Sea Villa’s healing pills on them? I’m willing to trade two healing pills for one of the Blue Sea Villa’s healing pills.”
One for two… Who would want to miss such a good thing?
“I have a healing pill from the Blue Sea Villa.”
“I have one on me too.”
“I also have one.”
“Alright, alright, alright. Bring them all. Anyone who has the Blue Sea Villa’s healing pills, bring them all.” Xue Fanxin quickly got quite a few healing pills from the Blue Sea Villa. She handed a few of them to Xiao Muyan and said coldly, “Xiao Muyan, you’re also an alchemist. You should be able to distinguish the ingredients, right? Are you willing to be a fair and just person?”
She had seen everything when Xiao Muyan questioned Qi Yuanzhan just now and was certain that the Yahui Grass had nothing to do with him. Furthermore, he had a sense of justice. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so angry about Yahui Grass.
Having a sense of justice meant that this person could still be saved.
Actually, most humans were quite good. It was just that their personalities and tempers were different, which easily aroused conflicts.
She could not assume that a person was bad just because she had a conflict with him. This made no sense.
Xiao Muyan glanced at Xue Fanxin and then took the pills to study them. With just a simple sniff, he could confirm that a few of the pills did contain Yahui Grass. Hence, he cast an angry gaze at Qi Yuanzhan. “The Blue Sea Villa has really disappointed me.”
Qi Yuanzhan originally thought that since Xiao Muyan was from the Blue Sea Villa, even if he realized that there was something wrong with those pills, he would not expose him. Who knew…
This damned Xiao Muyan. Did he not know that doing this would put them in a desperate spot?
“Muyan, this concerns the reputation of the Blue Sea Villa. Don’t talk nonsense! I know you really want to learn that acupuncture technique from Xue Fanxin, but you can’t push the Blue Sea Villa down for your own selfish reasons!” Qi Yuanzhan still braced himself and endured. He regretted provoking Xue Fanxin.
However, this matter was all caused by Xiao Muyan, and in the end, Xiao Muyan… was really an ingrate.
“Do you think I can protect the reputation of the Blue Sea Villa by lying today?” Xiao Muyan said bluntly, “If you use too much Yahui Grass, you’ll be discovered sooner or later. Although the Tongxuan Realm is remote, people from the higher-ups still come from time to time. Can you guarantee that this matter will never be discovered? You’ve already harmed so many people, yet you still want to continue?”
“You…” Qi Yuanzhan revealed a furious expression, along with killing intent. In the end, he really could not control his emotions and lost his rationality, wanting to kill Xue Fanxin.
A person suddenly flew out and stopped him. What shocked him was that he was none other than the Deputy Master of the Blue Sea Villa, Zhu Hai.
