C384 Abandonment of Medicinal Herbs

Ever since Nie Zhen had appeared, Zeng Jue's body had been trembling. Initially, it was out of fear, but now it was out of anger.

Nie Zhen did not think highly of himself. Standing in front of him, he did not even look at him, and when Chen Sui saw Nie Zhen, the relaxed expression of "this wave is as stable as a dog" was also constantly humiliating the little dignity left behind by Zeng Jue.

The mocking laughter from the surroundings trampled Zeng Jue's dignity to the point where not a drop of it remained …

Those expressions full of mockery and ridicule continuously stimulated Zeng Jue's rationality …

"Nie Zhen!" Chen Sui and I are fighting over Wu Yang Snow Melting Grass, what has it got to do with you?! You're just a dog holding a mouse, why are you meddling in other people's business?! " Finally, Zeng Jue was thoroughly enraged, almost shouting at Nie Zhen at the top of his lungs, just to protect his already small dignity.

"Oh …" The surrounding crowd all expressed their admiration for Zeng Jue's heroic actions. In front of this demon king, Zeng Jue actually dared to curse directly. This was not something that an ordinary person could do.

It must be known that Nie Zhen was not an ordinary disciple. He was not only the number one genius in Duobao Sect, he was also the future successor of the Duobao Sect sect master. He was also in terms of Preparative Pill Sage, the kind of person where even the sect masters would request others to refine pills!

If such a person really beat Zeng Jue up, then so be it. However, no one would stand up for Zeng Jue, not to mention Zeng Jue took the initiative to scold him.

"Um... "Now, I can be sure that Zeng Jue has really gone mad …"

"This fellow is seeking death, yet he doesn't pick the right time..." He forgot how he was beaten up by Nie Zhen back then, right … "

Tch, are you stupid? They were all courting death, how could they care about time? When will you not be a dead man?! "

"Initially, Nie Zhen had almost no spiritual energy in his body and could easily beat him like a punching bag. Now, Nie Zhen is in his prime and his cultivation has broken through a level. I think this will be a humiliating battle..."

"Do you think Nie Zhen will get himself killed later?" A Jiugong Sect disciple asked worriedly.

"It's very possible. How could Nie Zhen be a polite person? What? You and Zeng Jue are even friends? "

"No!" "I'm thinking that if we find a place for Zeng Jue to bury his corpse, then we might as well fulfill our duties as fellow disciples..."

Zeng Jue's head was filled with dark lines. These people really didn't mind if there was a big commotion. He only blurted it out because he was angry. When it came to their mouths, the place where he buried his body was about to be found.

Actually, Zeng Jue didn't even think about it. Previously, when he had a conflict with Chen Sui, this group of people didn't think much of it. How could they change into a single person now?

As for Nie Zhen, when he was questioned by Zeng Jue, he turned around leisurely. When he saw Zeng Jue, his eyes suddenly lit up as he laughed, "Yo! Isn't this Zeng Jue! Long time no see! Your injuries have recovered? "

Zeng Jue's eyelids jumped from Nie Zhen's call. He cursed at Nie Zhen in his heart. The injury from last time? Didn't you cause the injury last time?! Why weren't you so polite when you were punching people?!

However, Zeng Jue had already said those harsh words. If he were to commit a crime now, it would be even more vulgar than before. Zeng Jue could only endure it, even if he had to force himself.

Immediately, Zeng Jue shouted at Nie Zhen: "Nie Zhen! Don't you dare try this on me! We'll settle the score another day. Today, this is between Chen Sui and me, don't meddle in it! "

Zeng Jue had already used all of his strength to say this, and the moment he finished speaking, he started to pant heavily.

Nie Zhen took two steps towards Zeng Jue as if strolling leisurely in the courtyard. Then, he smiled at Zeng Jue and said, "How can this be your problem? It's also my problem, so it's normal for me to interfere."

"Nie Zhen, fart! What does this have to do with you?! Or do you want to cause me trouble?! Let me tell you, the Spirit Medicines Market of the Jiugong Sect is not a place for you to behave atrociously! " Zeng Jue was furious and said with a stern voice.

In Zeng Jue's eyes, Nie Zhen was just messing around. What Zeng Jue did not know was that his words had slapped his own face, because he had also come here to cause trouble for Chen Sui.

"Heh heh... "Sir Zeng might not know, but normal people know that for a pill refiner like me, when I have nothing to do, I usually buy some herbs to increase my stock to avoid any undue need. Moreover, I also need a large amount of herbs to cultivate my pill refining skills, and today, I just happened to pass by, so this stalk of Sun Melting Snow Grass is suitable for me to use as the main ingredient for a pill. So, I'm here to purchase this batch of herbs, so it's naturally my business."

"This …" In the face of Nie Zhen's argument, Zeng Jue was actually unable to refute it for a moment.

Apothecaries did often buy medicinal herbs. Sometimes, they would even buy a lot of them at once because they would consume a huge amount of medicinal herbs while cultivating. If they bought less, could it be that they would have to refine them halfway before buying more?

However, in the blink of an eye, Zeng Jue already knew that Nie Zhen's words were an excuse.

[Don't even mention how coincidental this matter is, you, Nie Zhen, really need this herb. Nie Zhen's mocking expression and the sneer that he intentionally made trouble for us is simply undisguised. Those words are clearly an excuse!]

Zeng Jue was trembling with anger. With a trembling voice, he said, "Nie Zhen, you made up your mind to obstruct me today, didn't you?"2

Nie Zhen then used the tone that Zeng Jue had when he spoke to Chen Sui: "Today, I'm going to order this stalk of Sun Melting Snow Grass. What can you do to me?!"

"Puchi!" Someone suddenly laughed out loud, followed by continuous laughter. Even Chen Sui, who had a serious expression on his face, shook his head and revealed a helpless smile.

The conversation between Nie Zhen and Zeng Jue was simply a reprint of the conversation between Zeng Jue and Chen Sui. Even the words and tone remained unchanged.

The laughter from all around the place was like slapping Zeng Jue in the face, slapping him so hard that there was no sound of slapping him.

However, Zeng Jue realized that he really couldn't do anything about Nie Zhen. If one were to talk about first come first serve, wouldn't the final ingredient still belong to Chen Sui? Chen Sui arrived before him.

If the highest bidder had to win, Zeng Jue knew that he wouldn't have the capital. He still vaguely remembered the fear of being controlled by Wu Tie with money in the Auction back then …

Just as Zeng Jue's face turned green and white, but he was speechless, Nie Zhen shouted to the surrounding people who were watching the show: "Huh? "According to the process, shouldn't someone say …"

Instantly, certain clever Jiugong Sect disciples seemed to have understood something, and shouted towards Nie Zhen and Zeng Jue: "Or else … Why don't you fight? Whoever wins this Martial Yang Melting Grass will get it?! "

Another disciple said while trying his best to hold back his laughter, "Cough cough … "Not bad, not bad, all cultivators use the martial path. Anyways, no one knows who this medicinal ingredient belongs to, so we might as well fight …"

"Hahahaha!" Finally, the surrounding people could no longer hold it in and started laughing like thunder. They looked at Zeng Jue with eyes full of mockery.

Zeng Jue versus Nie Zhen? Just by thinking with your toes, you know what the result is.

"You, you, you … …. Nie Zhen, what do you want?! " Zeng Jue's voice was trembling. He did not expect the situation to develop in such a way. This was completely different from what he originally thought!

Nie Zhen cracked his wrists while cracking his knuckles. At the same time, he smiled and said to Zeng Jue, "Don't worry, Brother Ceng. I guarantee that this competition will be open and fair. I don't know if anyone will be willing to make a bet?"

"I'll open it!" Let me open it! Let's just bet on who wins and who loses, Senior Brother Nie and Senior Brother Ceng! " At this time, those Jiugong Sect disciples who did not mind the trouble spoke out excitedly.

Just as he finished speaking, a disciple on the other side retorted, "Are you stupid!? Was there even a need to place a bet? It should be a bet... "After the competition, whether Zeng Jue is alive or dead, that's the only way to gamble!"

"It's not right, I think it's entirely up to Nie Zhen. It's too easy to cheat, what if he also takes part in the wager …"

At this moment, Zeng Jue's face was as ugly as ever. He never thought that those people would already be discussing whether he would die or not before he accepted the challenge.

Although Zeng Jue also wanted face, but he was not stupid. His strength was already weaker than Nie Zhen's, and now that Nie Zhen's momentum had reached its peak, at this time, if Zeng Jue was to fight with Nie Zhen, he would be smashed into a ball by Nie Zhen in the first round.

Zeng Jue looked pale. He looked around at the laughing crowd and then looked at the eager Nie Zhen. He felt like he was a clown right now. He was jumping up and down in front of everyone but got ridicule.

"Nie Zhen... Even though you want to challenge me, you came all the way here, and are my guest. As the second disciple of the Jiugong Sect, I naturally cannot lose face for the host family … In any case, he will be entering the Eternal Relic in three days anyway. Even if there is a fight or something, at worst, there will just be someone higher in the Eternal Relic. Zeng Jue was already at a loss for words. However, everyone had heard what he said clearly. He was just trying to be cowardly, yet he had to give himself a way out.

"Phew …" "Then, what exactly is the value of this medicinal herb? Hurry up and tell me!" Nie Zhen said impatiently.

To waste so much of his precious time for this idiot, Nie Zhen was a little angry. To be honest, Nie Zhen really hoped that Zeng Jue could accept the challenge … … This way, after three days of searching for Eternal Relic, Chen Sui might be able to take Zeng Jue's place …

"This... "Even though this medicinal herb is good, I don't have to have it. Since you all want it, I will have the beauty of an adult then..." When Zeng Jue said this, even he himself felt embarrassed. Previously, he wanted to snatch Chen Sui's herb, but now he said this with such thick skin!
