Although Qiangwei had been staying in the Provincial City, she was well aware of the terrifying weight carried by the three words ”Medicine King Valley.”

She couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement,

”Celestial King, you really are ambitious!”

This was a heartfelt sentiment; anyone in Qiangwei’s shoes would have thought the same.

Qin Tuo, however, just gave a faint smile and said nothing.

Long Wu, who was standing to the side, couldn’t help but speak up.

”Miss Qiangwei, a lot happened at the Martial Arts Tournament. There are things you don’t know...”

Then, Long Wu recounted everything that had happened at the Martial Arts Tournament to Qiangwei, scene by scene.

Qiangwei was completely stunned as she listened, her beautiful, wide eyes constantly betraying her astonishment!

After hearing everything, her admiration for Qin Tuo grew to the point of utter reverence.

”Celestial King, you’re truly incredible! I can’t believe even Medicine King Valley had no choice but to bow to you!”

Qiangwei exclaimed, her words coming from the bottom of her heart.

Qin Tuo smiled and waved his hand dismissively.

”Alright, Qiangwei. You should go and take care of that matter now.”

Right now, Qin Tuo’s main concern was the matter of the medicinal herbs.

He needed the herbs from Medicine King Valley to refine higher-level medicinal pills and advance his cultivation realm.

Moreover, Qin Tuo was worried that Medicine King Valley might actually go back on their word.

Therefore, he had to send someone to press them as soon as possible!

Qiangwei nodded and left at once, afraid of delaying Qin Tuo’s business.

After Qiangwei left, Long Wu also prepared to take his leave.

Qin Tuo thought for a moment, then couldn’t help but add an instruction.

”Long Wu, for the time being, I need you to protect those two girls for me. Understand?”

Long Wu didn’t dare to be negligent and immediately agreed.

Although Chen Man Ni had a powerful Body-Protecting Jade Pendant on her, Qin Tuo still sent people to protect her in secret, just to be safe.

Qin Tuo knew that neither Liu Tao nor Zhu Zifeng would let the matter rest.

To get the Jade Pendant, they would definitely make another move!

He also understood the kind of power the Zhu and Liu Families wielded in the Capital City. Their next move would surely be earth-shattering, so he had to be on guard and could not afford to be complacent.

Now alone in the villa, Qin Tuo suddenly shook his head, sighed, and muttered to himself:

”Sigh. No matter how many herbs I have, they will eventually run out. It seems I must find a substitute.”

Then, Qin Tuo couldn’t help but think about Spirit Stones.

’If I had enough Spirit Stones,’ he thought, ’I would have an inexhaustible supply of Spiritual Qi. Then I wouldn’t be passively limited by medicinal herbs like I am now.’

Thinking of this, Qin Tuo gave Huang Junkai a call.

”Hello, Mr. Qin!”

Huang Junkai’s face lit up with joy when he received Qin Tuo’s call.

He had heard some things about the Martial Arts Tournament from Huang Junchang, which made him hold Qin Tuo in even higher regard.

Qin Tuo said,

”Young Master Huang, I’m planning to make a trip to Hongshan tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Huang Junkai was stunned for a moment, then nodded without hesitation.

”Of course, Mr. Qin. I’ll come to your place tomorrow, and we can go together!”

Qin Tuo had previously expressed his intention to go to Hongshan, and Huang Junkai had been waiting.

Besides, how could Huang Junkai bear to give up such a good opportunity to get closer to Qin Tuo?

...

「Late at night, at the site of the Qingshui Town Martial Arts Tournament.」

The successive bouts during the day had left the fighting ring in tatters.

The area was empty and desolate, and from time to time, a chilling wind would gust from the distance!

Suddenly, four dark shadows appeared silently in front of the ring.

They were four mysterious old men dressed in long black robes, gathered together and scanning the entire ring.

Suddenly, one of the old men couldn’t help but remark,

”It seems the fighting during the day was incredibly fierce to have destroyed the ring to this extent!”

The other three old men couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

The ring itself was extremely sturdy; for it to be damaged this badly was a testament to the ferocity of the battle.

Then, one of the Elders urged impatiently,

”Grand Elder, shall we begin?”

The white-haired old man next to him, the Grand Elder, nodded. He took an ancient bronze mirror from his robes and placed it on the ground.

Next, the four Elders surrounded the mirror, taking up positions in the four cardinal directions and simultaneously chanting a Magic Spell.

Streams of incomparably profound power quickly floated out from the four of them and converged into the bronze mirror.

Soon, the bronze mirror reacted!

A dazzling radiance suddenly flared from it, and then, as if ripples were spreading across water, blurry images began to appear on its surface.

Then, the images grew clearer and clearer, revealing a replay of everything that had happened on the ring during the day.

On the ring, an arrogant Zhao Kai was seen defeating all challengers from every direction.

Next, Huang Junchang entered the ring but was defeated without any suspense!

Then, Qin Tuo finally made his appearance...

At this point, the four Elders’ eyes narrowed, and they stared intently, not daring to blink.

They carefully watched every single one of Qin Tuo’s moves, afraid of missing any crucial detail.

When they saw Qin Tuo, in a fit of rage, kill Liao Feihu with a single blow, the four Elders’ emotions clearly fluctuated violently.

Then they saw even Liu Tao forced to swallow his pride before Qin Tuo, and the four Elders couldn’t help but be deeply shocked once more.

The images in the bronze mirror finally faded, and the four old men fell into a long, deep silence.

The Grand Elder was the first to speak, his voice ancient and weary.

”This Qin Tuo is simply terrifying. He can instantly kill even an Eighth Grade Grandmaster. This level of strength is beyond our previous imagination!”

Another Elder nodded and then said,

”I think this Qin Tuo has likely reached the peak beyond a Ninth Grade Inner Strength Martial Artist—a legendary Grandmaster of Inner Strength!”

Upon hearing this, the hearts of the other three couldn’t help but pound fiercely.

They all understood what a terrifying existence a Grandmaster of Inner Strength was in the world of Martial Artists!

However, the Grand Elder thought for a moment, then shook his head and said,

”But this fellow doesn’t seem like a pure Martial Artist. Moreover, he left behind no aura of a Grandmaster of Inner Strength. This whole affair is exceedingly strange.”

He frowned, lost in deep thought.

The other three Elders also felt that something was amiss.

But the Third Elder beside him suddenly thought of something and quickly asked,

”Grand Elder, could this Qin Tuo be a Warlock, just like us?”

The Grand Elder, however, shook his head without a second thought.
