Don't blame Gu Yuan for being ruthless; neither of these two father and son are good people, so Gu Yuan has no mental burden in scheming against them.

Especially Cyan Wood True Master, who has plotted against Gu Yuan several times. Even if Gu Yuan has a good temper, he can't endure it!

Therefore, Gu Yuan already has a simple and direct plan in mind for what to do.

First, keep an eye on Ma Feng, and once the time is right, use Ma Feng to lure out Cyan Wood True Master!

By then, naturally, grievances can be aired, and revenge can be exacted.

...

A few days later.

In a private room of a restaurant.

A dark, thin young man knocked on the door, and after receiving permission, he pushed open the door and entered the room.

Inside the room were several people, drinking enthusiastically.

These people, both men and women, all had an extraordinary demeanor and their cultivation wasn't weak; even the least among them was an Innate Martial Master.

If anyone with a bit of sense from the streets were here, they would recognize that these people all had some background.

Some were sons of shopkeepers, others were from cultivation families, disciples of cultivation sects, or even apprentices of famous loose cultivators recently taken in as closed-door disciples.

In the eyes of ordinary martial masters or loose cultivators at Qiongming Market, these people clearly had extraordinary identities and could be regarded as the second generation of Immortals with some status.

However, sitting in the main seat was a barely handsome young man with a pale gold wooden hairpin in his hair, glimmering with faint spiritual light.

The young man was none other than Ma Feng!

The reason he could sit comfortably in the main seat and accept the flattery of these people was his identity—an Inner Sect Disciple of Medicine King Mountain.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Gu Yuan had previously interacted with many people, whether they were True Inheritances of Gu God Sect or Elders from Star River Sword Sect, and the least among his companions was an Inner Sect Disciple of Medicine King Mountain.

It seemed as if Inner Sect Disciples of Medicine King Mountain were as common as cabbage.

But in reality, as the only first-rate Great Immortal Sect in Qinzhou, Medicine King Mountain was regarded as a supreme overlord by other cultivation sects and families.

Even an Inner Sect Disciple, in the eyes of ordinary sects, families, or loose cultivators, had quite a presence!

This was because the backing was too strong, and those who could become Inner Sect Disciples of Medicine King Mountain not only had good innate talent but also received ample resource supplies, with a high chance of forging a Golden Core in the future.

No one dared to easily offend such a person.

So, anyone with a discerning eye could see that these people clearly regarded the young man as the leader, with their words filled with flattery and admiration.

"Young Master!"

The dark, thin young man bowed respectfully.

The private room quickly quieted down, and everyone fell silent.

Ma Feng glanced around and casually asked, "Is it Wang Jin? How's the task I assigned you going?"

"Reporting to Young Master, there has been significant progress."

The dark, thin young man, Wang Jin, hesitated and glanced at the others:

"However..."

"Oh? There's been progress?!"

Ma Feng's eyes brightened with obvious excitement, but noticing Wang Jin's reaction, he frowned, about to speak when someone beside him chimed in:

"Brother Ma, since you have matters to attend to, why don't we get together another day?"

The others quickly caught on and echoed:

"Yes, Brother Ma, you should handle your affairs first. We won't disturb you."

"Farewell, Brother Ma, I'll take my leave first."

Ma Feng naturally stood up and politely tried to retain them for a while. Once everyone left, he sat back in his seat, gave Wang Jin a glance, and said, "What's going on? Tell me."

Wang Jin, although appearing somewhat taciturn, was excellent at getting things done.

"Young Master, it's like this."

Wang Jin bowed and said, "I just received news that someone has spotted the trail of that unusual mouse. It's located in a place outside the city called Liuyun Valley."

"Oh?"

Ma Feng tapped his fingers on the table lightly, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Are you sure it's that unusual mouse with the Treasure Hunting Mouse lineage?"

"I wouldn't dare to lie!"

Wang Jin cupped his fists solemnly.

"Haha, good, very good!"

Ma Feng finally smiled, stood up, and patted Wang Jin's shoulder, "You've done well and earned significant merit. As long as I achieve my goal this time, I won't forget your contributions!"

Wang Jin's face turned red with excitement, and he solemnly declared, "I am willing to give my all for you, Young Master!"

"Hmm, very good."

Ma Feng nodded, then changed his tone, "Who else knows about this?"

Wang Jin understood his implication, a chilling light flickering in his eyes, "Rest assured, Young Master. I've already taken care of some situations. Now, only you and I know this news."

"The others have been silenced."

"There is a spiritual medicine called Cloud Soul Flower in Liuyun Valley, which is a favorite among the rodent-like creatures. It shouldn't leave Liuyun Valley anytime soon."

"As long as we reach there within three days, we can trap this unusual mouse in the valley."

"Well done!"

Ma Feng's smile widened as he waved his hand, "Go pack up, and we'll set off right away!"

"Yes, Young Master!"

After Wang Jin left, Ma Feng couldn't sit still and paced around the private room a few times, in a very good mood.

A few days ago, he accidentally acquired some news.

Someone outside the city had discovered an unusual mouse with a Treasure Hunting Mouse lineage.

He was no stranger to Treasure Hunting Mice, these ancient spirit beasts. Medicine King Mountain, as a Great Alchemy Sect, had a huge demand for spiritual medicines.

Previously, a certain Elder unexpectedly raised an unusual creature with Treasure Hunting Mouse lineage. By relying on this unusual mouse to find various spiritual medicines and rare treasures, the Elder lived a very comfortable life, with abundant cultivation resources.

However, due to some accidents later on, the Elder reached the end of his life, and the unusual mouse he raised also died.

Ma Feng naturally became interested in this unusual mouse.

An unusual mouse with Treasure Hunting Mouse lineage is naturally incomparable to ordinary spirit beasts and demon beasts; the key is that it has the ability to sense various spiritual objects and marvelous treasures, and it's irreplaceable, no matter how many Spirit Stones you offer!

It's true that Ma Feng has a father who is a Golden Core Great Cultivator, and he himself is an Inner Sect Disciple of Medicine King Mountain, with an extraordinary identity, but he neither will nor wants to settle for the status quo.

On the contrary, he harbors greater ambitions!

He not only wants to forge a Golden Core like his father, becoming a Great Cultivator with a long lifespan and vast Divine Techniques but also thinks about achieving the Yin Spirit and even the Yang Spirit Dao Fruit!

He has even fantasized about becoming an undying Primordial Spirit True Immortal.

And recently, his fellow disciple Gu Yuan has been in the limelight several times in succession, making him quite envious and jealous.

He wishes he could kill him and take his place!

Obviously merely a disciple who recently entered Medicine King Mountain, yet now he is renowned worldwide, notorious, and when people around him mention the name Gu Yuan, they lower their voices.

Even he, this fellow senior brother, is overshadowed and pales in comparison.
