"Elder Yao, I'm not stopping Young Jiang from avenging those fallen brothers, I just want to tell him, revenge where revenge is due, but Elixir Valley can't be touched for now!"

Supreme Long Huang looked at the Medicine Saint with a face full of helplessness, almost on the verge of tears.

Supreme Long Huang had never felt so aggrieved. He was the acting leader of the Flame Dragon Group, and even when facing Dragon Saint and Elder Long, he had never been so humble, but now, he had no choice but to bow his head.

The Medicine Saint and the others were like a bunch of powder kegs, ready to explode, and they were the kind of people you couldn't fight or threaten. Helpless, Supreme Long Huang could only pretend to be pitiful!

Opening his eyes to glance at Supreme Long Huang, the Medicine Saint said indifferently, "Young Jiang will not attack Elixir Valley!"

"Elder Yao, that boy has a sense of the bigger picture, but right now, given this situation..."

Supreme Long Huang said bitterly, "With things like this, I really can't guarantee the boy can keep his temper in check. Elder Yao, can you guarantee that boy won't impulsively attack Elixir Valley?"

"No guarantees!" The Medicine Saint replied without hesitation.

"You..." Supreme Long Huang looked at the Medicine Saint, frustrated.

The Medicine Saint didn't close his eyes, just looked at Supreme Long Huang expressionlessly.

Supreme Long Huang felt helpless, turned his head to look at Elder Qing, who had the closest relationship with Jiang Chen.

Elder Qing blinked his eyes, looked up at the big chandelier in the living room, a touch of contemplation in his eyes, as if there was some mystery in the chandelier.

Elders Bai and Hei exchanged a glance, imitating Elder Qing, looking at the chandelier, avoiding eye contact with Supreme Long Huang.

"You guys..." Supreme Long Huang was exasperated, leaned back on the sofa, full of frustration.

Rumble!

The sound of a helicopter came through.

Whoosh!

Supreme Long Huang rushed out instantly.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The Medicine Saint and the others were not slow to follow.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

When the Medicine Saint and the others reached the courtyard, everyone in the manor rushed out, gathering in the courtyard.

Click!

The helicopter hovered at an altitude of a hundred meters, the cabin door opened.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Jiang Chen, Yan Hu, Xuan Long, Spirit You, Ying Zi, Wu Qianxun, Elder Ming, and others jumped down from the helicopter, stained with dry blood, landing in front of the crowd.

"Jiang Chen, are you okay?" Ye Jingyi threw herself into Jiang Chen's arms, ignoring the bloodstains, and asked with concern.

Jiang Chen smiled gently at Gong Lin and Yè Yùwǎn who also ran over, then looked down at Ye Jingyi, speaking softly, "I'm fine, it's all the enemy's blood!"

Whew!

The three women, Ye Jingyi, Gong Lin, and Yè Yùwǎn, breathed a sigh of relief.

"All seventeen hidden cultivation sects involved in the attack have been eliminated! I'll go change my clothes first, everyone carry on with your tasks. Elder Yao, wait for me in the main villa's living room."

Jiang Chen glanced at everyone, giving instructions, then looked at the concerned Ye Jingyi and the others, asking, "How's Ling'er?"

"She's much better, but still feeling guilty!" Ye Jingyi sighed, speaking softly.

Jiang Chen nodded, took Ye Jingyi's hand, and headed towards the main villa, as everyone dispersed contentedly.

After changing his clothes and comforting Fu Ling'er, Jiang Chen arrived at the living room.

At this time, apart from the few previous people, Yan Hu, Leng Ming, Mi Jiaro, and some elders like Elder Ming, Wu Qianxun, Li Tianchong were also present.

Supreme Long Huang glanced at Elder Ming and the others, knowing they were here to support Jiang Chen, preventing him and the others from using the Flame Dragon Group to pressure Jiang Chen.

With a wry smile, Supreme Long Huang looked at Jiang Chen, "Young Jiang, did you see? Now everyone sees our Flame Dragon Group as the enemy!"

Jiang Chen said calmly, "If I had been there, Long Wuhun would already be a dead man!"

Supreme Long Huang was stunned for a moment, blinked, and muttered to himself, well! Luckily, you weren't there! Otherwise, we might have really had a fight with you all. With your emotions at the time, I suspect even I wouldn't have been spared!

"Young Jiang, you didn't go to Elixir Valley, did you?" Supreme Long Huang asked cautiously, staring directly at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen gently shook his head, "The Alchemy Competition at Elixir Valley is approaching, there's no rush. On the way back, I thought about everything and found a few suspicious points. Putting them together, I realized I was set up!"

"What suspicious points? What kind of setup?" Supreme Long Huang was momentarily confused, opening his mouth in surprise.

Everyone frowned slightly, turning to look at Jiang Chen.

"When we annihilated those sects, we discovered three things. First, those sects were not sent by Elixir Valley; they indeed acted upon receiving a message leaked from within Elixir Valley, learning that Ling'er was here, and intending to take her back!"

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, speaking gravely, "However, none of the forces knew who leaked the message! And the person who knew Ling'er was here certainly knew Elder Yao was here too, yet those forces were unaware!"

"Exactly!" The Medicine Saint nodded, "They only found out I was here after they arrived!"

"This made me feel that the person who leaked the message intentionally hid their identity and did so with a targeted purpose!"

Jiang Chen continued, "Second, those forces are affiliated sects of Elixir Valley. This affiliation means absolute affiliation, meaning, by wiping them out, I am now at odds with Elixir Valley!"

"Third, none of those sects had any dormant Ancestors, which led me to suspect that the person who leaked the message knew my strength and power, sending those sects for me to wipe out just to have me fall out with Elixir Valley!"

"Why... why would they go to such lengths to have you fall out with Elixir Valley?"

Supreme Long Huang asked puzzledly, "If this person has that much capability, to know that Fu Ling'er is here and make those forces believe it, they must be an important figure within Elixir Valley, and surely someone who often contacts those forces yet never shows themselves. Otherwise, those seventeen sects wouldn't all believe them. So why wouldn't that capable person simply confront you directly?"

"No! Regular contact isn't necessary. Elixir Valley has its own unique methods of conveying messages!" The Medicine Saint shook his head.

"A special kind of elixir?" Jiang Chen asked softly.

The Medicine Saint was slightly taken aback, surprised, "Did you figure it out?"

"No, I didn't spend my spare time interrogating this. When wiping out those sects, I found that most of their sect masters had a hollow elixir on them, and besides having a sealing function with a faint unique fragrance, it served no other purpose. Coupled with your earlier words, that's what made me think of it!"

Jiang Chen explained softly, continuing, "That person went through such trouble to have me fall out with Elixir Valley yet didn't directly oppose me, likely not wanting to actually ignite a fight between me and Elixir Valley, but to make me resent Elixir Valley instead!"
