short knife against her neck.In his view, although the other party was powerful, he still had hostages in his hands, which could ultimately be used as bargaining chips.Ye Bufan sneered coldly: "If yo...Du Ruhui frowned: "Ye Bufan, this name sounds familiar"

Zhang Song said, "Last time we came to investigate, we mentioned this person. Due to Miss Luo's relationship, there is some resentment between him and the second master."

Du Ruhui's face was gloomy. The Du family had lost two core members in a row, both of whom were connected to this person. This was rather unusual.

He looked at Du Gang: "What's the matter with the conflict you just mentioned Why do we have to pay so much money from our treasure pavilion"

"I just found out about this as well, I'm not sure of the details. If Elder wants to know, I can immediately summon the person who knows and ask them."

Du Gang wasn't really clear about the situation. He investigated all around but found no clues. Finally, he heard about this matter and took it as a finished achievement to hand in.

Du Ruhui said, "Bring him over. I want to see what's going on."

"Yes!"

Du Gang agreed and walked out. Zhang Laifu was dead, and the experts sent by the Du family disappeared without a trace. In the end, he could only bring that female waitress over.

"Have seen Elder!"

The female attendant's face was full of fear.

"Don't be afraid, just tell me whatever I ask." Du Ruhui said, "What exactly happened between that Ye kid and the Ju Bao Pavilion Tell me the truth, not a single word left out."

"Should you dare utter a lie, I shall instantly chop off your head."

"Yes!"

That waitress had never seen such an imposing presence before, her whole body trembling with fear. She stammered and quickly began to speak.

Under Du Ruhui's pressure, she did not dare to hide anything and recounted the events from beginning to end, including Zhang Laifu swindling Ye Bufan of five hundred million gold coins.

At this moment, Luo Yuntai beside him put down the teacup in his hand and spoke, "Elder Du, as someone from the Jubao Pavilion, you actually covet other people's deposits. It seems that your Du family can do anything!"

He is a member of the Luo family, belonging to the Great Elder. The Great Elder and the elder from the Du family do not get along with each other.

Besides, he is Luo Yudie's uncle. Before coming here, Luo Yudie repeatedly urged him to take care of Ye Bufan.

If there wasn't a suitable opportunity, it would be hard to say anything. But now that the opportunity is right in front of him, he naturally won't miss it.

Du Ruhui, however, didn't care about these things. He pretended not to hear Luo Yuntai's mockery and said to the female attendant again: "You mean that boy, who found three counterfeit items in a row and then took away our Jubaoge's 9.2 billion gold coins."

"Yes, that's right!"

Luo Yuntian said again: "I will report this matter truthfully after I go back. How come your Du family only managed it for so many days, and such a big thing happened"

"Selling counterfeit goods at Jubao Pavilion, isn't this going to ruin our Jubao Pavilion's thousand-year reputation"

Du Ruhui's face was somber. Faced with the other person's mockery, he had nothing to say. In his heart, he secretly cursed Du Bin as a fool for even being able to do such a thing.

"Lao Luo, the current issue isn't about assigning blame, but rather focusing on quickly apprehending the perpetrator."

Luo Yuntian said, "You're right, the most important thing now is to find the murderer. But the key is that this Ye Bufan doesn't look like a person who would commit murder at all."

Du Ruhui said, "How do you say that Now the only one who has a grudge against Jubao Pavilion is him. He naturally has the biggest suspicion of doing it."

Luoyuntian chuckled: "Elder Du, you're wrong about this."

Although the little guy with the surname Ye had a bit of a conflict with the Treasure Pavilion, think about it, if you were in his shoes and suddenly took away 9.2 billion gold coins, would you come back to cause trouble

"If I wasn't an idiot, I would have left with the money immediately. How could I possibly commit murder Isn't that insane"

Du Ruhai also felt that the other party made sense, but twice things happened, and both times they were related to Ye Bufan. No matter what, it would make him suspicious.

He told Du Gang, “Send someone immediately to find out where Ye left after leaving the Ju Bao Pavilion, what he did, and if there was an opportunity for him to make a move”

"Elder, I've already sent someone to investigate. I believe we'll have results soon."

As soon as Du finished speaking, a subordinate rushed in from outside.

"Elder, Young Master, the matter has been investigated."

Du Gang said, "Tell me quickly, where did Ye Bufan go after he left"

That person said, "Ye Bufan left not long ago and returned to Jùbǎo Gē, purchasing some medicinal herbs, then left here and went to the nearby Hé Míng Tea House to drink tea and listen to music until it was almost dusk before leaving."

"You're back again." Du Ruhui said with a gloomy expression. "Are you sure you haven't made a mistake"

"I assure you, I have thoroughly investigated the matter."

After he finished speaking, he pointed at the female attendant beside him. “Ye Bufan returned to Jubao Pavilion, and she was the one who received him.”

The female attendant quickly nodded and said, "That's right. He said he was missing some medicinal herbs and bought some more here. He left about half an hour ago. I followed him the whole time."

Du Gang's subordinate said again, "I also asked about the teahouse. There were many people there at the time, who all saw clearly that Ye Bufan never left, and he didn't even go to the restroom."

"This…"

Du Ruhui immediately frowned. If that were the case, the other party wouldn't have had a chance to make a move.

Then he said again: "Whatever happens, that boy took so many gold coins from our treasure pavilion. Hurry up and send people to catch him back."

"Elder Du, are you crazy"

Luo Yuntian immediately stood up to stop him, "Although that kid extorted a large sum of money from our Ju Bao Ge, he also earned it through his skills. He pointed out our flaws."

If our products hadn't had problems, they wouldn't have received such a hefty compensation.

If we were to attack him now, and word got out, what would become of the Ju Bao Ge's reputation What would become of our golden signboard

That's why, for both public and private reasons, this person cannot be touched.

"This..."

In fact, Du Ruhai understood this principle as well. It's just that he had a lot of anger with no outlet, which made him lose his composure.

He snorted coldly and called out to Du Gang again: “Hurry up and check for me again. You must get that person behind the scenes for me, I want to cut him into a thousand pieces!”

Ye Bufan spent the entire afternoon drinking tea at the teahouse, casually enjoying the songs of this era.

The teahouse singers, while not as flashy as the pop stars on Earth, are more authentic and quite pleasant to listen to.

As evening approached, he glanced at the time and realized it was almost time to leave. He then departed from the teahouse and returned to Lingxiao Academy.

After returning, he immediately sought out a quiet room, took out his pill furnace and began refining pills.

At this moment, he had all the medicinal herbs he needed, and his pill-making speed was also very fast. After about half an hour, a furnace of Guiding Meridian Pills flew out and landed in the prepared jade bottle.

Then came the Kun Cheng Dan, which also took half an hour to refine successfully, yielding nine high-grade pills in total.

Ye Bufan looked at the two bottles of pills in his hand and suddenly remembered the Broken Barrier Pill from the Ju Baoge.

At the time, it was said to be a third-order pill. What order were these two pills he had refined

He obtained the inheritance of the ancient medical sect, and he had no difficulty refining any kind of pill. He also never had a concept of grades, and was unaware of the grading system for pills on the Kunlun Continent.

In terms of hierarchy, the inheritance of ancient medical practice surpasses that of the Dan medicine inheritance on Kunlun Continent by a significant margin, to the point where they are not even comparable.

Then the question arises, where does one's own heritage truly come from

Is the Gu Yi Men an ancient school from Earth, or is it from a higher plane of existence, or perhaps even the legendary fairy realmonghuang was because the old man was truly a good person, and he had done his best to stop the Nine Dragons Island just now.Moreover, he didn't suffer any losses and not even a hair on his head was ha...
