Divine War Pill Emperor

"Something terrible has happened!"

Seeing a clan member run in, frantic with panic, everyone felt a sense of foreboding.

Jiang Han snapped, "Speak! What’s going on?"

Under the watchful eyes of the clan members, the man began to speak, flustered.

"It’s like this... When I went to check the Elixir Medicine Storage Room just now, I found that all the Elixirs have disappeared."

What?

The news hit them like a bombshell, and everyone shot up from their chairs.

Even Jiang Han’s face drained of color.

In an instant, he was in front of the man, grabbing him by the collar and demanding, "Are you sure?"

’This has to be a joke! All the Elixirs in the Elixir Medicine Storage Room are gone.’

Just moments ago, they had been talking about their ten-day supply. For it to be completely gone now... What did that mean?

It meant that the Jiang Family wouldn’t even have Elixirs to sell tomorrow.

The thought alone was enough to cause a panic.

All the clan members crowded around the one who had brought the news.

The man nodded repeatedly. "It’s absolutely true. I checked over and over again."

"There isn’t a single Elixir left."

BOOM.

A dead silence instantly fell over the entire Jiang Family.

The news was a bombshell that detonated in everyone’s mind.

It was terrifying.

Jiang Men immediately said, "Quick, take us there to see."

He still couldn’t quite believe it.

The others couldn’t believe it either. The group rushed out of the main hall, making a beeline for the Elixir Medicine Storage Room.

The Jiang Family’s Elixir Medicine Storage Room was usually under heavy guard. It was, after all, critical to the family’s survival, so of course they took precautions.

But when Jiang Han and the others arrived and looked inside, they saw that every single box meant to hold Elixirs was completely empty.

Not even a shadow of one remained.

A violent tremor ran through Jiang Han, and a cold sweat drenched him from head to toe.

His body even swayed uncontrollably.

"Patriarch..."

A clan member rushed to support Jiang Han.

Jiang Han took a deep breath, but it did nothing to lift the immense weight from his heart.

All of the Jiang Family’s Elixirs were gone. Starting tomorrow, the family would lose the majority of its income. It was a terrifying prospect.

He asked, his voice trembling, "Who did this?"

His eyes grew icy. ’Whoever did this is a complete monster. They want to drive the Jiang Family to despair!’

’So vicious, so heartless!’

’This is a move calculated to destroy the Jiang Family.’

Everyone looked at each other, their hearts heavy with dread.

Finally, all eyes fell on the clan member who had brought the news—the man in charge of guarding the Elixir Medicine Storage Room.

The man’s face was deathly pale.

THUD!

He fell to his knees.

He cried out, "Patriarch, it definitely wasn’t me!"

"How could I do something so monstrous?"

Jiang Men’s face was grim as he stared down the clan member.

"Then who did it?"

Suddenly, the clan member gasped.

"Right! I remember now! Before, Mr. Ling came to the storage room. He said he wanted to inspect the Elixirs."

"Yes, it was him! No one else came by."

What?

Everyone from the Jiang Family was stunned.

Ling Xuan. It was Ling Xuan.

Thinking it over, they realized that Ling Xuan was the only one who could have possibly taken all the Elixirs.

Jiang Han’s face was utterly livid.

"Ling Xuan, the Jiang Family treated you well, yet you repay us with such viciousness!"

"How cruel. How utterly cruel."

For the first time, he truly felt how detestable Ling Xuan was.

’He’s trying to completely sever the Jiang Family’s lifeline.’

"That bastard! Ling Xuan is an absolute bastard! Scum!"

"And to think we trusted him so much! He screwed over the Jiang Family on his way out. He’s absolutely ruthless."

They had all respected Ling Xuan before, but now, they wanted nothing more than to kill him.

Every single one of them was so furious they wished they could drag Ling Xuan back and subject him to death by a thousand cuts.

But now that Ling Xuan had gone to the Ximen Family, there was nothing anyone could do to him.

At this, their panic intensified.

They were all at a complete loss.

"Patriarch, our Elixir business will have to shut down tomorrow."

"Heavens, is the Jiang Family really done for?"

"Shut up! Don’t spout such nonsense!"

One of the clan members snapped at the one who had just spoken.

Right now, everyone’s mood was unimaginably grim.

Jiang Han helped the kneeling clan member to his feet.

He felt unsteady on his feet, which should have been impossible. Logically, with his Cultivation as a Martial Master Seventh Heaven, he should never feel unstable.

But this blow was simply too great.

As the Patriarch of the Jiang Family, he bore a greater pressure than anyone else.

The many mouths in the Jiang Family needed to be fed, which required a vast amount of money.

Now Ling Xuan had absconded with it all.

Jiang Chen watched everything unfold.

His expression was exceptionally cold.

’This man took everything without leaving a single scrap. How utterly ruthless.’

’Very good, Ling Xuan.’

In his heart, killing intent for Ling Xuan was already overflowing.

’His methods are too extreme, leaving the Jiang Family no path of retreat.’

「In the Ximen Family’s residence」

Ximen Gong had already awoken.

His expression was terrifyingly grim.

Seeing Ling Xuan beside him, he managed a weak nod. "Mr. Ling, my apologies for my behavior."

"My son was murdered by Jiang Chen, and I was the one who fed him the poison with my own hands. I... I truly lost control for a moment."

Ling Xuan sighed in consolation. "Patriarch, please take care of yourself."

"By the way, I have a surprise for you."

Ximen Gong looked at Ling Xuan in surprise. "A surprise? What kind of surprise?"

’What kind of surprise could there possibly be right now? The only thing that would surprise me is if the entire Jiang Family dropped dead.’

Ling Xuan took out a Qiankun Bag and handed it to Ximen Gong.

"Patriarch, take a look."

Ximen Gong took the Qiankun Bag, glanced inside, and asked in astonishment, "So many Elixirs?"

He could see that Ling Xuan’s Qiankun Bag was filled with Elixirs.

Ling Xuan smiled. "Patriarch, these are the Elixirs I took from the Jiang Family’s storage room. This is their entire stock."

What?

Ximen Gong froze.

"The Jiang Family’s entire stock of Elixirs?"

"You mean to say the Jiang Family doesn’t have a single Elixir left?"

His spirits suddenly soared, and he pressed Ling Xuan for confirmation.

Ling Xuan smiled and nodded. "That’s right. I didn’t leave them a single one."

"I’ve been dissatisfied with the Jiang Family for a long time. Even in leaving, I wasn’t going to let them off easy."

In that instant, a surge of energy shot through Ximen Gong.

He leaped out of bed.

Grabbing Ling Xuan excitedly, he burst into a booming laugh.

"Mr. Ling, you’ve done a magnificent job!"

"This is absolutely the greatest surprise! I am overjoyed! HAHAHAHA..."

He couldn’t stop laughing.

"The Jiang Family doesn’t have a single Elixir left, which means that starting tomorrow, their Pill Workshop won’t be able to sell anything!"

"The majority of the Jiang Family’s income will be cut off!"

"The Jiang Family is not far from bankruptcy!"

"Mr. Ling, you’ve done well! Incredibly well!"

He gripped Ling Xuan’s hands tightly. This surprise from Ling Xuan was truly greater than he could have ever imagined.

Ling Xuan also smiled. "Patriarch, it’s only what they deserve. The Jiang Family had this coming."

The two men looked at each other and grinned, the smirks of a successful conspiracy.

Ximen Gong gritted his teeth. "It seems the annihilation of the Jiang Family is not far off."

"I’ll be able to avenge my son soon!"

With a sycophantic grin, Ling Xuan said to Ximen Gong, "Then allow me to congratulate you in advance, Patriarch, on avenging the Young Master."

"I, too, wish to see the Jiang Family destroyed."
