The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 1068 - 571: Immortal Life_2

He even continued to tell Yan Xiaobao about the terrifying fate of disciples who had conflicts with the Judicial Hall.

"Five hundred years ago, a traitor rose within the Spiritual Sect. The Judicial Hall tracked him for seven days, finally killing him and eradicating his soul!

"Three hundred years ago, an Outer Sect disciple openly violated sect rules. Although the Judicial Hall gave him a chance to repent, he ignored it. In the end, the Judicial Hall reported the matter to the sect, and the disciple was punished in the Black Wind Abyss; to this day, he's still ravaged by the fierce winds.

"One hundred years ago, the Zhou Mountain Society planned an armed rebellion. Despite the Judicial Hall's warning, they refused to back down. When they eventually took action, the Judicial Hall executed all the cultivators of the Zhou Mountain Society, leaving only mortals."

As Yan Xiaobao listened, his expression became more unpleasant than ever, and his heart began to pound.

"Are you telling me that generally the Judicial Hall will issue a warning first, and only if you do not repent will they take severe punitive measures?"

"Yes, precisely. It's one of the restrictions on the Hall of Justice. Otherwise, they would have too much power." So far, Xu Baocai had already guessed that the Judicial Hall must have set its sights on Yan Xiaobao. However, matters related to the Judicial Hall were sensitive, and Xu Baocai was smart enough to keep an eye on his own interests. Therefore, although he told Yan Xiaobao what he knew, he dared not get further involved.

Finally, just as Yan Xiaobao was about to leave, Xu Baocai hesitated for a moment while thinking about Yan Xiaobao's plant and vegetation techniques, then suddenly whispered: "Brother Bai, did you happen to know? An Inner Sect disciple from Green Crest Peak named... Qian Dajin? He's Chen Fei's cousin, who also happens to be a member of the Judicial Hall."

After the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, Yan Xiaobao left. As he walked along the sect's path, he looked up at the moon, thinking about everything Xu Baocai had said, only confirming what he had already suspected. Finally, he sighed.

"I haven't offended anyone in the sect!" he thought, gritting his teeth. "Except for Chen Fei, only Zhou Xinqi's fan... Qian Dajin. Qian Dajin!" Back at the medical turret, he sat cross-legged in the workshop, staring at the pill furnace. Then his face twitched slightly.

"Clearly, my failure to complete one sect mission each year is just an excuse. Unless someone specifically investigates, such a thing won't come to light, and even if it does, it's not a big issue. Besides, I'm surely not the only one in the sect who has done that. Since Qian Dajin is a member of the Judicial Hall, he's using his public office to avenge personal grievances!" After careful consideration, Yan Xiaobao's eyes reddened.

"If I continue to carry out this mission, he'll surely ensure that something happens at some point. Why would he go through all this trouble? But he still has to be careful to ensure the sect doesn't find out. In general, I still have the initiative.

"If I ignore the mission order, then I'll fall into his hands. He can control this initiative and use his position in the Judicial Hall to directly punish me!"

Yan Xiaobao thought from many angles but found no perfect solution. Finally, he took out his identity badge and checked the mission. It took him a moment to realize there was a familiar name in the mission description.

"Hou Yunfei?" Yan Xiaobao recalled the first time he became an Outer Sect disciple, his eyes widened as Hou Yunfei's sect detail was given to him. Then, he closed his eyes to think further.[1]

The mission didn't seem difficult. A few years ago, Hou Yunfei accepted a mission outside the sect, checking back for news every month. For disciples accepting long-term missions, this was a common arrangement.

However, two months ago, contact was lost, and no news returned.

Therefore, this new mission was passed down. Three Outer Sect disciples would be dispatched for investigation, with no specific details on what clues to gather.

Missions like this are common in the sect. All disciples have to do is investigate, find some clues, and then return to the sect to let others follow up. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Also, as far as the sect is concerned, a missing Outer Sect disciple isn't a very important matter. Of course, they are still disciples, so eventually, the matter must be handled.

This is why such missions exist in the first place.

Yan Xiaobao further thought, weighing all the options and facts, gritting his teeth.

"Alright, I'll accept the mission." Gasping, his eyes bloodshot, he immediately began formulating more pills. If he were to complete a mission, then he needed to make significant breakthroughs on his Immortal Iron Skin.

Two days later, Yan Xiaobao's body was trembling, his skin vibrating. Suddenly, a wave of darkness spread across him, soon dissipating. However, if observed closely, you might barely see red streaks flashing across his body.

"Black is iron, red is bronze!"

When he pressed his skin, a metallic sound rang out. Next, he stood up, confirming he was much faster than before.

After several tests, he leaped into the air, pinching his thumb and forefinger together. This time no cracking sound occurred, but a low booming did. The sounds weren't loud, but Yan Xiaobao could say his movement was at least twice as fast as before.
