Chapter 1187: Chapter 1186: Turmoil in the Pill Alliance Chapter 1187: Chapter 1186: Turmoil in the Pill Alliance The Pill Alliance had established numerous places of imprisonment in the Extreme North Land to suppress those with serious crimes; the deeper one went into the Extreme North Land, the more formidable the imprisoned criminals would be.
The Eastern Pole Heaven King, along with Elder Tiankui and Fang Lin, first locked Elder Tiankui in a dungeon, then led Fang Lin deeper into the Extreme North Land.
“Heaven King, where are we heading?” On the way, Fang Lin, having nothing better to do, asked.
The Eastern Pole Heaven King glared at him, “You little brat, you’ve caused such a big mess and still act as if nothing’s wrong?”
Fang Lin smiled lightly, “How big can it be? A few people died, that’s all. And with Elder Tiangang gone, the Pill Alliance will be better off than before.”
The Eastern Pole Heaven King said irritably, “It’s not just Elder Tiangang’s death. You also set the Inspection Hall ablaze, and you’ve subdued the Dragon Family Demon as your puppet. I bet everyone in the Pill Alliance is talking about you right now.”
Fang Lin grinned, “Well, that’s great. Now I’ve really made a name for myself.”
The Eastern Pole Heaven King was speechless; this kid had such an unbelievable attitude. He had caused such chaos, yet he seemed not to care at all. It was hard to tell whether he was heartless or just pretending to be calm.
“Kid, let me tell you, this matter won’t be easy to resolve. You’d better stay put here for a while,” the Eastern Pole Heaven King said.
Fang Lin nodded, “So how will I ultimately be dealt with?”
The Eastern Pole Heaven King sighed, “That’s still hard to say. I’ll discuss it with Western Moon and the others.”
Fang Lin pursed his lips, “The Western Moon King would love to see me dead. What kind of resolution can be expected from consulting with them?”
The Eastern Pole Heaven King shook his head, “It’s not that simple. You’ve caused a significant incident, and although there are understandable reasons, we still need to give an explanation to the whole Pill Alliance.”
Fang Lin fell silent. His uproar at the Inspection Hall had brought forth the appearance of the four Great Kings and even led to the slaying of Elder Tiangang. Each incident was grave; if anyone else were in his place, they might well have been executed on the spot.
But it was Fang Lin who had acted, and the Eastern Pole Heaven King knew that the fault did not entirely lie with him. It was Elder Tiangang’s coalition with Situ Zheng plotting to harm Fang Lin that led to his furious counterattack.
That’s why the Eastern Pole Heaven King said the matter was not easy to resolve. He and the other three Heaven Kings had differing opinions, and it would likely take a long time to reach a conclusion.
More than an hour later, the Eastern Pole Heaven King had brought Fang Lin to the deepest imprisonment point in the Extreme North Land.
This point of imprisonment was very close to the five-hundred li boundary of the Extreme North Land, with exceedingly low temperatures all around, and a thick layer of solid ice underfoot that appeared to be several zhang thick.
Fang Lin looked around; there was nothing here, nothing but desolation as far as the eye could see.
“Are you going to imprison me here?” Fang Lin asked, looking towards the Eastern Pole Heaven King.
The Eastern Pole Heaven King nodded and with a gentle wave of his hand, a neatly split opening appeared in the hard ice on the ground, revealing a passageway.
The Eastern Pole Heaven King led the way with Fang Lin following behind as they entered the passageway.
After a short walk, Fang Lin followed the Eastern Pole Heaven King into an underground prison. The space was cramped and a bit claustrophobic, but there were quite a few ever-burning lamps hanging around, so the underground prison was not too dark.
The prison had four cells, but the other three were covered with arrays, obscuring the view inside. It seemed that there were people imprisoned in those three cells.
“There are three people imprisoned here; you are the fourth. However, each of these four cells is separated by an array, so you will have no contact with the people in the other cells,” the Eastern Pole Heaven King explained, pointing at the empty cell.
But the East Pole Heaven King simply waved his hand, and the prison gate was opened, signaling Fang Lin to enter on his own.
Fang Lin did not immediately go in, instead, he said to the East Pole Heaven King, “Heaven King, how long do you think I will be held here?”
The East Pole Heaven King furrowed his brows slightly, “At least three months, perhaps even longer, but you need not worry, I will ensure your safety. Although this is a prison, it is also a place for you to take refuge.”
Fang Lin nodded, offered a slight smile, and with a cupped fist salute to the East Pole Heaven King, he then walked into the prison.
With a bang, the prison door was closed, but the array did not rise.
“I must go now, stay here in peace,” said the East Pole Heaven King, before leaving.
Standing within the prison, Fang Lin looked around at the other three cells, his mood fairly calm.
“Boy, you’ve really had quite the thrill this time,” teased the voice of the Demon Saint Old Dried Corpse.
Sitting cross-legged, Fang Lin thought to himself, “This is all thanks to your help, too. If not for your power, I would have been captured long ago.”
“With all this fuss you’ve made, I reckon the outcome won’t be very good. Maybe the Pill Alliance will even use you to set an example and punish you,” said the Old Dried Corpse.
Fang Lin replied, “I’ve also made my decision. If in the end they really want to dispose of me, then there’s no need to stay in the Pill Alliance anymore. Let’s just turn their world upside down.”
“Well said, but don’t come begging me to take action for you when the time comes,” the Old Dried Corpse jested.
Fang Lin laughed, “If it really comes to that, I’ll still have to ask for your help.”
“You haven’t even refined the Nirvana Pill for me, and you keep wanting me to exert effort for nothing. Where in the world is there such a good deal?” the Old Dried Corpse complained dissatisfied.
“The Nirvana Pill is missing just one main herb. If it really comes down to it, we can directly rob the Pill Alliance treasury,” Fang Lin said.
…
Within the Pill Alliance, due to the death of Elder Tiangang, the destruction of the Inspection Hall, and the fall of many Alchemy Tao family experts in the Extreme North Land, chaos ensued.
First and foremost, the faction of Elder Tiangang was nearly going mad, continuously clamoring within the Pill Alliance for justice for Elder Tiangang.
Since Elder Tiankui was also detained, Tiangang’s faction started to target Tiankui’s faction, with hostilities reaching the point of almost drawing swords against each other.
In addition, several Alchemy Tao families, headed by the Ling Family, having lost many experts, also got involved, hoping the four great Heaven Kings would provide an explanation to their families.
Meanwhile, members of the Inspection Hall also denounced Fang Lin and Elder Tiankui, branding Fang Lin as the most brazen villain in the history of the Pill Alliance.
The Pill Alliance was engulfed in turmoil; nearly everyone was affected, unable to remain uninvolved.
Amidst such turmoil, the four most powerful Heaven Kings of the Pill Alliance were sitting within the Ancient Pill Court, discussing how to resolve the current chaos.
“East Pole, I have only one thing to say, Fang Lin must die. As for Tiankui, his crimes are not deserving of death. A hundred years of detention should suffice,” said the Western Moon King.
