Chapter 165: Chen Yi and Fairy Ouyang, that pair of scoundrels
City Lord Qin is currently in the mid Core Formation stage. In the Northern Cold Immortal City, where spiritual energy is scarce, it would be nearly impossible for him to advance to the late Core Formation stage in this lifetime without a significant stroke of luck. Today’s operation was his "tribute" for joining the Hidden Scale Pavilion. If the plan had succeeded, the Pavilion would have requested that the Lake Master reward him with a Tier 3 supreme-grade breakthrough pill to help him reach late Core Formation.
Now, not only had everything gone to ruin, but he had also squandered the city's last remaining spiritual vein. Furthermore, to make his performance convincing, the grave injury he sustained from the final strike was entirely real. He shuddered to think of the cost he would have to pay to get Qin Wan'er to concoct a Tier 3 healing pill for him.
