After making the decision, Wei Hong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he was still somewhat worried at this time, not knowing what the situation would turn out to be, this was not something he could change alone. All he could do was to find a way to protect himself.

"No matter what, apart from refining the elixir, it's best not to even step out of the door of the courtyard!"

Wei Hong made up his mind and immediately got up and returned to his own courtyard.

After returning, he immediately called the servants who were usually responsible for his daily life and various chores, and told them that they didn't need to come to the courtyard without his call during this period, and he would notify them if there was anything.

He did this because he was worried that his residence would be infiltrated by pawns controlled by the Blood Spirit Sect, so he simply sent them all away. He also took a look with the Lingguang Treasure Mirror and did not find anything abnormal about those servants.

This also made Wei Hong temporarily relieved, and he waved his hand and asked the servants to retreat.

He then came to the training room and slowly calmed his mind with the help of meditation.

However, he did not expect that the peace he thought he would have for a period of time would be broken on the second day, which was totally beyond his expectation.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Huang, can you come sit with me today if you have time? Come on, come on, please come in!"

Wei Hong welcomed a thin, pale-faced middle-aged man into the yard with a smile on his face.

This person appeared outside his yard early this morning and sent him a communication talisman.

Wei Hong sensed the vibration of a communication talisman outside the formation and only then did he realize that this person had arrived.

This middle-aged man is also the deacon of Danwang Pavilion, and he is also a second-level mid-grade alchemist.

This person's name is Huang Tianheng, and his actual cultivation level is the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, which is slightly lower than Wei Hong. He and Wei Hong have a lot of interactions, and he would occasionally get together with several other alchemists to exchange alchemy experiences.

However, Huang Tianheng seldom came to Wei Hong's residence, so Wei Hong showed a hint of surprise at his arrival.

Huang Tianheng sat down at the stone table in the yard and said with a smile: "Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei, I would not come to see you today for no reason. If I am rude, please forgive me!"

Huang Tianheng seemed quite polite, and also made it clear that he came to see Wei Hong for something.

Wei Hongze smiled and said, "Hey, Brother Huang, you are being a little polite. What's the point between us? If you have something to say, please just speak up!"

Having said that, he was secretly awakened in his heart.

When Huang Tianheng heard what Wei Hong said, he laughed and said, "Haha, if that's the case, then I'll just speak frankly."

"Daoyou Wei, it's like this. Huang came to visit me this time because he actually wanted to invite you to go out with me to look for medicine. What do you think?"

When Wei Hong heard the intention, he was immediately startled and secretly alerted. He quietly injected a trace of spiritual power into his eyes and asked with a puzzled look: "Oh? Going out to look for medicine? What does Brother Huang mean? Doesn't our Danwang Pavilion have all kinds of spiritual materials? Why do we need to go out to look for them?"

As he spoke, he saw a layer of blood faintly revealed in Huang Tianheng's body.

Seeing this scene, Wei Hong's face showed no abnormality, but deep down in his heart he secretly said "as expected", and his vigilance immediately reached the highest level.

In fact, he had already anticipated this when Huang Tianheng suddenly came to visit him, but he did not expect that this was actually the case. Huang Tianheng was indeed one of the chess pieces planted by the Blood Spirit Sect. This fact really shocked and angered him.

What was shocking was that Huang Tianheng, who had a relatively high status in Danwang Pavilion, was still secretly controlled by the Blood Spirit Sect's people. Therefore, Wei Hong was quite wary of the Blood Spirit Sect's methods, fearing that he would fall into their trap accidentally.

Moreover, it was hard not to be suspicious when Huang Tianheng came to the door at this time and said he was going out.

What made him angry was that this person had such bad intentions that he actually set his sights on him. It was obvious that he wanted to lure him out of the fairy city and then harm him.

However, Wei Hong still suppressed the anger in his heart, and his expression did not show any abnormality.

Huang Tianheng seemed to have anticipated Wei Hong's question, so he immediately explained: "Haha, Daoyou, you don't know, in fact, Huang has found a secret treasure land, which I discovered by accident. There are many rare spiritual flowers and herbs in it, and many of them are hundreds of years old, and the grade is also above the second-grade upper grade. I came to invite Daoyou this time because I have a good relationship with you, and this benefit cannot be given to outsiders!"

"Ah?" Wei Hong seemed to be shocked when he heard this, and asked hurriedly: "Hey, Fellow Daoist Huang, you are willing to take me into such a treasure land? Why don't you go and pick the fruits by yourself? How can I share such benefits with you!"

At this moment, he became more alert.

Huang Tianheng, on the other hand, showed no concern at all. He just waved his hand and said, "Hey, do we still need to be so polite? Besides, I have already picked the spiritual herbs in that treasure land once. This time, I am waiting for the other spiritual herbs that are not old enough to mature before I go there. Don't mind, fellow Taoist!"

"How can that be possible!" Wei Hong showed a grateful look on his face, and then said: "Daoyou has such a benefit and still thought of me, Wei is really grateful, but I am going to retreat for a while recently, so I can't agree to Daoyou!"

He refused very tactfully and did not want to offend this person openly.

Huang Tianheng was naturally unwilling to give up after hearing this, and he hurriedly advised: "Friend Wei, we can come back and retreat again. Why do we need to rush now? Those spiritual herbs are waiting for us to pick them. If we miss them, it will be difficult to find them in the future!"

"By the way, we can split the spiritual herbs we pick 50-50. Huang will definitely not take more than one point. Don't worry, fellow Taoist!"

Huang Tianheng seemed to be afraid that Wei Hong would not go, so he kept saying all kinds of benefits to tempt him to go out and collect herbs.

Wei Hong was naturally not stupid. He had already noticed that something was wrong, and after seeing the blood on Huang Tianheng's body, it was impossible for him to believe a word he said.

"Alas, I am truly sorry, Fellow Daoist Huang. I also want to go with you, but this retreat is very important to me, so I can only reluctantly refuse. I hope you will not blame me!"

Wei Hong looked embarrassed, but finally gritted his teeth and refused.

He didn't know what Huang Tianheng's purpose was for him, but as long as he rejected him, he could avoid his malice and traps and prevent himself from falling into danger. This was also the wisest choice.

However, Huang Tianheng seemed still unwilling to give in, and tried to persuade Wei Hong a few more times by offering various benefits. However, when he saw that Wei Hong was determined to refuse, he reluctantly offered to leave.
