"Uncle Sheng, open your hands."
Sheng Zhentao did not understand, but still did as he was told.
"Everyone, look at the president's right palm. Is there something wrong?"
Dou Tian smiled mysteriously.
The eyes of the crowd turned towards the palm of Sheng Zhentao's right hand, and even Zhang Lan's gaze unconsciously landed on that pair of skinny hands.
"We can use our soul power to observe. That way, we'll be able to see everything clearly."
"There seems to be a faint phosphorescence."
Fatty was the first to call out.
"That's right. This phosphorescent light is very weak, but if you use soul power, you'll be able to feel it clearly."
The crowd nodded, many of them observing the phosphorescence.
"Just based on this phosphorescence, you can prove that it was my Pill Refiner Association that stole the medicinal formula. What a joke."
Zhang Lan said in disdain.
The crowd also nodded their heads. Although this phosphorescent light was rare, it wasn't anything rare.
Dou Tian was not in a hurry as he smiled and said:
"Of course, this phosphorescent light cannot prove anything. But don't you forget, what is this phosphorescent light?"
"It should be phosphorous rock powder."
Someone in the crowd guessed.
"No, it seems to be night light phosphorous powder. This is a material used to make poisons, colorless and tasteless. It is difficult to detect with the naked eye and can only be seen with soul power."
Another person shouted.
"That's right."
Dou Tian snapped his fingers and said:
"This is the luminous phosphorous powder. This luminous phosphorous powder has two other characteristics. The first is that it has a small particle shape and is almost weightless."
The second one will only disappear after three days, otherwise it will continue to be spread out. This is also why Night Light Phosphorus Powder is the first choice in refining poison. "
Reaching this point, Dou Tian paused, turned his head towards Sheng Zhentao and said:
"Uncle Sheng, when I first gave you the prescription, I smeared some luminous phosphorous powder on it."
Sheng Zhentao nodded his head, after that he seemed to have understood something, and turned to look at the person behind him. It was an old man dressed in a grey robe, his bones were as thin as firewood, but his eyes were extremely sinister.
Sheng Zhentao said with killing intent: "Lin An, that medicinal formula, I only let you see it!"
Upon hearing this, the old man's expression changed. Without hesitation, he turned and ran.
"Can you run away?"
As if he was already prepared, Sheng Zhentao stretched out his hand and struck towards Lin An's back, causing him to stagger and fall to the ground as he coughed out more blood.
Although Lin An was a Dao Level Warrior Pill Refiner with Lingyun Chamber of Commerce, he was only with Peak of Nascent Infant Battle Dao Stage. How could he be a match for Sheng Zhentao?
Dou Tian walked up to Lin An, grabbed both of his hands and said:
"Everyone look at these hands again?"
"luminous phosphorous powder!"
The crowd cried out in alarm, and they instantly understood that this old man by the name of Lin An must have leaked the prescription.
"Even if he revealed the secret formula of your Lingyun Chamber of Commerce, what does it have to do with my Pill Refiner Association?"
Zhang Lan sneered, and tried his best to defend himself.
"I'll make you give up."
Dou Tian glanced at Zhang Lan and said:
"As a Dou Apothecary, you don't even know the characteristics of the luminous phosphorous powder?"
"Zhang Xi, raise your hands up!"
Dou Tian roared out. He circulated his soul power and a strong pressure pounced towards Zhang Xi.
Zhang Xi was already scared to death, he did not dare resist and directly raised his hands high in the air.
"luminous phosphorous powder!"
Some people in the crowd cried out in alarm. Using their soul power to observe the area above Zhang Xi's hands, they could see that there were granules that were faintly glowing.
"The Pill Refiner Association actually stole the formula of the Lingyun Chamber of Commerce? No, to be more accurate, someone was actually planted in the Lingyun Chamber of Commerce, truly shameless! "
"It doesn't matter if we insert people. After all, it's normal to fight openly and secretly. And more importantly, they actually sell poison. They want to frame thousands of soldiers."
The crowd all looked at Zhang Lan and his son furiously. Even Word Law Battle Magic Stage Expert might not be able to endure such rage, not to mention the father and son duo.
Zhang Lan and his son were trembling from head to toe, they were so scared that they could not even stand straight, and fell to the ground.
They knew that because of what had happened today, the reputation of their Yanbei Imperial City had been completely defeated by this father and son pair.
"General Manager Zhang, do you have anything else to say?"
Dou Tian smiled as he looked at Zhang Lan.
If it was just a profit, then some people would intentionally use it to harm others.
"I didn't miscopy a single word of the prescription. I even checked it several times. How did the Soul-tempering Liquid get poisoned?"
Zhang Lan did not say anything, but Lin An said that with an unwilling face.
Sheng Zhentao, Lin Feng and the others looked at Dou Tian with puzzled expressions.
Dou Tian laughed:
"In the prescription I gave Uncle Sheng, there is a stalk of Inner Demon Grass. The Inner Demon Grass is originally a type of poison, but in the Soul-tempering Liquid, it is an antidote, and when mixed together with other medicinal liquids, it happens to reach a balance."
"Impossible, why is the person who tested the medicine safe and sound, and why is there a problem with the three of them?"
Zhang Xi could not believe it.
"That's because after diluting it, the medicinal properties won't change for a short period of time. But after being exposed to air for a long time, the other medicinal liquids will naturally become poisonous."
Dou Tian unhurriedly explained.
The crowd instantly understood. The person who stole the Lingyun Chamber of Commerce's formula was discovered by the Lingyun Chamber of Commerce, so they purposely concocted a clever formula so that the Pill Refiner Association could obtain it.
Pill Refiner Association did not know the way to keep them, and after being exposed to the air for a long time, the Heart Demon Grass' medicinal liquid became volatile, thus causing the matter regarding the Pill Refiner Association to be exposed.
Zhang Lan, his son, and Ling Linjian all paled. They knew that they had become the public enemy of the Yanbei Imperial City Warriors with the things that had happened today.
"Lin An, you should know the rules of Lingyun Chamber of Commerce."
Sheng Zhentao was startled, he looked at Ling An who was like a dead dog.
Hearing this, Ling An's expression changed, and he hurriedly begged for mercy:
"President, Lin An has done wrong. Please forgive her. Ling An will definitely do everything in his power to help Lingyun Chamber of Commerce."
"No need!"
Sheng Zhentao said indifferently.
"Guild Leader Zhang, save me! It was for your sake that I …"
Ling An knew that Sheng Zhentao would not spare him, so he could only beg Zhang Lan.
Puff! However, contrary to everyone's expectations, when Zhang Lan's palm landed on Lin An's head, the skull instantly shattered, and he died.
"Bewitching my son to do something wrong, damn it!"
Zhang Lan looked at Lin An's corpse coldly.
The eyes of the crowd narrowed, they did not expect Zhang Lan to be so ruthless, to be so merciless, and to kill Lin An without saying a word, and now that Lin An was dead, he had no say.
"Everyone, this old man will give everyone an explanation for today's events. From today onwards, this old man and his son will have no face to continue staying in the Pill Refiner Association."
Zhang Lan said, and then bowed to the warriors around him.
The surrounding warriors fell silent, no one spoke a word, and withdrew their Pill Refiner Association. To Zhang Lan and his son, this could be said to be the biggest punishment.
Dou Tian and Sheng Zhentao did not say anything. Although Zhang Lan and his son had done something wrong, they did not dare to kill the father and son duo. They could only allow Zhang Lan and his son to leave.
After a few breaths of time, Zhang Lan and his son left. Sheng Zhentao took a deep look at Dou Tian and was extremely shocked in his heart.
"Uncle Sheng, now that the matter has been resolved, it is time for us to take our leave."
Dou Tian suddenly cupped his fists and said. He did not plan to participate in the sale of the Soul-tempering Liquid.
"Duotian, return my life!"
Without waiting for Sheng Zhentao to speak, an explosive shout resonated through the air, and following that, waves of powerful Spirit Qi rushed over.
