Qiao Ran thought helplessly, in the end she still had to rely on herself.

All the way up to the last Flaming Pill, it was bought by the young master behind her. After the auction, the girl in red asked the winner to come backstage to exchange money for the pill.

The people behind her had just gotten up and taken a few steps when they were surrounded. Just as a fight was about to break out, the woman in red spoke up.

"Please do not cause trouble in my Dan Dao Temple, otherwise you will never be allowed to set foot in my Dan Dao Temple again."

The crowd then dispersed.

Qiao Ran and the other two slowly walked out. When they reached the door, Qiao Ran touched her mask and lowered her voice, "Captain, when are we going to make our move?"

Wu Yang gave her an approving look. "Wait for someone to come out," he said to Cheng Kaiji. "You go after them and cover Qiao Qiao."

Cheng Kaiji nodded.

Sure enough, the man came out after a short while. Qiao Ran took a look at the wealthy young man during the commotion. He was dressed in a blue robe and also wore a mask. He was carrying a sword and walking alone into the street, seemingly about to leave the black market.

Wu Yang: "Keep up."

Cheng Kaiji followed first, followed by Qiao Ran and Wu Yang. The young man in the blue robe turned around in a narrow alley after several twists and turns, and said unhappily, "You've followed me all this way, but you don't even dare to show your face?"

Cheng Kaiji leaped down from the rooftop and met the young man in blue. He replied politely, "Young master, you deliberately led us here to force us to show ourselves."

"Enough with the nonsense," the young man in the blue robe seemed unwilling to waste any more time and directly drew his sword at Cheng Kaiji. Cheng Kaiji dodged to the side and shouted, "Young master, you won't even give me a chance to negotiate?"

"Who do you think you are, to try and negotiate with me?" The young man in the blue robe was furious. Cheng Kaiji took a moment to turn around and shrugged at Qiao Ran. He had no choice but to resort to force.

This was also the first time Qiao Ran had seen Cheng Kaiji make a move. His sword energy was unpredictable and strange, like silk wrapped around water, sticking tightly to his opponent. His opponent was able to retreat many times, but was inexplicably pulled back by the sword energy that was both soft and strong.

The two fought fiercely in the alley, but no one heard the commotion and came to investigate.

It seems everyone in this black market is shrewd, and no one wants to get into trouble for no reason, so they all pretended not to hear.

Cheng Kaiji repeatedly pestered the other party, saying with a hint of apology, "If you could give us a Marrow Cleansing Pill, everything would be fine."

The young man in the green robe had a dark face hidden behind his mask, his lips were tightly pressed together, and he pushed Cheng Kaiji away.

Having watched the spectacle to their heart's content, Wu Yang said to Qiao Ran, "When your Brother Cheng gets entangled with that person again, go over and smuggle the Marrow Cleansing Pill over."

Wu Yang spoke with a straight face, as if the expensive Marrow Cleansing Pills he bought were originally theirs. Qiao Ran gave him a thumbs up in admiration.

Since everyone here is shameless, she felt free to unleash her full power.

Within three moves, Cheng Kaiji had his opponent cornered again. Seizing this opportunity, Qiao Ran nimbly jumped off the roof, gave a mock shout, and ran towards the two of them, muttering as she ran, "Hey, stop fighting! Stop fighting!"

The young man in the blue robe glanced at Qiao Ran and said to Cheng Kaiji, "Your accomplice?"

Cheng Kaiji shook his head decisively, "I don't know him."

"Believe it or not, I'll kill her!"

"Hmph," Cheng Kaiji sneered, "Let's talk about getting rid of my sword first."

Qiao Ran said she was running towards him, and she really wasn't afraid at all. The sword energy of the young man in the green robe repeatedly grazed her face, and she cried out and jumped up, "Don't hurt me! Don't hurt me!"

Hiding behind Cheng Kaiji, she noticed that the young man in the blue robe looked at her as if he wanted to devour her. In the brief moment that Cheng Kaiji had restrained the man, Qiao Ran quickly ran around the two of them and disappeared. A flash of surprise crossed Cheng Kaiji's eyes; he hadn't even noticed Qiao Ran's move.

She seemed to rush in to mediate the fight amidst the chaos, getting close briefly before quickly leaving.

Once Cheng Kaiji had estimated that Wu Yang and Qiao Ran had gone far away, he forced the young man in green robes back with a single sword strike, then smiled and praised him, "Your skills are quite good, please forgive me."

Before the young man in the blue robe could catch up, Cheng Kaiji disappeared into the street. The young man in the blue robe was panting, completely bewildered by their actions. He reached for his waist, which he had been carefully protecting, which was why he had been held back for so long.

But at this moment, his waist, which no one had ever touched, was completely empty.

"I'm going to kill you all!!"

The young man in the green robe let out a low roar, his eyes burning with fury. He swung his sword at the wall beside him, and a crack instantly appeared in the wall.

If the item is lost, how will he report back?

It's that girl from earlier, it's her!

Suppressing his anger, the young man in the green robe chased after the black market once more.

Meanwhile, Qiao Ran and the others had returned to Tuoyue Pavilion, and she took out the things she had taken from the young man in the green robe.

"Here you go, the Marrow Cleansing Pill, the Blazing Fire Pill, and the Spirit Poison Pill are all here."

Cheng Kaiji looked at the table full of pills and laughed out loud. He felt so happy.

"To be honest, Qiaoqiao, did you really make a move just now?"

Qiao Ran raised her eyelids slightly. "Guess."

The sight before them was the best proof. Even Wu Yang had to admit that Qiao Ran's superb hand skills, along with Cheng Kaiji's help, allowed Qiao Ran to get close to the young man in the blue robe. If Qiao Ran wanted to kill him in one blow at his vital point, she only needed a needle.

Wu Yang glanced at Qiao Ran without showing any emotion, then picked out a Marrow Cleansing Pill from the table. "Qiao Qiao, take it tonight."

Qiao Ran took it and looked at it. It was just an ordinary pill. She asked suspiciously, "Brother Cheng, didn't you say that Gui Xu was a fraud? Will this Marrow Cleansing Pill have any side effects?"

Cheng Kaiji said, "You probably won't be able to sleep tonight."

"..."

Qiao Ran stared at the pill, unsure whether to take it or not, as the side effects were likely to be significant.

“Washing the meridians and marrow is not an easy task. After taking it, your meridians will be more flexible, but you will have to endure the pain,” Wu Yang said. “Qingqing and the others have used this marrow-washing pill before. Apart from the difficult process, the side effects are minimal, which is why they dared to give it to you.”

"Why is there another letter here?" Cheng Kaiji picked it out of the bag.

Qiao Ran took it and looked at it. "It was kept with the pills, so I just took it with me. Let me open it and take a look."

As Qiao Ran spoke, she opened the letter, quickly read it, and said, "That young man in blue... seems to be someone from the imperial court."

Wu Yang: "Let me see."

The letter instructed me to go to the underground black market in Sichuan to retrieve the medicine and return to the palace immediately.

“People from the palace,” Cheng Kaiji frowned slightly, “I didn’t expect that. I thought they were martial arts practitioners.”

Qiao Ran: "The people in the palace want these three kinds of pills. Who are they going to give them to?"

None of them knew that Wu Yang had put the letter away and solemnly instructed, "The three of us should keep this to ourselves; don't tell anyone else."

The two indicated that they understood.

"We have no intention of provoking the imperial court. We just happened to run into them. Fortunately, we disguised ourselves. For safety's sake, you two should stay inside the building for the next two days."

“Okay,” Cheng Kaiji patted Qiao Ran on the shoulder, “Don’t be afraid. No matter how far the government’s influence is, it can’t reach the black market. If he can’t find us, he’ll leave in a few days. Nothing will happen.”

“I’m not afraid,” Qiao Ran said, holding the Marrow Cleansing Pill. “I’m going back to my room. I’m waiting to take this pill so I can learn real skills from the commander.”

Cheng Kaiji found her adorable and waved his hand, "Go ahead, we'll take turns guarding your door tonight. Call us anytime if anything happens."

Qiao Ran frowned, "No need. The only thing I'll feel after taking this pill is a little pain. I can bear it and it will pass. Don't worry."

Cheng Kaiji looked at her with a strange expression. "Qiaoqiao, good luck."
