Now that such a major incident had occurred in the Alchemist Association and several elders were injured, the movements of the mountain peak were still ongoing. Everyone lacked a backbone, so they had no choice but to hurriedly send a message to He Qingyuan to invite him back.
At this moment, He Qingyuan was working together with the City Lord to track down Lin Bai’s whereabouts. After receiving the message, he said somewhat apologetically, “City Lord, something has happened in the association, and I need to go back and deal with it.”
The City Lord waved his hand. “Don’t worry. With me here, the heavenly net will be wide open and flawless. I believe that sooner or later, we will be able to capture this devil and bring him to justice. Oh right, is the matter at your side serious? Do you need me to send more people?”
He Qingyuan declined the City Lord’s good intentions. “Thank you for your concern, City Lord. The most urgent matter now is to capture this devil, Lin Bai. The Alchemist Association doesn’t need to waste resources. I can handle it myself.”
It was a pity that Elder Gu didn’t make it clear in the message. Otherwise, He Qingyuan wouldn’t have said such a thing. After all, what happened in the Alchemist Association wasn’t a small matter.
‘When he rushed back, everyone looked as if they had seen their savior and quickly surrounded him. “President, you’re finally here.”
“What exactly happened?!”
Elder Gu spoke concisely and told him everything that had happened before. Just as they were leaving, he even sent disciples to continue to use magic tools to investigate the movements of the mountain.
He Qingyuan frowned and made a prompt decision, “Bring me there immediately to check out the situation.”
“Report –” At this moment, the disciples who were scouting came running back one by one. Their expressions was as if they had seen a ghost.
“Yes, president! That mountain peak seems to be collapsing!”
Everyone immediately turned pale with fright. “How could it collapse!” He Qingyuan seemed to have thought of something and his expression was uncertain. He quickly walked over while the others followed closely behind.
‘When everyone arrived in front of the mountain peak, they realized that what the disciple had said was true. Even from a distance, they could feel the tremors coming from the ground.
Countless mountain rocks fell, and the ground collapsed in large areas. Amidst the flying dust, there were all kinds of medicinal plants that were wrapped within. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace as if they had been swallowed by the ground.
The rumbling sound was incessant and there were even huge pieces of rubble that were like meteors that fell from the sky. They were aimed at everyone, but with a wave of He Qingyuan’s hand, they instantly changed their direction and smashed into the mountain body that was about half the height of a
person.
“Boom!”
The two collided like fireworks. Tiny rocks rolled on the ground, and the dust around everyone’s feet hit their faces, causing many people to cough. They covered their faces with their sleeves and had no choice but to circulate their spiritual power to resist.
“What, what is going on?”

“Could it be that the commotion just now has caused an earthquake?”
“Even if it’s an earthquake, it wouldn’t only affect this area, right? I think it’s just like the water and fire and the collapse just now. This earthquake also came out of nowhere.”
Everyone was discussing among themselves. This earthquake was really strange. It only affected this area, but the other places that were beyond the range of the mountain were very calm.
He Qingyuan’s head tightened. No one could understand the depth in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking. After a moment, he said, “Does anyone know when this mutation began?”
“It was probably in the morning when we started picking herbs. At that time, we thought that it was caused by the hot weather, but later we realized that it wasn’t.”
“President, from the looks of it, this change doesn’t seem to have occurred naturally. It seems to be caused by man made.”
No one knew who said this, but everyone felt that it wasn’t right. It sounded like a fantasy. After all, who had the ability to cause such a huge change.
‘When the people around him heard this, they immediately revealed a mocking smile. “I think you’ve become stupid from refining pills. It was man made? Who did it? Let’s not talk about whether there’s anyone with such powerful strength. Even if there is, they wouldn’t appear here.”
A figure appeared in He Qingyuan’s mind. It was Lin Bai. He might really have such strength. After all, he had stirred up the City Lord’s estate like a pool of muddy water. This person was even more like a loach. He had actually escaped.
However, thinking about it, he should be thinking of a way to escape the City Lord’s pursuit. It was impossible for him to do such a thing.
“It’s not a solution to let it collapse like this. Will it harm the other peaks and the foundation of The Alchemist Association?”
He Qingyuan thought of the legend about this mountain peak and his expression suddenly became unpredictable. He subconsciously looked up. That was once the highest point of the mountain peak and also the place that looked like a cauldron lid. Now, it had disappeared without a trace.
Ahuge amount of spiritual power burst out from it. He wanted to stabilize the mountain and stop it from collapsing. But how could he resist this destructive force.
It was as if it was destined to be destroyed and there was no way to reverse it.

An endless amount of spiritual power was injected into it. He Qingyuan’s expression was a little ugly, but it did not have any effect. Other than slowing down the speed of the mountain’s collapse, there were still many broken stones falling down.
The people around him also said, “President, let me give you a hand.” Although they also did not understand why the president was so interested in this mountain, he had already done it. There was no need to ask so many questions.
Even so, everyone’s spirit energy added together could not stop the mountain’s collapse. In the blink of an eye, it was only half its original height.
“It’s useless. President, let’s stop. It’s a waste of spiritual power if we continue like this.”
He Qingyuan gritted his teeth and his expression became darker and darker..
