Chapter 263 Trouble At The Buddha Hall


    Chapter 263 Trouble at the Buddha Hall


    "Oh, it worked?" Billy raised an eyebrow and took the pill box, pulling out a pill from inside.


    He sniffed it first before swallowing it in one gulp. Soon after, a cool and refreshing feeling spread


    throughout his body, circting through his meridians and leaving him feeling clear-headed and


    refreshed.


    A few minutester, a surge of energy flowed into his Dantian.


    "How is it, boss?" Stout asked with a smile.


    "Hmm! It''s not bad." Billy nodded slightly satisfied.


    "Boss, your standards are too high. This is the Chi Condensing Pill that I spent so much effort


    refining! In terms of quality alone, this is at least sixth-grade level. And you''re just saying ''not bad''!"


    Stout was quite disappointed.


    As the name suggested, the Chi Condensing Pill could condense chi within one''s body. During


    battle between two opponents who were evenly matched in strength and skill level-wise; whoever


    could maintain their chi for longer would have an advantage over their opponent. Chi Condensing


    Pills allowed martial artists to recover some of their chi in a very short amount of time which could


    be life-saving during critical moments in battle. The amount of chi recovered depended on the grade


    level of the pill itself, which ranged from first to ninth grade with first being highest grade while ninth


    being lowest grade. Pills at the ninth-grade level were the most avable ones on the market; The


    best ones were only eighth-grade.


    Stout''s ability to refine sixth-grade pills was no easy feat as mostmonly found pills were only


    ninth-grade or lower grades with best ones being eighth-grade at most; however, he had previously


    refined seventh-grade healing pellets before this one.


    "A sixth-grade Chi Condensing Pill can only be effective against Battle Gods or below-level martial


    artists. You''re a blessed talent of Secret Essences thates once every few hundred years.


    Refining six-graded pills isn''t something worth boasting about." Billy nced at Stout coldly before


    continuing, "If it were your sister instead she would be able to refine fifth or even fourth-graded


    pills."


    "Well," Stout pouted, "You alwayspare me to my sister. It''s too discouraging!"


    "Keep up the good work, man!" Billy patted him on shoulder, "But there is something worth praising


    here, you managed to refine this after all."


    "Figure out how to get some raw materials from Secret Essences so we can mass-produce these


    things for White Tiger."


    "I see." Stout nodded vigorously.


    ...


    That night, Billy had just finished dinner and was about to y with Tasha''s toys when his phone


    rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Donald calling.


    "Donald," Billy answered the phone.


    "Sir, there''s an urgent matter I need to discuss with you." Donald said in a slightly hurried tone.


    "Please go ahead," Billy responded.


    "The domain lord of Buddha Hall, Samuel Watson, has run into trouble. ording to our sources,


    he has been kidnapped by people from ce of Darkness."


    "Hmm?" Billy was slightly taken aback. "When did this happen?"


    "We just received the news ourselves, it happened about half an hour ago." Donald continued.


    "Samuel Watson is mainly responsible for external affairs in the western half of the eastern


    hemisphere. He holds great significance for vale, and this incident could very well be caused by


    some Western countries."


    "I see," Billy replied firmly.


    The west area of the eastern hemisphere was a strategic cooperation area for vale and had


    always been coveted by many countries over these years due to conflicts arising from this region.


    As for the person named Samuel Watson, Billy also had some knowledge of him. He was a high-


    ranking officer who hade out of the War Department, known for his unwavering determination


    and strong character.


    "As things are quite urgent now and we''re worried that sending someone over from vale will take


    too long, I''m calling you to see if White Tiger canunch a rescue mission there!" Donald continued


    speaking on the phone without pause or hesitation.


    "Understood!" Billy nodded before asking further, "Do you know which faction is behind this incident


    specifically?"


    Although Billy didn''t have much good impression towards Buddha Hall internally but since its


    domain lord got abducted now then it would be a big deal for the country externally.


    Furthermore, Samuel Watson happened to be one of those few individuals whom he held favorable


    opinions towards within Buddha Hall.


    "For now we''re not sure yet, I''ll send you coordinates of where everything happenedter." Donald


    replied promptly.


    "All right! I''ll inform White Tiger immediately!" After saying so, Billy hung up his phone.


    Two minutester, coordinates were sent over regarding where everything took ce at. Billy then


    picked up his phone again and dialed White Tiger''s number.


    "Boss!" The moment after dialing out only rang once before White Tiger''s voice could already be


    heard on the other end.


    "White Tiger, there''s something important that needs your immediate attention!" After describing


    what had happened with Samuel Watson briefly on call, Billy instructed him ordingly without


    wasting any time or beating around bush.


    "These people are asking for trouble!" After hearing Billy''s words, White Tiger eximed loudly,


    "Boss, I''ll make sure of it!"


    "This could very well be instigated by a major power in the west. The force behind it should not be


    underestimated." Billy cautioned.


    "Understood!" White Tiger responded loudly.


    After a brief pause, he seemed to remember something and continued speaking, "Oh yeah, boss. I


    have something to report to you."


    "What is it?"


    "Do you remember the map that Rakshasa told you about before?"


    "The map?" Billy was momentarily confused. "Yes, I remember. What about it?"


    "I don''t know how the word got out but now everyone in ce of Darkness is saying that Rakshasa


    has obtained that map. I believe it won''t be long before someonees looking for us." White Tiger


    replied.


    Billy furrowed his brow slightly. "Have you found out what exactly that map rtes to?"


    "I had someone look into it," White Tiger replied. "Although we can''t confirm yet, it should have


    something to do with the fall of a powerful figure and those people probably want to go see if there


    are any treasures left behind."

    "Oh?" Billy was slightly taken aback, since he hadn''t expected this turn of events.


    "There have been quite a few people hanging around near Rakshasa Halltely, they''re probably


    here for this matter!" White Tiger continued speaking.


    "Any news from Sanctum of Darkness?" Billy frowned slightly.


    "Not yet." After pausing briefly, White Tiger added, "But they should also have some interest in this


    map."


    "I see." Billy nodded slightly. "You go take care of Samuel Watson''s business first, call me if


    anythinges up."


    "Understood!" After finishing his sentence, White Tiger hung up the phone.


    Billy then sent over some coordinates via text message.


    "Billy, is there something wrong?" Harleen asked after seeing him put away his phone.


    "Yeah! There''s been some trouble at camp." Billy nodded.


    "How serious is it? I can tell from your expression." Harleen could tell from Billy''s face that things


    weren''t good.


    "It''s not too bad!" Billy gave her a smile. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Honey, why don''t you


    y with our daughter while I go out?"


    He had an uneasy feeling in his heart. Although he couldn''t put his finger on it, Billy had a feeling


    that something was about to happen!
