The Pill King decided to drop the act and charged forward with a furious curse.

Qi Ye was so terrified that his face changed color. He turned to run, but how could he possibly outrun the Pill King, who was at the Transformation Realm? After just a few steps, the Pill King caught him like a chick in his hand.

"Master, Master, please don't kill me! I'm your disciple, your personal disciple!" Qi Ye wailed, pleading for mercy. He had always had an innate fear of the Pill King, and now that the Pill King seemed to have gone mad, he was truly afraid for his life.

He wasn't afraid of dying, but he didn't want to die without knowing why.
