Qing Lin received the jade pendant with great care and nodded her head firmly. "I uand, Young Master. No matter what happens iure, you will always be my Young Master, forever Qing Lin's Young Master."

  Xiao Yan's figure slowly moved bad gradually desded to the ground. He nodded slightly at Qing Lin aly waved his hand, "Go on."

  Qing Lin stood on the massive body of the Eight-Winged Bck Serpent Emperor. The eight wings behind the Serpent Emperor fpped, carrying her as they flew toward the horizon.

  "You should know the sequences of deceiving me." Xiao Yan's threatening words echoed in the Eight-Winged Bck Serpent Emperor's mind. Although Xiao Yan was only a mere Dou Grandmaster, the Eight-Winged Bck Serpent Emperor felt a chill in its heart.

  It didn't dare to retort ahe border of the Jia Ma Empire with its tail between its legs.

  Hai Bodong walked over to Xiao Yan and offered words of fort as he watched the Eight-Winged Bck Serpent Emperor leave, "Perhaps following them will be better for that little girl. There is an iance suitable for her there."

  The iance of a Dou Saint! Coupled with the unique physique of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, one could foresee that in a few years, a powerful elite expert with the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils was bound to emerge.

  "Hopefully. Otherwise..." A hint of sharp killing i fshed through Xiao Yan's eyes.

  At this moment, a crack suddenly appeared in the empty space. Mao Wu drilled out from the void. In addition to Mao Wu, there was also a small exquisite skeleton head in the void. The skull taihe Essence Fme of the Green Lotus Core Fme!

  The Essence Fme was being trolled by Xiao Yan's immense Spiritual Strength to prevent it from erupting.

  He had never used the Green Lotus Core Fme during this frontation. It wasn't that he didn't want to use it, but rather, he had ha over to Mao Wu to hide it in the void.

  Even a small spark could trigger the Bone Chilling Fme to erupt and freeze the entire underground world. If the Essence Fmes of the Green Lotus Core Fme and the Nihility Dev Fme were to collide, what kind of se would it produce!

  This was Xiao Yan's final trump card. If they really couldn't e to an agreement in the end, then the Eight-Winged Bck Serpent Emperor would have found out just how devastating the sequences could be.

  Xiao Yan used his Spiritual Strength to retrieve the Green Lotus Core Fme bato his Acceptance Soul. Although Hai Bodong didn't know what the bck cat was, his Dou Emperor's sense of daold him that if they hadn't e to an agreement just now, somethierrifying would have happened!!

  "You brat, just how many more hidden cards do you have…" Hai Bodong looked at Xiao Yan as if he had just survived a close call. No one would believe it if he told them that a mere Dou Grandmaster had repeatedly made him, a Dou Emperor, feel a mortal threat.

  "Old Hai, I hope you keep this matter a secret." Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze and turo look at Hai Bodong beside him.

  Hai Bodong waved his hand, "Alright, alright. This old man has just recovered to the Dou Emperor realm. I don't want to get involved in any more inexplicable matters now. I just want to properly recover my strength. This old man was once a 5-star Dou Emperor, you know."

  "My favor to you is repaid with this matter settled. I'll wait for you in the imperial capital. tact me whenever you arrive at the Miteer Au House."

  Xiao Yan smiled and flicked his fiaking out a pill recipe scroll from his ste ring and tossing it to Hai Bodong.

  "Hm? What's this?" Hai Bodong caught the scroll and slowly ope. The words 'Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill' immediately caught his eye.

  The pill recipe was divided into two parts. One part was an introdu that anyone could read, while the other tained detailed instrus for the pill. This detailed part was imprinted with the Spiritual Strength of the recipe's creator and could only be viewed with Spiritual Strength.

  Moreover, the more times it was viewed, the more blurred the Spiritual Strength imprint would bee, until it eventually became unreadable.

  "The 5th-tier Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill. Its effect is to pletely restore strength that has deed due to sealing or internal injuries!!!" Hai Bodong was greatly shocked. He looked at Xiao Yan. What are y to do, kid?!

  "Xiao Yan, you little brat, what do you mean by this?" He narrowed his eyes and asked the smiling Xiao Yan.

  What an unfounded accusation!

  "No special meaning. It's just that after fighting alongside Old Hai, I feel that Old Hai is a hero of the times and have a feeling of instant camaraderie. Upon learning of Old Hai's troubles, I happeo have obtained a recipe for the Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill before, which solve Old Hai's problem." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

  Hai Bodong was an old fox. He uood the key point in those words—instant camaraderie.

  The meaning was that helping him refihe pill was because they were friends, and it was normal for friends to help each other. You help me, I help you.

  Hai Bodong looked at the Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill recipe in his hand, his brows tightly furrowed. He said, "Alright, no more beating around the bush. I will ensure your safety until you reach the 5th-tier and refihe Spirit Recovery Purple Pill yourself. Is that acceptable?"

  Xiao Yan revealed his gleaming white teeth and said in a friendly manner, "Then I have to thank Old Hai."

  "You little brat, really... Enough with the chatter. Let's hurry and leave this pce. We caused a huge otion in the Mo , you killed Mo g and even drew out a Dou Emperor from another fa. That old thing Jia Xing Tian will definitely e to iigate."

  Xiao Yan nodded. "Let's return to Rock Desert City first. I want to leave something for my two elder brothers."

  "ht, I've exhausted a lot of Spiritual Strength. I might need Old Hai to carry me part of the way." trolling the Heavenly Fme to leave his body and hide in the void ed much more Spiritual Strength than Xiao Yan had anticipated.

  "Good grief." Hai Bodong created a huge ice coffin, hoisted Xiao Yan onto it, and flew toward Rock Desert City.

  "Oh, and one more thing. It is the rule of alchemy that the medial ingredients must be prepared by oneself, Old Hai," Xiao Yan said while sitting on the ice coffin.

  "I really want to throw you off."

  …

  After returning to Rock Desert City, Xiao Yan didn't reveal everything to Xiao Ding and Xiao Li. He only gave a rough expnation that Qing Lin had been taken to a cultivation ground and would not be returning to the Jia Ma Empire for the time being.

  Xiao Yan had exhausted his Spiritual Strength to areme degree. He had to cultivate the Spirit Heart Gathering Soul Teique for aire night before finally rec.

  As for Hai Bodong, he naturally traveled between various cities to start searg for the ingredients to refihe Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill.

  'The fusion and collision of Heavenly Fme Essences is like a nuclear fusioion. Under ditions of high temperature, high pressure, and high density, two light atomiuclei bio form a single heavier one while releasing massive amounts of energy during the rea.'

  Xiao Yan looked at the two fmes floating above his left and right hands—the Ten Thousa Fme and the Green Lotus Core Fme. These two were the true Heavenly Fmes he had refined.

  Mao Wu was, after all, just a Seed Fme. Its power was still not parable to a true Heavenly Fme for the time being.

  This move, inally intended as a st resort, came from a piece of knowledge about nuclear fusion from his previous life.

  'If I want to truly make the two fuse, I o use Spiritual Strength to create a 'reactor' to trol the Heavenly Fmes. This has very high requirements for my Spiritual Strength and fire trol.'

  'If the Heavenly Fme is too far away from me, it will be very difficult to trol. If it's too close, the explosion will kill me.'

  'If Mao Wu could use its Dev Power to trol one Heavenly Fme and I only o trol o would be much simpler. Mao Wu also traverse the void, solving the distance problem.'

  A sudden image appeared in Xiao Yan's mind: he enveloped the Heavenly Fme with his Spiritual Strength, and Mao Wu carried the 'Heavenly Fme hrough the void to the enemy's rear, then—boom!—it exploded.

  It would be like ung a guided missile, catg the enemy pletely off guard!
