331: Chapter 331 Enemy Attack in the Dark Night, Turmoil in the Xiao Family

After returning to the small courtyard!

Hun Tiandi sat cross-legged in the pavilion, continuing his great undertaking of alchemy, with Liu Ling by his side providing guidance.

Not far away, Yan Xing was supervising and guiding Qing Yue's cultivation. Azure Dou Qi flowed around her body, and her movement technique was like a willow leaf in the wind.

Moving with the wind, her speed was extremely fast.

No longer paying too much attention, he took a deep breath. His previous refining experience had taught him that the art of alchemy was not so easy to master.

When Liu Ling refined medicine before, it didn't seem to have anything extraordinary about it, only a process as smooth as flowing water and moving clouds.

The result, however, was the refinement of pills that would drive countless people into a frenzy.

It had looked very easy, but now that he was refining them himself, he realized just how difficult these pills were to make.

“This mere alchemy...”

Hun Tiandi cheered himself on. With the experience gained from previously refining five hundred portions of ingredients for Energy Accumulation Pills and successfully producing three, he had accumulated some experience.

Starting the alchemy this time, he was clearly much more relaxed.

After burning through three hundred portions of medicinal ingredients, he finally refined one qualified portion of medicinal liquid. One Energy Accumulation Pill could fill a person with vitality when they were fatigued.

Looking at the several types of medicinal liquids placed before him, Hun Tiandi nodded with satisfaction.

Beside him, Liu Ling was truly witnessing a shocking scene. Even back when his teacher, Pill King Gu He, had taught him alchemy step-by-step,

He hadn't wasted so many medicinal ingredients. One to three hundred—what a terrifying ratio.

“No wonder Mei Niang once said His Majesty is just spoiling medicinal ingredients and has no talent for alchemy!”

Liu Ling muttered to himself, but he couldn't say it out loud.

“Your Majesty, the materials required for the Energy Accumulation Pill have now been refined. Next, the most important part is to merge them together. This is the most crucial step in alchemy!”

Hun Tiandi nodded slightly and took a deep breath, his expression solemn.

He skillfully poured the medicinal liquid into the cauldron, continuously adding the remaining materials under the warmth of the blood-colored flames.

After tumbling slightly in the flames, the two gradually merged into a brown, viscous liquid.

He released his soul perception, controlling the temperature of the flames.

“The temperature requirements for various materials are all different, so you must learn to keep every inch of the cauldron's temperature under your control!”

“If it's too cold, compress the flames; if it's too hot, elevate the flames...”

Hun Tiandi's expression was solemn. Fortunately, his Soul Weapon Art had previously broken through to the third stage, and his soul had advanced to the Perfection of the Mortal Realm, increasing the strength of his soul perception several times over.

“According to the information, that person lives right here. Move quickly once we enter, and don't let anyone go!”

Outside the courtyard, a group discussed in cold voices. They drew their weapons and jumped into the yard, happening to see the two people refining pills under the pavilion.

Kill!

The leader gave the order, charging toward Hun Tiandi and Liu Ling, while the others charged toward the backyard.

“Hmph, seeking death!”

Liu Ling snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, surging Dou Qi flowed as he attacked the group without the slightest mercy. Screams of pain rang out.

“Eh, is this youth the person the commander needs?” Two figures rushed toward Hun Tiandi with lightning speed.

Hun Tiandi, who was focusing all his efforts on condensing the pill, had a cold look in his eyes. His soul perception was working at full capacity to maintain and regulate the flame temperature.

Now, powerful enemies had come to his door.

“Is this alchemy waste? My god, how untalented can one be to waste so many medicinal ingredients...”

One of the burly men mocked, though his hands did not stop moving.

“Don't run your mouth, just take him!” the other burly man beside him said coldly, reaching out to grab Hun Tiandi.

Boom...

Suddenly, the sound of an explosion came from Hun Tiandi's cauldron. Billowing black smoke rose, and a scorched smell wafted out!

“Heh, truly untalented!”

“You all... are unforgivable!” Killing intent surged in Hun Tiandi's eyes as he slowly stood up and drew a long saber with a flip of his hand.

He spoke coldly to the two men.

Whether it was because they mocked his lack of talent for alchemy or because the pill was destroyed, the consequences of Hun Tiandi's wrath were very serious.

“Yingjie, did you really do this...”

In a vast manor, Xiao Yingjie stood beside Xiao Lin with a solemn expression.

“Clan Leader, the ten-thousand-year stone milk we brought back has already been used by Sister Xiao. The effect was very good, and her internal injuries have partially subsided!”

“Therefore, we need more ten-thousand-year stone milk, and that youth must still have some in his hands, or know the location of the ten-thousand-year stone milk!”

“For Sister Xiao, let me be the sinner!”

Xiao Yingjie said firmly, his fists clenching until they creaked, his eyes filled with killing intent.

“Sigh...” Xiao Lin said helplessly.

While Xiao Yingjie was plotting against Hun Tiandi, outside the Xiao Family residence in the Jia Ma Empire, dozens of powerful figures were gathering, clearly targeting the Xiao Family.

“Everyone, the inheritance of an ancient powerhouse is within the Xiao Family. If we work together to obtain it, everyone present can have a copy!”

“However, besieging the Xiao Family is extremely risky. Everyone, give it your all!”

An expert from the Izumo Empire spoke. This time, the experts taking action came from various factions, all interested in the ancient inheritance.

“Move!”

Suddenly, with a shift of their bodies, dozens of figures charged directly into the Xiao Family.

“Who dares to come to the Xiao Family to cause trouble?” Xiao Yingjie shouted coldly, then rushed toward the crowd.

In an instant, the Xiao Family fell into chaos. Shouts of killing shook the heavens, and surging Dou Qi erupted, followed by bursts of shattering sounds.

Buildings were destroyed and screams were continuous. When Xiao Lin took action, a mysterious expert descended and blocked him.

These experts from various sides killed everyone they saw. Afterimages streaked across the sky, releasing terrifying auras.

“Your Majesty Yao Ye, there is news that experts have fought their way into the Xiao Family, and a earth-shattering battle has broken out!”

A commander reported.

“You may leave!” Yao Ye waved her hand. Beside her, Snow Charm's beautiful eyes flickered with a brilliant light.

“They finally moved!” Snow Charm smiled mysteriously. In her calculations, these people were a bit late in taking action.

“Sister Snow Charm, it seems the ancient inheritance has a great deal of attraction!”

A look of solemnity appeared on Yao Ye's fair face.

“Indeed. If our Imperial Family can obtain the ancient inheritance, we won't have to be so wary of the Xiao Family. Perhaps it could even take the Jia Ma Empire to the next level!”

Snow Charm nodded slightly. To say she wasn't interested in that inheritance would be a lie.

Mittel Auction House!

“The Xiao Family?” Ya Fei showed a hint of complex emotion. Regarding the people of the Xiao Family, she was only interested in that man.

With the Xiao Family in turmoil and powerful enemies attacking, how could the Mittel Family, with their strength, not have received the news?

However, they did not send reinforcements. As a merchant, she naturally knew how to obtain the greatest benefit.

If that man were still there, she, Ya Fei, would certainly have sent people to help.

The small courtyard where Hun Tiandi was!

Boom...

Hun Tiandi held his long saber and slashed fiercely at the two burly men attacking him. The saber light was as brilliant as a mirror as he struck with all his might.

The two burly men hadn't expected Hun Tiandi to strike so boldly. Their Dou Qi erupted as their weapons slashed toward Hun Tiandi.

Drink!

Hun Tiandi gave a low shout, and two more ten-meter-long saber lights slashed fiercely toward the two of them.

“This kid's strength is a bit strange!”

The two burly men glanced at each other and attacked forcefully.

Boom...

The three sides collided. The clash of saber light and weapons sparked intense sparks. As the saber light shattered, Hun Tiandi gave a strange smile.

Yellow Sword Soul Slash!

With a thought, a pale yellow soul sword emerged from his sea of consciousness, carrying a rain of swords as it slashed toward the souls of the two men.

Invisible and intangible soul power was impossible to guard against.
