343: Chapter 343 Seventh Grade Yangchun Baixue Pill

Bang...

Five bags of gold coins were tossed out by Hun Tiandi, landing heavily on the counter with a loud bang.

The piercing sound of metal caused the proprietress's expression to shift. She nimbly stood up from the ground and quickly opened the bags; the gold coins emitted a brilliant glow.

"Sir, have you vented your anger? If not, why not smash something else..." The proprietress pocketed the gold coins and looked at Hun Tiandi with a face full of smiles.

"Proprietress, pack up all the dresses these two ladies took a fancy to. I want new ones!"

Hearing this, the corners of Hun Tiandi's mouth twitched frantically. This proprietress definitely had something wrong with her head, actually asking someone to smash her own shop.

Only then did he speak.

"Wait a moment, sir, this humble servant will prepare new ones right away!" The proprietress moved swiftly, her figure like a fading afterimage as she went to the back warehouse to fetch new stock.

In the blink of an eye, they were ready and placed on the counter. Hun Tiandi took out more gold coins, and the transaction was completed.

With a wave of his sleeve, he stored them into his storage ring.

Turning around, he took Mei Niang's hand and walked outside. Mei Niang's dark brows furrowed slightly, but she did not struggle.

"Sir, please come back and smash the shop again sometime, I've struck it rich..."

The proprietress enthusiastically saw them off to the street, waving and shouting loudly, which drew the attention of the people on the street.

Hun Tiandi led Mei Niang to an elegant small courtyard. It was prepared earlier by the Blood Shadow Clone, as they would purchase a small courtyard whenever they arrived at a new place.

He wasn't used to staying in inns.

Buying a courtyard wasn't to show off; it was simply because he had money!

"How long do you plan on holding my hand?" After entering the elegant courtyard, while Hun Tiandi was surveying the surroundings, Mei Niang's cold voice came from behind him.

Hun Tiandi released her sheepishly, then immediately changed the subject, saying, "Liu Ling has already prepared the medicinal ingredients for the Spring Snow Pill. He can start refining the pill at any time!"

"The Snake Seal on your body can then be undone, and your strength restored!"

"Good!" Mei Niang was still thinking about the scene of her hand being held earlier; hearing that the pill could be refined, she responded distractedly.

"I'll have to trouble Alchemist Liu!"

"How can the Queen say such a thing? This is my duty!" Liu Ling said hurriedly, then went down to prepare for the pill refining.

"Everyone, go and rest!" Hun Tiandi waved his hand, dismissing the group.

Afterward, he sat cross-legged under the pavilion, continuing his great undertaking of medicine refining.

"Elder Mo, the one who injured the Young Sect Master is a youth in green robes. He is very strong and has guards with him; we were not his match!"

In an inn, Tian Guang lay on a bed wailing, weak and powerless.

"Treat the Young Sect Master first, we will discuss the rest later!" Elder Mo waved his sleeve and ordered.

Then, he took out healing pills and gave them to Tian Guang and the injured Hehuan Sect disciples.

"Just what is your identity? To actually not fear the prestige of the Hehuan Sect?"

Elder Mo fell into deep thought!

The Xiao Family!

"Second Uncle, you're injured?" In the main hall, Xiao Lin asked in surprise, looking at the pale-faced Xiao Li, his heart shocked.

One must know that Second Uncle Xiao Li was a Two-Star Dou Sheng with world-shaking strength.

To actually get injured during this trip to the Black-Corner Region was truly rare.

"Clan Leader, this Dazheng Dynasty is strange. It has a Dou Sheng presiding over it. The one who injured me was an old man in purple; his strength is terrifying, and he also controls a purple flame that is even more frightening than the third brother's Heavenly Flame!"

Xiao Li's expression was grave, his eyes filled with shock.

The 'third brother' here was naturally Xiao Yan, who wielded Heavenly Flames. Xiao Lin was stunned.

Even more frightening than a Heavenly Flame?

Xiao Lin naturally knew about Heavenly Flames—divine objects that could destroy heaven and earth. He hadn't expected that this tiny Dazheng Dynasty would not only have a powerhouse at the Dou Sheng level but also a terrifying mysterious flame.

"Hmm? The injuries on my body will take at least a year to fully heal!"

"Furthermore, the Dazheng Dynasty is strange in every way. Before we figure things out, I suggest the Clan Leader not act impulsively, lest it cause unnecessary casualties!"

"I don't know if there is only this one, or if they only deployed one?"

"The Black-Corner Region produces a type of Spirit Wine that contains energy and can rival pills. It's used for cultivation, healing..."

Xiao Li relayed all the information he had gathered to Xiao Lin without any reservation.

"Spirit Wine? In the Jia Ma Sacred Ground, there is a shop selling Spirit Wine. Business is extremely hot, and our pill business has been affected to some extent. The price isn't expensive either!"

Hearing about Spirit Wine, Xiao Lin remembered the Darong Shop, which was in the Spirit Wine business.

"Darong Shop? Eh, the one selling Spirit Wine in the Black-Corner Region is called the Darong Chamber of Commerce. It was converted from the former Black Seal City auction house and is managed by the Eight Gates!"

Xiao Li recalled.

"Second Uncle suspects that the two are related, or even that the Darong Shop is a branch of the Darong Chamber of Commerce..."

Xiao Lin spoke in shock. Xiao Li nodded and spoke about the rise of the Dazheng Dynasty and its King, Hun Tiandi.

"Clan Leader, our Xiao Sect has survived in the Black-Corner Region for many years. We naturally know how chaotic this region is. Even if the Xiao Sect wanted to unify it, we would have to pay a price!"

"However, this mysterious Hun Tiandi actually unified it in just five years. It's truly bizarre!"

Xiao Li said.

"Second Uncle, what if we destroy the Darong Shop and see the reaction of the Darong Chamber of Commerce? Perhaps this move to 'beat the grass to startle the snake' can draw out some monsters and demons!"

Xiao Lin suddenly spoke, asking his Second Uncle Xiao Li.

"There is a risk. If after destroying the Darong Shop, we anger the Darong Chamber of Commerce and follow this line down, if the Darong Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Dazheng Dynasty's forces, it will trigger thunderous fury!"

"Clan Leader, you must think carefully before making this move!" Xiao Li warned of the huge risks involved.

Hearing this, Xiao Lin nodded and similarly fell into deep thought.

Afterward, Xiao Li turned and left the hall.

The elegant small courtyard.

In a room, Liu Ling manipulated the Sun True Fire, focusing intently on refining the Spring Snow Pill. It had already reached the critical moment.

Surging energy fluctuations emanated from the medicinal cauldron, spreading outward.

In the courtyard, Mei Niang stood with her hands behind her back, anxiety flickering in her purple eyes as she stared unblinkingly at Liu Ling's room.

"Sister Mei Niang, don't worry. Old Liu's refining skills are superb; everything will be fine!"

Qing Yue, who was beside her, comforted her softly, knowing that Mei Niang had waited too long for this moment.

Yan Xing and Tu Xingzi cautiously guarded the surroundings with grave expressions. The leaking energy would draw the attention of many in Linhai City.

Bang...

Just as Mei Niang was about to lose her patience, a surging pillar of energy shot out from Liu Ling's room towards the sky, accompanied by a rich medicinal fragrance.

"Not good! The pill is about to form!" Yan Xing, having followed Liu Ling, naturally knew this was the sign before a pill's completion.

"Tu Xingzi, guard the surroundings well!" Yan Xing ordered Tu Xingzi with a solemn expression.

Tu Xingzi also knew the gravity of the situation and leaped onto the roof.

"An energy pillar? A high-grade pill is being born..." In the inn, Elder Mo of the Hehuan Sect gazed at the phenomenon with furrowed brows and said softly.

If he could seize the pill, perhaps he could heal the Young Sect Master's injuries.

Tian Guang's injuries were too severe. Right now, they were only being suppressed with pills; to fully recover, a high-grade pill was needed.

"A pill? It's at least a Grade Five pill..."

In a tea house, Jian Wuchen stood side by side with Senior Sister Liu Hanbing. Both looked at the energy pillar with different thoughts.

"Someone is refining a high-grade pill. Interesting!"

In another inn, a girl in green robes watched. If Senior Sister Liu Hanbing were here, she would recognize this girl as being from the Starfall Pavilion.

It was the other elusive Young Pavilion Master, Mu Qingluan!
