698: Chapter 698 Myriad Blood Dragon Transformation Pill

Liu Xuan was initially annoyed at being secretly watched, but upon seeing that Great Saint Xumiao had an extraordinary appearance, his irritation immediately lessened by a few points.

There was no helping it; the Cultivation World also cared about looks, and Liu Xuan was at an age full of vigor, so naturally, he could not avoid being conventional.

"Rumor has it that Great Saint Xumiao possesses peerless concealment skills, and few have ever seen her true face. I never expected her to be such a stunning beauty." Liu Xuan praised while admiring her.

Great Saint Xumiao was stunned, feeling bewildered by Liu Xuan's strange focus.

She was of the Yao Race! Not a human; this was merely her transformed body. What meaning did beauty have?

Whether it was a Yao Saint of the Yao Race or a Dao Lord of the Human Race, once one reached the Soul Transformation Realm, who still cared about appearance? When people met, they would praise each other's vast Divine Abilities and profound methods. It had been a long time since anyone had complimented her beauty.

Suddenly! She recalled a term that frequently appeared when she had previously reviewed Liu Xuan's dossier: 'lecher'!

This man, Liu Xuan, had two major hobbies: the first was beautiful women, and the second was having beautiful women bear his children.

Great Saint Xumiao had skimmed over the dossier before, but now she intuitively felt that the word 'lecher' was not just a rumor, but the most accurate description.

Liu Xuan ignored Great Saint Xumiao's strange gaze, walked to a seat on the side, sat down, and asked casually, "You two invited me here just to ask if Old Ancestor Hehuan was killed by me?"

"Now that you know the answer, what do you plan to do next?"

Queen of Merfolk's mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something but stopping, then she turned her head to look at Great Saint Xumiao beside her.

Great Saint Xumiao pondered for a moment and asked, "Why did Sect Master Liu kill Old Ancestor Hehuan?"

Liu Xuan had admitted it too easily, and Great Saint Xumiao did not really trust him. Her question had two layers of purpose: on the surface, she was asking about Liu Xuan's motive for killing Old Ancestor Hehuan, but in reality, she wanted to judge whether Old Ancestor Hehuan was truly killed by him based on Liu Xuan's answer.

"You don't know?"

Liu Xuan looked surprised. "Old Ancestor Hehuan came knocking just when my wife had just advanced to a Great Cultivator. He not only wanted to seize the Joyous Union Sect but also wanted to snatch my Dao Companion, so I had no choice but to kill him."

After speaking, Liu Xuan spread his hands. "I, Liu, do not enjoy killing. I tried to persuade him to leave many times, but he was stubborn and refused to go. You tell me, did he deserve to die?"

Queen of Merfolk and Great Saint Xumiao were dumbfounded. If everything Liu Xuan said was true, Old Ancestor Hehuan died truly unjustly and miserably!

Throughout the history of the entire Cultivation World, which Late-stage Spirit Transformation Great Cultivator did not die in a grand and spectacular fashion?

Conflicts over Daoist orthodoxy, great changes in heaven and earth, opportunities for Immortal Ascension... Compared to these, once Old Ancestor Hehuan's cause of death was revealed, he would likely be mocked for countless years.

Liu Xuan spoke reasonably and logically, but it was hard for people to believe, and Great Saint Xumiao did not know if it was true or false.

Therefore, she changed the topic, intending to find a Breakthrough from other aspects.

"I heard that the Dao Court intends to establish four regional Dao Courts and attack my Long Whale Palace. Sect Master Liu has already allied with the Dao Court. Aren't you afraid of the Dao Court finding out that you are meeting with us now?"

"It doesn't matter!" Liu Xuan leaned on the armrest of the chair and smiled. "It is just an alliance, not a submission to the Dao Court, so why should I be afraid of them?"

"The Dao Court wants to establish a branch in the East Sea, and the Prefecture Lord of Tianheng wants to be the East Sea Regional Lord, but I also want this position. I can ally with him, and I can also ally with you all!"

Once the Lord of the Dao Court issued the decree to establish the four regional Dao Courts, the will within the Dao Court was indeed unified, but it brought new problems: the interests of the original Sects in the four regions would be damaged.

The Buddhist Sect, Beast Taming Sect, Joyous Union Sect, and the Heavenly Insect Sect of the Northern Plains—these Sects that had originally developed in the four regions were not willing to have a Regional Lord placed above their heads.

The Buddhist Sect was currently being attacked. Although the Dao Court was trying to win over the other three Sects, everyone was just going through the motions and not actually cooperating much.

The Joyous Union Sect was relatively cooperative, but the Beast Taming Sect was said to have a very tough attitude, almost to the point of fighting.

"Does Sect Master Liu mean to feign an alliance with the Dao Court, while actually wanting to be the Regional Lord yourself?"

Great Saint Xumiao said with a serious expression, "Treating the Dao Court like monkeys, ordinary people cannot afford their retaliation in the future!"

"Who can say for sure about the future?" Liu Xuan beckoned the Three-Headed Demon Python to his side and casually tossed it a few Beast Pills. "I like to focus on the present when doing things; I don't like to consider things too far into the future."

Regarding the Dao Court, Liu Xuan's plan was to stall as long as possible and deal with it when he could no longer stall. All he wanted was to delay time. As for future retaliation, in ten or twenty years, it was uncertain who would be retaliating against whom!

Great Saint Xumiao frowned. Liu Xuan's disregard for the Dao Court seemed arrogant, yet it gave her a strange feeling that it should be this way. She could not see through Liu Xuan, nor could she distinguish how much of his words were true and how much were false.

Liu Xuan saw her inner struggle, so he clapped his hands and said, "You won't believe me even if I tell you all this, so I'd better give you something practical first!"

A bottle of Medicinal Pill appeared in Liu Xuan's hand and then flew toward the two people above.

After Great Saint Xumiao opened the bottle stopper, Liu Xuan introduced it, "This is the Myriad Blood Dragon Transformation Pill, a fourth-tier top-grade Medicinal Pill. When combined with the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture, it can achieve a fifth-tier Flood Dragon body, which is enough to raise your combat power by a level and significantly increase your potential."

The Myriad Blood Dragon Transformation Pill was originally a Medicinal Pill Liu Xuan researched to increase the cultivation of those Yao Race descendants. Later, on a whim, he added a trace of runes drawn with his own Divine Soul and Essence Blood, hidden deep within the Medicinal Pill. The Yao Beasts would not notice anything when consuming it, but once they combined it with cultivating the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture to improve their Bloodline Origin, their entire Bloodline would be easily influenced and controlled by Liu Xuan.

"I believe you have also felt it; the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture is a sixth-tier Yao Race Cultivation Technique and an Opportunity for Immortal Ascension."

Another bottle of Myriad Blood Dragon Transformation Pill appeared in Liu Xuan's hand. This time, he did not throw it to Queen of Merfolk and Great Saint Xumiao, but threw it directly to the Three-Headed Demon Python lying on the ground.

"You don't believe me?"

Seeing Great Saint Xumiao holding the Medicinal Pill with a hesitant expression, Liu Xuan's eyes turned into vertical pupils, and an aura of Supreme and majestic True Dragon Bloodline surged out. "Now, do you believe me?"

"You... you are also of the Yao Race?"

Great Saint Xumiao was frightened by the aura on Liu Xuan and took two steps back, while Queen of Merfolk beside her was so scared she was left with a dazed expression.

True Dragon Bloodline, True Dragon pressure—it was not about how strong this aura was, but that innate aura of a superior Yao Race Supreme that made their hearts involuntarily tremble and feel fear.

Liu Xuan withdrew his aura and shook his head slowly. "Yes and no. There is no need to distinguish so clearly between the Human Race and the Yao Race; they are all the same."

Great Saint Xumiao calmed down, and a faint smile appeared on her face, which was as warm and smooth as jade. "The secrets and foundation Sect Master Liu possesses are far more than I imagined."

"However, you are giving us so many benefits; what do you need us to pay as a return?"

"That depends on your sincerity!"

Liu Xuan looked at them with burning eyes. "Being my Dao Companion is naturally the best. If you are unwilling, then become my subordinates and keep an eye on the Long Whale Clan for me. Everything must be exchanged with merit."
