Chapter 1234
Wait, ancestor, I'm a bit confused. Bai Xinlan raised her hand, speaking dazedly.
Since you, ancestor, don't even have the recipe for the Luotian Snake King Pill, how could he have it?
The Luotian Snake King Pill is the king pill of their Luotian White Snake Clan, the true king pill, an eighth-grade pill, situated above the Luotian Pill and the Snake King Pill; even the ancestor lacks its recipe, so how could Qinglong Daoren possibly have the recipe? Yet why does the ancestor say he has it?
Isn't this self-contradictory? The Luotian Pill and the Snake King Pill were taken from their hands, so it's normal for Qinglong Daoren to know about them, but the Luotian Snake King Pill did not come from their hands; therefore, by rights, Qinglong Daoren shouldn't know about the Luotian Snake King Pill, so why does the ancestor say he does?
What secret is there in this?
Or did the ancestor also go meet him? What deal did they reach?
What exactly is the secret here? Bai Xinlan needs to know at least a bit; otherwise, she won't be able to communicate well.
Luotian Old Ancestor said with a smiling squint: "Girl, the ancestor also doesn't know; he might know, he might not know. But according to what you said, that person is able to refine Luotian Pills and Snake King Pills; in just a short year, he mastered two kinds of pills, refining this many completely—then his pill refining skill is certainly not bad."
Only by thoroughly mastering the two pill recipes can one refine such complete pills so quickly; then the ancestor can conclude one thing: this kid's pill refining talent is truly strong, and with such strong talent, he can certainly comprehend one of the two recipes from them.
The recipe for the Luotian Snake King Pill exists within those two pill recipes; comprehending it requires extremely high perceptiveness.
So, do you understand?
Luotian Old Ancestor's gaze fell on Bai Xinlan as he reached out and rubbed her head; in the blink of an eye, the girl had grown up—back then she was just a cute, innocent little girl, and now she has become a tall, graceful beauty.
Ah, I see; ancestor, you should have said so earlier—I thought you had gone to meet him. Bai Xinlan patted her chest, somewhat worried.
If the ancestor were to meet him, wouldn't that make her unnecessary?
Luotian Old Ancestor gave a bitter smile: "To be honest, I also want to go meet him, but, ancestor my situation, you know it too well—I even if I wanted to leave, I cannot leave."
She is trapped here and cannot leave.
Or rather, she herself has encountered a problem, preventing her from leaving.
Bai Xinlan blinked: "Right, I almost forgot—ancestor, you cannot leave this place."
She hurried over to comfort the ancestor, telling her not to be sad, for she will surely find a way to help the ancestor leave this place.
Ancestor, rest assured, I will definitely find a way to obtain the Luotian Snake King Pill and let you leave the cave heaven.
Luotian Old Ancestor nodded in relief: "Good, I'll wait."
My girl has grown up, understands to consider things for me, ancestor; I, the ancestor, am very gratified.
He rubbed her head again, and Bai Xinlan enjoyed the ancestor's caress; in her eyes, the ancestor was like her parents.
After they chatted for a long time, Bai Xinlan left the cave heaven and immediately found Bai Meng Holy Maiden.
Bai Meng Holy Maiden immediately appeared, respectfully clasping her fists: "Clan Chief, have you emerged from seclusion?"
Hmm. Bai Xinlan lowered her gaze, surprised: "Bai Meng, has your cultivation broken through?"
Bai Meng smiled and nodded: "Not bad, Clan Chief; my cultivation has increased again, and I will soon be able to step into the Seek Dao realm."
The Seek Dao realm is near at hand; her cultivation broke through again, reaching the True Monarch Eightfold Heaven; without incident, in the next ten years she could make a push for the Seek Dao realm, at which point she would become a Strong One of the Seek Dao realm for the Luotian White Snake Clan, adding to the clan's top combat strength.
Good, good, good. Bai Xinlan said "good" three times and nodded in satisfaction.
Bai Meng Holy Maiden is her key focus; in terms of talent, she is not inferior to her.
This girl is excellent in every way; she is the future clan chief of the Luotian White Snake Clan, and now she is already able to shoulder the main responsibility.
Very good, Bai Meng; you have made me very satisfied. These years you haven't slacked off; it seems that in a few decades you will be able to take over the position of clan chief.
Bai Meng Holy Maiden replied anxiously: "Clan Chief, I do not have such an intention."
Bai Xinlan waved her hand: "You have this ability and this necessity; basically all affairs of the Luotian White Snake Clan are entrusted to you to handle, while I am just a hands-off manager; in the future I may rarely appear, and I entrust the clan chief position to you—I am reassured."
As for you, don't refuse; when you advance to the Seek Dao realm, that will be the day you inherit the clan chief position—I hope you make the necessary preparations.
Yes, disciple will certainly not let you down. Bai Meng Holy Maiden immediately gave a proper reply.
That day, she had waited a long time; she also knew this was Bai Xinlan's test of her. Today, Bai Xinlan finally loosened her lips and gave her a promise.
These years of effort have finally been rewarded.
Bai Meng Holy Maiden gratefully said: "Master, I will surely lead the Luotian White Snake Clan to restore its former glory."
Good, good, as your teacher I believe in you. Bai Xinlan felt even more relieved.
They are clansmen, also master-disciple, and even more so, friends.
As for Bai Meng, she is extremely satisfied; in means, mindset, or breadth of vision, she surpasses other clan members—previously there was some gap in strength, but now there is none.
Over these years, Bai Meng's strength has leapt forward, making Bai Xinlan very happy.
Once the final shortcoming is made up, there will be no shortcomings left.
By the way, have you been to Longshe Shan? Bai Xinlan said lazily.
Bai Meng said solemnly: "Reporting to the clan chief, I haven't gone these past few years; there are still many pills from the last trade; the clan members' strength has increased considerably, but it has also attracted the attention of the Mangshan Demon Palace."
The Right Dharma Protector Xu Kongwang seems to have been watching us all along; especially recently, they have sent many people to watch us.
I have ordered the clan members to go out as little as possible, not let them meet Xu Kongwang, and try to reduce conflict.
Bai Xinlan sat up, her eyes slightly narrowing: "You've done well; hasn't that old bastard Xu Kongwang given up yet?"
How could this person suddenly pay attention to our Luotian White Snake Clan? As far as I know, isn't he in the midst of something important?
Bai Meng explained: "Clan chief, not long ago, wasn't Lan Tiansheng watching us? During the last trade, I almost caught him, but he got away; then he seemed not to have returned to report, but instead entered the Formation inside Longshe Shan, and so far has not come out."
Lan Tiansheng is very likely dead inside Longshe Shan; Xu Kongwang probably came to look for his trace.
Bai Xinlan frowned tightly: "When did Lan Tiansheng go in there? That Formation is not something he can break."
The Formation of Longshe Shan is not simple; even she cannot break it.
If Lan Tiansheng goes in, he will likely be trapped inside.
