Chapter 766

~7 min read 1,326 words

If it weren't for needing Xiao Yixian, he wouldn't be here haggling with the other party; he would have already thrown them out of the Ye Institute.

And if the other party still dares not to trade this time, then it shows that this guy Xiao Yan simply doesn't know the address of that half-saint's tomb.

All of that before was just an attempt to get something for nothing!

Of course, if the other party is willing to trade, then he can explain things clearly later.

He has a lot of information about the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, but he just doesn't know its exact location.

However, although he doesn't know the exact location, he does know the time when the demonic fire will appear, as well as a lot of related information.

Even without the location, considering that the demonic fire space where the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire resides was set up by an absolute expert like the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon.

Now, throughout the Dou Qi Continent, it's hard to find a few experts who can compare with him.

Furthermore, the information about the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is, on the surface, far more important than the information about the location of the half-saint expert's tomb, and he never actually said he had the exact location of the demonic fire space.

Even if he were to break the heavens later, he would still be in the right.

And upon hearing Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yan's heart sank sharply once again.

He simply doesn't know where that place is now, so how could he lead everyone there?

Of course, he naturally couldn't outright admit that he doesn't know.

Thus, after a moment of silence, Xiao Yan spoke: 'It could be possible, but I currently have no strong allies by my side, and you are my enemy; I would absolutely never leave Saint Dan City with you.'

Having said that, Xiao Yan didn't linger any longer and walked straight out of the hall.

After calculating in his mind the time needed to absorb the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire and to rescue his teacher, he continued: 'Give me about three or four months; once I gather some strong allies, we can then make the trade.'

After all, given Lin Feng's attitude, whether he wants to exchange information for information or trade information for his teacher's belongings, the other party will need to verify.

And right now, he doesn't know the address of that tomb.

Therefore, he can only leave temporarily.

Wait until he truly obtains the location of that tomb later, then come back to discuss terms with Lin Feng.

"Husband, seeing Xiao Yan leave so readily, he probably doesn't know the tomb of that half-saint expert who also possesses the same Misfortune Poison Body as I do. My earlier guess is that his words might have been deceiving us."

Watching Xiao Yan walk straight out of her field of view, Xiao Yixian immediately furrowed her brows and said to Lin Feng beside her.

As she spoke, a deep disappointment also appeared on her gentle, pretty face.

"No, that place should exist; otherwise, Xiao Yan and his master wouldn't have been able to produce the poison pill method. But from Xiao Yan's reaction this time, he likely doesn't know the exact location."

Upon hearing those words, Lin Feng shook his head and replied.

He also felt a bit disappointed about not obtaining the exact location of that half-saint expert's tomb.

However, he also knows that in this situation, he cannot rush.

After all, Xiao Yan himself currently doesn't know that place; even if he were to capture the former, he still wouldn't be able to extract the needed information.

"So you mean that the poison pill method you obtained from those two people earlier might also have come from that tomb?"

Upon hearing Lin Feng say that, Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes lit up instantly, and her tone turned excited again.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng nodded, casually found an excuse and said: "It should be correct, after all Yao Chen isn't a Misfortune Poison Body, and he didn't possess multiple different strange fires back then. No matter how you look at it, that scroll of secret technique couldn't have been developed by Yao Chen."

"That makes sense."

As for the reason given, Xiao Yixian also felt it was extremely plausible.

After all, from any angle, Lin Feng's speculation is quite reasonable.

Next, she turned her beautiful eyes back to Lin Feng and asked: "So what should we do now?"

"Wait, we can only wait until Xiao Yan starts taking action before we can carry out our previous plan."

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng spoke with a somewhat helpless tone.

After all, their goal this time is to fish in troubled waters, to seize as many soul bodies as possible from the Soul Hall.

But since Xiao Yan hasn't made a move, they cannot act.

As for Xiao Yan, after returning to his residence and saying a word to the others, he went to the Three Giants of the Pill Tower to retrieve the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire that had been stored with a few people.

Immediately afterward, he rented the best alchemy room in Saint Dan City and entered it, beginning to absorb the strange fire.

After all, he also knows that his current eight-star Dou Zong strength is beginning to struggle against his enemies.

Therefore, he must first raise his own strength to gain a sense of security.

And the way to quickly increase his strength is naturally to absorb the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire, the only one in his possession that hasn't been absorbed yet.

However, his seclusion has caused Lin Feng and the few women still waiting eagerly in the Ye Institute to suffer.

He originally thought that Xiao Yan would set off in these two days to go to the Soul Hall to rescue Yao Chen.

But after waiting six or seven days straight, there was still no news from Xiao Yan.

Having no choice, Lin Feng had to use a spatial jade slip to summon Zi Yan back.

Finally, Lin Feng learned from the mouth of the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon that Zi Yan had sent to monitor Xiao Yan.

That guy Xiao Yan, as soon as he left the Ye Institute, immediately went to see the Three Giants of the Pill Tower.

However, because the Three Giants are too strong, that Tai Xu Ancient Dragon did not dare to approach.

Therefore, the conversation among those few people yielded no clues.

All that was known is that afterward, Xiao Yan rented a top-tier cultivation chamber and entered it to go into seclusion.

"What, you're saying that Xiao Yan has a Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire in his possession?!"

Inside the Ye Institute, Lin Feng stared in astonishment at the burly man before him and exclaimed loudly in disbelief.

"Yes, if it were any other strange fire, I might not really be able to sense it. But because the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire also contains dragon prestige, I was fortunate enough to perceive it."

Upon hearing Lin Feng's question, the burly man immediately nodded and replied earnestly.

After receiving that affirmative answer from the man, Lin Feng's brows furrowed into a knot as he muttered: "This is strange; if that strange fire is the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire, then isn't it highly likely that it was given to Xiao Yan by the Flame Valley?"

"Otherwise, given Xiao Yan's eight-star Dou Zong strength, trying to seize the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire would most likely result in a backlash. After all, that strange fire ranks twelfth on the Strange Fire List. Even I, without any preparation, would probably suffer a loss."

Lin Feng, puzzled beyond measure, after thinking for a long time and still unable to find an answer, could only choose to temporarily suppress this thought.
