Chapter 147: Coveting the Nine-Rank Profound Pill

Gu Nanhai and the elders of the various clans around him, whose faces had originally been calm, saw their expressions turn ugly the moment they saw that person.

Because he recognized this person; it was precisely the Hunmo Laoren of the Soul Clan at the five-star Dou Saint realm.

"Hunmo Laoren, it's actually you?" Gu Nanhai's voice was filled with shock and anger, his chest heaving violently, as if a raging fire were burning inside.

The elders of the other clans also had ashen faces; they had never expected that the Soul Clan would send Hunmo Laoren to snatch the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame this time.

A sense of foreboding could not help but well up in their hearts; the Soul Clan was clearly prepared this time.

Not only had Hun Miesheng hidden his strength, but even a five-star Dou Saint expert like Hunmo Laoren had been sent.

What did this mean? It meant the Soul Clan was determined to get the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, and it also meant that they would likely not be able to end this well today.

"Hunmo Laoren, your Soul Clan acts like this; are you not afraid of inciting public anger?" An elder stood out, his voice trembling, but his tone was exceptionally firm.

He looked straight into Hunmo Laoren's eyes and questioned him.

However, Hunmo Laoren just smiled indifferently, his laughter sinister and terrifying, as if it had come from the Nine Nether Hell.

He glanced at that elder with contempt and said indifferently, "Public anger? In the face of absolute strength, what can public anger do? Today, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame is destined to belong to our Soul Clan."

Hunmo Laoren ignored these people and turned his gaze toward a certain direction in the void. He spoke indifferently, his voice revealing unquestionable confidence: "Old monster of the Small Pill Tower, since this old man has already appeared, you don't need to hide anymore, right?"

Hunmo Laoren's voice echoed in the air, carrying a hint of contempt and provocation.

Hunmo Laoren's casual words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, shocking everyone present.

"Old monster of the Small Pill Tower?" Gu Nanhai and the other elders exchanged a suspicious look.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was also stunned, and a thought suddenly emerged in his heart.

Could it be that the Danta Ancestor had also come?

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing thought of that Nine-Rank Profound Pill that was just one step away from reaching the Nine-Rank Golden Pill level.

And the person who appeared next confirmed Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's guess.

At this moment, a green ox slowly emerged from the void. It had a sturdy build, its fur was as smooth as silk, and its eyes flashed with the light of wisdom.

On the back of that green ox sat a young boy steadily. His face was youthful, but his eyes revealed a calmness that transcended his age.

The boy's mouth moved slightly, and an old voice that was completely inconsistent with his appearance came out: "I knew it, the Soul Clan would definitely not abide by the rules."

Although this voice was not loud, it seemed to have the power to penetrate people's hearts, making everyone present feel an inexplicable pressure.

"Green Ox Herder, Nine-Rank Profound Pill!" Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing recognized this legendary existence.

He had only heard of it in the original work, but this was his first time seeing it in reality.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's eyes became scorching hot, and his breathing became heavy.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's excitement was like a storm, difficult to suppress.

It was no wonder Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was so excited; something like a Nine-Rank Profound Pill was an extremely rare existence throughout the entire continent.

Not to mention it was a Nine-Rank Profound Pill with the strength of a six-star Dou Saint; Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing dared not imagine how much energy it contained within its body, and he dared not imagine that if he could refine this Nine-Rank Profound Pill, what level his own strength would rise to...

Turning his gaze toward the herder, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's eyes were filled with scorching desire, as if he were looking at a peerless beauty without a shred of clothing, but that beauty did not come from her appearance, but from the endless energy contained within that Nine-Rank Profound Pill.

"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Cai Lin noticed the change in Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's expression and asked with some confusion.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing took a deep breath, his gaze locked tightly on the herder on the green ox in the distance, his voice carrying a trace of shock that was difficult to hide: "Wife, do you know who that herder is?"

Cai Lin shook her head slightly, her gaze also following toward the herder, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"He... is the Ancestor of Danta."

"Husband, rest assured, even if his strength is a six-star Dou Saint, he is no match for me!" Cai Lin thought Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was afraid that this Danta Ancestor had come to snatch the Demon Flame from them, so she said confidently.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing shook his head slightly, a trace of complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "Wife, you misunderstood. I am not worried about him contending with us for the Demon Flame, but rather..."

He paused, took a deep breath, and continued: "He is not just a six-star Dou Saint, but a Nine-Rank Profound Pill that is only one step away from reaching the Nine-Rank Golden Pill level!"

Cai Lin's pupils shrank abruptly, and she looked at the herder in disbelief, her eyes filled with shock and doubt.

She examined the herder carefully, only then discovering that there was indeed a faint medicinal fragrance wafting from his body.

Just now she had thought it was because he had been contaminated by alchemy, but she never expected it to be a Nine-Rank Profound Pill.

"Nine-Rank Profound Pill!"

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing gently held Cai Lin's hand and said: "Wife, this Nine-Rank Profound Pill is of vital importance to me. In a moment, you must find an opportunity to ambush him and help me take him down!"

"Wife, the energy of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame is too violent; with my current strength, refining it is still somewhat dangerous, but if I can refine this Nine-Rank Profound Pill first, then I can safely refine that Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame!" Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was afraid Cai Lin would not agree, so he quickly added.

However, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was overthinking this.

Cai Lin had once been the notorious Queen Character: Character: Mei Du Sha; she would not be soft-hearted when killing people, let alone when it was just a medicinal pill.

"Alright, I will find an opportunity to strike in a moment!" Cai Lin agreed directly without even thinking.

Whether it was being able to help Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing improve his strength or being able to let Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing refine the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame more safely, Cai Lin had no reason to refuse.

Being able to help Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, let alone just a medicinal pill, even if it were a person, Cai Lin would not have the slightest hesitation.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, who had originally thought he would need to do some persuading, was stunned to see Cai Lin be so straightforward.

But then he remembered that Cai Lin had also been the notorious Queen Character: Character: Mei Du Sha in the past.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing smiled; ever since Cai Lin had married into the Jiang Family, she had become gentle and virtuous, which had made him forget her former identity for a time.

"Wife, after it's done, your husband will definitely thank you properly!" Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing promised with a wicked smile.

Anyway, fulfilling this promise was a kind of enjoyment for both him and Cai Lin...

Seeing Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's wicked smile, how could Cai Lin not know what he meant by "thank you."

Cai Lin said nothing, just rolled her eyes at him.

Regarding Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's strange requests, although Cai Lin was resistant on the surface, she had to admit that she was also looking forward to them in her heart.

While Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was teasing Cai Lin with words, in the crowd, the two-star Dou Saint Great Elder of the Small Pill Tower shouted excitedly: "Ancestor!"

"Hehe, you must be Xiao Mo; managing Danta for so many years, it's been hard on you!"

The Great Elder's eyes were filled with tears, and he shook his head to indicate it was not hard, that it was what he should do.

"Old monster, you do have some self-awareness, knowing that our clans had designs on you, so you transformed into this appearance!" Hunmo Laoren did not give the two of them a chance to reminisce and mocked them.

Thanks to "Sky City is Crying" for the 100 book coin tip.

It's been a long time since anyone tipped, I'm a little happy (ˊωˋ*)

The plot of the previous chapters has basically been adapted from the original work, and I found it boring to write, but I couldn't skip it.

I'm getting ready to reach the main text, and I'm quite excited too.
