Chapter 229: Great Background

Tianqing City.

Qingming Pavilion.

Venerable Bai Xuan of the Tai Xuan Sect and Venerable Ling Quan of the Qingming Chamber of Commerce stood on the pavilion, confronting each other.

"Old man Ling Quan, don't tell me it wasn't you who deliberately let that alchemist go. I captured hundreds of cultivators who were inside and outside the commercial street at that time. They all indicated that after the cave heaven descended, the Qingming Chamber of Commerce immediately blocked the commercial street. Some cultivators even saw you appear outside the cave heaven with their own eyes!"

The long-bearded old man in white Daoist robes questioned. Opposite him, Venerable Ling Quan said lightly: "I have already helped your Tai Xuan Sect post the wanted order you issued at the first opportunity. What else do you want me to do?"

"That alchemist's master is Pill Venerable Fire Dragon. You should understand the meaning of this title."

"The life and death of your Tai Xuan Sect's true disciple is indeed important, but I cannot offend a Pill Venerable directly because of this!"

"Moreover, according to my investigation, in that cave heaven, it was your granddaughter Bai Luo who attacked this alchemist first!"

"In this situation, no matter where it goes, you are the one who is unreasonable. Do you insist on offending a Pill Venerable to avenge your descendant??"

"What kind of bullshit Pill Venerable Fire Dragon? I've never even heard of him. He's not a fifth-grade alchemist from the Heaven-Reaching Tower. The eight great venerables of my Tai Xuan Sect are all fifth-grade alchemists and all have Deity Transformation cultivation. Where did this Pill Venerable Fire Dragon come from?" Venerable Bai Xuan said disdainfully.

Of course, he understood that the person who could kill his granddaughter must also be a disciple of a high-level expert. However, as a first-class power in Qingzhou, the Tai Xuan Sect had many people and great power. Even if he was a disciple of a high-level expert, so what?

At least this Pill Venerable Fire Dragon was mostly just a loose cultivator, at most with Deity Transformation cultivation, plus the skills of a fifth-grade alchemist. With this level, even if he didn't make the other party's disciple pay with their life, to save face, he had to make the other party pay other prices.

"My descendants in this hall are all equipped with soul blood, isn't it so that after they are killed outside, they can find the enemy to demand compensation? What's more, Luo'er is so excellent and lucky to enter the cave heaven." Venerable Bai Xuan thought the more he thought, the more he felt he couldn't let it go.

He must make this Pill Venerable Fire Dragon master and disciple peel a layer of skin.

"Old man Ling Quan, how do you know it was my granddaughter who attacked the other party first?" Venerable Bai Xuan continued to ask.

"Because before you arrived, Alchemist Jiegeng of the Heaven-Reaching Tower also came to Tianqing City for a period of time. Among her subordinates, there was a Foundation Establishment pill attendant who also entered the cave heaven. However, that subordinate did not choose to compete for the cave heaven treasure, watched the whole battle, and witnessed the whole process!" Venerable Ling Quan said lightly.

"Then where is he?" Venerable Bai Xuan's expression sank.

"After learning that this alchemist left Tianqing City, he also left. Old man Bai Xuan, I advise you to be calm. This young alchemist has extraordinary strength and also has very remarkable alchemy talent. The master behind him must be extraordinary, not as simple as you think. Let this matter go,

it may not be a bad thing for you. The cave heaven rules are like this, and your descendant insisted on competing, so you can't blame others."

"Hehe, the hatred of killing a relative is irreconcilable. Even if the master behind him is the Immortal King, it won't work!!!"

"Oh, is that so, old man with a white beard? Then what if the person behind him is me?"

A voice suddenly entered the ears of the two Deity Transformation experts, making their expressions change slightly. They hadn't even noticed anyone approaching.

A woman wearing a green and white feathered coat stepped on the wind and climbed the pavilion, standing on the railing, looking down at the two Deity Transformation experts from above.

"Where did this Nascent Soul child come from? Fellow Daoist Ling Quan, can anyone climb your Qingming Pavilion and be presumptuous now?" Venerable Bai Xuan said, then realized something.

"Wait, you know that alchemist? Could it be that you are the so-called Pill Venerable Fire Dragon?" Venerable Bai Xuan looked at the feathered woman, just wanting to raise his hand to suppress her, when suddenly a terrifying pressure locked onto him tightly.

And onto Venerable Ling Quan as well.

Cold sweat flowed down the two, goosebumps rose all over their bodies, and their brains went blank for an instant. Even when facing the Void Profound ancestor in the sect, Venerable Bai Xuan had never felt such a suffocating premonition of death.

After everything went pitch black before his eyes, light slowly reappeared. He saw the token held by the feathered woman, and he swallowed his saliva. The terrifying beast shape on the token made Venerable Bai Xuan almost kneel down, his throat extremely dry.

"The might of the Demon Emperor, Saintess Token..."

"You are, the Demon Court Saintess!"

"Pill Venerable Fire Dragon... Fire Dragon, Dragon, the master of that young alchemist is not human, but a demon beast, a fire dragon, a member of the Demon Court!!" At this instant, Venerable Bai Xuan understood everything.

And Venerable Ling Quan confirmed his conjecture even more. However, he had thought that the Pill Venerable Fire Dragon was just a "wild demon dragon," who knew he actually came from the Demon Court!

The Demon Emperor of the Demon Court, even among all Demon Emperor-level demon beasts, was a presence with top-tier combat power.

This was a top-tier demon race power comparable to the Heaven-Reaching Tower, far from what the Tai Xuan Sect could compare to.

And the three Saintesses of the Demon Court were known to everyone, especially the woman in front of him. Venerable Bai Xuan gradually recalled, the Third Saintess of the Demon Court, Xu Qingyao, a monster with the bloodline of the Peacock Demon Clan, with combat power nearly invincible at the Nascent Soul level, and even had several Deity Transformation Demon Emperors guarding her.

Some time ago, a Deity Transformation sect provoked this demon woman, leading to the sect being destroyed.

Kicked an iron plate... In an instant, Venerable Bai Xuan couldn't speak.

"Saintess..." His legs bent slightly, just wanting to say something, but Xu Qingyao saw that the other party didn't really want to avenge his descendant and was a coward, so she lost the idea of fighting and said uninterestingly:

"Forget it, seeing that your granddaughter died and my people are fine, I won't make things difficult for you. Cancel the wanted order and apologize publicly."

"Thank you, Saintess." Venerable Bai Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, his body leaning slightly.

That day.

The Tai Xuan Sect removed the wanted order for the Nameless Alchemist, and Venerable Bai Xuan apologized publicly, stating that he was just blinded by momentary anger, that his descendant died due to cave heaven rules, and that he shouldn't vent his anger on others. During this period, he was willing to compensate with gifts for the influence and slander caused to the Demon Court's Pill Venerable Fire Dragon and the disciple of Pill Venerable Fire Dragon...

The entire Tianqing City was in an uproar. The cultivators felt they had eaten a big melon. The alchemist involved in the cave heaven actually had a master who was a member of the Demon Court!

Humans taking demon beasts as masters, although not unheard of, was very rare!

If the power behind him was the Demon Court... no wonder Venerable Bai Xuan of the Tai Xuan Sect was so cowardly.

That was one of the top-tier demon beast powers...

"Senior Sister..." At this time, Ouyang Hao, standing above the Nameless Pill Pavilion, asked: "This Pill Venerable Fire Dragon is obviously made up by Junior Brother. Your purpose in doing this..."

Xu Qingyao glanced at him and said: "Although that guy wants to refine pills outside, in my opinion, given his ability to cause trouble, forget it. This fake identity is not bad. Let him follow me with this fake identity. Don't worry, I have a way to make him agree!" ===== CHAPTER 230 =====

Xu Qingyao glanced at him and said, "Although that guy wants to refine pills outside, in my opinion, given his ability to stir up trouble, let's forget it. This fake identity is not bad; just let him follow by my side with this fake identity. Don't worry, I have a way to make him agree!"
