Chapter 180 I Will Eventually Become a Saint
"Oh, we've known each other for a long time. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Su Yun had a smile on his face.

"Then I'll be frank: Does the Netherworld Valley possess the foundation of a Saint?"

Xuan Kongzi still had some reservations, so he spoke cryptically.

Su Yun gently stroked the corner of his sleeve with his fingertips and said slowly, "The continent is about to change. To put it bluntly, a Dou Zun is nothing more than a larger ant and cannot cause any trouble."

Only by reaching the level of a Battle Saint can one truly gain some weight and have a chance to survive in this chaotic world... Even if the Netherworld Valley lacks the foundation of a Saint, so what? I will eventually become a Saint.

"I understand."

Xuan Kongzi nodded, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes. He then added a word of caution, saying, "There are some things that are difficult to handle without the protection of a Dou Sheng. Be careful in your actions going forward."

"No need to worry."

Su Yun smiled.

The two looked into each other's eyes, saying nothing more, yet they understood each other perfectly.

Su Yun never underestimated the power of the Pill Tower.

Spirit-nurturing powder is an essential item for the Pill Tower. From the beginning, he had Little Fairy Doctor sell a portion of the Spirit-nurturing powder to the Pill Tower at a low price, both as a gesture of goodwill and to establish a positive relationship.

This is why the source of the Spirit-Nourishing Dust has remained hidden throughout its circulation on the mainland, thanks in no small part to the secret help provided by the Pill Tower.

The meaning behind their veiled exchange at this moment couldn't be clearer:

Previously, the situation could be concealed, but now that the Medicine Clan has intervened to investigate, they may be able to maneuver in the early stages, but as their investigation deepens, given the Medicine Clan's strength, even if the Pill Tower wants to keep it a secret, it will eventually be unable to.

It's time to shut down the business of producing pregnancy-grade powder.

Su Yun naturally understood. As early as when he saved Xiao Yan, he had already sent a message to Little Fairy Doctor through the Soul Guiding Jade, asking her to immediately stop selling the Pregnancy Spirit Powder.

The resources earned from the Pregnancy Spirit Dust have been sufficient during this period. Knowing when to stop is the best long-term strategy.

Afterwards, Su Yun finalized the details of joining the Central Continent Alliance with Xuan Kongzi.

Su Yun asked, "If I join the alliance and receive the protection of the Pill Tower, what responsibilities will I have to bear?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of approval flashed in Xuan Kongzi's eyes, and then he sighed and said, "It's rare to see someone as sensible as you these days."

He twirled his beard with his fingertips, his tone growing heavier: "That's always been the way of the world; if you enjoy power, you must bear its weight."

Recently, many rogue cultivators and Dou Zun have wanted to join the alliance, but these people are used to being idle and are full of selfish thoughts.

They only thought about hiding in the safe haven of the Pill Domain, relying on the power of the Pill Tower to escape the impending chaos, showing absolutely no sense of responsibility.

At this point, Xuan Kongzi shook his head again and said, "Now the Four Directions Pavilion has fallen apart, some have been disbanded, and some have been destroyed."

With their downfall, the four regions of Zhongzhou, which had maintained some order thanks to the checks and balances of the Four Directions Pavilion, were thrown into complete chaos.

Various forces seized the opportunity to carve out their own territories, and fought each other for land and resources, causing great upheaval.

The common people suffer the most. The four regions have long since lost all order, reduced to a barbaric law of the survival of the fittest; the people are living in misery.

The four regions of Zhongzhou mentioned by Xuan Kongzi are the four regions of East, South, West and North, which are divided apart from the central area of ​​Zhongzhou.

Previously, each of the Four Directions Pavilions occupied a region and guarded a territory, hence the name "Four Directions Pavilions." Now that the pillars have collapsed and chaos has arisen, it is only natural.

A hint of compassion flashed in Xuan Kongzi's eyes, seemingly genuine. Su Yun noticed this and nodded in approval.

In this world, people like Xuan Kongzi are truly rare.

"So... the Pill Tower needs the Netherworld Valley to take over the four domains?"

"No need for the four regions."

Xuan Kongzi nodded: "The Flower Sect has taken on the responsibility for the Western Regions, while the Burning Flame Valley will maintain order in the Southern Regions."

Yin Gu has actually joined the alliance... However, Yin Gu has always been a single lineage, so there aren't enough people to protect the region.

Now, only two domains remain, and the Netherworld Valley can handle one of them. The Netherworld Valley boasts two Dou Zun (Battle Venerables), one guarding the main camp and the other maintaining order within the human realm; this shouldn't be a problem. The Pill Tower will also provide assistance.

"it is good."

Su Yun agreed.

"Which do you choose, the Eastern Region or the Northern Region?"

Su Yun pondered for a moment and said, "The Northern Region."

The northern region of Zhongzhou was once the territory of the Fenglei Pavilion, but now it is going to fall into the hands of the Youming Valley.

With the matter settled, Xuan Kongzi smiled slightly.

In fact, according to the rules of the alliance, the ancestor of a power with the foundation of a saint is required to step forward and work for the human race. This was the case for the Fire Cloud Ancestor, the two immortals of the Flower Sect, and the half-saint of the Sound Valley.

However, considering that the Sword Saint had already been targeted by the Medicine Clan, it was somewhat unrealistic to make him appear in the open, so Xuan Kongzi did not force him to do so.

"In that case, welcome to the Netherworld Valley joining the Central Continent Alliance... Let us join hands and work together to protect the land of humanity!"

Xuan Kongzi's expression was solemn, his tone was serious, and his words were firm and resounding.

Su Yun clasped his hands in a fist salute: "With united will, we can overcome any obstacle and celebrate for the human race!"

…………

With the matter of the Pill Domain settled, Su Yun returned to the Netherworld Valley and immediately summoned Little Fairy Doctor and Medusa to explain the alliance in detail.

“Protecting the Northern Region is the only right thing to do.”

Little Fairy Doctor lowered her head. Having grown up in Qingshan Town, she understood best the hardships of ordinary people.

A hint of worry flashed in Medusa's narrow, beautiful eyes: "I wonder if the upheaval in the Central Plains will affect the Northwest Continent."

She was worried about the snake people tribe.

Su Yun smiled and said, "Instead of worrying too much, you should focus on your cultivation. When you become strong enough, with your protection, no one will dare to disturb the snake people tribe."

Your cultivation level should also be improved.

Medusa's beautiful eyes brightened slightly.

Immediately, Su Yun started refining pills, creating a Breakthrough Pill for Medusa.

Two months later, she lived up to Su Yun's expectations and successfully advanced to the Dou Zun level.

Su Yun looked at Medusa, whose aura was still unstable, and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad. From now on, you will be responsible for guarding the Netherworld Valley, while Xian'er will go to unify the Northern Region and establish a new order."

A hint of suspicion flashed across Medusa's beautiful face: "Then what are you doing?"

"As for me, of course I'm going to cause trouble... cough cough, to travel the continent and find an opportunity to break through to the Saint Realm."

Su Yun said solemnly, "Once I break through to the Saint Realm, the Netherworld Valley will have no more worries!"

Medusa rolled her eyes dramatically.

She strongly suspected that Su Yun helped her break through to the next level just so he could have some peace and quiet and go off and fool around!
Little Fairy Doctor covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "Teacher, you can go without worry. We'll take care of things in the Netherworld Valley."

Medusa coldly said, "Hmph, if you return before you've advanced to the Saint realm, see how we teach you a lesson!"

"Don't worry."

Su Yun curled the corner of his mouth.

No matter what, the two women had followed him all the way from the Northwest Continent, so they could more or less guess some of his secrets.

Fortunately, both women silently supported Su Yun without any complaints.
