Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 221, shall we help introduce Protector Wu?

"It smells so good!"

A look of longing appeared in her big eyes, Zi Yan's small nose trembled slightly as she smelled the rich fragrance of the pill and felt the immense energy contained within it. Her throat bobbed slightly.

"Did it work?!"

Upon smelling the rich fragrance of the elixir, a refreshing sensation instantly washed over my depleted mind, and I felt a slight surge in my soul.

Cai Lin raised her head slightly. This was the first time she had ever witnessed the extraordinary phenomenon of a sixth-grade pill being born, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of shock.

Looking at the black-robed figure under the towering pillar of light, recalling the scenes since they met, a slight smile appeared on her lips, and her beautiful eyes shone with a hint of pride.

Suddenly, Cai Lin turned her head and looked in a certain direction, where several powerful auras were rapidly approaching.

Upon sensing the somewhat familiar auras of two of them, they did not barge into the mansion directly. Instead, they paused at the entrance, narrowed their eyes for a moment, and then slowly withdrew their gaze, ignoring them completely.

Several auras had already arrived around the house, but their cultivation levels were too weak and they showed no obvious hostility, so she didn't bother with them!

This is the human capital. She doesn't know what Xiao Bai's relationship with them is. She doesn't want to cause trouble for him without them showing obvious hostility!

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed

As his soul sensed the restless energy within the cauldron gradually calming down, Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief. With a change in the hand seal, the two shimmering, dreamlike seven-colored liquids suspended inside the furnace suddenly unleashed a powerful devouring force.

The towering pillar of light trembled slightly, then shattered abruptly, transforming into a seven-colored cloud that rolled towards the alchemy furnace below.

In a short while, it was completely absorbed by the seven-colored liquid in the cauldron.

With a wave of his hand, two wisps of liquid shot out of the alchemy furnace, hovering in his palm. After examining them for a moment, he nodded in satisfaction.

"As expected of me, peak sixth rank, succeeded on the first try!"

Xiao Bai's murmur startled Cai Lin and Zi Yan, who had come over with great joy, and they couldn't help but roll their eyes.

"How come I never noticed before how shameless you are!" Cai Lin glanced at the narcissistic man with disdain in her beautiful eyes and snorted softly.

"Exactly! Xiao Bai, how could you say something like that? It makes me blush!" Zi Yan crossed her arms, looked at him with disdain in her big eyes, and pouted.

"!" Xiao Bai.

Too lazy to pay attention to these two women who had no sense of humor, he poured the colorful dreamlike liquid in his palm into two jade bottles he had prepared beforehand, waved his hand to put away the alchemy furnace on the ground, and got up to stretch his limbs.

"Do you want to see those people outside? Or should I go and send them away?"

Looking at the faint weariness between Xiao Bai's brows, Cai Lin's cool voice carried a hint of concern.

"I'll go take a look!" Rubbing his temples, Xiao Bai turned and walked outside.

"etc."

"I'll go with you!" Cai Lin said calmly as she walked to Xiao Bai's side, who had stopped.

"No need to force yourself, I can go by myself!" Xiao Bai said gently, his gaze lingering briefly on the alluring woman beside him.

He understood that Cai Lin was worried about him; otherwise, given her aloof nature, she wouldn't want to interact with others much at all.

"Don't worry! I don't care about them. In my eyes, they're no different from the sand in the Tagor Desert!"

With her eyebrows slightly raised and her beautiful eyes gentle, Cai Lin gazed at Xiao Bai for a moment before letting out a soft laugh.

"Alright!" Xiao Bai took her hand and laughed loudly, "If my darling queen doesn't like anyone later, don't hold back, just kill them!"

"Do you really think I'm some kind of ruthless, bloodthirsty demon?!"

A slight smile appeared on Cai Lin's lips, and she rolled her eyes at him, knowing he was joking and trying to make her happy.

"Let's go!" Xiao Bai smiled slightly and walked out hand in hand with her.

Behind her, Zi Yan glared at him resentfully and stomped her little foot. That bastard Xiao Bai had forgotten about her again!

Sure enough, this stinky guy just likes big ones!

Looking down at her petite figure, Zi Yan felt an overwhelming longing to grow up!

main hall.

"Haha. I was just wondering this morning why Mr. Bai didn't attend the conference today. Turns out he's given us a wonderful surprise!"

Jia Xingtian walked into the hall with a big smile, looked at Xiao Bai in the main seat, his eyes lit up, and he smiled warmly.

Behind him, Fama, Haibodong, and others filed in.

Looking up at the figure in the gold and red brocade robe beside Xiao Bai, Hai Bodong's smile froze, and he paused.

"Hehe. Queen Medusa, it's been so long! How have you been?"

Jia Xingtian also saw the alluring woman sitting in the main seat, looking bored and listless, and a hint of shock and fear flashed in his eyes.

He never expected that this ruthless woman, who killed people like chickens, would one day sit obediently next to a man, and judging from the distance, the two seemed to have a very intimate relationship!

"Queen Medusa?!"

Nalan Yanran and Ya Fei, who followed closely behind, paused in their steps, startled, and stared wide-eyed at the alluring woman beside Xiao Bai in disbelief.

As members of a prominent family in the Gama Empire, how could they not have heard of this woman who was renowned throughout the Tagor Desert for her fearsome reputation and beauty!

Ya Fei snapped out of her daze and looked at the two people sitting side by side in front of her. She immediately understood the relationship between them. She bit her red lips lightly, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

Cai Lin, who was examining her fingers, raised her beautiful eyes slightly, glanced at Jia Xingtian who was greeting her, and nodded lightly.

She had fought this old guy before, but judging from his appearance now, he seems to be stuck at the Dou Huang stage, showing no signs of breaking through.

In that case, once the Yunlan Sect matter is settled, this old guy will no longer pose much of a threat to her snake-people's migration plan!

"Hehe, hello sister-in-law!" Xiao Yan came over and greeted her with a smile.

Upon hearing this, a smile flashed in Cai Lin's eyes, and she nodded slightly.

After exchanging greetings, Xiao Yan stood in front of Xiao Bai, head held high, chest out, and said with a serious expression:

"Brother Bai, please allow me to introduce myself. Standing before you is: Yan Xiao, the champion of the 7th Alchemist Conference of the Jia Ma Empire, and a Rank 4 Alchemist Master!"

"!" Xiao Bai.

"!" said the old medicine doctor.

There's no need to say "champion" and "fourth rank" with such bitterness; they can hear you!

"Not bad! You've reached the fourth rank in the blink of an eye. You're no longer the boy who eagerly awaited my return to refine the Foundation Establishment Elixir!"

With a smile, Xiao Bai immediately recalled the scene three years ago when he returned after losing his memory and met the old doctor. Everything seemed as if it were yesterday.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was taken aback, and the scene in his mind that he had refused to let his teacher refine it and instead waited for Brother Bai to do so was also recalled.

While I found my past actions amusing, I also felt a touch of emotion.

How fortunate I am to have met him and my teacher. These two people played an immeasurable role in my resurgence.

Because of Brother Bai, he learned the reason for his decline in cultivation level. It was also because of this reason that he found a teacher, which enabled him to reach his current level in a short period of time!

"Hehe. It seems that young friend Yan Xiao's excellence is inseparable from Mr. Bai's guidance!" Famar said with a smile, stroking his beard as he watched this scene.

"He is indeed very talented, but I never taught him!" Xiao Bai shook his head and said, "His teacher was someone else, but that senior was used to a life of leisure and didn't want to mention his name!"

"I see!"

Fama nodded, deeply shocked. Even someone of Mr. Bai's level had to be addressed as a senior. It seemed that Yan Xiao's teacher was a true master!

During their casual conversation, Xiao Bai's eyes suddenly flickered slightly, a sharp glint flashing across them.

No one else noticed, except for Cai Lin beside him, who tilted her head slightly and looked at Xiao Bai with puzzled eyes. She had just felt the man beside her suddenly surge with anger, and then slowly return to calm.

"I'm fine! It's just that two annoying people came!" Feeling Cai Lin's worried gaze, Xiao Bai shook his head and said softly.

A moment later

"Elder Yun Ling of the Yunlan Sect has come to pay a visit to Mr. Bai!"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"I am Guhe of Yunlan Sect, and I apologize for my intrusion in visiting, Master Bai!"

Two voices suddenly rang out in the sky above the mansion. The people in the hall reacted differently. Fama and Haibodong were indifferent, Jia Xingtian had a strange expression, and Nalan Yanran hesitated.

"Hehe. I didn't expect my new residence to be so lively!"

After glancing at the expressions of everyone in the hall, Xiao Bai's gaze lingered on Nalan Yanran, and he smiled:

"Miss Nalan, since you are from your Yunlan Sect, please go and bring her in!"

"Yes, sir!" Nalan Yanran nodded and stepped out.

Watching her departing figure, Xiao Bai slightly raised his head, and a faint glimmer of light appeared on the silver vertical line on his forehead, which disappeared in a flash. Then he waved to Xiao Yan, who was not far away.

"Xiao Yanzi, come here!"

"What's wrong, Brother Bai?" Xiao Yan walked up, puzzled, and asked.

"Don't speak, and don't ask!" Xiao Bai shook his head slightly and reached out to tap on his dantian.

As the finger fell, Xiao Yan instantly felt the connection with the spirit within his body severed, and he could no longer sense the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame inside. His expression suddenly changed drastically.

If it weren't for the fact that the person who intervened was Brother Bai, whom he had always trusted, he would probably have been terrified!

"Teacher, what's going on?" Xiao Yan immediately asked in his mind, but received no response.

He was even more certain that something he didn't know had happened to make these two act this way.

Thinking of the voice that had just come from the Yunlan Sect, his expression turned slightly unpleasant. Could it be that the mysterious person had also come along?

"Go ahead! Don't be nervous, just do what you're supposed to do!" Amidst the puzzled gazes of everyone in the hall, Xiao Bai waved his hand and smiled faintly.

After Xiao Yan returned and sat down, Cai Lin secretly transmitted her voice and asked:

"Xiao Bai, what happened?"

He could not hide his every move from her. Just now, the vertical line between Xiao Bai's eyebrows was actually glowing, which she found incredible.

She had always thought that thing was just for decoration; she never imagined it had another purpose.

And she didn't know if it was just her imagination, but when the rune between his eyebrows glowed, her mind trembled for a moment.

Xiao Bai shook his head without speaking, and looked towards the gate, where three figures walked in from behind Nalan Yanran.

An elderly man dressed in a moon-white robe, with white hair and beard, had a dignified and imposing air between his brows. He walked with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger. A small cyan sword, surrounded by cloud patterns, was visible on his sleeve. Under the light, it looked as if a small sword was weaving through the flowing clouds.

Another middle-aged man was dressed in an alchemist's robe. He had a dignified appearance and a neat beard, which made him look elegant and handsome. The six-wave-patterned medicine cauldron medal on his chest emitted a faint light.

Xiao Bai glanced at the last one before looking away; it was Gu He's disciple, Liu Ling.

The two entered the hall, nodded slightly to those around them, and then looked towards the head seat. Xiao Bai's youthful face startled them slightly. The old man spoke first, smiling:

"This must be Mr. Bai. I am Yun Ling of the Yunlan Sect, holding the position of Grand Elder. This is Elder Gu He, our sect's chief alchemist!"

As he spoke, he glanced almost imperceptibly at Cai Lin, and frowned slightly. Why did this woman seem so familiar?

The middle-aged man stared at the colorful scales, and after a moment of stunned silence, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly looked away.

Xiao Bai glanced at the two men expressionlessly, nodded, and slowly said, "I have no dealings with the Yunlan Sect. May I ask what brings you two here?"

"Haha. Mr. Bai, you jest. My sect's young master's grandfather was on the verge of death, and I heard that it was your superb medical skills that brought him back to life. How could we not have any connection!"

"I have come here today to express my gratitude, sir, and would like to invite you to join me in extending my hospitality!"

Yun Leng looked eager and laughed heartily.

Upon hearing this, both Jia Xingtian and Fama secretly curled their lips, clearly understanding what this guy was up to.

They didn't mention that Mr. Bai had refined a sixth-grade pill, only expressing their gratitude; their intention to win him over was obvious.

However, they heard about Xiao Bai from Hai Bodong last night. It seems that he has some grudge against Yunlan Sect, so they are happy to watch the show!

"I saved people, they gave me payment, it's just a fair trade, no need for thanks!" Xiao Bai shook his head slightly, his tone calm and composed.

"I heard that Mr. Bai's reward is the Seven Illusions Azure Spirit Saliva. I wonder if you have any injuries to your soul?"

Yun Ling's eyes flickered, his tone enigmatic. Seeing Xiao Bai frown, he quickly waved his hand and smiled:

"Of course, sir, please don't misunderstand. I didn't mean to pry into your privacy. It's just that if you still need something to restore your soul, the Yunlan Sect might be able to help!"

"Thank you for your concern!" Xiao Bai said with a faint smile, "My injuries have already healed, so there's no need to trouble your esteemed sect!"

Though he showed no outward sign of surprise, he inwardly sneered. Help? Help introduce him to Protector Wu?

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief as the subtle feeling of being watched by the two people who had entered subsided.

Damn it, I was careless!

I never expected that refining a soul-restoring pill would attract this guy!

"Very well! I won't bother you any longer, Mr. Bai. It's an honor to meet such a talented person as you today! I hope you can visit my Yunlan Sect in the future; I will certainly welcome you with open arms!"

After speaking, Yun Leng slightly cupped his hands in greeting, then, as if remembering something, took out a gold-embossed invitation from his storage ring and smiled:

"Sir, you are acquainted with our sect's young sect leader. There is a grand event concerning her to be held at our Yunlan Sect the day after tomorrow. We hope you can attend!"

"I'll go check it out if I have the chance!" Xiao Bai accepted the invitation, a barely perceptible strange smile flashing in his eyes.

I just hope you won't regret it later!

"Haha. Then I'll be waiting for you then!" Yun Leng laughed, greeted Jia Xingtian and the other two, and turned to leave.

"Mr. Bai's alchemy skills have broadened Guhe's horizons. I hope to have the opportunity to exchange ideas with you in the future!" Guhe said with a smile as his first words after entering.

"There will be an opportunity!" Looking at this guy, a cold glint flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes, and he nodded with a smile.
