--- Chapter 158 ---
What Yao Tian did was a sha to the Yao Clan.
He was one of the geniuses, the pillar of Yao Clan's new generation.
Yet Yao Tian fell into madness because of "Qi Deviation.", so even fate seems to play around with the Yao Clan.
The higher-ups didn't even reveal that Yao Tian used a dangerous parasite to increase his strength and exploded in a suicidal attack.
They felt ashad enough.
Of course, besides the higher-ups, the one and only sister of Yao Tian hated him to her very bones.
At a lonely peak, Yao Ling'er tended Baek Ain's burn injuries and put on a rueful expression. She rubbed ointnt gently on Baek Ain's skin and mumbled, "Teacher..."
"I know what that devil did is unforgivable that his death barely paid off. But can you forgive him? If it's not feasible, I'll serve you for eternity to pay for his sin." Yao Ling'er added determinedly. The parasite didn't even influence her.
"..." Baek Ain was silent.
Damn, Yao Tian, your sister is amazing.
It makes Baek Ain feel a little bad.
Just a little.
[Yao Tian is probably grumbling in the afterlife...] Alicia comnted.
Baek Ain shrugged internally and faked a cough, "Ling'er."
"You don't have to do this."
"Live well..."
Wait, the wording was sowhat misleading.
"T-Teacher, you will be fine!" Yao Ling'er suddenly cried, thinking Baek Ain's life was about to end.
The corner of Baek Ain's mouth twitched a little because he sounded like a dying person. Who would have thought his Passive Skill: [Chaotic Mask of the Jester] is this powerful?
"Don't cry... I'm fine, just a little tired." Baek Ain added in a low voice.
"I'll focus my attention on recovering from now on. You can co once a day, and I'll see your progress on Alchemy."
"Go, and prepare your mind. Today's event must have been painful for you."
"B-But... Okay." Yao Ling'er unwillingly nodded and walked out, leaving Baek Ain alone in his room.
A few minutes later, Qing Lin entered the room with an amused expression.
"I must say, Hubby's acting skill is terrifyingly terrific." She comnted with a giggle.
Baek Ain cocked his head and smirked, "Rember, Qing Lin. The most prepared and cautious one always lives the longest."
"Also, this is superficial." He revealed his flawless appearance by deactivating the [Chaotic Mask of the Jester], making the green-haired lady giggle even more.
"You're so bad~!" Qing Lin sat on the chair opposing him.
They talked about a few things, and Qing Lin suddenly straddled onto Baek Ain's lap, kissing him.
"How long should we stay here?" She asked curiously.
"I'm not sure. Maybe a week or two more to solidify my control over the Yao Clan. The appearance of Yao Tian made realize there was a possibility of soone destroying my parasites." Baek Ain replied nonchalantly.
"Fortunately, there aren't many Heavenly Flas in this world, to begin with."
Within the Yao Clan alone, there are only two Heavenly Flas.
Turtle Spiritual Earth Fla.
And Nine Serene Wind Fla.
Of course, Baek Ain excluded the "Golden Wind Fla." because it was "actually." cultivated by Yao Clan's seniors.
Strictly speaking, the Nine Serene Wind Fla and Golden Wind Fla co from a similar origin but developed differently.
Qing Lin kissed Baek Ain again and whispered in anticipation, "I've placed a sound-proofed array in this room and a detection array outside. Can we do it here?"
Like soone who got addicted, Qing Lin has been addicted to Baek Ain's touches. No wonder her sisters always dragged Baek Ain to the bedroom.
Baek Ain smiled and seized her soft rears, "Hehe, don't beg for rcy later."
And then, the room filled with pleasant voices.
...
...
Three days later.
Baek Ain was still bandaged with the help of his skill, teaching Yao Ling'er his Alchemy Skill. The young woman absorbed everything like a sponge, but she lacked the powerful fire to refine high-tiered pills successfully.
Baek Ain wasn't stingy, so he transferred a wisp of "Sea Heart Fla." and "Golden Wind Fla." to Yao Ling'er Beast Fla, allowing her to develop a Quasi-Heavenly Fla with Ice properties.
As long as Yao Ling'er cultivated diligently, her Quasi-Heavenly Fla would beco more powerful and rival other Heavenly Flas.
"Teacher, why don't we mix Tender Dear's Roots with Charred Golden Bamboo's essence? Both herbs could lead to a better result, no?" Yao Ling'er asked with enthusiasm.
Baek Ain shook his head and answered, "Both might look suitable at first glance, and they did possess so degree of lineage. However, they shouldn't get mixed."
"The reason is their places to grow are clashing against each other."
"Tender Dear's Root grew in the cold tundra."
"And Charred Golden Bamboo grows in a volcanic area."
"I see..." Yao Ling'er nodded in realization.
Soone entered their teaching space. It was Yao Dan.
"Haha, Brother Lin. It seems you are healing well." Yao Dan laughed harmlessly, walking toward them.
Baek Ain smiled and replied, "Morning, Brother Dan."
In the last three days, Yao Dan visited Baek Ain six tis, but their relationship is like best friends.
Since they are Alchemists with great prestige, the conversation is more comfortable than breathing and flows naturally to this state.
Yao Dan promised to compensate Baek Ain, and he did.
As Yao Clan's Chief, Yao Dan decided to hand over Turtle Spiritual Earth Fla to Baek Ain and so rare materials one couldn't buy and only encountered, luckily.
At first, Baek Ain refused by playing innocent, making Yao Dan more indignant to give the Heavenly Fla to him.
Yao Dan stared at Yao Ling'er in satisfaction, thinking the young woman could forge her alchemy path thanks to Baek Ain's teachings. He could see that Yao Ling'er slowly progressed to the 9th Tier Alchemist.
Maybe in a few years, the Yao Clan will have another 9th Tier Alchemist with a unique refining thod.
She's unlike her devilish brother, who has taken the wrong path.
Rembering the shaful mont, Yao Dan awkwardly checked Baek Ain's condition and sighed, "Brother Lin, how is your condition?"
"We could give you more dicinal materials if you want."
Baek Ain shook his head and refused, "No, you helped enough, Brother Dan."
"I might reach 70% recovery this noon."
"As for the burn marks... I'll leave so as a life lesson." He added confidently.
Baek Ain smiled at them and patted Yao Ling'er head.
After so thought, Baek Ain handed two scrolls to Yao Dan and caused the Yao Clan's Chief to feel nervous.
"This is..." Yao Dan's hand trembled.
"Yes, the Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill Recipe and the other things I have promised. I'll give them as a gift for Yao Clan." Baek Ain answered calmly.
"Teacher..." Yao Ling'er stared at Baek Ain in fanatical admiration.
"You're an admirable man, Brother Lin." Yao Dan sincerely praised.
"Aiya, how can I take these without paying you?"
"From now on, Brother Lin is our Yao Clan's Guest Elder and Benefactor."
"Also... I will give you a good piece of land in the Yao Clan's Territory."
[Guest Elder and Benefactor?]
[Damn, How scary...] Alicia comnted on this situation.
[They haven't realized the real devil before their very eyes]
'And they will never realize, Alicia. For their own good.' Baek Ain returned while smiling.
He stared at Yao Dan and said, "Brother Dan, don't be too happy."
"Even though we possess the recipe of Dou Qi's Blood Purifying Pill."
"There are many things we need to accomplish first. After all, the 10th Tier Pill isn't easy to make."
"What are the requirents?" Yao Dan frowned deeply.
Baek Ain helplessly raised his hand and replied, "We need 333 Heaven and Earth Materials, 300 of them were 8th Tier dicinal Herbs and Essence."
"As for the rest 33, it's 9th Tier dicinal Herbs."
"And to refine Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill. We need six or more Heavenly Flas."
"No wonder you co to our clan." A bitter expression appeared on Yao Dan's face. Of course, he didn't bla Baek Ain because the requirents were outrageous.
Truthfully, Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill is a Bloodline Cleansing Pill from the Great Thousand World. Baek Ain gets the recipe and modifies it with several alternative materials.
And the good thing is they could produce many pills in one refining.
"I suggest we invite Yan Clan and Gu Clan in this matter. They are the nearest and possess the massive force to our project." Baek Ain proposed his plan. "They can't possibly resist this temptation."
"That's what I thought too." Yao Dan nodded in agreent.
"Let's not talk about the Heavenly Fla... The Yao Clan barely has half of the ingredients."
"Then, I'll contact both Clans."
"But Brother Lin... Your condition might get worse by refining this pill."
Baek Ain waved his hand and chuckled, "My greatest dream is to reach the highest stage of Alchemy."
'Aih, What a man.' Yao Dan clicked his tongue. He respected Baek Ain from the deepest part of his heart.
Yao Ling'er blushed hard, thinking of unspeakable scenarios in her head.
'You can't, Ling'er! She's your teacher. B-But Teacher Lin is a great, admirable, kind, and seemingly loving person.' She was struggling.
[Another one in the bag] Alicia noticed Yao Ling'er symptoms.
'What did you say?' Baek Ain furrowed his brows.
[Nothing~!]
...
...
A week later.
The people from Gu Clan and Yan Clan arrived at the Yao Realm.
