Celestial Cyan City.
Cyan Nether Pavilion.
Venerable Bai Xuan from the Supre Profound Sect and Venerable Ling Quan from the Cyan Nether Trade Association stood on top of the pavilion, facing each other confrontationally.
"Old Ling Quan! You still claim you’re not the one who deliberately let that Alchemist go? I’ve captured over a hundred cultivators who were in and around the comrcial street at the ti, and they all stated that after the Grotto Heaven descended, the Cyan Nether Trade Association imdiately sealed off the comrcial street, and so even saw you appear outside the Grotto Heaven with their own eyes!"
The long-bearded, white-robed elder questioned, while across from him, Venerable Ling Quan calmly replied, "I already posted the wanted notice from your Supre Profound Sect at the first mont. What more do you want from ?"
"The ntor of that Alchemist is known as the Fire Dragon Pill Venerable. You should understand the significance of this title."
"The life and death of your True Disciple of the Supre Profound Sect are indeed important, but I cannot afford to offend a Pill Venerable because of it!"
"Besides, from my investigation, it was your granddaughter Bai Luo who first attacked this Alchemist inside the Grotto Heaven!"
"In such a situation, no matter where the issue escalates to, it won’t stand to reason with you. Are you determined to offend a Pill Venerable just to avenge your descendants?"
"What nonsense Fire Dragon Pill Venerable, I’ve never heard of him nor is he a fifth-grade Alchemist of the Heaven-Reaching Tower. All eight Venerables of my Supre Profound Sect are fifth-grade Alchemists and possess Divinity Transformation Cultivation. What is this Fire Dragon Pill Venerable anyway?" Venerable Bai Xuan disdainfully remarked.
He certainly understood that the one capable of defeating his granddaughter must also be a disciple of a high master. However, the Supre Profound Sect is a top-tier force in Qingzhou with a massive following. So what if it’s a disciple of a high master?
At least this Fire Dragon Pill Venerable is likely just a Loose Cultivator, probably with Divinity Transformation Cultivation, and possesses the skills of a fifth-grade Alchemist. Even if I don’t let the other disciple pay with his life, I must still make him pay so other price out of courtesy.
"I’ve equipped my entire houseful of descendants with soul blood, just so that when they get killed outside, we can find the enemies and demand compensation, not to ntion Luo’er, who is so exceptional and fortunate to have entered the Grotto Heaven." Venerable Bai Xuan thought more resolutely that he couldn’t just let it go.
"Old Ling Quan, how do you know it was my granddaughter who first attacked the other party?" Venerable Bai Xuan continued to pursue.
"Because before you arrived, Jiegeng Alchemist from the Heaven-Reaching Tower had also co to Celestial Cyan City for a ti, and one of her Foundation Establishnt Pill Attendants also entered that Grotto Heaven. However, her attendant did not compete for the treasures of the Grotto Heaven but observed the whole process, witnessing everything firsthand!" Venerable Ling Quan replied calmly.
"Where is that person now?" Venerable Bai Xuan’s face turned sullen.
"After finding out that the Alchemist left Celestial Cyan City, he also left. Old Bai Xuan, I advise you to calm down: this young Alchemist has remarkable strength and extraordinary talent in the Alchemy Dao, and his ntor must be extraordinary. It’s not as simple as you think. Let it be, it’s not bad for you. The Grotto Heaven’s rules are like this; your descendant insisted on contesting, and you cannot bla others."
"Heh, a blood feud like that is irreconcilable! Even if his ntor is the Immortal King himself, it won’t be enough!!!"
"Oh, is that so, old white-beard? What if the one behind him is ?"
Suddenly, a voice reached the ears of the two Divinity Transformation powerhouses, causing their faces to change slightly, as they hadn’t realized soone was approaching.
A woman clad in green-white feather attire ascended the pavilion with the wind, standing on the railing, looking down imperiously at the two Divinity Transformation experts.
"Where did this Nascent Soul fledgling co from? Fellow Daoist Ling Quan, is your Cyan Nether Pavilion letting just anyone co up to act recklessly?" Venerable Bai Xuan opened his mouth, then realized sothing.
"Wait, do you know that Alchemist? Could it be that you are the Fire Dragon Pill Venerable?" Venerable Bai Xuan looked at the woman in feather attire, about to raise his hand to suppress her when suddenly a terrifying pressure locked onto him.
And onto Venerable Ling Quan.
Cold sweat dripped down both their faces, goosebumps rose up all over their bodies, and their minds blanked out montarily, even more so than when facing the Void Profound Ancestor inside the sect. Venerable Bai Xuan never felt this kind of oppressive sense of impending death.
After the darkness before his eyes slowly gave way to light, he saw the token held by the woman in feather attire. He swallowed dryly, as the terrifying beast shape on the token nearly made Venerable Bai Xuan collapse in his knees, his throat parched beyond semblance.
"The might of the Demon Emperor, the Holy Daughter Order..."
"You are, the Demon Court Saintess!"
"The Fire Dragon Pill Venerable...Fire Dragon, the ntor of that young Alchemist isn’t human, it’s a demon beast, a Fire Dragon, a mber of the Demon Court!!" In that instant, Venerable Bai Xuan understood everything.
And Venerable Ling Quan further confird his suspicions, though he previously believed the Fire Dragon Pill Venerable was just a "wild demon dragon." Who knew it was actually from the Demon Court!
The Demon Court’s Demon Emperor ranks among the top in battle prowess, even among all demon emperor-level demon beasts.
This is a top-tier demon force comparable to the Heaven-Reaching Tower, far beyond the Supre Profound Sect’s reach.
And the three Saintesses of the Demon Court are known to all, especially the woman before them. Venerable Bai Xuan gradually recalled, the Third Saintess of the Demon Court, Xu Qingyao, a monster with the blood of the Peacock Demon Race, whose power is nearly invincible at the Nascent Soul level, flanked by several Divinity Transformation Demon Emperor guardians.
A while ago, a Divinity Transformation sect provoked this demoness, resulting in the sect’s destruction.
They’ve hit hard... In an instant, Venerable Bai Xuan was speechless.
"Lady Saintess..." His legs bent slightly, wanting to say sothing, Xu Qingyao saw that the other party did not genuinely want to avenge for his descendant, was a coward, and didn’t have the mind to fight. She said with disinterest:
"Forget it. In consideration of your dead granddaughter and since my people are unscathed, I won’t make it difficult for you. Revoke the wanted notice and apologize publicly."
"Thank you, Lady Saintess." Venerable Bai Xuan sighed in relief, inclining his body slightly.
That day.
The Supre Profound Sect withdrew the wanted notice against the naless Alchemist, and Venerable Bai Xuan publicly apologized, admitting that he was only blinded by rage montarily, recognizing that it was wrong to place bla for his descendants’ death to others under the Grotto Heaven’s rules. During this ti, he was willing to compensate for the damages and defamations caused to the Fire Dragon Pill Venerable and his disciple...
The whole Celestial Cyan City was in an uproar, feeling like they had eaten a shocking revelation – the Alchemist involved in the Grotto Heaven was the disciple of soone from the Demon Court!
It’s not unheard of for humans to take demon beasts as ntors, but it is quite rare!
If the backing is from the Demon Court...No wonder Venerable Bai Xuan of the Supre Profound Sect backed down so quickly.
That’s one of the top-tier demon beast forces...
"Senior Sister..." At this ti, Ouyang Hao, standing above the Naless Pill Pavilion, inquired: "This Fire Dragon Pill Venerable is clearly made up by the Junior Brother. What is your purpose in doing this..."
Xu Qingyao gave him a glance and said, "Although that guy wants to practice alchemy outside, given his troublemaking ability, forget about it. This fake identity is nice; it’s better for him to follow under this fake identity. Rest assured, I have a way to make him agree!"
