Not Too Smart
"Ya Fei-jie, these pills are for you to auction off." Xiao Yan took out several pill bottles, each filled to the brim with pills.
Su Mei, who had come to escort Ya Fei, watched with a twitching eyelid. These pills, packed into the bottles like candy, were all Fifth Grade or higher, with some even being Sixth Grade.
While they weren't Huangji Pills, there were plenty of Dragon Strength Pills, Dou Wang Pills, and Rank 6 Low-Level healing pills. These were precisely the types of pills most needed in the Black-Corner Region, as not everyone could afford Huangji Pills.
Then, Xiao Yan took out several brocade boxes. Even without opening them, it was clear that anything requiring such careful sealing must be a treasure.
Among them were even the Sect Breakthrough Pills that Xiao Yan had made too many of. Not trading them was a deliberate move to boost the Mittel Auction House's reputation, letting the Black-Corner Region know that the Mittel Auction House was under his, Xiao Yan's, protection! Ya Fei looked at these pills, capable of making the entire Black-Corner Region tremble, and simply smiled before storing them in her Storage Ring.
She glanced at Little Fairy Doctor, pondered for half a second, then stepped forward. Her red high heels lifted her onto her toes as she lightly kissed Xiao Yan's cheek with her red lips.
"I wish you achieve immediate victory." Ya Fei knew her place. Aware that Little Fairy Doctor was present, she didn't overstep, only leaving a very light lip print on his cheek.
Ya Fei understood that her strength was weak, and that Little Fairy Doctor, with her Calamity Poison Body, could offer Xiao Yan more help. Knowing her position, she wouldn't hold Xiao Yan back, and she knew he would go far.
Without lingering, Ya Fei left a fragrant breeze behind as she departed with Su Mei.
Ya Fei was a gentle haven, not a Hero's Tomb.
Zi Yan covered her mouth, giggling as she looked at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan rolled his eyes at Zi Yan, then turned to Little Fairy Doctor and said, "Let's go. If those people are smart, we'll reach Canaan Academy today."
"We'll refine the Poison Pill at Canaan Academy."
Little Fairy Doctor nodded gently. The Poison Pill Method wasn't just difficult because of the Medicinal Herbs required; it was also a test for the Alchemist. Xiao Yan didn't dare to be careless and needed to find an absolutely safe and quiet place. The Inner Academy of Canaan Academy was just such a place.
The Books Collection Pavilion! Not only was it guarded by the Two Elders, but the Books Collection Pavilion also had a Space Lock set up by the elusive Dean. Refining the Poison Pill there was the best option.
Subsequently, Xiao Yan, Little Fairy Doctor, Zi Yan, and the Little Lion King swaggered out of the inn's main entrance.
The moment Xiao Yan led Little Fairy Doctor and the others out of the inn, the entire Black Emperor City seemed to awaken. Countless eyes instantly locked onto them from all directions.
"They're finally leaving the city."
"Let's go, follow them. The end of a large auction in the Black-Corner Region isn't when you leave the auction house."
Many still remembered the auction held by Six Doors, which ended with the Blood Sect being destroyed. Naturally, this attracted many onlookers eager to watch the drama unfold.
"Sect Leader, I think something's not quite right with Xiao Yan. He's leaving the city so openly. He must know that there are many experts waiting for him inside and outside the city,"
At this moment, in the Black Emperor Sect's council hall, the Alchemist Qi Shan frowned, hesitating.
Mo Tianxing frowned and asked, "How's the tracking mark?"
"Reporting to Sect Leader, it's confirmed. The Bodhi Transformation Saliva is still on Xiao Yan," Qi Shan replied.
"Father, could it be that Xiao Yan has already discovered the mark?" Mo Ya asked worriedly from the side.
"Young Sect Master, rest assured. This special secret mark is extremely well-hidden. Even a Seventh Grade Alchemist wouldn't be able to sense it," Qi Shan said confidently.
"Alas, if it weren't for our Black Emperor Sect's long research without gaining any information about the Bodhi Heart and Bodhi Tree from the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, we certainly wouldn't have put it up for auction." Mo Tianxing looked out towards the Black Emperor City, his brow furrowing slightly as he said coldly.
"What about the people from the other sects?"
"They're all ready."
"Good, hehehe, the energy of a Seventh Grade Alchemist is indeed remarkable, but what can you do against the entire Black-Corner Region!"
Hearing this, Qi Shan and Mo Ya exchanged glances, then smiled in agreement.
At this moment, Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor seemed like a family on an outing, walking and enjoying the scenery. Xiao Yan occasionally teased Little Fairy Doctor, earning him countless eye-rolls and leaving her speechless.
After leaving the city and walking for an hour, Xiao Yan and the others arrived at a small hill. From their vantage point, they overlooked the surroundings. The area was picturesque, clearly a good spot.
"Sigh." Life was not easy, Xiao Yan sighed.
Shaking his head, Xiao Yan spread his hands and said as if talking to himself, "Everyone, you've been following for over an hour. I'm about to fly straight back to Canaan Academy, so you won't have another chance. Don't say I didn't give you an opportunity."
"This place has a cool breeze and good water; it can be considered a blessed land. It's not bad to be buried here, don't you think?" Xiao Yan smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping across the land.
Not to mention Xiao Yan's strong Soul power, even those with weaker Soul power would probably know they were being followed. Those scorching gazes weren't even trying to hide.
"Heh, as expected of the City Lord of Xiao City, such courage is indeed worthy of a young hero."
"Hahaha, being buried here is indeed fitting for City Lord Xiao's status."
Just then, many cultivators emerged from the shadows of the trees and dense forests. In an instant, the experts from various sects in the Black-Corner Region rushed out.
At this moment, these experts from the Black-Corner Region couldn't help but be envious. Over the past few days, the news of Xiao Yan's high-priced purchase of the Bodhi Transformation Saliva had been deliberately spread throughout the Black-Corner Region, with rumors even claiming that Xiao Yan had obtained the specific location of the Bodhi Tree.
So-called people die for wealth, and birds die for food. Instantly, countless Black-Corner Region experts who didn't want to live and licked blood from knife edges poured into Black Emperor City.
Now, these experts rushed into the sky one by one and surrounded them all at once.
"Humph!" At this time, the Great Lion King, who was standing beside Xiao Yan like an old servant, snorted coldly and took a step forward. Suddenly, the power of a Dou Zong smashed over like a huge wave. With a bang, some low-level Dou Huang who rushed up were blasted away on the spot, incomparably powerful.
This was a Dou Zong, even if a dozen Dou Huang joined forces, it would not be enough to watch.
Sensing the power of the transformed Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King, many cultivators who rushed up couldn't help but change their expressions. However, they were still unwilling to give up on the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, or rather, the words 'Dou Sheng'. They surrounded Xiao Yan and the others layer by layer from a distance.
Xiao Yan didn't think this was strange. Not to mention that he was just a Seventh Grade Alchemist, even if he was an Eighth Grade, they would swarm up if they had the opportunity and devour him.
Just like Xiao Yan, would he be afraid of the other seven clans? As long as there was profit, he would tear them apart.
These people were all experts who fantasized about being the protagonists of those biographical novels, fantasizing about obtaining great opportunities, becoming saints on the spot, and being warriors who were not afraid of enemy pursuit.
Without Xiao Yan's words, the Lion King took a step forward, and the Dou Zong aura rolled. Whoever dared to rush over would have to pass his level first! Xiao Yan gave him and his son Transformation Pills. Although it was a transaction, the grace of the pills was difficult to repay, and he was willing to block the enemy for Xiao Yan at this time.
Seeing that Xiao Yan was guarded by a Dou Zong expert, this made the people present even more convinced that Xiao Yan really knew the secret of the Bodhi Transformation Saliva and could know the location of the Bodhi Tree! The Bodhi Tree, the Three Bodhi Treasures! How could this not make people jealous! However, the Lion King blocked in front, and the Dou Zong aura rolled like a wave, causing the experts of any force to take a breath of cold air. Even the peak Dou Huang and half-step Dou Zong experts did not dare to rashly step forward. To be an enemy of Dou Zong was to seek their own death.
Just at this moment, cyan mist billowed, and finally, a Dou Zong expert appeared.
"Humph, just a One-Star Dou Zong, your tone is a bit loud." A stronger Dou Zong aura surged from the horizon, and the Eagle Mountain Old Man stepped through the air and appeared not far away in one step. The terrifying Dou Zong aura disintegrated the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's pressure.
"Eagle Mountain Old Man! He really is here."
"Not only Eagle Mountain Old Man, look over there."
"That's the Black Emperor Sect! Mo Tianxing! Good fellow, this guy is planning to attack!"
Mo Tianxing led the experts of the Black Emperor Sect and rushed up. When he saw Xiao Yan, he smiled slightly, as if he was seeing an old friend, but there was ruthlessness in the depths of his eyes.
"What? Does everyone want the Bodhi Transformation Saliva? Or do you want the so-called Bodhi Tree news?" Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, looked at everyone, and said with a smile, without any fear.
At this time, the Eagle Mountain Old Man stepped forward, his eyes that could penetrate everything stared at Xiao Yan, his eyes were like an eagle, and he said in a deep voice: "Hand over the Bodhi Transformation Saliva and tell me the news of the Bodhi Tree, and this old man will leave immediately!"
His eyes were fixed on Xiao Yan. His purpose from the beginning was the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, just because Xiao Yan was too rich and couldn't bid for it.
Hearing the Eagle Mountain Old Man's words, I don't know how many people were drooling and extremely jealous.
The news of the Bodhi Tree!
"But, this Bodhi Transformation Saliva was obtained from my auction, why should I give it to you?" Xiao Yan said with a smile, not angry at all, still so calm.
"Hehe, City Lord Xiao, we found that the pills you gave are fake, your auction doesn't count." Mo Tianxing smiled aside, his voice was like a bell, and said: "Since the pills you gave are fake, then this Bodhi Transformation Saliva should of course be re-auctioned, and it should also be returned to my Black Emperor Sect."
"Hey, that's right, since the Sect Leader of the Black Emperor Sect has said so, this Bodhi Transformation Saliva should be handed over." At this time, an expert from the Black-Corner Region said with a boo.
Who doesn't covet the Bodhi Transformation Saliva? In fact, everyone knows that Mo Tianxing is lying. If the pills were really fake, then the goods would be out of the door, and no returns would be accepted.
However, at this time, everyone couldn't wait to find an excuse to grab things.
"Boy, although you are a Seventh Grade Alchemist, a dead Seventh Grade Alchemist is not a Seventh Grade Alchemist. If you know what's good for you, hand over the Bodhi Transformation Saliva and give my Black Emperor Sect a Sect Breakthrough Pill as a reward, and my Black Emperor Sect can protect you. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will die without a burial place!" Mo Ya said grimly.
Not only Mo Ya, everyone present couldn't wait to strip Xiao Yan naked and snatch all the pills on his body.
Many forces have secretly reached a consensus that the Black Emperor Sect and the Eagle Mountain Old Man will take the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, and the others will divide the pills on Xiao Yan. As for the news of the Bodhi Tree, everyone will share it.
These are all in cahoots!
Xiao Yan looked at the jealous Black-Corner Region experts one by one, and said calmly: "So, I used real money to bid for the Bodhi Transformation Saliva with two Seventh Grade Pills, but it has become an original sin."
"Alas, the world is going downhill."
Flame Venerable sighed, sighing at the darkness of this world.
"Bah." At this time, Zi Yan said disdainfully: "Just grab things, can't you be more direct? You're all like women!"
Being said like this by a little girl like Zi Yan, Mo Tianxing and others' faces turned red and green, but he snorted coldly and was still arrogant.
Xiao Yan spread his hands and said slowly: "It's no wonder you, it's the Black-Corner Region, after all, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Just grab things, who hasn't robbed other people's things? I've even robbed the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's."
"But, so many people are robbing my things, it's like a virgin getting on a sedan chair for the first time."
"I have limited patience, quickly hand over the Bodhi Transformation Saliva and the news of the Bodhi Tree, otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences." At this time, the Eagle Mountain Old Man's aura was aggressive and he was already impatient.
Facing the encirclement of almost the entire Black-Corner Region's experts, Xiao Yan was still relaxed and said: "I am a person who doesn't like to hide my strength. To be honest, you are all just cats and dogs here, not enough to watch."
"I will show mercy and give you a chance to escape. Leave here now, and I won't pursue it."
"Otherwise, you will be killed without exception!"
Xiao Yan's eyes turned cold, and a terrifying aura erupted from his body. The Burning Technique had already reached Heaven Rank, and Xiao Yan's Eight Star Dou Huang Dou Qi was no weaker than an ordinary Dou Zong. The scorching aura instantly raised the air temperature by several degrees.
"Hahahaha, young man, what big words! No wonder you dared to kill so many disciples of my Demon Flame Valley." At this moment, a burst of loud laughter came from afar. The thunderous shout resounded mightily throughout the Inner Academy, and the lingering sound, like a Buddhist chant, shook people's minds.
In just a moment, a large group of small black dots appeared in everyone's field of vision. After a few blinks, they transformed into a group of figures exuding a fierce aura, hovering in the sky.
Xiao Yan's gaze slowly swept over the group of about twenty figures, and then stopped on the person in the very center.
That was a blood-haired old man wearing a skeleton yellow robe. The old man's face was also thin, almost of the skin-and-bones type. At first glance, he looked like a skull. His sunken eyes revealed a faint luster, like a ghost fire, revealing a bit of weirdness and gloom.
The founder of Demon Flame Valley, Di Mo Lao Gui, a Seven Star Dou Zong! Seeing Di Mo Lao Gui's appearance, Xiao Yan not only did not panic, but smiled slightly.
"Seven Star Dou Zong, it seems that Mo Tianxing is going to send a big gift. I'll reluctantly accept it."
Seeing that the actors were all present, Xiao Yan couldn't wait any longer!
"Since you won't listen to reason, then don't blame me. You asked for it!" Xiao Yan's voice suddenly became extremely cold, and he said, "Kill them all!"
With a bang, Little Fairy Doctor, who had been quietly standing aside, suddenly erupted with a terrifying aura, and the aura of a Nine Star Dou Zong enveloped the area.
"Nine Star Dou Zong!!"
