I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

It’s on fire!The young man slowly put away the Medicinal Pill, a look of confidence and composure on his face.

He turned around and cupped his hands towards Elder Ouyang, who had rushed over, saying, ”Junior Fang Feng greets Elder Ouyang.”

At this moment, Elder Ouyang’s attention was entirely focused on the small medicine bottle, his eyes burning with eagerness, wishing he could get his hands on it immediately.

However, in public, he dared not make any overly outrageous moves; he still had to maintain his image as a Grandmaster of Alchemy, detached from worldly affairs.

Therefore, he said cheerfully, ”Indeed, heroes emerge in youth. Your Alchemy technique is skilled, and your operations are calm and unhurried. You must be an unparalleled prodigy devoted to the Dao of Alchemy.”

”There are too many people and too much noise here; it’s not a place for discussion. Please come to my Alchemy room for a gathering to jointly discuss the methods of Medicinal Pill refinement.”

”Elder Ouyang, if you are willing to impart your knowledge, Junior will certainly study diligently.”

Fang Feng was overjoyed; it seemed that the matter of asking Elder Ouyang to refine Medicinal Pills was settled.

Xiao Mei, I will definitely bring you back to life, he thought to himself.

The thought of his wife still in a coma twisted his heart like a knife.

If he hadn’t been soft-hearted that day and had directly annihilated all his enemies, today’s events would not have happened.

Xiao Mei also wouldn’t have been critically wounded from taking a blow for him.

He was still too benevolent; not wiping out his enemies’ entire family had left him with this disaster.

”Please follow me.”

Elder Ouyang said with a smile, personally leading the way for Fang Feng, exceptionally enthusiastic.

”Junior obeys.”

With that, Fang Feng followed.

Everyone felt surprised; Elder Ouyang, who usually carried himself with the demeanor of a Senior, actually showed a warm smile to an unknown person.

This was too incredible!

”I feel like I’m dreaming. The last time the Sect Master of the Spirit Dao Sword Sect asked Elder Ouyang to refine Medicinal Pills, he had to give him nine Innate Sword Spirits before Elder Ouyang would agree.

You should know that every Innate Sword Spirit is a supreme treasure; even Grand Unity Golden Immortals would covet them.”

”What’s that? Elder Ouyang said that wealth cannot move him; he wants to be immersed in the Dao of Alchemy. He will only refine Medicinal Pills if there is a deep friendship.”

”That’s right, Elder Ouyang’s Realm is extraordinary; he is no longer troubled by worldly possessions. So-called treasures are mere trifles to him.”

”Don’t you understand? Elder Ouyang has never taken a Disciple. Now that he sees a prodigy in Alchemy, it’s inevitable that he develops an appreciation for talent.”

”You mean, take him as a Disciple?”

”Highly likely. Don’t you see Elder Ouyang’s attitude towards Fang Feng? He immediately encouraged him to refine Medicinal Pills. Perhaps this is fate.”

”With Elder Ouyang’s approval, his future will be smooth sailing.”

Everyone was filled with envy. A Disciple with extraordinary talent, a Master who disregards formalities—a renowned Master and a brilliant Disciple!

Presumably, their meeting today would become a beautiful story in the future.

”No, why do I feel a bit hot inside?”

”Me too. Ever since the Medicinal Pill came out, and its fragrance wafted over, I’ve felt my Qi and blood surge.”

”Idiot! Encountering such a wonderful thing, feeling a bit of passion is normal. This is called getting fired up!”

”Oh, I see.”

”I’ll go back and find my wife first and let her help me with this ’spontaneous combustion’ problem.”

”Isn’t your wife always with you?”

”Always with me? What do you mean?”

”Here, look.”

He slowly extended his right hand.

”...”

Xiao Fan observed this. These twelve Medicinal Pills had a similar effect to the Medicinal Pills he used to trick Dragon Aotian in the Wanlong Nest.

It really was that kind of Medicinal Pill!

Taking Fang Feng over was most likely to make him write down the Alchemy methods and Materials, and also to test the Medicinal Pill’s efficacy.

Wait!

Test the Medicinal Pill’s efficacy!

Xiao Fan seemed to have found the key point.

An idea that could lead to Fang Feng’s physical and mental demise surfaced in his mind.

”I’m too wicked; I’m always thinking of killing someone and crushing their spirit!”

Xiao Fan reflected deeply. If there was a next time, he would reflect again.

...

...

Fang Feng followed Elder Ouyang’s footsteps and entered Elder Ouyang’s exclusive Alchemy room.

At first, Fang Feng was a bit reserved. Elder Ouyang was too enthusiastic, treating him like his own son.

Even more affectionately than his own son!

This made Fang Feng, who was constantly ridiculed, feel overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

”Fang Feng, sit.”

Elder Ouyang sent over an immortal-imbued futon, which landed precisely in front of him.

Fang Feng repeatedly expressed his thanks, and unable to refuse such warmth, he sat down.

The two chatted and laughed, especially Elder Ouyang’s various care and greetings, which made Fang Feng feel like he had met a benevolent Master.

He immediately took out the Medicinal Pill, preparing to offer it to Elder Ouyang.

Elder Ouyang had talked for a long time, and to maintain his Senior demeanor, he hadn’t forcibly taken it.

You finally understand, kid!

However, Fang Feng had not yet received Elder Ouyang’s promise to refine Medicinal Pills for him, so he wouldn’t hand it over easily.

He offered it halfway and then pulled it back, making Elder Ouyang’s heart itch. Are you trying to tease me?

”Elder Ouyang, Junior has a request; I hope you can help.”

”As long as Elder agrees, I will generously give this Medicinal Pill to Elder, and I will also present the Medicinal Materials and methods for refining the Medicinal Pill with both hands.”

Elder Ouyang had been troubled by his debilitated state for many years, and now that hope was in sight, he certainly had to seize the opportunity.

So Elder Ouyang affirmed, ”You are a prodigy in Alchemy; the future of the Dao of Alchemy rests on young Juniors like you. Revitalizing the Dao of Alchemy is our bounden duty!”

”Whatever difficulties you have, just say them, and I will definitely have someone arrange everything properly for you.”

Elder Ouyang had a look of caring for a Junior, completely embodying the demeanor of a Senior.

Fang Feng immediately knelt down and kowtowed in gratitude, ”Senior’s great kindness, Junior will never forget!”

With that, he took out a palm-sized black jade box of ice, and gently placed it down.

After landing on the ground, it grew into a two-meter-long crystal coffin.

Inside the crystal coffin, a flawless ice beauty lay quietly, but her face was pale and her vitality was fading.

Xiao Fan’s Divine Thought penetrated through layers of obstruction, and upon closer inspection, he secretly shook his head.

He didn’t like second-hand goods; he only preferred physiologically original, authentic products.

Elder Ouyang was a bit surprised. What a beautiful person.

Looking at the woman in the coffin, a tender expression appeared on Fang Feng’s face.

”Senior, this is my wife, Xiao Mei. She suffered severe injuries and only has a breath left.”

”I sought countless doctors and medicines and learned that the Grand Unity Soul Reviving Pill can wake her up. Junior’s strength is low, and I can’t refine this kind of Medicinal Pill yet.”

”I earnestly request Elder to take action and refine a furnace of Grand Unity Soul Reviving Pills for Junior to save Xiao Mei’s life.”

So that was his request.

Elder Ouyang said indifferently, ”This request for Alchemy is nothing. I originally posted a bounty: whoever can complete the Pill Formula, I will refine ten furnaces of Medicinal Pills for them.”

”I agree to your request.”

”However, there’s no need to refine it again; I still have some Grand Unity Soul Reviving Pills in stock, enough to save your wife.”

With that, Elder Ouyang beckoned, and a purple-gold Jade Bottle hanging on the Medicinal Pill rack automatically flew into his hand.

A golden talisman was pasted on it, with the five large characters [Grand Unity Soul Reviving Pill] written in flourishing Dragon and Phoenix script.

Fang Feng was overjoyed, unable to contain his excitement.

”This is a Medicinal Pill I refined last time, stored for over ten thousand years. There are still three left.”

”Here, take it,” Elder Ouyang handed it to Fang Feng.

Fang Feng reached out to take it but found that no matter how he tried, he couldn’t move it.

He looked up in confusion, only to find Elder Ouyang looking at him with a smiling face, or rather, looking at the Jade Bottle in his hand.

Fang Feng suddenly realized, ”Elder, Junior was careless. Here.”

He offered the Jade Bottle, along with the Pill Formula.

Elder Ouyang laughed heartily, ”Young people are still too impatient; pay more attention in the future.”

”Yes, yes, yes, Junior will definitely pay attention in the future.”

Both of them got what they wanted, and they were all delighted. Fang Feng couldn’t wait to feed the Medicinal Pill to his wife immediately.

Elder Ouyang said kindly,

”Turn left out the door, the eighth room is empty. You can go there to treat your wife’s injuries. If you don’t understand anything, you can come and ask me.”

Fang Feng said with tears of gratitude, ”Words cannot express my gratitude for this great kindness. If Elder ever needs me, Fang Feng, I will never refuse.”

Elder Ouyang smiled. He had to first verify if this Pill Formula was fake. How could he let him run off first?

”Go.”

Elder Ouyang summoned two Disciples.

One of them took Fang Feng to the designated healing courtyard.

The other went to gather all the Medicinal Materials written on the Pill Formula according to his request.

He himself started the furnace and fire, preparing to refine a furnace of Medicinal Pills to test its authenticity.

Taking out the Medicinal Pill Fang Feng gave him, Elder Ouyang opened the bottle cap and sniffed it. He immediately felt his Qi and blood surge, and a fiery sensation rose from his lower abdomen, reacting instantly.

But he wouldn’t eat it.

As an Alchemy Great Master, he wasn’t sure if the Medicinal Pill had been tampered with.

The principles of medicine are endless, and he couldn’t claim to know all the medicinal principles in the world.

The safest method was to only consume Medicinal Pills he refined himself.

Before that, he summoned a gray-white immortal crane, casually attached a Jade Slip to it, and had it carry it out in its mouth.

Xiao Fan peered into it and saw a line of text written on it.

[Summon your Elder sister and mother, come quickly. Today, I want to take on ten!]

Hiss, how perverted. Because of the Dao True Monarch, I, Xiao Fan, cannot stand such things the most.

This Elder Ouyang appears righteous on the surface, but secretly, he’s such a person. No, I won’t allow anyone to be more awesome than me.

I can’t let him succeed!

Perhaps, I can make him and Fang Feng have a true man’s collision together.

The more Xiao Fan thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. That’s what he would do.

He first used a Saintly Way Divine Ability to shroud the entire Alchemy room, setting up an illusion array to prevent those inside from noticing any external anomalies.

Then, he used the Chronospace Codex’s time acceleration function to silently cover the Alchemy room, accelerating the flow of time within the covered area.

Elder Ouyang’s Alchemy went smoothly, completing the Medicinal Pill refinement in just one day.

For the Chronospace Codex, which could make a day feel like a thousand years, only a blink of an eye passed outside.

Elder Ouyang grew a bit impatient waiting. It had been so long; why hadn’t anyone arrived yet?

Xiao Fan observed this. The setup was complete; only the final step remained: inviting the target into the trap!

...

...

Xiao Mei’s treatment also went smoothly. After taking the Grand Unity Soul Reviving Pill, her condition immediately improved. Her pale complexion turned rosy, and her pulse beat strongly.

Her curved eyelashes trembled slightly, about to open her eyes.

But she still hadn’t fully recovered; it was just short of the final step.

Fang Feng’s cultivation was still shallow, so he couldn’t discern any issues. He was a bit anxious when he suddenly realized and slapped his forehead.

”Elder Ouyang said to ask him if I didn’t understand anything. How could I forget this?”

He prepared to walk over, knock on Elder Ouyang’s door, and ask him to come and take a look.

Arriving at the door, he gently knocked and respectfully said,

”Elder Ouyang, Junior has something to ask.”

...

...

Xiao Fan increased the power of the illusion array, distorting sounds and stimulating Elder Ouyang’s most urgent desires.

As expected, Elder Ouyang heard a shy, clear, and melodious voice like an oriole outside the door.

”Elder Ouyang, this humble one has arrived. Please open the door and meet me.”

Without thinking too much, he directly swallowed the Medicinal Pill.

Then he put away the medicine bottle. How could he let his women know the truth about such matters?

He slowly opened the door.
