Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Is that so? Why not try it out when an opportunity arises, Senior?”

Yun Xiao did not directly answer, knowing that only facts can speak for themselves. Yet, in the next moment, he shifted the conversation, saying, ”However, after today, perhaps Senior Fu Du won’t need this so-called Yin Suppressing Pill anymore!”

”Yun Xiao, what do you mean by that?” Fu Du’s eyes lit up as he contemplated a possibility, and he actually began to have a lot of confidence and expectations in this seemingly naive young man.

”Hehe, Senior, as I’ve already mentioned my purpose earlier, I had an agreement with Brother Yin Huan. He helped me once, and today I am here to repay that favor!” Yun Xiao reiterated his purpose, and these words made the gleam in Fu Du’s eyes deepen.

”Yun Xiao, do you really have a method to ’resolve’ the Three Yin Meridians?” Fu Du paused slightly on the word ”resolve,” believing that Yun Xiao would understand his words.

”Of course, how could I dare deceive Brother Yin Huan and Senior?”

First affirming his statement, Yun Xiao then pointed to the cauldron in front of him and said, ”Senior, the Yin Suppressing Pills you refined only suppress and control the symptoms, they do not cure the root cause. I have a pill recipe here, called the ’Yin Transformation Pill.’ If it can be successfully refined, it might completely resolve the Three Yin Meridians!”

”Yin Transformation Pill? Is there such an elixir? How come I have never heard of it?” Fu Du mumbled, revealing his complete ignorance about this so-called Yin Transformation Pill, voicing three questions full of confusion.

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao secretly chuckled. This Yin Transformation Pill, after all, was the result of many years of research by a Holy Rank Meridian Refining Master from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud and had been refined and improved to become an Intermediate Spiritual Rank Elixir, designed to resolve those with extremely cold Yin Bodies.

Thinking back, in the memories of Yun Xiao’s past life, the Three Yin Meridians were just the lowest and most inferior among many extremely cold Yin constitutions. Using the Yin Transformation Pill to resolve them would definitely not pose any problems.

After reflecting inwardly, Yun Xiao reached into his robe and pulled out a letter he had prepared earlier, saying, ”Senior Fu Du, this is the recipe for the Intermediate Spiritual Rank Elixir, the Yin Transformation Pill.”

”Intermediate Spiritual Rank Elixir?” Fu Du slowly took the letter, filled with names of various medicinal ingredients, but his brow furrowed, because he was currently only a Low-level Spiritual Rank Meridian Refining Master.

Moreover, Fu Du harbored doubts about the authenticity of this Yin Transformation Pill recipe. Even within Jade Pot Sect, there weren’t many Intermediate Spiritual Rank formulas; so where did this Meridian Introduction Realm Early Stage youngster get it from?

Fu Du had become quite familiar with the details of the Shang Family in Moon Bow City during this time, knowing their strongest was merely Family Head Shang Yan in the Early Stage of Meridian Rushing Realm, and they didn’t even have a Meridian Refining Master.

Adding to that, Fu Du had learned about Yun Xiao’s situation in the Shang Family from his disciple Yin Huan. Even if the Shang Family had inherited Spiritual Rank elixir recipes, they wouldn’t let Yun Xiao have them; thus, the authenticity of this Yin Transformation Pill recipe was highly suspicious.

Yun Xiao, with his shrewd mind, noticed the doubts in Fu Du’s heart at a glance and continued, ”Senior, if this Yin Transformation Pill can be successfully refined, not only will the Three Yin Meridians not erupt again, but you could also control the Yin Cold Power within them, achieving unexpected effects when confronting others.”

Looking intently at Fu Du, Yun Xiao meaningfully said, ”Although Senior is only a Low-level Spiritual Rank Meridian Refining Master, surely the grand Jade Pot Sect would not lack a Meridian Refining Master capable of concocting Intermediate Spiritual Rank elixirs, right? As for the authenticity of this Yin Transformation Pill, you needn’t worry, Senior. If it’s fake, you can dispose of Yun Xiao however you see fit when the time comes.”

These successive speeches diluted Fu Du’s rational thoughts with hopes, no matter how dubious the origins of this Yin Transformation Pill recipe, he had to try it, what if it was real?

”Alright, I’ll find someone to refine this Yin Transformation Pill for me. If it’s real, you won’t lack benefits. But if you dare deceive me, you know the consequences!”

Fu Du carefully stored the recipe into his Waist Storage, and his words carried both temptation and a significant threat.

”Hehe, Senior, rest assured, even if I could run away, the Shang Family can’t, right? Besides, I still want to join Jade Pot Sect, how could I afford to offend you? Wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?” Yun Xiao stated a plethora of reasons, indeed making some sense.

”Oh? You want to join Jade Pot Sect?” Fu Du, having stored the recipe safely, lifted his head upon hearing Yun Xiao’s words, asking with interest. He already knew some information about Jade Pot Sect recruiting Outer Disciples this time.

”I heard your situation in Shang Family isn’t very good. Do you need me to put in a good word for you?” Having gained a favor from Yun Xiao, Fu Du didn’t mind playing the good guy this time. If it were the old Yun Xiao, he might have eagerly agreed immediately.

But now, reincarnated with the soul of Long Xiao Battle God, if he couldn’t even handle Shang Huiyu, he might as well die again.

Moreover, he didn’t want to owe favors to a Low-level Spiritual Rank Poison Vein Master. He had sought Yin Huan’s help in the Righteous Hall out of sheer necessity; these characters, once involved with, are difficult to rid of.

Thus, as soon as Fu Du finished speaking, Yun Xiao shook his head and said, ”This small matter, I can handle it myself, there’s no need to trouble Senior Fu Du!”

”Hehe, then be aware of it yourself!” Fu Du revealed a smile on his old face, but did not elaborate. His figure shook, and he had already disappeared at the entrance of the Alchemy Room, looking quite eager.

No joke, these Three Yin Meridians had troubled Fu Du for decades without cure, and over the years, he could only constantly refine Yin Suppressing Pills to suppress the coldness.

Moreover, the coldness of the Three Yin Meridians would become stronger over time. Now, finally having a type of Yin Transformation Pill that could permanently dissolve it and even harness the Yin Cold Power for himself, how could Fu Du not be anxious?

However, after stepping out of the Alchemy Room, Fu Du involuntarily turned his head back, looking at the distant shattered door and muttered: ”It seems that young lad Yun Xiao has many secrets, and I wonder how many more recipes of that Spiritual Rank Intermediate level he still has?”

At this moment, Fu Du’s mindset suddenly changed. Like them, most Poison Vein Masters are ruthless and venomous, they wouldn’t pay any attention to any cultivator with lower cultivation than theirs.

If it wasn’t for needing something from Yun Xiao, Fu Du would never humble himself to such a young lad at the Meridian Introduction Realm. Now, it seemed he had discovered the hidden secrets on that youth named Yun Xiao and had some other plans.

Let’s not mention the hurried departure of Fu Du, as Yun Xiao watched his retreating figure, he also thought a lot. To keep a previous promise, he had exposed some of his secrets today. He was no longer the naive Yun Xiao, and he could never fully trust a Poison Vein Master like Fu Du.

Even if the Yin Transformation Pill was real, Yun Xiao didn’t expect Fu Du to be grateful after eliminating the Three Yin Meridians. For these ruthless Poison Vein Masters, the most likely possibility would be to return kindness with ingratitude, and dry out his deepest secrets, thus he had to prepare early.

Therefore, after pondering for a moment, Yun Xiao did not stay there any longer and went out of the room, returning to the Alchemy Room where he had refined the Meridian Rushing Pill earlier.

There were still materials left for refining Meridian Rushing Pill. Yun Xiao thought that after what happened just now, even if the people from the Shang Family came again, they wouldn’t dare to make a move on him without clarity about his relationship with Fu Du.

At that moment, Yun Xiao rekindled the Meridian Fire and began to refine the Meridian Rushing Pill. This time indeed, nobody came to disturb him, and after more than an hour, the embryonic form of the Meridian Rushing Pill had gradually taken shape within the Medicine Tripod.

...

Outside the Commerce Medicine Pavilion.

As Yun Xiao was refining the Meridian Rushing Pill, a group of gorgeously dressed dignitaries arrived at the entrance of the Commerce Medicine Pavilion, who were indeed dignitaries just within Moon Bow City.

Always stationed at the door, when the Commerce Medicine Pavilion servants saw the elderly leader, their hearts leapt, and they hurried forward, bowing deeply and said: ”Greetings, Family Head!”

It turned out that the leader of this group was none other than the contemporary Family Head of the Shang Family, Shang Yan. For these small errands of the Commerce Medicine Pavilion, they usually did not have the qualifications to meet the Family Head of the Shang Family; at most, they would meet the second master who controlled the Commerce Medicine Pavilion.

Following behind Shang Yan, besides Shang Li, there was also Shang Ying, the main house controller of the Shang Family. As for others, everyone was a real power figure of the Shang Family, only missing the young genius Shang Huiyu.

Shang Yan did not bother with the bowing servant; his old face carried a hint of solemnity, leading many powerful individuals of the Shang Family, entering the Pavilion in silence, heading straight to the Alchemy Room.

”Fu Du’s presence graces our Shang Family, and for not meeting you from afar, Shang Yan pleads your forgiveness!”

Shang Yan’s voice arrived before he did, he had already received a report from Shang Li that an important person from Jade Pot Sect was in the Commerce Medicine Pavilion, thus he hurriedly led the Shang Family’s powerhouses without daring to offend the enormous Jade Pot Sect.

Little did they know, as Shang Yan’s voice fell, and the people reached the first Alchemy Room, they saw only a shattered room door, and inside, besides a dark Medicine Tripod, there was no outsider.

”Could he have already left?”

Beside him, Shang Li wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead. He didn’t dare to tell Shang Yan about kicking the door of the Alchemy Room earlier, and now, not seeing Fu Du, he was truly a bit relieved.

Still, Shang Yan was after all a strong cultivator of Meridian Rushing Realm and had also activated an Ancestor Vein. Moments later, his gaze had already moved from the Alchemy Room in front, and then he stepped forward, heading quickly towards the interior.

The people of the Shang Family behind him didn’t know what had happened, could only silently follow behind the Family Head, and the next moment, they saw Shang Yan stopping in front of another Alchemy Room’s door, his face full of respectful reverence.

”I, Shang Yan, Family Head of the Shang Family, request to see Lord Fu Du of Jade Pot Sect!”

The reverent voice echoed in the hall of the Commerce Medicine Pavilion, causing all the Shang Family members present to dare not let out a single breath, showing that the so-called Lord Fu Du of Jade Pot Sect indeed had a powerful deterrent effect.
