Fighting the Supreme Realm

After returning to the room, he closed the door and placed a restriction as usual. Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed and let out a long sigh of relief. The words he said to Zhen Ni rashly made Xiao Yan feel a little confused. After adjusting his breath for a while, Xiao Yan calmed down, and all the previous clutter disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Yan opened his eyes, turned his palm, and the spirit seal moss appeared in his hand.

Xiao Yan carefully used his soul power to explore, and the soul power was immediately bounced back. Xiao Yan's pupils shrank. The energy in this thing was so powerful that Xiao Yan had to put it away first and then take out the map with the stall owner's logo.

Looking at the place marked on the map, Xiao Yan frowned. The marked place is already outside the Diyuan State, at the junction with the Yunshen Mountains of the Demon Clan. It seems that it will take a lot of effort to refine this marrow repair pill and enhance the body's strength in the future.

After putting the map away, he closed his eyes again and began to run the blood spirit technique.

Now that practicing the Blood Spirit Art has become a compulsory lesson for Xiao Yan every day, there is still no movement from Youjue Mingling.

After practicing the Blood Spirit Art, Xiao Yan felt refreshed and decided to refine the Spirit Clear Liquid again.

The whole room became hot due to the sky fire.

This time there are three hundred and thirty-two sets of medicinal materials. Such a number, even if Xiao Yan's alchemy skills, fire control skills and proficiency have improved, is still a large amount and will consume a lot of Xiao Yan's energy and time.

Xiao Yan was immersed in refining and never stopped except to rest and practice the Blood Spirit Art.

In a flash, a month passed.

"call--"

Xiao Yan put the last batch of clear spirit liquid into the jade bottle and finally finished refining this batch.

This time I was much more proficient in refining the Spiritual Clear Liquid than before, and the failure rate was also much smaller. There were 332 medicinal materials, and a total of 247 bottles were successfully refined. Compared with the first time, it was a great improvement. improvement.

After Xiao Yan waved his hand to put away the Heavenly Fire and the Yanmu Cauldron, he put the jade bottles filled with clear spiritual liquid in the room one by one into the Najie, opened the door, and went to the auction house.

............

"You two young masters are so fast." Zhen Ni crossed her jade hands, looked at the large pile of jade bottles in front of her, said with a smile, and then ordered someone to take the clear spirit liquid.

After the clear spirit liquid was moved down, Zhen Ni turned around, her eyebrows softened, and she stretched out her hand: "Bring me your dragon pattern card."

"Last time, the auction of the first-line blood energy pill was completed not long after you left. Four dragon-marked coins were sold. I always felt that the sale was not good. The efficacy of this blood energy pill is almost the same as that of the three-line blood recovery pill, but it is better than the three-line blood recovery pill. The blood-recovering elixir sells for one dragon-marked coin less. Customers say that this is a second-grade elixir, so it should naturally be cheaper than a third-grade elixir. They don't bother to think about it. The second-grade elixir has the same effect as a third-grade elixir, so it should be better. .....Sigh, I feel like I can’t trust you anymore.”

Zhen Ni said to Xiao Yan while connecting the two cards.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. This is the money for the Blood Qi Pill. After deducting fees and taxes, the total is 2,344 dragon mark coins. Master, please confirm." Xiao Yan took his dragon mark card and scanned it at will. Take a look.

At this time, Le Shaolong came in from outside, nodded to Xiao Yan, then pouted at Zhen Ni, shrugged and shook his head.

Seeing Le Shaolong's actions, Xiao Yan was a little puzzled, while Zhen Ni frowned slightly.

It turns out that the last time Xiao Yan's list was released, the Merchant Alliance started a large number of experiments within this month, using all the refining methods of elixirs on the continent, and tried to punish all the top alchemists in the Merchant Alliance, but they all failed. Ended with failure. Although the refined potion can also restore Dou Qi and has some flavor of Qingling Liquid, it either cannot be restored instantly, or it can only restore a part of it. It still cannot achieve the effect of restoring the full Dou Qi of the Two-Star Dou Emperor instantly, let alone It's said to have additional healing effects.

After analysis and refining, it was confirmed that the ingredients in the formula were correct, which amazed all the alchemists who participated in the experiment.

Generally speaking, even if there is no prescription for a low-level potion of the second grade of the Emperor, a top alchemist can analyze and judge the formula and refine it. But now that there is a formula for the medicinal material, it still cannot be refined. According to the sample It couldn't be refined, which made both the top alchemists and the president of the Merchant Alliance Zhen Bufan have to sigh and marvel. It seems that this potion is not simple, and the method of refining it is very strange.

The business alliance's path of secretly learning prescriptions seems to be dead.

Zhen Ni looked at Le Shaolong's disappointed expression, smiled bitterly, turned her head and said to Xiao Yan.

"Shuang Gongzi, although the sales of this Blood Qi Pill are good, the demand for the Qingling Liquid is greater and the profit is larger. Do you think we should refine another batch of Qingling Liquid?"

Xiao Yan frowned slightly when he heard this. Although this Blood Qi Dan has less benefits and is slightly more difficult to refine than the Qingling Liquid, it can improve one's medicine refining skills faster, and at the same time, it can also generate Dan Lei to enhance Long Yi's strength.

Xiao Yan thought for a while and said, "I also want to refine another batch of blood energy pills."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Zhen Ni didn't look disappointed at all, she was still smiling: "Young master, you can do anything you practice."

Xiao Yan nodded and took out the list again: "Use all the money on the card to buy medicinal materials."

Zhen Ni took the list, said nothing, and immediately ordered people to purchase according to the order.

After learning about the Qingling Liquid prescription, Zhen Ni was no longer interested in the prescription.

"Two Young Masters, we are going to hold a special auction for the Qingling Liquid this time. What do you think?" Since she failed, she stopped thinking about it. Zhen Ni turned around and said to Xiao Yan.

"Special auction?" Xiao Yan was a little surprised. He didn't understand. How could a special auction be held for such a small amount of clear spirit liquid?

How did Xiao Yan know that this clear spirit liquid is now very famous, and it has caused quite a stir among the major forces, especially the Alchemy Palace. This kind of completely subversive medicinal effect is unheard of, and everyone has sent people to help. Contact the auction house and want to purchase this potion, not to mention the strong demand for the Yilu Qingling Liquid from countless two-star Dou Emperors.

But there are only more than two hundred bottles, how can it be enough for these people?

There was such a huge demand and it was hard to offend. Therefore, the Merchant Alliance decided to hold a special auction for Yiwen Qingling Liquid. In this way, it would not offend anyone, but it would also make more profits and build a reputation. If a business alliance cannot think of such a method of three gains, it will not be a business alliance.

"I don't understand business matters, just don't expose my identity." Xiao Yan didn't want to cause trouble because of the special auction.

Hearing Xiao Yan's worry, Le Shaolong said immediately.

"Don't worry, brother, it is our obligation to keep our customers' secrets secret. However... this clear spirit liquid is currently very famous, and there may be many people who want to find you. If someone goes to the Shadow Alliance to search for information... ..Fortunately, your identity has not been exposed in Juxi City, and the place where you live is safe, and our merchant alliance will do our best to protect you."

Obviously, although the Business Alliance has intelligence networks all over the continent, they still dare not underestimate the Shadow Alliance's intelligence capabilities.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He didn't expect that the Qingling Liquid would cause such a big sensation. He was really in some trouble now. It seemed that he would have to be more careful in the future.

...

While talking, all the medicinal materials for the six hundred and fifty sets of Blood Qi Pills were purchased. Xiao Yan has no interest in this special auction. Almost all his thoughts are now on improving his alchemy skills as soon as possible and refining the marrow repair pill. At the same time, he is also very interested in the grand meeting of the Alchemy Palace mentioned by Qing Haoran. Presumably there will be many masters of alchemy at that meeting. Thinking of this, Xiao Han's blood suddenly boiled. He hadn't had the pleasure of competition for a long time.

After Xiao Yan put away the medicinal materials, he bowed to Zhen Ni and Le Shaolong, then walked out of the auction house and quickly returned to his room to refine the elixir in seclusion.

Long Yi also came out of the tower and stood next to Xiao Yan.

Long Yi had already digested half of the pill thunder he had absorbed last time, and his strength had reached the level of a two-star Dou Emperor. He successfully survived the imperial calamity in the tower, and his body's strength was several times stronger than before. This will undoubtedly be of great help to Xiao Yan.

Start refining the Blood Qi Pill again.

Long Yi sat quietly aside. When Xiao Yan was refining, he absorbed the elixir in his body. Once the refining was successful, he went up to receive the elixir. Hundreds of times like this, Long Yi's body gradually became stronger and stronger, and his aura was also rising rapidly.

............

While Xiao Yan was refining the elixir, a special auction for the Yizhen Qingling Liquid was also held as scheduled.

On this day, the entire auction house was crowded. All major forces and mercenaries from all walks of life came after hearing the news, hoping to buy this magical potion that had been rumored recently.

On the auction stage in the auction hall, Zhen Bufan, Zhen Ni, and Le Shaolong stood with smiles on their faces, looking at the crowds of people entering the hall door.

The president of the Merchant Alliance personally presided over a special auction of only second-grade potions. This standard... was too high.

"Huh?" Zhen Bufan snorted lightly.

At the door of the auction hall, a group of people, led by an old man, walked in. The dense crowd in front of them quickly made a way for them. The reception staff of the auction house immediately greeted them and led this group of people to the entrance. VIP area.

"Haha, I didn't expect that the old ghost from the Dan Palace would also come." Zhen Bufan whispered to himself.

After a while, the demon clan members with extremely conspicuous snake-print marks on their robes also arrived. The middle-aged man stood at the door, scanning the almost crowded auction hall with his red eyes. The reception staff of the Merchant Alliance rushed to receive him.

After the people from the Demon Clan entered, Qing Haoran and a group of people from the Demon Clan also arrived, followed by a beautiful woman with a proud figure and an arrogant and unruly face, it was Qing Mu'er.

Speaking of Qing Muer, since she heard that Xiao Yan was going to Juxi City that day, she secretly rushed to Juxi City in advance and waited at the flying bird landing point of the demon clan. However, there is such a large flow of people in Juxicheng, and there are more than one starting and landing points for flying birds in the same area. If you don't pay attention, you will miss it. Qing Muer did not wait for Xiao Yan.

The sensation caused by the release of Qingling Liquid naturally spread to Qing Haoran. Others may have never heard of the name Qingling Liquid, but the second elder of the Blood Demon Clan is familiar with it. It is the old Demon Emperor's exclusive recipe, and he had taken it when he was still the Two-Star Dou Emperor.

Qing Haoran concluded that this must be related to Xiao Yan.

As the leader of the demon clan, Qing Haoran knew very well that this clear spirit liquid would bring great trouble to Xiao Yan, so he personally led his people to Juxi City.

As soon as Qing Haoran entered the hall, the power of his soul was locked on Zhen Bufan, the president of the Merchant Alliance, and Zhen Ni on the auction stage.

"Is this the new Demon Emperor?" Zhen Ni was locked by the power of Qing Haoran's soul and felt it immediately.

"It's him. The demons are worthy of being demons, and the power of their souls is truly amazing." Zhen Bufan said softly with a raised corner of his mouth as he watched Qing Haoran take a seat in the VIP area.

Later, people from the human Zhen family also arrived.

"Today's scene is really quite big. I didn't expect that more than two hundred bottles of second-grade medicine would attract people from all major forces." Le Shaolong sighed.

"I'm afraid there are people from the Shadow Alliance coming too. Those people are well hidden," Zhen Ni said.

The flow of people is still pouring in, and the entire auction hall is overcrowded. There are no seats for a long time, and even the aisles are crowded with people.

"Close the door." Zhen Bufan ordered Le Shaolong. Le Shaolong immediately walked down quickly and organized people to close the door of the hall.

Suddenly, countless curses and sighs came from outside.

This hot scene completely shocked Zhen Bufan. Even Zhen Ni did not expect that the thirty bottles of Yilu Qingling Liquid that were auctioned for the first time would have such an influence in just one month. and market appeal, a huge market prospect appeared in front of the business alliance. At this time, Zhen Bufan secretly made up his mind to win cooperation with Xiao Yan at all costs.

The special auction ended successfully with fierce bidding and fierce fighting. As expected, the two hundred and forty-seven bottles of one-mark clear spirit fluid were swept away by various forces. The lowest price was 380 dragon mark coins per bottle, and the highest price was actually 400. For a bottle of second-grade medicine, it would be an exorbitant price to say that Ninety Dragon Pattern Coins are sky-high. Such an outrageous price is naturally unaffordable for ordinary people who really want to buy it and take it. Of course, when these forces bought it back, they did not give it to their disciples, but used it as samples for cracking and experiments like the previous business alliance.

This made Xiao Yan make a huge profit.

After each force obtained the Clear Spirit Liquid, except for the Blood Demon Clan, they all, like the Merchant Alliance, immediately invested manpower and started analysis, refinement and copying work. It can be said that at this time, almost all the top alchemists in the continent were studying this A bottle of magical clear spirit liquid, the topic that the entire continent was discussing after dinner, was also a trace of the clear spirit liquid.

The flow of people in the Shangmeng District seemed to have suddenly increased a lot because of the Qingling Liquid, and the sales of goods were several times more than usual.

A few days passed, and without exception, the efforts of all forces failed.

The Merchant Alliance had previously obtained the formula for the medicinal materials but had failed to do so, not to mention that these forces did not even have the formula.

The entire Doudi Continent is surrounded by Qingling Liquid, with undercurrents surging.

............

Inside the Dan Palace in Juxi City

in a large hall

"The potion that instantly restores full fighting spirit...the first line of clear spirit liquid...the second line, the third line...it's really magical. Mingchenzi, what do you think?" An old man with silver hair asked an old man in black robe.

"I have personally analyzed and refined several bottles of potions, and the ingredients can basically be confirmed. They are all extremely low-level medicinal materials. I have to admit that the formula is very wonderful, but I have tried all kinds of refining methods, and the potions that come out cannot reach the instantaneous level. The best bottle can only restore 60% of the fighting spirit instantly, and it has no healing effect... I guess this potion must have a unique refining method... "The old man named Ming Chenzi said.

"Keep talking." Old Man Yin encouraged.

"We know best how many refining techniques and methods there are in the Dou Emperor Continent. Are there any who can compete with our Alchemy Palace in refining medicine? The Medicine Clan? They don't have this ability, so...I guess, This prescription is not current.”

"You mean..." Old Man Yin seemed to understand something.

Ming Chenzi nodded: "Some time ago, ancient ruins appeared in Dizhou. Someone went in and brought out the Blood Demon Order. You must have heard about this."

Old Man Yin frowned, nodded slightly, and murmured: "I understand... that old devil, Blood Demon Xuanhuang, must be him and his prescription!"

Then he turned to ask another person sharply: "Did the person who went in check it?"

"I checked. His name is Xiao Yan. He is from the Xiao clan in the Imperial State. He came to Juxicheng not long ago."

"This Xiao Yan should also be an alchemist. Has he registered for the examination in our Alchemy Hall?" Old Man Yin asked urgently.

"No, I checked all the rosters and there is no one named Xiao Yan."

"It seems that the Merchant Alliance was dragged away by the Merchant Alliance before they even came to our Alchemy Palace. The Merchant Alliance is really a good trick. Judging from the quantity of medicine, the Merchant Alliance should not have received the prescription yet. Immediately send people to find the Shadow Alliance and do whatever it takes. The price must be to find this person named Xiao Yan and win him over to our Dan Palace as much as possible. If not, he must not be allowed to cooperate with the Merchant Alliance..." At this point, a glimmer of light flashed in Old Man Yin's eyes. Then, his eyes instantly became gloomy.

"Alchemist... Dan Hui..." Old Man Yin narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to be thinking about something, tapping his fingers on the table, and after a moment, he slammed the table.

"The Alchemy Meeting will be held in advance!" Old Man Yin said loudly. For a moment, everyone in the hall looked at each other, and then they all understood. If the merchant alliance gets the cooperation of Xiao Yan, plus the ancient prescription of the old demon emperor that no one can explain, with the energy of the merchant alliance, the entire elixir market will be seized by them. Such a thing will never be allowed by the Alchemy Palace. born.

Old Man Yin's eyes were filled with a strange look at this time.

............

Human race, Zhen family

"Failed?" A middle-aged man with a graceful face sat on the chair in the middle and asked the dozen or so people sitting below.

Everyone was silent, but everyone was in a low mood.

"Don't be depressed. I expected failure. If it were that easy to crack, the second child would have figured it out long ago. He is much better than me in this aspect. By the way, how about the Alchemy Palace?" The young man picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"The news sent back from over there also failed." Someone replied below.

"Hahaha, even the Alchemy Palace failed, what else do you have to be depressed about? The second one found a treasure this time. Have you checked, who is the person who refined this potion?"

The middle-aged man is obviously in a good mood.

"They didn't find it, but according to the news from the Dan Palace, they concluded that it was the person who sent the Blood Demon Order from the ancient ruins of Dizhou not long ago."

"Oh? What's this person's name?" The middle-aged man became a little interested.

"My name is Xiao Yan. He is a descendant of the Xiao clan in Dizhou. He should be in Juxicheng now."

"Dizhou Xiao Clan? Is this Xiao Yao's Xiao Clan?"

"yes."

"Haha, it's interesting. The Xiao clan has become famous this time. Oh, by the way, hasn't Xiao Yao been found yet?" The middle-aged man seemed to be very familiar with Xiao Yao, the ancestor of the Xiao family.

"not yet......"

"This stubborn old man, I only said that having a four-star Dou Emperor in Dizhou was enough, but the old man actually... actually ran away from home, saying that he didn't need the help of my Zhen family and wanted to break through to five stars on his own. ...Oh! How stubborn... Xiao Li is still in charge of the Xiao clan now, right?" The middle-aged man asked again after sighing for a while.

"It's Xiao Li."

"Well, Xiao Li is quite stable. Is there any news in the Xiao clan recently?"

"Some time ago, because Xiao Yan entered the ancient ruins, the Xiao clan was controlled by the soul demon clan..."

"Pa", the middle-aged man slapped the armrest and asked sternly: "Why didn't you report it?"

"Captain, when we got the news, Qing Haoran had already led people to resolve the matter..." the people below replied tremblingly.

The middle-aged man stared at the person who answered with sharp eyes for a long time before he said: "Send someone to send some ore to the Xiao clan to appease them. In addition, keep people in Dizhou to pay attention to the Xiao clan's movements." The young man is still angry.

"Clan leader, are we taking the Xiao clan..." The person who asked the question opened the five fingers of his right hand and closed them again.

"No! If we do that, who will be willing to follow us in the future? Let the second child worry about this. I don't know how many forces are staring at Xiao Yan now. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to get out of Juxi City. The second child It's going to be a lot of work to get his cooperation, but after all, the second one is also from my Zhen family... I sent people to keep an eye on the auction house. This time, let's help the second one. "

"yes!"

............

Monster clan

meeting hall

"How was it? Was it successful?" A strong middle-aged man asked everyone present.

"No...even the formula has not been determined..."

"A bunch of trash! What do we feed you for? I can't even analyze the formula of a bottle of second-grade medicine!" the middle-aged man yelled angrily.

"Have you sent someone to find the man named Xiao Yan..."

"Don't blame them. This potion is not simple. It was a perfect recipe in ancient times." Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, an old woman's voice came from behind the curtain behind her. Wanfang's old woman walked out slowly, twisting her rosary beads.

"Ancestor, why are you out here?" The middle-aged man immediately stood up respectfully and said extremely filially.

"If I don't come out, you will get into trouble." The old woman said calmly.

"Do you know whose prescription for that potion belongs to?" the old woman asked the middle-aged man.

"No... I don't know." The middle-aged man replied timidly, his tone much lower.

"You don't know anything, so you want to decipher it? Let me tell you, that prescription was given by the Blood Demon Xuan Emperor during the ancient catastrophe! Humph, you are now the leader of the demon clan, and you don't even understand this, so you just think about it. . "The old woman did not save face for the leader of the demon clan just because she had subordinates.

"Then...what does the ancestor mean...?" The middle-aged man did not dare to express his anger, so he stood aside and asked cautiously.

"How many people tried to crack that recipe back then, but no one succeeded! Dan Chenzi, oh, he is the current master of the Dan Palace, a ninth-grade alchemist. I heard that there was nothing that could be done. Just you... ..? Come on down, don’t waste time.”

"No!" Except for the middle-aged man, everyone in the hall retreated.

"Huan'er, it's not that our ancestors want to blame you in front of everyone. Pills are not the specialty of our demon clan. Besides, the person who refined this potion obviously got the inheritance from the old devil. Since he is We still have some shares in the Merchant Alliance, so why should we join in the fun? Isn’t it better for us to just watch the excitement and enjoy the benefits?" The old woman asked the demon clan leader Zhan Huan. .

"The ancestor is right." After being prompted by the ancestor, the middle-aged man suddenly became enlightened, "Should we send some people to secretly help the merchant alliance when necessary?"

The old woman nodded, with a happy smile on her face: "At last you are not confused."

"Sigh, our demon tribe should have taken advantage of it after the catastrophe. The strengthening of the five-star emperor tribulation is very beneficial to our demon tribe. It's a pity that the saint has fallen..." The old woman suddenly sigh.

"Ancestor, I have used various channels to find out about the saint in various planes..."

"The birth of a saint is God's will... It depends on whether God will favor my demon clan... I am old, so I can only try my best to protect my demon clan..." After saying that, he turned around and walked slowly behind the curtain.

............

The mysterious shadow alliance

In a small but exquisite room, there were two masked men.

"How's the situation outside?"

"They all failed. They are all trying to find out Xiao Yan's whereabouts."

"It must be in the hands of the Merchant Alliance. Have we found it?"

"No, there is no clue at all. I only know that Xiao Yan came to find the Yao Clan, but the Yao Clan did not see him."

"How's it going over there in Dizhou?"

"The Xiao Clan has no news about Xiao Yan at all. Should we control the Xiao Clan and force Xiao Yan to show up?"

"No! Firstly, it will not do us any good, and secondly, it will expose us. The one who is most interested in Xiao Yan now should be the Dan Palace. They have sent people to find us to help them find out Xiao Yan's whereabouts."

"Then what do we do?"

"Do your best to find out. We will not wade into this muddy water, but we must muddy the water and let them fight."

"Yes, understand."

............

Demon clan, the residence of Qing Haoran in Juxicheng

Qing Haoran sat thoughtfully. Since obtaining the Blood Demon Order and the Blood Demon Ring, his strength has increased rapidly and has now reached the peak of six stars.

Qing Haoran picked up a bottle of Yiwei Qingling Liquid, smelled it with the tip of his nose at the mouth of the bottle, and said with some worry: "It seems that Xiao Yan is in trouble this time..."

Qing Mu'er sat aside, her eyes tightened when she heard Qing Haoran's words: "What does the Merchant Alliance want to do with Xiao Yan? No matter how many potions there are, how much can Xiao Yan refine? It's better to pay for two five-star magic cores. many."

"What do you know? The Merchant Alliance is trying to force Xiao Yan to hand over the prescription, refine it in batches, and control the market for the elixir. The Merchant Alliance has been thinking about this for tens of thousands of years, and it's not a secret. It's just in the hands of the ancestor emperor. Those tricks can definitely be done," Qing Haoran analyzed to Qing Mu'er.

"Wow, no wonder he refused when I gave him something. It turned out that he got such good things from the ancestor emperor! Brother, let's find Xiao Yan and get the prescription back. Let's control the market for elixirs, okay? ? That can make a lot of money." Qing Muer's eyes flashed, as if she saw a lot of money piled in front of her eyes.

"Nonsense, can we do that?" Qing Haoran scolded.

"That originally belonged to the Ancestor Emperor..." Qing Muer pursed her lips and argued in a low voice.

"That was the reward for the blood demon order given by the ancestor emperor to Xiao Yan. Do you think it is the blood demon order that is more important or the prescriptions?"

"But now Xiao Yan has been captured by the Merchant Alliance. We have to rescue Xiao Yan. It is better for the Merchant Alliance to benefit us..." Qing Muer said unconvinced.

"Ahem..." Seeing the two brothers and sisters arguing endlessly, the second elder on the side coughed lightly, "I think Xiao Yan is also a stubborn person and will not hand over the prescription easily. The prescription should not have reached the merchant alliance yet. In my hand, if this is the case, I'm afraid Xiao Yan will be in more than just trouble..." He is a person who has experienced the catastrophe of heaven and earth, so his experience is naturally much deeper.

When Qing Haoran heard this, his expression changed and his brows immediately furrowed. It seemed that things were worse than he imagined.

After thinking for a long time, Qing Haoran stood up and said, "Let's go meet Zhen Bufan for a while."

............

Business alliance, auction house, special room for the president of the business alliance

"Haha, the Demon Emperor is here. Welcome." Zhen Bufan warmly received Qing Haoran and his party.

"People from the Merchant Alliance told me that you were at the auction house, so you came uninvited. President Zhen shouldn't blame you for being abrupt."

"Hey, I can't even invite any distinguished guests. The Demon Emperor is too polite. Everyone, please take a seat! Let's serve tea!" Zhen Bufan greeted Qing Haoran and others while guessing in his mind the purpose of their coming here.

"I wonder what urgent matter the Demon King has in rushing to see Zhen?"

"Haha, the president must have guessed my purpose of coming, right?" Qing Haoran sat in the guest seat and looked at Zhen Bufan and said calmly.

"Please ask the Demon King for advice."

In the past, the president of the Merchant Alliance would not have been so polite to Qing Haoran, but now that Qing Haoran has received the Blood Demon Order and has become the new Demon Emperor, he will naturally be respectful.

"I'm here for Xiao Yan." Qing Haoran said his purpose and looked at Zhen Bufan.

"Xiao Yan? The Xiao Yan who gave you the Blood Demon Order?"

"Yes, that's him. Please tell me, President Zhen, where Xiao Yan is now."

"The Demon Emperor asked the wrong person. How do I know where this Xiao Yan is now? I don't know him." Zhen Bufan's expression did not change at all and he answered calmly.

"President Zhen, the clear spirit liquid you are auctioning is the unique recipe of my ancestor emperor. Only Xiao Yan has entered the ancestral ruins. No one can refine this clear spirit liquid except Xiao Yan. What can you say? I wonder where he is?" Qing Haoran's voice became a little stern.

"Demon Emperor, it's wrong to say that. I think the Demon Emperor also knows that our auction house only sells things without asking about their provenance. This is our rule. We don't know who brought the clear spiritual fluid for auction. "Clear." Zhen Bufan is also well-informed and can answer questions fluently.

"Okay, President Zhen, we are all sensible people, so there is no need to fight. I know the thoughts of the Business Alliance. I, the Demon Clan, are also one of the shareholders of the Business Alliance. It is said that this matter will also be good for my Demon Clan... ..If the president doesn't admit it, then he won't admit it. However, I have to explain a few things to President Zhen. "Qing Haoran doesn't want to be entangled with Zhen Bufan anymore. In this situation, Zhen Bufan is required to hand over Xiao. inflammation, obviously impossible.

"First of all, since my ancestor emperor passed these prescriptions to Xiao Yan, they belong to Xiao Yan, and we, the demon clan, do not want to covet them; secondly, I don't care how the merchant alliance wants to cooperate with Xiao Yan, as long as Xiao Yan himself is willing That's fine. However, I don't want anyone to force Xiao Yan to do something he doesn't want to do, and I don't want anything to happen to Xiao Yan. The president may not know that Xiao Yan and I are brothers, and he is from my demon clan. My benefactor, if I hear that something bad happened to Xiao Yan, no matter who it is, I will put the blame on your business alliance, and my demon clan will fight your business alliance until death!" Qing Haoran said solemnly and solemnly! Zhen Bufan said, his eyes full of determination.

Hearing this, Zhen Bufan smiled bitterly and said solemnly to Qing Haoran: "Don't worry, the Demon King, if we have news about Xiao Yan, we will do our best to protect his safety and will never harm him. If necessary, When the time comes, please ask the Demon King for help."

Qing Haoran stared at Zhen Bufan for a long time, nodded silently, stood up, stretched out his hand to shake Zhen Bufan's hand, and said goodbye.

As soon as Qing Haoran left, Zhen Bufan immediately summoned Zhen Ni and Le Shaolong.

"Now that all the forces are targeting Xiao Yan, we are under great pressure. Please tell us your opinions." Zhen Bufan said to the two of them.

"Why bother? Just kill him and you will have all the old Demon Emperor's prescriptions. Maybe you can also get a lot of rare treasures." Le Shaolong said in a low voice and decisively.

"No, the Demon Emperor Qing Haoran has just come to see me. If anything happens to Xiao Yan, the Demon Clan will put the blame on us and fight us until death."

"Have we really become his free bodyguards?" Le Shaolong said with a wry smile.

"How about we talk to Xiao Yan directly and hope he can cooperate with us." Zhen Ni gently rubbed her face with her white fingers and said softly.

"I guess it's difficult. If it were you, Xiao Yan, would you agree easily?" Le Shaolong disagreed with Zhen Ni's suggestion.

"Let's explain the stakes and his current situation clearly to him. I think he will consider it." Zhen Ni still insisted on talking.

"Before the danger is extremely high, do you think Xiao Yan can believe it? Besides, he has a big brother like the Demon Emperor..." Le Shaolong still felt that talking would not work.

Zhen Bufan sat on a chair. When he heard Le Shaolong's words, his eyes flickered, as if he had caught some inspiration and was thinking about it.

"Shaolong, you reminded me. Let's talk as Ni Yatou said, but not now." Zhen Bufan said, "Isn't the Dan meeting going to be held in advance? This is obviously for Xiao Yan. , we will follow our plan. Tell Xiao Yan about the alchemy meeting, I think he will definitely go, there is no alchemist who doesn’t want to participate in the alchemy meeting like this..."

"President, what a great idea! But I'm worried, what if Xiao Yan's conditions are too high?" Le Shaolong raised a new question.

"No matter how high the conditions are, they are just conditions, nothing more than interests. Compared to the pill market..." Zhen Ni expressed her opinion.

"Girl Ni is right! Girl, you have made progress, hahaha... We must try our best to protect Xiao Yan's whereabouts without making any mistakes." Zhen Bufan said firmly.

Just when all major forces were looking for Xiao Yan, the Merchant Alliance specially arranged a secret room for Xiao Yan in the backyard for Xiao Yan's safety. There was a small wormhole in the room that could lead directly to Zhen Ni's office room. , In this way, a lot of troubles and hidden dangers will be saved.

Xiao Yan was naturally extremely satisfied with this arrangement. Although Xiao Yan has realized that he is in a dangerous situation, he is now focused on improving his alchemy skills and completely ignores everything in the outside world. Besides, it is only here that he is safest.

Xiao Yan was in the room specially arranged by the Merchant Alliance, immersed in the refining of elixirs and potions.

After refining a batch, they take it to the auction house for auction, then refine it again, and then take it to the auction house. Long Yi kept devouring Dan Lei, and his strength was rapidly increasing; when Xiao Yan was running the Blood Spirit Art, there was still no movement from You Jue Ming Ling, and his soul power had not improved at all.

During this period, Xiao Yan also intermittently collected medicinal materials for the Second Line Qingling Liquid and the Second Line Blood Qi Pill.

Half a year passed by in a flash.

"boom--"

In the quiet courtyard, a wave of energy roared out from Xiao Yan's room. The leaves of the trees outside the room were broken and withered. Xiao Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the ashes in the medicine cauldron reluctantly.

"The last step, why can't you always succeed? It seems that I still lack something. The Alchemy Conference will be held soon, and there should be many top alchemists gathered there. Well, you can go and have a look..." Xiao Yan murmured murmured.
