A Diary of a Character in Battle Through the Heavens! The Female Characters Have Gone Wrong!

Chapter 159 The Old Man of Medicine is More Effective Than a Beauty Trap

Terrifying!?

Even Chu Xiao's single move to suppress a Dou Zong expert did not shock Yun Shan and the others as much as this scene.

Queen Medusa, who had already broken through to the Dou Zong level, actually let him take her hand.

Furthermore, he called out "Cai Lin" in the tone he used when speaking to his Daoist partner.

This is even more astonishing than killing a Dou Zong in front of them.

But the next moment, they realized they had surprised too early.

"What else?"

Queen Medusa merely symbolically pulled her hand away before letting Chu Xiao hold it, her ear tips turning slightly red, displaying a somewhat womanly demeanor.

"I've only suppressed Protector Wu; I haven't killed him yet." Chu Xiao smiled as his gaze swept across everyone's faces. "I'd appreciate it if you all could join forces to kill him."

"This is a four-star Dou Zong. You've never killed one before, have you?"

Everyone: "."

We had never even seen it before.

"I suppressed him with my methods, and he is unable to use spatial techniques."

"As a protector of the Soul Palace, his advantage lies in his soul power rather than his physical strength."

"After I suppressed him, he was even slightly weaker than an ordinary peak Dou Huang."

"If you all join forces, there is no risk in killing him."

Chu Xiao smiled slightly: "Killing a Dou Zong expert will also benefit your future breakthrough to Dou Zong."

"Count me in." Hai Bodong was the first to sign up.

“I’m fine with it,” Yun Yun quickly replied.

"I also want revenge." Yun Shan composed himself, his killing intent rising rapidly.

Jia Xingtian's eye twitched.

Hai Bodong is practically changing his surname to Chu, so naturally he's willing to help.

Yun Yun and Chu Xiao's relationship isn't quite right either, so she'd definitely be willing.

Even if Yunshan didn't mention the life-saving grace, he still had to help out of respect for Yunyun.

He despised it.

"I wish to join the Lingxiao Pavilion, at the behest of Pavilion Master Chu," Jia Xingtian said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

Stare~
Everyone cast mocking glances at Jia Xingtian.

"Tsk." Cai Lin let out a meaningful laugh.

Jia Xingtian: "."

Fama: You guys make me look stupid.

"Thank you, Pavilion Master Chu, for giving me an opportunity to break through to the Dou Zong realm. I am willing to lend a hand," Fa Ma said after some thought.

As the president of the Alchemist Guild, he could not make a hasty decision to join Lingxiao Pavilion.

But his personal assistance to Chu Xiao demonstrates a friendly attitude, so there's no problem.

"Since everyone is willing, then please proceed."

Chu Xiao raised one hand, using his soul power to communicate with the Ziwei Tiangang Tower and condense the illusory entrance.

A spatial fluctuation arose, transforming into a massive portal.

It provides direct access to the Heavenly Tower within the small world.

"What a strong wave!"

The Fire Child, hidden in the void, narrowed its pupils.

Having seen many powerful warriors since childhood, she discovered that the sects behind them brought a sense of oppression, even one that was on the same level or even subtly surpassed it.

This Chu Xiao actually has a Dou Sheng powerhouse behind him!?

Could it be that not all the powerful members of the Xiao Clan at the Dou Zun level or above perished in the fierce battle against the Soul Clan?

"I'm going."

Cai Lin released Chu Xiao's hand and took a step forward, entering the doorway first.

Seeing this, the others set off and followed closely behind.

"Young Master, does this old servant need to come along?" Ling Ying's voice appeared.

"There's no need." Chu Xiao casually waved his hand to close the portal, then focused a sliver of his attention on the Ziwei Tiangang Tower: "If you go there again, it'll be too much of a rip-off."

Ling Ying immediately disappeared.

Chu Xiao turned his head and looked at a middle-aged man with wings formed from his battle qi: "Dan Wang Gu He?"

This man has a refined appearance and an otherworldly demeanor, making him easy to like.

"Guhe greets Pavilion Master Chu." Guhe clasped his hands in greeting.

Under normal circumstances, let alone a three-star Dou Wang, even Dou Huang powerhouses like Xing Tian and Yun Yun, he, a sixth-grade alchemist, could treat them as equals.

With multiple Dou Zong behind him, and capable of suppressing Dou Zong himself, and able to easily produce sixth-grade pills, Chu Xiao was clearly qualified to make him bow down.

"You're too kind, Pill King." Chu Xiao raised his hand and extended a direct invitation: "Would you be willing to join my Lingxiao Pavilion?"

"You mean to join?" Dan Wang asked curiously. Many forces had invited him to be a guest elder or a respected elder, but he only accepted the invitation from the Yunlan Sect.

Chu Xiao's words seemed to imply more than that.

"Become an elder of my Lingxiao Pavilion's Pill Hall." Chu Xiao was very direct.

"What can I get in return?" Guhe did not refuse immediately, but inquired about the terms.

For someone like Chu Xiao to openly recruit him, he must have some confidence in the matter.

"There are many benefits, but I don't think it's necessary to go into detail." Chu Xiao chuckled and revealed his trump card: "If you are willing to join Lingxiao Pavilion, I can give you the opportunity to become a disciple of Medicine Venerable. Even if you fail the assessment, you can still become a nominal disciple."

Chu Xiao could easily conjure up empty promises.

Gu He wanted to become Yao Chen's disciple, but that was simply impossible.

But being a nominal disciple is no problem.

Although he was only a sixth-grade alchemist at the age of forty, his self-taught background in a small place like the Jia Ma Empire shows that he had some talent.

Most importantly, he has good character and I can trust him to be my subordinate.

Gu He clenched his fists, his heart pounding uncontrollably, and asked incredulously, "You mean the chance to become someone's apprentice?"

"The Medicine Venerable?" Chu Xiao smiled faintly.

"What Venerable One?" Guhe asked again for confirmation.

“Master Medicine.” Chu Xiao’s smile froze slightly.

"What medicine?" Gu He asked for the third time.

Chu Xiao: "."

Are you trying to act out a movie with me?
"Your most admired alchemist, the youngest record holder for the Pill Tower's Pill Competition, the former number one eighth-grade peak alchemist on the continent, the Venerable Medicine Master Yao Chen!" Chu Xiao answered for the last time.

If Guhe dares to ask again, he really will hit him.

“Okay, I agree!” Gu He agreed without hesitation, his eyes filled with the piety of a pilgrim.

Chu Xiao was not surprised by this.

Before speaking, he had used the Heavenly Evolution Technique to calculate the success rate and the best plan to recruit Guhe.

Compared to having Yun Yun use her beauty as a more reliable and effective method, having Yao Chen use his idol as a strategist is a better option.

Dan Wang Guhe was once just an ordinary cultivator who, by chance, fell off a cliff and received the inheritance of a fifth-grade alchemist.

That fifth-grade alchemist came from Zhongzhou and was once a big fan of Yao Chen. Even when he was dying and leaving behind his legacy, he did not forget to sing his praises and worship him.

Because of this inheritance, Gu He defied the heavens and changed his fate, growing to the level of a peak Dou Wang and a sixth-grade alchemist. His strength and status are top-notch in the Jia Ma Empire, and he has great respect for the predecessor who left behind the inheritance.

Therefore, he also inherited his predecessor's worship and admiration for the Medicine Master.

He was a gentleman and thought that if he could become a disciple of Yao Lao, it would fulfill the senior's dream.

"But I heard that the Medicine Venerable Senior disappeared more than twenty years ago?" Gu He asked in confusion.

As a sixth-grade alchemist, he has many friends and a wide and comprehensive source of information.

He has been collecting information about Zhongzhou.

"Yes, he was betrayed by his apprentice and almost died." Chu Xiao nodded: "Thanks to my family, he was spared."

If Xiao Yan hadn't possessed sufficient soul power, allowing Yao Lao to absorb some Dou Qi and finally come into contact with the energy of heaven and earth to recover, his soul might have truly perished over time.

"I see." Gu He finally understood why Chu Xiao dared to make such a boast.

Therefore, the pills he took out were probably made by the Medicine Venerable.

Upon realizing this, Guhe's eyes burned even brighter.

"Is it done?"

Chu Xiao glanced around and raised his hand to condense a pagoda-like image.

Inside the Ziwei Tiangang Tower in the small world, Protector Wu dodged Cai Lin's kick in a very disheveled manner, but was struck by Yun Shan's sword and fell to the ground, creating a huge crater.

Knowing that he was doomed to die today, Protector Wu hardened his heart and ignited the mark in his soul.

"Hehehe, I am a Earth-level Protector of the Soul Palace."

"The Venerable One who oversees the Northwest Continent Branch of the Soul Palace once bestowed upon a mark of an esteemed being."

"If you want to kill me, you will all be buried with me."

As the sound resounded, a dark, black flame rose from within the body of the Protector Wu.

The flames ignited the soul of the guardian deity, turning it into purple fuel that began to devour everything around it.

Terrifying energy began to compress, giving rise to a chilling pressure.

"He's trying to self-destruct!" Yunshan's expression changed drastically, and he warned, "Don't hold back, use your strongest methods to kill him."

The self-destruction of the Protector Wu looks different from ordinary self-destructions.

If the black flames were to absorb enough power, they might not be able to stop them.

To their shock, after they unleashed their fighting techniques, they were all engulfed by the strange flames.

Chu Xiao smiled at this, saying, "At least it wasn't all for nothing."

"That way your death will have value."

Thunderous and divine flames rose up.
