My father is the main character, but the female leads want to kill me.

Immediately afterwards, the ball of light transformed into a golden beam of light and entered Wen Qianyi's brow.

Wen Qianyi immediately felt a large amount of information flooding into her mind. She closed her eyes and processed it calmly. About ten minutes later, Wen Qianyi opened her eyes.

Lin Ran asked eagerly, "Qianyi, can this seventh-grade pill be refined?"

Faced with Lin Ran's questioning, Wen Qianyi looked troubled. Lin Ran, seeing this, assumed that she couldn't refine it and sighed, saying, "It seems that you, Qianyi, can't refine it. We'll have to think of another way."

“I can try, maybe I can refine it, but senior… what… what do you want to do with such a vicious pill?” Wen Qianyi looked at Lin Ran with concern. Although she really wanted to help Lin Ran, who was Lin Ran going to give such a pill to?

Lin Ran sensed something was off when she heard Wen Qianyi's words, and couldn't help but look at Fan Hua and say, "Fan Hua, give me a copy of this prescription too. Isn't it just a pill to seal one's strength?"

"Senior, let me tell you!"

Wen Qianyi glared at Lin Ran and said through gritted teeth, "Why do I say this pill is insidious and vicious? It not only works on women, but one of its main ingredients is the Ghostly Resentful Face Flower. This flower has a woman's face on it and will sometimes make a mournful and plaintive cry."

Its main function is to control the woman who takes the pill. Not only that, it can also torture her. Moreover, the sealing power of this pill is beyond imagination. It can seal the power of the Undying Realm or even the peak of the Undying Realm, preventing them from using it. It is not limited to spiritual power, but can also seal bloodline power and soul power.

There are many other medicines, but I won't go into detail. Senior, what do you intend to use them for? If you don't tell me, I won't refine them for you.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ran's eyes widened. He quickly grabbed Fan Hua's shoulders, his voice rising slightly: "Fan Hua, why did you give me this kind of prescription?"

Fan Hua said helplessly, "Only those evil sects would research pills that can seal strength, so the ingredients they use must be insidious. This is the only prescription I can find that can seal someone in the Undying Realm. Whether you use it or not is up to you."

But other methods are certainly not as reliable as this one, and this one also has an antidote; all the others are designed to torture people to death.

This kind of thing is inherently heretical and unacceptable to the mainstream in mainland China. Most of the researchers are also from heretical factions. The reason why Fan Hua has these things is because it obtained them from some heretical factions that were eliminated back then.

In that era, there were quite a few evil female cultivators who were extremely powerful. Many of them killed without blinking an eye, or killed in a perverse way.

Behind them are also deeply entrenched dark forces. While they are dealing with the Void Evil Clan in front, these people behind them are causing trouble. If you didn't know better, you would think that they are on the same side as the Void Evil Clan.

So later I thought about researching this elixir to see if it could be used for interrogation, specifically for interrogating those captured evil women. I also thought about controlling these people to deal with the Void Evil Clan and relieve some of the pressure on the front lines.

Just then, Lin Ran mentioned whether there was such a pill, and Fan Hua immediately thought of it. It really wasn't that she was deliberately being malicious!

Upon hearing what Fan Hua said, Wen Qianyi suddenly shouted, "Sister Fan Hua, do you know who Lin Ran is going to use this pill against?"

Fan Hua thought about it for a moment, but still didn't dare to say anything. She couldn't betray her master, otherwise what would she be called!

With Fan Hua remaining silent, Wen Qianyi could only turn her attention back to Lin Ran, staring at her intently. If Lin Ran didn't give her an explanation today, she would absolutely not help refine such a vicious pill.

"I'm going to give this pill to my sister-in-law who's in the cultivation room. I'm afraid that after I wake her up, she'll want to kill me again..." Lin Ran said, pointing in the direction of the cultivation room.

"The one who suffered severe fire poisoning?"

Wen Qianyi recalled, but then she continued, "Her physical condition is terrible. She has very little spiritual energy, and her soul power is extremely weak. Giving her this kind of pill is a bit too much..."

"She still has the power of her bloodline. She was able to withstand such terrifying fire poison entirely because of that power. If I were to revive her, with her Undying Realm strength, I feel like she could slap me to death," Lin Ran said helplessly.

He examined Mu Shishuang's body thoroughly. Although the fire poison accumulation was still severe, he had helped remove some of the fire poison before setting off for the secret realm. Now, the fire poison and bloodline power in Mu Shishuang's body had formed a wonderful balance.

It won't get worse, but it's also unlikely to get better.

"this…"

Wen Qianyi also knew something about the woman in the coffin. She had caused a lot of trouble for her senior, but if the senior wanted to know about his wife, he had to go through this "sister-in-law".

Wen Qianyi paced back and forth in the living room with a frown, not saying a word. Lin Ran didn't urge her either. If there was really no other way, he could only gamble that this "sister-in-law" still had some humanity, otherwise he would have to die again.

After thinking for a long time, Wen Qianyi finally nodded in agreement. Compared to her "sister-in-law," Wen Qianyi cared more about Lin Ran's life.

"Senior, I can help you refine this pill, but you must promise me that you won't use it for anything excessive, okay? It can only be used to ensure your life is not threatened!" Wen Qianyi said, staring at Lin Ran.

"I promise!"

Lin Ran agreed without hesitation. As long as his "little sister-in-law" was sensible, he would definitely not use such a trick, but he did not say that he would give up using it.

Although it was despicable, it was already merciful of him not to torture the guy who had "died once" before.

Of course, even though Wen Qianyi agreed to refine the pills, she couldn't start refining them immediately.

First, there's the issue of medicinal materials; many of these are highly toxic and difficult to find. Second, there's the issue of alchemy.

"Senior, I can help you find the medicinal herbs, but I may not be able to refine this pill in a short time."

Wen Qianyi continued, "I've been stuck at the sixth-level alchemist for a long time. I've always wanted to break through to the seventh level, but I've failed every time."

Now that I've reached the eighth level of the Nirvana Realm, and I've also refined the Jade Amber Blood Flame, I'm confident that I can advance to the seventh-level alchemist.

But I still need to practice with some other seventh-grade pills so that I can be more confident in refining this Ghostly Vengeance Pill later.”

"It's alright, it's alright. I'll listen to you when it comes to refining pills. I don't know anything about these things, so I'll just follow your instructions!" Lin Ran said with a smile.

In any case, this is something to look forward to. In the future, we will be able to learn about Mu Qiqin's situation from her "sister-in-law" and won't be like a blind person like we are now, knowing nothing at all.

Seeing Lin Ran smiling so happily, Wen Qianyi couldn't help but mutter, "I agreed to this, and you're not even going to offer anything in return? I help them refine medicine, and I not only get a deposit, but also a generous reward afterward. Sigh~"

After saying that, he glanced at Lin Ran, then lowered his head and wallowed in self-pity.

Since they had already given such a hint, Lin Ran knew what to do. He stepped forward, took Qianyi's hand, looked into her eyes that were so close to his, and said softly, "I would like to invite this beautiful lady to accompany me to Linghua Street, to savor the delicious food and experience the morning in Linghua City. What do you say?"

"That's not enough! I'm a greedy woman!" Wen Qianyi's pretty face flushed slightly as she turned her head anxiously, pretending to be calm as she spoke.

"Oh, just say the word, and I'll grant you every greedy wish you could ever have in your life!"

Fan Hua, who was standing to the side, was frozen in shock at the scene. She suddenly understood how Shangguan Mengqing had been deceived. She guessed that he had been tricked by this brat with his sweet words.

Although it's a lie, it somehow sounds quite pleasant.

When Wen Qianyi heard Lin Ran's words, her heart felt as sweet as if honey had been sprinkled all over the ground. She was so sweet that she didn't know how to respond. Although she had changed a lot, it was all just an act. If Lin Ran kept pestering her and saying nice things, even if they were fake, she would be willing to do it.

Some might say that doing this is really foolish and blind, but isn't love what makes people blind?

"Well, that's somewhat sincere, but I have one more condition: you have to accompany me to the alchemy department later, and then you have to cook all sorts of delicious food for me every day, and take me everywhere you go!" Wen Qianyi rattled off a series of conditions.

This made Lin Ran laugh, and she said, "You've really set a lot of conditions!"

"I don't care, you have to promise me, or I... I won't refine any pills for you!" Wen Qianyi said coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, I promise you everything!"

Lin Ran pulled Wen Qianyi out the door: "Let's go, let's go have breakfast now, or there won't be any fresh and hot food left!"

"Hey, wait for me! I want to eat too!"

Fan Hua was busy eating candy when she saw that the two had almost disappeared from sight. She quickly chased after them, wanting to try out what delicious treats were available in this new era.

5. My name is Lin Ran

Lin Ran has been very busy lately.

They were mainly busy suppressing bandits. The people in the Danger Triangle were harassing the Linghua Academy's territory too much. The guards in the area were completely ineffective. But every time the elders went to help, the people in the Danger Triangle had already withdrawn. It felt like punching thin air.

Moreover, the area under the influence of Linghua Academy, and even Linghua City itself, is in a state of decline. If this continues, Linghua Academy might as well close down.

Qiu Qingzi was overwhelmed with dealing with affairs. She tried to get help from other academies, but they ignored her. Songling Academy wanted to help but was powerless to do so, while Tianli Academy could help but was reluctant to, fearing that they might turn against her later.

After being turned away by those parties, Qiu Qingzi was furious.

So they gave Lin Ran an elite force, a team of elders at the Spirit Pill Realm plus Li Qiushui, who was at the Nirvana Realm, and equipped Lin Ran with plenty of pills. They were to stay outside and kill anyone they saw in the Danger Triangle until those people in the Danger Triangle dared not fight them anymore.

This practically means that Lin Ran has handed over most of Linghua Academy's assets. If she doesn't reap some rewards, Linghua Academy will likely fall behind.

Of course, because this task was very important, Qiu Qingzi also gave Lin Ran time to prepare.

During the preparation time, Lin Ran also quickly sent a letter to her son to let him know that she was safe. She also sent a letter to her maid Li Yuhan in the Li Dynasty of Liezhou, which contained mushy love words. Of course, the most important thing was to ask Li Yuhan to help find medicinal herbs.

Lin Ran himself felt that he was too awful. It took him so long to send a letter back, and he still had to ask others for help. He felt guilty about it.

Of course, such a thought flashed through his mind, and soon after, he picked up the Phoenix Bracelet and sent a "harassing message" to Shangguan Mengqing.

Now, Lin Ran's first words every day are "Good morning," and then he starts to act cheeky. After a period of testing, he starts saying some flirtatious things. You can't exactly come over and hit him through the "internet cable," can you?

At first, Shangguan Mengqing would coldly scold her a few times, but later it was just formulaic "hmm" and "okay" and the like.

Of course, Lin Ran would still share some interesting things she encountered. Although Shangguan Mengqing's replies were relatively bland, Shangguan Mengqing herself would also share her recent situation later.

This made Lin Ran feel that her "online romance" was quite successful, and she would win over this proud Sword Sect Fairy sooner or later!

……

Within the territory of Linghua Academy, there is a small town called Yingling. It is named Yingling because there is a spirit stone mine there with very high quality, which can produce many raw stones that are good enough to be polished into high-grade spirit stones.

It is also a relatively important source of income for Linghua Academy. The defense here is not weak, but recently, due to frequent attacks in other places, some of the defense forces here have been transferred away. At present, Yingling's defense is relatively weak. This news has been found out by some forces in the Danger Triangle.

Late at night, in the inconspicuous bushes far from Sakura Spirit City, if you look closely, you can see that there are people dressed in black lying prone in the bushes that are as tall as a person. There is not just one person, but a large group of people dressed in black who are squatting there.

Their gazes were all fixed on the brightly lit town of Sakura Spirit in the distance, and their eyes revealed a deep greed and a desire to kill.

The two leaders of the group were hiding above a dense forest. They were looking at the distant town of Cherry Blossom. The man on the left had an effeminate appearance, a thin frame, and sunken eyes. He looked like a drug addict.

His first words came out in a woman's voice as he addressed the woman beside him: "When are we going to make our move?"

The woman beside him, illuminated by the slivers of moonlight filtering through the trees, was strikingly beautiful, so much so that she seemed more like a man than a woman, yet her curvaceous figure clearly indicated her gender.

"Are you sure the message is correct?"

The woman's voice was very neutral, making it impossible to discern her gender.

Upon hearing the woman's words, the man couldn't help but scoff: "Ha, the infamous Hell Flower is nothing but a coward after all!"

The woman wasn't angry; she simply explained calmly, "Say what you will. I just feel that something's not right about Cherry Blossom City."

This was the intuition she had relied on for years telling her: something strange was going on here!

"Isn't this normal? It matches the information in the news, and the intelligence our spies gathered also matches our information."

"Those stupid women from Linghua Academy have redeployed a lot of the defenses here. Besides, although this place isn't far from Linghua City, it still takes time for someone at the Spirit Pill Realm or Nirvana Realm to get here. If we proceed according to plan, we can definitely take this prize. 'What, you Hellflower, trying to escape?' the effeminate man said sinisterly."

Hellflower shook her head and said, "Get ready. After it's done, we'll split the profits fifty-fifty!"

"No problem!" the effeminate man replied.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a strangely shaped whistle-like object, put it to his lips and blew it. A deep, buzzing sound echoed in the jungle, sounding like insects chirping in the jungle at night.

As the strange sound rang out, a large group of men in black, who had been lying in the bushes, began to sneak towards Sakura Spirit City, taking advantage of the moonlight being obscured by dark clouds.

The men in black, who had already planned their route, used the vegetation as cover to successfully avoid the sight of the patrols and the guards on the watchtowers, and infiltrated the city.

As the outer defense personnel passed by those dark alleyways, a dark figure would emerge from within and devour them.

Before long, the outer defenses of the entire Sakura Spirit Town were completely wiped out after the personnel on those watchtowers were taken down.

Upon witnessing this scene, the effeminate man couldn't help but tease the Hellflower beside him, saying, "Wasn't this easily resolved? Let's go, now let's unlock the treasure!"
