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

Wen Bixuan, who was diligently cultivating in the back mountain, suddenly appeared in the sky. She looked at the dark clouds in the distance, and within those rolling black clouds, silver snakes were rolling and roaring.

Looking at this strange phenomenon, a hint of doubt flashed in her deep eyes. She murmured softly, "How could such a thunderstorm occur in this place?"

The next moment, Wen Bixuan appeared in Qiu Qingzi's office. Looking at Qiu Qingzi standing by the bed and gazing into the distance, she coldly asked, "Where did Qianyi go?"

"Ouch, I..."

Hearing this shout, Qiu Qingzi turned around and leaned against the wall, looking at Wen Bixuan who had appeared in the office like a ghost. She touched her chest and said breathlessly, "Wen Bixuan, could you please not appear in my office so suddenly next time? It's scary!"

When Qiu Qingzi heard that shout, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

Wen Bixuan glanced at Qiu Qingzi and continued, "Where did Qianyi go?"

"Qianyi?"

Qiu Qingzi was taken aback. She lowered her head and thought for a moment before saying, "It seems that she and Lin Ran were going to refine some kind of pill. After telling them, they went to the deep mountains to refine it? What, were they the ones who caused that strange phenomenon?"

Qiu Qingzi suddenly thought of a somewhat frightening question: Could this thunderstorm be caused by pill lightning? Only seventh-grade pills could cause pill lightning, right?

Wow, could this girl have actually managed to concoct a seventh-tier pill?

"These two people are really ignorant. Just because they're ignorant doesn't mean you should be too!" Wen Bixuan said coldly.

You could tell that there was some anger in her words.

Qiu Qingzi understood Wen Bixuan and knew that Wen Bixuan was truly angry this time. Not communicating with Wen Bixuan about the important matter of refining seventh-grade pills, which had a chance of triggering pill lightning, could lead to a tragic outcome of pill destruction and death. Their academy's rising alchemy master would be cut short.

"I immediately summoned all the elders of the academy, and then..."

Before Qiu Qingzi could finish speaking, she was immediately questioned by Wen Bixuan: "What will happen to the inner courtyard if you take a group of elders there?"

"Activate the protective formation and stay here obediently. I'm going to find them!" After saying that, Wen Bixuan transformed into a streak of light and rushed into the back mountain of the academy.

After watching Wen Bixuan leave, Qiu Qingzi shook her head helplessly and muttered, "What a life of toil I have!"

After making a remark, Qiu Qingzi picked up the academy token and notified the academy's elders to be on high alert.

Wen Bixuan returned to the back mountain of the academy once again. She stared at the roaring thunderclouds, and the power of the thunder emanating from them made even her, a fifth-level Dragon Transformation Realm cultivator, feel terrified.

"What level of pill is this girl refining? How could it directly trigger pill lightning!" Wen Bixuan wondered to herself.

She had also experienced the world and knew that once a high-grade pill was produced, its extremely powerful medicinal force would cause the heavens and earth to tremble, and then attract pill lightning. She had seen seventh-level alchemists refine pills before, but those alchemists only caused dark clouds to appear, and those clouds roared a few times before dissipating.

Unlike now, the dark clouds in the sky roared, and a series of astonishing booms exploded in the sky. The dark clouds covered almost half of the sky.

Can her sister and Lin Ran really withstand this level of Dan Lei?

Wen Bixuan gritted her teeth and rushed to the center of the thunderstorm, shouting repeatedly, "Lin Ran, Qian Yi, get out of here! It doesn't matter if the pills are gone, just don't let anyone get hurt!"

Unfortunately, Wen Bixuan's voice echoed, but she received no response. She searched with all her soul power, but still couldn't find where those two were.

Wen Bixuan was getting increasingly annoyed. Seeing the thunderclouds in the sky roaring more and more fiercely, she feared that if she stayed any longer, the power of this thunderbolt would only increase.

In the end, Wen Bixuan decided to leave, but she was still not giving up and continued to shout towards that area, but the result was still the same.

The dark, billowing clouds were churning when suddenly a silver light, as thick as an arm, burst forth from them, its dazzling brilliance illuminating the entire world.

Then came an explosion-like sound that bombarded the area, leaving everyone with a buzzing sound in their ears.

"Such powerful lightning!"

Wen Bixuan frowned as she pondered. If they couldn't hold on any longer, she would take over the defense against the thunderbolts and prevent her sister from getting hurt!

At this moment, the entire Linghua Academy was alarmed. Everyone was staring at the dark, heavy clouds overhead and listening to the thunderous roar. They were all wondering what was happening. As a result, the academy's elders sent them back to their dormitories and told them to stay quietly and not to come out.

Because Danlei is relatively close to the inner courtyard of the academy, Qiu Qingzi even activated the protective array of the inner courtyard, which would consume an unknown number of spirit stones.

Just as everyone was on high alert, Lin Ran was also in a panic inside the Liusu Palace. He could see the scene outside through the Liusu Palace, and when he saw the rolling black clouds and lightning snakes, Lin Ran was terrified.

Lin Ran pulled Fan Hua along and asked again, "Fan Hua, is this really okay?"

"I've already said there's no problem. This is the thirty-second time you've asked. Give me more spirit stones, and I'll activate the array that shields the heavens to its maximum to ensure your safety!" Fan Hua complained.

Even Wen Qianyi, who had already finished refining the pills, took a break and said with a smile, "Senior, just trust Sister Fanhua. I can feel that the energy fluctuations leaking from the Ghostly Vengeance Pill have been blocked by this palace, and the connection with the pill lightning outside has been weakened a lot!"

"We still can't be careless!" Lin Ran said worriedly.

In such a tense situation, time seemed to pass more and more slowly, so slowly that Lin Ran found it torturous.

Everyone was watching the dark clouds in the sky, but unexpectedly, the powerful thunderbolt only unleashed a few terrifying bolts of lightning, scorching several patches of forest, before slowly dissipating. This bizarre sight shocked Wen Bixuan, who had been on high alert.

Perhaps this Danlei phenomenon will be listed as one of the ten major problems of Linghua Academy.

……

78. Replace Mu Shi's dual-drive fire poison

There will be no shortage of people to explore difficult problems. Wen Bixuan is also a persistent person who must find the answer. She found Lin Ran and Wen Qianyi chatting and laughing in the deep mountains and forests, and carried the two of them to her bamboo house like piglets.

Immediately afterwards, a memorable scene unfolded: Wen Qianyi was kneeling, Lin Ran was standing to the side, and Wen Qianyi was sitting opposite the two of them, looking at them with eyes that could kill, making the two of them break out in a cold sweat.

Wen Qianyi quietly raised her head to look at Lin Ran, signaling with her eyes, "Senior, please save me! I was arrested while trying to help you!"

Lin Ran understood Wen Qianyi's gaze, and he was also helpless: "Qianyi, do you know the strength of the senior? He's only at the peak of the Nirvana Realm. How can he challenge your sister, who is at the Dragon Transformation Realm, let alone her own boss!"

"bump!"

Wen Bixuan slammed her hand on the table, knocking over the teacup which rolled across the surface before hitting the teapot and coming to a stop. Then, a cold, angry shout rang out: "What are you two doing, exchanging glances? You still won't answer what I asked you? Do you know how much trouble you've caused this time?"

Seeing this, Lin Ran forced herself to explain, "Dean, the problem this time is mine. I didn't consider things carefully enough. I believe I made the following mistakes, firstly..."

A long speech poured out of Lin Ran's mouth like beans, and she used very literary language. Her attitude of admitting her mistake was sincere, but there was a feeling that she knew she was wrong and admitted her mistake, but she would do it again next time!

"Stop!"

Wen Bixuan couldn't stand such perfunctory words any longer. She asked directly, "Lin Ran, I don't want to hear these roundabout words. I need a clear answer from you. Why didn't you inform the academy about the Dan Lei incident? And why did you take our academy's highest-level alchemist to do such a dangerous thing without authorization? I can take this as an attempt to frame our academy's senior talents!"

Lin Ran: "..."

Sister-in-law, you've really mastered this trick. You've just put such a huge hat on him; how can he possibly handle that?

Hearing Wen Bixuan's aggressive tone, Wen Qianyi became anxious. She straightened her back, her head held high like a stubborn swan, and looked at her sister bravely, saying, "Sister, the problem this time is all my fault. I was careless and failed to report to the academy. I also misjudged the dangers of refining seventh-grade pills. Please punish me, sister!"

Wen Bixuan: "..."

You two are quite something, singing in unison like a married couple. And this is still before she's married; if she were, she wouldn't even respect her as her older sister!

Wen Bixuan angrily waved her sleeve: "Both of you get out of here, and remember to come back in a few days with a confession of several thousand words and read it to me. Oh, and don't let anyone know about this, including the fact that you became a seventh-level alchemist!"

"Yes!"

Lin Ran and Wen Qianyi felt as if they had been granted a pardon. Hand in hand, they fled this "devil's den." They ran for several kilometers before finally resting against a big tree, panting heavily, near the entrance to the inner courtyard's back mountain.

Lin Ran, panting heavily, said, "Qianyi, your sister is still as... domineering as ever!"

Wen Qianyi waved her little hand enthusiastically and looked at Lin Ran, saying coquettishly, "You stinky senior, it's all because of you! I won't help you refine seventh-grade pills next time. That pill lightning was so scary today!"

"Hey, I didn't know either!"

In fact, Lin Ran was also frightened by the pill lightning attracted by the Ghostly Vengeance Pill. He had seen a seventh-level alchemist refine pills when he went to train before. Although he only saw it from afar, it was not as terrifying as the thunderclouds today. Fortunately, the Flourishing Tassel Palace was powerful enough!

"Hmph, now you realize how powerful I am!" Fan Hua also snorted arrogantly, clearly resentful that Lin Ran had always looked down on her.

Lin Ran stroked her spatial ring excitedly and said, "Let's not talk about that now, let's go and test how effective this pill is!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Qianyi snapped out of her panic and hurriedly shook her head, shouting, "Absolutely not! She's in good condition. If we seal away the power within her, she'll be in serious trouble from the backlash of the fire poison!"

"So, is the only option now to start eliminating the fire poison?" Lin Ran asked unwillingly.

"That's the only way!" Wen Qianyi said firmly.

Lin Ran couldn't help but spit to the side, annoyed, "What a troublesome girl!"

"Alright, alright, let's go back and rest first. We'll start sealing it once the fire poison has been mostly cleared!" Wen Qianyi comforted her softly. She pulled Lin Ran down the mountain, sharing her alchemy experiences with her as they walked.

Starting today, Wen Qianyi is also a seventh-level alchemist!

……

Not long after Lin Ran and the other person left, Wen Bixuan's bamboo house welcomed another guest. Of course, it was easy to guess that it was Qiu Qingzi, dressed in a glamorous outfit.

Qiu Qingzi cautiously entered and saw Wen Bixuan standing by the window gazing at the scenery outside. She tentatively asked, "Where are Lin Ran and Qianyi?"

"I sent those two bastards back!"

Wen Bixuan turned her gaze away from the window, tidied up the teacups on the table, poured Qiu Qingzi a cup of tea, and continued, "Remember to cover up this Danlei incident later. Even if you can't cover it up, you should still claim it was a weather problem."

"Would anyone believe this?" Qiu Qingzi asked hesitantly.

Wen Bixuan shook her head and said, "I will believe it. We are not a place that the forces of Jiezhou are focusing on. The fact that Qianyi has become a seventh-level alchemist needs to be kept secret for a while. The current situation of Linghua Academy is not suitable for it to show off!"

Although Wen Bixuan didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the academy, it didn't mean she was completely indifferent. She understood very well that Linghua Academy was only suitable to secretly strengthen its power at the moment. Once it was brought into the open, it would face too many overt and covert attacks.

The fact that the forces from the dangerous triangle area frequently came to plunder was a problem. If Lin Ran hadn't led the team to massacre them, and even boldly invaded the dangerous triangle area to slaughter their home base, the territory of Linghua Academy would probably not be so peaceful.

"Did that girl really become a seventh-level alchemist?" Qiu Qingzi's eyes widened in surprise when she heard Wen Bixuan's words.

That's a seventh-level alchemist! There wasn't one in the entire Jiezhou before the deadline, and suddenly he appeared at their Linghua Academy? This isn't just a windfall, it's like gold nuggets falling from the sky!

"should be!"

Wen Bixuan nodded and said, "Such a powerful pill lightning probably isn't a simple seventh-grade pill. Although I didn't ask further, it seems that Lin Ran must have found the medicinal herbs for Wen Qianyi to refine!"

"That guy, after Qianyi followed him... well, her strength has increased a lot..." As Qiu Qingzi said this, her eyes frequently glanced at Wen Bixuan's micro-expressions, afraid of saying something wrong.

"There's no need to be so cautious with your words!"

Qiu Qingzi's little actions had long been noticed by Wen Bixuan. She picked up her tea, took a sip, looked out the window, sighed, and said, "Qianyi has indeed changed a lot since she met Lin Ran. So much so that I almost don't recognize her anymore. Or perhaps this is the real Qianyi!"

Qiu Qingzi didn't dare to say much, but she shared the same opinion as Wen Bixuan. They had both watched Qianyi grow up. After meeting Lin Ran, Qianyi became more mature and reliable. She had to thank Lin Ran for that. Could love really make people grow?

This is perhaps a question worth pondering!

……

After resting for a while, Wen Qianyi got busy again. She transported all the cold-natured medicinal herbs she had prepared to Lin Ran's house and placed them in an empty room.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Shishuang was brought over, her clothes were undressed, and she was thrown into the large wooden tub.

This procedure had already been done once before when participating in the Mirror Moon Holy Emperor Secret Realm in Jiezhou. However, there was a slight difference this time: Wen Qianyi no longer cared that Lin Ran had seen Mu Shishuang naked. Rather than trying to cover it up, she might as well be open about it. Besides, was she really inferior to such a "black-faced" person?

As before, Wen Qianyi fed Mu Shishuang a pill. After Mu Shishuang's body was covered in frost, Wen Qianyi used the blue-red heavenly fire to accelerate the medicinal liquid. By using the extreme method of alternating hot and cold, Mu Shishuang's pores kept gushing out dark red, foul-smelling liquid.
