Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

After hanging up the phone, Chen Huo wrote a list of medicinal herbs and sent it to Yuan Gang.

The elixir he refined was called the Nine-Turn Return to Emptiness Elixir.

Its effect is to increase lifespan.

This elixir is unlike any ordinary elixir for strengthening the body and prolonging life. It does not rely on brute force to nourish the body, but rather alters the trajectory of human lifespan, seals away vitality, and reverses the depletion caused by the years. It can be said to be a true divine elixir.

To refine this elixir, four main ingredients are required.

These are Taiyin Star Marrow Dew, Immortal Silkworm Molting Frost, Thousand-Year-Old Silent Water Lotus Seed, and Remnant Year Spirit Sand. Each of these four medicinal materials is a rare and precious ingredient rarely seen in the world.

Finding even one ingredient is extremely difficult.

The possibility of finding all four ingredients is almost nonexistent.

In fact, Chen Huo never even considered that he could actually refine this elixir.

The purpose was to lure Old Master Wu.

This pill can only increase lifespan by ten years, which may not seem like much, but for a dying person, it is an opportunity that they would absolutely have to seize at any cost. It is impossible for him not to be tempted.

Moreover, taking this pill increases lifespan without affecting strength.

The Wu family will also try their best to ensure that their patriarch lives for another ten years, so that he can remain in charge of the Wu family and ensure that they are not suppressed and swallowed up by other forces.

The message sent to Yuan Gang included a list of medicinal herbs, as well as the names and effects of the pills. After receiving the message, Yuan Gang sent back a message with three exclamation marks.

That was a really precise strike!

After I sent the message, the unknown number called again.

To make it easier for Yuan Gang to locate him, Chen Huo answered the phone this time.

"Chen Huo, how dare you hang up on me? Don't you want the Crimson Flame Sunflower anymore?!" The man on the other end of the phone was full of anger, and you could feel his teeth clenching even through the phone.

Chen Huo said calmly, "I am very dissatisfied with your attitude. I'm giving you a chance to rephrase your words. You'd better think it through before you speak."

"you……"

The man on the other end of the phone flew into a rage.

But after uttering just one word, he dared not continue.

Chen Huo heard him take a deep breath, clearly trying to control his emotions.

His tone softened considerably after that.

"Chen Huo, do you still want the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower?"

"think."

"So, will you agree to the conditions I've proposed?"

"No."

"How can I get the Crimson Heart Sunflower if I don't agree?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was noticeably louder, clearly suppressing anger.

Chen Huo sneered, "Do you think I would agree to such an unreasonable request? You've set a trap for me, who am I supposed to complain to? In the end, I won't get the Breakthrough Pill and I'll lose my life too."

Are you scared?

A sneer came from the other end of the phone.

Chen Huo said calmly, "Don't try to provoke me with such a low-level tactic. If you're not afraid, why don't you just deliver the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower to my door?"

"I don't trust you!"

"Then why should I trust you?"

Negotiations have stalled.

After a brief silence on the other end of the phone, the voice said, "What you're saying is impossible. Why don't you think of a solution that we can both accept? That would be better for everyone."

Chen Huo estimated that the time was almost up and Yuan Gang should have completed the positioning, so he lost patience to continue dealing with him and said indifferently, "You should think about it."

Without waiting for a reply, he hung up the phone.

……

Wu Family Back Mountain Villa.

Wu Jingchuan strode towards the innermost room, his expression somewhat agitated. He usually knocked lightly and whispered, but today he lost his composure, slamming the door and shouting inside.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, can I come in?"

"Come in."

An old and deep voice came from inside.

creak.

Wu Jingchuan pushed open the door and entered.

Sunlight streamed through the wooden door, illuminating the previously dim room. There were no lights on, almost no furniture, and a musty smell filled the air.

Wu Jingchuan strode inside, knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed to a faintly visible figure in the darkness of the room, his face beaming with joy as he said:

"Grandpa, great news! Do you remember that miracle doctor named Chen Huo? The young man who was known as the 'King of Hell's Miracle Doctor'!"

"What's wrong?"

"He is collecting medicinal herbs to prepare a pill called the Nine Revolutions Return to Emptiness Pill!" Wu Jingchuan said very quickly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying aura erupted from the depths of darkness, like a hurricane sweeping over him. Caught off guard, the middle-aged man was blown backward and fell to his back.

Then a gaunt, skull-like face emerged from the darkness, its eyes gleaming with a menacing light.

This person was none other than Wu Chengze's father, Wu Hao, the previous patriarch of the Wu family and the only remaining seventh-level Emperor Realm expert in the Wu family. He had not gone out for many years because his lifespan was coming to an end.

If he weren't still alive, the authorities would have wiped out the Wu family long ago.

Wu Hao asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it the Nine-Turn Return to Emptiness Pill that can increase lifespan by ten years?"

"That's right, it's this pill!"

Wu Jingchuan suppressed his fear, quickly scrambled to his feet, knelt properly, and bowed, reporting: "The authorities are currently doing everything in their power to find the medicinal ingredients to refine this pill. The entire ancient martial arts circle is in an uproar; it's said that many old monsters who have been in seclusion for many years have emerged!"

"Does the entire ancient martial arts community know about it now...?"

Wu Hao murmured something cryptically, his gaunt face slowly disappearing into the darkness, his voice turning icy cold:

"This news wasn't even reported by Wu Jingchuan and Wu Chengjiang. They really are my good sons, tsk tsk, such filial sons!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Jingchuan felt a chill in his heart and did not respond.

Wu Hao then asked, "Do you think that kid Chen Huo can refine the Nine-Turn Return to Emptiness Pill?"

Wu Jingchuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "I really don't know, but there's still some hope, isn't there? Grandpa, I want you to live another ten years in good health!"

"Good, very good, you really are my good grandson, hehe..."

After laughing a few times, Wu Hao changed the subject, saying, "Go and call Wu Chengze and Wu Chengjiang here. Tell them that their father, Wu Hao, misses them."

"Yes, Grandpa!"

Wu Jingchuan stood up, about to turn and leave, when Wu Hao suddenly asked, "You've been serving me for eight years now, haven't you?"

"Eight years and three months! Grandpa, why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Oh, it's nothing. You're only at the second level of the Emperor Realm right now. I sense that you're about to break through. You should hurry up and cultivate," Wu Hao said calmly.

Wu Jingchuan was a little confused, so he responded and turned to leave.

……

In the secluded villa where Wu and Yue resided, deep within a room.

Wu Chengze and Wu Chengjiang are arguing.

"We have to tell Dad about this. If he finds out we deliberately hid it, he'll definitely be angry. You know his temper; we'll be in big trouble!"

Wu Chengjiang said loudly.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengze firmly shook his head.

"There's no need! This must be Chen Huo's scheme. How could he possibly refine such a divine pill? He just wants to provoke the old man into moving so he can take the opportunity to harm him!"
