Wild Dogs

Yang Fan shook his head inwardly, feeling that these blood-path sects were short-sighted.

It's estimated that the Sky Patrol Pavilion will intervene in this matter soon.

At that time, the Great Liang Kingdom will not only have to return all the territory it swallowed from the Great Xia Kingdom, but it may also have to take a large piece of its own flesh.

The elders who took the lead might be severely punished.

Thinking of this, Yang Fan was secretly pleased, because this gave him a chance to escape.

Yang Fan secretly hoped that the Sky Patrol Pavilion would discover the commotion here soon.

"Why are you so happy too?"

Seeing a smile unconsciously creep onto Yang Fan's lips, Xue Wang was very satisfied.

Yang Fan's heart tightened. He was happy because he thought the Sky Patrol Pavilion might take action against the Blood Fiend Sect, but he didn't expect Xue Wang to have misunderstood.

"Yes, I was so happy when I thought about how great a victory our sect had won that I couldn't help but feel overjoyed."

"Good, kid. You're very loyal to the sect. The sect won't treat you badly. Don't worry."

"Once our Great Liang Kingdom achieves a great victory, I will recommend you to do some work in the Great Xia Kingdom, and you can marry ten or eight wives there in the future."

Yang Fan immediately put on a surprised expression and thanked Xue Wang repeatedly.

Xue Wang waved his hand.

"Alright, you can go now."

Then Xue Wang hummed a little tune with a smug look on his face.

Yang Fan quietly left the skinning cave, and after walking a distance away, he excitedly clenched his fist.

The opportunity has finally arrived; this is an incredible stroke of luck.

Don't be fooled by how smoothly the Great Liang Kingdom is fighting now; once the Sky Patrol Pavilion intervenes, the Great Liang Kingdom will have to surrender immediately.

Perhaps the Blood Fiend Sect elders will be dealt with by the Sky Patrol Pavilion.

In this way, his chance to survive would increase.

The more Yang Fan thought about it, the more excited he became. It seemed that he could change his plan.

But as soon as the thought popped into his head, Yang Fan immediately suppressed it.

He cannot place all his hopes on others.

Although if the Sky Patrol Pavilion were to take action, there was a high chance he could escape alive, he couldn't gamble that the Sky Patrol Pavilion would definitely make a move.

If the Sky Patrol Pavilion doesn't take action for one reason or another, or if Xue Ming attacks him beforehand, he'll be doomed if he doesn't prepare in advance.

We must keep the initiative in our own hands; relying solely on the Sky Patrol Pavilion will lead to serious problems.

With that thought in mind, Yang Fan obediently headed towards the nearby woods and returned to Xue Ming's cave first.

As usual, Yang Fan handed over some of the human skin and materials that he had secretly hidden.

Xue Ming was very satisfied with the human skin that Yang Fan handed over.

"Very good, continue to cultivate diligently these next few days."

As he spoke, Xue Ming tossed Yang Fan another bottle of pills, urging him to cultivate diligently.

"Yes, disciple understands."

After receiving the porcelain bottle, Yang Fan respectfully withdrew.

However, he did not return to his cave immediately, but went to the nearby woods to see how to refine a corpse puppet.

Upon reaching the woods, Yang Fan retrieved the King's Banner, placed the corpse on the ground, and began questioning Zhou Peng.

"Alright, we've got the corpse. Now, how do we refine it?"

Zhou Peng glanced at him.

"These alone are not enough; we also need a corpse refining furnace."

"What? You need a corpse refining furnace? Where am I supposed to get that for you?"

Yang Fan was a little anxious. He only had an alchemy furnace at hand, and he didn't have a corpse refining furnace at all.

"You don't need to rush this. When Xue Wang asks you to go to the market to buy things next time, you can just buy a corpse refining furnace there."

Zhou Peng said calmly.

Yang Fan had no choice but to nod.

"Alright, let's not talk about the corpse refining furnace for now. Tell me how to refine a corpse first."

"Even though we don't have a corpse-refining furnace right now, we can at least use ley line fire to process the corpse a little, right?"

"That would work."

Zhou Peng smiled and agreed, afraid of irritating Yang Fan. He then told Yang Fan how to dispose of the body.

"First, add various rare materials to this corpse. Before the corpse refining furnace arrives, pre-process this corpse."

Hearing Zhou Peng's words, Yang Fan nodded and immediately added various rare materials to the corpse.

Fortunately, this step was not too difficult. After the materials were added to the corpse, Yang Fan, under Zhou Peng's guidance, began to roast the corpse with the earth vein fire.

There is currently no corpse refining furnace, so it is impossible to directly refine corpse puppets.

However, it's still possible to dispose of the body beforehand.

Although Yang Fan had learned a lot about corpse refining and had personally witnessed Xue Ming refining corpse puppets, his grasp of the corpse refining method was not deep.

Doing things yourself is completely different from watching others do them.

Therefore, Zhou Peng patiently guided Yang Fan, telling him where to be careful and where to pay attention.

Under Zhou Peng's guidance, Yang Fan exerted a great deal of effort and finally managed to dispose of the corpse almost completely.

"Alright, the body has been mostly disposed of. You can bury it now."

"The treated corpses will not decay within ten years. Once you get your hands on the corpse refining furnace, you can safely refine corpse puppets."

Yang Fan nodded in agreement with Zhou Peng's words, and then carefully buried the body.

Then he packed his things and stroked his chin.

"Now that I have a pill-refining furnace, can you teach me how to refine Foundation Establishment Pills?"

Zhou Peng thought for a moment, somewhat surprised.

"There's no rush. You're only at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Why are you in such a hurry to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Yang Fan smiled.

"My spiritual root is not good. It is a five-elemental root, and not only a five-elemental root, but also a hidden spiritual root among the five-elemental roots, which is sometimes present and sometimes absent."

"If we don't refine more Foundation Establishment Pills in advance, it will be troublesome when we really need to establish our foundation."

"So let's start learning alchemy now."

Yang Fan urged anxiously.

Yang Fan had indeed refined quite a few pills in the alchemy room before, but those pills were no match for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Yang Fan hoped that Zhou Peng would guide him in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

"Alright, then I'll teach you how to refine Foundation Establishment Pills."

Thinking of this, Zhou Peng immediately instructed Yang Fan to bring out the alchemy furnace and various medicinal herbs.

After being processed by the small cauldron, all the medicinal herbs that were previously tainted with blood were now completely clean.

Zhou Peng was somewhat surprised.

"That's strange. Weren't all those medicinal herbs imbued with blood and vitality? How come they've suddenly disappeared?"

Yang Fan smiled.

"That's not important. The key is refining the pills. Tell me how to refine this Foundation Establishment Pill."

Although Yang Fan had the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill, he was not clear about the specific refining details, so he naturally needed Zhou Peng's guidance.

"Alright, first guide the earth vein fire to the alchemy furnace, and then I will teach you how to refine pills."

Yang Fan had no problem controlling the flames; he easily ignited the earth vein fire under the alchemy furnace.
