Xiao Li bowed to the Fire Cloud Ancestor once again.
"So your surname is Xiao~ According to the records in the valley, the creator of the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire was indeed named Xiao Xuan." Tang Zhen suddenly realized.
"I'm sorry, Valley Master Tang, for deceiving you for so long. I only used an alias for safety reasons. Please call me Wang Li when you're out in public," Xiao Li said to Tang Zhen with a smile.
"The Xiao clan declined a thousand years ago. I never expected to see members of the Xiao clan today. Do you have any evidence?" Old Ancestor Huoyun said slowly.
"Evidence? What evidence do you need? Even if I had evidence, I'm afraid even Ancestor wouldn't recognize it," Xiao Li said, arms crossed.
“That’s true. Our ancestor wasn’t from that era, so he doesn’t recognize your Xiao clan’s clan crest. Besides, could you please have that senior behind you come out for a moment? Our ancestor is feeling a bit uncomfortable being locked onto by his aura.”
At this moment, the Fire Cloud Ancestor looked at a spot behind Xiao Li and felt as if he were being watched by a colossal creature.
"Huh? Ancestor, you've arrived?" Xiao Li asked.
Swish!
Xiao Kong then appeared beside Xiao Li, looking at Huo Yun Lao Zu with an unfriendly expression.
“Youngsters, back then, our clan leader gifted the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations to your Burning Flame Valley, demonstrating the friendship between Clan Leader Xiao Xuan and Old Ghost Burning Flame. What? Now, the younger generation of my Xiao clan can no longer cultivate the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations?”
"When did the Three Profound Heavenly Flames become the trademark of your Burning Flame Valley?" Xiao Kong sneered.
The barrage of questions left Old Ancestor Fire Cloud at a loss for words.
"Since you are a descendant of the Xiao clan, there is no question that you cultivate the Three Transformations of Heavenly Fire. Cough cough, young friend Xiao Li, do you have any other requests?" Ancestor Huoyun immediately agreed. There was nothing he could do; the other party had two Dou Shengs, plus a Dou Sheng expert whose strength far surpassed his own. He really couldn't beat them.
Xiao Li smiled slightly: "This junior doesn't need any special techniques or fighting skills. My current techniques and fighting skills are sufficient. What I want to do is to form an alliance with Burning Flame Valley after healing Senior Huo Yun!"
Chapter 181 Alliance
"To form an alliance with my Burning Flame Valley?" Old Ancestor Fire Cloud asked in confusion.
“That’s right, it’s an alliance! An alliance initiated by my Xiao clan and Yin Valley. I wonder what Senior Huoyun thinks?” Xiao Li said with a smile.
Old Ancestor Huoyun leaned back in his stone chair and looked at Xiao Li: "Ahem, since it's an alliance, there has to be an enemy, and this enemy must be very strong, otherwise why form an alliance?"
Xiao Li nodded: "Naturally, it's the Soul Palace and other ancient imperial clans."
The corner of Huoyun Ancestor's mouth twitched: "You really know how to talk. I'm just a one-star Dou Sheng. You want me to fight the Soul Hall and the Imperial Clan? Are you kidding me?"
Xiao Li: "Relax, senior. It's not like I'm asking you to become a soldier. You don't need to charge into battle. Besides, if I heal you, can't you still improve?"
Once I break through to the Dou Sheng level, my alchemy skills will naturally advance to the ninth rank. With the assistance of the ninth-rank precious pills, will you still be afraid that my cultivation will not be able to catch up?
"Does the senior think he is inferior to those Battle Saints of the Imperial Clan?"
"You're talking nonsense! Do you think I'm the kind of coward who's afraid of trouble? Let's do it! But I have a condition!" Fire Cloud Ancestor has a fiery temper and can't stand being provoked by words.
Xiao Kong's gaze sharpened: "You still dare to have conditions?"
Xiao Li quickly grabbed Xiao Kong: "Ancestor, this is an alliance, an alliance, there's no need for this, please stop using your supernatural powers."
Fire Cloud Ancestor felt like he was about to lose half his life after being glared at by Xiao Kong.
After calming Xiao Kong down, Xiao Li asked with a smile, "What are your conditions, senior?"
After recovering, the Fire Cloud Ancestor said, "I want you to refine a Grade 9 precious pill for me in the future. Uh, if this one won't work, let's find another one."
I overheard you discussing a marriage alliance with Tang Zhen. I think Huo'er is a good match; how about arranging a marriage between her and your son?"
Xiao Li shook his head: "Refuse arranged marriages! Let them find their own way!"
"Well, then forget I said anything. As for the conditions, I haven't thought of them yet. Let's talk about them later, okay?" Old Ancestor Huoyun said, arms crossed.
"Alright! As long as it's within my capabilities. As for the alliance, seniors?" Xiao Li rubbed his hands together and asked.
"I agree! It's just the Soul Hall! Those old guys from the Soul Hall ambushed me back then, and all my injuries are thanks to them! I agree to take down the Soul Hall! Cough cough cough, cough cough cough cough!" Old Ancestor Huoyun said angrily, his emotions so agitated that he couldn't stop coughing.
“In that case, I will heal your injuries. I have prepared the medicine; please take it.” Xiao Li took out two jade bottles.
"Thank you very much." Ancestor Huoyun accepted the jade bottle, and after opening it, an amazing medicinal fragrance wafted out.
Old Ancestor Huoyun quickly put the bottle cap back on and then asked, "Young friend, besides my Burning Flame Valley, Sound Valley, and your Xiao Clan, are there any other forces that have joined the alliance?"
Xiao Li nodded: "Of course. I will go to the Flower Sect to heal Sect Master Hua Yu. At present, the Burning Flame Valley and the Flower Sect are my top priorities. As for the Pill Tower, I do not have the ability to do so yet."
Fire Cloud Ancestor strongly agreed with Xiao Li's statement: "Those old guys in the Pill Tower are all very eccentric, especially that Old Monster Lin, who is the most pedantic!"
The Heavenly Sound Elder suddenly asked, "Then Old Monster Lin has also become a Battle Saint?"
Fire Cloud Ancestor: "He's already done it, much earlier than me. He should be in the late stage of the One-Star Dou Sheng realm now, and I estimate that he can become the early stage of the Two-Star Dou Sheng realm after more than ten years of cultivation."
Furthermore, he is an alchemist himself, capable of refining ninth-grade precious pills. If he wished, he could completely squander the Pill Tower's collection to enhance his strength.
Xiao Li stroked his chin: "It probably won't work either. Since he is a ninth-grade pill refiner, he must deal with the Black Demon Lightning in order to successfully refine the pill. The power of the Black Demon Lightning should be beyond his ability to withstand."
Unless he gains a Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) to help him resist the Black Demon Lightning, he alone will not be able to successfully resist it after the pill is refined.
The Fire Cloud Ancestor suddenly realized: "This ancestor is not an alchemist, this ancestor does not know. Alright, this ancestor is going into seclusion. If you have anything to say, just tell Tang Zhen."
The figure of the Fire Cloud Ancestor vanished instantly, leaving Tang Zhen completely bewildered.
Today he saw three Dou Sheng experts in one go, one of whom was much stronger than his own ancestor.
“Valley Master Tang, our alliance needs to be conducted in secrecy. We’ll reveal our plans when the time is right. We don’t need too many people to know now, so as not to alert them,” Xiao Li said earnestly.
Tang Zhen nodded: "Understood. By the way, should I still call you Wang Li when we're out?"
"Correct."
. . . . . .
Hua Zong
The Flower Sect is located in the northwest region of Zhongzhou. Xiao Li and Elder Tianyin arrived at a continuous mountain range.
"Is this the address of the Flower Sect? How do I get in? This Hua Jin is really something, she called me here but didn't even come to pick me up." Xiao Li said, pouting.
The old man Tianyin suddenly spoke up: "Take a look at the letter she gave you and see if there are any tokens or anything like that."
Xiao Li opened the letter, and then something resembling a flower petal fell out.
Xiao Li took the petal in his hand and then infused it with his soul power.
"There's no reaction at all?"
After a few seconds,
Suddenly, a strange fluctuation emanated from the space in front of Xiao Li, and a huge spatial barrier appeared before him. Then, a crack appeared in the spatial barrier, and a person walked out. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Hua Jin herself.
Today, Hua Jin looked different. She wore a luxurious brocade robe embroidered with floral patterns, and her face was adorned with exquisite makeup. Her bright red lips added to her charm. It was clear that Hua Jin had put a lot of effort into her appearance.
"Master Wang Li, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting," Hua Jin said sweetly.
That sharp, grating sound gave Xiao Li goosebumps.
"Ahem, Hua Jin, lead the way. We have important business to attend to." Xiao Li coughed.
Meanwhile, the old man Tianyin looked at Xiao Li with amusement. The old man Tianyin naturally knew about Xiao Li's family situation, and he was present at the full moon celebrations of Xiao Li's three children.
Xiao Li's three wives were not submissive women. Yun Yun was not competitive and did not fight for anything, so Xiao Li at least had some say. After the Pei sisters married Xiao Li, his status in front of them was far too low.
Two sisters married you, and you don't even allow them to throw a tantrum? Especially since Pei Yuru often conspires with her sister to cause trouble for Xiao Li.
Of course, Pei Yuru was careful with her antics, only targeting Xiao Li. In Xiao Li's own words, this was called marital fun.
Elder Tianyin had never realized these two girls were so capable, able to manipulate Xiao Li. Elder Tianyin could naturally see what Hua Jin was up to, but the people in Xiao Li's family were not to be trifled with.
The flower brocade might not be able to squeeze in.
Hua Jin smiled and gave Xiao Li a charming wink: "Master Wang Li and this Senior Yin Gu, please follow me."
As soon as Xiao Li entered the spatial barrier, an exceptionally rich floral fragrance greeted him, and within this fragrance, there was also an extremely powerful energy of heaven and earth.
Looking out, Xiao Li saw an endless expanse of flower-covered mountains. These peaks were covered with brightly colored flowers, and from a distance, they looked like a sea of flowers. A gentle breeze stirred, and the beautiful petals danced in the sky, creating a scene that resembled a fairyland.
"It smells so good! This scenery is really beautiful, flowers everywhere, the fragrance of flowers, a hundred flowers. Hmm~ Not bad!"
Xiao Li commented, "As expected of a sect that specializes in accepting women, their style is truly unique."
"There must be an array in this sea of flowers." Xiao Li could clearly sense that there was extremely powerful energy hidden in this sea of flowers, and even the petal fragments floating in the sky had a specific and mysterious trajectory.
Hua Jin smiled gently: "This is the protective formation of my Flower Sect, called the Hundred Flowers Formation. But the specifics involve the secrets of my Flower Sect, and I cannot tell you. If you want to enter the Flower Sect, but you don't know how, you will only get lost in this sea of flowers. Without a guide, you will never be able to get out."
Chapter 182 Rescuing Hua Yu
"These are Bewitching Flowers, and there are so many? And this flower, when planted together with the Bewitching Flowers, can amplify their power. Your Flower Sect is quite something."
At the end of the sea of flowers, there is an extremely majestic mountain range, shrouded in mist and adorned with vibrant flowers. On the treacherous peaks, there are mostly buildings standing, and faintly, one can see some beautiful figures and hear the laughter of women.
In the center of the mountain range, a towering peak rises abruptly from the ground. The peak is extremely wide, with buildings standing on it. At the top of the peak is a huge plaza cut across the landscape. The plaza is made of bluestone, with petal patterns around it, and a strange fragrance lingers in the air.
"The scenery in Flower Sect is really nice, Elder Su. Should we renovate Sound Valley like this as well?" Xiao Li said with a grin.
“I think there’s no problem. This is my first time visiting the Flower Sect. Who is in charge of the Flower Sect now, that girl Hua Jin?” Elder Tianyin said slowly.
"Um, it's currently the junior who's in charge," Hua Jin said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.
Elder Tianyin coughed: "Ahem, besides that girl Hua Yu, who else is with her? Or rather, who are the Supreme Elders of the Hua Sect? Where are Qing girl, Hua girl, and that old woman Hua Tong?"
Hua Jin was immediately drenched in sweat. She hadn't expected that this old man would know so much about the Hua Sect's foundation.
"This junior does not know who the people you are referring to are. I only know that the sect leader has two senior sisters named Hua Qing and Hua Hua. They are known as the Qinghua Two Immortals and are the supreme elders of our sect," Hua Jin said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.
"No need for your introduction, they've already arrived." The old man Tianyin put his hands behind his back and saw two streams of light coming, one cyan and one yellow, both carrying extremely powerful auras.
Two streaks of light landed, revealing two graceful figures: one a beautiful woman in a light blue palace dress with a cold expression; the other a woman in a pale yellow dress with a gentle smile.
"Old ghost Tianyin, what are you doing at the Flower Sect? Hua Jin! Give me an explanation for why you brought a strange man into the sect!" The beautiful woman in green stared at Hua Jin, and with a wisp of aura emanating from her body, she pressed Hua Jin to the ground.
"Oh dear, big sister, don't be in such a hurry. Little Hua Jin must have her own reasons for bringing people in. Let me see. Oh, what a handsome young man! His soul power is so high at the level of an eight-star Dou Zun, and he also carries a strong medicinal fragrance. Tell me, are you an alchemist?"
The other woman in yellow has a much more unconventional personality, but don't be fooled by appearances; this seemingly kind woman in yellow is no simple character.
"Heh, you two little girls have become half-saints now? You haven't disgraced that old woman, but half-saints are not qualified to be arrogant in front of me!"
The old man Tianyin grinned, then unleashed a Dou Sheng-level aura that caused the two beautiful women to take several steps back.
"Battle Saint! Old Ghost, you've actually become a Battle Saint!" the beautiful woman in green exclaimed in shock.
"Hehe, just lucky. This time, the protagonist isn't me, but him." The Heavenly Sound Elder pushed Xiao Li forward.
"you?"
Xiao Li stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting to the two beautiful women, and said, "Junior Wang Li greets Fairy Qing and Fairy Hua."
"Wang Li?" The two immortals of Qinghua had been in seclusion for a long time and did not care about worldly affairs, so they did not know Xiao Li.
Qingxianzi glanced at Huajin, and Huajin immediately ran over to explain to Qinghua and the other two immortals.
"So that's how it is. You were invited by Hua Jin to rescue Hua Yu, right?" Qing Xianzi finally understood what had happened and realized that the young man in front of her possessed a physique no less than Yao Chen's.
Qingxianzi vaguely saw the shadow of Yaochen in Xiao Li. Yaochen was just like that back then, except that Yaochen was more handsome and charming than Xiao Li when he was young.
A hint of reminiscence flashed in Qingxianzi's eyes before she looked at Xiao Li and said, "Since you've come to heal Huayu, then come with me."
Qingxianzi turned around and then scanned with her soul power. Finally, she sensed Huayu's aura in a secluded place within the Flower Sect, but Huayu was very weak at the time.
Qingxianzi led the way and they soon found a thatched hut. As soon as they pushed the door open and entered, they were met with an extremely powerful attack.
Qingxianzi was the first to block the attack: "Huayu, what are you doing!"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, in the dimly lit thatched hut, an old woman dressed in hunched clothes and paralyzed in the legs, sitting on a wooden chair, slowly raised her head, and her hoarse, aged voice came through.
"Is that Senior Sister Qing?"
"Hua Yu!"
"Xiaoyu!"
The two immortals of Qinghua were shocked. They never expected that their lovely junior sister would turn out like this!
"And there's Senior Sister Hua too." Hua Yu's tense nerves relaxed at this moment, and then she fell into a deep sleep.
"Heavens! Her leg meridians are completely severed and she's been poisoned. Not only that, but her very essence has been damaged. Otherwise, how could she look so old!" Qingxianzi exclaimed angrily.
"Let me take a look," Xiao Li said, stepping forward.
Fairy Hua then made way for Xiao Li, who took Hua Yu's pulse and examined her carefully.
"Tsk, this injury is so serious. If it had been a few years later, I'm afraid I would have been powerless to help. This is not something that can be cured by a single pill, unless the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill can reach the level of the Nine-Colored Pill Lightning."
But Sect Leader Hua's current physical condition may not be able to absorb the medicinal power of the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill.
