Chapter 1062
byYang Kai really didn’t know how to refine the Pill Cloud.
When refining the last Li Huo Dan, he had no distracting thoughts, no pressure at all, and firmly believed that he could succeed for no reason.
When the pill was formed, Yang Kai clearly felt that a lot of his vitality had been stripped away, which was why he was so weak now.
If it weren’t for Yang Kai’s possession of the Demon God Golden Blood and his extremely vigorous vitality just that last stripping could have killed him on the spot.
That Li Huo Dan was not a pill at all. It was a human life！
That’s why it is now full of vitality and energy, amazing even Zong Ao.
Although he succeeded once, if Yang Kai were to refine it again, he definitely couldn’t refine it, because now he no longer has the same indomitable spirit and that feeling as before.
After explaining his thoughts clearly to Zong Ao, the old man finally caught his breath. The old man comforted his wounded heart by making up a set of theories about artistic conception, saying that Yang Kai was able to refine the Pill Cloud entirely because of the artistic conception.
After studying alchemy for hundreds of years, he was not as good as a young man under thirty. Zong Ao felt that his life was simply in vain and was extremely ashamed and angry.
Fortunately, he couldn’t die for the time being and still had a lot of time to continue studying.
At the palace of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce branch, Yang Kai moved Xue Yue here and gave the newly refined Lihuo Pill to Xue Yue to take. After her vitality stabilized, he walked out of the room.
After turning a few corners, he saw Harika, Lin Mufeng and others surrounding Zong Ao, with flattery like a tide. Their faces were full of flattering and obsequious expressions. They kept complimenting Old Master Zong for being old but strong, still vigorous in old age, and having superb alchemy skills. Even something like the Pill Cloud could be refined as soon as he said so, and he was respected by others.
Even the other few top Void King-level alchemists in the star field couldn’t do this. They were just one level higher than Zong Ao in terms of the alchemist’s level. They were completely a group of people who fished for fame and had no real skills at all. How could they compare to Old Master Zong even in ten thousandth？
Zong Ao’s old face turned red, and he endured the destruction of their flattery impatiently. He had the intention to drive people away but didn’t have much confidence, and it was extremely hard to endure.
Harika and Lin Mufeng and these idiots don’t have any sense of sight. They thought he was enjoying it and complimented him even more severely against their conscience, making the old man’s face even uglier.
It was not until Yang Kai walked out easily that this group of people stopped flattering. They all looked at him with strange eyes. Even Harika quietly gave Yang Kai a thumbs up, with an expression of admiration on his face, and then left arm in arm with Lin Mufeng and others.
The backs of the two people had a rather sneaky look.
Yang Kai came to Zong Ao with a confused face, not knowing what their eyes looking at him really meant.
Lad, you gave such a great benefit to this old man? Being able to refine Pill Clouds and also make Pill Marks form with a stable probability of thirty to forty percent. Just with this skill alone, you can become a guest of honor of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce. No one would dare to provoke you. You could have your own territory, servants, and beautiful maids. You could enjoy the highest standard of treatment. The things that others have pursued for a lifetime are within your easy reach. With the capital of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, it wouldn’t be difficult to cultivate your growth. You could obtain the greatest return in the shortest time. This old man can’t figure out why you didn’t tell them that the Li Huo Pill was refined by you. Instead, you let this old man stand up and take the blame for you, giving this credit and reputation to this old man! Zong Ao said slowly, picked up a cup of tea, and took a sip.
Halika, Lin Mufeng and the others all thought that the Fire Departure Pill with Pill Cloud was refined by Zong Ao, because that’s what Yang Kai said at the beginning. Up to now, Zong Ao has not gone to refute it, making them even more convinced.
So they complimented Zong Ao like that.
Yang Kai sat down beside him, picked up the tea and poured himself a cup, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a smile, “Old Zong, don’t play dumb when you know clearly. Everyone understands the truth that a tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. I’m not even thirty years old. Although I have some small tricks, my cultivation level is still too low. I can’t bear such a great benefit and reputation. Only you, Old Zong, with your high moral standing and the reputation of a generation of alchemy masters, can hold your ground. Do you believe that if you and I both took a Fire Departure Pill with Pill Marks to find President Aio at the same time, the treatment we would receive would be completely different? You would only be more and more respected, and President Aio would treat you with more courtesy. Maybe when he’s in a good mood, he’ll reward you with a medicine planet and make you the master of that medicine planet. But he would arrest me, arrange all kinds of powerhouses to protect my safety, and not allow me to leave the territory for a step. He would only let me deal with medicinal materials every day. Maybe when I’m having sex with a beauty and enjoying the pleasure, there will be people outside staring wide-eyed and spying…”
“Hahaha！” Hearing Yang Kai’s words, Zong Ao couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Imagining that comical scene, he laughed heartily and kept nodding, saying, “You’re so slick, you’re really not a good thing！ I really don’t know how many hardships you’ve gone through to develop these little thoughts.”
“Without these thoughts, I would have died long ago！” Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders.
“You’re right. The tree that stands out is easily broken by the wind！ I’ll take on these benefits and the reputation for you. Anyway, my alchemy skills have indeed improved a great deal, so I deserve it！”
Yang Kai’s eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up to congratulate, “Congratulations, Elder Zong. I’ve been busy with the Li Huo Dan these days and didn’t even notice that Elder Zong has made further progress on the path of alchemy. I’m really damn it!
After saying that, he sat down again and worried, “However, Elder Zong, with this, I’m afraid you have no choice but to join the Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce. Before, they would indulge you and let you do as you please. Now, I’m afraid it won’t work. If I’m not mistaken Hali Ka and Lin Mufeng and the others have already reported the matter here to Shuiyue Star. It won’t be long before people from the Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce come.”
“I know.” Zong Ao nodded. “I’ve also been living a carefree life on Yupu Star for a hundred years. As long as they don’t interfere with my alchemy, everything is negotiable. Whether to join or not is just a nominal matter. If they piss me off, can’t I just leave？”
Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel a bit of guilt in his heart. Zong Ao was not a good person. Not only was his temper strange, but he was also highly self-regarding. Yang Kai also knew that he had repeatedly tried to kill him in the past.
But no matter what, this time he was taking the blame. Although it would make his reputation even greater, this was not what Zong Ao wanted. Truly capable people don’t care about reputation. Only those who pursue power and wealth will go all out to climb up.
This time it was himself who dragged Zong Ao down and made him lose a lot of freedom. He probably didn’t have any complaints because Yang Kai had taught him the method of alchemy.
Both Yang Kai and Zong Ao were well aware of these things.
“How is that girl？” Zong Ao didn’t want to say more and changed the topic.
“The poison of the Mysterious Yin Sunflower Water should have been relieved. Her vitality is stable, but she is still in a coma. To wake her up, only by finding her soul spirit body.” Yang Kai frowned. He had just probed in Xue Yue’s sea of consciousness again, but didn’t find the trace of the soul spirit body. He really didn’t know where Xue Yue’s soul spirit body was hidden.
Zong Ao also frowned and said unhurriedly： “Logically speaking, it is impossible for this situation to occur when she was injured by the Mysterious Yin Sunflower Water… There must be some other reason why her soul spirit body is missing.”
Yang Kai’s spirit was shaken： “Please enlighten me, Zong Ao.”
Zong Ao shook his head. “I don’t know anything about that girl. How could I have anything to teach you? Since you are her bodyguard, you should understand. Does she have any regrets in her heart? Many times, a person’s coma doesn’t mean she is injured, but that she can’t get over the hurdle in her heart. As long as she gets over that hurdle, she will naturally wake up.”
Yang Kai listened to these words and showed a thoughtful look on his face. After a while, his eyes became bright, as if he had thought of something.
Zong Ao observed his expression and nodded slightly.
This kid is a human spirit and has great ability. Zong Ao really couldn’t figure out why such a person would be someone else’s bodyguard.
After a long time, Yang Kai suddenly became relaxed.
“Found the reason？” Zong Ao asked with a smile.
“There is some clue. Whether it is or not, it needs to be verified.” Yang Kai laughed. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, “By the way, Elder Zong, when I came here just now, why did Halika and the others look at me with that kind of eyes? Did something happen?”
“Want to know？” Zong Ao gave him a sideways glance.
Yang Kai nodded.
“I just told them that you are deeply in love with that girl. When feeding her medicine, you even chewed it up and fed it to her mouth to mouth.” Zong Ao winked, looking as wretched as possible.
Yang Kai was furious. “How could you have the nerve to publicize such a thing？ Do you have any integrity？”
Zong Ao snorted： “I carried such a big burden for you. I lost and gave away so many good things to you. Do you think this is over？ Just wait for the Third Young Master of Xueyue to come to Yupu Star and skin you alive and pick your bones. Hahaha, a little bodyguard actually dares to have ideas about the woman of Xueyue. He really doesn’t know how to live or die. If I were you, it would be the right way to leave early！”
While laughing, he left happily.
Damned old man！
Yang Kai looked at Zong Ao hatefully. He immediately understood why Hali Ka and Lin Mufeng and others looked at him so strangely. The little bit of guilt he had left for him disappeared completely. He regretted not betting more at the beginning. He should have snatched all his Xuanyin Kuishui and medicine cauldrons. That would be the real thing.
Sure enough, there is not a single good thing among the old guys！
It is the same with Ghost Ancestor and it is also the same with Zong Ao！
However, Zong Ao probably never thought that the woman in his mouth, the Snow Lord in Hali Ka’s mouth, was actually Xueyue herself！
Kissing the woman of Xueyue is nothing. I have touched and seen the whole body of Xueyue！
