Chapter 441: The Plan to Poison the Young Beasts of the Beast Race

Xu Fan looked at the Daoist artifact alchemy furnace in the hands of the Moon Fox Beast King and suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

Killing a beast king so easily seemed a bit petty, making him appear small-minded.

Xu Fan decided to let it go for today. The Spirit Cut and Respected Elder Ling Xiu in the Daoist artifact palace also put away their artifacts.

“The Beast King’s gift is quite generous,” the iron-eating beast said, rubbing its small hands quickly, feeling a bit shy.

“This Daoist artifact alchemy furnace was something I stumbled upon. Giving it to you will put it to good use,” the Moon Fox Beast King said gently.

“I will remember the Beast King’s kindness in gifting me this alchemy furnace today,” the iron-eating beast said earnestly.

The status of alchemists in the Iron-eating Beast Clan seemed more useful than Xu Fan had imagined.

“Tian’er, later take your big brother to visit the Holy City of the Fox Clan,” the Moon Fox Beast King instructed.

“Got it, Dad.”

After a hearty meal, Xu Fan, led by the young fox, boarded the Moon Fox Beast King’s Bone Boat and flew toward the Holy City of the Fox Clan.

On the Bone Boat, the young fox seemed very friendly toward Xu Fan, drawn to a familiar scent that surrounded him.

It felt as if this iron-eating beast was even closer than his most cherished companions.

“Xingci’s scheme runs deep.”

“But this Moon Fox Beast King is truly unfortunate. When he discovers that the son he’s worked so hard to raise is…”

Xu Fan couldn’t bear to finish the thought.

“Big Brother Nèndié, do you know how to refine Moon Spirit Pills?” the young fox asked shyly.

“I don’t know how to refine Moon Spirit Pills, but I can refine Moonlight Pills.”

“If you have spiritual herbs, I can help you refine a batch,” Xu Fan said with a smile, thinking it was only right to offer some benefits since they’d be like family soon.

Upon hearing “Moonlight Pills,” the young fox’s eyes lit up with excitement.

Moonlight Pills were essentially an upgraded, luxurious version of Moon Spirit Pills.

They could enhance the mental strength of the beast race, making them irresistible to those with weaker physiques.

“Our clan happens to have some spiritual herbs in storage. Could Big Brother Nèndié help me refine a batch?” the young fox asked, his eyes shining.

“That’s thinking too small. Big Brother Nèndié will refine two batches for you.”

“We’re all family now; no need to be polite with me,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“Thank you, Big Brother!” the young fox exclaimed excitedly.

Before long, the Bone Boat arrived at the outskirts of the Holy City of the Fox Clan, and the young fox led the iron-eating beast down.

“Big Brother, this is the Holy City of the Fox Clan. You’ll need my guarantee to enter.”

“Of course, Big Brother can also reveal his identity as an alchemist to gain entry,” the young fox added.

“I’ll reveal my identity; I need to stay in the Holy City of the Fox Clan for a while,” Xu Fan said.

As he gazed at the Holy City of the Fox Clan, a plan began to form in Xu Fan’s mind.

At the entrance of the Holy City of the Fox Clan, a group of Core Formation stage beast race members stood guard, meticulously scanning every beast race member entering or leaving. Their inspections were so thorough that they even delved into the soul level.

“Why is the entry inspection so strict?” Xu Fan asked curiously.

“There are human race spies among the beast race, and several important secrets from major clans and even the Royal City have been stolen,” the young fox clan member replied with a serious expression.

“Humans are indeed relentless,” Xu Fan remarked.

Indeed, he was already at the entrance.

“But no matter how cunning the human race is, we beasts will unify the Human Realm,” the young fox said with determination in his eyes.

Xu Fan glanced subtly at the young fox, thinking to himself that he was indeed young; in a few hundred years, he would surely speak differently.

When it was Xu Fan and the young fox’s turn to enter the city, various consciousnesses and specialized demon artifacts scanned the iron-eating beast repeatedly. They quickly confirmed that the iron-eating beast was a genuine member of its clan.

The moment Xu Fan revealed his identity as an alchemist, he instantly felt a warmth in this harsh demon world. The expressions of everyone who learned that the iron-eating beast was an alchemist softened considerably.

Alchemists and artifact masters of the beast race were highly respected in the demon world and enjoyed certain protections. There was an unspoken rule: no matter how deep the hatred between the two races, they were not allowed to harm artifact masters and alchemists, along with their family beasts, during a conflict.

The Core Formation stage beast race members guarding the entrance of the Holy City of the Fox Clan respectfully invited Xu Fan into the city.

Before long, all the notable beast race members in the Holy City learned that an alchemist from the Iron-eating Beast Clan had arrived.

As soon as Xu Fan entered the Holy City of the Fox Clan, he was stopped by a stunning beauty with a long red tail.

The young fox was instantly alert, stepping in front of Xu Fan and staring warily at the beauty.

“Little Fox, move aside; your sister is no longer interested in you~”

The beautiful woman gazed seductively at the iron-eating beast behind the young fox.

Her captivating eyes made it hard for all the beast race members present to keep their composure.

Xu Fan looked at the beautiful woman, pretending to show a hint of charm in his eyes.

Seeing the iron-eating beast’s reaction, the red-tailed beauty smiled slightly, like a blooming flower.

With a touch of shyness, she looked at the iron-eating beast and asked, “What brings this esteemed iron-eating beast to the Holy City? Do you need my little sister’s help?”

“Little Sister knows everything about the Holy City and its surroundings!”

At that moment, the young fox nudged Xu Fan.

“Big brother Nèndié, don’t pay her any mind; she’s as dangerous as they come!” the young fox said fearfully.

“Going to the Holy City is fine with just my little brother here.”

After speaking, the iron-eating beast turned away and pulled the young fox into the city.

Three days later, in the bustling area of the Holy City, a new alchemy shop run by iron-eating beasts opened its doors.

In the backyard of the iron-eating beast’s Blacksmith Shop, Xu Fan chatted with the people from the Daoist artifact palace while refining pills.

“Grand Elder, you’re not seriously planning to make enough spirit stones in the Holy City of the Fox Clan to return to the human race with a giant beast race warship, are you?” Spirit Cut Elder asked in the Daoist artifact palace.

“Of course not. I just thought of some interesting things and plan to stay in this Holy City of the Fox Clan for a while,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

He had a plan in mind, which he called the Plan to Harm the Young Beasts of the Beast Race.

“Interesting things?”

“Grand Elder, you’re not thinking of refining poison pills to harm the beast race members in the Holy City, are you?!” Spirit Cut Elder exclaimed in shock.

“Do you take me for a fool?”

“Although this is part of the plan, it’s definitely not about direct harm,” Xu Fan rolled his eyes and replied.

At that moment, the pills in the Daoist Artifact Alchemy Furnace took shape, and Xu Fan used the pill-receiving technique he had derived to collect the refined pills into a jade bottle.

“Little Tian, your Moonlight Pills are ready.”

Xu Fan flicked his paw, and the bottle of freshly refined Moonlight Pills flew steadily from the back and landed on the counter in the front courtyard.

Behind the counter stood the young fox who was acting as the shopkeeper.
