Embracing One on Each Side

"The Pill Lightning from Grade 8 Pill is indeed terrifying. Even some Dou Zun Expert couldn't withstand such power..."

Seeing the slowly dissipating Pill Lightning, Venerable Tian Huo secretly clicked his tongue in amazement. This level of pill was indeed not something that ordinary people could refine. Even in the two years he had been in the Pill Tower, he had never seen a five-colored pill appear.

Seeing the Pill Lightning dissipate, Xiao Ming waved his hand and put the Heaven Demon Puppet into his Na Ring. With a flick of his finger, the lid of the cauldron opened automatically, and a streak of light shot out like lightning. Just as it was about to escape, Xiao Ming grabbed it with his hand, and an invisible force bound it tightly. Finally, he pulled it into his palm, stuffed it into the Jade Bottle, and then looked around.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Ming frowned slightly. He sensed a number of hidden Aura around him. The emergence of Grade 8 Pill had a far-reaching impact, and it seemed that these people had been attracted by the large-scale commotion caused by the appearance of the Grade 8 Pill.

After these people arrived, they hid in the shadows, and it's hard to say they weren't harboring any covetous intentions.

At this moment, Venerable Tian Huo, Xiao Yi Xian, and Medusa walked over. Seeing Xiao Ming's slightly furrowed brows, they thought for a moment and understood the reason.

"Snort!"

Venerable Tian Huo snorted coldly, and an invisible wave spread from him, causing muffled sounds to echo from the dark forest.

Given the strength of Venerable Tian Huo and the others, he certainly wouldn't have been unable to detect these people; it's just that their cultivation levels posed no real threat to them, so he didn't pay them any mind.

These people were merely hiding in the shadows, and they had certainly been warned by Venerable Tian Huo and others.

"Forget it, let's go. They're just a few little mice."

After saying that, Xiao Ming lightly stomped on the Dragon Claw Red Eagle under his feet. Upon receiving the instruction, the eagle suddenly flapped its wings, stirring up gusts of wind, and then soared into the blue sky.

Above the blue sky, Xiao Ming had already put the matter of what had just happened out of his mind. At this moment, he handed the Chaos Heaven Pill that he had just refined to Medusa.

Medusa took the pill from Xiao Ming's hand. At first, she was extremely happy, but then she showed a little worry.

"This Chaos Heaven Pill is Eighth Grade Five-Colored Pill. Isn't its grade too high?"

The medicinal power of Grade 8 Pill is definitely not weak. She was afraid that the child in her womb would not be able to handle the medicinal power, which was why she had Xiao Ming refine Grade Seven Medicinal Pill before.

"Don't worry, although the Chaos Heaven Pill is said to be Grade 8 Pill, its effects are extremely mild and will not harm the fetus. Moreover, the medicinal power within it remains in your body and slowly transfers to the fetus. During this process, not only will the fetus's constitution improve, but you will also benefit."

Xiao Ming smiled slightly. As Alchemist Grandmaster, he was naturally aware that even low-level Alchemist would consider the impact of medicinal properties on the human body, so it was impossible for him not to.

In fact, the Chaos Heaven Pill in front of her is just the prelude to the Foundation Building stage. Once the other prepared pills are refined, the fetus in Medusa's womb will surely reach the level of Perfect Foundation Building.

Seeing how thoughtful Xiao Ming was, Medusa smiled again, touched her belly, and revealed a maternal charm on her cold and alluring face.

Having overheard everything, Xiao Yi Xian subconsciously glanced at Medusa's belly, a hint of envy appearing in her eyes.

She and Xiao Ming had been intimate quite a few times, so why Medusa able to conceive so easily while she couldn't? It doesn't make sense! Could it be that the higher one's cultivation level, the harder it is to conceive?

Xiao Ming glanced at Xiao Yi Xian and, seeing the envy on her face, knew what she was thinking.

Xiao Ming actually knew the reason for this. He couldn't conceive before because the Woeful Poison Body hadn't been completely resolved. Later, as his cultivation level increased, having offspring wouldn't be so easy.

Let things take their natural course.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming said to Medusa, "Swallow this pill now."

Upon hearing Xiao Ming's words, Medusa snapped out of her daze, nodded, poured out the pill, and stuffed it directly into her mouth.

As soon as the elixir entered Medusa's body, it transformed into a soft ray of light that slid into her body and then slowly lingered at her lower abdomen. The light gradually emanated, and Medusa felt somewhat tired.

"This is the initial effect of the medicine; you can rest for a while," Xiao Ming said with a slow smile.

Medusa looked around; there was nothing on the back of the Dragon Claw Red Eagle, and she couldn't find a place to rest.

Medusa's delicate body trembled slightly, but she did not refuse to walk slowly forward. However, her usually cold and beautiful face was now replaced by a rare blush, making her look even more enchanting and alluring.

Seeing that Medusa's breathing gradually stabilized in his arms, Xiao Ming waved to Xiao Yi Xian, who had been watching him.

Xiao Yi Xian didn't hesitate and quickly settled into Xiao Ming.

Thus, Xiao Ming found himself with women on both sides.

Meanwhile, Venerable Tian Huo had already wisely moved to the head of the Dragon Claw Red Eagle to control its trajectory.

Half a month later, in Holy Pill City.

Xiao Ming and his companions left the bustling crowd and returned to their residence.

I had only been sitting in the lobby for a short while when a woman dressed in light blue walked in.

The woman was extremely beautiful, her Linglong figure, encased in clothing, with alluring curves that were quite captivating. However, it was somewhat regrettable that her demeanor exuded a coldness that kept people at a distance. At first glance, one could tell that she was the kind of woman who was rather aloof. Such women were often the type that were extremely difficult for men to conquer, so those without much ability could only admire them from afar and not touch them.

The moment the woman entered, she saw Xiao Ming. The cold arrogance on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a look of joy. She quickly stepped forward and said...

Elder Xiao Ming, you're back!

"Xin Lan's here, have a seat." Xiao Ming glanced at her and gave a slight smile.

The person being pulled was Ye Xinlan, a disciple sent by the Ye Family to study.

Although she wasn't exactly a prodigy, her talent was still quite good, and coupled with her obedient personality, Xiao Ming had a good impression of her.

After Ye Xinlan sat down, she first asked Xiao Ming his trip had gone smoothly, and then asked him some questions about alchemy and cultivation.

Xiao Ming answered all the other party's questions without hesitation.

Finally, Xin Lan revealed the last purpose of her trip.

"Elder Xiao Ming, Da Zhanlai asked me to tell you that the assessment for our Five Great Clans will be in one month."

"A month from now? I understand, I'll go then."

The Five Great Clans Examination were a piece of cake for Xiao Ming; there was absolutely no difficulty involved. He would just have to go once, which would only take half a day.

However, this means his breakthrough to Dou Zun will be delayed again. In the meantime, it's not a bad idea to improve his Soul Realm first.
