Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pills

Qin Anlan's purpose had never truly been to recruit True Person Ziwei.

True Person Ziwei possessed the cultivation of the Peak Saint stage.

Such strength could, at best, barely enter the ranks of top-tier combat power in the entire Heavenly Flame Empire.

But one must not forget that the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate was a superpower with a legacy spanning millions of years.

The strength and foundation it possessed were simply beyond anyone's imagination.

The estate was never lacking in experts.

Whether those in the open or those hidden in the shadows, its experts surpassed everyone's imagination.

Not to mention Saint-level mighty figures.

There were even dozens of Saint Lord-level experts.

Naturally, they did not place a mere True Person Ziwei in their eyes.

And Qin Anlan's purpose—

Aside from taking this opportunity to drive a wedge between Ye Qingyun and True Person Ziwei—

The most important point was that he had taken an interest in Ye Qingyun's beautiful master.

This was Ye Qingyun's master.

The beautiful master of a Child of Destiny.

The temptation of that identity—

Also added a few more layers of charm to Ye Qingyun himself.

Upon Qin Anlan's Bronze Sparrow Platform, there were already the two predetermined female leads, Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruxue.

As for the third candidate, it was the True Person Ziwei before him.

"Since True Person Ziwei is unwilling, this Young Lord can give you some time to consider."

"If you are willing to join my Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate, then from this day onward, Ye Qingyun will be under this Young Lord's care."

"Even if he causes some monstrous disaster, this Young Lord will find a way to protect him."

"Furthermore, if Ye Qingyun has any needs, this Young Lord can even bestow the two sisters, Liu Ruxue and Liu Ruyan, upon him."

"You... you..."

Qin Anlan's words caused Ye Qingyun, who had forcibly suppressed his fury, to become enraged beyond endurance once more.

At this moment,

Ye Qingyun finally understood completely.

Qin Anlan not only wanted him to kneel and beg for mercy, humiliating him without end.

He also wanted to seize everything that belonged to Ye Qingyun.

First Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruxue, the two sisters, and then his own master, True Person Ziwei.

The Liu Ruxue Ye Qingyun could only long for but never reach was, in Qin Anlan's mouth, nothing more than an expendable commodity that could be given away at any time.

Her fate was entirely held in Qin Anlan's hands.

It could be said without the slightest exaggeration,

In this world where the weak were meat and the strong ate them, the strong were kings.

So long as he possessed sufficient strength, Ye Qingyun could do whatever he pleased.

At this moment, Ye Qingyun's desire for strength was more urgent and intense than ever before.

No matter how much resentment filled his heart, after Huo Yun Xie Shen's round of persuasion, Ye Qingyun did not dare say anything more.

Before his strength was sufficient, only lying low and waiting for the right moment, enduring in silence before striking, was the key to preserving his life.

"I appreciate Young Lord of the Divine Marquis's goodwill."

"But I will still say the same thing. I have grown accustomed to a carefree life and do not wish to serve any faction."

True Person Ziwei had not expected Qin Anlan to say such things.

Qin Anlan had already displayed sufficient sincerity.

If it had been an ordinary person, they might well have directly pledged themselves to Qin Anlan.

Unfortunately, True Person Ziwei still remained unmoved.

"This Young Lord will never force someone against their will, nor will I use Ye Qingyun's life to threaten True Person Ziwei. I only hope that True Person Ziwei will consider it carefully."

As Qin Anlan spoke, there was also a peculiar glint in his eyes.

If he obtained her so easily, Qin Anlan might not cherish her.

The harder something was to obtain, the more it stirred Qin Anlan's desire to conquer.

Qin Anlan had not placed his hopes on today's conversation.

He did not expect True Person Ziwei to obediently submit to him today.

This conversation was merely laying the groundwork for the future rupture between Ye Qingyun and True Person Ziwei, master and disciple.

Once Qin Anlan used his final move, once True Person Ziwei became utterly disappointed in Ye Qingyun—

He believed she would not hesitate to throw herself into Qin Anlan's embrace.

"This pill is called the Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pill. As for its effects, there is no need for this Young Lord to say more."

Qin Anlan smiled faintly and took a jade box from his robes.

Qin Anlan slowly opened the jade box, and a spirit pill shot into the sky, floating in midair.

Golden light flickered all around the pill.

Its appearance was accompanied by a rising phenomenon.

Countless Dao Patterns formed in the void.

Within that phenomenon, one could vaguely sense an extremely terrifying aura.

"Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pills?"

When True Person Ziwei saw the pill in Qin Anlan's hand, he could not help letting out a cry of astonishment.

Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pills were eighth-grade pills, and among eighth-grade pills, they were exceedingly precious.

They were refined from a vast quantity of rare treasures through special methods.

Moreover, only an alchemy grandmaster had a chance of refining such a Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pill.

As its name implied, it possessed the ability to seize the fortune of Heaven and Earth.

If an expert at the Peak Saint stage consumed a Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pill, a passage could be opened within their body, leading directly to the Saint Lord stage.

Of course,

This did not mean that consuming a Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pill would allow one to directly break through to the Saint Lord stage.

Rather, it meant gaining an additional measure of certainty.

Even after consuming this pill, there was still the risk of failing to break through.

But at such a realm, any additional measure of certainty was a heaven-sent opportunity.

If True Person Ziwei possessed this pill, he would have a great chance of breaking through to the Saint Lord stage.

At True Person Ziwei's realm, every minor realm was a separate heaven.

The combat power one could wield was utterly incomparable.

"This pill is this Young Lord's sincerity."

"This Young Lord is rather looking forward to the day True Person Ziwei breaks through to the Saint Lord stage."

After saying this, Qin Anlan left the pill with True Person Ziwei.

Before True Person Ziwei and Ye Qingyun, master and disciple, could say anything else, he turned and left.

Throughout the entire process, he moved as smoothly as drifting clouds and flowing water, without the slightest hint of dragging his feet.

The Heaven-Seizing Fortune Pill was so precious that even the Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate did not possess many of them.

It could be said without exaggeration that Qin Anlan had bled heavily for True Person Ziwei.

Of course, Qin Anlan believed that his future gains would certainly not disappoint him.

If he could obtain an Saint Lord-level expert such as True Person Ziwei,

Only then would Qin Anlan's investment yield a generous return.

"That little girl's aptitude is indeed not bad."

"But in this old man's view, that girl has no intention of joining my Divine Marquis of Zhenguo's Estate."

"Young Master's scheme to drive a wedge between them may not truly be able to split that master and disciple apart."

Just as Qin Anlan turned and left the death prison,

A mysterious figure emerged from the void and appeared before Qin Anlan.

This person was none other than Qin Zizai, who had always followed Qin Anlan and secretly protected him.
