No One Can Stop Someone Who Wants to Die

Everyone present, including Qi Shan, was well aware of Yan Lao's discerning eye at Thousand Medicines Workshop. Even someone as picky as him as he was about pills gave such a high evaluation to this Dou Ling Pill, so its quality must have reached a truly terrifying level.

As everyone in the hall gasped for breath, the look of shock in their eyes as they gazed at the mysterious Sixth Grade Alchemist intensified.

Xiao Yan also looked at the Dou Ling Pill lying in the white-haired old man's hand with surprise, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes.

I never imagined that during my seclusion, my Third Brother had already cultivated his alchemy skills to such a high level.

The Medicinal Herbs seemed to have a different kind of fiery scent. Could it be that Third Brother's Heavenly Flames had changed again? "This is impossible!"

Qi Shan's face was filled with disbelief as he gritted his teeth and said.

Even with his current alchemy skills, the success rate of refining the Dou Ling Pill is less than 50%. Moreover, as the chief alchemist of the Black Emperor Sect, the pills he refines naturally belong to the sect first. So, in reality, his wealth is not as enviable as many people imagine.

At least, he does have one of these Dou Ling Pill, but he would absolutely not give it up to exchange for these Medicinal Herbs.

Such remarks were naturally difficult to convince the public. Compared to his current somewhat exasperated state, the white-haired old man's words were clearly more credible.

"Impossible?" Qi Shan's words undoubtedly implied doubt about Yan Lao's judgment. The white-haired elder sneered, "Based on my experience, even some Sixth Grade Alchemist would not be able to refine pills of this quality without the help of special flames."

This is quite clear: in the Black-Corner Region, only Han Feng, who possessed the Sea Heart Flame, had such strength back then.

Upon hearing this, Qi Shan's expression changed, and he couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Yan Lao, even if your success rate in refining the Dou Ling Pill is extremely low, aren't you overestimating this Dou Ling Pill a bit too much?"

Upon hearing Qi Shan's words, Yan Lao of Thousand Medicines Workshop glanced at him indifferently and sneered, "Perhaps I am not as good as you in terms of alchemy, but when it comes to judging pills, I am not afraid of you at all."

Speechless for a moment after being taken aback by Yan Lao's words, Qi Shan was somewhat embarrassed. When it came to judging the quality of pills, even he had to admit that he was no match for the former.

"My lord, are you really going to exchange this Dou Ling Pill for these Medicinal Herbs?"

Market Master Yao looked at Xiao Yuan with a smile on her face, but her voice was slightly apprehensive. The value of this Dou Ling Pill was far greater than these few Medicinal Herbs. The young man in black had no objection to this. If this deal could be made, she would even be willing to leave Qi Shan aside. Even Yan Lao praised the Dou Ling Pill so highly that it could definitely be considered a top-grade of the top-grade of the Tier 5 Pill. Although Thousand Medicines Workshop was wary of Qi Shan, she was not afraid of him.

Xiao Yuan understood the unease in Market Master Yao's words. He also knew that the value of the Dou Ling Pill was far higher than these Medicinal Herbs, but at the moment he only had this one Tier 5 Pill left over from the original refining in his Storage Ring. He also had some other pills, but they were not much higher than the Dou Ling Pill, or they were just ordinary pills that were not enough to determine the outcome. There was no need to show them off.

Moreover, one of these Medicinal Herbs is the main ingredient for the Bone Growing Blood Melting Pill, which must be obtained! "Well, if Market Master Yao has no objections, then these Medicinal Herbs are mine."

Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded, then said.

Upon hearing this, Market Master Yao's face lit up with ecstasy. Just as he was about to nod, Qi Shan slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily, "Wait!"

Interrupted by Qi Shan, Market Master Yao's expression darkened slightly. She turned her beautiful eyes to Qi Shan, her voice suppressing a hint of anger. "Elder Qi, I respect you as a prominent figure in Black Emperor City, so I have great respect for you. Please do not force my Thousand Medicines Workshop to place you under house arrest!"

The Thousand Medicines Workshop is so prosperous in Black Emperor City, and has the help of a pharmacist of Yan Lao's strength, means that it is not something that can be easily manipulated. Although Qi Shan has a strong background, he is not someone who can sit on their head and do whatever he wants.

Hearing Market Master Yao's angry words, Qi Shan's expression changed slightly. He then snorted coldly, glared at Xiao Yuan with a fierce look, and said, "It's just Dou Ling Pill. Do you think I can't produce one?"

"Bang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Shan flicked his hand, and a jade bottle appeared. It then landed heavily on the table. If it weren't for the Dou Qi, the jade bottle would probably have shattered.

Upon seeing Qi Shan's actions, another uproar erupted in the hall. The gazes directed at Qi Shan were filled with disbelief and astonishment. Had this old fellow lost his mind today? Not only did he not try to take advantage, but he also generously donated a Dou Ling Pill.

Qi Shan was heartbroken at the astonished gazes around him. He was about to refine a Sixth Grade Pill, one of the main ingredients of which was the Jade Bone Fruit from the Medicinal Herbs. Therefore, he was determined to obtain it. In addition, he was provoked by Xiao Yuan. If news spread that he, the chief alchemist of the Black Emperor Sect, could not even compete with a young girl, how could he, who valued his reputation, bear it? Driven by these two conditions, Qi Shan gritted his teeth, endured the heartache, and took out the only Dou Ling Pill he had stored.

Qi Shan's actions clearly surprised Market Master Yao and Yan Lao beside him. They never thought they could gain an advantage over this old man. The two looked at each other, both somewhat embarrassed.

After hesitating for a moment, Yan Lao slowly reached out and took the jade bottle, then poured out the pill inside. His brows furrowed slightly as he glanced at it.

Seeing this Market Master Yao standing to the side, felt a chill in his heart and asked, "Yan Lao?"

"It is indeed Dou Ling Pill." Slowly withdrawing his gaze, Yan Lao glanced at Qi Shan and said indifferently, "However, its quality is far inferior to that of this gentleman's."

"Nonsense! I am also a dignified Sixth Grade Alchemist. I have been refining pills for longer than she has lived. How could the pills I refine be inferior to hers?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Shan flew into a rage and shouted angrily.

Yan Lao ignored the furious Qi Shan, holding Xiao Yuan's Dou Ling Pill in his right hand and Qi Shan's in his left, then opened them up and addressed all the alchemists in the hall. "You are all alchemists with considerable reputations in Black Emperor City, and you should all have some ability to distinguish between pills. Tell me, which of these two Dou Ling Pill is superior?"

Upon hearing Yan Lao's words, gazes immediately shot over, then lingered on the two pills for a while before their expressions became somewhat strange. In terms of both quality and the aura they emitted, Xiao Yuan's pill was undoubtedly far superior to Qi Shan's.

The effect of the Dou Ling Pill is to increase the strength of a Dou Wang- level expert by one star. However, this increase also has a failure rate. In this case, it depends on the quality of the pill. Simply put, if a Dou Wang expert takes Dou Ling Pill from Xiao Yuan and one from Qi Shan, the former's pill will definitely have a higher success rate! A Dou Wang can only take one Dou Ling Pill, so if you want to buy the pill, even if you have to spend all your wealth, you will probably have to buy Xiao Yuan's pill first.

With such a comparison, the difference between the two is immediately apparent.

Of course, although everyone knew which of the two pills was superior, no one spoke up. After all, speaking up now would offend Qi Shan, so for a moment, the hall fell into an awkward silence.

Despite the silence, almost all eyes in the hall were fixed on Yan Lao's right hand, where the pill was Xiao Yuan's Dou Ling Pill.

This scene was naturally noticed by Qi Shan, who, even with his thick skin, quickly blushed. A dark look gradually appeared in his eyes as he looked at Xiao Yuan. Clearly, this old man, who was not very magnanimous, already harbored resentment towards Xiao Yuan.

Yan Lao slowly withdrew his hands, placed the two pills back into the jade bottles, and then handed one of the jade bottles back to Qi Shan, his meaning self-evident.

"My lord, these Medicinal Herbs are yours."

Seeing Yan Lao's actions, Market Master Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then smiled at Xiao Yuan.

"Okay, put the medicine away."

Xiao Yuan looked at Xiao Yan and said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded, feeling relieved.

These Medicinal Herbs are all quite precious, and one of them is even the Medicinal Herbs needed to revive the teacher. Although Qi Shan made him very unhappy, with his current combat power, he dared not say that he could definitely not take the Black Emperor Sect seriously, so he did not want to cause trouble.

However, now that Third Brother has arrived, it means that Teacher has also returned. With Teacher as their guarantee, even if the two brothers overthrow the Black Emperor Sect today, they will not encounter any trouble.

Upon hearing this, everyone assumed that Xiao Yuan was asking Xiao Yi Xian to fetch the Medicinal Herbs, but Xiao Yi Xian knew Xiao Yuan and knew that he wasn't giving her orders.

So, under everyone's surprised gazes, Xiao Yan stepped forward and put the Medicinal Herbs into his Storage Ring.

???

Market Master Yao and the others were also stunned by what they saw.

"Grown ups."

Market Master Yao hesitated for a moment, looked at Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan, and seemed to realize something, but still wanted to confirm.

"Hmm, it's alright, don't worry." Xiao Yuan waved his hand, then pulled Xiao Yi Xian up and beckoned to Xiao Yan, "Let's go."

"Hey, Third Sister."

Xiao Yan smiled kindly at Market Master Yao and Yan Lao, then responded and followed them.

"Third Sister?"

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was happening.

So they're family? Seeing the three of them leave like that, Qi Shan's face darkened, and suddenly, he launched a sneak attack on Xiao Yuan!

As Xiao Yuan was walking gracefully down the stairs, he felt a powerful gust of wind suddenly attacking from behind, and he immediately raised an eyebrow.

When some people are determined to die, there's nothing you can do to stop them.

At the same time, the expressions of Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yan on either side of Xiao Yuan instantly turned gloomy. Then, Xiao Yi Xian shattered the gust of wind with a slap and immediately fired a poisoned arrow at Qi Shan.

After sensing the extraordinary aura of the other party, Xiao Yan nodded slightly. Then, a flash of silver light appeared under his feet, and he activated the Three Thousand Lightning Movement. In an instant, he arrived behind Qi Shan and unleashed a smooth and flowing Eight Extremes Collapse punch.

Bang! The fierce force caused Qi Shan's expression to change drastically.

He was also Dou Huang expert! However, Xiao Yan's combat power was now no less than that of some high-level Dou Emperor, and this punch was filled with killing intent, so Qi Shan had no way to dodge it.

As a result, his body was thrown forward, and the eight layers of hidden energy exploded within his body, causing him to be seriously injured on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, he crashed headfirst into the poisoned arrow fired by Xiao Yi Xian, without uttering a scream, and instantly turned into a puddle of black water.

Then, Xiao Yuan slowly flicked a ball of Cyan-Brown Flame behind him, dissolving the black water on the ground.

Even so, traces of corrosion from the highly toxic substance still appeared on the ground.

This startled everyone present.

Such a potent poison!

"I'm sorry, Market Master Yao, this bottle of Tier 4 Pill should be enough to compensate for the damage to the ground. If the Black Emperor Sect makes things difficult for you, let them come to me, Xuan Bing. Of course, if you want to avenge this old man, I don't mind sending them to see him."

Xiao Yuan casually placed a bottle of Grade 4 Healing Pill on the counter using his soul power, and then led Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian out of the Thousand Medicines Workshop.

"They're actually two Dou Huang expert!"

After a moment of silence, everyone looked at the corroded marks on the ground and couldn't help but sigh.

"No, that Sixth Grade Alchemist is also Dou Huang expert, and his fire control technique is truly exquisite!"

Yan Lao exclaimed in amazement.

He had clearly seen that the Cyan-Brown Flame, which appeared to be at the same temperature as an ordinary flame, was actually some kind of Heavenly Flames. Its terrifyingly high temperature burned away the poisonous water in an instant, but did not cause any damage to the ground.

Such an alchemist must also possess terrifying combat power, far surpassing that of other experts of the same level.

As for the other two, they are equally extraordinary. The black-clad youth's speed and explosive power are quite terrifying. Judging from the scorching aura in his Dou Qi, he clearly possesses some kind of Heavenly Flames, and may even have a rare and wondrous object like Heavenly Flames.

The white-clad woman's poison skills were unprecedentedly terrifying; even a casual strike possessed such power, suggesting that her own strength was equally formidable.

No wonder they dared to disregard the Black Emperor Sect. If these three joined forces, even the sect leader of the Black Emperor Sect would probably not dare to underestimate them.

Moreover, he was a Sixth Grade Alchemist comparable to the Medicine Emperor Han Feng. With a single call, countless Dou Wang and Dou Huang expert would respond. Therefore, even if these three were to face the entire Black Emperor Sect, they would probably not be afraid.

Just as Yan Lao was thinking this, he saw that the Sixth Grade Alchemist who called himself Xuan Bing had returned to the second floor with his men and walked straight over.

Suddenly, his heart tightened. Had he forgotten to ask earlier if Market Master Yao had any news about the Bodhi Transformation Saliva?

Upon hearing this, Yan Lao breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he was just asking about the Medicinal Herbs.
