"What exactly does Yun Lan Ancestor want to do?"

Black Corner Region, Maple City.

For the past few days, Medicine Emperor Han Feng has been in a state of shock. Every piece of astonishing news he has received from his subordinates has left Han Feng speechless.

Speaking of Han Feng, he is a household name. Back then, he was not even a Dou Emperor, yet he actually killed his Dou Zun master. Even he himself found it unbelievable afterward, wondering how he had managed to do it. It was truly bizarre.

Now, the astonishing methods of this Yun Lan Ancestor have given Han Feng a huge fright. Not only does the opponent possess the strength of Dou Sheng, but he can also refine pills of the Eighth-Tier to Ninth-grade Pill. He is truly a god!

"Maple Emperor, Yun Lan Ancestor is coming to the Black Corner Region tomorrow, claiming to be holding some kind of lecture conference. Should we attend?" a subordinate asked Han Feng.

I've heard that anyone who goes there can receive a magical fruit, and based on the order of arrival, they can also receive high-grade seventh to Eighth-Tier pills for free. This is undoubtedly an enormous temptation.

Even now, before the conference has even started, many people have already lined up there, and some have even set up makeshift beds on the ground, planning to spend the night there.

"This..." Han Feng was also attracted by the allure of the high-grade pills offered by Ye Qianqian. After thinking for a moment, he immediately said, "Let's go take a look too. I'm also very curious to know what this Yun Lan Ancestor is up to."

"The Maple Emperor is wise"

With Han Feng's approval, his subordinates excitedly ran to the outside of the venue to wait for the arrival of Yun Lan Ancestor the next day.

Meanwhile, powerful figures from various factions, including the Old Ghost of Earth Demon of Magic Flame Valley, Fan Lao of the Blood Sect Fan Lao, the Gold Silver Elders, and Mo Tianxing of the Black Emperor Sect, also paid attention to the matter. In an instant, powerful figures gathered, waiting for the Yunlan Lecture Conference the next day.

This expert lecture was held in a huge arena in the Black Corner Region, which was so vast that it could accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Ye Qianqian will also descend upon this square the next day to preach and teach all the people of the Black Corner Region.

The square's gates remained tightly shut, but a large crowd had already gathered outside, and fierce battles were even taking place, with severed limbs and heads rolling about – a truly bloody scene.

These people from the Black Corner Region are usually ruthless villains who would kill their own relatives and friends for the smallest gain. But when they heard that there were free pills of Eighth-Tier and below being distributed here, they immediately became bloodthirsty madmen and began to fight for the front positions.

Because the Misty Cloud Sect had declared that whoever was first in line would receive the highest reward, they were willing to risk their lives to be the first to claim the prize.

This chaotic scene didn't last long. Finally, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't stand it anymore and came out to maintain order, scolding everyone and ordering them to line up properly, or they would not be allowed to enter.

"You little brat, you have some nerve making me wait in line! Do you know who I am? I'm Wang Sanpang, the infamous butcher chef of the Black Corner Region, One-star Dou King! If you know what's good for you, get the hell out of my way, or I'll grab you, sleep with you, and then skin you alive!"

A middle-aged fat man, as fat as a pig, jiggled his enormous belly and didn't take Xiao Yi Xian seriously.

When the people around saw Fatty Wang arrive, they had no choice but to keep their distance, afraid of provoking him.

This fat man was a ruthless character in the Black Corner Region. He once killed hundreds of members of another family, regardless of age or gender. He even fried and cooked those corpses and ate them. His methods were extremely cruel, which earned him the reputation of a butcher chef.

Xiao Yi Xian laughed, "Dou Wang expert! I'm so scared!"

"Whoosh!"

A streak of poisonous light flashed past, and the fat man felt a chill on his right shoulder. Turning his head, he saw that his right arm had suddenly melted away without him noticing.

"Ouch, it hurts so much!" The fat man rolled on the ground, writhing in agony.

Xiao Yi Xian coldly said, "Hurry up and line up for me!"

"Splash! Splash!"

Groups of powerful figures from the Black Corner Region immediately formed ranks and stood ramrod straight. After that brainless Fatty Wang's suicidal act, they dared not cause any more trouble.

"What beautiful women!" Mo Ya of the Black Emperor Sect, who was in the distance, was captivated by the appearance of Xiao Yi Xian and the others. He was immediately amazed. If he could win over such beautiful women, it would be an immense achievement!

"Ya'er, don't even think about it. That woman's strength is astonishing. Even I am far inferior to her. You are still inexperienced and do not know the gravity of the situation. If we offend her, our Black Emperor Sect will be doomed," Mo Tianxing sighed.

With Ye Qianqian's help, Xiao Yi Xian and her companions have fully integrated with the Divine Sacred Bead and are now genuine One-Star Dou Saint. Mo Tianxing cannot detect their strength, but he can sense how unapproachable they are.

"She's actually that strong?" Mo Ya trembled at Mo Tianxing's words and immediately abandoned his previous thoughts.

Before the two could finish speaking, they saw that the Old Ghost of Earth Demon not far away had already been scolded by Yun Yun Medusa.

"Hey old man over there, how can you cut in line like that? Your number is 120, and you're trying to snatch the number from the person in front of you. You're so old, yet you have no kindness whatsoever. Do bad people just get old?"

Everyone covered their mouths and chuckled, watching the Old Ghost of Earth Demon get his comeuppance. The dignified Valley Master of Magic Flame Valley, a Dou Zong expert with the strength of a six or seven-star, was actually being scolded like a dog in front of Na Lan Yan Ran.

The Da Dou Shi was fifteenth in line and about to have his number snatched away finally breathed a sigh of relief, arrogantly raising his head. "Pah! What Old Ghost of Earth Demon? Even he has to obediently queue up and enter according to his number in front of the Lord of the Misty Cloud Sect."

And so, the group waited anxiously outside the square all night, feeling incredibly frustrated, yet daring not to utter a single word, for the prospect of receiving the prizes the next day had already consumed their thoughts.

Some teachers from the Jia Nan Academy and members of the Misty Cloud Sect began to run small businesses outside the square, following Ye Qianqian's guidance, and the businesses were extremely successful.

"Fun tents, 50 Gold Coin each, can block outside detection, a must-have for couples venturing into the wilderness."

"A top-grade energy-boosting pill to shake off fatigue, 100 Gold Coin per pill."

"A warm lamp, once lit, can illuminate countless dark nights, making loneliness and solitude no longer feel presentable. Thirty Gold Coin..."

"Card games, the great invention of Yun Lan Ancestor, allow three people to sit together and help you avoid those long, boring nights..."

"Give me a deck of those cards," the Gold Silver Elders called over a servant and asked, "How much?"

Xiao Si laughed and said, "Reporting to you two lords, this deck of cards is not 99,800, nor 9,980, but only 998. There are multiple ways to play, which are intellectually stimulating and will make you happy. It is the great invention of Yun Lan Ancestor."

The Gold Silver Elders "..."

Unfortunately, many people still bought a pair to combat the loneliness of the long nights.

Following the instructions above, everyone had a great time. Of all the games, their favorites were poker and bridge.

Especially the game of Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game), this novel way of playing it completely captivated them. They felt that Ye Qianqian's existence was even more mysterious and great, and they slowly got through this bizarre night.

The gates of the square finally opened the next morning when the sun rose above the horizon.

The crowd entered the square in a noisy commotion.

Yun Shan, Yun Yun, and the others appeared in the square. In front of them was a huge table, and behind them were boxes of Devil Fruit and pills.

Everyone was shocked. Such valuable pills, packaged in cardboard boxes? Are you pill wholesalers?

With a beaming smile, like a pyramid scheme lecturer, Yun Shan loudly proclaimed, "Today, everyone, it is the happiest day for my Misty Cloud Sect to be able to attend our lecture. The Misty Cloud Sect's long-standing mission has always been to spread happiness to millions of families and fill the world with happiness. Therefore, we are all one family. Now, let's all shout together, 'We are one family!'"

"We are one family!" Xiao Yi Xian and Medusa shouted the slogan first.

Everyone was confused. What did this mean? Weren't they supposed to receive the prize soon?

Well, it's fine if they just shout it out in order to get the high-grade pills.

"We are one family!"

"We are one family!"

"We are one family!"

Scattered voices drifted from the crowd; Han Feng, Mo Tianxing, and the others, for the sake of the reward, couldn't help but shout out in hushed tones.

"Very good"

Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Yun Shan began to get down to business.

"First, please have the holder of the first number come forward to receive their prize," Yun Shan said mysteriously. "The first person will receive a Logia Devil Fruit and an Eighth-Tier Pill."

"Whoosh!"

The crowd erupted in uproar. They didn't know anything about Devil Fruit, but this Eighth-Tier Pill had them all buzzing with excitement.

The Misty Cloud Sect is truly incredibly wealthy.

A One-star Dou Practitioner, trembling, arrived before Yun Shan. The reason he was able to obtain the honor of first place was because he happened to be passing by and Medusa handed him a number plate. Unexpectedly, he would actually receive Eighth-Tier Pill. He was incredibly lucky.

The stunningly beautiful Medusa, acting as the award presenter, gracefully walked over carrying a tray, exuding charm and captivating smiles that mesmerized everyone.

"This Devil Fruit is Logia. After eating it, one can transform into the elements of heaven and earth, ignoring physical attacks, but it fears seawater. As long as you can fully develop the power of the fruit, even Dou Sheng Expert will not be your match. And this Eighth-Tier Pill is a good medicine that can raise a Dou Zun expert by one star."

"What?"

Everyone thought it was utterly absurd; where in the world could such a fruit exist?

"Oh, I understand," the man hurriedly stuffed the pill into his pocket, then held the Devil Fruit in his hands.

Medusa smiled and said, "Keep it up, you're the best!"

The man nodded hurriedly, "I, Zhao Yuetian, am the best."
