Good Thing You Came Early

After spending seven days playing with Medusa and the others, Xiao Tian left the Free and Unfettered World to attend the Pill Gathering.

Under the management of the current Xiaoyao Palace and its core members such as Xiao Zhan, Xiao Dinghai, and others, the palace is thriving. At present, not counting the palaces of the Heavenly Palace, the Xiaoyao Palace has more than twenty Dou Zun, enough to sweep away most forces.

In a courtyard outside the Saint Pill City.

"Mu Gu Lao Ren, how dare you?" A young, slightly effeminate voice rang out from inside.

A chilling voice carrying Killing Intent emanated from the courtyard, accompanied by powerful fluctuations of Dou Qi.

"Hmph, Chen Xian, for the sake of your Xuan Ming Sect and the Heavenly Underworld Sect behind you, I'll spare your life this time. But if you try to play tricks on me again and try to use me as a tool, you will surely die!"

"Pfft!"

A young man in white was sent flying from the courtyard, blood gushing from his mouth as if it were free.

The young man's eyes were full of confusion. Why were things not developing as he had imagined? Given the mortal enmity between the Soul Hall and the Free and Unfettered Hall, they should have joined forces with him to target them.

"Next time you try to be clever, make sure you do your research first. You actually think you can get me to provoke the Free and Unfettered Hall, which has two Half-Saint."

If it weren't for the latest intelligence from the Free and Unfettered Hall, Mu Gu Lao Ren might have gone to check it out after hearing Chen Xian's words, since the Flame Mantra was also very tempting to him.

But things are different now. Xiao Yan is now the Chief Alchemist of the Free and Unfettered Hall and the head of the Pill Hall of the Free and Unfettered Hall.

If I were to attack him, unless I were to kill him with lightning speed, I would be targeted by the Free and Unfettered Hall, and I would probably have to hide in the Soul Hall for dear life. After all, being targeted by two young Half-Saint, and not just any ordinary ones, is a very terrifying thing.

Moreover, the intelligence reports indicate that Xiao Tian recently appeared in Saint Pill City. As Half-Saint Expert, he might appear before me the moment I make a move.

If I were to face Half-Saint, the odds would be roughly 1 in 9. I'd die nine times in a second.

Unbeknownst to them, Xiao Tian was hiding in the void above the courtyard, watching the spectacle unfold before him.

"A dogfight? Well, I'll add fuel to the fire and make things even more exciting."

Xiao Tian flicked his fingers, and a wisp of Yin-cold power from the Guishui Thunder entered Chen Xian's body. In any case, the Heavenly Underworld Sect and the Xuan Ming Sect would definitely be enemies in the future, so Xiao Tian didn't need to keep him around. After doing all this, Xiao Tian left.

Chen Xian to the Soul Hall to plot against Xiao Yan was an unexpected gain for Xiao Tian.

Originally, after he had given countless good things to Xuan Yi, he had nothing to do and decided to use his soul to check on Cao Ying's situation. That's when he sensed the aura of a Heavenly Flames and discovered this scene.

"Young Sect Master! Damn it, what's going on?!" An Venerable Elder from the Xuan Ming Sect, a Dou Zun, who was waiting for Chen Xian at the entrance, saw Chen Xian flying out and hurriedly caught him. At this time, Chen Xian was already barely breathing. "Soul Hall, you're courting death!!"

"Get out! If you don't leave, I'll hit you too. You actually thought you could outsmart me? Do you really think I'm a fool?"

The sinister voice of the Mu Gu Lao Ren emanated from within, followed by a powerful aura pressing down on him.

The old man's expression kept changing. He was no match for Mu Gu Lao Ren in strength, and the other party had many other Ming Protector. If he didn't leave, he might really lose his life.

In the end, he could only lash out in anger, taking out a healing pill from his Storage Ring and stuffing it into Chen Xian's mouth. However, due to Xiao Tian's Dou Qi, the pill had no effect.

He gritted his teeth, picked up Chen Xian, and quickly left the courtyard, heading towards Saint Pill City. He didn't go to the Xuan Ming Sect's temporary residence, but planned to find a Seven Rank Alchemist who had a good relationship with the Xuan Ming Sect, because only that person could save him now.

The old man landed directly in what appeared to be a rather grand courtyard. Without a second thought, he kicked open the door of the house and shouted urgently, "Hao You Jin Youjin, quick, save Young Sect Master Chen Xian!"

Inside the house, a middle-aged man was engaged in an unspeakable act with a middle-aged woman. Startled by the sudden noise, he shuddered, nearly scared out of his wits, his hands and feet turned icy cold, and he shrank back.

He frantically grabbed a robe from the side to cover himself. He turned his head, saw that it was someone from the Xuan Ming Sect, breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but curse angrily:

"You old bastard from the Xuan Ming Sect, are you in such a hurry to reincarnate?! Can't you even knock before entering?! I thought her husband had come over! Damn it, if you scare me to death, I'll never forgive you!"

The beautiful woman, equally terrified, clutched the blanket tightly around herself and huddled in the corner of the bed.

"Don't say so much yet, save the Young Sect Master first." The old man ignored the other's angry curses and rushed to the bedside, gently placing the barely breathing Chen Xian in his arms on the soft couch beside him.

Although the middle-aged man named Hao You Jin was cursing fiercely, his expression instantly turned serious when he saw Chen Xian's miserable state. He hurriedly tied on an outer robe, ignoring the beautiful woman curled up in the brocade quilt beside him, her face pale with fright, and immediately stepped forward to check on her.

Hao You Jin used his soul to investigate Chen Xian's condition, and the more he investigated, the uglier his expression became. He suddenly looked up at the old man, "What ruthless methods! All five internal organs are damaged, meridians are severed, and the heart is filled with cold, yin energy. The Dou Qi vortex is almost dissipated! Who did this?"

"There's no time for explanations now!" The old man's forehead veins bulged with anxiety. "Saving lives is the priority! The Sect Master only has one son; if anything happens to him, neither of us will escape unscathed!"

Hao You Jin dismissed the words of the Xuan Ming Sect elder with a sneer. Even if he couldn't be saved, Chen Tian Nan wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

However, he didn't want to hold a grudge against a Dou Zun Expert. He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his shock and lingering fear, and his eyes became focused. "You go out first, I'll treat him."

When the old man from the Xuan Ming Sect left, he casually took the trembling, beautiful woman and her blanket with him and tossed her into a room.

About five minutes later, Hao You Jin came out of the room, his expression uncertain.

"Guest Hao, how is the Young Sect Master?" The elder of the Xuan Ming Sect hurriedly grabbed the middle-aged man and asked anxiously.

"Thank goodness you arrived early. With such severe injuries all over his body, he might have died outside if you had come later."

The old man breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and continued to press for answers.

"So how is it now?"

The middle-aged man shrugged:

"He's dead inside the house now."
