Han Feng's Objective

Han Feng looked at the puzzled expressions of the crowd and continued, "You are all intelligent people, so I won't beat around the bush. This time, I, Han Feng, intend to deal with Canaan Academy!"

Canaan Academy!

These words exploded in everyone's hearts. Yuan Yi was the first to speak, "Medicine Emperor, what does this mean?"

Han Feng smiled and said, "It means I need your help to deal with Canaan Academy! And I need your full support!"

The people present fell silent; no one dared to be the first to commit.

Yin Gu Lao asked suspiciously, "Medicine Emperor, why do you want to deal with Canaan Academy? This doesn't seem like a wise choice. After all, the foundation of Canaan Academy is far beyond what we can compare to."

Yin Gu Lao's words echoed the thoughts of everyone present.

Tie Wu asked with some doubt, "Medicine Emperor, if this is a personal grudge between you and Canaan Academy, it wouldn't be appropriate for us to intervene. You had better explain yourself clearly."

Han Feng knew everyone would try to decline; after all, in their eyes, Canaan Academy was a towering mountain that was not easy to climb.

Not to mention the others, the Inner Academy's First Elder, Su Qian, was extremely difficult to deal with, as he was a genuine Dou Zong powerhouse.

Han Feng smiled and said, "Of course I know your concerns, but my conflict with Canaan Academy is not due to a personal vendetta, but for other reasons. I will tell you the specifics later, but I can guarantee one thing: the reward this time will be extremely generous! So generous that you cannot even imagine it!"

Han Feng's final sentence undoubtedly stirred the greed in everyone's hearts. The value of a "generous reward" from a peak sixth-tier alchemist was unparalleled.

However, this was a tough nut to crack. After all, it involved Canaan Academy, and Su Qian was a stone weighing heavily on the hearts of everyone in the Black-Corner Region.

Su Mei stepped in to ask the question on everyone's minds: "Medicine Emperor, the Inner Academy's First Elder, Su Qian, is not someone to be trifled with. If we offend them, it will be hard for us to survive in the Black-Corner Region."

"That's right, Medicine Emperor, you must think this through carefully!" Yuan Yi also urged. As someone who ran an auction business, he did not want to get involved in the struggles of such major powers.

Han Feng smiled and said, "Previously, the candidate I had in mind to hold back Su Qian was the Gold and Silver Elders, but that was indeed a bit of a stretch. Now, I would prefer to leave this matter to the two sect masters of the Xiao Sect."

Hai Bodong did not respond immediately upon hearing Han Feng's words.

Seeing Hai Bodong's attitude, Han Feng knew there was a chance.

Su Mei smiled and said, "The two sect masters of the Xiao Sect are both top-tier experts. Even the Gold and Silver Elders are no match for you. There will certainly be no problem if the two of you handle Su Qian."

Listening to Su Mei, Hai Bodong shook his head and said, "Everyone, I, Hai Bodong, am a newcomer. I am not very familiar with this Canaan Academy or this person named Su Qian you speak of, so I fear I am not up to the task."

Han Feng laughed loudly toward the sky, then said to Hai Bodong, "Ice Emperor, I don't think you have ever consumed an Imperial Extreme Pill, have you?"

The pupils of everyone present shrank slightly, as the name "Imperial Extreme Pill" had an irresistible appeal to anyone at the Dou Huang level.

Upon realizing the extent of Han Feng's determination, everyone swallowed hard.

While the reward was generous, it came with significant risks.

Hai Bodong shook his head and said, "The Imperial Extreme Pill is certainly attractive, but from what you say, that Su Qian is at least a Dou Zong, and possibly a veteran expert at that. This is not enough to make me risk my life."

Han Feng spoke again, "Of course! I understand that perfectly, given the risks involved. That is why I have prepared another reward."

Hai Bodong said with interest, "Oh? Let's hear it."

Han Feng leaned into Hai Bodong's ear and whispered, "I presume Sect Master White Fang is about to break through to the Dou Zong level? I can provide a peak sixth-tier Break-Zong Pill!"

Hai Bodong's eyes flickered. Han Feng immediately noticed his expression and knew the deal was done.

He then whispered in a voice only Hai Bodong could hear, "Ice Emperor, as long as you agree to my request, I promise to give you these two pills right now!"

Hai Bodong's face showed shock, but after a few minutes of deep thought, he nodded at Han Feng.

Seeing Hai Bodong agree, the other factions present began to feel eager. After all, Han Feng was offering far too much.

Han Feng announced to everyone, "To those present, as long as you agree to my request, I promise each of you an Imperial Extreme Pill! And once the deed is done, I will present them immediately!"

Everyone considered it for a while. Yin Gu Lao and Tie Wu had been stuck at their current level for too long and could no longer bear it.

Without the help of pills, they would likely never break through in this lifetime. Thus, the two were the first to agree.

Yuan Yi thought for a long time, but ultimately refused Han Feng, though Han Feng had already anticipated this result.

In Yuan Yi's eyes, while the Imperial Extreme Pill was precious, it was not something he couldn't obtain through other channels, so the appeal was not particularly strong.

However, Su Mei also refused, which was somewhat unexpected for Han Feng.

Yin Gu Lao urged Su Mei, "Sect Master Su, such an opportunity is rare. If you miss this, who knows when the next one will come."

Su Mei smiled and said, "I am still young, and I am not in such a rush for this pill, so I think I will pass and stay out of these muddy waters."

Han Feng didn't say much to Su Mei's response, simply offering a faint smile. He would just have to put in more effort later to convince her to join the operation.

Yin Gu Lao asked Han Feng, "When does the Medicine Emperor plan to act? We need to prepare."

Han Feng waved his hand and said, "The specific time has not been set yet; we must wait for movement from within Canaan Academy. However, I will notify you before we act."

Once everything was settled, the group began to chat, while Fan Lao's corpse had long since been cleared away by servants.

White Fang looked at the now-empty Blood Sect and licked his lips.

"The Blood Sect has so few people; I haven't had my fill of fun yet." With that, White Fang returned to the Xiao Sect.

As the banquet drew to a close, Han Feng dismissed all the other factions, leaving only Hai Bodong.

"Ice Emperor, I hope we have a pleasant cooperation. Please take good care of the pills; they are exceptionally precious. I will need the two sect masters to put in their best effort," Han Feng said with a smile.

"Rest assured, we will," Hai Bodong replied.
