Providing Pills to Help the Xiao Clan Rise Rapidly!

Liu Xi had even kowtowed until his forehead split open and blood flowed out. Had he known this would happen, he would never have gone against the Xiao Clan.

"Xiao Tian, you and I are both alchemists. For the Alchemist Association's sake, can you spare me?"

Xiao Tian struck out with his palm without hesitation. Liu Xi was no good person.

He had helped the Jia Lie Clan deal with the Xiao Clan plenty of times in Wutan City. What use was such an ant?

Bang!

With a simple move, Liu Xi was sent flying. He crashed to the ground, dying with his eyes still open.

Xiao Yan swallowed hard. His eldest brother had not given the man even the slightest chance.

Medicine Elder said from within the ring, "Brat, your eldest brother is quite decisive. Not bad—he's got a bit of your master's youthful style."

Still, such an ant was not even worthy of Xiao Tian taking action. He had merely dealt with him in passing.

At this moment, all the Jia Lie Clan guards had been wiped out!

Outside the gates, the people of Wutan City were all discussing it.

"That Xiao Tian of the Xiao Clan is truly ruthless. He wiped out the Jia Lie Clan outright."

"Yeah, even that alchemist Liu Xi died in there."

"What? Wasn't he from the Alchemist Association?"

"Only a first-tier alchemist. They say Xiao Tian is a sixth-tier alchemist!"

The onlookers were all eagerly watching the spectacle. This was the hottest topic in Wutan City lately. They now knew that the Xiao Clan was no longer a soft target—anyone who dared provoke them was doomed.

By the time Xiao Zhan arrived with several elders, they found that the Jia Lie Clan had already been completely destroyed.

Xiao Tian had even reduced all the buildings to rubble with a single palm strike.

The courtyard was a complete mess!

Shock appeared on Xiao Zhan's face. The Jia Lie Clan had actually been utterly annihilated!

When Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan saw Xiao Zhan arrive, they hurried forward.

"Father, why are you here?"

Xiao Zhan stammered, "Tian'er, was this your doing?"

Seeing this scene had caught him somewhat off guard.

Xiao Tian said slowly, "I know Father is worried, but I did not bully the weak. The Jia Lie Clan colluded with the Cloud Mist Sect to attack Fourth Brother."

Xiao Zhan's eyes widened at those words. Naturally, he trusted Xiao Tian. His son would never act without reason.

"So that's how it is. As expected, the Cloud Mist Sect wants to move against our Xiao Clan."

"Sigh, the Cloud Mist Sect is the strongest force in the entire Jia Ma Empire."

The Xiao Clan elders behind him felt their hearts sink as well.

If the Cloud Mist Sect truly acted directly, their Xiao Clan would be unable to withstand it.

Seeing their concern, Xiao Tian said slowly, "Father, since the Cloud Mist Sect colluded with the Jia Lie Clan, it is obvious they have not yet decided to strike directly at our Xiao Clan."

Xiao Zhan nodded. "That's right. After the broken engagement, many people know about it now. If the Cloud Mist Sect takes the initiative to attack, people will certainly see it as retaliation against the Xiao Clan."

"If that happens, everyone will only say that the Cloud Mist Sect bullies others with its power, giving them something to criticize."

"Still, Tian'er, if we truly anger the Cloud Mist Sect, they may no longer care about such things," Xiao Zhan analyzed.

Xiao Tian smiled. "Father, there is no need to worry about that."

"Leave everything to me!"

"The Cloud Mist Sect is merely courting death."

"These are some second-, third-, fourth-, and fifth-tier medicinal pills, as well as sixth-tier pills."

As he spoke, a storage ring appeared in Xiao Tian's hand.

Xiao Zhan froze, while the Xiao Clan elders behind him all gaped in shock. Young Master, are you running a wholesale pill business? So many?

They had lived in Wutan City for so long, yet they had never seen so many high-grade medicinal pills. Today had truly opened their eyes.

"Tian'er, this is...!" Xiao Zhan could not calm down for a long while. He even thought that Xiao Tian should keep these things for his own cultivation. Why take them out?

"Father, the Xiao Clan's overall strength is still too weak. These pills are merely some of my previous savings, to be used to nurture the Xiao Clan's disciples."

"I said before that when I returned this time, I would make the Xiao Clan rise completely."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan's eyes revealed undisguised pride. He smiled faintly. "Then Father will accept them. Rest assured, the Xiao Clan will never become a burden to you."

"Now, only those with sufficient strength can survive on the Dou Qi Continent."

Xiao Tian grinned. "Father, take them."

"From this day onward, no one will be able to bully our Xiao Clan!"

The Xiao Clan elders were thrilled beyond measure. Their Xiao Clan was truly fortunate to have such a young master. At last, they had someone to rely on.

With these medicinal pills, why would the Xiao Clan worry about being unable to rise?

Most importantly, they had such an alchemist.

Their hearts were now filled with pride.

Very soon, the news spread throughout Wutan City. It was talked about in every street and alley: A son should be like Xiao Tian—bringing glory to his ancestors!

Even the Xiao Clan guards standing at the gates felt immensely proud!

Everyone passing by would take the initiative to greet them. This was the Xiao Clan of Wutan City now.

Xiao Tian narrowed his eyes. It seemed it was time to settle the score with the Cloud Mist Sect!

Meanwhile.

Cloud Mist Sect.

Inside the council hall, Yun Leng stood with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth as he waited for news.

"First Elder!"

A voice came from outside. A disciple entered, his face full of shock.

"Speak. Has Xiao Yan been captured?" Yun Leng asked.

"No. The elder we sent out is dead!"

"Xiao Yan was not captured either. According to the latest news, Xiao Tian even led Xiao Yan to wipe out the Jia Lie Clan in Wutan City!"

"The Xiao Clan is now the dominant power in Wutan City, and all other forces have submitted to them."

Upon hearing this, a strange glint flashed through Yun Leng's eyes as he slammed his palm onto the table!

"How could this happen?"

"Didn't I tell them to strike decisively at Xiao Yan while Xiao Tian was away?"

The other elders also rose to their feet. "First Elder, Xiao Tian killed members of our Cloud Mist Sect. We absolutely cannot let him go."

"That's right. When has our Cloud Mist Sect ever been so weak?"

"Could Xiao Tian come to our Cloud Mist Sect to cause trouble?"

Yun Leng slowly sat down, narrowing his eyes. "I refuse to believe he would dare come to the Cloud Mist Sect."

"If he does dare come, I will make sure he never returns."

As the news spread, Xiao Tian's great name reached every corner of the Jia Ma Empire.

Nalan Clan.

Nalan Jie was greatly shocked upon receiving the news. He had only just suppressed the Searing Poison in his body, and his aura had eased somewhat.

"Xiao Yan was attacked by assassins. Could this have been the Cloud Mist Sect's doing?"

"This has become a major matter."

"Quick, call Yanran here."

Nalan Yanran, who had been cultivating, was summoned. Graceful and slender, dressed in yellow with a high ponytail, she raised her delicate hand and pushed open the door.

Seeing Nalan Jie sitting on the bed, she stepped forward. "Grandfather, are you feeling better?"

"Yanran, I just received news that Xiao Yan was attacked by a group of assassins. Do you know whether this was the Cloud Mist Sect's doing?" Nalan Jie asked directly.

Anyone with sense could see that the Cloud Mist Sect was deeply involved in this.

Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes widened. "Grandfather, our Cloud Mist Sect is the sacred land of all cultivators in the Jia Ma Empire."

"I do not believe this is something our Cloud Mist Sect could do."

"My teacher would never issue such an order!"

"Cough, cough." Hearing this, Nalan Jie raised a hand and coughed. "If so, then good. Grandfather does not wish for anything to happen between the Xiao Clan and the Cloud Mist Sect."

"Otherwise, when Grandfather is gone, I will have no way to answer to Brother Xiao Lin."

"By the way, ask around as well. You hold some status in the Cloud Mist Sect now, so find out exactly what happened. Was it truly the Cloud Mist Sect that acted?"

"If it was, you must mediate between them."

Nalan Yanran nodded. "All right. But Grandfather, the Cloud Mist Sect would definitely never do such a thing."

Afterward, Nalan Yanran withdrew.
