The Deal Is Complete, Returning with the Spoils

Wang Chen took Han Feng's Nethersea Ring and began to examine the treasures inside.

Although the Nethersea Ring is magical, Han Feng has already passed away, and the Soul Imprint left behind is simply not enough to stop Wang Chen.

After all, Wang Chen himself was Seventh-Grade Alchemist certified by the system.

A soul at the Peak Spirit Realm can easily deal with a mere Storage Ring.

In an instant, the Nethersea Ring was erased and refined by Wang Chen, becoming his own.

Before he could strengthen it, he began to examine the treasures in his Storage Ring.

As the only Medicine Emperor in the Black-Corner Region, Han Feng had accumulated quite a lot of wealth.

There are quite a few various elixirs and resources.

There are also various Dou Technique and cultivation methods, as well as some pill formulas.

Even the gold coins were piled up into several small mountains.

However, Wang Chen wasn't overly excited about these things.

The only things that would be useful to him are medicinal herbs.

As for pills, how could Han Feng's alchemy skills compare to Wang Chen's?

After a careful inspection, Wang Chen did not continue.

He simply transferred all the unused items to his Storage Ring, which he had enhanced twice.

He plans to use this Nethersea Ring from now on.

Even before it's been enhanced, the space inside is not much smaller than the Storage Ring Wang Chen is currently using.

After this enhancement, it'll take off!

Without wasting any time, he quickly used his Golden Finger ability to enhance the Nethersea Ring twice.

After being enhanced, the space inside the Nethersea Ring became larger.

At the same time, their own abilities have become more powerful.

Not only is it more robust, but its unique defensive capabilities have also been multiplied.

However, this ability was basically of little use to Wang Chen.

After all, the abilities inherent in the Nethersea Ring are insignificant compared to the enemies who can break through various high-level Heavenly Demon Puppet and come to his side.

However, Wang Chen was still very satisfied with the much larger storage space.

After tidying everything up, Wang Chen took out Venerable Elder Liu's Storage Ring.

Although Venerable Elder Liu is stronger than Han Feng, the difficulty of erasing and refining him is not as great as that of the Nethersea Ring.

After all, Venerable Elder Liu is not Alchemist, and special high-level Storage Ring are not something that just anyone can afford.

Soon, the image of Venerable Elder Liu's Storage Ring appeared in Wang Chen's mind.

"Grass!"

"This Dou Zun is way too poor!"

After sensing it for a moment, Wang Chen couldn't help but curse.

He's supposed to be a Dou Zun, yet he's so poor.

Even if they can't compare to Han Feng, Alchemist, they shouldn't be this poor.

Inside the entire Storage Ring, besides a few Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills, there was only a small amount of recovery pills.

Besides that, there's nothing else.

However, since things had come to this point, Wang Chen could do nothing but curse and swear.

After all, before the material is erased and refined, no one can detect what's inside someone else's Storage Ring.

After tidying up his things, Wang Chen sat cross-legged, waiting to complete the transaction with Yao Lao.

After sitting cross-legged for a while, Wang Chen was still a little angry, so he took out Venerable Elder Liu's soul from his Storage Ring.

"Aaaaaah!!"

"That feels better."

After being burned by the special Beast Flame, Wang Chen's mood improved considerably.

"Old ghost, why is your Storage Ring so poor?"

Hearing Wang Chen's question, Venerable Elder Liu felt very aggrieved.

"I..."

Even if I cursed a thousand times in my heart, I still had to tell the truth.

Upon hearing the reason, Wang Chen also had a lot to say.

It turns out that Venerable Elder Liu wasn't always this poor; after all, he was a mid-level member of the Soul Hall.

However, he had just broken through to the Dou Zun and become a Venerable Elder of the Soul Hall.

All the resources we had accumulated in the past were used up during this breakthrough.

They even pre-borrowed some resources.

Otherwise, why would a Dou Zun like him help Han Feng in the Northwestern Continent?

We are just too poor.

Based on the principle that even a mosquito's leg is meat, that's why he came to cause trouble for the Jia Nan Academy.

But to everyone's surprise, they ran into Wang Chen, a cheat code, and were instantly killed by him.

Not only did they fail to gain any points or resources, they also lost their lives.

It was a complete loss.

After learning the truth, Wang Chen stopped worrying and quietly waited for the White Swan to continue its journey.

After they were almost at the outskirts of Wutan City, Wang Chen had the White Swan land.

After all, he came back this time to complete his deal with the Yao Lao.

He didn't want to expose himself and waste time.

After putting away the White Swan, Wang Chen used his own strength to travel.

Having already reached the outskirts of Wutan City, with his Dou Zong strength, entering the Xiao Clan and finding Xiao Yan would be quite easy.

Wang Chen traveled quietly, without revealing his presence.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

When they arrived at the back mountain of the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yan was diligently cultivating.

It's clear that Nalan Yanran's annulment of the engagement was a huge blow to this proud and arrogant transmigrator.

However, having motivation is a good thing.

With such diligence and his natural talent, it might not be long before Xiao Yan is able to help him with some small tasks.

After briefly sensing the surroundings and confirming that there were no other presences, Wang Chen stopped hiding and stepped out.

"Yao Lao, it's been a long time."

Wang Chen also greeted him politely.

"You're back so soon?"

The Yao Lao was quite surprised to see that Wang Chen had returned so quickly.

After all, although Wang Chen said those polite words, he had only been gone for a short time.

"Once the work is done, I'll naturally come earlier."

Without wasting any words, Wang Chen directly took Han Feng out of his Storage Ring.

"This is exactly what Yao Lao needs."

A corpse and a soul, both of them were Han Feng.

Looking at what Wang Chen had taken out, Yao Lao's heart was filled with complex emotions.

It was both exhilarating and heartbreaking.

Regardless of the circumstances, Han Feng is still his apprentice.

He was raised like a son back then.

All the resources and career advancement opportunities were arranged perfectly.

As long as you proceed steadily and peacefully, becoming a Dou Zun is a certainty.

But to his utter surprise, this apprentice whom he had raised like a son would betray him.

This kind of blow is no ordinary one.

Otherwise, after regaining consciousness, he wouldn't have spent so much time specifically testing Huohuo's character.

Now that his treacherous disciple has appeared before him, his feelings are naturally complex beyond words.

Seeing the somewhat silent Yao Lao, Wang Chen didn't say anything more.

After all, you can't understand something like this unless you've experienced it firsthand.

He silently took out the Sea Heart Flame and placed it on the ground, without urging anyone to speak.

"Phew~~"

Looking at the various items on the ground, the Yao Lao let out a deep breath, feeling slightly relieved.

Thank you.

The Yao Lao also thanked Wang Chen very solemnly.

"This was originally a deal between us."

Everyone benefits; there's no need for anyone to thank anyone else.

"Our initial transaction can now be considered officially completed."

Seeing that the Yao Lao seemed more relaxed, Wang Chen smiled and said.

After exchanging a few brief words, Wang Chen got up and left.

His return this time was to hand over the previous bargaining chips to Yao Lao and complete the initial transaction.

Now that the matter is settled, he naturally has no interest in wasting any more time.

Although Huohuo is exceptionally talented, she still needs to lay a solid foundation before she can truly take off.

Wang Chen had no interest in staying at the Xiao Clan to watch these events.

In any case, the cultivation resources he provided for Huohuo were already more than enough.

It's much better than the original story.

Cultivation can no longer be continued by borrowing money to sell medicine.

This is not just Wang Chen providing a cultivation gift package.

Even the Xiao Clan provided Xiao Yan with a significant amount of resources.

After all, no matter what, Xiao Yan also has the blood of the Xiao Clan flowing through his veins.

Even if the elders were very dissatisfied with Xiao Zhan, they wouldn't cause trouble over this.

Wang Chen left quickly, and thanks to his formidable strength, no one noticed.

He came quietly, and he left quietly.

It didn't cause any ripples.

After leaving Wutan City, Wang Chen summoned the White Swan and headed towards the Jia Nan Academy.

While Wang Chen was rushing to the Jia Nan Academy, the Jia Nan Academy's staff were already officially clearing out the various legacies left behind by Han Feng.

Han Feng's title of "Medicine Emperor" is not just for show.

The fact that he was able to build Feng City from scratch speaks volumes about his strength and status in the Black-Corner Region.

The area surrounding Feng City is mostly populated by forces that are subordinate to Han Feng.

This is understandable, since none of them had pledged allegiance to him; how could Han Feng allow those forces to remain around him?

The experts from these forces were basically wiped out by Wang Chen and his group.

They are naturally no match for the Jia Nan Academy now.

All kinds of hard currency, such as medicines, Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills, and Magic Core, were collected and taken away.

At the same time, various real estate properties, such as medicinal plants, are also being assessed and valued.

This will facilitate subsequent sale to other forces in the Black-Corner Region.

Jia Nan Academy had no interest in Feng City, this enclave.

The two sides are relatively far apart, and there are other forces in between them.

To manage this enclave effectively, we need to bring in more staff from the academy.

This is completely unnecessary.

After all, the main goal of the Jia Nan Academy is not to dominate the Black-Corner Region.

Instead, it trains various types of students.

If they really wanted to dominate the Black-Corner Region, they could have done it back when they were the first dean.

There was no need to wait until now.

Therefore, the natural course of action for Feng City was to trade it for various necessary financial resources.

As for whether any powerful entity will come to buy it, there's absolutely no need to worry about that.

After all, the position of the faction Han Feng belongs to is quite good.

Buying it is a steal.

Moreover, in this world where strength reigns supreme, Jia Nan Academy, the uncrowned king of the Black-Corner Region, has spoken. Are we not going to give them face?

Using the speed of White Swan, Wang Chen quickly returned to the Jia Nan Academy.

At this time, Jia Nan Academy was also quite lively.

After all, the destruction of such a powerful force as Feng City was quite remarkable.

At the beginning of the raid, the number of people was small, and the situation was not exposed.

But when it comes to finishing up and organizing resources, things are different.

A large number of people were reassigned to other tasks.

It's completely impossible to hide the information.

Such a momentous event also brought great pride to the students of the Jia Nan Academy.

However, Wang Chen was not interested in any of these things.

After returning to the Jia Nan Academy, he went directly to find Queen Medusa and her companions.

Upon learning that they were all in seclusion for cultivation, Wang Chen also briefly went into seclusion for cultivation.

They await Great Elder Su Qian's return to the academy to divide the profits from this event.

At the same time, he also had something to discuss with Great Elder Su Qian.

However, organizing the resources from various places would still take some time, so Wang Chen wasn't in a hurry and began to cultivate in seclusion.

He hasn't had much time to properly cultivate lately.

Now that we have time, we certainly can't waste it.

Time passed slowly as Wang Chen secluded himself for cultivation.

This time, Wang Chen went into seclusion for ten days.

When he emerged from seclusion, he also learned that Great Elder Su Qian had returned to the academy.

However, because he was still in seclusion, the Great Elder did not disturb him at that time.

They simply sorted out the resources that should be allocated to Wang Chen.

After taking the Storage Ring that the Great Elder had specially left behind, Wang Chen also sensed the contents of it.

"Not bad, not bad."

"It was much better than the last time."

Sensing the contents of the Storage Ring, Wang Chen sighed.

Most of the items here are medicinal herbs, Exotic Metal, and Magic Core; there are almost no elixirs or similar items.

It was clearly chosen specifically by Great Elder Su Qian.

Wang Chen was very satisfied with the result.

After all, these things were far more useful to him than any elixir.

For the Jia Nan Academy, various elixirs can also better train its students.

Everyone was very satisfied; it was a win-win situation.

After organizing and transferring the resources, Wang Chen did not continue his seclusion, but instead headed towards the Inner Academy of the Jia Nan Academy.

As for Queen Medusa and the others, they were still in seclusion cultivating, and Wang Chen did not disturb them.

It wouldn't be too late to greet Queen Medusa and the others after he's finished his last task.

Without hesitation, Wang Chen summoned the White Swan and headed towards the Inner Academy.

Anyway, he knew the location of the Inner Academy and how to get in and out, so he didn't need any other elders to lead the way.

Thanks to the speed of the White Swan, no magical beasts were able to cause him any trouble along the way.

They arrived with a smooth and uninterrupted journey.

After entering the Inner Academy, Wang Chen headed straight for Great Elder Su Qian's study.

"Great Elder."

Upon entering the study, Wang Chen immediately bowed and greeted the guests.

"Oh, Xiao Chen, you're out of seclusion."

Great Elder Su Qian was pleasantly surprised to see Wang Chen arrive.

"Good, I have completed this period of seclusion."

I came to see you today because I have something to discuss with you.

"Is there anything you're dissatisfied with regarding the resources from last time?"

The college can also make changes if there are other needs.

Upon hearing Wang Chen's words, Great Elder Su Qian assumed that Wang Chen was dissatisfied with the previous profits, so he spoke up.

Jia Nan Academy also made a fortune in the last siege against Han Feng's forces.

Not only did they collect and organize all the resources from those forces, but they also sold off their real estate.

Otherwise, Wang Chen wouldn't have gotten so much for himself.
