"In fact, my Xiao Clan has the ability to provide the old gentleman with the body of a Dou Zun expert."

Elder Yao was not surprised by this. He had already obtained the ninth-order essence, so what was a mere Dou Zun expert?

"What does Xiao Clan Leader mean by this?"

The Elder Yao was puzzled. In his understanding, the body of Dou Zun expert was already sufficient. He did not covet the Dou Sheng Body; that was just a dream!

"Has Medicine Venerable considered taking this a step further?" Xiao Zhan's lips curled into a strange smile.

"A further advancement?" Elder Yao was taken aback at first, then suddenly gasped. He was already at the Dou Zun Peak; if he were to advance another step, wouldn't he become Half-Saint, or perhaps...?

Dou Sheng!

Faced with such temptation, Elder Yao naturally could not ignore it.

Xiao Zhan continued:

"Eighth-Rank Peak or Ninth Grade Pill, ninth-level essence, and if you add the body of a Dou Sheng Expert, then it's not impossible for the old gentleman to advance to the Saint Realm by using the opportunity of refining a body, right?"

The Elder Yao was initially delighted, but then his mood sombered, and he said in a low voice, "How could the body of Dou Sheng Expert be so easily found?"

Dou Sheng Expert) is practically immortal unless they die a violent death on the spot. Finding the corpse of a Dou Sheng is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

"It might not work for others, but it might not work for Medicine Venerable," Xiao Zhan said confidently.

"Please explain in detail, Xiao Clan Leader!" Elder Yao instantly perked up. He carefully considered his own assets and really didn't think he had anything that could be worth the Dou Sheng Skeleton.

Even if he did have one, he wouldn't dare to switch! What if someone double-crossed him? Wouldn't he be doomed?

"Sir, you should know about the Langya Pavilion, right?"

"Langya Pavilion?"

Elder Yao's pupils contracted. He was very familiar with his neighbors, the neighbors of his Starfall Pavilion. The three little guys who founded Langya Pavilion were all terrifyingly promising!

"Of course I know that."

Xiao Zhan shook his head and smiled, "Old sir, you should know Langya Pavilion before your accident, right?"

"Judging from what Xiao Clan Leader said, could it be that some major changes have occurred in the Langya Pavilion?" Elder Yao asked.

Although he said that, he did not believe that Langya Pavilion could take off in just a few decades.

"Langya Pavilion has not just changed, it has been completely transformed."

"Since the return of the Langya Pavilion's Pavilion Master after his disappearance, the Langya Pavilion has now become another Super faction in the Central Plains, comparable to the Pill Tower and the Soul Hall."

"How is this possible?" the Elder Yao exclaimed in surprise.

Elder Yao was naturally aware of Xiao Han's disappearance back then, and he even sighed at the time. Now he's telling me that things are different now?

However, the truth left Elder Yao no choice but to believe it. Xiao Zhan then recounted the deeds of the Langya Pavilion Master, who had become Dou Sheng, destroyed Tian Ming, fought against the Soul Hall, and pacified Tian Huang.

The Elder Yao stood there, stunned, for a long time, without saying a word.

"The younger generation is truly formidable!" That was all the Elder Yao could utter in praise.

"What is the purpose of Xiao Clan Leader's mention of the Langya Pavilion to me?"

"Could it be that Langya Pavilion can provide us with the bodies of Dou Sheng Expert?" Elder Yao's heart ignited with hope. If it were Langya Pavilion, it wouldn't be impossible!

"That's right!" Xiao Zhan nodded in agreement.

"I may not be able to afford that price!" the Elder Yao said solemnly.

"No," Xiao Zhan shook his head and said.

"Sir, you can definitely afford it, or rather, you are the only one in the entire Fierce Qi Continent who can afford this price."

"What do I have that Langya Pavilion needs?" Elder Yao asked curiously.

With the strength of the Langya Pavilion, what can't they get if they want it? Why would they need an old man like him?

"Yi Huang, the Deputy Pavilion Master of the Langya Pavilion, has a personal disciple," Xiao Zhan said slowly. "That disciple possesses the Woeful Poison Body!"

"The Woeful Poison Body?" Elder Yao pondered, then suddenly realized, "Xiao Clan Leader is referring to the Poison Pill Condensation Method?"

"That's right!" Xiao Zhan looked at Elder Yao:

"Back then, the Deputy Pavilion Master personally went to the Pill Tower and eventually learned from one of the giants of the Pill Tower that the Medicine Venerable had a Poison Pill Condensation Method."

"Right now, Langya Pavilion is still searching the entire continent for the Poison Pill Condensation Method, and for news of you, Medicine Venerable!"

"Medicine Venerable, you should really thank your old friend from the Pill Tower!"

The Elder Yao felt somewhat uneasy. He had many old friends in the Pill Tower, but only one person might know that he possessed the Poison Pill Condensation Method.

"But Xiao Clan Leader, are you sure my Poison Pill Condensation Method is qualified to be exchanged for a Dou Sheng Body?" Elder Yao changed the subject and asked doubtfully.

Isn't this price a bit too high?

"Old sir, if back then, would you have been willing to exchange the corpse of a peak Dou Zun realm expert for Han Feng's life?" Xiao Zhan didn't answer, but instead asked this question.

The Elder Yao apocalypse paused for a moment. Han Feng was the source of his lifelong pain, and Xiao Zhan bringing up the past was like rubbing salt into the wound.

But Elder Yao understood Xiao Zhan's meaning, and he had to admit that if things hadn't turned out this way, he might have really been willing to do it.

That's how trading works; it's not so much about what you have, but more about what you want!

Clearly, Elder Yao possessed this bargaining chip in his deal with the Langya Pavilion.

In a sense, the Woeful Poison Body is indeed a constitution that leads to slow suicide, and the death will be horribly tragic.

His method was truly a lifesaver.

Although to outsiders, a Poison Pill Condensation Method with limited uses is far inferior to the Dou Sheng Body who can create a large number of powerful individuals.

But it would definitely be worth that price if placed in the Langya Pavilion.

In this way, Yao Elder Yao's body as a Dou Sheng Expert was secure, and Elder Yao was not worried about the other party going back on their word.

Since its establishment, Langya Pavilion has always been known for its upright conduct. To demolish its own facilities for the sake of a Poison Pill Condensation Method is clearly a case of losing more than it gains.

Even if the other party really might kill him to silence him, he could easily ask his old friend in Pill Tower to go for him, so he would be completely safe!

"So, according to Xiao Clan Leader, I will need to go to Central Plains before I can successfully refine my body?" Elder Yao said, coming back to his senses.

"That's right," Xiao Zhan comforted Elder Yao.

"Moreover, Yan Er still needs a lot of time to grow. If you want him to meet the conditions for refining a body for you, his cultivation level must be at least at the Dou Zun realm."

"I hope the old gentleman can be a little more patient."

This is cruel, but also extremely realistic. Xiao Yan's strength is the foundation of everything. Even if Xiao Yan worked himself to death, he probably couldn't harm a single bone in the Dou Sheng Body.

"So be it. I've waited all these years, a few more years won't make a difference."

The Elder Yao had come to terms with it. Now that Xiao Yan was growing up smoothly, he would return to Central Plains sooner or later, so there was no need to rush.

"This is the Ninth Order Magical Beast Essence. Please take good care of it, sir."

Then, Xiao Zhan handed Elder Yao a Jade Bottle and first opened a small opening.

Immediately, a terrifying pressure emanated from the Jade Bottle, and Xiao Yan, caught off guard, was instantly pressed to the ground.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhan protected him and put it away in time; otherwise, the residual force alone would have crushed Xiao Yan into a pile of minced meat.

Having narrowly escaped death, Xiao Yan stared in horror at the ordinary bottle.

The Elder Yao also changed slightly, his eyes burning with fervor. This kind of pressure was something he had never possessed even at his peak, and it was undoubtedly Ninth Order Magical Beast.

Xiao Zhan instructed, "Please, sir, do not open it, or the consequences will be severe."

Feeling he hadn't said enough, Xiao Zhan added a warning, "This Jade Bottle is a specially made storage container that can isolate pressure and detection."

If this is exposed, it will invite retaliation from that Magical Beast clan. Please be extremely careful!

"Thank you for the reminder, Xiao Clan Leader." The Elder Yao nodded solemnly.

The essence of this Magical Beast is so fresh that it must have been obtained not long ago. And there are only three races that possess Ninth Order Magical Beast, so the outcome is easy to guess.

If he dares to expose himself, he can forget about returning to Central Plains and restoring his strength; he can just sit and wait to die.

"The Bone Growing Blood Melting Pill will be given to Yan Er before he leaves Canaan Institute."

"Is there anything else you need to ask, sir?" Xiao Zhan asked.

"Many thanks to Xiao Clan Leader for his help, I am deeply grateful!"

"Then it's your turn, Yan Er." Xiao Zhan turned his gaze to Xiao Yan.
