What Can He, a Heavenly Flame, Cooperate with Me, a Pill, on?

This time coming to Pill Tower,

Nihility Devouring Flame came behind Hun Tiandi's back,

if he made a move against Pill Tower, then this matter would go against Nihility Devouring Flame's original intention and did not align with his interests.

Furthermore,

after enduring the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's self-detonation and devouring its origin, Nihility Devouring Flame's own state was not good.

The one who came to Pill Tower was not Nihility Devouring Flame's true body,

so rashly making a move against Pill Tower,

the result might not be what he imagined,

and it would also expose his own forces, making those Emperor Clans aware and on guard.

On the contrary,

by leaving Pill Tower alone, Nihility Devouring Flame might obtain unexpected gains...

As for the Three Thousand Burning Flame possessed by Pill Tower,

to be honest,

in this world, apart from the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, which was worthy of him making a move,

the rest of the Heavenly Flames,

Nihility Devouring Flame really looked down on them!

Pill Tower,

as Nihility Devouring Flame departed, that chilly, violent aura also dissipated accordingly,

the vault of heaven covered by dust and dark clouds gradually cleared,

though the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's strike had ruined a major part of Pill Territory.

However, Pill Territory,

after all, was an independent space opened up by a Dou Saint powerhouse,

and at the level of a six-star Dou Saint,

as long as Pill Tower Ancestor Mu Tong had not fallen, Pill Territory did not exist in the physical sense of destruction,

these shattered lands and fractured realms,

after the aftermath of the destruction dissipated,

would slowly repair themselves,

only that relying on Pill Territory's own restoration required an extremely long time.

"Ancestor!"

Xuan Kongzi, Tianleizi, and Xuanyi came before Mu Tong, saying with utmost respect,

"What is the meaning of all this?"

Mu Tong looked at the three and calmly asked,

the Great Elder had fallen,

and less than one-tenth of Pill Territory survived,

the development of matters exceeded Xuan Kongzi's expectations,

at this moment,

Xuan Kongzi dared not conceal the slightest bit, telling Mu Tong everything from the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's first visit to Pill Territory to this second staging of a comeback,

reporting in meticulous detail.

Initially,

Mu Tong also thought that the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had come to Pill Tower for the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

Now it seemed,

matters were even more complicated than he thought,

especially when Mu Tong heard that the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had named Xuan Kongzi's disciple to be his fiancée, his face furthermore displayed a difficulty in concealing his bewilderment.

"Cao Ying..."

"She is a disciple this junior has newly recruited, right here in Pill Territory."

Xuan Kongzi hurriedly explained,

while speaking,

Xuan Kongzi had someone bring Cao Ying over.

"Master... Uncle Tianleizi, Uncle Xuanyi..."

Cao Ying timidly looked at Xuan Kongzi, along with the familiar Tianleizi and Xuanyi, and cried out,

Then,

Cao Ying shifted her gaze away and looked at Pill Tower Ancestor, whom even her master deeply revered.

Although in her heart she was very curious about Pill Tower Ancestor's appearance as a young shepherd boy,

yet Cao Ying knew,

that this person was the true stabilizing force of the Pill Tower; even the Cao Family was nothing more than a lonely boat adrift on the sea before him...

"Cao Ying greets Ancestor!"

Mu Tong followed the sound and looked over at the young girl before him.

Her long hair was dark, her skin fair, and her facial features youthful yet delicate.

There was nothing particularly extraordinary about her.

If she had to be given credit for something...

this Cao Ying's talent in alchemy was quite commendable, no wonder she could be valued by Xuan Kongzi.

"Have you seen the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame before?"

Mu Tong looked at Cao Ying and asked.

"Uh..."

Cao Ying was somewhat at a loss for words, lowering her head as she wondered what to say.

"I mean your fiancé, the one who self-destructed earlier!"

Mu Tong explained.

"No!"

Cao Ying shook her head with certainty and said,

"This disciple has never seen him before, and this time in the Pill Territory was the first time."

Hearing this,

the confusion in Mu Tong's eyes grew even deeper.

He had originally wanted to ask the Cao Family, but on second thought, if the Cao Family could have a connection to the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame,

then the Central Plains wouldn't be ruled by One Hall, One Tower,

it would be One Hall, One Tower, and One Cao!

"Ancestor, is Cao Ying in any danger?"

Seeing that the Ancestor's expression was grave and he remained silent, Xuan Kongzi asked with some worry.

"No."

Mu Tong's amber gaze turned back to Cao Ying.

With considerable appreciation, he said,

"This little girl is not bad, her future is boundless!"

Hearing this,

Xuan Kongzi froze in place, his mind a complete chaos.

The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had killed the Great Elder,

destroyed most of the Pill Territory,

and yet Cao Ying, as the fiancée of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, had received praise from the Ancestor that her future was boundless?!

Xuan Kongzi truly could not make sense of this anymore...

"Cao Ying thanks Ancestor for the praise!"

Cao Ying mustered up her courage and spoke in a crisp voice.

She felt that,

the Ancestor wasn't all that frightening after all, and was even a little cute!

"Ancestor, now that the Great Elder has fallen, the Pill Territory is mostly ruined, and the Star Region is completely destroyed, what should we do next?"

Xuan Kongzi suppressed his lingering doubts and looked to Mu Tong for instructions.

Mu Tong waved a hand and said,

"These troubles amount to nothing. Old Monster Lin was greedy himself, and this deity had warned him long ago. It was his failure to remember, and suffering this fate now is only bringing it upon himself!"

"The Pill Territory will be sealed off for the time being, and you two will take charge of starting the repairs for it. As for the Star Region..."

At this point,

Mu Tong raised his head to look up at the vault of heaven, which had completely vanished as endless Star Power cascaded down from the firmament.

He saw it,

Hidden within the fractured folded space between Pill Territory and the Star Region, the Three Thousand Burning Flame trembled.

"You needn't worry about the Three Thousand Burning Flame; this seat has his own plans!"

"Yes! We obey the Patriarch's decree!"

Xuan Kongzi, Tianleizi, and Xuanyi bowed toward Mu Tong and said,

Seeing this,

Mu Tong did not linger. Treading into the void, ripples spread beneath his feet,

And as Mu Tong took a single step,

his body transformed into a black streak and vanished directly before everyone.

"Master... is my fiancé dead?"

As the Pill Tower Ancestor left,

Cao Ying finally mustered the courage to ask,

Hearing this,

Xuan Kongzi could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He looked at Cao Ying and said earnestly,

"That being is ranked third on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. Even if all of us died, that person wouldn't!"

"Cao Ying!"

Xuan Kongzi looked at Cao Ying with a solemn expression,

"Disciple is here," Cao Ying replied timidly,

"Master doesn't know what you're thinking, but forget about your marriage to the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame..."

"A being like that is not something we can get involved with!"

Xuan Kongzi advised,

"Oh... disciple will remember."

Cao Ying pouted somewhat reluctantly,

and thought with internal dissatisfaction:

He was the one who wanted to be engaged to me; it wasn't like I begged him for an engagement...

Why should I have to forget it?!

Little Pill Tower,

Mu Tong returned to the depths of the Little Pill Tower,

and only then opened his right hand, which had been clenched tightly the entire time.

As he unfolded his palm,

an illusory white lotus slowly bloomed in his palm, finally outlining two simplified characters.

[Cooperation!]

Aside from these two characters,

there was also a set of coordinates that seemed to be somewhere in Central Plains!

"Cooperation?"

Looking at the text materializing before him, Mu Tong could not help but narrow his eyes slightly,

The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame wanted to cooperate?

He was a Heavenly Flame; what could he cooperate with me, a pill, for?!

Although he was unclear of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's intentions,

Mu Tong still decided

to make a trip to the location of the coordinates.

After all,

the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had destroyed most of his Pill Territory, so he ultimately still needed to go demand an explanation.

Especially considering the gaze Nihility Devouring Flame had cast before leaving,

Mu Tong always felt that this matter would not just end like this!

After a moment of thought,

Mu Tong waved his hand, tearing open a certain space where the annihilated Star Region overlapped with Pill Territory.

The pressure of a Six-Star Dou Saint leaked outward,

and Mu Tong effortlessly dragged out the origin of the Three Thousand Burning Flame hidden within.

Looking at the purple astral flames rising in his palm,

having finished all this,

Mu Tong tore open a passage connecting to the outside world, and his entire figure plunged into it, quietly leaving Pill Territory...
