Baili Zhen wanted to speak again, but Tan Ming stopped him.
Tan Ming knew that Huo Lian's main objective now was still the Longevity Pill Manual. Until he obtained it, he certainly would not concern himself with anything else.
Baili Zhen also calmed down and said nothing more for the moment.
Now that Huo Lian was here, there was no harm in asking him later.
"What arrogance. With so many people here, if there really are Longevity Pills, you want half for yourself?" Xuanyuan Xing said coldly.
"Would you dare refuse me?" Huo Lian laughed. "Still, this old man isn't that unreasonable. It seems you haven't obtained any Longevity Pills either, so hand over the text of the Longevity Pill Manual first. As for the Longevity Pill and the Longevity Chapter, this old man will study them and search for clues himself."
If there really were Longevity Pills and Huo Lian insisted on taking half, most of them would probably still compromise.
"The Imperial Remnant Manor obtained the Longevity Pill," Liu Tengfan said.
"What did you say?" Huo Lian's expression abruptly darkened as he stared at Liu Tengfan.
"Liu Tengfan, what nonsense are you spouting?" Xuanyuan Xing shouted. "What Longevity Pill?"
"Even if it wasn't a Longevity Pill, there are grounds to suspect it was," Leng Guhan said.
"Exactly. Nothing is certain yet," Wan Liukong said with a nod.
"What happened?" Huo Lian asked in some confusion.
Huo Lian did not believe that deciphering the Longevity Jade Slip this time could yield a Longevity Pill in addition to the Longevity Pill Manual. That seemed rather unlikely.
He could believe that they had found clues to the Longevity Pill.
But obtaining a Longevity Pill?
That was too far-fetched.
Xuanyuan Xing did not want to offend Huo Lian too badly either. After
