Seeing Through the Ruse

Before Bai Anmin could even say anything, he was thrown into the Pill Furnace.

The next moment, I felt as if my whole body was on fire, and the blood flowing out of me was also on fire.

Xiao Xiao flames began to burn, fueled by the blood in his body, following the path of the wound.

Bai Anmin opened his mouth and let out a shrill scream.

Fang Zelin heard the shouts through the Pill Furnace and frowned slightly.

"How can the Devil Race be so spineless? In our Great Qian Dynasty, there was a female demon who endured decades of refinement in the Pill Furnace for her lover, and when she went to him, she didn't even hear him cry out."

"The demoness willingly entered the Pill Furnace for her lover?"

Upon hearing this, Yunzi turned around in surprise and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Well, that female demon was quite devoted; she fell in love with a fellow Daoist, but because of her greed for a sliver of Human Race Karmic Fortune, she ended up resorting to this method."

"It's all for the sake of extracting a sliver of Human Race Karmic Fortune, so that I can be with my lover forever."

At this point, Fang Zelin shook his head, a hint of emotion on his face.

As he spoke, he walked out of the Pill Hall.

This guy has already been thrown into the Pill Furnace, and another fellow Daoist has placed a seal on him.

Even when the opponent was at their peak, they couldn't get out, let alone now.

After seeing that there were no problems, Daoist Master Fuqing and the others immediately went out, intending to find two disciples to guard the place properly.

To avoid any accidents.

By the time the cultivators arrived outside the Pill Hall, Yunzi had already heard most of what Fang Zelin had said.

After listening, a touch of emotion appeared on his face.

"It seems this succubus was indeed sincere."

After saying that, he couldn't help but look back once more, and then shook his head.

"Compared to this, this Demonic Dao cultivator is truly pathetic."

"Summon two disciples to guard the Pill Hall. A Demonic Dao cultivator is sealed inside; do not let anything happen."

Fang Zelin paused slightly after listening to what his two fellow Daoists were saying, as he sensed something was amiss.

"Fellow Daoist, you just said that these Demonic Dao cultivators are far too despicable?"

"Yes, isn't that the case when you compare them like this?"

Yunzi asked curiously upon hearing this.

Fang Zelin's face darkened. "Logically speaking, this guy's cultivation is not low. Someone who dares to come here to steal our fortune should not be so incompetent."

"This guy's putting on an act for us, so he can find a chance to escape!"

Fang Zelin suddenly realized something.

Just now, the other party clearly heard that these cultivators would be going to see off Fellow Daoist Guangchengzi tomorrow.

After that, she repeatedly displayed a rather weak appearance, and when she was thrown into the Pill Furnace, she performed even more miserably.

In this situation, they all thought that this guy was no longer a threat.

By tomorrow, all the cultivators will have left, leaving only a few disciples to guard the place. There is a good chance the enemy will escape.

Upon realizing this, Fang Zelin finally understood why things had turned out this way.

Those who follow the Demonic Dao are not likely to be so weak.

The opponent is highly skilled; how could they be so easily defeated?

The only explanation is that the other party did this on purpose!

"So cunning! I almost fell for their trick!"

Daoist Master Fuqing realized what was happening upon hearing this.

He had thought of everything Fang Zelin had just been thinking about.

The other side must be prepared to find a chance to escape tomorrow.

Thinking this through, he immediately called his two disciples to his side and gave them some earnest instructions.

He warned his disciples that they must not break the seal.

As long as the seal remains intact, no matter how cunning the opponent is, they cannot escape.

Listening to what Daoist Master Fuqing said, Fang Zelin thought for a moment and added, "By the way, if the other party is faking death, or using other methods to trick you into coming forward, you don't need to pay any attention to it."

"This guy is a member of the Demonic Dao. Even if he died in the Pill Furnace, let him die. There's no need to worry about him."

"Yes, I understand!"

Upon hearing Fang Zelin's words, the two disciples immediately responded.

Listening to what my master and seniors said, the Demonic Dao cultivators here are extremely cunning, so we must be very careful.

Thinking about this, they felt the pressure increase and secretly made up their minds.

Just as this Senior Fang said, no matter what kind of information the other party uses to lure them in, or whether they pretend to be dead or something, they will not pay any attention to it.

Even if the other person is really dead, then let them die inside.

Daoist Master Fuqing was taken aback by Fang Zelin's words.

This Devil Race must have a lot of useful information to share.

Are we just going to let them die inside like this?

After thinking for a moment, Daoist Master Fuqing shook his head.

Very well, let it be as this fellow Daoist said, let him die in this Alchemy Chamber.

Besides, they are beings of the Demonic Dao; how could they possibly die so easily in here?

Having pondered this point, he said no more.

Under their watchful eyes, the two disciples then walked towards the Alchemy Chamber.

After the two disciples entered the Alchemy Chamber, they sat down a little further away.

At this moment, Bai Anmin body was completely covered in flames, could see the two disciples outside through the flames.

As for the other cultivators with higher levels of cultivation, none of them were present.

According to what he had overheard, these guys were supposed to be seeing off the ascension-bound cultivator tomorrow.

So, it seems that only these two disciples will be guarding this place tomorrow.

If anything unexpected happened, they wouldn't have time to consult the old Daoist priest.

As he pondered this, Bai Anmin couldn't help but let a slight smile twitch at the corner of his lips.

That's wonderful!

It seems that his acting earlier had indeed been effective.

All he needs to do now is wait until these old Daoist priests leave tomorrow, then he can take the opportunity to escape.

As for how to deceive these two scoundrels, he had already figured it out.

For example, he could trick two guys by saying he knows about the cultivator's luck and is willing to tell them.

Alternatively, one could feign being unable to withstand the tempering of the alchemical fire, appearing as if about to die.

Or perhaps, they had captured a few people and hidden them in some mountains to deceive them.

In short, they have many tricks up their sleeves; I don't believe these two guys won't fall for it!

After thinking it over, Bai Anmin continued to scream shrilly, this time even more intensely than before.

In order to convince these two minor Daoists, he even gave up some resistance and completely released a part of his body to be tempered by the alchemical fire.

In an instant, wisps of black energy rose continuously as the energy was being refined.
