Devouring The Heavens

Chapter 266 Preparedness

Chapter 266: Preparedness

“The Five Elements Jade is a collection of gold, wood, water, fire, earth sky, all refined into a jade. It’s been refined by a highly skilled person for thirty-three years. In addition, it has been set to correspond to any sort of prohibition created by the five elements. If used properly, it can cover the field with the Qi of the five elements. It is the best choice for you. “

“Well, in terms of the quality of the top rank heaven class instruments, this Five Elements Jade is quite good.” the pig commented.

Xuanyuan himself was very satisfied with the Five Elements Jade.

“The Wind Boots are unique artifacts, which were made from the skin of the wind dragon kin and refined using dragon blood day and night for 28 years. They have been engraved with several high-class prohibitions, and have survived the thunder disaster, and formed a shadow. They are also treasures that can be regarded as Xian class instruments. They are incredibly useful for defense, and they are the best instruments for escaping.” The five pieces of equipment carefully selected by Bai Youniang for Xuanyuan were extraordinary, and every one of them won Xuanyuan’s heart.

“Ha ha! Boy, if you want to get married, then she is the best choice.” The pig laughed recklessly, Bai Youniang blushed when she heard this.

Xuanyuan rolled his eyes at the pig, pretending to hear nothing. “How much?” Xuanyuan asked Bai Youniang.

“No, you don’t have to pay me. They can be seen as gifts; the only payment I will take is the promise that you will live a good life and get rid of the Heart-Devouring Bug. Otherwise, I won’t spare you.” Bai Youniang said with a smile. She looked at the pig with admiration, which satisfied him. However, the pig decided not to annoy Xuanyuan, considering how he felt.

Xuanyuan shook his head, “I don’t like the feeling of unearned gifts; they have always made me uncomfortable. Even beggars need to walk and beg; please tell me your price.”

Bai Youniang looked at Xuanyuan

“Is it so difficult for you to accept a gift from the bottom of my heart? How can you compare it to begging?”

“It has nothing to do with your heart. You have done enough for me. No matter the relationship between husband and wife or between friends, it should be a two-way street, instead of one person receiving all the time. Do you understand?” Xuanyuan said.

“Give me 100 billion king coins then.” Bai Youniang shrugged her shoulders.

“Do you play me for a fool? On that day, a top rank heaven class instrument, which was going to enter the rank of xian class instruments, was auctioned off for 300 billion king coins. Whether a top rank heaven class instrument can enter into the rank of xian class instrument or not makes a big difference. The difference in price is tremendous. Although the auction will have the effect of raising the price, it is impossible that these instruments are only worth 100 billion king coins.” Xuanyuan looked at Bai Youniang, and then took out a trillion king coins from his ring. He couldn’t help but say, “Here are a trillion king coins. Take them.”

It surprised Bai Youniang. When did Xuanyuan have so much money? Even ordinary xian class fighters didn’t have as much money as him.

“Haha! Did you not expect this?” Xuanyuan said with a self-satisfied smile, “I plundered all the money from those people who chased me and tried to kill me, so you don’t have to feel like I’m wasting money.”

“But…” Bai Youniang still wanted to refuse his money.

“If you still think I’m your friend, take the money. Money is of no great use to me, but it must be of great use to you. Work hard. I think I will need a lot of help from you on the road of cultivation in the future. I’m striving to cultivate to change my fate. You need to keep up with me, so that you can offer me help.” Xuanyuan interrupted Bai Youniang’s refusal with an irresistible tone. Hearing Xuanyuan’s insistence, Bai Youniang didn’t say anything more, because she knew Xuanyuan’s nature.

“Well, since you say so, I will accept your money. I will follow what you said, and I will not lose my way.” Bai Youniang smiled beautifully. As a businesswoman who grew up in a business family, Bai Youniang understood this truth. Yan Ziyun was the best example. She absolutely didn’t want to follow in Yan Ziyun’s footsteps. As long as she could make the money from the activities of Taibai Trading in the Fighting Dragon City, she would get better rewards and gifts.

Xuanyuan took off his instruments one by one, threw them into his ring, and then replaced them with this set of instruments specially selected by Bai Youniang for him. Wearing those instruments, he felt extremely comfortable. As expected, the top rank heaven class instruments were special.

Xuanyuan estimated that even if he met ordinary third rank Emperor Realm Fighters, he would have nothing to fear.

“Xuanyuan, where are you going to go next?” Bai Youniang asked as she put away her coins.

“First of all, I will go back and kill the aristocratic families of the Fighting Dragon Sect who want to kill me, and I will kill the disciples of the caves one by one. A real man needs to take revenge. All their elders found me in trouble in the Land of Darkness on that day. If I were not strong, I would have already died by their hands. I’m not so kind as to let those who have bit me go free, am I?” Xuanyuan smiled maliciously.

“Oh, when will you learn to be a bit more subdued? Now the name of Xuanyuan is famous in the Land of the East. Everyone knows your name; you are now even more famous than the Emperor Eastern Dynasty. The former lord of the Fighting Dragons Sect and the heroic Emperor of the Eastern Dynasty both lost their lives in the Land of Darkness, but you come out safely. This has made countless people boast about your strength.” Bai Youniang laughed and teased Xuanyuan.

“Why not let them say whatever they want to say?” Xuanyuan smiled.

“You’re right, there’s no such thing as bad press.” Bai Youniang obviously agreed with those who praised Xuanyuan. At least in her mind, Xuanyuan was as powerful as they described.

“Ha! It was just luck, Youniang. I want to buy some more medicine and elixir, and talismans as well.” Xuanyuan thought that since he already spent one trillion on the five top rank heaven class instruments, he should buy some talismans, medicines, and elixirs.

“All right.” Bai Youniang also knew that Xuanyuan always did what he said, and since he said that he would kill the disciples of the Fighting Dragon Sect who chased him and tried to kill him, of course he would carry it out. Medicines and elixirs, as well as talismans, would be of great use in the upcoming battle.

Bai Youniang led Xuanyuan to the Medicine and Elixir Building. When they entered the building, countless people stared at them.

A few years ago, if people saw Xuanyuan and Bai Youniang standing together, they would think that Xuanyuan was a toad, and wanted to eat swan meat. But this year, when Xuanyuan stood beside Bai Youniang, maybe those who adored Bai Youniang were not convinced, but no one dared to speak outright. Some even shouted on the spot, “Master Xuanyuan and Miss Bai are really a match made in heaven.”

All the flattery made Bai Youniang blush. She smiled charmingly and led Xuanyuan straight to the seventh floor of the Medicine and Elixir Building.

As before, the entire floor was cleared out for their sole use.

“What medicines do you need?” Bai Youniang managed to compose herself, and said.

Xuanyuan knew that Bai Youniang must have a good understanding of the medicines and elixir they have stock of. As long as he said what kind of effect he needed from it, she would be able to figure out what exact elixir or medicine would give him the effects he desired.

“I want an elixir that can instantly stimulate my Qi and blood and increase my strength.” Xuanyuan answered.

Bai Youniang’s facial expression changed. She was startled, “What do you want this kind of elixir? It grants you great power, but you stand to lose your lifespan, or worse. Life is a precious commodity, countless cultivators would willingly give up all their treasures just for a shot at a longer life. Why do you need great power, even at the cost of cutting down your own life?”

“It’s hard to say. I may only have four years left at most. I will be extremely lucky if I manage to rid myself of the Heart Devouring Bug. But I may fail as well. In that case, I want to utilise this elixir in order to maximise my strength and deal an irrecoverable blow to my enemies before I die.” Xuanyuan said with a smile.

“Well, this here is the Evil Elixir of the Mad King, an emperor class elixir. You must be extremely careful when you take it.” Bai Youniang said heavily.

“What do you mean?” Xuanyuan saw Bai Youniang take it out of her clothes. Obviously, Bai Youniang had also made the same preparation for herself.

“This kind of elixir raises one’s strength sharply at the cost of burning one’s blood. Generally, 70% of the people who take this elixir will die, 10% will have their cultivation to be completely destroyed, 10% will be seriously injured, and the other 10% can be considered extremely lucky, and only have their lifespan shortened. It all depends on their fate.” said Bai Youniang.

“Understood.” After he accepted the Evil Elixir of the Mad King, Xuanyuan said: “Didn’t you also prepare one for yourself?”

“This kind of elixir can only be taken once in one’s life at most. If you take it a second time, you will surely die. I prepared it just in case I needed it.” Bai Youniang said.

“Don’t worry. I won’t use it unless I have no other choice. I once received this from the king class fighter of the Yin Family who chased me, but I threw it away later because I couldn’t use it at the time.” Xuanyuan spoke casually, as he didn’t want to worry Bai Youniang. He then asked, “Are there any medicines and elixir that can restore Qi quickly? My Qi capacity has increased dramatically now. The grandmaster and imperial fighter elixirs can’t fully replenish me now.”

“Well…” Bai Youniang gently walked over to a curved wall. She took out a bottle of elixir and said, “There are thirty-six Emperor Elixirs in it, which is enough to make a seventh rank Emperor Realm Fighter fully restore his Qi. If you want more, you can take another bottle.”

“Then give me one more bottle!” Xuanyuan calculated that he still had 700 billion king coins in his pocket, and it would be better to prepare himself.

Bai Youniang took two bottles of the Emperor Elixir and gave them to Xuanyuan.

He thought to himself, “I don’t need other stuff, I already have one Nirvana Rebirth Elixir. He planned to buy all the medicines and elixir he needed at once to ensure he was well-prepared.

Bai Youniang knew that Xuanyuan was bound to leave after he finished his work in the Fighting Dragon Sect to prepare him to break through the realm of emperor class fighter in the future. She took the Emperor Class Fighter Elixir and gave it to Xuanyuan.

“Well, the preparation of medicine and elixir is almost done. Let’s go to the Class Talismans Tower and have a look.” Xuanyuan said.

“All right.” Bai Youniang nodded like a young wife and happily led Xuanyuan in the direction of the Class Talismans Tower.
