Chen Dasheng was dumbfounded as he looked at Li Chunyang, who was smiling without saying a word, and asked in astonishment, “Brother, what he said can’t be true, can it?”

Li Chunyang patted him on the shoulder and sighed, “Brother, although your injury has not healed yet, I need your help again.”

With his eyes widened, Chen Dasheng burst out laughing. “Haha! I can’t believe I would have the chance to put on my battle suit and gallop through the battlefield again! Brother, if you need any help, just tell me! I’ll definitely do as you bid!”

“We’ll discuss this later,” Li Chunyang nodded and said. Then, he turned to stare at Yunxiao, his eyes glowing green as if he was looking at a treasure vault.

Yunxiao felt a chill run down his spine, and he asked warily, “Why? What are you looking at?”

With a look of gratification on his face, Li Chunyang said, “You are indeed a second-tier alchemist. Now I really believe it!”

Suddenly, his face lit up with greed and his eyes narrowed as he smiled and said, “A second-tier alchemist must have many good things, right? At first, I was really fooled by you, but now when I look back…that medicinal pill which allowed Ji Meng to instantly break through to the realm of Martial Lords, should be refined by you, right? Also, what is the Thousand Birds pill you gave Ji Meng? I am your grandfather, so you can’t give me anything lesser than him.”

It turned out that he was trying to blackmail Yunxiao!

Yunxiao said with a wry smile, “I don’t have anything good with me.”

Li Chunyang’s face darkened as he said angrily, “You don’t have anything good? Where is the secret vault of the family? Answer me!” He scolded in rage, “Heavens! The wealth our family has accumulated for hundreds of years has been completely emptied by you! I wouldn’t be so angry if you just emptied the secret vault, but now the whole secret vault has disappeared! Heavens! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it! Are you so poor that you have to take away even a cave?”

“This…”

Traces of cold sweat oozed out of Yunxiao’s forehead. He did not intend to tell anyone about the Divine Realm Tablet. Looking at Li Chunyang’s carnivorous eyes, he took out a bottle of pills and handed it over while saying, “These are the Thousand Birds pills, a medicinal pill that stimulates the potential of the human body through toxicity. After taking it, the body will be extremely uncomfortable, but when the medicinal strength disappears, there will be no problem or side effects left.”

The effect of Thousand Birds pill on him was getting weaker and weaker, and it was useless for him to keep them. So, he took them out generously.

“A medicinal pill that can stimulate the potential of the human body without side effects?” Li Chunyang took the bottle with great joy and put it in his pocket, then continued to squint at Yunxiao.

“Damnit! You are not going to continue to blackmail me, are you? In other families, it is the elders who give the juniors things!”

“Where is the secret vault? Where is the cave?”

“This is a bottle of Rain pills which can clear the mind, keep the mind calm during meditation, and get rid of all distractions and mental demons!”

“What? A medicinal pill that can get rid of mental demons!”

Li Chunyang quickly grabbed the bottle and took off the cap, putting it to his nose for a sniff. Then, he pocketed it with a look of disbelief. When meditating, the most feared thing was to be disturbed by mental demons. If one could not get rid of distractions and keep the mind calm, then meditation was harmful and useless, not to mention capable of improving one’s cultivation base.

This kind of medicinal pill had always been in high demand but short supplied on the market, because no one would sell it.

After extorting two bottles of pills, Li Chunyang stopped giving Yunxiao a hard time. After all, Yunxiao was his grandson, and could not be drained in one go. He would have plenty of opportunities in the future. Yunxiao shivered as he looked at how Li Chunyang stared at him, as if he was a fat pig.

Li Chunyang suddenly smiled and said, “All the guests are here, so let’s go out and meet them.” The whole residence was covered by his divine sense, and nothing that happened could escape his perception.

Xiao Qingwang, Luo Yunshang, Jia Rong, and Ji Meng had been brought to the council hall by Li Baifeng, and various teas and snacks had been served.As Li Chunyang helped Chen Dasheng in, Xiao Qingwang’s pupils constricted and he rose abruptly from his chair. Staring at the two men in horror, he cried out, “Chen Dasheng? And you, Li Chunyang! Since when did you become a Martial King!”

Luo Yunshang was not familiar with Chen Dasheng, so she did not have much emotional fluctuation. But when she heard that Li Chunyang had stepped into the realm of Martial Kings, her eyes were instantly filled with shock.

Chen Dasheng looked on with melancholy as if he was recalling something. He smiled wryly and said, “Qingwang, we haven’t seen each other for five years.”

Xiao Qingwang stared at him for a while and then said in a low voice, “You were also attacked by the extreme cold poison…I thought you were dead.”

With a bitter smile, Chen Dasheng shook his head. After Li Chunyang helped him sit down, he sighed and told the story again.

After hearing his story, Xiao Qingwang flew into a rage and said, “Chunyang, why didn’t you come to me at the beginning? If it were really His Majesty’s doing, I would never sit by idly!”

Li Chunyang sighed, “You were also seriously injured then, and I had only become a Martial Lord at that time. I didn’t have the strength to handle it, so I had to hide Dasheng.”

Xiao Qingwang became silent. In the past few years, his influence had also gradually declined. Although his title of a Martial King was still there, it was getting weaker every day, to the point where he could not control all five units of the State Guardians. After looking at Chen Dasheng and then at Yunxiao, his eyes brightened and he asked directly, “Young Master Yun, have you found a method to treat our injuries?”

Yunxiao nodded, “Yes. I have refined a pill called Mysterious Fire pill, which can suppress the extreme cold poison. However, its grade is too low, only second-grade, and its medicinal strength is limited. If you wish to fully recover, you’ll need Teacher Luo’s pure Yang energy.”

He toyed with the pill bottle in his hand and said, his eyes wandering a little, “If I completely cure your injury, I hope you can do something for my family.”

Xiao Qingwang was overjoyed as someone could finally solve the problem that had troubled him for many years. But, when he heard the second half of Yunxiao’s words, he was lost in thought. Before long, he said seriously, “I understand this. We should always repay the favor others have bestowed upon us. I can do three things for you unconditionally, as long as you don’t put me in a too difficult a position.”

“Well, three things are enough!” Yunxiao’s eyes burst with a light as he laughed and handed over the pill bottle containing the Mysterious Fire pill with both hands.

Yunshang did not seem to care about these things. She just looked at Yunxiao in shock and asked in horror, “You…You have refined a second-grade medicinal pill? You…How did you make it?”

Yunxiao did not know how to explain it, so he spread out his hands as he put on a helpless look and said, “I don’t know either…I refined it by accident. Luck, it must be luck.”

Yunshang recovered herself after a brief absence. There was a strange look in her eyes as she shook her head and said, “I see. You have been hiding so deep that even I have been fooled by you. I was so worried about you.”

Yunxiao was slightly moved. He knew that Yunshang had really cared about him in the past, but after he learned that the person in her mind was actually his previous life, he immediately had a strange feeling. As a result, he felt very unnatural whenever he saw her. So, he said with sincere gratitude, “Teacher Luo, thanks for everything you have done for me. This time, if you help Lord Chen and Commander Xiao heal their internal injuries, the Li Family will definitely pay you a satisfactory reward.”

Shaking her head, she said, “Commander Xiao and Lord Chen are the backbones of the state, so it is my duty to help them. You don’t have to pay me anything. If you have the inspiration one day, don’t forget to play the Guangling melody for me. I really want to hear it.” The expression on her face was unusually calm, but when she mentioned ‘Guangling melody’, her eyes seemed to ripple with emotions.

Yunxiao’s mood seemed to ripple with the look in her eyes as well. He was shocked, and quickly looked away, lowering his head as he said seriously, “I will definitely play the melody for you.”

When he said that, his mood seemed a little depressed. Yunshang paused for a moment, then nodded and said nothing more.

After some further discussion, the crowd decided to stay at the Li Family’s residence. Yunxiao put Jia Rong in charge of the treatment, and after giving him some instructions, he went on to cultivate in seclusion.

The next day, Li Chunyang went to court early in the morning in order to obtain the military deployment order.

It was the first time Yunxiao had entered the family training room. It was much more magnificent than the academy’s, but there was no gravity array. Anyhow, he had Black Girl with him, which always put ten times the force of gravity on him.

The cultivation techniques he was cultivating were the best, and he used the most correct way of cultivation. Even if there was some snag, he should have made the breakthrough and become a Martial Master long ago according to his original expectations. However, even after he had absorbed the toxins in Meng Bai’s body and the righteous energy that more than one hundred scholars had spent many years to cultivate, he still remained as a seven-stars warrior.

It puzzled him so much!

He exhaled deeply and performed an incantation gesture with both hands, then held his breath and concentrated his mind, sending his divine sense into the Divine Realm Tablet inside his dantian.

Previously when he used the eye technique, some strange reactions seemed to have occurred in the tablet, and its internal space could allow the Great Expansion Divine Technique to completely manifest. This gave him the urge to unleash this artifact’s potential as quickly as possible.

His divine sense manifested itself in the tablet and transformed into his appearance as it stood quietly in the independent space.

“I have seen many mystic weapons with a hidden independent space. They all refined simple space laws into artifacts through arrays, but the space here is dead space…”

Yunxiao muttered to himself as he looked at the white clouds floating in the bright clear sky. He took a deep breath and said strangely, “The space here seems to be a world of its own, like a mystic realm, and it seems…alive?”

He dared to be one hundred percent sure that the refining method of this tablet was far above his understanding!

After frowning and pondering for a while, a light flashed through his eyes and he said in a low voice, “No one in the whole Heavenly Martial Continent has the ability to refine this Divine Realm Tablet!”

His feet trod lightly on the ground, and he quietly felt the rhythm of the space. After staring at his body for a long time, he said to himself, “The rules in this tablet seem to be different from those in the outside world, which are able to let the divine sense manifest and the soul take shape.”

He took a few random steps and made a few movements, following which, his expression suddenly became a little strange.
