Although she had already run far away, Lin Beifan and the old mans words were still heard clearly. Her face turned red, and she gritted her teeth, saying, This old man is really shameless!
Then, she ran even farther, disappearing without a trace.
After parted with the old man, Lin Beifan quickly returned to the capital. However, the impact of this battle did not dissipate; instead, it grew larger. Do you know what happened last night? he asked.
How could we not know? Those loud noises were like an earthquake, and people panicked! At the time, I thought it was an earthquake, so I grabbed my child and pulled my wife out!
What exactly happened?
I came from that direction, and there were several barren hills there, but now theyve all been flattened! According to the local villagers, those barren hills were fine yesterday, but overnight they turned into this!
Could it be a duel between two experts?
Even experts couldnt flatten mountains, right? According to the villagers nearby, the weather was extremely unusual that night, with strong winds and rain! They vaguely saw a five-clawed golden dragon in the sky! It seemed like they also saw a celestial maiden fighting with the five-clawed golden dragon!
Youre just making that up. How could that be possible?
Why not? They even found dragon bones with leg bones intact. Doesnt that prove the existence of dragon bones?
This news spread like wildfire.
In the court, someone reported the matter.
Your Majesty, last night, there was a deafening commotion in the southwest of the capital. Subsequently, I sent someone to investigate and found that in the Prorock Mountains, about 200 miles west of the city, several mountain peaks and forests were destroyed. It appears to be both man-made and not man-made.
According to the local villagers, the weather was abnormal that night, with strong winds, rain, and continuous thunder! They vaguely saw a golden dragon and a celestial maiden from above the nine heavens fighting on the mountain!
I dare not take this lightly, so I have reported this matter to Your Majesty! The Empress nodded slightly and said, What you said, I also felt last night.
Empress glanced at Lin Beifan with a slightly raised eyebrow, unable to help but roll her eyes. It was this guy again! According to what Bai Sister said, this guy broke through last night and became the unparalleled Grandmaster of the world, then had a battle with two other unparalleled Grandmasters. In the end, he even transformed into a golden dragon. He really knows how to cause trouble from time to time, making people uneasy!
This matter happened near the capital, we must not take it lightly! So Ill leave this matter to Minister Lin to handle! The Empress said, taking care of the trouble she had brought upon herself.
Yes, Your Majesty! Lin Beifan accepted the order.
He planned to go through the motions and casually send some people to investigate.
Then, as time passed, make everyone forget about this matter. However, at this moment, something shocking was happening in the distant capital of Great Yan. The Empty Void Daoist had received the assistance of the Great Yan Emperor and was preparing for the 3rd alchemical refinement of the Elixir of Immortality.
This was a significant event. As the only person in the world who could refine the Elixir of Immortality, the Empty Void Daoists every move attracted the attention of the outside world. The first attempt to refine the Elixir had been successful but destroyed by the heavens. The second attempt, in the Great Xia, had resulted in the poisoning of the Great Xia Emperor. However, it was said that at that time, the Empty Void Daoist had no intention of making the Elixir for the Great Xia Emperor and had fabricated a fake Elixir, which led to the Emperors demise.
Now, this was the third attempt to refine the Elixir, and the chances of success were high. No one could remain indifferent to the Elixir.
The world was in turmoil, and various countries and factions dispatched experts to the capital of Great Yan.
The Empty Void Daoist is going to refine the Elixir of Immortality again!
The chances of success this time are high; we must seize the Elixir!
Please use the full strength of our sect to seize the Elixir!
In the Imperial Palace of the Great Yan Dynasty
The news reached the new Great Xia Emperor, Xia Tianqiong, who was furious. He clenched his teeth and said, That sorcerer not only escaped but also plans to continue refining the Elixir of Immortality? I will absolutely not let you go! Someone, come!
An old eunuch walked in and respectfully said, Your Majesty!
The Great Xia Emperors face was dark and gloomy. The sorcerer who killed my father has fled to the capital of Great Yan and intends to continue refining the Elixir of Immortality. This is a national hatred and a family feud that must be avenged! Immediately send experts to the capital of Great Yan to bring back the sorcerers head!
Yes, Your Majesty! The old eunuch retreated.
Wait! The Great Xia Emperor called out again.
Your Majesty, what else do you command? The old eunuch returned.
If that sorcerer succeeds in refining the Elixir of Immortality, seize it for me! The Great Xia Emperors eyes gleamed with eagerness.
Yes, Your Majesty! The old eunuch withdrew.
In the Imperial Palace of the Slanted Moon Dynasty
Officials entered the palace to report the matter and asked if they should send someone to seize the Elixir.
The Ziyue Empress remained extremely composed and shook her head. No need to pay attention to it.
Your Majesty, why? The officials were puzzled.
Eternal youth and immortality were the lifelong wishes of every emperor, allowing them to rule the world forever and enjoy wealth and power indefinitely. Why did their Majesty seem so indifferent?
Because our Slanted Moon Dynasty has just been restored, theres much to be done, and our strength is weak! If we were to lose a significant amount of power due to this, it would affect the stability of our nation, which is unwise! I cannot risk my own country and its people for this! smiled the Ziyue Empress.
Your Majesty is wise! the officials bowed, feeling relieved to have such a rational emperor for their country.
The admiring gazes of the officials made the Ziyue Empress feel somewhat elated. In truth, her rationality was entirely thanks to Lin Beifan.
During the days they spent together, she had heard an astonishing piece of news from Lin Beifan: the dragon bones used to refine the Elixir of Immortality were all purchased from him at a high price. Moreover, the dragon bones he had were fake and had no miraculous effects.
Fake dragon bones definitely couldnt produce the Elixir of Immortality. When she heard this news, she was utterly dumbfounded.
That fellow, her beloved strategist, had used fake dragon bones to deceive everyone in the world. His courage was truly remarkable!
However, even though we wont seize the elixir, we can send some people there to muddy the waters and create chaos! The Purple Moon Empress chuckled. Only by making them uneasy can it benefit our Slanted Moon!
Your Majesty is wise! the officials bowed once more.
Among the many countries, only the Great Wu Dynasty remained calm. Regardless of how chaotic the rumors outside were, they refused to send anyone, as if they were indifferent to the matter.
However, on the night of the alchemical refinement, Lin Beifan left the capital with a carefree smile, heading towards the Great Yan beyond the swing. How can I miss out on such a good thing? Ill add some fuel to the fire and help with the excitement!
