However, while all the Sects were racking their brains to figure out who exactly Ling Mo Xie was and whether he was worth currying favor with, the Divine Martial Sect remained silent. This was because their Sect Leader had already received the news that his most beloved disciple had died at the hands of Ling Mo Xie.
In the main hall of the Divine Martial Sect, the Sect Leader looked at the Elder before him, who was speaking endlessly about Ling Mo Xie and suggesting that he send someone to check things out. Not to mention currying favor, even just trying to win him over would be good. The Sect Leader's expression was indifferent.
"Are you done?" The Sect Leader said lightly after listening to the Elder's lengthy speech.
Seeing the Sect Leader's expression, the Elder felt somewhat uneasy, unsure of where he had offended the Sect Leader. What he had said was merely a normal suggestion; many Sects had done the same.
Ling Mo Xie had already begun to show his potential, and it seemed likely that he had powerful support behind him. If they could establish a good relationship now, it would surely yield great returns in the future once he grew stronger.
"Are you done? Done talking!" The Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect had significant authority within the Sect, causing the Elder to quickly stop his lengthy speech and cautiously speak, unsure of where he had offended the Sect Leader.
"Do you know where Liu Wanshan has gone?" The Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect scanned the Elders standing below him and suddenly changed the subject.
"This..." Several Elders exchanged glances. "I heard that Sect Leader recently gifted him a high-level Spirit Beast; perhaps he went out to find someone to spar with?"
After a moment, one of the Elders spoke up.
They all understood Liu Wanshan's temperament; with his character, whenever he received something good, he would immediately seek out other Sects to show off. Sparring with disciples of similar strength was merely an excuse for him to flaunt. However, although the Elders understood this in their hearts, they could not say it outright.
"Sparring? Hmph! Yes, sparring. But this time, he has lost his life!" The Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect snorted coldly.
The Elders immediately showed expressions of surprise. They could not comprehend how anyone in Izumo Kingdom would dare take Liu Wanshan's life.
The Divine Martial Sect was one of the three major Sects in this region of Izumo Kingdom. Normally, when Liu Wanshan went to spar with other Sects, they would at least give him some face. It was unthinkable for anyone to take Liu Wanshan's life; that simply could not happen!
Seeing the surprised expressions of the Elders, the Divine Martial Sect Leader continued, "It's that Ling Mo Xie! You still want me to win him over? Hmph!"
Hearing the Sect Leader's cold snort, the Elders sighed and said, "Sect Leader, we know you are heartbroken over Wan Shan, but we hope you can be more rational. We won't get involved in this matter; we just hope you understand that you are not only yourself but also the Sect Leader of Divine Martial Sect. Please think more about the Sect."
"No need for your nagging, go away! Let me think for myself," the Divine Martial Sect Leader waved off the Elders and leaned on his arm, deep in thought.
The Elders were right; he was not just himself but also the Sect Leader of Divine Martial Sect. He had to be responsible for Divine Martial Sect in everything he did. Therefore, he couldn't impulsively rush to find Ling Mo Xie for revenge. If Ling Mo Xie really had a legendary expert backing him, what awaited Divine Martial Sect would be a storm of bloodshed.
Ling Mo Xie was unaware of the baseless rumors and had inadvertently avoided some trouble for himself. At that moment, he was sleeping in the luxurious Alchemy Room of Izumo Kingdom Palace, feeling utterly bored after spending an entire day there.
Finally, after enduring three days and nights, a pleasant notification sound from the System rang out: a bottle of Dragon Blood Divine Pill had been successfully refined.
"Ding! Successfully refined a mid-level Elixir. Alchemy Room upgraded!"
With the completion sound of the Elixir refinement, the notification for the Alchemy Room's upgrade followed.
The upgrade of the Alchemy Room was almost instantaneous. Ling Mo Xie glanced at the Alchemy interface; after the upgrade, there was an additional (2) next to the Alchemy Room, indicating that he could now refine two types of Elixirs simultaneously.
"The Alchemy Room has upgraded, and the Alchemy time will also shorten; I just wonder how much shorter it will be," Ling Mo Xie muttered to himself as he opened the door and stepped outside, stretching lazily. He had nearly suffocated from staying in the Alchemy Room for three days.
The Izumo King had stationed soldiers outside the Alchemy Room. Upon seeing Ling Mo Xie emerge, they immediately went to report to the Izumo King.
Ling Mo Xie merely glanced at them and quietly waited for the Izumo King to arrive while examining the properties of the Dragon Blood Divine Pill.
Dragon Blood Divine Pill: (Level 6 Elixir) Permanently increases defense by 100 points and vitality by 5000 points; cannot be used repeatedly.
"Permanent attribute-enhancing elixir? Truly worthy of the Dragon Blood Divine Elixir!" Ling Mo Xie said with a hint of a smile, eagerly consuming one for himself.
At that moment, King of Outcloud had also arrived.
"How is it? Have you successfully refined the Dragon Blood Divine Elixir? It's only been three days; could it be a failure?" As soon as the King approached, he asked impatiently, his gaze towards Ling Mo Xie filled with anticipation. He naturally hoped that Ling Mo Xie would succeed.
"Of course I succeeded!" Ling Mo Xie nodded and replied confidently. The Celestial Master System's Alchemy System has no failure rate, meaning as long as you gather the materials, success is almost guaranteed unless there is a system error.
Upon hearing Ling Mo Xie's affirmative response, the King of Outcloud's expression brightened with joy. He smiled contentedly and said, "Then take a rest. Next, you'll need to refine the Berserk Potion and the Recovery Potion as well!"
Seeing that the King did not demand the Dragon Blood Divine Elixir from him, Ling Mo Xie smiled and took out a jade vial, pouring three Dragon Blood Divine Elixirs for the King. "After all, this is for the Outcloud Kingdom; you can have these."
"This... how can I accept this?" The King looked at the Dragon Blood Divine Elixirs Ling Mo Xie handed over, his expression excited and somewhat incoherent as he gazed at the elixirs.
A sixth-level elixir! To a small nation like theirs, this was almost divine! Even in sects like the Divine Martial Sect or Azure Emperor Sect, such elixirs would be considered top-tier.
The King had not expected Ling Mo Xie to give him the Dragon Blood Divine Elixirs. Although he had prepared all the necessary spiritual herbs, the main ingredient belonged to Ling Mo Xie himself. All the auxiliary herbs paled in comparison to those two main ingredients!
It could be said that the essence of the Dragon Blood Divine Elixir lay in those two main ingredients!
Ling Mo Xie observed the King's moved expression and smirked slightly. "Hurry and put them away!"
"Right, right!" The King seemed to snap back to reality from his excitement and waved to a nearby attendant. "Quickly, store these in the treasury! Put them in the innermost secret chamber!"
It seemed this attendant was one of his trusted aides; such treasures were entrusted to him for safekeeping.
Watching the attendant walk away with the Elixir, Izumo King expressed his gratitude to Ling Mo Xie once again.
Ling Mo Xie waved his hand and said, "You don't need to thank me; this is something I owe you."
At this point, Izumo King stiffened for a moment but then replied, "I will naturally express my gratitude where it's due. I'm not someone who can't distinguish right from wrong."
Ling Mo Xie smiled wryly and said, "Then I have one more thing I would like to trouble Your Majesty with."
"What is it? Just say it; as long as I can fulfill it, I won't hesitate!" Upon hearing Ling Mo Xie's words, Izumo King immediately responded decisively.
"I would like to visit the Royal Library in the capital," Ling Mo Xie stated directly.
Izumo King was taken aback for a moment. "What kind of request is that? If you want to go, just go! There are many strange and secretive collections inside, most of which are legends. There aren't many books on cultivation techniques or spells. If you want to see them, feel free to browse."
It seemed that Izumo King didn't care much about the Library and spoke nonchalantly.
With Izumo King's response, Ling Mo Xie felt relieved. After chatting briefly with Izumo King, he left the Palace and wandered around the streets. After being cooped up for three days, it was nice to get out for a stroll!
Meanwhile, in a Spirit Herb Pavilion by the street, Shangguan Ying'er was purchasing Spiritual Medicine.
She had received orders from the Sect Leader and set off the next day. Arriving early in the capital of Izumo Kingdom, she still hadn't figured out how to meet Ling Mo Xie. After all, approaching him with a purpose made her feel somewhat uneasy, so she found a place to stay and practiced Alchemy in her spare time.
"Hey? Isn't that Ying Er?" Ling Mo Xie murmured as he spotted a familiar figure in the Spirit Herb Pavilion. He immediately changed direction and walked toward the Pavilion.
However, Shangguan Ying'er was still preoccupied with selecting Spiritual Medicine and didn't notice Ling Mo Xie's arrival.
Ling Mo Xie had already walked up behind her, yet she remained completely unaware, which was simply unbelievable for a cultivator!
Ling Mo Xie hadn’t intentionally concealed his presence; even an ordinary person would have sensed it, right?
Ling Mo Xie was also somewhat puzzled. It was indeed this girl; how could she be in the capital of Izumo Kingdom and what was she thinking that she didn’t even notice he was right behind her?
“Hey!” Ling Mo Xie slapped his hand on Shangguan Ying'er’s shoulder, intending to ask her what she was thinking, especially since he was so close and she hadn’t noticed.
Shangguan Ying'er trembled at the sudden touch and instinctively let out a startled cry. At that moment, everyone in the Spirit Herb Pavilion turned to look. Upon seeing Shangguan Ying'er, their eyes lit up.
Shangguan Ying'er possessed a Water Spirit Body, with outstanding looks, tender and fair skin that slightly glowed with a hint of color. At this moment, she appeared as charming as a startled fawn.
The other customers selecting Spiritual Medicine saw Ling Mo Xie’s hand still resting on Shangguan Ying'er’s shoulder, and their expressions immediately turned unfriendly. It seemed as if flames were sparking in their eyes as they glared fiercely at Ling Mo Xie. Wasn’t this kid the one who made the goddess scream?
“Kid, what are you doing? Hurry up and take your filthy hands off her!” Some hot-blooded young men immediately surged with righteous indignation and shouted sternly at Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie felt a headache coming on; who had he offended? He rolled his eyes and awkwardly withdrew his hand, but he naturally didn’t have a good expression for those passionate youths: “What’s it to you? Mind your own business!”
