"Phew, I'm finally out. What bullsh * t Medicine Sect? What eighteen great powers? I don't think so!" After Ling Xiao exited the Medicine Sect's space, he couldn't help but exclaim softly, his face full of joy.
Being sealed for a year really made him feel suffocated!
The stifling feeling in his heart had also dissipated.
Before he came out, he thought that he would be lucky to be able to leave calmly. He did not expect the Dragon Lady and the Earthly Flaming Tiger to give him such a huge surprise. The Dragon Lady's strength was beyond his expectations, while the Earthly Flaming Tiger's sudden breakthrough was like a timely rain, resulting in today's situation where the guest was the host.
"Yunfeng and the others should be worried too. Let's go to the Medicine Capital to take a look and hand in the mission!"
Ling Xiao muttered to himself as he kept the blue dragon and the Earth Flaming Tiger into the cauldron. Then, he flew towards the direction of the Medicine Capital.
Returning to the Medicine Capital, Ling Xiao didn't have the mood to wander around blindly. He directly flew to the Gu Family's residence.
"Who dares to barge into my Gu Family's territory!"
Just as Ling Xiao flew to the sky above the Gu Family's residence, a powerful voice came from below the Gu Family's residence. Soon after, a figure flew out from the ground.
"Elder Xing, long time no see!" Ling Xiao looked at Gu Longxing and said indifferently.
When Gu Longxing saw who it was, he was stunned for a moment before he said happily, "So it's Master Ling, quick …" "Let's talk below!"
Ling Xiao nodded lightly and followed Gu Longxing to the house below.
After the maid served tea, Ling Xiao had already used his mental power to scan everything in the courtyard. He didn't find the aura of Ye Yunfeng and the others, so he immediately asked, "Elder Xing, Yunfeng and the others have all left?"
Gu Longxing nodded and replied, "I was just about to tell you about this. Three months after you disappeared, Yunfeng and the friends you brought along went to find a person called the Military Advisor. They said that if you appeared, they would pass on the message to you and you would understand."
"So that's how it is. That's good too!" Ling Xiao replied softly and felt relieved.
Now that he knew where Ye Yunfeng and the others were, Ling Xiao did not need to worry anymore. They had Liu Qun to protect them, so there should not be any accidents.
Then, Ling Xiao talked to Gu Longxing about what happened in the past year.
Only then did he realize that the Medicine School had replaced the city lord. No one knew that Ling Xiao had been sealed, and the Gu Family's Ancient Kill Order was still in effect. However, no one could find him. Many people who wanted to kill him had also evacuated from the Medicine Capital.
Ling Xiao only stayed at the Gu Family for a little more than two hours before he got up and rushed to the Alchemist Association. He received three missions a year ago and had to hand them in.
Gu Longxing looked at Ling Xiao's departing figure and felt quite pleased with himself. "Master Ling's aura has increased by quite a bit. It looks like he must have had a fortuitous encounter. This time, our Gu Family has made the right bet."
He could clearly sense that Ling Xiao's strength was different from before. If Ling Xiao continued to develop like this, he would one day shake the entire Central Region and become a supreme existence.
To the Gu Family, an ally like this would only bring benefits and no harm.
Ling Xiao arrived at the Alchemist Association. Before he could even hand in the mission, he heard the supervising elder summon him, "Come see me first!"
When Ling Xiao heard the voice in his ears, his body and mind trembled slightly. He muttered, "Could it be that he knows everything?"
Ling Xiao went straight to the deepest pavilion. The door of the pavilion was still open by itself.
The supervising elder's turbid old eyes looked at Ling Xiao and said indifferently, "To be able to escape from the hands of those brats from the Medicine School, you're very good!"
Ling Xiao looked at the supervising elder in disbelief. He couldn't believe that the supervising elder was so capable that he actually knew everything that had happened in the Medicine School!
The supervising elder seemed to have seen through Ling Xiao's thoughts and said indifferently, "A year ago, when you were brought into the Medicine School by Xun Zheng, I secretly paid attention to you. I thought that you had been recruited by the Medicine School, but when Xun Zheng was replaced, I knew that things weren't that simple. I never thought that those brats from the Medicine School would be so shameless that they almost harmed you for their own benefit. Fortunately, you were a little lucky and made those brats from the Medicine School suffer a loss!"
Ling Xiao scratched the back of his head and said, "The supervising elder is praising me too much. I was just a little lucky!"
He was shocked in his heart. The supervising elder's divine ability was too vast, as if he had already understood the ins and outs of the matter.
"You're the Demonic Emperor's disciple, but you're already much stronger than the Demonic Emperor was at his age. Have you thought about your future plans?" The supervising elder asked.
Ling Xiao didn't know what the supervising elder meant, so he immediately replied, "What plans can I have? If I have nothing to do, I'll just cultivate a little, or play around with alchemy. I'll find a few wives and have children. I'll be satisfied!"
He only spoke three words to everyone he met!
Although the supervising elder had some fate with him, he hadn't reached the level where Ling Xiao could confide in him.
The supervising elder stared at Ling Xiao, trying to see through the truth of Ling Xiao's words.
Ling Xiao faced him calmly and didn't show any signs of hesitation.
After a long time, the supervising elder sighed softly and said, "You're a dignified man, haven't you ever thought about building your own career?
Do you really intend to bury your cultivation and alchemy skills? Or are you only willing to be a powerhouse that others look up to, and not a tyrant? "
Ling Xiao's expression changed, but he was puzzled. He said, "It doesn't matter if I'm the strongest of my generation, or if I'm the most ambitious person in the world. I just want to live a carefree life."
He guessed that the supervising elder wanted to use his name to establish a career, or perhaps he had some other intentions, but no matter what, he felt that he didn't need to listen to other people's arrangements. He liked to control his own life, and not be someone else's puppet.
His words also expressed his firm stance.
The supervising elder said again, "That's right, no one likes to be controlled by others in their own path, and you and I are no exception. But as long as you become a tyrant, not only can you live the life you want, you can also control the lives of others. Don't you think that would be even more perfect?"
"It sounds perfect, but what does that have to do with me?" Ling Xiao asked.
The supervising elder looked at Ling Xiao seriously and said, "If you want to be a hero, an overlord, then I can help you. Do you have the confidence to do it?"
Ling Xiao was slightly startled, but he smiled and said, "Supervising elder, you really like to joke. How can I be a tyrant with my small body?"
"You don't need to belittle yourself. Just based on the fact that you were able to make those brats from the Medicine Sect eat a loss without daring to make a sound, you can do it. Do you have the confidence?" The supervising elder shouted.
It was obvious that he was very confident in Ling Xiao, but he didn't know that he had already fallen into Ling Xiao's trap.
Not only did Ling Xiao have the confidence to be a tyrant, but he also had the confidence to become a tyrant. It was just that he didn't know what the supervising elder wanted.
Now that the supervising elder had placed such high hopes on him, how could Ling Xiao let him down?
He immediately patted his chest and said, "As long as you are willing to help me, I have the confidence to build an existence that is not inferior to the Martial Spirit Court!"
This time, the supervising elder was a little dumbfounded. He didn't think that Ling Xiao would become so confident in the blink of an eye and even say such arrogant words.
Only now did he realize that he had fallen into Ling Xiao's trap.
He didn't get angry, but instead smiled. The layers of wrinkles on his face looked somewhat strange.
"You sly little fox, it seems that you have a lot of ambition. Even an old man like me would be tricked. I have still underestimated you!" The supervising elder laughed.
A hint of gratification flashed in his old eyes. He wanted to see Ling Xiao's arrogance. Perhaps Ling Xiao would help him fulfill his wish.
"Supervising Elder, may I know what conditions you have for helping me?
I must be clear about this. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to trouble you! "Ling Xiao said in a serious tone.
The supervising elder's cultivation was unfathomable and he was also a legendary Medicine Saint. If someone like him could help him, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. It would not be a dream for him to become as powerful as the Martial Spirit Court.
The supervising elder said faintly, "I had once thought that by joining the Pill Alliance, I would be able to borrow the power of the Medicine Order and the Pill Sect to restore the Medicine Sect to its former glory. Unfortunately, I was too naive. They didn't want the Medicine Sect to return to its former glory. They had always let me take on the position of supervising and had no intention of helping me rebuild the Medicine Sect. Now that you have obtained the Medicine Sect's Pill Refinement Technique, it can be said that we are fated. Hence, I have decided to make you the Medicine Sect's new Sect Leader and rebuild the Medicine Sect. I am willing to help you!"
Ling Xiao gently furrowed his brows when he heard this. He was calculating the supervising elder's words in his heart.
He thought for a while before he said in a serious tone, "I can't agree to this!"
The supervising elder was agitated, "Why?
Do you think that I can't help you?
I'm a high-level Saint, there aren't many in the central region who can challenge me! "
Restoring the Medicine Sect was his only wish and he had taken a liking to Ling Xiao's potential. If Ling Xiao did not agree to this, he really did not know what to do.
Ling Xiao then said, "I do want to build an organization but I don't want to do it under the Medicine Sect's name because I'm not a member of the Medicine Sect. I also don't want you to imagine my organization to be like the Medicine Sect. If you really want to rebuild the Medicine Sect, in the future, once I've built my organization, I can split a part of it under the name 'Medicine Sect'. However, this organization must be under my jurisdiction and become an inseparable part of my organization. This might be possible!"
Ling Xiao spoke resolutely and decisively without the slightest bit of hesitation.
His organization must not be built under any name or will. He must do it in his own way and with his own way of thinking.
Only in this way would everything become more meaningful, and it would make him do his job even better.
The supervising elder stared dazedly at Ling Xiao. His elderly eyes were filled with a peculiar look.
Based on his status, many people would try their best to curry favor with him. However, Ling Xiao had refused to do so. This caused the supervising elder to be at a loss.
The supervising elder fell silent for a long time before he sighed heavily, "Alright, I can agree to this as long as the Medicine Sect can be restored!"
