"Young Master Dan Ming, you've lost!"
Xing Jue's faint laughter rang out, announcing the end of the battle.
"How is this possible? Young Master Dan Ming actually lost? "
"He actually defeated Young Master Dan Ming with a single strike? Isn't this Xing Jue a little too strong? "
Even though Xing Jue had already announced the end of the battle, even though the truth was already in front of everyone, the people of the Sacred Pill Clan still couldn't believe that Dan Ming, who had an absolute reputation in the Sacred Pill Clan, was defeated by Xing Jue just like that. They couldn't accept this fact at all.
"Hall Master Xing Jue, it's just a spar, please stop."
Just at this moment, the elder came to Xing Jue's side and said with a smile. Even though he was shocked by the strength that Xing Jue had displayed, as an elder of the Sacred Pill Clan, he had no choice but to speak to Xing Jue because Dan Ming's head was still firmly pressed into the ground by Xing Jue.
"Of course!"
Even though Xing Jue looked polite on the surface, he was actually extremely disgusted with Dan Ming. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used such a method to make Dan Ming look so miserable. But now that the elder had spoken, Xing Jue naturally couldn't make things difficult for Dan Ming. After a slight smile, he stood up from Dan Ming's back.
"Xing Jue, you're courting death!"
When Xing Jue stood up, he had already retracted all of his pressure. At this moment, Dan Ming was like a wild horse that had escaped its reins, a fierce tiger that had descended the mountain. The anger in his heart was clearly written all over his face. When he stood up, he actually threw a punch out, using that terrifying power to explode towards Xing Jue.
"Heh, looks like you really don't have a good memory."
Xing Jue seemed to have already expected this sudden ferocious attack from Dan Ming. Not only was he not the slightest bit surprised, but the corner of his mouth was lifted slightly. This time around, a dark ruthlessness seeped out from his smile.
"Dan Ming, stop!"
However, just as Xing Jue was about to attack Dan Ming, a woman's roar suddenly rang out. At the same time, a boundless pressure descended from the sky. At this instant, Dan Ming's body instantly froze and he was unable to move even half a step.
"Patriarch, it's the Patriarch!"
Almost at the same time this voice rang out, the people of Sacred Dan Clan present could already tell who this person was, and just as some of the people had said, this person was the current Patriarch of Sacred Dan Clan, Dan Gu.
"Palace Master Xing Jue, I'm really sorry."
Under everyone's astonished gazes, Lady Dan's figure appeared in front of Xing Jue. Moreover, there was a trace of guilt on her face.
"Lord Patriarch, he …"
Seeing Lady Pill appear, Dan Ming's face was filled with grievance and he wanted to say something.
"Shut up!"
"Palace Master Xing Jue is my clan's esteemed guest, and you are allowed to attack him. If it wasn't for Palace Master Xing Jue showing mercy, you would have already died here!" However, before Dan Ming could finish speaking, Lady Pill reprimanded him with a face full of anger.
At this moment, not to mention Dan Ming, even the people present were speechless. After Lady Pill's reminder, they finally realized that the strength that Xing Jue had displayed earlier was indeed the truth. According to what they knew, Xing Jue was only a low-level combat emperor, and his strength was the same as Dan Ming's. Furthermore, Dan Ming had stepped into the combat emperor realm a few years earlier than Xing Jue.
But now, Xing Jue was actually able to defeat Dan Ming with a single strike. From this, it could be seen how terrifying Xing Jue's talent and strength were. At this moment, some people thought that Xing Jue had already broken through the low-level combat emperor realm and stepped into the mid-level combat emperor realm. However, one must know that Xing Jue had only stepped into the combat emperor realm a few months ago.
"Palace Master Xing Jue is indeed worthy of being the youngest person to step into the combat emperor realm in the Sky Martial Continent. This kind of talent is simply something I have never seen before. Even among my ancient clans, I'm afraid that no one can match you." After reprimanding Xing Jue, Lady Pill smiled and said to Xing Jue.
"Patriarch Dan, please excuse me!" In response to Lady Pill's praise, Xing Jue only smiled and replied politely.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Lady Pill, Lady Pill brought Dan Ming and the rest of the Sacred Dan Clan away with the excuse of punishing Dan Ming. Only Xing Jue and Wang Yanran were left in the huge Sacred Dan Clan's garden.
"Senior sister Wang's talent is indeed extraordinary. She was actually chosen by Patriarch Dan to become the successor of the dignified Sacred Dan Clan. This junior is truly happy for senior sister." In the pavilion, Xing Jue stood beside Wang Yanran and said with a smile.
"Heh, compared to junior brother Xing Jue, my achievements are simply not worth mentioning. Furthermore, it's all thanks to you that I have my achievements today. Otherwise, I would just be a homeless person." Wang Yanran's face was filled with gratitude. However, the gratitude in her eyes seemed to be filled with another kind of feeling.
"Junior brother Xing Jue, I wonder if Patriarch Dan has mentioned the matter of the alliance to you?" After speaking, Wang Yanran added.
"Eh, the Asura Point and the Sacred Dan Clan have indeed formed an alliance." Seeing that Wang Yanran had actually brought up the matter of the alliance, Xing Jue was also quite surprised. However, he still admitted it.
"Hehe, so it's like that."
"Actually, no matter how high my talent in alchemy is, I wouldn't have been listed as the successor of the Patriarch so quickly. The reason why I'm able to be favored by the Patriarch is all because of you, junior brother Xing Jue. You're the one who changed her view of me, because you're the person she really wants to rope in." Seemingly seeing through Xing Jue's confusion, Wang Yanran added with a smile.
"Senior sister Wang, aren't you thinking too much?" Hearing Wang Yanran's words, Xing Jue was stunned at first, then said in disbelief.
"Junior brother Xing Jue, even if I'm one of the chips that the Patriarch used to rope you in, this is still a good thing. As long as nothing happens to you and the Asura Point, my position in the Sacred Dan Clan will not change. Perhaps after many years, I will really be able to inherit the position of the Patriarch of the Sacred Dan Clan." Wang Yanran did not reply to Xing Jue's question, but added with a smile.
"Err …"
"Senior sister Wang, what exactly did you experience in the Sacred Dan Clan?"
At this moment, facing the Wang Yanran in front of him, Xing Jue was indeed speechless. He didn't know what to say, and could only silently ask in his heart.
Because she realized that the current Wang Yanran was no longer the simple her from back then. At the very least, a huge transformation had already occurred in the depths of her heart, and to be able to transform a person to such an extent in such a short period of time, she must have experienced something that no one else knew about.
Furthermore, Xing Jue also felt that what Wang Yanran said made sense. There was no lack of genius-level rookies in the Sacred Dan Clan, and even if that Dan Ming from before was not a match for Xing Jue, regardless of whether it was his personal strength or the level of the Alchemist, he seemed to be stronger than Wang Yanran.
Even such a rookie did not obtain the position of Patriarch. For an outsider like Wang Yanran, who had just entered the Sacred Dan Clan, to be able to do so, it was indeed somewhat inexplicable.
"Junior brother Xing Jue, this world has always been a world of benefits. Everyone will put their own benefits first, and as long as the benefits can be maximized, then no matter what the sacrifice is, it will be worth it."
"Today, the Sacred Dan Clan needs your strength, so she used me to rope you in. If she becomes enemies with you in the future, then it would not be impossible for me to become a prisoner from this glorious successor of the Patriarch."
"This is a set of refining techniques that I have concluded from my cultivation in the Sacred Dan Clan until now. Junior brother Xing Jue, your soul strength is extraordinary. If you step into the ranks of the Alchemist, I believe that you will also be able to achieve something." Suddenly, Wang Yanran flipped his wrist and a book appeared in his hand.
"Senior sister Wang, right now, the calamity is approaching. I can't even cultivate, so where would I have the time to learn alchemy? Furthermore, this book contains the refining methods of the Sacred Dan Clan, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to give it to me, right?" Seeing that Wang Yanran had actually given him the Alchemy Treasure Book that she had summarized, Xing Jue tried to evade.
"Junior brother Xing Jue, the Asura Palace's strength is growing day by day, and the pill can make the Asura Palace's strength even stronger. Even if you are not interested in alchemy, it is not impossible for you to form a team of alchemists in the future to provide the pill for the Asura Palace's army."
"And you have helped me greatly. With my abilities, I do not know how to help you. This is the only thing I can do for you, so you must not shirk it." Wang Yanran's face was filled with seriousness.
"This … Alright then." Seeing Wang Yanran's sincerity, Xing Jue had no choice but to accept it and keep it in his storage bracelet.
After that, Xing Jue chatted with Wang Yanran for a while. However, as the calamity was approaching, there were too many things that needed to be done. Thus, Xing Jue did not stay for long. After bidding farewell to the patriarch of the Sacred Dan Clan, Lady Dan, he left in a hurry.
Outside the Mystical Herb Plain, Xing Jue's figure had already left. However, on the plain, Wang Yanran looked at the place where Xing Jue had disappeared. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she was reluctant to leave.
However, she did not know that Xing Jue did not leave in the dimensional space. Instead, he hid his aura and quietly watched Wang Yanran.
"Senior sister Wang, I really don't know if sending you to the Sacred Dan Clan was right or wrong."
"But don't worry. As long as I, Xing Jue, am here, I will not let you become a prisoner of the Sacred Dan Clan." Looking at Wang Yanran, who was previously smiling happily, but after she left, her face was filled with sorrow, Xing Jue silently made a promise.
"Weng!"
"This is … Little sister Lin 'er!"
However, at this moment, Xing Jue suddenly felt a fluctuation coming from the token in his storage bracelet. When he took it out, he was shocked to find a few lines of words written on it.
The content of the message was actually sent to him by Su Lin 'er. It turned out that Xiao Bai had already recovered her strength. Due to the urgency of finding her mother's corpse, Su Lin' er had already rushed to the Endless Sea with Xiao Bai and told Xing Jue to return to the Asura Palace first.
"This girl, she actually went by herself."
"But this is also good. It saves me the trouble of going to the Heavenly Spirit Clan." After reading the message from Su Lin 'er, Xing Jue smiled bitterly. Su Lin' er, who had always been obedient, had actually disobeyed his words. It could be seen that her mother held a very important position in her heart.
"Endless Sea. Maybe now is the time to find the Celestial Island!"
However, after that, the bitter smile on Xing Jue's face suddenly changed. His determined face was filled with endless anticipation. All these years, Xing Jue had never forgotten an unforgettable experience in the Endless Sea. It was the Celestial Island hidden deep in the Endless Sea.
