As soon as he arrived at Linglong Royal City, he asked the guards in charge of the Teleportation Formation and learned that other than Fairy Linglong, the two strongest Conferred God Kings in the city were Shangguan Yunwan and Baiye Qinghong.
The two of them were on par with one another in terms of strength, and they each ruled over their own territories.
Due to their beauty, many experts had gathered under them.
He had thought that the person who would be so shameless as to openly steal from them would only be a God King, but who could have thought that it would be this person?
A single pill represented a God King, and this Pill King was even more so. As long as he could make good use of it, he would be able to raise at least four God Kings under his wing!
It was no wonder he dared to say such words.
Even Conferred God Kings were no exception when faced with such a huge profit.
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had already figured out her identity, Baiye Qinghong placed her hands behind her back and lowered her head. Following which, she saw the feeble Fu Jiangchen slowly flying over to her side. "Hmph!
Even though he had exhausted all of his energy, he still had plenty of pills on him. After swallowing one, he was barely able to fly.
"Fu Jiangchen pays respect to Conferred God King Baiye!"
Fu Jiangchen clasped his fist and bowed, not daring to show the slightest flaw in his etiquette.
Baiye Qinghong nodded. "Since you're here, why don't you explain to everyone that I asked you to forge this pill for me? Am I the one who gave you the medicinal herbs and pill formula? "
"This …" Fu Jiangchen's face stiffened. He turned to look at Zhang Xuan for a moment before gritting his teeth and replying, "That's right!"
"Apothecary Fu, you …" Not expecting Fu Jiangchen to speak up for the other party, Zhang Xuan's face darkened.
It was just a moment ago that he had addressed Fu Jiangchen as Brother Fu, but at this very moment, he had changed the way he addressed him.
"Apothecary Zhang, this pill is indeed forged by Conferred God King Baiye. You should stop fooling around here," Fu Jiangchen said.
"Fooling around?"
Zhang Xuan shook his head with a smile. "From the looks of it, it's the Sky of Linglong who is bullying an outsider like me."
He had brought the Grass of God King here and paid a heavy price to forge this pill, and yet, the other party actually claimed that it was the other party's pill.
This was really a case of calling a deer a horse and turning black into white!
"Audacious! Conferred God King Baiye didn't take offense to your rudeness in view of your contribution to the Sky of Linglong's pill, and yet, you dare to spout such nonsense!"
Fu Jiangchen shouted.
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to explode with anger, he heard the other party's voice transmission.
"Brother Zhang, Conferred God King Baiye has always been a domineering figure. If you don't admit to it, I fear that she'll make a move on you once you leave Royal City. Since that's the case, why don't you just agree to it? If there's really no other choice, I'll report this matter to Conferred God King Shangguan Yunwan and have her make the decision. However, given how the two of them are on par with one another, there's nothing we can do if Conferred God King Baiye insists on taking Conferred God King Baiye!"
"So you're saying that I can only admit defeat and let her steal my pills?" Zhang Xuan sneered.
"I guess that's the only thing we can do. Know when to stop. You've only lost a Pill King, and you still have four ordinary pills that you can use. If this stalemate continues, I'm afraid that … she'll turn hostile and make a move. At that time, we won't be able to obtain anything, and even our lives will be in danger!"
Fu Jiangchen sounded worried.
Not to mention, the other party was one of the rulers of Linglong Royal City, a Conferred God King himself. Anyone beneath the God Monarch realm was no match for him!
Ignoring Fu Jiangchen, Zhang Xuan raised his head and asked, "What if I say no?"
Fu Jiangchen was a member of the Sky of Linglong, so there was no way he would dare to refute a Conferred God King's words. However, that was not the case for Zhang Xuan.
The woman before him was indeed beautiful, comparable to Yu Fei-er, Hu Yaoyao, and the others. Who could have thought that beneath her beauty would be such a shameless person?
He had thought that he would keep a low profile no matter where he went, but who could have thought that he wouldn't be given the right to do so?
Since that was the case, he would have to fight!
He would have to let everyone know that …
It had only been a month since Zhang Xuan had arrived in the Firmament, but he wasn't someone who could be bullied so easily!
"Conferred God King Baiye, right?"
Having made up his mind, Zhang Xuan calmed down and placed his hands behind his back. With a cold glint in his eyes, he said, "I'll give you one last chance. Tell me the origin of this pill and tell me who it belongs to!"
"To think that he would still dare to spout such arrogant words despite knowing the identity of Conferred God King Baiye … Is that fellow insane?"
"He's probably really out of his mind …"
Zhang Xuan scanned the surroundings with his wills.
"I've been polite to you on account of your cultivation and the fact that you helped me capture the pill. Do you think that I won't make a move on you? Or do you think that I won't be able to kill you? "
Baiye Qinghong narrowed her eyes.
Along with her rage, an invincible might burst forth from her body, shrouding the surroundings. The entire sky above the capital seemed to have darkened, and the air seemed to have turned viscous.
Everyone in Linglong Royal City felt immense pressure bearing down on them. Zhang Xuan was the first to feel the pressure, and he found it hard to breathe. It felt as if his zhenqi had been frozen, and he would plummet from the sky at any moment.
If not for the God King Sword in his hand supporting him, he might have really succumbed to the pressure.
Even a true God King would not be able to withstand such power, let alone him.
That was how fearsome a Conferred God King was!
Zhang Xuan drove his Pathos of Heaven zhenqi once more, alleviating the pressure on him. Sighing deeply, he said, "I have already given you a chance, but since you don't know how to cherish it, there's nothing I can do about it …"
"You sure don't know what's good for you!"
Seeing how Zhang Xuan still dared to say such words, Baiye Qinghong's eyebrows shot up.
Why are you still acting all high and mighty at a time like this?
A mere high-tier Celestial God, no more than an ant, actually dared to speak so arrogantly!
Just as Baiye Qinghong was about to teach Zhang Xuan a lesson, her body suddenly froze. She felt as if a powerful force had locked onto her, as if someone was staring at her.
She quickly raised her head, only to see a golden book floating quietly above her head. Rays of light shrouded her, sealing off her surroundings.
"What's that?"
Baiye Qinghong narrowed her eyes in astonishment.
The golden book above her head made her heart palpitate, as if it had locked onto her. Not only was she unable to escape, she was unable to retaliate either.
It was as if she was shrouded by the heavens, making it impossible for her to retaliate.
"It's just a book!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
He had not intended to use the golden book, but the other party was simply too shameless.
He had given her several chances, but she had failed to grasp them. She deserved to die!
While there was a good chance that he would end up offending Fairy Linglong because of this, he could not care less at this moment.
"How dare you refuse to repent even in death! No matter who you are, you are guilty! You deserve to be punished! "
Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to waste his breath anymore, so he waved his hand grandly.
Boom!
The Book of Heaven's Path released a deafening rumble as it descended from the sky.
"No!"
Baiye Qinghong had thought that it would be a piece of cake for her to deal with a high-tier Celestial God, but who would have thought that the other party would take out such a powerful artifact? Her face paled.
Baiye Qinghong tried to defend herself, but she felt excruciating pain. Under the crushing pressure of the golden book, her hand and arm were torn apart. She did not even last a breath.
