He thought that only heaven and earth knew his little thoughts, but he didn't realize that the moment he walked out of the room, a subtle sneer appeared at the corner of Bu Xuanji's mouth, which was difficult for outsiders to detect.
He also didn't consider that although Mu Hanyan and the others had a distinguished background, their cultivation was actually nothing in the Holy Court at that time. Even if they were valued by the Holy Lord, they should not arouse the jealousy and rejection of the young men of the Holy Court. Han Yutang's hostility towards them and Jin Qisheng's resentment might have other hidden stories behind them.
When he arrived at the back mountain, Wei Xiaotian did not practice and recuperate as he said, but flew along a small path towards Jin Qisheng's residence.
Not long after walking, he met Han Yutang, who was smiling and full of confidence.
"Brother Wei, what a coincidence! You are usually busy with retreat and cultivation, and it's rare to see you. I didn't expect to meet you here." Han Yutang was in a good mood and took the initiative to greet Wei Xiaotian.
"Come out for a walk and relax." Wei Xiaotian pretended to be in a bad mood and said perfunctorily.
"What's wrong? Is it because of that damn girl Mu Hanyan? I heard that you were defeated by her two days ago and have been in a coma ever since." Han Yutang said carelessly.
Wei Xiaotian cursed inwardly, "You idiot!" How could anyone rub salt into a wound like this? It's a good thing I came looking for you on purpose, otherwise it would be strange if I didn't turn against you.
Thinking this in his mind, Wei Xiaotian still pretended to be displeased.
"Brother Wei, don't feel embarrassed. That little girl is indeed quite powerful. Even my Thousand Illusions Demon Subduing Formation couldn't embarrass her. Instead, she humiliated me. But she won't be proud for long. I have already thought of a way to deal with her." Han Yutang said proudly.
"What method?" Wei Xiaotian raised his head, seeming to be a little interested.
"Isn't it the day to distribute the Holy Pills in two days? I have already made an agreement with Elder Jin. This time, the distribution of the Holy Pills will be handled by our Shenlao Peak. When the time comes, I will give them some shameful pills. I wonder if Mu Hanyan will be so angry that she will die." Han Yutang laughed.
After hearing the reminder from the follower, he didn't dare to be too blatant in confronting Mu Hanyan, but being able to see Mu Hanyan being humiliated allowed him to vent his anger.
"Is that all?" Wei Xiaotian cursed him inwardly as an idiot. Playing such a lowly trick that wouldn't hurt any muscles or bones was no different from a child playing house. It was a pity that Han Yutang could come up with such a plan.
"Isn't this enough? Mu Hanyan dared to steal my elixir. I'll kill them." Han Yutang looked at Wei Xiaotian stupidly.
Wei Xiaotian then remembered that Han Yutang had been spoiled since childhood and still had the mentality of a child. He collected elixirs just like collecting toys. In his opinion, making things difficult for Mu Hanyan with elixirs was probably the biggest punishment.
"It's nothing. I have something else to do. I'll go find Elder Jin first." Wei Xiaotian said.
"What do you want to see him for?" Han Yutang asked curiously.
"I heard that there is a Yunlong Jiutian Furnace on Shengdan Peak, and the quality of the pills refined there is very good. I want to refine some pills myself to improve my strength before heading to Beiyuan Wuyuan." Wei Xiaotian said.
"Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace!" Han Yutang gasped and said, "I heard that the Cloud Dragon Nine Heavens Furnace has been in disrepair for a long time and is incomplete. Although it can refine top-grade elixirs, it could trigger the power of Nine Heavens Thunder if not handled with care. Even Elder Jin doesn't dare to use it lightly. Is your alchemy skill even better than Elder Jin's?"
"Is there such a thing?" Wei Xiaotian asked in surprise.
"Don't you know?" Han Yutang was even more surprised.
"You also know that I am in seclusion most of the time, how would I know these things?" Wei Xiaotian said with a wry smile.
"Brother Wei, I advise you to practice diligently and don't try to get the Yunlong Jiutian Furnace, otherwise you will end up hurting yourself." Han Yutang advised.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Moreover, they both suffered great losses at the hands of Mu Hanyan, so they can be considered as brothers in distress. He is particularly close to Wei Xiaotian.
"Okay then, thank you Junior Brother Yutang for the reminder. I'll think about it again." Wei Xiaotian said and turned to leave.
Han Yutang did not move. He rolled his eyes a few times and suddenly turned around and walked towards Shengdan Peak again.
Behind him, Wei Xiaotian sneered. How could he know anything about the art of alchemy? These words were originally meant for Han Yutang to hear.
The Holy Court distributes elixirs once a month. On this day, the descendants of the guardians of the gods from various countries on Holy Sword Peak are jubilant. Everyone gets up early, and those who have been practicing in seclusion also come out early.
Everyone got a share of the pills that Mu Hanyan had snatched from Han Yutang and others last time. They also witnessed the extraordinary quality of the Holy Court's pills. Even if it was the same pill, the one made by the Holy Court's alchemists was several times stronger than those made by the best alchemists in various countries on the continent.
You have to know that the quality of the elixir is directly related to the grade of the medicinal materials, the skills of the alchemist, the alchemy furnace, and the laws of heaven and earth and the power of heaven and earth where the elixir is refined. It is obvious that the countries on the mainland cannot compare with the Holy Court.
During this period, practitioners from various countries broke through and advanced one after another. This was certainly related to the abundant and pure power of heaven and earth at Holy Sword Peak and the spirit gathering formation set up by Mu Hanyan, but it was also related to those elixirs. No matter how abundant and pure the power of heaven and earth was, it still took time to refine, but elixirs could be taken directly to improve strength.
Mu Hanyan was also somewhat excited. These past few days, she, Hua Yue, and the others had been trying to use the five magical instruments and sword techniques to draw upon the power of others, significantly increasing their strength. Unfortunately, they had tried several times without success. Mu Hanyan had only just realized that this method required an opportunity. Last time, it was likely because everyone's attention was focused on her that she had stumbled upon the opportunity, not something she could just use casually.
Mu Hanyan was not too disappointed. Relying on the help of outsiders to temporarily improve combat power was always a small way. Improving one's own strength was the right way, and the elixir produced by the Holy Court was obviously another shortcut to improve strength.
At daybreak, everyone headed towards Shengdan Peak. Although they hadn't left Shengjian Peak in the past few days, under Jian Wuchen's guidance, Mu Hanyan had memorized the topography of the Holy Court, and the locations of each peak and valley were particularly clear.
Mu Hanyan walked, taking in the scenery along the way. The others followed her, excited but quiet, their voices low when they occasionally exchanged words. Unconsciously, they had all grown accustomed to following Mu Hanyan, practically following her lead. While they didn't trust each other enough to confide their lives, they were able to follow her orders, which greatly comforted Nan Aotian.
