"Clan leader, Master Gu Hai is here to visit you."
Hearing this, everyone looked puzzled.
"Master Gu Hai, why is he here?"
The Great Elder's face turned slightly cold as he reminded.
"Lin Yao is his disciple. The Lin family wants to seize the Shennong Ding. Gu Hai might be behind it."
Li Chonglou thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Please ask him to come in."
Soon, Gu Hai walked into the hall.
He first glanced at the pale-faced Li Chonglou. As an alchemist, he could tell at a glance that Li Chonglou had indeed damaged the foundation of his cultivation.
If it weren't for the Yang Yuan Pill, it would be difficult to make any progress in cultivation from now on.
However, before he could speak, the Great Elder questioned him.
"I wonder why Mr. Gu came to my Li family?"
Gu Hai didn't even look at the Great Elder, sat down directly, and then spoke.
"I'm here to save Chief Li."
Li Chonglou narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Save me?"
Gu Hai nodded, then went straight to the point.
"Patriarch Li burned his blood and essence, damaging his foundation. If he doesn't take the Yang Yuan Pill, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to improve his cultivation."
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder sneered.
"Don't worry about the Yang Yuan Pill, Mr. Gu. There are so many alchemists, and you're not the only one who can refine the Yang Yuan Pill."
The second elder also echoed.
"My ancestor is refining the Yang Yuan Pill."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at the Danjie outside the hall.
"This is the pill tribulation of a heavenly-grade elixir. Mister Gu wouldn't be unable to recognize it, right?"
Gu Hai was not surprised by this. After all, before coming, Li Linaotian had already told him that Li Lingge did have a talent for alchemy.
He imitated the tone of the Great Elder and spoke.
"There are so many alchemists in this world who can bring about pill tribulations, but how many of them can successfully refine a heavenly-grade pill?"
"you--"
If someone else said this, they would naturally not believe it.
But the person in front of him was Gu Hai, the strongest alchemist in the Eastern Region.
At this moment, they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, can the ancestor really succeed?
Seeing that no one spoke, Gu Hai continued.
"I can help Patriarch Li refine a Yang Yuan Dan with 90% efficacy.
Of course, my conditions are very simple. Lin Yao is my disciple, and I want to take her away.
Also, the Netherworld Halberd belongs to the Lin family and should be returned to its original owner."
In his opinion, this was a very fair deal. Using an imperial weapon and a younger member of the Lin family in exchange for the future cultivation path of the head of the Li family, anyone should know how to choose.
Unexpectedly, Li Chonglou shook his head and spoke in a firm tone.
"My clan's ancestor will definitely be able to successfully refine the Yang Yuan Pill. Even if he fails, what does it matter if I remain at the Tianzun realm for the rest of my life?"
Now that the ancestor has returned to the family, it no longer matters what level of cultivation he, the clan leader, has.
Even if he took the Yang Yuan Pill at its full effectiveness, he would have a chance to break through to the Emperor Realm in this lifetime.
Could it be that my strength could be even stronger than that of my ancestor?
The ancestor was the one who defeated the ten demon emperors with one sword!
On the contrary, imperial weapons are very important to the Li family.
The Netherworld Halberd was the trophy obtained by the ancestor after he killed Emperor Lin Tian. It was the foundation for the future rise of the Li family. How could he hand over an imperial weapon just for himself?
The Lin family plotted to seize the imperial weapon from the Li family, and even wanted to destroy the Li family.
You’re dreaming if you want him to hand over the imperial weapon and Lin Yao now!
"Lin Yao is the daughter-in-law of my Li family, so naturally she should stay in the Li family."
Then he changed the subject.
"Moreover, our ancestor will definitely succeed in refining the Yang Yuan Pill!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the Li family members in the hall echoed in unison.
"That's right, the ancestor will definitely be able to refine the Yang Yuan Pill!"
"You, you guys—"
Now it was Gu Hai's turn to be speechless. He didn't expect Li Chonglou to be so stubborn.
"The Lin family is one of the nine imperial clans. Lin Aotian simply withdrew from the imperial alliance. He is not dead yet."
Seeing that soft tactics didn't work, there was a hint of threat in his tone.
"Your Li family isn't afraid of the punishment from the Imperial Alliance. Can your Li family really stand up to the entire nine imperial clans?"
In order to maintain the dignity of the Imperial Alliance, the nine imperial clans must unite as one.
"Even if Li Lingge is a good fighter, can he beat ten people by himself?"
Oh--
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Li family laughed, and their laughter was meaningful.
That’s right, their ancestor can really beat ten people!
Seeing this, Gu Hai felt that the Li family members were a little unreasonable.
"What are you laughing at!"
As soon as he finished speaking, something strange happened.
A golden light fell straight down, illuminating the entire Li Mansion with golden splendor.
Under the golden light, colorful auspicious clouds rose up like a dream and slowly floated around the Li Mansion.
A group of snow-white cranes flapped their wings and flew in the sky, appearing particularly graceful against the backdrop of golden light and colorful clouds.
Looking at the shocking scene before them, many members of the Li family were slightly stunned at first.
They opened their eyes wide, their faces filled with shock, as if they couldn't believe what they saw.
However, just a moment later, the Great Elder exclaimed.
"Golden light fills the sky. This is a phenomenon that can only be caused by a pill that has been refined to full efficacy!"
"The ancestor actually refined a 100% effective Yang Yuan Pill!"
"Someone actually wants to use a mere 90% effective Yang Yuan Dan to come to my clan to demand people and things. How ridiculous!"
A top-grade elixir with 100% efficacy only exists in legends. No one would have thought that one day they would be able to see this scene with their own eyes.
They were already shocked when they heard that Li Lingge was going to refine a top-grade elixir.
However, they didn't expect that the shock brought to them by the ancestor was far more than that. The heavenly-grade elixir with 100% efficacy was enough to shock the entire Eastern Region, and even the entire Jiuli Realm.
