The more the fox demon clan acted this way, the more Liu Xiaoyuan knew that the fox demon clan needed to cooperate with a genius alchemist.
Having grasped this point, Liu Xiaoyuan was no longer worried about his safety. For the sake of the pills, the fox demon clan dared not offend the Alchemy Guild, because once they offended the Alchemy Guild, they would lose their source of pills.
Therefore, the words and pressure exerted by the fox demon clan chief were merely meant to scare Liu Xiaoyuan.
"Clan leader, I'll say it again: Su Xue is my woman. I won't hold it against you for taking her away. All I ask is that you return Su Xue to me. From now on, if you need any pills, just come to me."
After Liu Xiaoyuan finished speaking, he took out the alchemy cauldron he had obtained from the Tan family.
Upon seeing the small cauldron in Liu Xiaoyuan's hand, the patriarch of the fox demon clan, being no frog in a well, naturally knew that this small cauldron was no ordinary object.
A good alchemist often needs a good alchemy furnace; this is an indispensable condition.
If you claim to be an alchemist but don't even have a cauldron for alchemy, then I'm sorry, you're not a good alchemist; you're just a third-rate one.
"Who gave you this small cauldron for alchemy?" the patriarch of the fox demon clan asked in surprise, because an alchemist of Liu Xiaoyuan's level would not need such a fine cauldron.
Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and said, "This is mine, don't be so surprised. It's mine, no one gave it to me."
The fox demon clan leader didn't believe Liu Xiaoyuan's words. Just as she was about to ask, Liu Xiaoyuan continued, "Clan leader, let's not talk about these useless things. We're here to discuss conditions. Just tell me, do you agree or not?"
The patriarch of the fox demon clan hesitated, considering whether or not to cooperate with Liu Xiaoyuan and agree to his conditions.
If the Holy Maiden is gone, we can find another one. The fox demon clan is so large that finding a Holy Maiden shouldn't be too difficult. But if this alchemist is gone, finding another one won't be so easy.
Therefore, the patriarch of the fox demon clan hesitated.
Just then, a voice came from outside, "Chieftain, I have something important to report."
"Come in and talk," the patriarch of the fox demon clan said in a low voice. Upon hearing this, the person outside immediately pushed open the door and walked in. He was stunned when he saw Liu Xiaoyuan inside the room.
Then, the elder of the fox demon clan used their clan's secret method to report to the clan leader. The elder's lips moved a few times, but it was impossible to hear what the elder was saying.
"Step back!" About three minutes later, the patriarch of the fox demon clan said, his voice sounding somewhat agitated.
After the fox demon elder left, the fox demon clan chief said, "Liu Xiaoyuan, I'm giving you one last chance. You'd better obediently agree to my conditions, or I'll make sure you never leave our fox demon clan for the rest of your life."
Liu Xiaoyuan was greatly surprised. Just now, the patriarch of the fox demon clan was clearly about to agree to her request, but suddenly this elder walked in and talked to her for three minutes, and the patriarch of the fox demon clan immediately changed his mind.
I don't know what was said, but the patriarch of the fox demon clan changed his mind so quickly.
"Alright, then I'll stay with your fox demon clan and cultivate. What am I afraid of? Anyway, I can be with your fox demon clan's holy maiden, flirting and teasing each other every day. Wouldn't that be living a life like a god?"
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the patriarch of the fox demon clan immediately snorted angrily and questioned, "Liu Xiaoyuan, aren't you afraid that I'll just kill you?"
Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and shook his head, saying, "I'm not afraid because I'm the champion of this alchemy competition. If you kill me, it's the same as offending the Alchemy Guild."
"If you're not afraid of offending the Alchemy Guild, Clan Chief, you can kill me all you want. After all, this is your Fox Demon Clan's territory, and I'm just fish on the chopping block!" Liu Xiaoyuan acted like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
The patriarch of the fox demon clan was furious to see Liu Xiaoyuan like this, but Liu Xiaoyuan had also found his weakness, so he dared not kill Liu Xiaoyuan.
If the Alchemy Guild finds out about this, it will be troublesome.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, are you threatening me?" The voice of the fox demon clan chief turned icy, and the surrounding air froze once again.
Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't afraid at all; he was used to such things.
“Clan leader, I’m not threatening you. I’m just stating a fact. So, clan leader, I advise you to think this through.” Liu Xiaoyuan said calmly.
"Get out of our fox demon clan right now! We fox demon clan do not welcome you!" The fox demon clan chief had no choice but to tell Liu Xiaoyuan to get out of their place so that he would not have to see him and bother them.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Clan leader, you've captured my woman, shouldn't I take her with me?"
Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's increasingly audacious behavior, the patriarch of the fox demon clan was furious.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, don't push your luck. Do you think I really wouldn't dare to kill you?" The patriarch of the fox demon clan was truly furious.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan could not see the other person's expression, but judging from the tone of his voice, the other person was truly angry. Therefore, it was best for him not to provoke him.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately walked out of the house. As for whether or not he would leave the fox demon clan, that was not up to the fox demons to decide, but rather up to Liu Xiaoyuan himself.
Once outside, the first thing Liu Xiaoyuan thought of was finding Su Xue.
However, before he had gone far, he was stopped by two elders of the fox demon clan, who asked Liu Xiaoyuan to leave.
Liu Xiaoyuan certainly wouldn't go out. He had finally gotten inside, and it would be a huge loss if he didn't even get to see Su Xue.
"Gentlemen, I am a member of the Alchemy Guild. I have other matters to discuss with your fox demon clan this time. You should think it over carefully. If you kick me out, you will be kicking out the Alchemy Guild as well." Liu Xiaoyuan immediately used the name of the Alchemy Guild to intimidate the two.
Upon hearing this, the two elders of the fox demon clan hesitated, as their fox demon clan relied on the Alchemy Guild for its elixirs.
Although it was a fair transaction where both parties got what they needed, from the president's perspective, the fox demon clan was the one who needed his help. The loss of the fox demon clan as a client wouldn't have a significant impact on the Alchemy Guild, but the fox demon clan couldn't afford to lose the Alchemy Guild.
Therefore, the fox demon clan must never offend the Alchemy Guild.
After hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the two exchanged a glance and decided it would be better to report the matter to the clan leader.
