**Five Elements Purple Spirit Pill**
"Thank you."
The middle-aged beauty fell silent for a moment, her eyes flickering, before finally taking the pill.
"Chulóng has been a trouble for you lately. The Tianshan Sword Manor will surely repay this kindness in the future."
"You're being too kind. I simply have a good rapport with Chulóng."
Li Mo nodded slightly.
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully invested in 'Mei Yun' and helped her recover from her injuries.]
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully invested in 'Jiang Chulóng' and prevented her from being captured by the Drizzle Tower.]
[There are two investment rewards available. Would you like to claim them now?]
See, fate has arrived.
"No."
Li Mo silently recited in his heart; now was not the time to check the rewards.
For he noticed that, at some point, many figures had appeared in the sky above, all exuding powerful auras. Among them were several familiar faces—elders from the Qingyuan Sect, as well as others from different sects.
Clearly, they had been drawn here by the commotion caused by Shang Wu.
"This matter is no longer my concern."
Li Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief and took a recovery pill.
Little master, there’s more in this chapter, please click the next page to continue reading; it gets even more exciting!
In the blink of an eye, the figures in the sky descended into the small courtyard.
It felt a bit cramped...
"The Earthly Fiends of the Drizzle Tower died too cleanly."
"Elder Shang Wu, you left no trace behind after defeating him. Why not hold back a little?"
"Now we can't even catch a tongue to interrogate."
"I do things my way. If you don't like it, don't call me down the mountain in the future."
The atmosphere among the elders of the Qingyuan Sect felt oddly familiar...
The two inner disciples from the Fenyulin and the Chihai Gang twitched at the corners of their mouths, momentarily unable to interject.
A middle-aged man in a scholar's robe from Fenyulin stepped forward, frowning as he stared at the headless corpse of the judge.
He stepped on the chest of the corpse, and the head popped out:
"This is... the Lord of Ziyang?"
The elders of the Qingyuan Sect stopped their bickering and moved forward.
Qian Bufan exchanged glances with his companions, all seeing the gravity in each other's eyes.
The Lord of Ziyang was actually from the Drizzle Tower, hiding far too deeply.
But after hiding for so long, why did he choose to act personally today?
What was the reason?
Several inner disciples turned their gazes toward Mei Yun.
The scene fell into a moment of silence.
"Um..."
Li Mo spoke up, breaking the silence.
"I'm just a disciple who opened a hot pot restaurant. How about you all eat while we chat?"
Everyone: "......."
........
Back at the hot pot restaurant.
Li Mo didn’t concern himself with how the elders would handle the aftermath; he returned to his room.
Lying on the bed, he felt a stir in his heart.
"Claim."
[Claim successful.]
[Reward One: Qingmu Vitality Liquid.]
[Reward Two: Golden Crow Transformation Visualization Chart.]
[Qingmu Vitality Liquid]: "A single drop can revive the dead, restore flesh and bone, and make stubborn stones bloom, containing vibrant life force."
[Golden Crow Transformation Visualization Chart]: "Illustrates the scene of the true spirit Golden Crow soaring, containing boundless mysteries. By entering this visualization, one can transform into the scene of nine suns soaring in the sky!"
**Chapter 106: Lingerie of Interest - Ying Bing**
Inside the tightly shut hot pot restaurant.
"Your martial arts seem to originate from the Tianshan Sword Manor?" Qian Bufan, well-versed in various matters, inquired.
He picked up a slice of beef.
Not to mention, where did Li Zhenchuan get this hot pot recipe? It’s quite fragrant.
"Yes."
Mei Yun did not deny it.
Though she didn’t explicitly state it, she had already revealed her identity to everyone.
Mei Jian, among the plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum, once ranked 41st on the Human Ranking of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, later voluntarily left the Tianshan Sword Manor.
"I am Qian Bufan, the external affairs elder of the Qingyuan Sect."
Qian Bufan introduced himself in turn, including Shang Wu.
Upon hearing Shang Wu's name, Mei Yun glanced at the woman in palace attire who was cooking lamb slices, her gaze shifting slightly.
After a moment of silence, she spoke:
"You are all significant figures in the Eastern Wilderness."
"I believe that what I know and can share should be made known to you."
Qian Bufan picked up a piece of dried tofu, gauging the expressions of the others before nodding:
"I'm all ears."
"I don't know why the Drizzle Tower established a branch here, but it should have no connection to the Demon Summoning Sect."
"The lord with the surname Cui is privately collaborating with the Demon Summoning Sect."
Demon Summoning Sect.
Upon hearing these three words, everyone grew serious.
"What does the Demon Summoning Sect want?" the middle-aged man in the scholar's robe from Fenyulin asked.
"They have discovered a Blood Phoenix Secret Realm."
As her words fell, it was as if a giant stone had been thrown into a calm lake.
Qian Bufan gasped, simultaneously swallowing a piece of rice tofu.
Blood Phoenix Secret Realm.
It is said that the Blood Phoenix is a manifestation of one of the souls of the Nine-Colored Primordial Phoenix, immortal and indestructible. Each time it dies, it can undergo a miraculous rebirth.
Every time it dies and is reborn, its old body falls, creating a Blood Phoenix Secret Realm at the site of its fall.
Thus, there may be more than one such realm.
There might be some exaggeration in this, as the true Blood Phoenix has long since vanished from the world.
Yet countless powerful beings still flock to it.
Immortal and indestructible.
What a captivating phrase.
Could there be a place in the barren Eastern Wilderness where the Blood Phoenix once fell?
"The location is in Qinghe County; that’s all I know."
"Unfortunately, the Trial of the Abyss ended early, so I cannot provide more information."
Mei Yun shook her head slightly.
Qinghe County?
The middle-aged man in the scholar's robe from Fenyulin's eyes suddenly lit up.
Qinghe County is very close to them in Fenyulin.
However...
Well, proximity doesn’t matter; judging by everyone’s expressions, it was clear that no one cared about a little distance.
"Unfortunately, all the disciples of the Drizzle Tower have perished..."
"That’s not entirely true."
Mei Yun shook her head.
"The top three of the Trial of the Abyss are still alive."
"Who are the three? I'll go capture them!"
"I'll go; Fenyulin is quite adept at persuading people with reason. I’ll make sure they tell us everything."
"Li Mo, Ying Bing, Xiao Qin."
"......"
All the inner disciples looked at Elder Qian with skeptical eyes.
Wait a minute.
Isn’t your Qingyuan Sect in some sort of strategic partnership with the Drizzle Tower?
Otherwise, how come the top three are all your disciples?!
"What have they done?"
Elder Qian looked perplexed. I sent you all to the capital to maintain order and prevent the Drizzle Tower from causing trouble.
I didn’t ask you to join in directly!
He didn’t know exactly what had happened in the capital, so he turned to Shang Wu:
"Aren't they running a hot pot restaurant?"
"Yeah, look at how well business is doing downstairs. They’re using this method to gather intelligence."
Shang Wu said nonchalantly.
All the inner disciples: "....."
It seems they now understand why the Trial of the Abyss ended early.
"Speaking of which, if they hadn’t informed Elder Shang Wu in time, by the time we arrived, it might have been too late."
Qian Bufan seriously took a bite of duck intestines, affirming that the Qingyuan Sect's stance was absolutely correct.
"Our Qingyuan Sect will also reward them for their contributions."
He was thinking ahead.
If the Drizzle Tower still has designs on the Ziyang Manor in the future, having Li Mo and the others around would allow them to grasp the situation immediately.
"Ying Bing managed to slay a killer from the Observation Realm, which is indeed quite remarkable." The middle-aged man in the scholar's robe from Fenyulin spoke.
The gap between Inner Breath and Observation Realm is far greater than that between Blood Qi and Inner Breath.
Many exceptionally talented individuals in the Blood Qi Realm find it very difficult to remain undefeated against opponents a realm lower than them when they reach the Inner Breath Realm.
The group discussed some details, agreed to keep in touch, and then picked up their chopsticks.
"We’ve been talking for so long, I’m starving."
"Let’s eat."
"After eating, we still have to report back to the sect... huh?"
"Where are the dishes?"
"Oh right, how strange, there were so many dishes just now." Qian Bufan chewed thoughtfully on the last piece of beef tripe.
.......
"Golden Crow Transformation Visualization Chart."
"The sun of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was once transformed from the Golden Crow, right?"
Li Mo pondered, looking up at the sky.
Even though he was still in the Inner Breath Realm, he found the three suns blinding and hard to look at.
For ordinary people, they were simply too dazzling.
But having followed Shang Wu, Li Mo had begun to grasp the concept of 'intention,' and he suddenly felt a scorching dryness deep within his soul.
He couldn’t look for too long.
Li Mo quickly averted his gaze.
He didn’t know which parts of the visualization chart were particularly precious.
But there was no doubt that the Golden Crow Transformation Visualization Chart he possessed was among the best.
After all, it had come from the little princess Jiang.
