108: The mysterious furnace

The Flying Ship Warship headed towards Dragon Abyss.

At the same time, not far from Cloud Mist Mountain, deep underground, there was a deep abyss.

The underground abyss was terrifying and gloomy, as if it were the eighteen layers of Hell.

A sharp, piercing sound echoed.

"Gah gah gah! What have you decided?"

"I agree!"

"Gah gah gah... Welcome to our ranks, you've made a very correct decision..."

Li Daoxuan gained a lot from this trip and even eliminated an enemy along the way. As for the Four Seas Commerce League's properties, Li Daoxuan decided to hand them over to his son, Li Chen, to manage.

Since Li Chen wanted to gain experience, Li Daoxuan would find something for him to do.

Li Daoxuan even considered visiting the Helian Family, but it was just a thought.

The Helian Family was terrified last time, so they hadn't made any moves recently, but this didn't mean the Helian Family would let themselves be slaughtered.

Since they could become a hidden cultivation Family, they must have many trump cards that others didn't know about.

Although he had a Flying Ship Warship, it would be dire if the Flying Ship Warship got trapped.

To be safe, he would wait until he was stronger before settling accounts with them.

Upon returning to Dragon Abyss, Li Daoxuan saw the anxious Xiao Linger.

"Husband, you're back! If you hadn't returned, something bad would have happened."

"What's wrong?" Li Daoxuan looked at Xiao Linger, puzzled.

Xiao Linger quickly took out that mysterious Pill Furnace, but the Pill Furnace seemed to be... constantly struggling, while Xiao Linger held on tightly, refusing to let go.

"What's wrong with this Pill Furnace?"

Xiao Linger pouted angrily, "This heartless thing, it... it actually despises me!"

Li Daoxuan found it amusing. This Pill Furnace was indeed mysterious. It seemed that with continuous repairs, its original dilapidated appearance had greatly improved.

At least now it looked like a Pill Furnace.

Also, the consciousness of this Pill Furnace had strengthened.

Previously, this Pill Furnace only had an instinctive consciousness, which was Alchemy.

But now it had emotions, which meant that a part of this Pill Furnace's consciousness had recovered.

"Hahahaha... Why does it despise you?"

Xiao Linger got even angrier, "Husband, you're still laughing at me! This Pill Furnace despises me for being too weak."

"It even said not to let me use it to refine those trashy Medicinal Pills anymore."

Xiao Linger possessed a Fire Spiritual Root, and later, under Li Daoxuan's guidance and development, she truly became an Alchemist.

Xiao Linger was now a genuine second-rank Alchemist.

That mysterious Pill Furnace had always been in her hands, but the repair work was all done by Li Daoxuan. The more Li Daoxuan repaired it, the colder his heart became.

The demands of this fellow were simply too high; the Materials it required were very difficult to find.

"Then I'll give you a few more Pill Furnaces." Li Daoxuan waved his hand, and three Pill Furnaces appeared before Ling'er.

A second-rank, third-rank, and fourth-rank Pill Furnace, enough for her to use for a long time.

Xiao Linger happily accepted them. As soon as she loosened her small hand, the mysterious Pill Furnace flew directly towards Li Daoxuan, then joyfully circled around him.

"This little fellow is quite intelligent. It seems your origin must be extraordinary."

This mysterious Pill Furnace also seemed to know that Li Daoxuan was leaving, and only by following Li Daoxuan could it gain more benefits.

Just like that, the mysterious Pill Furnace ultimately returned to Li Daoxuan's hands.

In the evening, Li Daoxuan went to Bing'er and Ling'er's room. The two women were immediately delighted to see Li Daoxuan.

Now, their bodies had long since recovered to their Peak state.

It was time to put having children on the agenda. The two women also knew time was pressing, so they were exceptionally diligent.

Li Daoxuan, however, felt very relaxed; the two women were still too weak.

"Bing'er, Ling'er, I want to ask you something."

"Husband, please ask."

"Who are your enemies? Do you know?"

The two women lay on either side of Li Daoxuan. Hearing Li Daoxuan ask this question, they were both stunned and replied, "How could we not know? We'll never forget it in this lifetime."

"How about I take you to seek revenge tomorrow?"

The two women felt a warmth in their hearts but still refused, saying, "Husband, let us personally destroy our enemies."

"Actually, with our current strength as sisters, we can already destroy them."

Li Daoxuan could only give up.

In the following days, Li Daoxuan would appear and disappear mysteriously during the day, often entering and exiting the Dark Night Forest.

At night, he would accompany the Xiao Family Sisters.

All the women felt that Li Daoxuan had been acting mysteriously recently, and they didn't know what he was doing.

Li Daoxuan was a Beast Tamer, so of course, he had to make good use of this talent.

Of course, Li Daoxuan didn't just want to contract a few Yao Beasts; he had a bigger goal.

Li Daoxuan was always worried that his Family would encounter trouble after he left.

Therefore, he wanted to leave another contingency, to set up another line of defense.

The reason he often entered and exited the Dark Night Forest was to find a Yao King.

To see if he could reach an agreement with the Yao King.

But for some reason, he hadn't encountered a single Yao King, which was very strange.

"Could it be that those Yao Kings are all hiding?"

According to the intelligence gathered by the Heavenly Dao Sect, there were at least four Yao Kings in this Dark Night Forest, and it was unclear if there were any more hidden ones.

Li Daoxuan had seen a Yao King before.

Therefore, he finally set his sights on that Azure Sky Bull Python. After all, this Yao King had appeared before, and its territory was not difficult to find.

"Is this guy asleep?"

"Why can't I find it?"

Li Daoxuan was about to give up when suddenly, a voice from behind startled him.

"Boy, are you looking for me?"

"My goodness! Can you not scare people?" Li Daoxuan jumped, almost summoning the Tongtian Pagoda to escape.

One had to know that this was already the inner area of the Dark Forest; it was possible to be accidentally killed here.

Li Daoxuan turned around and saw a miniature Azure Sky Bull Python with a bull's head and a snake's body on a towering ancient tree, staring intently at Li Daoxuan.

"You can speak human language?"

"Isn't that obvious? I am a Yao King; even transforming into human form is easy, let alone speaking human language."

This was the Azure Sky Bull Python Yao King that had appeared last time. Li Daoxuan could feel a terrifying power contained within its small body.

"I'm here to discuss a business deal with you. Are you interested?"

The Azure Ox Python was stunned, and a strange light appeared in its eyes. It had fought with humans many times, but this was the first time it was doing business with a human.

The Azure Sky Bull Python immediately became interested: "Tell me, what kind of business is it?"

Li Daoxuan said confidently, "Actually, I am an Alchemist, and a very powerful one at that."

"So?"

"Do you think Medicinal Pills are useful to me?"

The Azure Sky Bull Python was a bit indifferent. Medicinal Pills were practically useless to a Yao Beast of its Realm.

Moreover, what was Li Daoxuan's cultivation?

Could he refine the Medicinal Pills it needed?

No!
