ng Master Lai, I'm sorry. He didn't mean it. Just let it go for my sake."Due to Shi Tianci's relationship, she had met Lai Pengfei before. Although they weren't very familiar, at least they knew each...Inside the main hall of Longtou Mountain, several elders of the Dragon Clan gathered around Long Xuanzhen.

At this moment, his injuries have been treated by the family doctor and have improved considerably compared to before. However, the severed arm can no longer be restored.

Long Xuanwen said, "Patriarch, I'm not quite at ease with Xianyao Valley. Shall we send some more people there"

"There's no need. They have two cultivators at the level of Da Luo Xianjun. Sending more people there wouldn't do any good."

Long Xuanzhen waved his hand. "To keep the share of Xianyao Valley, it depends on the protective formation. I believe that within three days, the Luo family will be unable to break through."

Others nodded in agreement, finding the logic sound.

Now that Long Xuan is gravely injured, having lost an arm, neither Luo Bingyan nor Ye Bufan are opponents these people can withstand.

But the seventh-order defensive formation is different. Even if the opponent doesn't understand the way of breaking formations, they wouldn't be able to break through it even after three months of fighting.

Just then, a group of people tumbled and scrambled in from outside. It was Long Xuanwu and his men, returning after their defeat.

"Master, something terrible has happened. The people from the Luo family stole the Immortal Medicine Valley..."

Long Xuanwu was seething with rage. He had originally intended to ask the head of the family to avenge him.

He looked at Long Xuanzhen, who had lost an arm, and then at the other wounded Long Xuanwen beside him. He was stunned speechless.

It seems that the Luo family was telling the truth, this time the three-family alliance at Longtou Mountain was a complete failure.

Long Xuanzhen had just been holding onto a sliver of hope, but now, hearing this news, he jumped up in astonishment.

"What did you say"

Long Xuanwu swallowed hard: "I said that the Valley of Immortality Herbs was stolen by the Luo family."

"How is this possible"

Long Xuan's true face darkened with fury, "I told you to activate the protective formation and not engage in battle lightly!"

"You useless thing, you dare disobey my orders Don't you want to live anymore"

He was already seething with anger, and now he was beside himself with rage, his whole body radiating killing intent.

"The head of the household was enraged."

Long Xuanwu was startled and quickly said, "I followed the master's orders completely and didn't dare to fight at all."

Long Xuanzhen was taken aback: "How did the Xianyao Valley get lost"

"They had a young upstart over there who broke our seventh-rank protective formation with a single kick..."

He recounted the events, leaving everyone present speechless.

Everyone was surprised to find that Ye Bufan not only had powerful strength, but was also a seventh-order Immortal Array Master.

Long Xuan was so enraged that his teeth chattered: "Damn you, Ye Bufan! I will sooner or later cut you into a thousand pieces!"

Long Xuanwu was a little at a loss: "Patriarch, what should we do now Should we take back the Xian Yao Valley"

"You want to take what Can you even get it back"

Long Xuanzhen was completely scared off. After losing an arm this time, if he made another move, he was afraid his life would be in danger.

"Let's just leave it at that for now, don't act rashly. Wait for the disciples from Lingyun Sword Sect to arrive in three days, and we'll take revenge then!"

Xianyao Valley, Ye Bufan led everyone to successfully take over the share of Longtoushan, then turned his head and walked towards Gujiazhai.

Compared to the previously heavily fortified Longtoushan, Gujiazhai presented a completely different picture.

The guards here should have received the news early and cleared out.

Looking around, it was deserted. There wasn't even a single person, let alone any protective formations.

A group of people walked inside. The Gujiazhai side accounted for 30% of the shares, and a small bamboo building was built in the middle position.

An old man clad in hempen robes, with white beard and hair, sat under a bamboo pavilion. Before him stood an ancient bronze furnace.

The old man focused intently, his expression grave as he controlled the furnace fire within the alchemy crucible.

A few moments later, he tossed in the already prepared herbs one by one into the cauldron, clearly in the process of alchemy.

Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Refiner!

Upon seeing the old man, everyone immediately understood. They had long said that Gujia Village was backed by an eighth-rank elixir master, which was why their strength had increased so rapidly in recent years. This must be the person before them.

Alchemists, regardless of whether they are in the Lower Heaven Domain or the Middle Heaven Domain, hold an unparalleled position. Ordinary forces dare not provoke them.

The reason is simple, any cultivator will have dealings with immortal elixir masters. Besides, they have a wide network of contacts, which ordinary people can't afford to offend.

For this reason, when everyone arrived, they did not dare to disturb him, but only stood aside and watched quietly.

Ye Bufan had seen this old man when he last came to Xianyao Valley, but he had ignored him.

Seeing that the other party was currently refining alchemy, I followed suit and watched.

They were right. The old man before them was indeed Gongsun Hong, the eighth-rank immortal alchemist from Gujia Village.

At this moment, he was completely absorbed in his thoughts, seemingly oblivious to the arrival of others.

I have to say, this old man still has quite the presence. Sitting there, every gesture he makes exudes an air of mastery.

Controlling flames and throwing pills, everything is smooth and flowing, pleasing to the eye.

Time passed by minute by minute, turning into more than a few hours in the blink of an eye. A rich fragrance of medicinal herbs wafted through the air.

"Is this becoming a dan"

All eyes in the room were fixed with bated breath on the alchemy furnace, expecting a heavenly elixir to emerge. However, after a short while, a muffled "pop" sound echoed through the air.

A plume of black smoke billowed out from the alchemy furnace, clearly indicating that the elixir had failed to be successfully refined.

Although the elixir failed to be refined, everyone still dared not underestimate the old man.

Even if everyone isn't an alchemist, they know that alchemy isn't easy. Failure is commonplace.

Generally, if a celestial alchemist can produce one furnace of elixir from three furnaces, they are already considered a master with a very high level.

Gongsun Hong frowned, apparently also extremely disappointed by the failed alchemy.

He turned his head to glance at the crowd from the Luo family: "What are you doing here Didn't we agree that I shouldn't be disturbed while I was refining pills"

Lu WuShan stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Immortal Pill Master, just now the three families formed an alliance, and this XianYao Valley has now become property of my Lu family..."

Before he could finish his words, Gongsun Hong impatiently waved his hand.

"It matters not to whom it belongs, this old man only needs to refine his pills here."

I don't care if you are from the Luo family or the Gu family, the conditions are the same as before. Eighty percent of the medicinal materials here are at my disposal.

Each month, you will receive one eighth-grade pill, three seventh-grade pills, and ten sixth-grade pills.

Alright, get out of here quickly and don't delay this old man's alchemy!

His words were full of confidence, as if he wasn't worried at all about the other party refusing.

In fact, this is true. It's extremely difficult to get a Celestial Alchemist to refine pills.

Especially high-level elixir masters, sometimes it's hard to even catch a glimpse of them.

Gongsun Hong cooperated with the Gu family because he was interested in the medicinal herbs in Xianyao Valley.

Now that he is an eighth-rank Immortal Pill Master, he wants to advance to the ninth rank, which requires a sufficient supply of medicinal materials for practice, so he chose to stay here.

He cares about the resources here, and doesn't really mind who he collaborates with.

Lu WuShan showed a hint of delight. Having the help of an eighth-rank immortal alchemist was undoubtedly a great boon for the family's development.

However, he was not authorized to make such a big decision. He turned his head to look at Luo Wu Yan and Ye Bu Fan, seeking their opinions.y someone else.The crowd in the audience was completely stunned. They had known that the Tianshi Jiao sect was skilled in thunder magic, but why was this young man even more powerful than Zhang Tiansh...
