Chapter 31: Rewarded with Elixir!
Yun Yun stepped forward to help Nalan Yanran up, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, you've gone too far."
"Too much?" Xiao Yan said calmly, "She struck first."
Yun Yun fell silent.
She knew Xiao Yan was telling the truth.
It was Yanran who struck first; Xiao Yan was merely retaliating.
But seeing her disciple beaten like this still made her uncomfortable.
"Yanran is my disciple. How do you place me, the sect leader, by hitting her in front of me?" Yun Yun said.
"That's your problem," Xiao Yan said. "It has nothing to do with me."
Yun Yun's face darkened, but she didn't know what to say.
Nalan Yanran nestled in Yun Yun's arms, cursing inwardly.
Xiao Yan, you bastard.
You wait, one day I'll make you pay the price.
But she also knew in her heart that she was no match for Xiao Yan.
Even if she were given another ten years, she might not be able to defeat Xiao Yan.
This feeling made her extremely frustrated.
"Teacher is too arrogant," Nalan Yanran said through gritted teeth. "You must stand up for me."
Yun Yun did not speak.
"Teacher, you are a three-star Dou Huang," Nalan Yanran said. "If you go all out, he definitely won't be your match."
Yun Yun glanced at her and said calmly, "That's enough."
Nalan Yanran reluctantly shut her mouth.
Yun Yun helped Nalan Yanran to the side and turned to look at Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, I've come today to demand an explanation for the Yunlan Sect."
Xiao Yan looked at her. "What explanation do you want?"
"You killed three elders of my Yunlan Sect: Ge Ye, the Fourth Elder, and the First Elder," Yun Yun said. "They were all members of the Yunlan Sect. You have to give an explanation for killing them."
"An explanation?" Xiao Yan said calmly, "They wanted to kill me, I killed them, isn't that an explanation?"
Yun Yun's face darkened. "You—"
"You think it's unfair?" Xiao Yan said. "Then what do you think is fair?"
"If people from your Yunlan Sect come to kill me, is it fair that I just stand there and let them kill me?"
Yun Yun was speechless.
"You are also a Dou Huang level expert, you should understand the law of the jungle," Xiao Yan said. "They were inferior in skill and deserved to die."
"That's how it is in the Dou Qi Continent; whoever has the bigger fist calls the shots."
"When your Yunlan Sect bullies others, have you ever given them an explanation?"
Yun Yun fell silent.
She knew Xiao Yan was telling the truth.
That's how it is in the Dou Qi Continent: strength is paramount, and the strong prey on the weak.
If you're not as skilled as others, you can only blame yourself if you die.
The Yunlan Sect has been rampant in the Jia Ma Empire for so many years, bullying countless small families and forces.
Did they ever give anyone an explanation back then?
Now that it's Yunlan Sect's turn to suffer a loss, she's the one demanding an explanation.
Yun Yun sighed inwardly.
"I have nothing to say about my defeat today," Yun Yun said. "Do with me as you please."
Nalan Yanran's expression changed. "Teacher, what are you saying?"
"He won't kill us," Yunyun said.
"How did you know?" Nalan Yanran asked.
"If he wanted to kill, he would have done it already," Yun Yun said. "He wouldn't be wasting so much breath talking to us."
Nalan Yanran paused for a moment, then fell silent.
Xiao Yan looked at Yun Yun and said calmly, "You seem to understand things quite well."
"I do have a good eye," Yun Yun said.
Just as Xiao Yan was about to speak, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
[The host has helped Xiao Yan defeat Yun Yun, the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect, and Nalan Yanran, and has received a reward.]
[Reward: Repaired version of the Imperial Extreme Pill recipe.]
[Effect: This can break the limitation that each Dou Huang expert can only take the Royal Extreme Pill once. After taking it, the strength can be directly increased by one to two stars. It can be repeated.]
[Note: The revised formula has no limit on the number of times it can be taken, and its efficacy does not decrease with repeated use.]
Xiao Yan's lips curled up slightly.
The restored version of Huangji Dan.
It is not limited by the number of times it can be taken, and its effectiveness does not decrease with the number of times it is taken.
What does this mean?
As long as there are enough medicinal herbs, he can help people improve their strength without limit.
Advancing from a one-star Dou Huang to the peak of a nine-star Dou Huang is not a problem.
This reward came at just the right time.
Xiao Yan smiled with satisfaction.
