“Truly trash. Something so obvious—why even ask again? Of course we want to enjoy these two women. Do you want to watch? Get lost, idiot!” Sun Zhen was the one who talked the most. He relied entirely on Bin Chong’s expertise in this situation. Seeing that Chen Nian did not move at all, he spoke again. “Looks like you really want to be tortured to death first!”Swoosh!Sun Zhen leapt forward, his clawed hand striking out first. He intended to grab Chen Nian’s neck and twist it. Unfortunately, that remained nothing more than a fantasy. Chen Nian simply waved his hand, and in that instant, the contempt in Sun Zhen’s eyes turned into overwhelming shock.The force of that push caused his abdomen to cave in, his internal organs to tremble violently, and blood surged up into his throat.Sun Zhen was filled with regret. Blood spurted from his mouth, and the sweet metallic taste made him realize that his opponent was not weak and without cultivation—but rather far too powerful for him to perce

On this Demon Continent, perhaps only a handful of people could absorb the energy of nature. Thus, Chen Nian was greatly blessed by the heaven and earth energy that would otherwise go to waste. It was just that he had not yet found the materials to refine an Advancement Pill that would allow him to break free from his shackles. He was still at the Peak Stage of the God Emperor Realm—only an onion-skin’s thickness away from the next level: the Initial Stage of the Fusion Realm.Yet even if the gap was as thin as a slice of onion, the distance between the two realms could not be sensed at all.The sun replaced the moon. Four figures floated in the air, swiftly shooting toward the Medicine Valley. They had now entered the territory of the Shang Empire. Earlier, they had been stopped to confirm their purpose for entering. However, since Chen Nian possessed a golden plaque from the imperial palace and stated that they were heading to the Medicine Valley, they were allowed to pass after pay

“Welcome, Senior, to our residence. We did not know that you were a Grandmaster. If only you had shown some proof, we would certainly have served you properly. We regret our delay in realizing this,” Gwang Jo said. He looked at Chen Nian while introducing the person beside him.“This is the Eldest Prince of the Shang Empire. He is called this because he is a legend in his own right. But unfortunately, he suffers from something.” At this point, Gwang Jo stopped speaking, as he felt uncomfortable continuing.Chen Nian looked at the man referred to as the Eldest Prince. He could sense that something was wrong. It was as if there was energy restrained within him, unable to be released, creating a disturbing thought that ultimately hindered the improvement of his strength.“Your Highness, I am certain that someone who can use the greatest technique of an Alchemist like this will be able to create medicine for you.” Gwang Jo was very confident in his judgment. He had devoted himself to the

“Very good. We can definitely finish him off now. Earlier, it seemed he also brought two fairly beautiful women. We can split them between us,” Choi Ji said immediately, emphasizing this point.It turned out the two of them were the Great Elder and Choi Ji. The Great Elder had already reached the early stage of the Cave Realm. Meanwhile, Choi Ji was at the peak of the Fusion stage.If Choi Ji alone attacked Chen Nian, it was certain that Chen Nian would be severely injured and might even end up dead. But they were overthinking things.Their plan to use a smoke bomb was simply because they did not want to cause a disturbance. Also, since they could not see Chen Nian’s cultivation level, caution was part of their survival instinct. This step was already very appropriate.After the smoke began to fade, they moved closer.From a distance, Chen Nian could feel the extraordinary fluctuations of power from these two figures. Although he possessed many techniques, various defenses, and format

“Now let’s talk about your mistake!” Chen Nian turned toward the Valley Leader. He said, “I ask Patriarch Gwang to uphold justice for me. As everyone knows, I brought three people with me, and now it seems they have been poisoned just like this Great Elder. They are inside the residence. I leave all decisions to Patriarch!”“I will handle this for you.” Gwang Jo could not ignore this matter. It was a disgrace to the Valley. If he had not been caught red-handed like this, perhaps he could have merely demoted the Great Elder to an ordinary elder. But now that things had gone this far, it had to be dealt with more seriously. “Treat your companions first. Let me take care of this,” Patriarch Gwang Jo said, looking at the Great Elder with a trace of guilt.Kin Dai had followed the Medicine Valley for a long time—since he was a teenager. They had gone through many things together and had been very good friends. And now, he had to make a difficult decision.Chen Nian walked to the side of th
