Chapter 1185: Taking Advantage of the Opportunity

There was a thundering sound as man and beast suddenly parted.

When the crowd opened their eyes, sore from the piercing light, they saw the Cold Radiance Snake explode.

Everyone except Sect Leader Lin An was momentarily stunned.

In this battle, Yang Yan’s performance indeed amazed everyone.

Especially at the moment when the Cold Radiance Snake’s absolute nullification was broken, light spots fell everywhere, and Yang Yan landed gently, resembling a War God.

With just one strike, he eliminated the Cold Radiance Snake that had launched a fatal attack!

Yang Yan indeed demonstrated his prowess among the disciples of the three sects.

"Chang Yu, go and deliver some of our alchemy pills to the Ancient Abyss Sect and Dharma Gate."

The Pill Sect Leader instructed the Daoist Child beside him.

"But Master, we’ve consumed some during the confrontation with Dharma Gate, and if we distribute them again, we won’t have any left..."

Chang Yu said, puzzled.

"Just do as I say."

The Pill Sect Leader interrupted Chang Yu.

"Yes, Sect Leader."

Then the Pill Sect Leader turned to his chief disciple, Ye Changqing, and asked:

"Changqing, why do you think the Cold Radiance Snake appeared in the middle perimeter of the Land of the North Cold?"

"Disciple doesn’t know."

Ye Changqing pondered for a while but couldn’t deduce the reason and replied.

"Alas, I fear this operation is far from simple."

The Pill Sect Leader seemed to have anticipated such a response and said solemnly, hands clasped behind his back.

"Sect Leader Lin, these alchemy pills are sent as per our leader’s instructions."

Seeing Sect Leader Lin An inquiring about the disciples’ injuries, Chang Yu stepped forward and said.

"Oh, thank you for the Pill Sect Leader’s generosity!"

Lin An glanced towards the Pill Sect direction, without any pretensions, called Lin Zimu over to receive the pills.

"Sect Leader, what’s the matter?"

"Zimu, distribute these pills, and keep the surplus."

Sect Leader Lin instructed.

"Yes!"

"Guo’Er, how are you? Are you alright?"

Seeing all the disciples start to recuperate, Lin An approached Guo Guoguo and asked with concern.

"Father, I’m fine. You should go check on Yang Yan first, as he was the main force!"

Guo Guoguo said and then dashed toward Yang Yan.

Sect Leader Lin An watched Guo Guoguo shake her head and also walked over to Yang Yan.

He had no worries about Yang Yan.

After all, Yang Yan had a Flawless Divine Body; even if the Cold Radiance Snake was in the late Foundation Establishment stage, it was irrelevant.

Yang Yan had eliminated quite a few cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

"Yang Yan, are you okay? No injuries, right?"

Guo Guoguo ran up to Yang Yan and began to ’check’ him herself.

"I’m fine, hey, don’t randomly touch!"

Yang Yan jumped to one side, avoiding Guo Guoguo by quite a distance.

"I say, Young Sect Leader Guo, are you taking the opportunity to take advantage of Wang?"

Zhuge Wushuang said slowly, arms crossed.

Guo Guoguo immediately realized, and her cheeks flushed crimson, hurriedly explaining with her head down:

"I... I didn’t..."

"Haha, dare to act, but afraid to admit it? Think we didn’t see it?"

Gongsun Ruyan echoed promptly.

Guo Guoguo felt even more embarrassed. Her inappropriate touch on Yang Yan’s body dawned on her at the moment, and now it just sounded worse with the girls’ comments.

"Yang Yan, are you okay? The Pill Sect has sent some alchemy pills; you should keep some."

Sect Leader Lin An walked over and spoke.

"Father! They’re bullying me!"

Upon seeing Sect Leader Lin An, Guo Guoguo started to complain.

However, the girls clearly weren’t afraid of this tactic, rolling their eyes collectively at Guo Guoguo, much to her annoyance.

"Alright, Guo’Er. Stop fooling around."

Sect Leader Lin An comforted gently.

"Thank you, Sect Leader, I’m fine."

Yang Yan cupped his hands towards the Sect Leader.

"That’s good."

"Sect Leader, are these pills really that effective?"

Yang Yan asked the Sect Leader while observing the pills.

"Absolutely, these are just low-grade pills; higher-grade ones are even more coveted treasures that can save lives in crisis."

"Oh? It must be difficult to refine them, right?"

Yang Yan continued to ask.

"Indeed, it is complex. As far as I know, making pills requires herbs, a medicine cauldron, a pill formula, and special flames, among others. This is just the basics; if you’re interested, you can consult the alchemists in my sect for guidance."

The Sect Leader replied.

"Thank you, Sect Leader, for the enlightenment."

Yang Yan bowed in gratitude to the Sect Leader.

Alchemy?

Could I possibly refine them?

Thinking of this, Yang Yan glanced at the Pill Sect Leader not far away.

Judging by their act of gifting pills, the Pill Sect Leader appears honorable!

Moreover, he thought, their disciples should be more adept in alchemy than the average person, and instruction from them should be beneficial.

"Wang, what are you looking at? The Sect Leader has walked far away."

Xiaocao said, waving a hand in front of Yang Yan.

"I wasn’t looking at anything, let’s go."

Yang Yan replied then followed the Sect Leader.

"Yes!"

Wood Grass and the other four immediately followed.

After a while, the disciples of the three sects had all recovered, and the leaders of the Pill Sect and Dharma Gate walked together towards Sect Leader Lin An, saying:

"Thanks to the Ancient Abyss Sect this time."

Dharma Gate’s Sect Leader Chu Yuxian cupped his hands towards Lin An.

"Sect Leader Chu, you’re too kind. Even if it wasn’t us, I believe the two of you could have eliminated that Cold Radiance Snake."

Lin An cupped his hands in return.

"Sect Leader Lin has a point, but about our herb..."

Chu Yuxian suddenly brought up the matter of the Snow Leisure Grass, fearing Sect Leader Lin might forget.

"The Snow Leisure Grass will be returned to you as we agreed before once the demon-slaying operation concluded."

Hearing this, Sect Leader Chu immediately said.

"Then thank you, Sect Leader Lin."

"No problem."

"In that case, Sect Leader Lin, we will part here."

Chu Yuxian said, cupping his hands once more to Sect Leader Lin with no regard for the Pill Sect Leader standing nearby, bidding farewell.

"Well... Alright, since Sect Leader Chu has other plans, let’s part ways here."

Sect Leader Lin was momentarily stunned by Chu Yuxian’s abrupt departure but soon reacted.

"Farewell!"

Chu Yuxian finished speaking and led his disciples away in another direction.

"Tch! Isn’t he just afraid we’ll snatch his herb? We disdain to walk with them."

A disciple from the Pill Sect whispered at the back.

The words immediately resonated among the Pill Sect disciples.

"Hmph! Isn’t that right? So eager to snatch our herbs; why hasn’t he stepped up to eliminate the Cold Radiance Snake?"

Another disciple echoed.

"Exactly, exactly, he’s been hiding at the back all along..."

Another disciple was about to continue speaking, but recoiled into silence from the Sect Leader’s glare.

"Thank you, Ancient Abyss Sect, for your assistance."

The Pill Sect Leader expressed gratitude to Sect Leader Lin.

"Sect Leader Pill, you’re too kind; we should thank you for the pill gift."

"Haha, Sect Leader Lin is courteous. May I ask if my Pill Sect could travel together with the Ancient Abyss Sect?"

The Pill Sect Leader promptly inquired.

"Haha, of course, that way our two sects can look out for each other."

Lin An cheerfully agreed.

"Indeed! Thank you, Sect Leader Lin!"

"No problem, no problem!"

Upon hearing the Pill Sect Leader’s words, Yang Yan was quite pleased.

This way, wouldn’t I have more opportunities to learn about alchemy?
