Secret Connections in 2003

rive These little brats below can't hold on any longer." Gujianzong's other great cultivator, Mad Wind Sword Scimitar South, had a face like a date, a waist like a water barrel, and wore a dark purple...At the same time, Wu Changlian hated Lu Xiaitian even more in his heart. This kid was really good at talking.

“Brother Wu, why are you so eager to get rid of this junior If there’s any unresolvable hatred between you, why not tell me the old man” Facing Wu Changlian’s terrifying gaze, Nan Chendu pretended not to see it, with a smiling face. He seemed like a good old gentleman.

"The grievances between me and this kid can't be resolved. Daoist Nanchen, it's best not to interfere." Wu Changlian's voice was icy cold. If it were in a different situation, he could be polite to this old geezer, but the ethereal sword embryo within Lu Xiaottian was something he had to get no matter what. How could he possibly negotiate

“My esteemed colleague Yuan Tang just happens to be lacking a fourth-rank Alchemy King. This young friend is about to ascend to the fourth rank, such a rare talent, wouldn't it be a pity to kill him outright With your brother Wu's strength, this young friend shouldn't really be able to truly offend you. For such a junior, there's no need to go all out and eliminate him. If there are any offenses, my Yuan Tang will offer a generous gift to your brother Wu as an apology.”

Nán Chén Dù let out a hearty laugh, completely unfazed by Wū Chángliàn's threatening tone. He didn't even wait for Wū Chángliàn to speak before shifting his attention to Lù Xiǎo Tiān, "Young friend, you are about to ascend to the rank of Fourth Rank Alchemist. Be truthful with me, otherwise, this old man might not be able to protect you."

“Hundreds of years ago, in Yuanling City, I helped the members of the Zhūfó Buddhist Sect refine Silver Leaf Heart Pills. At the time, a high-ranking member of the sect was injured, and it was this Silver Leaf Heart Pill that kept him alive and allowed him to recover. I don't have any spiritual objects for swearing oaths at hand. If any of you seniors have them, I am willing to swear an oath immediately. Everything I said is true. If even a single word is false, I will be struck by five thunderbolts, and my form and spirit will be destroyed.” Hearing Nan Chen’s words, Lu Xiaoteng was overjoyed and hurriedly added, “As long as the other party is willing to intervene, this dead end can be revitalized immediately."

“Hundreds of years ago, the one who used Yinye Fo Xindan to sustain his life in Yuanling City should have been Mingkong that bald donkey. It's true, it was done by two strongmen from my ghost way.” Mingshen Huomo looked at Lu Xiaitian with a look of surprise. She had heard about this matter after all, as she knew the people who did it.

"Oh Silver Leaf Compassionate Heart Pill" Nan Chen Du was not someone ignorant of the world, and even within their sect there was a formidable figure named Li Dan Wang who specialized in refining Buddhist sect spirit pills. Naturally, he knew the potency of this pill.

“I also have a skilled alchemist named Dan Wang in my academy. When the time comes, you should get to know him well. You might gain something from your exchange.” Nan Chen du felt very pleased upon hearing this.

“Nan Chen Daoist friend, for the sake of a junior whom we have never met, you’ve chosen to create enmity with me. I’m afraid it’s not worth it, is it” Wu Changlian’s face was ashen. Although Ming Shen Huo Mu and Dong Yi Xiong Huang didn’t show any intention of interfering, this Nan Chen Du was also a formidable opponent.

"I've been refining pills in the Yuetang for over a hundred years. Back when I was in Luan Qingxu, I worked closely with a council member named Dong Feng from Yuetang for a long time. We were just low-ranking, never reaching a level that would disturb the Yuetang's Nascent Soul elders." Lu Xia Tian said calmly.

"Haha, Brother Wu, did you hear that I'm not just making things up to you. Since King Lu Dan is my relative, I can't just stand by and do nothing." Nan Chen Du laughed even louder upon hearing this. It was truly like someone had sent a pillow just as he was about to fall asleep. Although they were at this level where only interests mattered, having a good excuse in this situation would undoubtedly be more beneficial.

"Brother Wu, cultivating a peak-three-rank alchemist is not easy. If even Alchemist Lu can't maintain it properly, how will our Yuan Hall stand firm in the chaotic demon domain in the future Let me offer Brother Wu a generous gift from Yuan Hall, and let this matter be settled."

“I need a furnace for my cultivation, and only Lu Xia Tian will do. No one else can replace him.” Wu Chang Lian's tone was calm, but only he knew the fury raging in his heart. If not for traveling with these troublesome fellows, how would so many things have gone wrong

In fact, if it weren't for so many powerful fusion realm cultivators fighting, with every step causing the ground to collapse and mountains to crumble, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't have been forced out from his hiding place.

"So it seems, there's no way to resolve this then." Nan Chenyu narrowed his eyes, but privately transmitted a voice message to Wu Changlian, "Wu brother, help me obtain the Dragon Vein Dark Crystal, and after we succeed, I will give you Lu Xiaottian. How about that"

Although Lu Xiaitian is valuable, he is just a third-rank alchemist. If he obtains the Dragon Pattern Dark Crystal, he might be able to break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. The gap between the middle and late stages is enormous. As long as he reaches the later stage, what would a mere third-rank alchemist be Moreover, judging from Wu Changlian's current attitude, it seems unlikely that he will give up easily unless he achieves his goal. Originally, he was not at a significant advantage compared to the likes of Dong Yixiong. If Wu Changlian intends to make him an enemy, getting what he wants will become even more difficult.

“If I disagree” Seeing that he was about to succeed, but being blocked like this, Wu Changlian certainly wouldn't be happy.

“I'm not the only one in our sect who has reached the Nascent Soul stage. If you, Brother Wu, refuse, I'll have to contact other fellow disciples and take out Lord Lu Dan. In my fellow disciples' eyes, a Dan Wang who can refine Silver Leaf Buddha Heart Pills is more respected than me.” Upon hearing Wu Changlian's reply, Nan Chen smiled nonchalantly.

“I can only promise to help you get that Dragon Scale Dark Crystal as much as possible. As for whether or not you succeed, it is not within my consideration. If you agree, then fine. If you disagree, don't blame me for making things difficult for you.” Although the other party was also in the middle stage of integration, compared to Ye City Lord who had refined his sword embryo to such a pure state back then, he was still lacking some fire. Wu Changlian had made progress in kendo over the past few hundred years, but he was not afraid of Nan Chen Du's many years. To say that the only thing that made him extremely wary here was the transformed middle-aged woman in black gauze, Ming Shen Huo Mu.

"Alright, as long as you lend me a hand at the crucial moment, I'll give Lu Xia Tian to you afterward. But on the surface, you still need to act like an enemy of mine, so as not to arouse suspicion from others." Nan Chen Du pondered for a moment in his heart before agreeing to Wu Chang Lian's request.

“Since that’s the case, you better protect this person well and keep them by your side at all times. Don't give me any chance.” After secretly colluding with Nandao, Wu Changlian wore a cold smile with a hint of anger on his face.

"Whether or not we can protect Lu Danwang, we'll just have to wait and see." Nán Chén said in a rather blunt tone.

“Well, we've wasted quite a bit of time. I wonder how Zihuo Langjun is doing now. We've been busy making preparations, so we can't let him take the lead.”

Dong Yi Xiong Huang and Ming Chen Huo Mu, two nature spirits, were happy to see Wu Chang Lian, who they both disliked. In the end, when they competed for treasures, Nan Chen Du faced more constraints.
