The Ancient Sovereign

Murong Lier thought for a moment, not saying what she had just been thinking, but instead saying: "Actually, it's not that hard to find those medicinal ingredients that you wanted me to. It's said that Sect Leader had already started collecting them a few years ago, other than some precious medicinal ingredients, I've found the rest." After saying that, she paused for a moment before continuing: "Amongst the fire dans, other than forty-nine types of medicinal ingredients, the most precious one is none other than the Flaming Demon Beast s. I can obtain the other medicinal ingredients for you in a short period of time, but this …" She raised her head and looked at Han Yan with eyes full of helplessness, as if saying: "I really can't get this thing."    

Han Yan patted the storage bag on his waist and took out a round stone that looked like a rock, and waved it in front of Murong Lier.    

The rock was entirely red, only the size of a palm. It emitted a dense amount of spirit energy, and if one got a little closer, they would still be able to smell a faint fragrance.    

Not only was Murong Lier's cultivation profound, he was also extremely sensitive towards medicinal ingredients. He could tell that it was the Flaming Demon Beast with a single glance and could not help but take in a breath of cold air, as he cried out involuntarily: "This, this is the Flaming Demon Beast's demonic core?"    

Han Yan nodded his head and kept the demonic core. With a wave of his hand, Dong Die's storage bag landed in his hands. Within the storage bag, other than the shocking medicinal formulas and the jade slip, there were also countless other medicinal ingredients that he had never seen before.    

Seeing this, Han Yan took out all of the medicinal ingredients and said to Murong Lier: "Tell me the names of these medicinal ingredients."    

With a flick of her wrist, the herbs flew in front of her. She held a red herb in her hand and said, "This is the Hundred Year Old Fire Thread Grass …" With that, his finger moved, and all of the Hundred Year Old Flame Grass flew in front of Han Yan. Then, she took out a red leaf that resembled a parasol tree leaf and said, "This is the thousand-year-old phoenix leaf …" As she spoke of the name 'Phoenix Leaf', a flash of surprise passed through her eyes. She clearly hadn't expected that the sect master would have such a heavenly material in his storage pouch.     

An hour later, Murong Lier had finished dividing up all the medicinal ingredients, and all the medicinal ingredients were put away by Han Yan in the storage bag.    

Han Yan patted the storage bag on his waist and took out a jade slip.    

Aside from demonic core s, which required scorching devil s, there were forty-nine other types of medicinal ingredients. Of the forty-nine medicinal ingredients, the oldest would need to be a hundred years old, and the highest would need to be a thousand years old. For example, the phoenix leaf that he had just seen. Dong Die had a lot of storage bag s that he could use, but only forty-three of them could not use, and the remaining five did not exist.    

Han Yan's brows tightened, a look of disappointment flashed past his eyes, and he said: "We're still missing five, can you tell us what you wanted to say just now?!"    

Murong Lier was secretly amazed at Han Yan's scheming, allowing her to differentiate the medicinal ingredients but not letting her see the prescription. After hearing Han Yan's words, Murong Lier said: "I need the sect's medallion. As long as you hold onto that medallion, the disciples in the sect will be able to listen to my commands. Since there are not all the medicinal ingredients in Sect Leader's storage bag, Fellow Daoist, you can come with me to a Artifact Forging Valley, where the disciples of the valley are. "    

Han Yan thought about it in the blink of an eye and understood why Murong Lier let him go.    

There were three reasons to go there. First, if Zhou Qiguang died, the group of Artifact Forging Valley would definitely go there to take charge of the situation. Although Murong Lier had obtained a sect order badge, many disciples would suspect that she had killed Dong Die. Not only would they not allow her to become a Sect Leader, they would even kill her. As for the last reason, it was to go back and find medicinal ingredients. Every elder in porta sphenoidalis had a large amount of medicinal ingredients, so the disciples might be able to take out the missing ingredients.    

Thinking about that, Han Yan nodded his head: "Okay, I will go with you."    

When Murong Lier said this, he thought that Han Yan would ask her about the reason and explain it to him later. Who would have thought that not only did Han Yan not ask, he had even happily agreed. The look in Murong Lier's eyes changed. If Han Yan really saw through her thoughts in the blink of an eye, she would have thought that Han Yan was exceptionally scary.    

Murong Lier took in a deep breath of cool air and said, "Dao friend, I want to ask you a question, I don't know if I can say it."    

"Speak!" Han Yan said indifferently, "Don't call me dao friend anymore. If you treat me as your friend, you can call me by my name, I am Han Yan."    

Han Yan thought that he was very accurate, although he had not spent much time with Murong Lier, he could tell that she was a righteous person. Otherwise, when Dong Die secretly killed him, Murong Lier would not have come to notify him. Although the notification was unsuccessful, and he was even caught by the enemy, just from the enemy's starting point, he was sure that Murong Lier could become their friend. Since Zhou Qiguang was already dead, he had to find a partner. Only then would he be able to survive in this foreign continent.    

Seeing Han Yan's straightforward answer, Murong Lier was slightly startled, and said: "Fellow Daoist Han, I want to know, why do you believe in me and choose me to be your Sect Leader?"    

Han Yan's brows twitched, and a sincere smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as he said: "I feel that I can treat you as a friend."    

On the surface, these words did not sound like much. If one listened carefully, they would notice that when Han Yan said the word "friend", his tone was a little stiff. This detail might be overlooked by many people, but Murong Lier was smarter than others. With a single glance, he could tell that the man in front of him did not have many friends in the past. From that ice-cold gaze, it could be seen that the number of his friends could be counted on one hand.    

Murong Lier did not inquire about Han Yan's past. She knew that there were many things that could not be asked. She took a deep breath and said, "We will always be friends." These words were exceptionally firm, as if a man and woman in love had spoken the oath in their hearts.    

Han Yan looked up at the sky and asked three questions in a row, "Who are those sects? How many experts were there in their sect? Why did you attack the porta sphenoidalis? " When he killed those cultivators, he had doubts in his heart. If he did not promise Dong Die, he would have asked clearly. He knew a little about the Golden Crow Continent. With so many Cultivator In Golden Pill Stage s here to kill a second-rate sect, it was definitely not an ordinary sect war.    

In fact, even if Han Yan hadn't asked, Murong Lier was still prepared to say it out loud. He said slowly: "These five great sects are the strongest existences in the Western Region Continent, and even if they were placed in the entire Golden Crow Continent, they would be ranked in the top five." Speaking to here, she gave Han Yan an apologetic expression, and cupped her fists: "Fellow Daoist Han, I am truly sorry. When I told you to come, I did not explain in detail, because at that time, Sect Leader had instructed me to not tell you the truth. I'm afraid that if I say the enemies are too powerful, Zhou Qiguang will take the opportunity to rob and kill me in Artifact Forging Valley. "    

Han Yan waved her hand, indicating that she should not take it to heart, and continued speaking.    

Murong Lier heaved a sigh of relief, as he was truly afraid that Han Yan would blame her. Seeing that Han Yan did not have any intentions of blaming him, he continued: "The five great sects are Sky Desolate Valley, Treasure Pavilion, Medicinal Garden, Heavenly Array Hall and Martial Mountain. There is one Old Monster of Elemental Infant Stage in each of the five great sects, and it is said that there was one that appeared during this battle, but we did not see it. "    

These words sounded contradictory. Since he had seen it, why didn't he appear?    

Han Yan frowned, a look of confusion flashed across his face, and he gave Murong Lier a questioning look. He felt that Murong Lier had not said anything wrong and would not speak without thinking, so something must have happened.    

As expected, right after his divine sense met Murong Lier's eyes, Murong Lier began to speak, "A year ago, the five great sects had begun to attack the various great sects in the Western Region together. In just a few short months, more than half of the thousands of sects were annexed by them. If not for the fact that the sect had set up a strong array formation and they had not taken it down, the porta sphenoidalis would not have had the time to call for help. In that battle, we used the protectorate's great formation and used our treasures to forcefully defend ourselves. The treasures that we had saved up for a thousand years all crumbled in that battle, only then were we able to force them back. Otherwise, we would not go to the various sects to buy magical equipment. "    

After Han Yan finished listening, he carefully analyzed the situation and said, "Dao Friend Murong, since Old Monster of Elemental Infant Stage had appeared in the battles that came first, is the battle going to be extremely difficult?"    

Murong Lier nodded, and said: "It was said that it took half a month to settle that battle. That sect used the protectorate great formation to push back the disciples of the five big sects several times. Finally, the five big sects got angry and asked the Old Monster of Elemental Infant Stage to take action and destroy the great formation in one go. When she said that, her eyes were filled with shock. It was clear that she thought that the elemental infant stage cultivator was far more powerful than she could imagine.    

Han Yan then asked: "Since the five major sects have already been in action for so long, why haven't the other sects moved?"    

Murong Lier sighed, and said: "Fellow Daoist Han, you don't know this, but the five great sects have sealed off the news, and even used an array to seal the various great sects. Not only that, the five great sects had joined forces to cancel the monthly trade convention. Although the great sects were suspicious, they didn't dare to ask the reason. Going to the sects in private didn't end up with any results. In the end, he believed that something else could happen. Perhaps one month later, he could prepare for the biggest auction every 100 years, so he didn't put it to heart. After all, no one would have thought that the Five Great Sects would be so bold as to annex the Western Regions. "    

Murong Lier laughed bitterly, and said: "If I told you, you might not believe me, but when the five great sects took action, we could not understand why they did that. If Zhang Ziqiang did not bring it up, we would have thought that there was some kind of misunderstanding!" When she talked about Zhang Ziqiang, her eyes flashed with anger, she had obviously been teased by him before.    

As he spoke till here, Murong Lier suddenly remembered that the cultivators who had come to attack had all disappeared. He spread out his Spiritual Sense and discovered that there were corpses lying in a valley one hundred meters away, and with his Spiritual Sense, he discovered that even though those people were badly mutilated, his facial features could still be distinguished. When she saw that person's appearance, she immediately exclaimed and cried out involuntarily: "He's dead, ah! Zhen Dongming is dead, the Cultivator In Golden Pill Stage s of the Heavenly Desolate Valley are all dead? "    

Han Yan raised his head and looked to the east, and said: "Let's quickly leave this place. If I'm not right, it won't be long before Old Monster of Elemental Infant Stage finds us."    

Murong Lier laughed bitterly and said: "Even though the world is huge, the five great sects are still stronger. You killed so many people in one go, how can they let us go?"    

Han Yan thought for a moment, then said: "I have a place that will temporarily prevent the five great sects from finding you."    

"And after that?" Seeing Han Yan's fearless look, Murong Lier could not help but be startled.    

Han Yan clenched his fist, revealed a devilish cold smile, and muttered: "If they don't come looking for me, count them as smart. If they come, I don't mind killing them too. " There was no one who was right or wrong in the grievances and grudges within the Taoism. low cultivation can only be killed, and not blamed on others.    

Murong Lier opened his eyes wide, as if he recognized the man's eyes for the first time. She wanted to say something, but more than twenty streams of light rapidly approached them from a distance. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the two of them.
