"Hmm... Teacher, Brother Yang seemed to be laughing at me just now. What did he say? Did you hear it?" Xiao Yan looked in the direction Chen Yang had left, asking Yao Lao with a puzzled expression in his mind.
Yao Lao, who was currently studying the demonic poison spot, was startled at first, then stroked his beard and smiled, "It's nothing, you should hurry up and organize!"
Yao Lao ultimately chose not to betray Chen Yang. After all, although Chen Yang's words were crude and his 'congratulations on getting rich' behavior was shameless, Xiao Yan was the one who benefited in the end.
The things Xiao Yan obtained today would basically all be converted into resources for him to purchase Medicinal Pills from Chen Yang later, including the medicinal herbs he could use.
So, let Xiao Yan enjoy himself for a bit, after all, he won't be happy for many days!
"Oh!" Xiao Yan scratched his head, turned to look in the direction Chen Yang had left, then shook his head again and continued organizing!
...Night!
Myriad Scorpion Gate was utterly silent.
Because the entire Myriad Scorpion Gate, including the poisonous insects, had been vertically split in half by Yao Lao, there was no one left alive in Myriad Scorpion Gate except Chen Yang and the others.
And because Myriad Scorpion Gate had such a notorious reputation, the non-Myriad Scorpion Gate Dou Zong from the Izumo Empire did not dare to approach easily. So even though a battle between Dou Zong experts broke out in Myriad Scorpion Gate today, it still didn't attract anyone to investigate.
After all, Myriad Scorpion Gate was not the Cloud Mist Sect. If Cloud Mist Sect members got angry, they would at most humiliate you. But if Myriad Scorpion Gate members got angry, they might make your life worse than death!
Dinner was the masterpiece of Qing Lin and Xiao Yi Xian. Chen Yang felt that he could never leave Xiao Yi Xian. Just the girl's cooking skills alone had completely conquered his stomach.
And Qing Lin's service had now become an indispensable part of Chen Yang's life. Sometimes, when Qing Lin was in seclusion, he would subconsciously call out to the little girl.
At the dinner table, Chen Yang and the other three ate heartily. Xiao Yan, having finished dividing the spoils, was in an extremely cheerful mood, indescribable in words, just eating incessantly!
It wasn't until Chen Yang and the others finished eating and started rubbing their bellies that Yao Lao suddenly floated out of the bone ring.
"Kid Chen, devouring a strange fire is no child's play. You also have a strange fire, so you should know the dangers involved. If you're not fully prepared, it's better to wait a few more days!" Yao Lao looked at Chen Yang with a serious expression.
"That's right, Brother Yang, even with the ice heart pill you refined for me, I barely managed to devour the Green Lotus Core Flame by the skin of my teeth. And that Netherworld Poison Flame still has toxicity, so even more caution is needed!" Xiao Yan also said with a serious expression.
After experiencing so much with Chen Yang and the others, he and Xiao Yi Xian were considered friends. Even if it wasn't for Chen Yang's Face, he would still worry about something happening to Xiao Yi Xian.
"I've been ready for a long time." How could Chen Yang not have prepared in advance?
Saying that, he began to pull things out of his storage ring.
"I refined another ice heart pill!"
"I also have blood lotus pills, and they're even Rank 6!"
"I also have spirit absorption in my collection!"
"I've prepared three Rank 7 detoxification pills!"
"In addition, with Xian'er Cultivating the Earth Rank high-grade Cultivation Technique, Heavenly Poison Nether Art, unless a Dou Di suddenly appears to kill Xian'er while she's devouring the strange fire, everything will be foolproof!" Chen Yang said confidently.
"That's good, it seems this old man worried too much. How could a cautious person like you not have thought of these things in advance?" Yao Lao chuckled, stroking his beard and sighing with emotion.
"Thank you, Yao Lao and Brother Yan, for your concern!" Xiao Yi Xian looked at Yao Lao and Xiao Yan, revealing a faint smile.
"Sister-in-law Xiao Yixian, there's no need for that. Given my relationship with Brother Yang, saying thank you makes us seem like strangers!" Xiao Yan chuckled.
Chen Yang reached out and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, then grabbed his wrist, carefully inspecting it with his Soul Power to confirm that the demonic poison spot would not erupt for three to five months, only then feeling relieved.
Although this demonic poison spot was dangerous, it was also Xiao Yan's Opportunity. In the original plot, Xiao Yan didn't refine it until he Breakthrough to Dou Zong, and he even Breakthrough because of it. Xie Bi Yan could be considered to have contributed to Emperor Yan's path to Dou Di.
However, this thing would indeed be fatal once it erupted. Chen Yang planned to wait until Xiao Yi Xian devoured the Netherworld Poison Flame, then see if he could help Xiao Yan suppress it more. If not, he would wait until they went to Jia Nan Academy in a few days, and he became a Dou Zun before helping Xiao Yan deal with it.
"If this demonic poison spot can be handled well, once you become a Dou Zong, refine it with a strange fire, and Xie Bi Yan's lifelong Dou Qi might be at your disposal!" Chen Yang said with a smile.
"Dou Zong is still very far away for me. Right now, I just need to not be killed by it!" Xiao Yan said with a bitter smile.
"Don't worry, even if your Sister-in-law Xiao Yixian can't solve your problem after devouring the Netherworld Poison Flame, I, your brother, can help you deal with it after I become a Dou Zun!" Chen Yang said.
"Then thank you, Brother Yang!" Xiao Yan said cheerfully... Early the next morning, Chen Yang and the others arrived at the back mountain of Myriad Scorpion Gate.
As they delved deeper, the terrifying poisonous miasma gradually grew denser.
"This should be the source of energy for the Myriad Scorpion Gate's previous emerald green poison array!" Yao Lao had already possessed Xiao Yan, and it was he who was speaking now.
"In front of a strange fire, this poisonous miasma is harmless!" Chen Yang carried Qing Lin on his back, and the strange fire enveloped them both, so there was no big problem.
