The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 1168 - 615: Rapid Advancement (Part 2)
"Beihan Lie," he shouted. "Listen, this really isn't a big deal. Just think about it. Since you have a closer relationship with that big dog, you could say you've profited from the disaster. From now on, your beast control magic might become even more incredible..." Yan Xiaobao indeed wanted to comfort Beihan Lie, but before he even completed his speech, Beihan Lie erupted with fury.
Beihan Feng's face turned grim as he stepped forward, smashing his palm into a spell. The formation trembled, and Yan Xiaobao's heart started pounding.
At this point, Xiangyun Peak's inner disciples couldn't stand by idly any longer. Even though they weren't very familiar with Yan Xiaobao, if they just stood aside while a group of Sunset Peak disciples did whatever they wanted, Xiangyun Peak's internal prestige would plummet.
"Put your hands down!" people started shouting.
Xiangyun Peak's inner disciples flew forward to intervene, but before they reached the Immortal Cave, Sunset Peak's disciples blocked their path. No fatal combat broke out; all the Sunset Peak disciples had to do was obstruct the path of Xiangyun Peak's disciples long enough for Beihan Feng.
The situation had reached the point of conflict between disciples of the two peaks, which violated sect rules. However, Beihan Feng didn't care. The Beihan Clan was also a prestige clan, so as long as he didn't kill anyone, he wouldn't face very harsh punishment.
As the spell formation began to warp and twist, a rumbling could be heard, and the ripples became more intense. However, this wasn't an ordinary Immortal Cave. Initially, Yan Xiaobao was concerned, but he soon realized nothing else was happening, and he relaxed.
Nevertheless, as a well-intentioned person, he really felt terrible, so he decided to offer more suggestions on how to resolve the situation.
"You can't really blame me... How would you use that dog for stew? That way, everyone will know Beihan Lie is masculine and tough, willing to eat anything that falls in front of him..." At that point, he realized he might have gone too far, and things were nearing a turning point when Beihan Lie spat a huge mouthful of blood. His hair was completely disheveled, almost entirely detached from his mind, and he lunged at the spell.
Yan Xiaobao's heart continued to pound in horror. He felt more wronged than ever before. Of course, he had long realized that whenever he needed to explain himself the most, he would go overboard and end up with egg on his face.
This wasn't his intention, nor was it his wish...
Yan Xiaobao's explanation further angered Beihan Feng. He took a deep breath and waved his hand, instantly forming a black light pulse in his palm, rapidly shaping into a black crescent!
It was like the moon on the darkest night, pulsing with terrifying power, causing a loud thump. Beihan Feng instantly pushed the moon into the cave's spell formation.
A wave of heat reverberated, causing the entire Immortal Cave to shake. The spell formation shield outside twisted frantically, even seeming to be on the verge of breaking in multiple places. However, in the end... it didn't break. In the blink of an eye, it returned to normal.
Even Beihan Feng could hardly breathe. The power of the spell formation left him with a severe headache. He clenched his teeth in anger, ready to continue attacking when suddenly a cold snort could be heard in the distance.
"Beihan Feng, what are you doing? Put your hands down immediately!" The voice echoed like thunder, causing everything to tremble, especially around Beihan Feng. Trembling, even Beihan Lie stopped his frenzy and backed away, filled with fear.
All the other inner sect disciples of Sunset Peak shrank back, feeling a sense of impending doom. Looking up, they saw six paths of light flying toward them from the Dao Seed Mountain.
The person who had just spoken was a middle-aged man in a black robe. His face was filled with anger as he emitted a terrifying destructive aura.
Beihan Lie and Beihan Feng murmured, "Master..."
They trembled, clenching their hands in greeting, and as for the other inner sect disciples of Sunset Peak, they all lowered their heads, trembling.
"Greetings, Peak Lord."
This middle-aged man was none other than Beihan Lie's master and the Sunset Peak's Peak King. As he brought Beihan Lie out of the electing conflict, he glared angrily at Yan Xiaobao.
"You disrespectful curse!" he shouted. "Can you lose any more face? Stand aside with your donkey, I will deal with you later! As for the others, when you return to the mountain, you will enter secluded meditation for three years as punishment!"
The Beihan siblings felt their hearts tremble, unsure of what had truly happened. They knew their actions violated sect rules, but they couldn't imagine what had angered their normally kind and gentle master. After all, when the original incident occurred, their master had also been angry with Yan Xiaobao.
The Beihan siblings both thought something must have happened that they were unaware of, filling them with fear. Stepping back anxiously, they looked up at the masters hovering in mid-air, and their scalps began to tingle. Beside the peak of Sunset Peak were three peak lords from the North Shore. The elder lady from Irispetal Peak's peak lord looked particularly displeased as she coldly glared at the disciples of Sunset Peak.
Besides the four peak lords from the North Shore, Sect Leader Zheng Yuandong was also present, along with another person. The last person had a calm expression on his face, as if he didn't care at all about the dispute happening below. He was... the Peak King of Xiangyun Peak, Li Qinghou.
In the hearts of the Sunset Peak disciples, a sinking feeling rose, and as for Xiangyun Peak's inner sect disciples, they were completely taken aback. Everyone suddenly felt as though something strange had happened... the fact is, the North Shore usually acts in a dominant manner. When situations similar to this have arisen in the past, the North Shore usually quickly puts the South Shore in its place, even if significant issues exist.
It was rare for them to be provoked as they were today.
Yan Xiaobao sat in his Immortal Cave, staring at the crowd outside, stunned.
In mid-air, the four peak lords from the North Shore watched the scene below. Then, the elder lady from Irispetal Peak cleared her throat and looked at Li Qinghou.
"Mr. Li, about what we discussed earlier, do you think...?"
Li Qinghou slightly shook his head and said, "If it weren't for this small unfortunate event, I would agree. But this complicates things. You are now on your own."
He then looked down at Yan Xiaobao's Immortal Cave, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"Uh..." The elder lady glanced at the peak lord of Sunset Peak, looking a bit despondent. The peak lord of Sunset Peak sighed, realizing the trouble stemmed from his own peak's disciples. This meant he had to resolve the issue. He let out a smile, looking down at Yan Xiaobao's Immortal Cave.
"Little Chun little brother..." The words almost got stuck in his mouth on the way out, but he managed to say them. There was truly no choice. After much discussion, the Northern Shore leadership concluded that Yan Xiaobao's aphrodisiac was crucial to them. After further study of the affected war beasts, they realized the medicine even affected level-1 bloodlines.
This practically drove them insane. On the Northern Shore, Yan Xiaobao's pills were almost like a sacred relic. For various reasons, some of the most powerful fighting beasts were usually difficult to breed. There were even beasts with level-1 bloodlines that would only go into heat every few decades, or even once every hundred years. Over the years, this had been one of the Northern Shore's most frustrating problems.
A perfect example was the blue-eyed nethermoon ape, one of Sunset Peak's two Holy Beasts. It had reached the end of its lifespan, still without producing any offspring. It was a very critical situation.
But then Yan Xiaobao brought his Heavenly Gifted Pills, and the four peak lords of the Northern Shore were determined to obtain them. Unfortunately for them, no amount of research provided any description of the pills, and eventually, they had no choice but to acknowledge the pills... were invented by Yan Xiaobao.
After that, they went to Sect Leader Li Qinghou requesting his help.
If it was any other disciple, even one from the inner sect, all they would have to do is express their desire, and it would be fulfilled. There were countless ways to pressure such a disciple into obediently handing over the pill formula. But Yan Xiaobao was different... he was a prestige disciple, and under such status, they had no choice but to offer him some form of compensation.
