Chapter 781: So Angry They Wanted to Vomit Blood

On Tian’ling Continent, grade 7 pills would cause Alchemy Tribulations, while on Guang’ling World, grade 9 pills were required to attract the Alchemy Tribulation.

The appearance of an Alchemy Tribulation also meant that the alchemist who refined the pill indeed had grade 9 strength, but whether she could refine the pill or not depended on whether she could withstand the Alchemy Tribulation.

If the Alchemy Tribulation couldn’t be withstood, as long as there was a single trace of lightning energy that leaked into the pill cauldron, then this batch of pills would be completely wasted.

It was useless for others to help with the Alchemy Tribulation, they could only rely on oneself.

Right now, most of the people present looked at Lou Mu Yan nervously.

Not only did Lou Mu Yan not reveal the slightest discomfort nor fear when she saw the Alchemy Tribulation, but instead, her eyes were filled with the brilliance of a prey.

While holding the cauldron with one hand, she turned into several afterimages.

Everyone watched as the Alchemy Tribulation that penetrated through the palace was absorbed by the several afterimages, and when the last Alchemy Lightning disappeared, a scent of pills spread everywhere.

“She actually resisted the thunder with her body, how abnormally monstrous!”

“And I saw that after the lightning struck her, her expression was even so happy, was she still a woman!”

“How tough, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone dare to directly withstand the Lightning Tribulation like that.”

“So an Alchemy Tribulation could be blocked like that too.” A grade 9 alchemist rubbed his chin in deep thought.

The complexions of the sea race Royal Elders who placed the bets all darkened. They never expected that this damned girl would actually have the ability to refine grade 9 pills.

Most importantly was that the hopes in their hearts were going to be dashed—she dealt with the Lightning Tribulation so easily, it was clear she’d successfully refine the pills.

After a while, three pale golden pills flew out of the cauldron, chasing and playing with each other, and even trying to escape from the hall.

Lou Mu Yan pointed randomly in the air, and only then did the three pills seemingly reluctantly fall into a small green gourd that had long been prepared.

Once the grade 9 pills had been tempered by the Alchemy Tribulation, it’d produce a very weak spiritual consciousness, and it would subconsciously want to escape.

There used to be a grade 9 alchemist who had actually accidentally released a refined grade 9 pill.

There was also a grade 9 pill that escaped from beneath the alchemist’s nose and cultivated into a demon spirit. Except for being slightly weak in attacks, their defence and escape were first-class.

Seeing Lou Mu Yan put away the three pills, the eyes of the Elders of the sea race were practically froze.

“You all lost, bring the bets.” Lou Mu Yan stretched out her hand and looked at the First Elder with a smile on her face, “Fifty level 9 spiritual herbs.”

The faces of the First Elder and the other Elders turned black instantly. Their hearts were in severe pain—those were fifty level 9 spiritual herbs!

They didn’t feel it when they placed the bet at the time, but now that they really lost, they felt that their hearts were bleeding.

“Ahem, this old man and the others don’t have so many level 9 spiritual herbs on us.” The First Elder coughed lightly.

Lou Mu Yan raised an eyebrow, “Then how many do you have?”

“A dozen or so.” The First Elder smiled shyly.

Lou Mu Yan snorted coldly: “You wanted to bet, so you must admit defeat. Since you’re so reluctant to part with the spiritual herbs, then why did you want to make a bet with me?

“Believe it or not, I’ll have the Hidden City’s people go to the Four Seas and the other three races to release news saying that the Royal Elders of the Southern Sea reneges on their promises, wanting to bet but not admit defeat, losing face for the entire Southern Sea.” She knew that these elderly men were definitely reluctant to bring out the items used in the bet.

Her eldest brother was the Hidden City’s Young Master, and if she wanted to spread this kind of news, she believed that the entire Guang’ling World would know about it soon.

Of course, she was only threatening a bit. If she really exposed it, Fox Lan would lose face too.

“You…” The First Elder and the other’s faces flushed, but they didn’t know how to reprimand her—after all, she was telling the truth.

And they also knew that the elder brother of this damned girl was the Young Master of the Hidden City, so they really couldn’t do anything about her.

Lan Si furrowed his brows slightly, and looked at the several Elders with displeasure, saying: “As the Elders of the Southern Sea Royal Family, don’t always think of taking advantage of your seniority, Little Yan’er isn’t as patient as this King.”

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was helping Lou Mu Yan. The several Elders of the Royal Family suddenly felt as if there was a mouthful of blood stuck in their throats, completely out of anger.

They really wanted to ask which side their Majesty was on.

But facing Lan Si’s sharp gaze of warning, the Elders’ faces could only darken even more, and they gathered fifty level 9 spiritual herbs from here and there.

The hand of the First Elder who handed over the interspatial ring even trembled slightly, and the skin on his face shook with heartache.

He really wanted to slap himself hard on the cheek—why did he agree to the bet from damned girl just now? She was so cunning and shameless, how could she allow herself to suffer.

With disregards to the expressions of heart ache on the Elders, Lou Mu Yan took the spiritual herbs and put it into her interspatial ring without hesitation—this really solved her urgent need, so she really liked to make bets with old fellows.

“Several Elders, if you still want to bet in the future, remember to come find me.” Lou Mu Yan said with a bright smile on her face: “I love respecting the old and loving the young the most.”

“…” The corners of the lips of the Elders twitched—this damned girl still wanted to cheat them of things. They had seen shameless, but they had never seen someone this shameless.

“We old fellows have nothing good to bet with you anymore.” The First Elder said with a fake smile.

This was the first time they had suffered such a huge loss, so naturally they were taught a lesson and wouldn’t be fooled again.

Lou Mu Yan smiled regretfully: “Aye! I didn’t expect the Royal Elders of the Southern Sea to be so poor.”

“…” The several Elders’ faces grew even darker, so angry they wanted to vomit blood.

They really wanted to toss her right out of the Southern Sea.

Lan Si saw the deflated Elders and felt amused—he didn’t know how these old fellows developed such a stingy temper.

He didn’t want Lou Mu Yan to tease them until they went mad, so he gestured with a beckon of his hand. “Little Yan’er, come with me.”

Then he ordered the several Elders to entertain all the guests. He was going to leave the banquet first.

The Elders didn’t want King to leave alone together with Lou MyuYan—who knew how many more things this damned girl would cheat out of King.

However, they were also powerless to change King’s decision. Out of sight, heart won’t hurt, so they all agreed: “Yes!”

The moment they saw Lou Mu Yan, they’d think of the fifty level 9 spiritual herbs, so they wished she’d just disappear from sight as soon as possible, lest they wanted to beat her up.

Lou Mu Yan asked Lou Mu Bai to take care of Lou Mo Yu and Feng Yue Xin, then she left with Ming Xiu and Ye Qing Han, following Lan Si.

The people only walked out a few steps when the Crown Prince of the Eastern Sea greeted with a smile.

“Your Majesty the King of the Southern Sea, this is my father’s letter written personally by him, I trouble you to read it.” He politely handed over the personally written letter by the Eastern Sea King using his mental energy.

Lan Si took the letter from the Eastern Sea King, scanned through it, then glanced at the three women behind the Crown Prince of the Eastern Sea, “Who is the Fifth Princess?”

The Fifth Princess was overjoyed but didn’t show it. She walked up to Lan Si reservedly and bowed gracefully, “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

“Take off your veil.” Lan Si looked at the Fifth Princess faintly, and there was no emotion to be heard in his voice.

The Fifth Princess was taken aback for a moment, and secretly rejoiced in her heart. It seemed that Lan Si was tempted by the marriage proposal written by her Emperor Father in the letter.

She had always been confident in her beauty and temperament, so she stretched out her hand and gently lifted the veil she was wearing.

But before she could raise her head shyly, she heard Lan Si’s cold and merciless voice fall.

“Such a thing also wants to become this King’s official wife, this King thinks that the Eastern Sea King must be dim-sighted from old age.”

After Lan Si finished speaking, without waiting for the people in the Eastern Sea to respond, he led Lou Mu Yan and the others away with a sullen expression.
