"It's Qi Shan! Elder Qi Shan has appeared!" 

"Elder Qi Shan is finally here. I wonder if I can secure a spot for his alchemy this time."

"Hmph, I must have the Fighting Spirit Pill this time—no one will take it from me!"

As the red-faced elder appeared, the hall burst into commotion. Everyone's gazes burned as they looked at Qi Shan, each one eager and ready.

This scene alone showed the extraordinary influence of a sixth-tier alchemist.

Mo Ya, who had initially been ready to enjoy the drama, was momentarily stunned. He then put on a welcoming smile, hurriedly approaching Qi Shan and greeting him warmly. "Elder Qi, you've arrived! Everyone has been eagerly waiting for you."

"Hmm, I appreciate the wait, Young Sect Leader. Leave the rest to me." The red-faced elder, known as Qi Shan, smiled faintly. His gaze swept across the room and landed on Bai Han. He paused briefly, then laughed heartily.

"Haha, Brother Bai! When did you arrive at the Black-Corner Region? You should have informed me; this is quite unlike you!"

As he spoke, Qi Shan strode forward, his casual glance brushing past Mo Yu before settling on Bai Han.

Seeing Qi Shan approach, Bai Han withdrew his aura and greeted him with a gentle smile. "Brother Qi Shan, it's been a long time. Congratulations on breaking through as a sixth-tier alchemist.

I came here in haste with an urgent matter to discuss with you and didn't notify you in advance."

"Oh? An urgent matter? Say no more." Qi Shan nodded, but then noticed the odd atmosphere in the hall. His gaze shifted to Mo Yu, his eyes narrowing slightly. "And who might this be?"

"Young Sect Leader, care to explain?" Bai Han gestured for Mo Ya to elaborate.

Mo Ya chuckled softly and spoke. "Elder Qi, this is Mo Yu, the head of Yuan Manor. A moment ago, he and Elder Bai had a minor... disagreement."

"Yuan Manor? Is this a Black-Corner Region faction? How come I've never heard of it?" Qi Shan frowned at the unfamiliar name.

Mo Ya smiled. "Elder Qi, you've been in seclusion refining pills, so you might not have heard the news. Recently, Medicine Emperor Han Feng formed the Black Alliance to counteract Jia Nan Academy, uniting Gold and Silver Elders, Blood Sect, and Eight Gates, among other forces.

However, Yuan Manor rose like a comet during this period. Despite its short history, it has achieved astonishing feats, including defeating the Black Alliance in battle and nearly causing the death of Medicine Emperor Han Feng. Now, Yuan Manor is renowned throughout the Black-Corner Region and is allied with Jia Nan Academy due to Mo Yu's connection to the academy."

As Mo Ya finished, Qing Lin's eyes sparkled with admiration. Hearing Mo Yu's astounding achievements directly from the Black Emperor Sect's Young Sect Leader solidified her awe.

No wonder he's the young master...

While Qing Lin understood her rapid rise to Dou Huang and the position of Deputy Leader of Heavenly Serpent Mansion was due to her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils and the mansion's cultivation efforts, Mo Yu had come from a small family in the Jia Ma Empire and achieved so much on his own—a true genius.

"Yuan Manor, Mo Yu?"

Qi Shan furrowed his brows as he looked at the silver-eyed youth before him. He hadn't expected such dramatic changes in the Black-Corner Region during his time in seclusion.

As a sixth-tier alchemist, he was naturally familiar with Medicine Emperor Han Feng. The latter's remarkable talent and powerful teacher made him a potential seventh-tier alchemist. Yet, this seemingly harmless young man had nearly ended Han Feng's life—a shocking revelation.

"Hmph! A young man with some strength but no sense. Yuan Manor may be strong in the Black-Corner Region, but it has no say in Heavenly Serpent Mansion's internal affairs.

Mo Yu, I advise you to stay out of this, or Heavenly Serpent Mansion will not be as lenient as the Black Alliance." Bai Han's voice was laced with a veiled threat.

Qi Shan chuckled, catching on to the situation. "Ah, so this is the root of the conflict. Don't worry, Brother Bai. Leave it to me."

Turning to Mo Yu, Qi Shan spoke evenly. "If I'm not mistaken, Manor Lord Mo, you are currently in the Dou Wang realm.

Coincidentally, I recently refined three Fighting Spirit Pills. I'll need to submit one to my sect, but the other two will be auctioned here today.

I propose this: one Fighting Spirit Pill and a favor from me in exchange for your withdrawal from Heavenly Serpent Mansion's affairs. What do you think?"

As he spoke, Qi Shan carefully retrieved a jade bottle and poured out a single, round, emerald-green pill.

The hall erupted in a buzz.

A Fighting Spirit Pill!

Even among fifth-tier pills, the Fighting Spirit Pill was exceptionally rare and comparable to a low-tier sixth-tier pill. For most attendees, this was their primary reason for coming.

Adding to the offer, a favor from a sixth-tier alchemist? Its value was immeasurable. Many looked at Mo Yu, expecting his decision.

Most believed Mo Yu would accept. Strength was paramount in the Dou Qi Continent, and treasures like the Fighting Spirit Pill were crucial for cultivation.

Even Bai Han didn't expect Qi Shan's generous offer. A Fighting Spirit Pill was valuable even for him, not to mention a favor. His gratitude toward Qi Shan grew.

However, Qi Shan viewed this differently. While the pill and favor were costly, the connection to Bai Han and Heavenly Serpent Mansion was worth the investment.

Smiling confidently, Qi Shan awaited Mo Yu's response.

Under everyone's gaze, Mo Yu tilted his head slightly, meeting Qi Shan's eyes. He spoke calmly, his voice steady.

"No need. Qing Lin is mine. If Heavenly Serpent Mansion insists on forcing her into something she doesn't want, then perhaps Heavenly Serpent Mansion should step aside. As for the Deputy Leader position, find someone else."

His tone left no room for negotiation. Though he stood to gain both a Fighting Spirit Pill and a sixth-grade soul magic core, neither compared to Qing Lin's importance. Not only was her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils immensely valuable, but their bond was equally unshakable.

As Mo Yu's voice resonated in the hall, it immediately stirred a wave of commotion among the gathered crowd. Even Mo Ya cast a surprised glance at him, clearly taken aback.

Mo Yu's actions were bold, simultaneously offending both the Heavenly Serpent Mansion and the Black Emperor Sect. All for a woman—was it truly worth it?

Bai Han's face froze momentarily before his expression turned dark. Mo Yu's words had thoroughly trampled on the reverse scale of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion. After all the effort and resources invested, they had finally located a possessor of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. There was no room for error!

The red-faced elder, Qi Shan, was similarly stunned by Mo Yu's dismissive stance, a flicker of anger sparking within him. With his current strength and renown, he had long grown unaccustomed to being so disregarded. After all, as a sixth-grade alchemist, even the elite factions of Central Plains would treat him with utmost courtesy.

Although Mo Yu had recently gained fame in the Black-Corner Region, Qi Shan did not consider him a genuine threat. A faint chill glimmered in Qi Shan's eyes as his gaze met Mo Yu's silver pupils. His voice turned icy.

"Manor Lord Mo, youth is often accompanied by recklessness. As someone older, let me offer you some advice. In the Black-Corner Region, it's best to act with restraint. Otherwise, it won't end well for you."

Mo Yu responded with a faint smile, his tone indifferent. "Thank you for the advice, Elder Qi. However, while your words hold some truth, I'd like to add: if the young aren't headstrong, can they still be called young?"

Qi Shan's mouth twitched, fury flashing in his eyes. As a high-tier alchemist revered in the Black-Corner Region, it had been ages since someone had dared to confront him so openly.

However, thinking that Mo Yu must have come to the Black Emperor Sect with some request, Qi Shan coldly smiled. But just as he intended to leverage this situation, Mo Yu made his move.

In the center of the hall, Mo Yu grabbed Qing Lin's hand without hesitation and began walking toward the exit, evidently uninterested in further involvement in the event.

He knew all too well that offending someone as petty as Qi Shan would make it impossible to exchange for the Dou Ling Pill or the sixth-tier soul attribute magic core through conventional means. Since that was the case, there was no point in staying to endure further humiliation.

Behind Mo Yu, the Yao brothers froze momentarily at their manor lord's abrupt action but quickly grasped his intent. With a cautious glance around, they silently followed, standing guard.

As for Qing Lin, she didn't resist in the slightest. Instead, she obediently let herself be led away, her heart relieved. Her initial fondness for the Heavenly Serpent Mansion had long been eroded by the constant pressure from its upper echelons.

To continue following the young master she missed day and night—what could be better?

However, just as Mo Yu and his group were about to leave the hall, his expression darkened. A surge of icy, menacing energy came barreling toward them from behind.

Mo Yu knew instantly who the attacker was. His face turned grim as he let out a cold snort. With a swift motion, he retrieved a massive crimson puppet from his beast ring and flung it forward.

The fiery puppet erupted with a torrential wave of brute force, akin to a volcanic eruption, meeting the incoming attack head-on.

"Boom!"

A muffled explosion echoed through the hall, followed by a shockwave of energy rippling outward, causing many in the crowd to stagger back in alarm.

The abrupt clash caught everyone off guard, some even feeling their blood churn. Curses filled the air as they retreated to safety, their attention drawn to the fiery puppet now standing in the center.

"A Dou Zong puppet?!"

The whispers of astonishment spread like wildfire. Even those unfamiliar with puppetry could sense the overwhelming might of its aura, its sheer strength eliciting shock from the onlookers.

Turning coldly, Mo Yu fixed his icy gaze on Bai Han, whose face had also changed upon recognizing the puppet.

"So, this is your trump card? A Dou Zong puppet, indeed impressive. But if you think it's enough to take Qing Lin away, you're gravely mistaken!" Bai Han sneered, though the puppet's oppressive energy made him subconsciously step back, his eyes cautious.

Mo Yu's voice turned frosty. "For the sake of my past ties with the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, I'll let this slide. But if there's a next time, I won't hesitate to kill."

Bai Han froze, his face twisting with fury. He, a dignified elder of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion and a two-star Dou Zong, was being threatened?

"Haha, guests, guests! Let's not destroy my Black Emperor Sect, shall we?"

Just as Bai Han prepared to strike again, a figure darted from the depths of the Black Emperor Pavilion, stopping mid-air a hundred meters away.

All eyes turned toward the figure—a yellow-robed elder with a smile on his face. The golden serpents embroidered on his robe shimmered under the sunlight, exuding an aura of oppressive majesty.

Gasps spread through the hall as the crowd recognized him.

"The Black Emperor Sect's Master, Mo Tianxing!"
