People are Fighting to Break Their Diaries! They Forced Me to Eat Soft Food

174: Chapter 174 Good Deeds Pay Off! A Great Opportunity”Good, that’s great. Then I’ll have to trouble Elder Xiao Ting.”

Seeing that Xiao Ting didn’t directly refuse to trade pills and even suggested checking on Lu Wanli, Lu Qian was extremely excited.

He was just an ordinary peak Dou Wang elder; the possibility of breaking through to Dou Huang in this lifetime was slim. If he spent resources to refine an emperor breaking pill, there might be a chance, but he would rather give those resources to his exceptionally talented son and grandson.

No one knows a son better than his father. During this time, Lu Wanli seemed normal on the surface, but he knew his son had something weighing on his mind.

After all, he used to be a Dou Huang expert, but now he had become a peak Dou Wang and was unable to continue breaking through; it was impossible not to care.

”I’ll send a message to him now,” Su Qian said.

As a Three-star Dou Zong, he could perform soul transmission within the Jia Nan Academy.

Xiao Ting invited everyone to his courtyard for a chat, then took out some pills and gave them to Xun’er, Xiao Yi Xian, and Qing Lin.

”First Elder, the merit I’ve earned from refining medicine in the Inner Academy should be enough to exchange for Fire Energy for Xun’er and the other two to cultivate in the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower indefinitely, right?” Xiao Ting said with a hint of a tease.

Xun’er was currently refining the Fallen Heart Flame, so her cultivation speed in the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower would be even faster, and she wouldn’t have to worry about fire poison.

Xiao Yi Xian could also cultivate recklessly in the tower; fire poison was just another type of tonic for her.

Qing Lin’s cultivation speed wasn’t as fast as theirs, but she could also transfer the fire poison through her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.

As long as they were willing, they could cultivate in the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower indefinitely.

”If Xun’er and the others are willing, it wouldn’t even be a problem for them to live inside,” Su Qian responded with a smile.

”Is Brother Xiao Ting not going to look after Cousin Xiao Yan?” Xun’er chuckled, her gaze sweeping over Xiao Yan nearby.

”No need,” Xiao Ting shook his head. ”Jade must be carved to become a masterpiece. Brother Yan can’t rely solely on cultivation; he needs more actual combat to feel the pressure. I think he can join the Combat Department and lead teams out to fight more often.”

Xiao Yan: ?

This double standard is a bit too obvious.

”Elder Xiao Ting, can you refine a Break-Sect Pill now?” Hu Gan rubbed his hands and asked, the heat in his eyes completely undisguised.

Originally, only Han Feng could refine this Break-Sect Pill in the Black-Corner Region.

Han Feng, who monopolized the refining of tier 6 pills in the Black-Corner Region, charged an extremely high price.

For factions with average relationships, not only was the service fee expensive, but the compensation was even more so.

Now that Xiao Ting didn’t need compensation and converted everything into internal merit points of the Jia Nan Academy, it was a good thing for the elders and disciples of the Jia Nan Academy; they could pay directly with merit points.

When Xiao Ting needed some natural treasures, or cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques, he could exchange them with merit points.

Compared to asking Han Feng to refine medicine, the cost was at least thirty percent lower.

”No problem,” Xiao Ting’s eyes flickered as he smiled. ”If Vice Dean Hu Gan wants a Break-Sect Pill, you can give all the natural treasures to me. After I go to settle in Zixiao City, I will refine tier 6 pills every day.”

”At the earliest in a month, or at the latest in three months, I am confident I can increase the success rate of refining a Break-Sect Pill to ninety-nine percent.”

”I will refine it for you then.”

Hu Gan licked his dry lips and immediately took out two sets of natural treasures from his storage ring. ”Then I’ll trouble Elder Xiao Ting. We’ll use merit points for the remaining costs.”

”No problem,” Xiao Ting agreed readily.

There were still many things in this Jia Nan Academy that bore traces left by the Lightning Clan.

These merit points in his hands could play a greater role than natural treasures.

”Elder Xiao Ting, I’ll have to trouble you as well.” Wu Tianlang took out two and a half sets of medicinal ingredients and handed them to Xiao Ting.

Xiao Ting accepted everyone, including tier 6 pills that needed to be refined like the Huangji Pill.

If resources weren’t enough, then merit points would make up for it; if neither were enough, then wait until they were.

During the conversation, Lu Wanli rushed over with an urgent look on his face.

”Commander.” Lu Wanli first bowed to Wu Tianlang; he worked under the latter and was mainly responsible for guarding Peace Town.

”Quickly, have Elder Xiao Ting give you an examination.” Wu Tianlang nodded slightly.

”Elder Xiao Ting, I’ll have to trouble you.” Lu Wanli walked up to Xiao Ting with a look of anticipation.

”Teacher, can you find any problems with him?” Xiao Yan asked Yao Chen in his heart.

Since Venerable Skyfire arrived, these two old fellows had been hiding in his ring playing chess, not bothering with him unless necessary.

”If you touch his body, I will definitely be able to see the problem,” Yao Lao’s voice rang out faintly.

At that moment, Xiao Ting took his hand off Lu Wanli’s wrist and let out a soft cry of surprise. ”That’s not right. Deputy Commander Lu’s current physical condition is very good. His cultivation shouldn’t have stagnated, nor should it have regressed.”

”I felt the same way after my examination,” Fire Elder immediately spoke up. ”It’s clearly fine, yet his cultivation regressed and he can’t break through the bottleneck. It’s very strange.”

Upon hearing this, even Yao Lao and Venerable Skyfire inside the bone flame ring became interested.

”Since it’s fine, then we need to change our thinking.” Xiao Ting raised his hand and released the Purple Heaven Flame, smiling faintly. ”As the saying goes, too much of a good thing can be just as bad; sometimes being too good can also break the balance and cause trouble.”

The Purple Heaven Flame circulated once through Lu Wanli’s body.

Lu Wanli watched with a nervous expression, his eyes filled with hope.

”So that’s how it is.” Xiao Ting quickly withdrew his hand and smiled. ”This problem isn’t hard to solve. Later, I’ll refine a fifth-tier Moon Spirit Pill for Deputy Commander Lu to take. His cultivation will be restored, and he can even turn this misfortune into a blessing to charge for three-star Dou Huang.”

Hearing this, everyone immediately understood that he had found the problem.

”The accumulation of Yang Qi in his body comes from the medicinal level.” Without waiting for anyone to ask, Xiao Ting explained to everyone, ”The people of the Demon Flame Valley are very sinister. They left a hidden injury in his dantian, which is a type of Yin-attributed power that devours blood strength.”

”By chance, Deputy Commander Lu consumed the flower core of a yin yang heavenly spirit flower, which suppressed that hidden injury but also caused Yang-attributed power to accumulate.”

”Taking a Moon Spirit Pill will neutralize the Yang-attributed energy and heal that hidden injury, and then all problems will be solved.”

Hearing this, everyone nodded in realization.

But immediately after, Fire Elder’s eyes widened. ”The yin yang heavenly spirit flower, is it that seventh-tier natural treasure known as the supreme treasure for dual cultivation?”

”Yes.” Xiao Ting looked at Lu Wanli. ”Think of it as my payment. Deputy Commander Lu shouldn’t mind telling me where this natural treasure might be, right?”

”Of course.” Lu Wanli nodded immediately. ”It’s in the Yangquan Valley, where conflicts often break out between the Jia Nan Academy and the Demon Flame Valley. At that time, I found a place surrounded by cold air but with extremely Yang Qi inside.”

”I took people in to investigate, and just as I walked into a strange light source, an elder from the Demon Flame Valley and a mysterious person suddenly attacked me.”

”I drove the two of them back, but I was also injured. At that time, my nose inhaled something.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ting stood up abruptly. ”In that case, it seems those two know where the yin yang heavenly spirit flower is. They were preventing you from discovering it; the reason they haven’t picked it yet is probably because it hasn’t matured.”

”To avoid being beaten to it, I’m going over there now!”
