Chapter 75: Heavenly Demon Pill

When they heard "thrown into the river to feed the fish," the two disciples of the Blood Demon Sect thought that Zhou Lanting outside had been killed, and they glanced at him in fear, causing the rhythm of the battle to become chaotic.

They couldn’t help but doubt these words. If Zhou Lanting hadn’t been thrown into the river to feed the fish, why would Yi Qianmo be able to come in?

What they didn’t know was that Zhou Lanting, standing outside by the door, had started to curse Yi Qianmo’s ancestors.

He finally understood why Yi Qianmo knew there were two Foundation Establishment Stage members inside and still dared to come in.

However, Zhou Lanting did not come in to expose him.

Letting Yi Qianmo in, he couldn’t clear his name anymore. If he went in now, as long as one of the two inside escaped, he wouldn’t be able to return safely.

"You clever little brat!"

Zhou Lanting cursed inwardly, realizing that not only could he not leave, but he also had to stand outside and block the door for Yi Qianmo.

At this moment, the two Blood Demon Sect cultivators inside had lost their fighting spirit, especially when Yi Qianmo stared at them, their faces showed fear and unease.

After a few rounds, one of the Blood Demon Sect disciples suddenly dodged and ran outside.

"You scoundrel!"

The other Blood Demon Sect disciple immediately yelled angrily.

Just after he finished yelling, a terrible scream came from outside, which was the voice of the fleeing Blood Demon Sect disciple, making the atmosphere in the hall become strange.

They all looked at Yi Qianmo, especially Su Yucheng and the old man with the surname Zhou, who thought he had brought help. But Yi Qianmo was rescued by him; how could he have any help?

Meanwhile, Yi Qianmo was eating grapes, completely unconcerned about what was happening outside or how they felt.

"Your Highness, what treasure did you take from the Blood Demon Sect that they are so desperate to kill you?"

Yi Qianmo asked.

At this moment, Su Yucheng had no intention of looking down on Yi Qianmo; he said, "It’s not something worth mentioning, but Twenty-one, you…"

"Not worth mentioning?"

Yi Qianmo smiled and said, "Then why don’t you show it to me, Your Highness?"

"No… it’s not with me." Su Yuchen swallowed hard, feeling that Yi Qianmo’s gaze was very chilling.

"Hahaha, you fat pig! I didn’t expect you to be caught in a trap!"

Just then, the remaining Blood Demon Sect cultivator spoke up, "He took my Heavenly Demon Pill from the Blood Demon Sect. This Heavenly Demon Pill belonged to the previous sect master of the Blood Demon Sect, the Golden Core of the Elder Heavenly Demon!"

"You’re talking nonsense!"

Su Yucheng said, looking at Yi Qianmo, and grinned, "Twenty-one, don’t listen to him! I wouldn’t have the power to take the Heavenly Demon Pill from the Blood Demon Sect!"

"The esteemed prince of the Yan Kingdom acts even more wickedly than my Blood Demon Sect; he seduced my family’s young lady, leading her to poison our sect master. In the end, he took advantage of our sect master’s unpreparedness and launched a surprise attack. If it weren’t for that, how could you possibly have obtained the Heavenly Demon Pill?"

A disciple of the Blood Demon Sect said.

"…"

"So the prince actually has this kind of charm."

Yi Qianmo looked at him, astonished by his plump figure, and said, "Hand over the Heavenly Demon Pill!"

"I truly don’t have it!"

Su Yucheng said with a bitter smile, "If you don’t believe me, go ahead and search me. If I had it on me, I would have given it up long ago. How could I risk my life to hold onto that pill?"

"Hmm?"

Yi Qianmo looked at him with confusion and noticed a bag on him, saying, "Is that a storage bag?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yucheng grasped the item tightly, looking defiant, but it was quickly taken away by Yi Qianmo.

"Twenty-one, you dare to take my things!" Su Yucheng shouted angrily.

"What is more important, your life or your belongings?" Yi Qianmo said, moving the sword closer to Su Yucheng’s neck.

Su Yucheng immediately shut his mouth but glared at Yi Qianmo with an expression that seemed ready to devour him.

Yi Qianmo infused the storage bag with spiritual power, and was astonished to find thousands of spirit stones inside, including many middle-grade spirit stones.

In addition to that, there were various jade boxes, containing unknown treasures, with one black box being the most eye-catching because it had a restriction placed on it.

However, Yi Qianmo had no interest in the black box, as there was a faint demonic energy leaking from it; his attention shifted to one inconspicuous box that looked very ancient.

Yi Qianmo did not take it out but instead placed the entire storage bag into his sword pouch, smiled at Su Yucheng, and said, "Take care, Your Highness. I consider your life saved as repayment!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Qianmo’s figure flickered, and he left the hall.

"Twenty-one!!! I will summon your ancestors from eighteen generations ago!"

Su Yucheng cursed angrily through clenched teeth.

Yi Qianmo reached the door, suddenly stopped, and turned to look at Su Yucheng. He saw Su Yucheng’s body shake with anger, his expression changing faster than flipping a page, and then he broke into a bright smile, "Please take care!"

The two fighters did not stop, as no one knew if the other would attack if they paused; they could only watch Yi Qianmo leave with frustration.

"It’s me!"

As soon as Yi Qianmo stepped out, a knife was pressed to his neck, and he nearly broke into a cold sweat.

Zhou Lanting glanced at him, exuding a sense of danger. Yi Qianmo didn’t give him a chance and said, "Half for each of us!"

"Deal!"

Zhou Lanting immediately grabbed Yi Qianmo, and in a flash, they left the big ship.

He stepped into the water and soon disappeared into the night.

After they had left for a long time, a disciple of the Blood Demon Sect finally emerged, leaping into the river and disappearing from sight.

Soon after, the old man Zhou and Su Yucheng chased after them, and Su Yucheng shouted into the night, "Twenty-one, you little beast, just wait for me! I will search the entire Yan Kingdom to find you!"

In the mountains and forests dozens of miles away, Zhou Lanting stopped and said, "Hand over the Heavenly Demon Pill, and you can keep everything else!"

"Heavenly Demon Pill? What Heavenly Demon Pill?" Yi Qianmo pretended not to know.

Zhou Lanting immediately put a knife to his neck and said, "Do you need me to help you remember?"

Helpless, Yi Qianmo took out the black box and said, "Is this the thing?"

"You don’t practice magic, why do you have the Heavenly Demon Pill?"

Zhou Lanting’s face lit up with joy as she quickly took it, saying, "With this Heavenly Demon Pill, I can reach the Golden Core Stage with a seventy percent chance!"

"Only seventy percent?"

Yi Qianmo said in surprise, "Is the Golden Core Stage really that difficult?"

"Do you think training is as easy as drinking water, just swallow it down?" Zhou Lanting put away the box and said, "Give me that storage bag too."

"You’re overthinking it!"

Yi Qianmo truly didn’t care about the Heavenly Demon Pill; he didn’t practice dark magic, and using the Heavenly Demon Pill would only harm him, not help.

However, he definitely would not give the storage bag to Zhou Lanting. If she found out he had another storage item, she would surely have bad intentions.

In this world, only the sun and human hearts cannot be looked at directly. Yi Qianmo would not risk his life.

Zhou Lanting thought for a moment and didn’t forcefully take it. She asked, "You’ve offended the prince of Yan Kingdom. Are you still going to Tianyuan Academy?"

"Yes, I am."

Yi Qianmo smiled and said, "Of course I want to go! Not only do I want to go, but I also need to take the big exam to enter Tianyuan Academy."
