Chapter 166: Countermeasures
After chatting with Wu Tianlang and the others for a while, Xiao Ming returned to Shi Zi's back.
With the flapping of the Amethyst Winged Lion King's wings, his group quickly became a small dot in the eyes of Wu Tianlang and the others.
Looking at that small dot, the red-haired youth who had followed Wu Tianlang earlier walked quickly to his side and spoke.
"Adoptive Father, that person was Xiao Ming?"
Wu Hao had heard of Xiao Ming's name for a long time.
When he was seven years old, Xiao Ming was already a legendary figure in Jia Nan Academy.
However, because he had been raised by his foster father in the Law Enforcement Unit, he had never been able to see Xiao Ming in person.
"Didn't you hear everything just now? It was indeed him. I remember you always wanted to meet him before and had him as your goal, this time you met Xiao Ming in person, how do you feel about it?" Wu Tianlang glanced at Wu Hao, who had a smell of blood around him. This adopted son of his was influenced by him and always had a keen interest in cultivation as well as fighting.
"... He is very strong!" Wu Hao's face was serious, and his hoarse voice rang out.
Hearing these words, Wu Tianlang couldn't help but be speechless, how could he not be strong? he was a Dou Emperor!
Not to mention people of the same age, even the group of Dou King Elders from the Jia Nan Academy were not comparable in front of Xiao Ming.
"I really want to fight against these kinds of monstrous characters, even though I feel like I will definitely lose." A hint of longing appeared in Wu Hao's eyes. "However, I am not qualified now, in the future, I will have to work twice as hard to achieve this, even if it takes decades of effort."
"Not bad, the courage is commendable." Wu Tianlang stroked his beard and then patted Wu Hao's shoulder in encouragement.
...
On Shi Zi's back, Xiao Ming did not know that he was considered an objective by Wu Hao.
Nor would he care to know, when he was still a student at Jia Nan Academy, he did not know how many people had him as an objective.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King streaked across the sky, leaving a trail through the white clouds.
An hour later.
Jia Nan City, Jia Nan Academy, the Deputy Headmaster's office.
Hu Gan was sitting on a chair and let out a loud laugh, "Hahaha, I didn't expect you to come back so soon! Your strength has also improved very quickly."
"During the time you were away, Hu Jia was bugging me every day. After hearing what this girl said earlier, I thought it would be another year or two before you returned to the Academy."
In front of Hu Gan's desk, Xiao Ming was sitting alone.
When he heard what Hu Gan said, he smiled, "This time when I went home, things went relatively well, so I came back earlier, how is Hu Jia?"
"What can happen to her inside the Academy?". Hu Gan waved his hand and shook his head.
Xiao Ming nodded his head in understanding and then said, "Well, Deputy Headmaster, where is my Master? I haven't seen him in his courtyard before."
The first thing Xiao Ming did when he returned to Jia Nan Academy had been to visit his Master.
However, no one was there.
After that, he went to the Deputy Headmaster's place after arranging where Qing Lin, as well as Xiao Yi Xian, and Shi Zi would stay.
"Your Master is in seclusion, didn't you give him a Zong Breaking Pill earlier? A few days after you left, he ran to the Inner Academy and secluded himself there. Whether he manages to break through to Dou Ancestor or not, counting down the time, it's almost time for him to come out." Hu Gan explained, with a hint of envy shining in his eyes as he talked about the Zong Breaking Pill.
He too had been trapped in the peak Dou Emperor for many years, but he did not dare to try to break through it easily.
After all, if one failed to break through, there would be a chance for the realm to fall, and might even leave behind hidden wounds.
"I see." Xiao Ming nodded his head in understanding.
Based on the contents of the simulator, Xiao Ming knew that if there was no accident, he would be able to see his Master tomorrow.
Only that his Master would most likely not be able to break through to Dou Ancestor. But no matter what, with the Zong Breaking Pill, his Master's cultivation realm would not go down.
If he couldn't break through the Dou Ancestor this time, he would prepare a few more Zong Breaking Pills, wasn't his Master's breakthrough assured?
Just as Xiao Ming was thinking this, Hu Gan in front of him suddenly said, "This... about the Zong Breaking Pill you gave to your Master."
"That pill should have been refined by you, shouldn't it?".
Although the pill was not refined by him but obtained in the simulator, it was not something he could explain, so Xiao Ming simply nodded his head and said.
"Yes, I can refine the Zong Breaking Pill, I even helped the Jia Ma Imperial Family to refine one when I returned to the Jia Ma Empire this time. The success rate would be around forty to fifty percent, more or less."
"Forty to fifty percent, that high?" Hearing this, Hu Gan couldn't help but feel puzzled, but then he was filled with joy.
"I've saved up several medicinal materials over the years, it's just that our Academy didn't have a sixth-tier Alchemist, let alone one who could refine a Zong Breaking Pill, so this time that you came back, do you have the time to help me refine a Zong Breaking Pill?"
"No problem, you can send the medicinal ingredients tomorrow, I can refine it eventually, however, I do not guarantee success, I will not be responsible if it fails then." Xiao Ming said with a smile and did not mention the question of remuneration. Hu Gan had seen him grow up, helping him refine a pill was no big deal.
"Naturally, I know the rules of the Alchemists, and I won't blame you if it fails." Hu Gan shook his head.
Xiao Ming did not mention the matter of remuneration, but as an Elder, Hu Gan still had to mention it.
"I have obtained a Di Dou Technique of wood attribute earlier, consider it as payment for your hard work, I will send it tomorrow along with the medicinal materials."
"Let's talk about the reward later." Xiao Ming shook his head, "I am here to meet you, Deputy Headmaster, because I still have an important matter I need to report."
Seeing Xiao Ming's face was somewhat serious, Hu Gan was surprised, "What's wrong?".
"You also know that I possess a Heavenly Flame, right? This news is not unknown to Han Feng."
"Medicine Emperor Han Feng? He wouldn't do anything even if he knew, right? He already has a Heavenly Flame, it's not possible for him to come and steal yours, how can one person have two Heavenly Flames at the same time?"
"Even so, I heard that he is about to make a surprise attack on Jia Nan Academy." Xiao Ming spread his hands and said.
"Just relying on him?" Hu Gan revealed a hint of disdain, Medicine Emperor Han Feng was very famous, but it wasn't enough in front of Jia Nan Academy.
"Of course not, there are probably also strong people from the Eight Gates, the Blood Sect, and maybe Mister Gold and Mister Silver."
Hearing that Mister Gold and Mister Silver might appear, Hu Gan's face changed a little because of this.
The so-called Mister Gold and Mister Silver were the two strongest people in the Black Ranking of the Black-Corner Region. The two of them were twin brothers, plus their cultivation techniques were identical, therefore, if they were separated, their strength would only be similar to that of a peak Dou Emperor powerhouse, but if they fought together, they would complement each other, and even if they faced a Dou Ancestor powerhouse, they would have a high chance of winning.
Therefore, the reputation of these two people was extremely great among the most powerful people in the Black-Corner Region, and even Hu Gan was a little afraid of them.
"Hehe, really worthy of being the Medicine Emperor, even the heads of those forces, the Blood Sect and the Eight Gates, can be invited. Since he has been in Black-Corner Region for many years, his influence is not in vain." Hu Gan said with a frown.
Of course, this did not mean that he was afraid, he then said in a cold voice, "Don't worry, you are from Jia Nan Academy, in the Jia Nan Academy, no one can harm you, at least these people from Black-Corner Region are not qualified. Tomorrow, I will go to the Inner Academy and discuss it with the First Elder Su Qian, I will make sure that if these people come, they will never come out again."
