Hai Bo Dong snorted coldly and did not respond.

At this moment, another elder in a hemp robe spoke up.

"Old Ice Man, it's been decades since we last met. How about we spar?"

This person was Jia Xingtian, the Guardian of the Jiamai Empire.

Upon hearing this, Hai Bo Dong's expression changed.

"Old monster, forget it. I'm tired today."

Jia Xingtian did not say much more. A faint smile appeared on his face as martial qi condensed in his palm, and he struck out with a palm.

Hai Bo Dong hurriedly formed an ice mirror in front of him to block it.

Jia Xingtian was a Nine-star Martial Emperor, significantly stronger than Hai Bo Dong at the moment.

Facing Jia Xingtian's attack, Hai Bo Dong could only respond in a pitiful state.

The fluctuations from their battle were different from Hai Bo Dong's one-sided beating of Mitter Tengshan.

Above the Imperial Capital, the heavy earth-yellow martial qi and the icy martial qi clashed, causing waves of wind.

After a while of fighting, the two finally separated, revealing their figures.

Hai Bo Dong was panting heavily, his aura chaotic, clearly having suffered a disadvantage in the battle.

"Old Ice Man, it's been decades, and your strength has dropped significantly," Jia Xingtian laughed heartily, saying to Hai Bo Dong.

Jia Xingtian's aura was steady, with no significant fluctuation.

Hai Bo Dong snorted coldly, not speaking, his face unable to hide his embarrassment.

Jia Xingtian looked at Hai Bo Dong with a surprised expression.

Hai Bo Dong was now only a Two-star Martial Emperor, indicating that his past few decades had not been pleasant.

Pharma stroked his beard, also looking at Hai Bo Dong with a bit of surprise.

"Old Ice Man, where have you been these years?"

Earlier, when Hai Bo Dong fought Mitter Tengshan, he did not need to use his full strength and even had to suppress it to avoid killing Mitter Tengshan. The martial qi fluctuations were not obvious, so they did not notice. Now, in this all-out battle with Jia Xingtian, the martial qi fluctuations could not be hidden, revealing Hai Bo Dong's significant decline in strength.

Hai Bo Dong looked helpless and waved his hand.

"The past is not worth recalling. Let's not mention it."

At this moment, Jia Xingtian asked.

"Old Ice Man, what are your plans this time?"

Hai Bo Dong crossed his arms, his aura gradually stabilizing, maintaining the demeanor of a master.

"Don't worry. I won't take over the Mitter family again. I'm old and have no such intentions."

Hai Bo Dong glanced at Jia Xingtian.

This old monster was essentially worried that with his return and support, the Mitter family would threaten the royal family's position.

He understood it clearly.

Jia Xingtian nodded.

"That's good. We old fellows should rest and leave some room for the younger generation."

Hai Bo Dong did not bother to expose him, mainly because he could not win.

Pharma and Jia Xingtian chatted with Hai Bo Dong for a few more sentences before leaving.

"Alright, everyone can disperse."

Hai Bo Dong said to the remaining two Martial Kings.

These two were the Martial Kings of the other two major families of the Jiamai Empire, Nalan Jie and Mu Chen.

The two bowed to Hai Bo Dong and then left, their martial qi transforming into wings.

Su Yun reappeared in the courtyard, watching the two leave.

There were still four or five years until the Alchemist Conference of the Jiamai Empire, and Nalan Jie's Brand Poison could still be suppressed勉强能压制住.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here to cause trouble.

However, it must be quite severe. In his perception, this old man's aura was very weak.

Su Yun smiled, eyeing the Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva with great interest.

With this, he would be equivalent to having a direct ticket to becoming a Seventh Rank Alchemist.

As long as his cultivation reached the required level and he transferred the alchemy knowledge from the old man, he would achieve the Seventh Rank Alchemist realm!

The next day.

Su Yun sought out Hai Bo Dong.

"Elder Hai."

"Mm."

Hai Bo Dong nodded, waiting for him to continue.

"Do you have any Fifth-stage Demon Cores?"

Hai Bo Dong was taken aback, then took out two Fifth-stage Demon Cores from his Storage Ring.

"A few years ago, I did kill two Fifth-stage magical beasts. Do you want them?"

Su Yun looked at the two Fifth-stage Demon Cores in Hai Bo Dong's hand.

One was wood attribute, and the other was ice attribute.

Su Yun nodded and took out a Gold Coin Card from his Storage Ring.

"The gold coins inside should be enough to buy these two Fifth-stage Demon Cores. Thank you, Elder Hai."

Hai Bo Dong handed the two Fifth-stage Demon Cores to Su Yun but did not take the Gold Coin Card.

"No need for the gold coins. I don't need these Fifth-stage Demon Cores myself, and I've been keeping them as trophies. I'll give them to you."

Hai Bo Dong's expression was calm, but he was actually bleeding internally.

Two Fifth-stage Demon Cores were quite valuable and could easily be exchanged for a high-level mystic rank martial technique suitable for him.

But he had already boarded Su Yun's ship and had no intention of getting off.

Consider it an investment.

Su Yun smiled and stored the two Fifth-stage Demon Cores and the Gold Coin Card in the system space.

Hai Bo Dong was a trustworthy person.

Actually, when he was refining the Eradicating Calamity Pill for Hai Bo Dong, he followed the old man's method and subtly mixed in some Child Fire from the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire.

It was a safeguard he had for Hai Bo Dong.

Once this Child Fire was triggered, it could instantly shatter Hai Bo Dong's heart.

This was why he felt comfortable keeping Hai Bo Dong by his side, even exposing Xiao Yixian to him.

Because he could take Hai Bo Dong's life at any time!

This Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire Child Fire would dissipate automatically within three years.

These three years were for his own growth.

In three years, he would at least reach the peak of Martial King, and his overall strength would definitely be enough to contend with a Dou Huang (Emperor).

"Elder Hai, I wonder if all the demon cores in the Mitter family can be given to me?"

Hai Bo Dong frowned.

"Why do you need so many demon cores?"

Su Yun smiled but said nothing, just looking at Hai Bo Dong.

Seeing Su Yun's expression, Hai Bo Dong realized he had asked something he shouldn't.

After some thought, Hai Bo Dong said.

"If all the demon cores of the Mitter family are given to you, the family's finances will likely face problems in the short term."

He still had some feelings for the Mitter family and wanted Su Yun to be more patient.

After a moment's contemplation, Hai Bo Dong continued.

"If you're not in a hurry, I can have Mitter Tengshan give you as many demon cores as possible without affecting the family's normal operations.

Afterward, we can also mobilize the Mitter family's resources to help you find more demon cores.

What do you think?"

Hearing this, Su Yun nodded.

He wasn't that urgent. As long as he could collect a large number of demon cores before heading to Jia Nan Academy, it would be fine.

Seeing this, Hai Bo Dong breathed a sigh of relief. If Su Yun had been in a rush, he would have had the Mitter family send all the demon cores immediately.

But since there was a win-win solution, he did not want the Mitter family to face any issues.
