Chapter 180: Gathering Forces! Together But Apart!
Xiao Ze originally wanted to launch a surprise attack on the Black Alliance, catching them off guard. However, the Great Elder thought it was better not to be reckless and suggested waiting to gather the academy's powerful forces to then, in one decisive blow, destroy the Black Alliance.
The most important factor was that Vice President Hu Qian had been in seclusion trying to reach the Dou Zong level for some time. If they managed to wait until Hu Qian came out of seclusion, regardless of whether he broke through to Dou Zong or not, he would still be a considerable force.
Xiao Ze had no objections to the Great Elder's arrangements. He took advantage of this time to reunite with Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin. He wanted to assess the results of their training during this period.
First, Xiao Yixian. During the chaos inside the academy, Xiao Yixian unleashed her Calamity Poison Body, displaying incredible strength. She killed several powerful Dou Wang consecutively, forcing the Black Alliance to send a strong Dou Huang to contain her. Each time the Calamity Poison Body is unleashed, she gets one step closer to completely losing control.
Therefore, Xiao Ze did not choose to deepen the poison power with Xiao Yixian this time but instead directly absorbed her poison power. He reset Xiao Yixian's Poison Body to its pre-outburst state. This is why Xiao Ze has not rushed to solve the problem of Xiao Yixian's Poison Body. As long as Xiao Ze has a perfect Calamity Poison Body, he can ensure that Xiao Yixian's does not get out of control. However, this is only a temporary solution. In the future, when Xiao Ze improves his Calamity Poison Body, he will be able to completely resolve the hidden danger in Xiao Yixian's.
After absorbing this poison power, Xiao Ze's Origin Tree also expanded a bit. This improved his ability to store energy, control energy, among other skills.
Next was Qing Lin. Since she activated the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils, she has grown very rapidly. Although Xiao Ze has not been in the academy, Xiao Yixian knows about the power of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils. She often takes Qing Lin to the deep mountains to capture magical snake beasts. Although she does not have Xiao Ze's perfect control, she ensures Qing Lin's growth.
"Qing Lin, you have progressed very well. If you keep growing like this, you will soon be able to help me a lot." Xiao Ze patted Qing Lin's little head, smiling as he spoke. Qing Lin showed a satisfied expression, enjoying the moment.
"This little one, a compliment from you is more effective than ten from me," Xiao Yixian said with a bit of resignation. Hearing this, Qing Lin blushed and said softly, "Because it is the young master's recognition, it makes me very happy, Sister Xiao Yixian, I don't..."
"It's okay, I'm not blaming you, I was just joking," Xiao Yixian quickly replied, seeing Qing Lin's expression. Otherwise, this little one would start overthinking.
"By the way, where is Zi Yan?" Xiao Ze smiled at the interaction between Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin, then asked about Zi Yan.
"Zi Yan seems to have gone to the herb storehouse..." Before Xiao Yixian could finish, the door burst open, and Zi Yan, dressed in white, ran in and headed straight for the loft. Seeing this, Xiao Ze knew that Zi Yan had gone to the herb storehouse again to take some. Although he also went to the herb storehouse, it was to prepare medicines with the Great Elder's permission. But Zi Yan was different. She went there for cravings and didn't want to bother searching in the mountains, so she took herbs from the storehouse. The storehouse's seal had no effect on Zi Yan. So, if the storehouse guard was careless and Zi Yan got in, it was a miracle if only one herb was missing.
"Come out, no elder is chasing you." Xiao Ze called from the loft, and after a moment, Zi Yan's little head appeared at the doorframe, cautiously looking around.
"That old man was so rude! I only took one herb and he threatened to lock me up, hmph!"
"You... It's a good thing the Great Elder didn't catch you, otherwise you would have been in big trouble."
"Forget those old men, Xiao Ze, quickly, help me make some pills!" Zi Yan ran to Xiao Ze, pulling his wrist to take him to the loft.
"Have you already eaten all those pills?" Xiao Ze remembered that before leaving, he had left a batch of pills for Zi Yan. This girl was really gluttonous. But he didn't oppose it, as the pills also helped Zi Yan to quickly improve her strength. Moreover, making pills prevented the herbs from being wasted. Making pills was very easy for Xiao Ze, even with rare herbs.
"Here you go!" Xiao Ze finished making the last pills and put them in a jade bottle, handing them to Zi Yan, who suddenly exclaimed, "Xiao Ze, since when do you have a little snake? It seems to be an ancient beast."
Zi Yan suddenly noticed the multicolored little snake on Xiao Ze's wrist and was surprised.
"It was an unexpected find during my visit to the Jia Ma Empire." Xiao Ze didn't give more explanations. Although in the original story the relationship between Queen Medusa and Zi Yan was good, the circumstances were different now. The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python was in its infant stage and needed many spiritual herbs, so it was not a good idea to entrust it to Zi Yan.
"Oh." Zi Yan nodded and put a pill in her mouth, not paying more attention.
In the following days, Jia Nan Academy gathered its strong members, preparing to take revenge on the Black Alliance. Xiao Ze guided Qing Lin's training, exchanged poison power with Xiao Yixian, made pills for Zi Yan, and occasionally fed the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python. It was hectic activity, but Xiao Ze enjoyed it.
Meanwhile, at the Black Alliance base in Feng City, Han Feng was sitting in front of the Golden and Silver Elders.
"Elders, these are the pills I promised you."
"Hehe, Leader Han is truly generous." One of the elders put away the pills, showing a kinder expression.
"Have you heard the rumors within the Black Alliance lately?" Han Feng tapped the table, hinting at something.
"Oh? Are you referring to the mysterious strong person everyone is talking about?"
"They say the leader of the Blood Sect and two powerful Dou Wang were killed by a mysterious strong person, and it could be someone from Jia Nan Academy." The elders spoke one after another.
"Exactly, although I ordered the information to be sealed as soon as I heard about it, rumors within the alliance were inevitable. What do you think?"
Han Feng spoke with a grim face.
"Hehe, we don't know."
"If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."
After saying that, the elders left quickly, having come only for the pills Han Feng promised. As for the mysterious strong person, it was not their concern. With their power, what did they have to fear? The affairs of the Black Alliance were Han Feng's problem.
"Damn it! I knew they couldn't be trusted!" Han Feng slammed the table hard, his face dark. After a while, with a doubtful expression, he said, "Do I really need their help?"
