After spending over an hour, Ye Luo managed to concoct four elixirs of the Yellow Rank fourth grade, demonstrating a much stronger alchemy skill than the first ti.
Ye Luo took one of the elixirs and began to refine the dicinal power within it.
As the elixir entered his body, a majestic dicinal power spread throughout, and the Nine Yang Mystic Art was activated to refine the power of that elixir.
anwhile, at the Fang Family in Zhonghai.
Inside the study, Fang Rushan and Fang Yan were leisurely sipping tea together.
"Dad, what exactly is Li Tiancheng doing by personally coming to Zhonghai?" Fang Yan asked, eyes filled with curiosity as he looked at Fang Rushan.
Fang Rushan, leisurely savoring a sip of Tieguanyin tea, said indifferently, "It’s about a bead."
"A bead?" Fang Yan’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
"That’s right, a month ago while I was in Macau, I accidentally obtained a bead that emanated a red glow. Later, Li Tiancheng sohow found out about it and contacted , wanting to purchase that bead."
"But initially, I didn’t agree. After I returned to Zhonghai, he even sent his son to negotiate with regarding the bead. Now that he has co in person, it’s evidently for this bead as well," Fang Rushan continued.
"Oh, what kind of bead is it that the chairman of the mighty Li Corporation cares so much about it to co personally?" Fang Yan’s curiosity intensified.
"Wait here."
Fang Rushan stood up and walked over to a safe next to the bookshelf. He took out a key, inserted it, and entered a few numbers, then opened the safe door. He took out a wooden box from the safe and placed it on the table in front of Fang Yan.
Fang Yan took the wooden box and opened it to reveal a smooth bead inside, shimring with red light, appearing very extraordinary.
"This is the bead?" Fang Yan held the bead in the palm of his hand, his gaze flickering, inspecting it closely.
"That’s right, it’s this bead. Back in Zhonghai, I have had a number of well-known antique experts study this bead, but without exception, none knew its origin. However, it’s clear from its surface that this bead is not ordinary; we just can’t determine its history," Fang Rushan said, leisurely taking another sip of tea.
"So, according to father’s view, Li Tiancheng knows the origin of this bead, which is why he is going to such lengths to acquire it," Fang Yan said.
"There’s a very strong possibility, and this bead is very important to him, holding great value," Fang Rushan said with a grave voice.
Fang Yan’s lips curled into a cold smile, "This may present us with a good opportunity."
"What do you an?" Fang Rushan’s eyes focused on Fang Yan.
"Li Corporation is among the top ten in all of Asia, and its strength is such that even if all the major corporations in Zhonghai banded together, they couldn’t contend with it. If we can use this opportunity to gain Li Corporation’s support, then taking down the other corporations in Zhonghai, including Ling Corporation, would be like flipping one’s hand," Fang Yan said coldly.
Fang Rushan’s eyes lit up, "You’re right, Yan’er, this is a good opportunity."
"It seems you’ve indeed matured a lot since before, understanding much more," Fang Rushan said, looking at Fang Yan with so satisfaction, while the latter’s eyes shone with an eerie light.
In a suite within a hotel, Li Tiancheng sat on the sofa, puffing on a cigar, his gaze slightly narrowed, lost in thought.
At that mont, the door to his room opened, and Li Haoming slowly walked in, approaching Li Tiancheng.
"Haoming, is there sothing you need?" Li Tiancheng looked at Li Guangquan and spoke.
"Dad, did we really co all the way to Zhonghai just for a pearl? What’s so special about that pearl?" Li Haoming couldn’t help asking, his eyes filled with curiosity.
Li Tiancheng’s gaze sharpened, and he exhaled a circle of smoke, saying, "You don’t need to worry about this matter. You just need to know that this pearl is very important to , the entire Li Family, and even the Li Corporation. That’s all you need to know for now. Go get so rest."
"Goodnight, Dad." Li Haoming nodded, turned to leave, but at that mont, the door to the bathroom suddenly opened. The beautiful young woman who had been following Li Tiancheng erged, wearing a provocative red nightgown, with a towel in her hands drying her hair, her face glowing with the radiant beauty of soone fresh from a bath.
Li Haoming’s eyes turned to this woman, and she likewise looked at him. Their gazes intertwined in the air for a mont before Li Haoming walked out, while the beautiful young woman shifted her eyes subtly and sat down next to Li Tiancheng.
"Tiancheng, this is my first ti in Zhonghai. How about you show a good ti?" The beautiful young woman lay in Li Tiancheng’s arms and said in a coquettish voice.
"I have other matters to deal with and no ti. Have Haoming take you out for so fun instead."
A flash of an unusual expression crossed the beautiful young woman’s eyes as she said, "Alright then."
In another room, Li Haoming stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing down at the colorful night view outside, his eyes glittering sharply.
Soon, a man in a suit walked up behind Li Haoming, bowing his body.
"Is everything arranged properly?" Li Haoming’s voice rose slowly.
"Young Master, everything is in order, with no issues at all," the man said in a deep voice.
"Rember, if this plan fails, it will cost you and our lives. So there’s absolutely no room for error this ti, understand?" Li Haoming’s voice suddenly beca low and forceful, his last words leaving no room for doubt.
"Yes, Young Master," the man in the suit seriously replied.
"The day has finally co..." Li Haoming murmured to himself.
The next day, Ye Luo’s eyes snapped open, a spark of sharpness within them. A night of cultivation had completely assimilated the Yellow Rank fourth-grade elixir. Ye Luo’s realm hadn’t changed, but he had opened up a great part of his four blocked ridians.
Once the fourth ridian was opened, his strength could increase by several folds. With that, he could easily crush experts at the Innate Late Stage with his sheer strength.
Even experts at the Innate Peak Stage would hardly surpass him in strength, and once he broke through to the Innate Late Stage in cultivation, he was confident he could confront beings at the Half-Saint Realm.
However, Ye Luo was currently completely ignorant about the Saint Realm. He only knew that it was above the Innate Realm, but what sort of realm it really was, he was completely in the dark.
It seed that he would need to have a good talk with a Saint Realm expert when the ti ca.
Leaving the room, Ye Luo saw Lin Xiaoyan preparing breakfast, while Luo Jingxuan was wearing yoga attire, practicing yoga, allowing Ye Luo another glimpse of Luo Jingxuan’s flawless figure.
"Brother Ye, you’re up. Co have breakfast after you wash up," Lin Xiaoyan said to Ye Luo.
