Chapter 170: The Great Master-level Poisoner
The room was quiet for three minutes.
Ziyan finally spoke up and said: "It's indeed a good opportunity."
"So Miss Ziyan agrees to teach a lesson to the Huoyun tribe and make them behave?" Ice Lian's face had an uncontrollable look of wild joy.
Nodding, Zi Yan said: "Punishment is acceptable, but killing people is not. I will personally inform the family and have a family elder come to mediate." She paused for a moment, then continued, "In that case, since the clan leader cannot attend, the Sixth Elder has the strongest abilities, so let him prepare instead."
Ice Lan patted her chest and said, "I'll take care of this matter."
He didn't leave immediately.
"Anything else?" Ziyan asked.
"This." Binglan said with some difficulty, "Miss Ziyuan also understands that Huoyun tribe's eldest grandson, Minghuan, is already a mid-tier Heaven King expert. Among the Ice Moon tribe, no one except for the tribe leader can defeat him. If he doesn't protect the Flame Spirit Fruit, I'm afraid we'll only be going to get taught a lesson by him."
Ziyan nodded, this is true.
The situation of the two major races is clear to each other, and their strengths are almost equal. The two tribal leaders are both at the mid-level of the Tian Wang realm, one level higher than the elder.
"Do you want me to delay Sun Minghuan?" Ziyan asked back.
"It's settled," Bing Lang said, "Only Miss Ziyan's identity can make Sun Minghan not participate in the duel and also not guard the Flame Spirit Fruit. In this way, we can hold back the Fire Cloud Tribe's expert, seize the Flame Spirit Fruit, and give the Fire Cloud Tribe a profound lesson."
Ziyan's delicate eyebrows furrowed, with a thoughtful expression.
Xie Ao Yu looked at everything with a discerning eye, muttering to himself that it was probably all about the Flame Spirit Fruit and letting the two races clash, this Flame Spirit Fruit even if it's a divine product, it doesn't seem worth going to such great lengths.
What is the effect of Flame Spirit Fruit?
He was very puzzled in his heart.
"Alright, I can agree to this," Ziyan said thoughtfully. "However, there's one condition - the Flame Spirit Fruit must be handed over to me for processing."
"That's natural, that's natural." Bing Leng nodded and said.
Xie Ao Yu then keenly caught a thread of doubt disappearing from Bing Lang's eyes.
Indeed, since the Flame Spirit Fruit is so important, if Zi Yan agreed so lightly, it would inevitably raise suspicions. However, Zi Yan wanted to handle the Flame Spirit Fruit personally, which dispelled Bing Lan's slight doubt.
Binglan left.
After Ziyan confirmed with a nod, Bingyexuan suddenly stood up.
"Damn it, Ice Lian, it's actually him!" Xuan's hair stood on end with rage, his eyes shooting murderous intent. "Bastard, this bastard, is actually going to hand the Flame Spirit Fruit over to the Black Lotus Sacred Sect, damn it!"
Several others also had murderous intentions.
It seems that Yan Lingguo has touched a nerve of some people, including Ziyan.
Only Xie Ao Yu was bewildered, what effect does Flame Spirit Fruit have?
"They're really ambitious." Ziyan's face was cold and detached as she said, "It seems that Ge Mingde plans to take the Black Lotus Sacred Sect to a higher level after returning."
"Miss Ziyan, shall we launch another attack on the Black Lotus Sect? Let's annihilate them." Ice Night Xuan said irritably.
Ziyan shook her head and said in a low voice, "It's not that easy. After the Black Lotus Sacred Sect was surrounded once, they hid their headquarters. It's hard to find them, let alone the fact that not everyone in the Black Lotus Sacred Sect has a black lotus on their forehead. The siege must be carefully planned."
"What should we do now?" asked Bing Ye Xuan.
"Little brother, you say it." Ziyan smiled and said.
Xie Ao Yu rubbed his nose, although he didn't know what the Flame Spirit Fruit was, it was clear that the Black Lotus Sacred Sect's goal was indeed the Flame Spirit Fruit. They were using the Ice Moon Tribe to restrain the Fire Cloud Tribe's experts and then make a move on the Flame Spirit Fruit. As for why the Black Lotus Sacred Sect wasn't attacking head-on, it was because they were worried about the interference of the Zi Yan family.
Once that's clear, things will be simple. Xie Ao Yu smiled and said: "This is easy, sister isn't going to stall the Huo Yun tribe leader? Then we'll go over and discuss with the Huo Yun tribe leader, let the two tribes have a 'duel'."
"Duel? Are you really going to fight?" Ice Night Xuan frowned and said.
"Of course it's not the real thing." Xie Ao Yu smiled as he expressed his thoughts.
After listening, Bing Ye Xuan burst out laughing and said: "Xie Shao is indeed more cunning than others."
Xie Ao Yu said: "This matter must be handled with caution, and cannot be revealed to anyone. Hmm, I believe that tomorrow, Bing Xiong will definitely be asked by Bing Lan to stay here and watch the clan leader, so the clan leader can disguise himself as an ordinary Ice Moon Clan expert and participate in the 'duel'."
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Ziyan and thank you, Xiao." Ice Night Xuan smiled.
They discussed some details of the plan again, and Ziyan and Xie Ao Yu left the Bingyue tribe and headed to the Huoyun tribe's residence, which was a volcanic region.
The Huoyun tribe are born with fire attributes, their cultivation is mostly done in volcanic regions where the fire elements are abundant, which helps them cultivate fire attribute Dou Qi and may even transform it into a more powerful Dou Qi, although the probability is very low.
All the way forward, Xie Ao Yu has been entangled with Yan Ling Guo.
"What exactly is the Flame Spirit Fruit and why does the Black Lotus Sect want to seize it?" Xie Ao Yu asked along the way.
Ziyan chuckled and said, "I thought you could hold back from asking." She playfully kissed the corner of Xie Ao Yu's mouth before continuing, "The Flame Spirit Fruit takes 3,000 years to mature, and only one will appear. Once it matures, both the Ice Moon Clan and the Fire Cloud Clan will produce a tenth-level expert with dual ice and fire attributes."
"Oh?" Xie Ao Yu was very surprised.
A top-notch master of the tenth rank isn't something that can be achieved just by having a high innate talent, it also requires unyielding perseverance, an unwillingness to admit defeat and a bit of luck.
This realm is not something that anyone can achieve, even if there are people with extraordinary talent in the family of Ziyuan, and with the full support of the family, it's not necessarily guaranteed. For example, Ziyuan and Youlanruo, although they are said to be future top ten masters, no one dares to say that they will definitely become one.
"Will you definitely become a top ten master?" Xie Ao Yu asked.
"Definitely!" Zi Yan smiled and said, "You don't know that the Ice Moon Clan and Fire Cloud Clan were both major bloodlines of the ancient gods during the Holy War era. At that time, having a bloodline was very mysterious, as long as you had both ice and fire attributes, taking the Flame Spirit Fruit in the Ice Moon Lake could make you reach the Heavenly King level. Now, with the emergence of the Ice Moon Spring Water, its power is even greater. Two thousand years ago, an ancestor who broke into the War King realm checked it out and said that as long as you take the Flame Spirit Fruit and cultivate in the Ice Moon Lake, you can lay the foundation to become a top Ten Kings level expert, no problem!"
It turns out it's related to blood vessels.
Xie Ao Yu muttered to himself and asked: "How many people are there in the two tribes that possess both ice and fire attributes bloodline? It shouldn't be too many, right?"
"Bing Ge is alone." Zi Yan said with a smile.
"It's him, no wonder he got your family's approval, haha, if your family gets a tenth-level master, then in the future, the family's status will probably be elevated." Xie Ao Yu smiled and said, a family with two tenth-level masters is absolutely shocking, with great deterrent power against any force.
This is why Yin Feng chose to control Bing Ge, not because he was the son of Bing Jie, but because he possessed both ice and fire attributes.
He can become a top-notch master of the tenth rank.
The Black Lotus Sect also wants to get a tenth-level master, after all, the Ice Moon Clan and the Fire Cloud Clan are closely related to Ziyan's family. If there is one more tenth-level master, then with Ziyan's family's determination to destroy the Black Lotus Sect, that is absolutely not what the Black Lotus Sect hopes to see.
It turns out that Xie Ao Yu felt very happy, he owed a debt of gratitude to Bing Gong, who had not only saved his life but also cleared his name. It seemed that this future top ten master and he should have a pretty good friendship.
"So this time, we must protect the Flame Spirit Fruit." Ziyan said.
Xie Ao Yu nodded slightly.
From the Bingyue tribe to the Huoyun tribe is not far, only three hours away, they spent only one hour and arrived at the Huoyun tribe's residence.
The terrain is undulating, but mostly volcanic.
The surrounding flowers, grass and trees are very scarce, at least some of the vegetation that can tolerate extremely high temperatures is growing, mostly in a light red color, and there are many magical beasts, all of which are fire-attribute magical beasts.
The Huoyan people live right in the heart of these volcanoes.
For others, living here is always worrying about the volcanic eruption. For them, a volcanic eruption would be good, and at that time, it will be of great help to those who practice Huoyun tribe's Dou Qi.
Ziyan arrived smoothly without any obstacles.
Her identity makes it so.
The two men went straight to the chief of the Huoyun tribe, Sun Minghuan. He was a slender man with a head of fiery red long hair and eyes that occasionally flashed with a hint of sharpness.
After everyone was sent away, Zi Yan said: "I came this time for the matter of Bing Yue and Huo Yun's two tribes."
"Miss Ziyan, that poison was absolutely not applied by me." Sun Minghuan said with a bitter smile.
Ziyan said, "Mm-hmm, I know. The head of the Bingye Xuan clan also doesn't think you'd do something like this. We all understand your character. Have you ever thought about who touched your sword before your duel with the head of the Bingye Xuan clan?"
"I've always thought that I have a duel with Bing Yexuan three times a year, for twenty years, through wind and rain, unchanged. It's just to hone my skills and increase my strength. So before each duel, I would hand over my weapon to my wife, she is a master craftsman, I want her to check my weapon." Sun Minghuan said.
"Madam Gu will certainly not poison." Ziyan smiled slightly.
"Hmm, I've also investigated her, and it's indeed not her." Sun Minghan's face turned gloomy, "When she was holding my weapon, three people came looking for her, they were the three elders of our clan, but which one exactly, we still haven't figured out."
Ziyan smiled and said, "With a goal, it's easier to handle." She paused slightly and continued, "This time, the ones who made a move are the Black Lotus Sacred Sect's Yin Feng, their goal is to seize the Flame Spirit Fruit."
"What?!"
Sun Minghan suddenly stood up, "How did Miss Ziyan know about the Flame Spirit Fruit?"
"What? The Flame Spirit Fruit is ripe and you haven't told anyone?" Zi Yan asked.
"No, there is one person." Sun Minghan said slowly, "It's the Second Elder Sun Mingwen. He was also one of the three elders who went to see my wife!" His face looked extremely ugly as he said, "No wonder, no wonder he repeatedly suggested that I inform the other elders about the maturity of the Flame Spirit Fruit. Fortunately, I didn't agree, otherwise it would be hard to determine if it was really him."
Xie Ao smiled to himself, this Sun Minghan was indeed cunning. It was clear that his weapon had been poisoned, which made him suspicious of the Second Elder Sun Mingwen, but he just didn't have any evidence yet.
He is now strongly interested in the so-called Poison Master, who is rumored to be the most promising candidate to become a super poison master like Evil Master Batulu. I wonder if he can defeat him with his own Medicine God Finger.
