The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 413 - : Waiting

Chapter 413: Chapter 413: Waiting

“Who is coming out this time?”

“Is it Fang Lin or Su Xiaotong?”

“Anyway, it can only be the two of them.”

···

Very soon, everyone saw who came out, a delicate and pretty figure—it was none other than Su Xiaotong.

Compared to Zhao Shenkong’s gloomy face when he appeared, Su Xiaotong’s face was calm, with a slight hint of joy between her brows. Apparently, she was in a good mood.

Seeing Su Xiaotong come out with joy, Elder Su was also relieved. It seemed that her granddaughter had indeed gained something from this trip to the Pill Pole Tower.

Su Xiaotong’s gains were not insignificant. She had comprehended half of the murals in the corridor, gaining a wealth of insight from the ancient Alchemy Tao masters. At this moment, Su Xiaotong felt herself rising to a new height. As long as she slowly digested these insights, her Alchemy Tao strength would surge.

At this time, Su Xiaotong was looking somewhat puzzled at the group from Qian Country. Seeing Elder Su wave at her, she walked over.

“Xiaotong, quickly tell grandpa about your gains inside the tower,” Elder Su asked eagerly.

Su Xiaotong said, “I received insights from many predecessors of Alchemy Tao.”

Upon hearing this, Elder Su immediately beamed with joy. His face was full of satisfaction, while the others from Qian Country looked on at Su Xiaotong with envy.

“What about Fang Lin? Did you see him?” Elder Su asked again.

Su Xiaotong frowned slightly, “Who is Fang Lin?”

Elder Su was rendered speechless but he was accustomed to his granddaughter’s antics. He quickly asked Su Xiaotong to flip through her small booklet.

In no time, Su Xiaotong remembered Fang Lin, and said: “I ran into him, he should have gone to the second floor.”

“What?” Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished. Fang Lin was actually able to enter the second floor, this was a shocking piece of news.

Many people wanted to continue to question Su Xiaotong but she just shook her head without saying a word. Everyone then realized that people who enter the Pill Pole Tower cannot disclose anything about the inside after they come out.

However, even so, the news offered by Su Xiaotong was sufficiently shocking—Fang Lin had entered the second floor of the Pill Pole Tower, which was already a very remarkable demonstration.

“Xiaotong, you go and rest first,” Elder Su said to his granddaughter.

Su Xiaotong shook her head. She didn’t feel any fatigue, and she also wanted to see when Fang Lin would come out.

Right then and there, Su Xiaotong waited with the others from Qian Country for Fang Lin.

Among the crowd, the most embarrassed were Li Jianlong and Li Feng.

As members of the Li Family, they had suffered losses at the hands of Fang Lin twice in a row, and they held deep resentment towards him.

But now, they had to wait here for Fang Lin to come out, which was truly frustrating and depressing.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Black Cauldron City was far from Qian Country and the journey was fraught with danger, requiring Elder Su’s protection, they would have left Black Cauldron City a long time ago.

For Li Jianlong and Li Feng, the waiting time at this moment was pure torture.

After another ten days, Fang Lin had still not come out of the Pill Pole Tower, causing many people to be puzzled.

Some speculated that Fang Lin had probably entered the third floor and obtained unimaginable opportunities.

However, not many believed such speculation, after all, just entering the second floor was already astonishing enough, it seemed unlikely that Fang Lin, who was a genius among geniuses, could enter the third floor.

After all, those past geniuses seemed to have never entered the third floor, and even if some had, they were likely not more than two or three.

Of course, they wouldn’t know that at that moment, Fang Lin was indeed within the third floor.

Due to uncertainty about when Fang Lin would come out, Elder Su, after much consideration, decided to send Su Xiaotong and others back to Qian Country first, while he himself stayed to wait for Fang Lin.

Since the road from Black Cauldron City to Qian Country was long and fraught with danger, Elder Su asked Zhuge Cang to arrange for someone to escort Su Xiaotong and others to the border of Qian Country.

Once they reached the border of Qian Country, Pill Alliance’s people would come to meet them.

On the same day, under the escort of a few high-ranking figures from Black Cauldron City, Su Xiaotong and the others left Black Cauldron City.

For the members of the Li Family, it was undoubtedly the best decision. They had been eager to leave Black Cauldron City for a long time.

However, both Li Jianlong and Li Feng’s mood were very heavy on their return journey. The reason was simple—though the Pill Alliance of Qian Country had suppressed the other two countries in this competition, they had suffered defeat at the hands of Fang Lin, even losing the Heavenly Blue Liquid and the essence blood of Mysterious Golden Sparrow to him.

During these days, they had been hearing the scolding and accusations from Li Family’s high-ranking elders through the Message Transmitting Jade Slip every day.

Even the Family Head of Li family had lambasted them, telling them not to return to the Li family and to fend for themselves.

Though they knew these were most likely impulsive comments from Li Zhendong, and the Li family wouldn’t just abandon two Alchemy Tao geniuses, it still left Li Jianlong and Li Feng anxious.

Another ten days passed, and within the Purple Mist Sect, Han Yinyue went to meet her father with a look of concern.

“Father, Fang Lin still hasn’t come out of the Pill Pole Tower. What shall we do about my sister’s eyes? I’m afraid we won’t make it to the tri-country competition,” Han Yinyue said to Han Luoyun with a worried look on her face.

Han Luoyun smiled faintly: “No problem. I am sure Fang Lin has got a huge opportunity and just needs some time. Even if Xiaoxing’s eyes don’t get cured in time, I believe she won’t lose to anyone in the tri-country competition.”

Han Yinyue bit her lip lightly, “It has been confirmed that the representative of Yun Country in the tri-country competition is the Eldest Imperial Son of Yun Country, Zhao Shenji.”

At these words, Han Luoyun nodded, a profound light in his eyes.

Han Yinyue said: “This Zhao Shenji is the most outstanding genius of Yun Country’s royal family. It is said that he has lingered at the peak of the Ninth Layer Earth Element for many years and has started to impact the Heavenly Origin realm. His strength is unfathomable. Xiaoxing might have a hard time handling him.”

Han Luoyun looked at his daughter, and asked seriously: “Do you lack confidence in Xiaoxing?”

Han Yinyue shook her head: “I have confidence in my sister, but she has her eyes, which are always a weakness.”

Han Luoyun laughed: “I have already passed the Purple Mist Sky Sutra to Xiaoxing.”

Upon hearing this, Han Yinyue looked up suddenly, a look of surprise on her face.

“Now, you shouldn’t be too worried anymore, should you?” Han Luoyun said.

Han Yinyue nodded, if her sister had mastered the full Purple Mist Sky Sutra, there indeed was no need to worry too much. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

However, Han Yinyue still hoped that Fang Lin could return in time, cure Han Xiaoxing’s eyes, and eliminate any weakness in her younger sister.

In Black Cauldron City, outside the Pill Pole Tower, Elder Su and Zhuge Cang were chatting casually. Suddenly, the door of the Pill Pole Tower swung open abruptly.

In an instant, numerous figures gathered in front of the Pill Pole Tower.

“Fang Lin is coming out!”
