Chapter 220: Chapter 2: Be Prepared for Danger in Times of Safety; Abundant Year with Fortunate Snow

With the third emperor of the Xia seizing power and ascending the throne, the news immediately spread from the capital city to all directions.

People from the world were all amazed, as there had never been a female ruler before.

In Nanyu Prefecture, a cold wind chilled to the bone.

Compared to the heavy snow in the north, this place was even colder, and the only way to keep warm was to burn coal stoves.

As the New Year approached, whether cultivators or ordinary people, all returned to their hometowns to spend time with their families and relatives.

Cultivators naturally also had families, and those who were alone at an old age were, after all, a minority.

Most of them were young sect disciples.

The sects were quite humane, allowing disciples to return to their parents' homes during the New Year.

In a pavilion of the Heavenly Treasures Trade Association branch, the fragrance of medicine overflowed.

“That's right, control the heat like this,” said an unkempt elder with a slightly open eye, patiently guiding with a leisurely tone, “Innate Fire is the dao fire condensed within cultivators in the Initiation Stage. It can be used for alchemy and refining tools. Don't underestimate it. It is said that mastering Innate Fire to the extreme can even be used for magic to resist enemies. Ancient classics even record that with an Immortal's Samadhi Fire, all living beings in the world can be burned to nothingness.”

“Of course, don't be anxious right now. It's already quite difficult to refine the pill well.”

Zhao Huai closed his eyes, his forehead sweating, and his fingers formed seals. He concentrated his spiritual power on the alchemy furnace in front of him, with the orange flames jumping around and the magic power on his body surging from time to time.

“Puff Puff Puff!”

The hot air bubbled, the lid of the alchemy furnace flipped open and closed, making a loud sound like boiling water.

A rich aroma could already be smelled.

Soon, Zhao Huai stopped exerting his efforts, and the movements of the alchemy furnace quickly ceased.

He opened his eyes, ready to see the results.

Opening the furnace lid, a mist of pill fragrance rose and blew onto his face.

Several glossy pills were lying quietly in the furnace.

The unkempt elder took a look and gave his evaluation, “Not bad, seven pills have been produced, which can be considered top-notch.”

“You've only been learning for a few days, and you can already refine high-quality qi-gathering pills.”

“Tsk tsk, your aptitude and memory are quite astonishing. When I was learning this thick stack of Summary of Pill Scriptures, it took me a full three months. You finished reading it in three days and even memorized it completely; have you fully grasped it?”

Zhao Huai, having received praise, only smiled slightly without being arrogant, but humbly said, “It's all thanks to the good teaching of my senior. Gu Daozi's reputation is indeed well-deserved.”

It was still the effect of the Heavenly Heart Wisdom Eyes destiny that was too real. He had finished reading the so-called Summary of Pill Scriptures in half a day.

If it weren't for other matters, it wouldn't have taken three days.

Gu Daozi smoothed his white beard in frustration, not believing Zhao Huai's lies, and sighed:

“Ah, you were doing well with sword cultivation. Why do you insist on competing with me for my job? Is it because your sect doesn't give you pills?”

“Actually, I am not a sect disciple.”

Zhao Huai didn't intend to hide it and spoke directly.

“You're not a disciple of the Spiritual Mountains?”

Gu Daozi asked in surprise.

“Yes, I entered the Immortal Cultivation on my own, just like a loose cultivator.”

Having a good relationship with Gu Daozi after several days, and considering their future cooperation, Zhao Huai decided to tell the truth.

“Being a loose cultivator and having achieved your current cultivation level is quite difficult. Take this, these are the Initiation Pills you asked for.” Gu Daozi handed a porcelain bottle to Zhao Huai as he spoke.

“Thank you, senior.”

Zhao Huai didn't hesitate and immediately accepted the porcelain bottle.

A sixth-grade alchemist can completely refine Initiation Pills, and many of his Yan Country subordinates who are stuck at refining qi are just lacking qi-gathering pills and Initiation Pills.

In less than a year, he would be able to cultivate a large number of cultivators in the Initiation Stage.

It sounded as if reaching the Initiation Realm had become quite simple.

In reality, it wasn't like that. How could ordinary people afford a single qi-gathering pill? Even an inferior qi-gathering pill on the market was worth a thousand taels of silver, let alone the hard-to-obtain Initiation Pill. Like Zhao Huai, who could make friends with a sixth-grade alchemist, was after all a minority.

In the end, it was all thanks to that Medicine King's Order.

Zhao Huai didn't know what kind of identity Yan Jing had in Medicine Pill Valley.

One thing was certain: he still had hidden talents.

The two had agreed to meet again on the immortal path, but they didn't know when they would see each other again.

After bidding farewell to Gu Daozi, Zhao Huai soon returned to Yan Tang Manor.

As soon as he entered the door, Song Zhishu, dressed in a scholar's robe, hurriedly ran over, as if there was an urgent matter.

“Your Highness, the latest news!”

“The new emperor of the Xia has ascended the throne.”

Song Zhishu made a courteous bow and reported.

Zhao Huai nodded and asked, “Have you found out who it is yet?” “Your Highness, it is the once-famous princess of the Xia.”

“A female emperor?”

Zhao Huai looked somewhat surprised.

As expected, Yin Nanyu's words had become reality. Those who could become empresses were not simple, and they were by no means ordinary people.

Was she really like the rumors said, a human-slaughtering demoness? If that was the case, it might be a disaster for the Xia, and this empress could be a tyrant.

Song Zhishu said, “Yes, with her in power, the Xia's territory has basically stabilized, while the Northern Wolf Empire remains entrenched in the north, holding its forces in check.”

Zhao Huai pondered for a moment and said, “Keep investigating the internal news of the Xia, the more detailed, the better. It would be best to find out what kind of person this Empress of the Xia is. I will leave these matters to you, as I may have to start secluding myself soon, and I won't appear for a long time..”
