The Supreme Lord Donghuang Chapter 293

“Zhou Donghuang, please do not be mistaken.”

Yu Yucheng smiled at him kindly and said, “The Sky Sun fruit is yours, it's up to you whether you wish to sell or exchange it or not. Nobody can force you to do anything.

“I am here to find you to remind you about something.

“Just now, after you left, the fourteenth prince of the Qi Dynasty, Qi Rui, threatened you right in front of me… in his own words, he said that in the Hengliu galaxy, if a talent were to halt his growth halfway and no longer be able to progress, that man would be useless!”

As he spoke, the smile on Yu Yucheng's face disappeared completely, replaced by a serious expression as he continued, “In the future, before you have enough power to protect yourself well, you should try not to leave the Lightning Sword Sect if you can avoid it.

“Even if you must leave, you must tell the Valley Head about it, and let him follow you out.”

Yu Yucheng added, “Later, I will inform the Valley Head about this.”

Now, Zhou Donghuang was a precious treasure in the eyes of Yu Yucheng. Based on Zhou Donghuang's natural talent and ability, once he grew up and got even stronger, he would surely be a titan in the Hengliu galaxy. Furthermore, at his young age, he would be in no hurry to leave the Hengliu galaxy for greener pastures even after he reached the Divine Transformation stage.

In the Hengliu galaxy, those who were eager to leave the galaxy to head to other planets and galaxies with better training environments and resources were mostly older Divine Transformation adepts. They were all rushing to break through to the next stage because if they were too slow, that would mean the end of their lives.

“Based on the talent and ability that Zhou Donghuang has displayed to date, if he continues in this manner… even when he reaches the late Divine Transformation stage, his life will probably not even be at the halfway point yet. He will have no need to rush to leave the Hengliu galaxy, and at that point, he can surely lead our Lightning Sword Sect to greater heights. We can become superior to all the other sects of the Alliance, standing alongside the two Transcendental Forces of the galaxy!”

Yu Yucheng had high hopes for Zhou Donghuang.

In fact, the day after the Alliance Hunt had ended, the other sects of the Alliance had tried to poach Zhou Donghuang from the Lightning Sword Sect precisely because they recognized his potential and wanted him to become a part of their sects.

“Thank you for your reminder, Sect Leader.”

Although he was well aware that Yu Yucheng was taking such good care of him because of the extraordinary talent and skill that he had displayed, Zhou Donghuang still accepted his goodwill.

Next, Yu Yucheng and Zhou Donghuang returned to the Autumn Valley together.

After returning to the Autumn Valley, Zhou Donghuang returned to his own residence and got busy preparing the Sky Sun elixir.

As for Yu Yucheng, he looked for the Autumn Valley Head, He Jin.

Zhou Donghuang's safety, to a certain extent, concerned the future of the Lightning Sword Sect. There was a reason for him to be as careful and cautious as possible.

Yu Yucheng only left reassured after he had spoken to He Jin about the matter.

“That Elder Dong is probably still waiting for Zhou Donghuang's response.”

Yu Yucheng could easily guess the thoughts of the Guangling Academy elder, Dong Fangyou. He was definitely waiting to see if Zhou Donghuang would return and take him up on his offer. After all, he was certain that what the Guangling Academy had offered Zhou Donghuang was surely worth much more than whatever the Qi Dynasty could offer.

“Hmm?”

However, when Dong Fangyou saw Yu Yucheng return alone, he could not help but frown slightly.

Did the Qi Dynasty really offer something even better than what the Guangling Academy had offered Zhou Donghuang?

That was highly unlikely.

“Elder Dong.”

Yu Yucheng smiled awkwardly and said, “The Sky Sun fruit, the Guangling Academy will not be able to get it… you can also go back. Of course, if Elder Dong wishes to stay a few days in our Lightning Sword Sect, you will be more than welcome here.”

“Did he give the Sky Sun fruit to the Qi Dynasty?” asked Dong Fangyou in a low tone.

“No.”

Yu Yucheng shook his head and answered, “Before those from the Qi Dynasty could even offer anything, Zhou Donghuang had already flatly rejected them and left before they could say anything.”

Yu Yucheng's words shocked Dong Fangyou. “That boy rejected them even before they could make an offer?”

At that point, he realized that he had misunderstood Zhou Donghuang. He had originally thought that Zhou Donghuang had wanted to compare the offer from both parties before making a decision, but now, it looked like Zhou Donghuang was really unwilling to give up the Sky Sun fruit in his hands.

“Indeed.” Yu Yucheng nodded.

“Haha… looks like our Guangling Academy still commands more respect than them, at least he waited to hear what I had to offer.”

After confirming with Yu Yucheng, Dong Fangyou laughed and said, “Forget it, since that boy is so unwilling, then our Guangling Academy will not try to force it either.

“Farewell, Sect Leader Yu!”

After hearing that the Qi Dynasty did not even have the chance to make an offer for the Sky Sun fruit, Dong Fangyou seemed extremely happy. It was as if he was not at all disappointed that he had failed to obtain the Sky Sun fruit for the Guangling Academy.

In fact, as he left, he had a smile on his face.

“It has always been said that the Guangling Academy and the Qi Dynasty are like water and fire… today, that has indeed been proven to be the case.”

After sending Dong Fangyou out of the door, Yu Yucheng reflected to himself.

Qi Rui, the fourteenth prince of the Qi Dynasty, led the Qi Dynasty official, Chu Wei, as they left the Lightning Sword Sect. His expression was still stone cold as he said, “Uncle Chu, I cannot take this lying down… I think, you must be feeling the same way?”

Hearing this, Chu Wei's hawk-like eyes also flashed murderously. “That Zhou Donghuang is indeed behaving very rudely.”

“Uncle Chu, I want him dead!”

Qi Rui's eyes were burning with hatred, eager to kill.

Normally, in the royal family of the Qi Dynasty, he was used to being looked down upon by his elder siblings. They had royal blood just like him and were the direct descendants of Emperor Qi. They were more talented in martial arts than him, so it was acceptable for them to look down on him.

But this little disciple of the Lightning Sword Sect, someone of lowly inferior blood, also dared to look down on him like that?

He could not take that lying down!

“Fourteenth Prince.”

As compared to Qi Rui's irrational rage, Chu Wei was much calmer as he said, “You should not have said those words in front of Yu Yucheng just now… by saying that, both he and Zhou Donghuang will be prepared.

“Things like this will alert the enemy to the danger instead,” explained Chu Wei.

“So what if they are prepared? Can Yu Yucheng possibly stick by Zhou Donghuang's side all the time, such that wherever Zhou Donghuang goes, he will also follow?”

Qi Rui laughed with disdain as he said, “The whole Lightning Sword Sect, including Yu Yucheng, has just two Divine Transformation adepts… even if I threatened Zhou Donghuang in front of Yu Yucheng today, he and the other mid Divine Transformation adept of the Lightning Sword Sect cannot possibly be at Zhou Donghuang's side every single minute to protect him.

“Besides the Divine Transformation adepts, is there anyone else in the Lightning Sword Sect who is your match, Uncle Chu?”

As he spoke, Qi Rui looked at Chu Wei with a confident gaze.

A faint smile appeared on Chu Wei's face. He clearly liked what he had just heard. “Fourteenth Prince is right, they are just a small sect, I was worried about nothing.

“However, I cannot always hang around the Lightning Sword Sect to wait for Zhou Donghuang to walk into my trap… later, when we get back, we will still need you to talk to Seventh Prince to ask him to order the spy that we have in the Lightning Sword Sect to stalk Zhou Donghuang and provide us information about his movements.”

The Qi Dynasty had spies in each of the sects of the Alliance, who regularly reported information about the various sects to them.

Now, the seventh prince of the Qi Dynasty was in charge of the spies in the various sects of the Alliance. With just an order from him, the spies in the various sects would act accordingly.

“Sure! I will look for Seventh Brother once we get back!”

QI Rui's eyes flashed excitedly as he nodded eagerly. He looked at Chu Wei and said, “However, as for the act itself, we'll have to trouble you, Uncle Chu.”

“No problem!” Chu Wei agreed without a second thought.

After spending half a day hard at work, Zhou Donghuang finally produced the Sky Sun elixir, using the Sky Sun fruit.

“Who would've thought… who would've thought… looks like using the Vermilion Bird Dharma Power as fire to produce the elixir really has some special effect, such that five elixirs were produced!”

Zhou Donghuang had decided not to produce the Sky Sun elixir in one batch, but did it in two attempts.

The first attempt, he had used the inner Yuan from the White Tiger Dharma Power to produce the fire used to make the elixir. He thought that the White Tiger Dharma Power was the first to reach the late Dharma stage, and the inner Yuan in it would surely be the purest and most effective.

Using half a Sky Sun fruit as the main herb, mixed with the other ingredients, he managed to produce a total of two Sky Sun elixirs.

This was not surprising to Zhou Donghuang, as it was exactly what he had expected.

The second attempt, he had used the inner Yuan from the Vermilion Bird Dharma Power to produce the elixir. He had done this because he wanted to test a hypothesis that he had, but even if it failed, he would probably produce at least one elixir.

In this universe, some beasts or life forms that naturally had the element of fire were more capable at producing elixirs than humans.

They were often able to produce more effective elixirs than humans.

Precisely because of this reason, Zhou Donghuang had thought of his Vermilion Bird Dharma Power. As one of the four great mythical beasts, the vermilion bird naturally possessed a special kind of fire. Using the fire produced from its Dharma Power to produce elixirs could possibly have a better effect.

With this idea, Zhou Donghuang had split the Sky Sun fruit into two portions and made two batches of Sky Sun elixir.

Once the result was out, it showed that his hypothesis was right.

Using the fire forged from the inner Yuan of the Vermilion Bird to produce elixirs was more effective than using the fires from the inner Yuan of the other Dharma Powers!

In fact, it was not just slightly better in effectiveness.

Zhou Donghuang had produced a total of five elixirs in the second batch when he used the Vermilion Bird Dharma Power.

As compared to the two elixirs that were produced by the White Tiger Dharma Power, this batch had three more elixirs!

A total of seven elixirs were produced.

This meant that if he had used the Vermilion Bird Dharma Power from the beginning, he could have been able to produce more than ten elixirs in the end!

Of course, all of this was in hindsight, so Zhou Donghuang was not hung up about this wasted opportunity. There was no place for regret.

“I did not think that I would be able to produce seven Sky Sun elixirs, what a pleasant surprise… seven Sky Sun elixirs, the medicinal effect is no less than seven whole Sky Sun fruits!”

As for what to do with the Seven Sky Sun elixirs, Zhou Donghuang already had a plan.

One each for He Mengxi and Da Zhuang. They would not benefit from more, because for medicines like this, the first elixir would be the most effective, but the effect would be much less from the second one and so on and so forth.
