Chapter 263 Out of Danger

Since Lyu Liang had stimulated the Divine Mark once, he could merely maintain the cultivation below the Heavenly Master level by burning his Divine Soul…

The deep astonishment and desperation had deprived him of any thoughts of fighting.

“Drug Emperor? One of the eight Immortal Generals?”

He did not care about this man’s title, but he knew that he was undoubtedly no match for an Immortal General.

Now that this man could subdue Zhu Yu with only one move, he must be exceptionally formidable! Besides, he could tell that even though there was disorder outside, Lyu Liang would surely come to this place, which suggested that he was an astute man!

Lyu Liang did not plan to await his doom, but just as he was ready to fight back, something unexpected appeared in front of him. Then, he was surprised to find that it was the Medicine King’s tripod, which had been in his Virtual Land!

“What!” Two exclamations could be heard. Lyu Liang was somewhat stunned, while Drug Emperor was astonished at first, and then, his eyes began to turn red.

“I-is it you…” Drug Emperor’s murderous intent disappeared, and instead, he had an excited look on his face.

Just then, Medicine King’s figure emerged from the tripod. With similar excitement on his face, he nodded and said, “Brother… This is the first time that we have met since we separated. I’m very glad to see you, but I never expected that I would meet you in such a situation!”

“I was just wondering why that b*tch couldn’t subdue this guy even with that tricky Dragon-Tiger Pill! So it was you who has been helping him! Are you one of his magic treasures? Alas! However, I’m so glad that you are still alive!” Drug Emperor heaved a deep sigh and began wiping away his tears!

Medicine King shook his head and replied, “I don’t have a master. After we separated, I went to the Mortal World and was found by a girl from the Devil Clan. Then, I met a powerful figure, who eventually regathered my broken souls. To repay their kindness, I decided to follow them for the time being. And now, I am helping this guy because of his relationship with them! Brother, I’m also very delighted that you’re still alive!”

“It is… him! It is said that 120 thousand years ago, there were two brothers whose talents in medicine were unparalleled! The elder one became Drug Emperor with his marvelous capability, while the younger one cultivated himself into a Shennong Universe Tripod to assist his brother!” White said slowly, “From then on, the elder one was known as ‘Drug Emperor’, and the younger one was called ‘Medicine King’. 100 thousand years ago, the elder brother violated one of the three prohibitions and then disappeared from public view. I did not expect that… Well, you are so fortunate…”

Hearing that, Lyu Liang was much astounded, but a glimmer of hope began emerging in his heart.

“Drug Emperor, I’m Lyu Liang from the Chaotic World. I came to the Nether Big World to save my friend’s clansmen in the Northern Mining Area, and my Master in the Western part. I slipped into this place to head for the Wild Domain through the transmission formation, and then will go to the Western area. I did it in this way because I’m still not powerful enough to explore the Eastern and Western areas!” Lyu Liang cupped his hands respectfully. Then, he pointed at Zhu Yu and continued, “My companion also came here for the same reason. Now we are trapped here and can’t beat you at all. But please let my friend leave! As for me, it’s all up to you!”

“Are you kidding? If I hurt you even a little, what would people think of my brother? Alas, alas! To be honest, I really want to cultivate you as medicine material right now, but… alas… Just leave this place! Both of you! Now that I’m in a good mood today, I will just let you go! Anyway, the Icy Peak has nothing to do with me! Even if those guys of the Dark Reign know something about this, they won’t blame me!” Although Drug Emperor looked resigned, he waved his hand, following which, the cage vanished immediately.

“Thanks for your kindness!” Overjoyed, Lyu Liang cupped his hands respectfully and then turned to Medicine King. He knew that, perhaps, it was time to say goodbye.

“Feiwu, now that I’ve met my brother, our agreement will finally come to an end. It’s time to say goodbye.” Medicine King murmured, with a hint of attachment on his face. Meanwhile, a medicinal pill, which was shining with a weird red light, floated out of the tripod to Lyu Liang. “Boy, it is a Barrier-breaking Pill made of my soul. When you meet Mengdao afterward, try to let him take this pill, and there may be a great opportunity for him to recover. I can feel that we are predestined to meet again.”

Just at this moment, Drug Emperor’s hand shone with a bright cyan light. The next second, a furnace appeared and floated toward Lyu Liang. “Boy! This is my Spectral Purple-golden Tripod, which is much more powerful than those ordinary Innate Spirit Treasures! I’ve cleared up the mark on it, and it belongs to you from now on! We two brothers will combine as one, so it’s of no use to me now.”

“Thanks for that!” Although he felt it a pity to lose Medicine King’s tripod, he knew that all good things had to come to an end. After all, these two powerful figures were blood brothers!

“You can go now! Remember to keep a low profile after you reach the Wild Domain. The people there are all very arrogant. Besides, if you confront the cultivators whose robes are embroidered with dragon patterns, try not to get into a conflict with them, because they are the law-executors of the Dark Reign. Once you offend one of them, you will have to deal with a group of those lunatics!” After saying that, Drug Emperor moved sideways, letting them go through.

With a glance at each other, Lyu Liang and Zhu Yu cupped their hands, and then flew into the transmission formation.

“Boy! I have to warn you that no one will be nice to you for no reason! It is odd that some people are trying so hard to save you, Think about it afterward!” This was what Drug Emperor said, just before they disappeared into the formation.

Watching them leave, Medicine King nodded, got into the tripod again, and floated in front of Drug Emperor. Then, with a golden flash, the tripod disappeared at once.

Drug Emperor raised his head and laughed wildly, his aura becoming much more intense. With a red glare, two figures appeared, and one of them was Ancestor Snow, whose hair was red.

“Snow! I will unite with my brother and won’t take your body anymore! Frost should feel fortunate about having died, or I would definitely throw her into my cultivation furnace! It is her disciples who have made all of these happen. Who knows whether they are still lurking there? Anyway, Frost has died, and those Demon b*tches need not exist anymore. Let’s go. It’s time to settle the chaos outside.” Drug Emperor smiled slightly, while Ancestor Snow had a hint of excitement on his face. Then, they disappeared at the same time.

On that day, two things happened at Icy Peak that shocked the Nether Big World!

One was that the name of Frost Peak was removed from Icy Peak. In the event of the Deathly Isolator, a formidable figure finally showed up, and killed all the disciples of Frost Peak with just one blow…

The other thing was that Drug Emperor, one of the eight Immortal Generals, reappeared in public! While Ancestor Frost died and Ancestor Ice was healing himself, Drug Emperor became the new leader there! Besides, Frost Peak was now called Drug Emperor Peak.

Knowing that, the powers of the Nether Big World, including the Dark Reign, felt just a bit surprised, but soon calmed down. Some of them even secretly celebrated about this.

The reason was that the females of the Frost Peak were too notorious!

So many excellent disciples from various famous clans had destroyed their own prospects because of these females’ temptations. However, owing to the influence of the Dark Reign and the Icy Peak, they could only suppress their dissatisfaction.

Now, Drug Emperor appeared and cleared up the entire clan, which was very gratifying to many people…

As for the strength of Icy Peak, it had increased rather than declined. Everyone knew that the emergence of Drug Emperor would undoubtedly strengthen the forces, even if all the former Ancestors had died!

……

In a cave residence on the Snow Peak, Ao Fengxue was talking calmly to a vague light figure in front of him.

“The second squad has been totally destroyed. The captain and the wild beast of the third squad have been killed, and the rest of its people have merged into my first squad. Although Drug Emperor appeared out of nowhere, we finally managed to save Lyu Liang. Please tell us what to do next!” There was absolute compliance in Ao Fengxue’s voice.

“Your losses are too immense. I’m sorry. If Tianji Astrolabe had not hidden that man’s aura, we would not have to set the bait. Lyu Liang has left the Southern area. Please continue to tail him there.” The light figure heaved a slight sigh, his voice full of guilt.

Cupping his hands respectfully, Ao Fengxue said as he frowned slightly, “After this event, our commander may get into trouble. After all, it was he who let Lyu Liang pass the check of Devil’s Nightmare and enter Icy Peak…”

“Don’t worry. Before this thing happened, he had begun preparing for the second step of the plan and left the Burning Ridge! Besides, Ancestor Frost and her disciples have all died, and Drug Emperor does not seem to want to investigate it. As for Ice, he did not know the details, so he will not pose as a threat.” Then, the light figure became more vague. “When the second step is finished, all the secret pawns will be stimulated, and you can join in according to the situation. We don’t have much time left. Once that man’s strength becomes even uncontrollable in this realm, our plan will basically fail. All right, I have to go now. I’m sorry… Alas!”

Ao Fengxue cupped his hand respectfully, until the light figure dissipated totally. As he raised his head, there was a resolute, deep look on his face. After a while, he heaved a sigh, pulled out a pendant from the robe, and gazed at it, with nostalgia in his eyes. Holding it tightly in his hand, he whispered, “I won’t let you be alone in the netherworld! Wait for me! I will soon reunite with you…”

In the pendant was Qin Yun’er sweet smiling face, and beside her was Ao Fengxue, who looked somewhat bashful. Although they were dressed differently, they both had a weird, cyan mark on their robes…
