“Grand Patriarch, Su Han can cultivate again. And he’s opened eight dragon veins…” The person’s body shuddered, but he still opened his mouth nevertheless.

“So what if he’s opened eight dragon veins?!”

Lin Chengsong said angrily, “The lot of you were unable to protect Heng’er with this many people. A mere Dragon Vein Realm cultivator is able to kill Heng’er under the noses of so many Dragon Blood Realm cultivators?”

“He’s just too strong.”

When talking about Su Han, the person’s eyes were still somewhat shocked. “Su Han may only be a Dragon Vein Realm cultivator, but he has numerous dragon techniques. Su Han even crippled one of Guest Official Liu Yong’s arms.”

Guest Official Liu Yong was the burly man who had fought against Su Han and had his palm shredded by the white tiger.

“Heng’er is already dead. You should just die along with him!”

Lin Chengsong waved his palm, and a strong dragon Qi erupted and violently struck the follower’s chest.

Bam!

The follower was only an early stage Dragon Blood Realm cultivator. He couldn’t resist. In the moment that he was struck, his body exploded into pieces.

Everyone around allowed the blood to be spilled onto them. They didn’t even dare let out a breath.

“Inform the Chen Clan: we’re attacking the Su.”

The short eight words were enough to let everyone feel the extreme coldness and intention to kill.

…

At the same time, in the Chen Clan…

“Big Brother, you must avenge me!”

Chen Yi cried in front of a young man, saying, “That bastard Su Han—not only did he kill our Chen Clan’s guest official, Huang Feng, he even made me kneel in front of him. I would be fine if we let him off the hook… however, if this gets out, think about the impact it would have on our Chen Clan’s reputation!”

“I thought Su Han lost the ability to cultivate, didn’t he?” The young man frowned.

The young man was Chen Yi’s big brother, the brightest genius of the Chen Clan—Chen Feng.

“Apparently the bastard can cultivate again. Moreover, he’s opened eight dragon veins!” Chen Yi said as he gritted his teeth.

“Eight dragon veins? He killed the strongest middle stage Dragon Blood Realm cultivator with only eight dragon veins?” Chen Feng’s brows frowned even deeper.

“I don’t care; Big Brother, you have to help me on this!”

“Rest assured. The Lin Clan won’t let this slide, either. If Su Han dares make my brother kneel for him, he’s lived long enough!”

Chen Feng’s cold eyes flickered. “However, let’s wait for a bit. Father has shut himself in to concentrate on cultivating. He should be out in a few days. When he does, he should have a breakthrough in his strength. By then, even if the whole Su Clan put in their best effort, they wouldn’t be able to survive us!”

“Alright, then let’s allow the bastard to live on for a couple more days!” Chen Yi said with a ferocious face.

…

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

Within his room, Su Han looked at a black longsword that he held in his hand. He said to himself, “Although it’s a huge gap away from the Fiend God Sword, it’s considered alright given the current conditions. It should be able to withstand the impact of the ‘First Destroyer Sword’.”

Next to Su Han, there was a sword sheath.

Su Han stabbed the sword into the sheath and attached it to his waist. Then, he got up from his bed and stretched lazily.

“It’s already been half a month….” Su Han mumbled.

Su Han looked around and saw many vials, big and small. At a glance, there must have been at least a dozen.

All of the vials were full of tonic pills. Among them, the lowest grade ones were at least upper grade tonic pills like the Elder Spirit Pill.

There were also a couple of extreme grade tonic pills, the ‘Life Blood Pill’. Su Han planned to use those after breaking through and becoming a Dragon Blood Realm cultivator.

“Guard, come in,” Su Han yelled.

The room door opened, and someone walked in from outside. It was Hu Feng.

The Su Clan guards were now basically loyal to Su Han. Moreover, Su Han had protected Hu Feng’s and Zhang Hai’s families earlier, so the two were even more devoted to him.

“Inform the Thousand Treasure Pavilion to bring gold pieces for the tonic pills,” Su Han said indifferently.

“Yes.”

Hu Feng nodded and complied. Without Su Han noticing, he also caught a glimpse of the jade vials around Su Han. His heart raged like the sea and his shock was multiplied infinitely.

“Young Master Su Han, you became a pill refiner…”

Hu Feng snorted in his heart, Su Yunchen and the others still consider the inner disciples of the Frost Cloud Sect to be reputable figures. Compared to a pill refiner like Young Master Su Han, what the hell are Frost Cloud Sect inner disciples?

“Here are two vials of tonic pills. One for you and one for Zhang Hai.” Su Han tossed Hu Feng two vials of tonic pills.

“Thank you, Young Master!”

Hu Feng was filled with excitement. These were precious tonic pills!

In his whole life of cultivating, he had never tasted tonic pills.

A tonic pill of the lowest grade cost at least a thousand gold pieces. As for Hu Feng, a year of working for the Su Clan only got him a hundred gold pieces, so he wasn’t willing to buy one.

The vial of tonic pills Su Han gave him was worth tens of thousands of gold pieces. That was equivalent to his pay for working in the Su Clan for a hundred years.

Very soon, Hu Feng excused himself from the room.

After half an hour, the people from the Thousand Treasure Pavilion took the tonic pills and left. As for Su Han’s card, it had turned into a gold card.

“Four million, eight hundred and thirty thousand gold pieces…” Su Han mumbled.

The Thousand Treasure Pavilion golden card was only issued after depositing more than a million gold pieces.

Disregarding the hundred and fifty thousand gold pieces Su Han had left, the tonic pills had earned Su Han a total of four million, six hundred and eighty thousand gold pieces.

This was a humongous number. Even the Xiao Clan’s yearly profits were only around seven hundred thousand gold pieces. Su Han had earned seven years’ worth of Xiao Clan profits in half a month.

As such, it could be seen how profitable a profession pill refining was.

“If I buy more ingredients and refine a few more tonic pills, I will be able to buy a storage ring. Otherwise, it’s too troublesome.”

In his past life, Su Han had used a ‘Heaven Treasure Grotto’, which had an unworldly space inside. Not only items, even living beings could be stored inside it.

After being accustomed to such a treasure, it made Su Han consider that even carrying a bag was too troublesome.

“Although I have told Old Lee to keep an eye out for storage rings, in a shithole like Far Mountain Province, a storage ring is far too valuable. Even with money, one probably couldn’t even buy it.”

“Whatever. I’ll think more about it after I cultivate.”

The ten Elder Spirit Pills from before had already allowed Su Han to open thirty-two meridians.

In fact, on the Martial Dragon Continent, with more than five dragon veins and the help of some beast blood, one could break through and become a Dragon Blood Realm cultivator.

When the Martial Dragon Continent first appeared, the cultivators all used dragon blood to break through and become Dragon Blood Realm cultivators. That was how they came to possess such powerful strength.

However, as time passed and as there were more and more humans, everyone’s strength was uneven.

Moreover, the giant dragons on the Martial Dragon Continent were already scary enough. It simply became too hard to get dragon blood.

Without the help of dragon blood, the cultivators had to be content with using beast blood to break through.

The stronger the beast blood, the more valuable it was. Of course, if stronger beast blood was used to break through, one would also naturally be much stronger than others.

Many of the Dragon Blood Realm cultivators that were able to vanquish opponents of the same level had used the blood of a high grade fiend beast to break through.
