Chapter 36 — Master and Disciple’s Rift!
At this moment, Empress Yan emerged from the magma lake and entered the ring.
“Master, did it work?” Lin Yan asked eagerly.
“Mm. Yan’er, let’s go back. There’s something I need to discuss with you,” Empress Yan said.
“Okay!” Without even greeting Shen Xueyan, Lin Yan hurriedly left the area.
Instead of returning to Red Cloud City, Lin Yan flew hundreds of miles eastward towards the eastern part of the Red Cloud Mountains, stopping at a cave.
“Master, shall I start refining it now?” Empress Yan’s faint figure appeared, with a hint of fatigue on her enchanting face. Resisting the eruption and sealing of the Green Lotus Heavenly Flame just now had consumed a lot of her soul power.
“Yan’er, there’s something I need to discuss with you,” Empress Yan hesitated. She had originally planned to take out the Primordial Fire and directly find Yang Chen to exchange it for the Soul Stabilizing Pill. However, as master and disciple, she wanted to make things clear to Lin Yan and hoped to gain his consent.
“Master, what is it?” Lin Yan asked excitedly.
“Well … I met with Yang Chen yesterday,” Empress Yan said. “He told me that the reason for his rapid cultivation progress is because he obtained an inheritance. The Green Lotus Heavenly Flame is part of that inheritance. He wants me to give him the Primordial Fire.”
“Impossible!” Lin Yan interrupted. “Master, don’t listen to his nonsense! He just wants the Primordial Fire!”
“But Yan’er, Yang Chen also knows about the existence of Soul Cult cultivators. He’s using this as a threat against me. He even took out a Soul Stabilizing Pill, hoping to exchange it for the Primordial Fire.”
“A threat? This bastard is showing his true colors!” Lin Yan’s face turned fierce. “Master, you must not agree to him! Yang Chen is a despicable man, I’ve known it for a long time! Moreover, the Soul Stabilizing Pill is nowhere near as precious as the Primordial Fire!”
“But Yan’er, the Soul Stabilizing Pill is the most needed pill for me right now!” Empress Yan expressed her thoughts. “I want to use the Soul Stabilizing Pill for the exchange, but don’t worry. After I refine the Soul Stabilizing Pill to stabilize my soul, I can give you my Earth Core Red Fire! It ranks 62nd on the Primordial Fire List, not far from the Green Lotus Heavenly Flame!”
“This …” Lin Yan hesitated. He had long set his sights on the Earth Core Red Fire that his master would give him, as he knew his master would give it to him eventually. After all, his master’s cultivation had already shown signs of being aided by the Primordial Fire. But now, his master wanted to exchange the Earth Core Red Fire for the Green Lotus Heavenly Flame. If that happened, wouldn’t he only have one kind of Primordial Fire?
After some thought, Lin Yan shook his head and said, “Master, how can I take your Earth Core Red Fire? You must not fall for Yang Chen’s tricks! He is a scoundrel!”
“Ah!”
Upon hearing this, Empress Yan couldn’t help but sigh. In fact, she had anticipated Lin Yan’s response before she came. This kid had been coveting her Earth Core Red Fire for a long time. He had asked several times before whether she would give it to him. Now, he was saying he didn’t want it. He wanted both Primordial Fires! Couldn’t he think about her as his master? With the Soul Stabilizing Pill, she wouldn’t have to stay in the dark ring all the time. She had been there for thousands of years and didn’t want to continue staying. Empress Yan felt very disappointed. Just then …
A black figure flew towards the two of them. The figure was very fast, and in an instant, it arrived nearby.
“Soul Cult cultivator!” Empress Yan was stunned, her face changing dramatically.
“Master, did you see that? Yang Chen is an untrustworthy person! You must not give him the Green Lotus Heavenly Flame!” Lin Yan took the opportunity to say.
However, the middle-aged man sneered coldly, “Empress Yan, right? Rest assured, I’m not here to capture you. I am here on behalf of my master to retrieve the strange fire from you!”
“Who is your master?” Empress Yan’s brows furrowed, preparing herself for a life-and-death battle.
“My master is naturally the Holy Son of the Xuantian Sect, Yang Chen!”
“What!?” Empress Yan was stunned. Yang Chen, the master of the Soul Cult cultivator? How could this be possible!?
The middle-aged man continued, “My master has already instructed me to bring the Soul Stabilizing Pill to you!” The middle-aged man threw the Soul Stabilizing Pill directly to Empress Yan.
Empress Yan took it, and Lin Yan hurriedly said, “Master, now that we have the Soul Stabilizing Pill, let’s leave quickly! That idiot Yang Chen is too arrogant!”
Empress Yan sighed and looked at Lin Yan with eyes full of affection.
Yan’er, Yan’er. Do you think everyone else is a fool? Yang Chen sent the Soul Cult cultivator to prevent me from escaping!
“Hmph, leave?” The dry middle-aged man sneered. “Although I am only at the Ninth stage of the Nascent Soul realm, with the secret techniques of the Soul Cult, it isn’t a problem for me to beat your Soul Transformation realm soul body! Think carefully! My master said that if attempt to leave, I can devour your soul!”
“Here’s the Primordial Fire!” Empress Yan threw out a green light.
The dry middle-aged man caught it, looking somewhat regretful, then turned into a black light and disappeared into the sky.
“Master, why did you give it to him?” Lin Yan’s face turned black, his expression fierce as he roared, “Without the Green Lotus Heavenly Flame, how can my cultivation progress? How can I seek revenge against Yang Chen? Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this Primordial Fire?”
Empress Yan looked disappointed and helpless. “Yan’er, after I refine the Soul Stabilizing Pill, I will give you the Earth Core Red Fire. Or, I can give you all the techniques I’ve cultivated!”
With that, Empress Yan turned into a red light and entered the ring.
Inside the ring, Empress Yan’s enchanting eyes revealed disappointment and sadness that could no longer be concealed.
She murmured to herself, “After refining the Soul Stabilizing Pill and completely leaving the ring space, I will give the Earth Core Red Fire to Yan’er, and then I will leave him! Over these years, I’ve helped him enough! But he never once thought about his master! He only wants to kill Yang Chen, but that Yang Chen has many tricks up his sleeve. Even I can’t see through him. He can control Soul Cult cultivators and produce Soul Stabilizing Pills. I don’t know if he has Body Refining Pills. Looks like I’ll have to pay him a visit again in the future!”
