Cultivator With Modern AI

Vermilion Imperial Sect

A man wearing a crimson robe with a Vermilion bird pattern on the back was sitting leisurely at his chair while reading a scroll, as he enjoyed a cup of herbal tea. Suddenly, he was surprised by the arrival of a woman with waist-length black hair, moreover she seemed to be in a hurry. He then asked the woman. "Why are you in such a hurry, Elder Meng Yao?"

"I have come with bad news, Sect Master Ding Yuan." Meng Yao replied, then she placed a broken jade on his tabble. "This is Alchemist Master Hong's life jade, Sect Master. It-"

*BAMM*

"What!?" Ding Yuan exclaimed in shock, as he abruptly rose from his seat, and his chair was thrown backwards. Then he took the broken jade, and asked in disbelief. "What did you just say, Elder Meng? Is this really Master Hong Li's life jade?"

Meng Yao nodded to him, then explained. "I heard that Master Hong Li went to the Shui Kingdom to attend the auction at the Hua Auction House, but earlier I found his jade already broken like this. I've contacted Xiangyue, but she said that she doesn't know anything about his death,

because she didn't see meet him again after the auction ended."

"Has no one seen Master Hong Li fight someone?" Ding Yuan asked with a grim expression.

"I don't know, Sect Master." Meng Yao shook her head, and sighed softly. "But I've asked our people who are in Shui Kingdom to investigate this matter, maybe they will get the results soon. What are we going to do now, Sect Master? Should we inform the palace about this?"

Ding Yuan squeezed the broken jade, as he sighed heavily, then he sent a sound transmission to someone. "I've already reported this to General Hong, and I asked him to report this matter to Emperor Hong, so we can only wait for their decision."

"Alright then." Meng Yao nodded in agreement, she then left Ding Yuan's room.

"What exactly happened? How did Master Hong die? His cultivation is at 7th Stage Heaven Origin Realm, and not many people can fight against him." Ding Yuan muttered to himself, and his expression was really ugly, because Hong Li was the best alchemist in the southern continent, but now he is dead.

Vemilion Imperial Palace.

"Why did you suddenly come here, Brother?" Hong Chen asked with a raised eyebrow, his wife also turned to Hong Li curiously, because it's unusual for her to come to see her husband so suddenly. (A/N: Same name but different people)

Hong Li sighed heavily, then he said. "I have two news for you, Big Brother. And one of them is very serious for us."

"Elaborate to me." Hong Chen said.

,m "Sect Master Ding Yuan just told me that Alchemist Master Hong is dead, and-"

"What!?" Hong Chen and his wife shouted at the same time, as they looked at Hong Li in shock, then Hong Chen asked. "When did that happen? How did he die? Where did he die? And who was the killer?"

"We still don't know anything about his death, Big Brother. But Ding Yuan and Meng Yao have already ordered people to investigate this matter, and I have also ordered our people to help them." Hong Li explained, as he shook his head.

"You should investigate this matter seriously, Brother. Losing Alchemist Master Hong is a huge loss for this southern continent, as he is the best alchemist we have." Hong Li nodded in understanding, Hong Chen then asked again. "Then what's the second news, Brother?"

Hong Li immediately answered his big brother's question. "Our spies in the Shui Kingdom reported that Zhu Yuhe had visited Shui Lihao, and she came with a young man, but they did not recognize the identity of the young man."

"Hmm?" Hong Chen's expression turned ugly as soon as he heard that, and his face darkened, as he fell silent for some time. Before long, he said in a heavy tone. "Prepare our soldiers immediately, Brother. Since Zhu Yuhe blatantly challenged me, then I will teach her a heavy lesson by destroying his Zhu Kingdom!"

"Yes." Hong Li then left Hong Chen and his wife.

"Are you really going to destroy the Zhu Kingdom, Husband?" Hong Chen's wife finally spoke up.

Hong Chen snorted, then replied. "I've run out of patience with that damn Zhu Yuhe, Yan Zi. So I'll make her feel so devastated by destroying her kingdom, after that I'll force her to become my concubine, but if she still doesn't agree, then I'll kill her straight away."

Yan Zi could only sigh in her heart, actually she felt pain in her heart. Even though they had been married for a very long time, she was even his Empress, and she had also given him two children. But in fact, Hong Chen had never loved her, and he was actually infatuated with Zhu Yuhe. But alas, she did not have the power to go against her husband, otherwise her Yan Family would be destroyed because of her actions. 'I hope that Zhu Yuhe dies in the war later, that way my husband won't think about other women anymore, and I can live a happier life.'

Xia Manor - Alchemy Room

Liu Ying sat cross-legged in front of the Shennong Furnace, as she listened carefully to her son's explanation for making the Golden Yin Pill, as she felt unsure of being able to concoct the pill.

After he finished explaining everything, Xia Tian immediately took out the other ingredients to make the pill first, and they prepared the ingredients together. After everything was done, Xia Tian then took out the Purple Spirit Grass, and he processed it himself, because he knew that Liu Ying still didn't know how to process it properly, as he explained to her.

After Xia Tian finished processing the Purple Spirit Grass, he asked Liu Ying to start concocting the pill, and he guided her step by step. Fortunately, he had the Shennong Furnace, coupled with Liu Ying's alchemy ability, he was confident that she could concoct Superior Grade Golden Yin Pill.

While they were focusing on concocting pill, they still didn't realize that Hong Chen had already started preparing his armies, and they were about to move towards the Zhu Kingdom.
