Chapter 601: Yun'er, Come In and Sit~
"Hmm! The Soul Hall is no more. Now that I have revealed my overwhelming strength, the other Ancient Eight Clans dare not act rashly, and the Soul Clan is no exception. Right now, they still have to be wary of the Gu Clan and other factions joining forces. If they move against us first, they will suffer just as much, essentially handing the advantage to their rivals."
"However… they won't just let this go so easily. They will undoubtedly stir up more trouble…"
"It seems… the time has come to help all of you strengthen your powers!"
"Hmm???"
Queen Medusa blinked her enchanting eyes, a hint of confusion flashing within them.
Help us strengthen our powers?
How?
Hadn't she and the other sisters already been growing at a ridiculous pace under his guidance?
They had been consuming pills like candy, to the point where even Zi Yan had started treating them like snacks.
And now… he was saying they could improve even further?
Just as Medusa furrowed her delicate brows, about to ask for clarification, a knock came from the door.
"Sister Cai Lin! Xuan Kong Zi and the others are here again!"
The ethereal voice from outside brought a flash of delight to Wu Tian's eyes.
Wasn't this his beloved Yun'er?
She hadn't returned to Flower Sect yet?
She was still in Holy Pill City?
Did that mean… his good days were finally about to begin?!
"Tell them to stay far away. Yun'er, come in and sit for a while!"
His clear and leisurely voice stunned the people outside.
Xuan Kong Zi, Tian Lei Zi, and Xuan Yi all three of them widened their eyes.
That voice…
Was that… Wu Tian?!
He was awake?!
And what did he just say…?
"Come in and sit for a while?"
He had just woken up and was already this direct?!
This was simply too unruly!
And to make it worse, he had actually told them to stay away?
They had been worried about him for so many days, visiting again and again…
And yet, the moment he woke up, he told them to stay away?
This was outrageous!
But…
They endured it.
"Master Yun, since the Alliance Leader has awakened, we three old men shall take our leave first…"
With a forced smile, the three Pill Tower leaders clasped their hands toward the green robed woman and then turned to leave.
A gentle smile graced Yun Yun's face as she bid them farewell. Then, with a flash of blue light, her graceful figure swiftly slipped into the room.
The moment her beautiful eyes landed on Wu Tian, fully awake, a misty sheen of emotion filled them.
She had stayed behind because she was worried about him.
She had even sent Qing Lin and Hua Yu back to the Flower Sect, leaving all matters in the hands of the Grand Elder.
As the sect master, she should have been swamped with responsibilities.
But…
She hated being sect master.
She had no interest in managing Flower Sect.
So, she simply handed over her authority to the Grand Elder without a second thought.
A true strong cultivator knew how to delegate power to others.
For example…
Soul Extinguishing Life trusted his subordinates completely.
And then…
He died.
And his Soul Hall was destroyed.
But none of that mattered to Yun Yun.
All she had wanted was to stay and make sure Wu Tian was safe.
Even the two Supreme Elders of the Flower Sect supported her decision.
To them, this was the perfect way to secure a strong alliance with the Heavenly Court.
After all, none of them had any interest in Old Demon Yao, that shameless half saint.
And it wasn't just Flower Sect thinking this way.
Blazing Flame Valley and Sound Valley had similar ideas.
Blazing Flame Valley had Tang Huo'er, Wu Tian's adorable little sister, so they had nothing to worry about.
And as for Sound Valley…
Well, the Valley Master had already "sacrificed" her own daughter for the cause.
Being Wu Tian's direct disciple, no one could say a word about it.
Then, of course, there was Pill Tower.
While everyone else offered one person, Pill Tower…
Offered two.
Both Cao Ying and Dan Chen, two of the future Pill Tower Three Giants, had joined the sisterhood, ensuring the alliance was solid as an unbreakable iron fortress.
Inside the room, their conversation didn't take long.
Just half a day and one night later…
Wu Tian finally emerged from his chamber.
And immediately…
He was greeted by three completely dumbfounded, speechless men.
The same three men who had "left" earlier.
The Three Giants of Pill Tower Xuan Kong Zi, Tian Lei Zi, and Xuan Yi.
These three were the ones who knew Wu Tian best, so they were always the ones coming to discuss matters.
However…
The Great Elder of Pill Tower had vanished.
No one knew where he was.
He had probably gone into hiding.
He knew that after what had happened, he was no longer in a position to speak on equal terms with Wu Tian.
But for someone who had always been second only to the Pill Tower's Grand Elder, suddenly having to lower his status wasn't easy.
So, he simply… closed himself off.
As for the other Elders, most had either gone into seclusion or were awaiting Wu Tian's orders.
Half saints, after all, wouldn't appear unless a war was at hand.
Like Yao Chen.
After Xiao Yan was captured by the Soul Hall, and he failed to rescue him, he had gone into hiding as well.
His reputation as the Medicine Saint had taken a hit, so he simply vanished.
But the real reason?
He was hiding from Xuan Yi.
Unlike Qing Hua Fairy and the Sound Valley Master who wanted nothing to do with him anymore
Xuan Yi still loved him.
And that was the real problem.
Because if he faced her, he would have to face…
The entire Pill Tower.
So, despite being a half saint, he chose to run.
Back to the present.
Seeing Wu Tian "step out of seclusion", the three men forced a smile.
"Alliance Leader, you're finally out!"
Wu Tian looked at them indifferently.
"You three have been waiting outside this whole time? Is there some urgent matter?"
The Three Giants exchanged glances.
Xuan Kong Zi hesitated before speaking.
"Alliance Leader, there is indeed an urgent matter, but…"
Wu Tian frowned slightly.
"What? Are you actually afraid to tell me?"
For these three powerful figures to be acting so uneasy…
That was rare.
It didn't seem like some powerful enemy had invaded.
Then what was it?
Xuan Kong Zi and Tian Lei Zi exchanged another look
Then both turned their eyes to Xuan Yi.
She had expected this.
As a woman, she was the best choice to explain.
Especially for this particular issue.
"Alliance Leader… you've been unconscious for over half a month."
"During this time, your beloved wives have remained in Holy Pill City."
"And among them… is someone particularly fond of eating heavenly treasures."
Wu Tian froze.
"…Zi Yan? Did she… go on another eating spree?"
The three grimly nodded in unison.
Xuan Kong Zi's old face twisted in pain.
Wu Tian sighed.
There was nothing he could do about Zi Yan's appetite…
Cai Lin had clearly let her run wild again.
If she kept raising her like this…
If their future child was also a daughter…
Wouldn't she turn the entire world upside down?!
No.
Zi Yan's condition needed to be fixed.
It was time.
"Sigh… I wonder if the Ancient Void Dragon's Little Sky Ruler still exists."
"Hmm?"
