Supreme Divine Book

"It's tiring to watch the night, to stand like a log all day."    

"Why is the Captain so good today?" I've never seen him so considerate before. "    

"I reckon he won the bet last night!"    

The guards muttered while shaking their heads to find a place to rest. However, they did not dare to go too far. They only rested and rearranged themselves in some of the pergolas around the alchemy lab.    

"A bunch of little bastards." The middle-aged man laughed as he shook his head.    

After all the guards had left, the middle-aged man's smile gradually faded away. His eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of coldness.    

The middle-aged man carefully looked around and then walked to the door of the alchemy lab. He quietly opened the door and sneaked in.    

The middle-aged man had just entered a second ago, and in the next moment, a silver light flashed in the dark night.    

"Whiz!" The air trembled slightly as the man closed the door. Then, the streak of light entered the alchemy room without anyone noticing.    

"Huh?" The middle-aged man paused as he looked around in surprise. In the gloomy environment, the middle-aged man shook his head and thought that he was hallucinating.    

The interior of the alchemy lab was very spacious. The floor was so clean that not a speck of dust could be seen. Every few meters, there was a Night Pearl embedded in the surrounding walls. The faint light from it seemed hazy in the dark night.    

In the central area, there was a cauldron that was three meters tall and two meters wide. The cauldron had three legs, and under the hazy light, a bronze color could be seen clearly.    

The middle-aged man looked around and roughly looked around. Then, he walked around the cauldron in the middle and headed to the inner side of the furnace room. Inside were a dozen or so shelves and counters. The counter was filled with jars and bottles of various sizes.    

The middle-aged man rubbed his palms together and gulped down a mouthful of saliva. His eyes narrowed into slits as he looked at the bottles on the counter. However, after a brief moment of hesitation, the man didn't touch those pills. He was looking for something on the other counters.    

"Hmph, I worked my ass off in Dan Hao Mansion and worked hard for you guys for more than twenty years. Only now did I become a small fry captain. I've had enough of watching you guys eat. " The middle-aged man muttered to himself as he rummaged through the counter. His face was full of complaints.    

"When this daddy here gets something valuable from you guys, I will leave The City of Innocence and go out to enjoy myself. I won't wait on you anymore. " The man began to look forward to the wonderful life in the future. He couldn't help but look forward to it.    

Ka-cha! *    

The drawer at the back of the counter opened and a beautiful sandalwood box appeared in the man's sight. It was a beautifully made box with a few emerald and rose-red gems.    

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up as he gently opened the box. Within the box was a palm-sized plant. The shape of the plant was quite unique. Its seven fan-shaped leaves formed a circle, resembling a round wheel. The slender rhizome had seven forks, and each of the seven forks was connected to a different leaf. The pattern was very rare.    

What was even more peculiar was that on the leaves of this plant, there was a layer of faint radiance lingering.    

"Wah!" Ha ha, seven leaves of the sky soul color. " The man's eyes almost popped out of his head as his face revealed a deep sense of joy. He had worked hard for the Dan Hao Mansion for twenty years, so he was very clear about the many precious herbs and medicinal pellets in the residence.    

His purpose for coming here today was to steal this Heavenly Soul Rainbow Seven Leaf, and then leave the The City of Innocence to lead a prosperous and prosperous life.    

"Hehe, with the seven leaves, I won't have to worry about anything else for the rest of my life."    

"Hehe, it's hard to guard against thieves at night."    

A faint chuckle exploded in the middle-aged man's ears like a clap of thunder. The man's expression changed drastically as he trembled. Turning around, he saw a slender young man standing behind him.    

"Ah?" "Who are you?"    

"Don't yell, if you call someone over, you'll be found out for being a thief." "I heard that your old tutor loves to throw people in the furnace and roast them." Han Chen crossed his arms in front of his chest, and looked at his opponent with an intrigued smile.    

The middle-aged man was scared out of his wits as he looked at the middle-aged man in fear. Who exactly are you? "    

"Just like you, I came to borrow something."    

Borrowing things? The middle-aged man's eyes couldn't help but twitch. She stole something just like that and said it in such a refined manner. However, even though he had been exposed by Han Chen, he did not dare reveal anything. Both of his hands were tightly holding the embroidered box containing the Seven Heavenly Soul Leaves. " What do you want? "    

Han Chen pointed to the embroidered box in his hands, "I'll take this."    

"You?"    

"Don't negotiate with me. Give me the seven leaves of the Heaven Soul Rainbow." Find yourself another treasure. We don't know each other for today's matter, and we won't meet again in the future. " Han Chen's tone did not permit the other party to even have the slightest hint of resistance, it was completely mandatory.    

The middle-aged man was so suppressed by the aura on Han Chen's body that he almost couldn't breathe. After weighing the current situation, he unwillingly handed the embroidered box over.    

Just as Han Chen was about to receive the embroidered box, light footsteps came from outside the pill refining room.    

"Where did the guards go to be lazy? "Hmph, if second brother finds out about this, you guys won't be able to take it anymore." The soft female voice carried a few hints of dissatisfaction.    

Han Chen was shocked, he realised that the voice was familiar.    

"No, it's the Third Miss." The middle-aged man was so scared that his face turned ghastly pale and his lips turned bloodless.    

Dan Hao Mansion's Third Miss? Isn't it just Shangguan Mian? Han Chen then reacted and dragged the middle-aged man, whose hands and feet had gone limp, away from the shock. His body flickered as he dodged to the back of the counter.    

Creak!    

In the next moment, the pill refining room's door was pushed open. A beautiful girl dressed in a blue evening group walked in. She had a cute baby face and a full body, she was Shangguan Mian, the teacher who imparted potion refinement techniques to the disciples of the Five Palace sect.    

"Shangguan Mian walked into the room confidently, and directly walked in front of the three-legged bronze pill furnace in the center area. Sigh! I'm so annoyed, it's all my father's fault for giving me this name, 'Shangguan Mian'. It caused me to lose sleep everyday. "    

"Forget it, I should just continue forging pills!" I haven't seen Fei Yan in class recently, she was probably kidnapped by that damned brat, Han Chen. " While complaining, Shangguan Mian sat down on a praying mat in front of the pill furnace. Her small mouth curled up into a cute smile.    

Hiding behind the counter, Han Chen was secretly shocked. It seemed that this Shangguan Mian had a huge opinion of him, and could even curse a few words at him.    

"If you don't want to die, then behave." Han Chen scolded the middle-aged man beside him in a low voice, who was trembling in fear. Then, he carefully looked out and observed Shangguan Mian's every move.    

Shangguan Mian had truly started to concoct pills, a strand of true flame formed from martial spirit energy separated out and started to rise from the bottom of the cauldron.    

"What kind of pills are they?" Shangguan Mian rolled his watery eyes, finding it difficult to choose between the two.    

After a while, the bottom of the cauldron was completely red. Shangguan Mian had not decided what pill to refine yet, and this caused him, who was hiding in the dark, to be unable to hold back from wiping his sweat.    

Shangguan Mian's beautiful eyes suddenly stopped moving, his eyes stared fixedly at a certain spot on the ground. In the gloomy environment, a shallow footprint could be seen under the radiance of the blazing light.    

Shangguan Mian's expression became cold as he cut off his martial elemental energy, and the vigorous True Fire extinguished.    

"Who dares to barge into my Dan Hao Mansion at night? Why aren't you coming out? " Shangguan Mian stood up, a speck of light at the center of his brows.    

In the blink of an eye, Shangguan Mian's entire temperament changed. His elegant long hair fluttered behind his head and the blue night sky shook and rustled.    

Han Chen was shocked, how did Shangguan Mian sense that someone had entered? The middle-aged man beside him was so scared that he nearly peed his pants, even his legs were trembling.    

"You're still not coming out, right?" Shangguan Mian coldly swept his eyes across the shelves in front of his, and when she saw the seven leaves of the Heavenly Soul Cai open, the coldness on his face grew even stronger. Hmph, you actually dared to steal from my Dan Hao Mansion, I would really like to see who it is that dares to be so fat! "    

With that, Shangguan Mian went forward and pulled the person out.    

The middle-aged man panicked and flew away. Suddenly, his mind lit up as he came to a realization. She then shoved the embroidered box containing the Seven Heavenly Soul Colorful Leaves into Han Chen's hands. Then, he immediately staggered out, fell down in front of Shangguan Mian with a thump.    

"Third Miss, Third Miss, there's a thief."    

"It's you?" Shangguan Mian frowned.    

"Not me, not me. Third Miss, I was kidnapped by someone. Someone stole the Heavenly Soul Seven Leaf. " The middle-aged man pointed at Han Chen's location in panic.    

Without waiting for Shangguan Mian to recover his wits, a stream of light instantly burst out, and like a ghost, quickly flew towards the door.    

"Hmph, if you want to leave, it won't be that easy." Shangguan Mian shouted out coldly, as his immense mental power spread out like a surging tide, instantly forming a layer of faint white light screen on the path Han Chen was on.    

Han Chen raised his hand and punched, a dense golden light flowed on his fist, like the afterglow of the sunlight. A powerful shockwave was produced in the air.    

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! Han Chen's punch shattered the light curtain into pieces, and the light curtain transformed into motes of white light that filled the sky, floating in the air, like shattered crystals.    

Shangguan Mian was a Psionic Magician, and an alchemist at that. Her control over Mental Energy had definitely reached an exceptionally skilled height.    

"Heaven Mending Mending Mesh." Shangguan Mian moved his mind, a white light flashed between his eyebrows. The white light spots that were shattered by Han Chen instantly merged together, forming a huge net that was more than ten meters wide. The huge net sealed the exit of the pill refining room, and with the force of a cage, it rushed towards Han Chen.
