The Reborn Pill Emperor

Hong Third Elder Brother's desperate fighting style seemed to have aroused the beast nature of the Flame Lion. Not only did it not dodge the incoming sword qi, it even let out a loud roar. A force that was hard to see with the naked eye shot out from his mouth and collided with Hong Third Elder Brother's sword qi.    

    

With a loud explosion, countless airwaves shot out in all directions. Hong Third Elder Brother, who was not far away, was instantly swept up by the airwaves. However, his eyes were filled with the joy of victory.    

    

Crack... Countless trees were hit by the Qi waves at the same time. They broke at the waist. Coincidentally, the tree where Ye Bufan was hiding was also one of them.    

    

"Ah..." Ye Bufan's panicked shout came from the tree trunk, as if someone had suddenly knocked him down.    

    

Hong Third Elder Brother looked at Ye Bufan who had fallen from the tree and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, brother. I don't have the strength anymore..."    

    

The tree Ye Bufan was hiding in happened to fall towards where the Flame Lion was. The Flame Lion seemed to be stunned and stood there motionless.    

    

Looking at such a strange scene, a trace of surprise flashed across Hong Third Elder Brother's eyes. Could it be that the Flame Lion just now also made him exhausted?    

    

Just like that, a strange scene appeared. The tree that Ye Bufan was hiding in actually smashed into the Flame Lion's body just like that. At the same time, Ye Bufan was also thrown high up from the tree branch by the backlash. He landed heavily on the ground.    

    

He forced himself to stand up and heavily coughed a few times, his chest constantly rising and falling.    

    

The Flame Lion, which had been struck by the tree trunk, was now lying horizontally on the ground. A large amount of blood flowed out from the corner of its mouth. There were even some tiny fragments mixed within. It was likely that its internal organs had been shattered.    

    

Hong Third Elder Brother landed on the ground and supported his heavy sword to stand up. After staggering a few times, he barely managed to stabilize his body. Looking at the scene in front of him, it was as if he was dreaming.    

    

The Flame Lion was actually smashed to death by the fallen tree? If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he probably wouldn't have believed it even if his father told him. However, such a real thing happened right in front of his eyes. He couldn't help but cast his suspicious gaze at Ye Bufan.    

    

With just a glance, he found out that Ye Bufan was only at the fifth level of the Qi Stage. With that, he dispelled his doubts about Ye Bufan. Could it be that he really didn't dare to kill Ye Bufan? The Heavenly Immortal Sect? Hong Third Elder Brother was a little excited at this moment.    

    

Of course, I believe everyone has already guessed that this scene must be Ye Bufan's intention. From the moment Hong Third Elder Brother risked his life to buy time for his younger brother and sister to escape, Ye Bufan decided to save his life. Although Ye Bufan had always felt that he was not a good person, this did not stop him from admiring a good person.    

    

The reason why he concealed his cultivation was because people were sinister. It was better to be more careful when he did not fully understand the other party, so everything was arranged by Ye Bufan to look a little funny. At the very least, Hong Third Elder Brother would not suspect him.    

    

As for his cultivation base, it was even simpler. It was beneficial for his Golden Core to control his spiritual energy, then he would circulate the Heavenly Curtain Spell that Yunqing had taught him back then. Wouldn't it be like playing a game to deceive an Eighth Rank of Qi Stage brat?    

    

Sure enough, after seeing Ye Bufan's cultivation base, Hong Third Elder Brother dispelled the doubt in his heart. He turned his burning gaze towards the Flame Lion. The reason why the five brothers of Hong family risked their lives to enter the Flowing Wave Mountain Range was because of the Flame Lion. Now, with a lucky encounter, misfortune had turned into good fortune, and the Flame Lion had really been killed. Even the calm Hong Third Elder Brother could not hide the excitement in his heart.    

    

After a while, Hong Third Elder Brother turned his eyes back to Ye Bufan and said, "This... this is a gift from the heavens. Anyone who sees it will get a share. How about we split it?"    

    

Acting required a full set. Ye Bufan, who could even deceive Ghost King, naturally had nothing to do with it. His eyes immediately revealed some excitement, "Alright, tell me how to divide it!"    

    

Hong Third Elder Brother thought for a moment, then said with some difficulty, "I only want the Flame Lion's heart, the rest will belong to you!"    

    

After saying that, Hong Third Elder Brother also seemed to be a little embarrassed. After all, those who had some common sense would know. The Flame Lion's entire body, apart from the quality of the flesh, had a great value in its heart. It was a necessary item to refine the Fire Returning Heart Pill.    

    

The Fire Returning Heart Pill was only effective for fire-type cultivators. If fire-type cultivators failed in their advancement process and suffered a backlash, their meridians would be damaged and their cultivation would regress. They would only need to consume a Fire Returning Pill within a year. Not only could his damaged meridians be restored to their original state, but he would also have a certain chance to find another opportunity to break through according to the quality of the pill. If he was really lucky enough to encounter a chance to break through, then the success rate would be shockingly high.    

    

Therefore, although the Flame Lion could barely be considered a Tier 9 wild beast, the heart of the Flame Lion was priceless. One must not be able to see it even if one was carrying a precious daughter. Hence, Hong Third Elder Brother felt a burning sensation on his face after he finished speaking.    

    

Before Ye Bufan could say anything, Hong Third Elder Brother continued, "I know that you will be at a disadvantage if we divide it like this. After we leave the Flowing Wave Mountain Range... Hong family will give you a certain amount of compensation, whether it is medicinal herbs, cultivation techniques, or gold coins. What do you think? "    

    

Hong Third Elder Brother's performance had greatly improved Ye Bufan's impression of him. Although it seemed like he really wanted to obtain the Flame Lion's heart, however, he did not have the intention to kill because of his low cultivation. It was rare for him to be able to do this in the wilderness. Especially Ye Bufan, who had lived in the previous world, he clearly knew that in that world... Killing and seizing treasures were nothing new.    

    

"Since that's the case, I'll listen to your arrangements!" Since it was on the way, Ye Bufan planned to send Hong Third Elder Brother out of Flowing Wave Mountain Range safely. After all, with his strength, it would take a lot of luck for him to escape unscathed.    

    

After seeing Ye Bufan agree, Hong Third Elder Brother did not hold back anymore. He dragged the heavy sword and walked towards the Flame Lion's corpse.    

    

After looking at the internal organs that the Flame Lion spat out, Hong Third Elder Brother couldn't help but turn around and look at Ye Bufan. Can a tree trunk smash the Flame Lion to such an extent? But at this moment, he didn't have much time to think about this problem. Instead, he prayed silently in his heart. The Flame Lion must maintain a complete heart. Otherwise, the bloody battle this time would be meaningless.    

    

Hong Third Elder Brother was obviously not a new hand. He picked up the heavy sword and cut on the Flame Lion's body. A trembling heart appeared in front of him. He immediately took out a jade box from his pocket and placed the Flame Lion's heart into it. Then, he carefully put it away, as if this was his most precious item.    

    

After obtaining the Flame Lion's heart, Hong Third Elder Brother seemed to have become much more relaxed. "This Flame Lion meat is a great delicacy. I remember that I bought a piece a few years ago. That taste is still hard to forget. Let's not waste it!"    

    

Regarding the taste of the Flame Lion's meat, Ye Bufan had heard Ao Changkong mention it several times. In his heart, he was somewhat looking forward to it, especially Ye Bufan, who had tasted countless Spirit Beast recently. He wanted to compare it.    

    

After cutting off a piece of his thigh and throwing it at Ye Bufan, Hong Third Elder Brother also picked up a piece himself and walked over. He said, "Go and find my younger brother and sister!"    

    

"My name is Hong Feng, and you?" In the midst of his hasty journey, Hong Feng opened his mouth and asked.    

    

"My name is Ye... Ye Bufan!" Initially, he wanted to say his name in his previous life, but when the words came to his mouth, Ye Bufan realized that he seemed to be more used to this name. Everything in his previous life would remain in his memory.    

    

" Why did you appear on the big tree just now? We never found you! " Hong Feng was still curious about Ye Bufan's sudden appearance.    

    

Ye Bufan immediately said without thinking, "I was a little tired, so I jumped onto the tree and slept. Later, I was woken up by your fighting sounds, but I didn't dare to come down!" After saying that, Ye Bufan deliberately put on an embarrassed look.    

    

Hong Feng didn't seem to be a very careful person. He didn't have much doubt about Ye Bufan's words. Just like that, he came all the way here and chatted with Ye Bufan without saying a word.    

    

During the conversation, Ye Bufan also learned that Hong Feng was the second son of the Hong family's patriarch in Starmoon City. The people who accompanied him were his cousin and cousin.    

    

Hong family could be considered a major power in Starmoon City. It was a pity that half a year ago, Hong Feng's grandfather, Hong Qigong, was a Fourth Rank of Spirit Stage Venerable who guarded the Hong family, and he had advanced to the Fifth Rank of Spirit Stage half a year ago. He had suffered a backlash from his failure and had been bedridden for more than half a year. If he couldn't concoct the Fire Returning Heart Pill and consume it within half a year... He would never have the chance to cultivate again in his lifetime.    

    

More importantly, the Hong family, which had lost the protection of Duke Hong Qi, had become a fat piece of meat in the eyes of the other major powers. Although the Hong family was suppressing the news of Duke Hong Qi's backlash, the other major powers weren't easy to deal with either. Ever since they found out about the Hong family's situation two months ago, they had joined forces to deal with the Hong family...    

    

Thus, the scene of these five brothers risking their lives to enter the outer perimeter of Flowing Wave Mountain Range to search for the Flame Lion appeared.    

    

Ye Bufan, who had crossed the entire Flowing Wave Mountain Range, naturally had a lot of right to speak about this matter. With the strength of these five brothers, it was not easy to reach this position! At least Ye Bufan remembered that he had not walked so far into the Flowing Wave Mountain Range when he first met a few beasts of the ninth step. If these five brothers had the same fate... He was afraid that he would not have the chance to know them.    

    

Ye Bufan was only using the speed of a fifth level Qi Stage, and Hong Feng seemed to be taking care of Ye Bufan's cultivation base, so his speed wasn't fast either. He ran like this for an hour before stopping.    

    

As soon as his feet stopped, Hong Feng's four sister-in-law jumped down from the treetops in different directions. In the face of this sudden change, Ye Bufan acted as if he was facing an enemy. When he saw who it was, he relaxed his guard.    

    

"Third Elder Brother! Are you alright?"    

    

"Third Elder Brother, the one on your shoulder is..."    

    

... ""    

    

Looking at the retreating Hong Feng, the four sister-in-law were filled with joy. One of them had an excited expression on his face, but he only cast a glance at Ye Bufan. Immediately, he turned his gaze back to Hong Feng. Obviously, Ye Bufan, a fifth level Qi Stage disciple, wasn't able to attract everyone's attention at this moment.    

    

Regarding the indifference of the four of them, not only did Ye Bufan not feel unhappy, he was actually very happy!    

    

There was no other reason except for the fact that Shi Hong Feng's cousin had yet to change into her tattered clothes. The bursts of spring light made Ye Bufan feel as if he had returned to the 21st century. This kind of person was naturally the best when no one was paying attention!    

    

After a period of comforting, Hong Feng took out the jade box from his bosom and carefully opened the lid. A wave of high temperature instantly spread out.    

    

"This is the heart of the Flame Lion?" The young girl was shocked to the point she raised her hand to cover her lips. Now, her actions caused the ditch to become even deeper.    

    

Ye Bufan cast a sidelong glance at her. Only when he felt that Hong Feng's gaze was about to turn towards him did he reluctantly withdraw his gaze.    

    

"This time, I have to say that I still like this Brother Ye Bufan. If it wasn't for him... I reckon that not only will I not be able to obtain the Flame Lion's heart, I will also be buried under the sharp claws of the Flame Lion!" After the excitement of meeting again between the brothers gradually calmed down, Hong Feng began to introduce Ye Bufan to everyone.    

    

Him?    

    

At this time, everyone's attention was focused on Ye Bufan. But no matter how they looked at it, he was only a fifth level Qi Stage. How could he help Third Elder Brother eliminate the Flame Lion?    

    

Hong Feng's younger brother and younger sister were obviously well-educated. Although they had great doubts about Ye Bufan's cultivation base, no one pointed it out in front of them. Instead, they expressed their gratitude to Ye Bufan.    

    

"Third Elder Brother, can you tell me about the process of your battle? We can learn from it!" One of the young men asked with a smile on his face.    

    

Hong Feng looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Everyone has used up too much energy today. Let's find a place to sit down and talk in detail!"
