The next morning.

Yuan Chang County prefecture capital, inner city, Qianchuan District.

He Xuan’s residence.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl in red led by the gatekeeper entered the backyard of the mansion and came to the study.

“Master, the Xue family’s envoy has arrived.”

“Come in.” He Xuan’s calm voice came from the study.

He was writing furiously in front of the table. When he saw that it was a girl in red, he immediately stood up. “So it’s Miss Hong Yu. Please take a seat.”

‘Elder He, my second sister asked me to pass you a message.” Xue Hongyu cupped her hands.

“Please speak,” He Xuan said.

“Jin Wuxin went to the Furious Flood Dragon Island yesterday, and Qi Xuanming chased after him. After that, Jin Wuxin returned with serious injuries. He’s now hiding in Fanlin Town two hundred miles west of the city,”

Xue Hongyu said meaningfully.

“There’s actually such a thing?!” He Xuan was shocked.

Jin Wuxin was the Grand Priest of the Nine Nether Mansion, a top expert with seven veins at the Bind-level. To be able to become the Grand Priest of the Nine Nether Mansion, a large faction that was almost all demons, he must be an expert among demons. How could he be severely injured by Qi Xuanming, a Four Qi Grandmaster?

It seemed that the direct descendants of the Five Great Surnames were still stronger.

“My second sister said that there’s an opportunity in front of Elder He now. It depends on whether you can grasp it,” Xue Hongyu continued.

He Xuan’s pupils constricted, but he quickly reacted. “Xue Han means… to let me deal with Jin Wuxin together?!”

“That’s right! Elder He is indeed a smart person.” Xue Hongyu smiled. “As long as you have the Demon Crystal of a seven-veined demon, the probability of finding the divine weapon fragment will increase greatly. Moreover, it can immediately increase the power of the divine weapon fragment.”

“This…” He Xuan hesitated and fell into deep thought.

Xue Hongyu was not impatient at all. She waited quietly.

“There’s only one Demon Crystal. This thing isn’t that useful to me. Instead, it’s a treasure to increase your bloodline,” He Xuan pondered and said.

“With Xue Han’s strength, she should be able to deal with the seriously injured Jin Wuxin alone, right?”

“Jin Wuxin’s main body is a rare baby carp. He has extremely strong illusion talent and is highly valued by the Nine Nether Mansion Lord. No one knows if he has anything to save his life. That’s why my second sister chose to invite you to attack together,” Xue Hongyu told the truth.

“What benefits can I obtain? Just a divine weapon that I haven’t obtained is not enough for me to take such a huge risk.” He Xuan wanted to bargain.

“Elder He, do you know about the Nine Bend Spirit Peach?” Xue Hongyu changed the topic.

“What?! Could it be that Xue Han has the Nine Bend Spirit Peach?!” He Xuan lost his composure and his expression changed drastically.

This Nine Bend Spirit Peach bloomed in 60 years, bore fruit in 60 years, and matured in 60 years. It needed to experience 30 years to obtain the fruit. After consuming it, one’s blood qi could increase greatly and extend one’s lifespan by 20 years!

This was 20 years at the peak of blood qi!

Not to mention a Five Qi Grandmaster like He Xuan whose blood qi was declining, even the Fiend Condensation Martial Saint was extremely attractive.

Some martial artists who cultivated divine techniques were not inferior to the disciples of top aristocratic families and demons of the same level. The greatest difference was their lifespan.

The lifespan limit of a Five Qi Grandmaster was 160 years. After exceeding 80 years, their blood qi would rapidly decline.

The descendants of aristocratic families of the same level could live at least 20 to 30 years longer than martial artists.

As for demons, according to the difference in race, it was even possible for them to live a hundred or two hundred years longer than martial artists.

As his realm increased, after reaching the Martial Saint Realm, the difference in lifespan would further increase.

Only when a martial artist reached the legendary Divine Power Realm would they welcome an all-round qualitative change.

Therefore, not to mention an additional 20 years of lifespan, even 10 years was enough to drive people crazy.

“Of course, my second sister didn’t. Otherwise, she would have taken it herself long ago.”

Xue Hongyu shook her head.

“You!” The hope that had just risen in He Xuan’s heart was extinguished, and he was instantly furious.

“Elder He, calm down and listen to me. Although my second sister doesn’t have the Nine Bend Spirit Peach, she has a peach core,” Xue Hongyu explained.

“Peach core…” He Xuan’s expression changed.

“If Elder He obtains the peach core and finds a high-grade alchemist to refine a Longevity Prolonging Pill, it can increase his lifespan by at least seven to eight years. The effect will be the same,” Xue Hongyu added.

“Longevity Prolonging Pill!” He Xuan raised his eyebrows.

The disciples of aristocratic families had special physiques. Pills like the Longevity Prolonging Pill were basically useless to them. Otherwise, the peach pit would not have been his.

However, a peach core could only be refined three times at most.

For a rare high-grade pill like the Longevity Prolonging Pill, even a high-grade alchemist might not be able to guarantee success in one furnace.

After all, the success rate of refining a proficient medicinal pill was quite different from a medicinal pill that had never been refined once.

“As long as Elder He agrees to cooperate, I can give you the formula for the Longevity Prolonging Pill in advance. What do you think? With every little delay, Jin Wuxin will recover more strength. Opportunities don’t wait for people!” Xue Hongyu smiled.

“Alright! I agree!” He Xuan gritted his teeth and finally chose to cooperate. This was his only chance to break through to the Fiend Condensation Realm. Once he succeeded, he could jump to become a top expert in the entire Cloud Prefecture.

The key was the increase in lifespan, 60 years!

He really could not resist such a huge temptation.

“Elder He is indeed a smart person.” Xue Hongyu took out a sheepskin scroll

and handed it to He Xuan.

He Xuan took the sheepskin scroll with both hands and carefully opened it as if he were holding a rare treasure.

“Elder He, the time to make a move is this evening. It’s at sunset. We won’t wait for you if it’s late..”
