In the days after sending off Hu Gan, Xiao Xue had been busy with Alchemy.
Her Alchemy this time was mainly to boost the strength of the Xiao Family.
Xiao Xue wanted to raise her cheap dad, Xiao Zhan, and the three Grand Elders all to the Dou Ling level, and let her Eldest Brother and Second Brother reach the Great Dou Master level as soon as possible.
As for Xiao Yan... he was only a Two-Star Dou Practitioner right now, so it was still a bit early for him to take pills.
Moreover, whatever Medicinal Pill Xiao Yan needed, Yao Lao would take care of it for him, and it would definitely be the most suitable one, so there was no need for her to worry.
Over these past few days, Hai Bodong had been running around everywhere, collecting medicinal ingredients for the spirit revival purple pill.
However, the ingredients for the spirit revival purple pill were not that easy to find.
Even though the Mittel Auction House was the largest auction house in the Jia Ma Empire, the ingredients could not be gathered right away.
Therefore, after resolving the matters at hand and having a fight with Jia Xingtian, Hai Bodong finally settled down.
At the same time, Hai Bodong also put out the word to have the Mittel Family strengthen their cooperation with the Xiao Family.
The Mittel Family had already been thinking about befriending the Xiao Family, and now they had Hai Bodong's instruction.
Coupled with the fact that the Xiao Family's Young Clan Leader, Xiao Xue, had a deep friendship with the chief auctioneer of the Mittel Auction House, Ya Fei, Miteer Tengshan agreed immediately.
Xiao Xue was very satisfied with the sensible behavior of Hai Bodong and Miteer Tengshan.
Hmm, besides the dishwater, when there was soup later, she could leave a mouthful for them too.
After the Medicinal Pills needed by the Xiao Family were mostly refined, Xiao Xue planned to leave the Xiao Residence and head to the desert for the third time.
This time, her goal was simple: swallow the Bone Chilling Flame and let the Water Transformation Art evolve to the Earth Rank.
By that time, her Alchemy would naturally reach the Sixth Grade.
At that time, as long as she was given enough medicinal ingredients and a certain amount of time to practice, even the so-called Pill King Gu He would not be worth looking at in front of her.
As for why she had to go to the desert, firstly, it was because it was sparsely populated, and secondly, there was a Peak Sixth Grade Demonic Beast there:
— — Queen Medusa.
Medusa had been trapped at the Peak Dou Huang for many years without any progress, and the current situation of the Snake-People Clan was not very optimistic.
Do not be fooled by Queen Medusa's notorious reputation, and the fact that she was a Peak Sixth Grade Demonic Beast, posing a huge threat to the Jia Ma Empire.
Every year, wars would break out between the Snake-People Clan and the Jia Ma Empire, and the Jia Ma Empire usually lost more than it won.
However, if Pill King Gu He were to help the Jia Ma Empire with all his might, the entire Snake-People Empire would likely be unable to resist.
However, Pill King Gu He did not take orders from the Jia Ma Empire's royal family, and even the King had to be respectful when facing Gu He.
A High-level Sixth Grade Alchemist could rival the king of a Demonic Beast Empire; that was how terrifying an Alchemist's existence was.
Provoking an Alchemist was no different from poking a hornet's nest.
Although the several Grand Elders of the Snake-People Clan were all Sixth Grade, at the Dou Huang level, they were already old snakes.
These Elders would not live much longer, and once they made a move, they would expose the strength of the Snake-People Clan.
By then, the Snake-People Clan, possessing several Dou Huang combatants, would likely be besieged and slaughtered by the major Empires.
Therefore, the current visible power of the Snake-People Clan was Queen Medusa, a Peak Dou Huang, and eight Dou Wang leaders.
The reason the major Empires had not attacked the Snake-People Clan was, firstly, out of fear of Queen Medusa's strength, and secondly, because the territory of the Snake-People Clan was truly...
Calling it a desolate wasteland was a compliment to its environment.
A place like the desert could not have any good conditions.
Even if the several Dou Huang Elders did not show themselves, the Snake-People Clan still had eight Dou Wang leaders, plus a Peak Dou Huang, Medusa.
This kind of high-end combat power of the Snake-People Clan was more than enough to compare with the Jia Ma Empire, yet the Snake-People could only cower in the desert.
