Chapter 1825 - Wuheng Di's identity

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Running to Qingfeng Li, Wuheng Di was extremely excited. He handed a Soul Gathering Elixir pill to Qingfeng Li.

"Master, have a look at it! Since I have made the Soul Gathering Elixir in three days, you must take me as your disciple as you promised."

Wuheng Di looked at Qingfeng Li while his whole body shook with excitement.

Qingfeng Li was speechless. He had not been serious when he said that he would take Wuheng Di as his disciple if he could make the spirit monarch realm Soul Gathering Elixir in three days, as he did not expect he would succeed. It seemed that Wuheng Di had extremely high talent in alchemy arts.

Reaching out his hand, Qingfeng Li took the Soul Gathering Elixir from Wuheng Di and found it was indeed the second level spirit monarch realm elixir. It seemed Wuheng Di had mastered the alchemy arts he had given to him.

Looking at Wuheng Di before him, Qingfeng Li was at a loss as to what to do with him.

As the famous spirit monarch alchemist on the Crimson Fire Continent, Wuheng Di was more than 1,000 years old and Qingfeng Li was just in his twenties; he felt too embarrassed to take Wuheng Di as his disciple.

Seeing Qingfeng Li's expression, Wuheng Di said, "Teacher, you can't go back on your word. The Chief Commander was the witness when you made the promise."

He glanced toward the Chief Commander, wanting him to be his witness.

The Chief Commander looked embarrassed. The City Lord, vice City Lord, and more than 1,000 self-cultivators in the hall had surrounded Qingfeng Li and a battle was about to break out any moment.

But now, they were startled when Wuheng Di ran in and insisted on being Qingfeng Li's disciple.

Many of the 1,000 plus self-cultivators had bought elixirs from Wuheng Di and thus knew his power as the No.1 spirit monarch realm alchemist in the Sun Mystic Realm.

But now, he was actually asking their enemy to become his master.

The Chief Commander only smiled embarrassedly and remained silent since he didn't know what to say. If he spoke for Qingfeng Li, he was sure he wouldn't survive tonight.

Although he worked for the City Lord, the Chief Commander didn't like what the City Lord did. Besides, he had been forced to join the dynasty.

So, the Chief Commander remained neutral, not wanting to offend either party.

Seeing the Chief Commander's embarrassed expression and silence, Wuheng Di glanced around at the surrounding self-cultivators and saw their hostility toward Qingfeng Li.

Although he was an alchemist and dealt with spirit herbs and elixirs all year round, Wuheng Di was not ignorant about the world.

After all, he had lived more than 1,000 years and at one glance, he had seen the surrounding people's intention to attack Qingfeng Li.

Walking to stand before Qingfeng Li, he declared in a loud voice, "He is my master. Whoever dares to attack him is my enemy and will never get anymore elixirs from me."

Hearing Wuheng Di's words, the expressions of the surrounding self-cultivators all changed since elixirs were the most difficult to acquire compared to vitality stones, cultivation techniques, and spiritual treasures.

Spirit monarch realm elixirs were especially difficult to make and acquire. They needed a spirit monarch realm alchemist in order to get elixir recipes, fire, spirit herbs, soul power, and many other things.

Some self-cultivators already put down their weapons and decided not to attack Qingfeng Li, since they didn't want to offend a spirit monarch realm alchemist.

Besides, they had intended to attack Qingfeng Li only to show their respect for the City Lord. Although the City Lord could give them protection, he couldn't help them increase power.

Meng Lin's expression changed slightly, too. He knew Wuheng Di, the spirit monarch realm alchemist in Emerald Lake City and had even once asked to see him. But the alchemist declined his request.

He was surprised that Wuheng Di would have come to the City Lord mansion to ask Qingfneg Li to be his master. He wondered about Qingfeng Li's power, which could get even a spirit monarch realm master to beg to be his disciple.

Wuheng Di turned to look at Meng Lin, saying, "City Lord, I hope you will do me a favor and let my master Qingfeng Li go today."

With a frown, Meng Lin thought for a moment before saying, "Wuheng Di, you refused me last time when I asked you for a second level spirit monarch realm elixir pill. I will let Qingfeng Li go if you give me the pill."

Without hesitation, Wuheng Di took out a second level spirit monarch realm elixir pill from his interspatial ring and threw it to Meng Lin, saying, "Here you are. Now you must let my master Qingfeng Li go."

Wuheng Di was sincere towards and highly valued his master Qingfeng Li and he would even pay a second level spirit monarch realm elixir pill for him.

He had made two second level spirit monarch realm elixir pills in the past three days, which were the Soul Gathering Elixirs. They had taken all of his monarch-level spirit herbs and each of the pills was worth at least hundreds of thousands of monarch realm vitality stones. More importantly, they were not for sale. But Wuheng Di had given it away without hesitation for Qingfeng Li.

With a wave of his hand, Meng Lin said, "You can go now."

Beside him, the vice City Lord's expression changed, as he was wondering about the turn of events since he knew the City Lord had meant to keep Qingfeng Li here and even to kill him.

Meng Lin didn't explain his act to the vice City Lord, but just waved for Qingfeng Li and his people to leave.

Casting a faint glance at the City Lord, Qingfeng Li didn't speak. He left the City Lord mansion with Wuheng Di, the Sky Wolf Emperor, Mengyao Xu, and Ya Yun.

Looking at Qingfeng Li's back when he departed, the vice City Lord couldn't contain his question any more and asked Meng Lin, "Your Highness, why did you let Qingfeng Li and his people leave? We could kill him and take his ultimate treasures, such as the saint-grade Golden Flames and the Sky-Breaking Halberd which is a spiritual treasure even I can't understand."

Meng Lin shook his head and said, "You don't have to say more about it. If it had been only Qingfeng Li, I would have killed him. But Wuheng Di is different since he is not only a spirit monarch realm alchemist. He has another identity."

Shaking his head, the vice City Lord asked, "What other identity does Wuheng Di have? How come I don't know about it?"

With a slight smile, Meng Lin said, "Wuheng Di once saved an emperor of a high tier dynasty. If we killed him, the high tier dynasty would destroy all of us because the Meteorite Dynasty, a powerful intermediate dynasty, is much inferior to a high tier one."
