Chapter 23 - Moving forward......

Emperor's breaking pill ' is a unique pill , that almost touches the boundary line of tier 6 pill , and it has the capability to increase someone's chances of breaking into the Dou Emperor realm by almost 60 to 70% .

After saying this , Xiao Yan closed his eyes and said . " That's all I can give to you . I won't be able to give you any more then this . This is my limit .

If you don't want to help , then I think , I will find someone else worthy of the reward , who knows something about the heavenly flame . Not someone who is only pretending and doesn't know a thing about the flame . "

After saying that , the moment he opened his eyes , he was completely taken aback . And almost shouted " What.....!!!.. already.... "

Because next to him , the snake worm has obediently bowed his head and was looking at him with stars in his eyes .

He slowly hissed with approval and was asking to Xiao Yan . ' Now you have talked something interesting . If you have said so , then I won't have to get tortured so much .

Well whatever done is done , now there is no going back . Let's make a deal .

You give those two pills and in return i will take you to the original flame . '

He continued his hissing sound , trying to talk to Xiao Yan . Even though , Xiao Yan couldn't understand a thing , he could only vaguely guess with his expression and tone of hissing.

After a while , he understood something and said " First you take me to the flame and if I can get my hands on the flame . Then only I will give you the pill . "

Hearing this , the snake again hissed sharply with some resentment . It was as if , he was afraid of Xiao Yan breaking the promise , one's he gets the flame .

Hearing this , Xiao Yan shook his hand , rubbed his ring and took out a tier 4 high grade healing pill and gave it to him and said . " I am not telling lies , I will keep my promise after I get the flame , but now if you will not cooperate then..... "

Just after his words fell , the temperature around him decreased by several degrees and in an instant a frosty icy layer spread beneath his leg . Air became cold and a very chilling white colour flame appeared in Xiao Yan's hand .

The he again opened his mouth and completed his statement with a sharp glint in his eyes ".....then I can only turn you to ashes right here . "

When the snake warm saw the flame , his body tensed and first time in his life , he felt his inner instincts screaming so loudly . The danger alarm in his mind rang with all his might . 

A cold sweat appeared on his red body , his eyes showed some hesitation and after struggling for a while , the snake shook his head and hissed with approval .

" Hisss...."

Hearing and seeing his behaviour , Xiao Yan chuckled and said with a sneaky smile " You sure do know , when to give up huh ??

Very good for you , Beasts like you often lives longer .

Ok , now don't waste any more time , take me to it . "

After the beast and Xiao Yan came to a conclusion , Hai Bodong unsealed him and then later both of them followed the snake worm fellow .

They continued there traveling for next 2 days , non-stop . Now they have come too deep into the desert . From almost previous 2 weeks , they had been continuously travelling .

While traveling , Xiao Yan was continuously planning his future route , possibilities , threats and his way of countering those upcoming threat .

' If I can get the flame , then everything will we worth it , and I will have little strength to resist the upcoming waves of problem .

Since Yao Lao is gone , I am in a great need of power .

Even though , I have ' Bone Chilling flame' in my possession but still it is very hard to refine it .

And it will take more time then normal .

First I will have to remove the spiritual seal on my forehead left by Yao Lao to be able to refine the flame .

That alone will take months with my strength , and above that . With my current strength . If I were to go for the ' Eleventh strongest flame ' , then I think , I won't be able refine it even in next 2 years .

And if leave that matters aside , and go with normal method as he went in the story , then I will be able to become a powerful Dou King within that time . And if I will be lucky and everything happened as my plans , then becoming a Dou Emperor within 2 years won't be too difficult either .

And even after knowing this , if I were to eat the ' Bone chilling flame ' now , then who would be a bigger idiot then me ?

After consuming ' Bone chilling flame ' at best I might become a peak Dou King or initial level Dou Emperor .

But same will happen even without eating it . And once I become a peak Dou Emperor , then I can refine it and straightaway become a powerful Dou Zong.... Hahaha.... hahaha.... '

Thinking all this a wide grin appeared on his face . But after a while , he heard a old voice from behind.

" Xiao Yan... did somehow , you lose that mysterious strength of yours ? " Asked Hai Bodong .

Hearing this Xiao Yan was a little started but then he chuckled and said " Yes.... I did lose it . "

After that Xiao Yan silently watched Hai Bodong who just nodded upon hearing this .

" Don't you want to know , what was the source of that mysterious power . " Added Xiao Yan after a while .

Hearing this , Hai Bodong's ears extended and he said . " Aren't you afraid that others will know . It must be precious to you . "

" Yes , it was precious. But that is not it . It's better to say , Him . He was non other then my master .

Master Yao Lao . He was the one who refined your tier 6 pill . He was also the one ,who trained me and made me a tier 5 alchemist within just 3 short years.

Can even Gu He do it , of course not .

You know why he can't do it . ?

Because he is just a mere tier 6 alchemist . And my master , he is Venerate Yao Lao . An alchemist Guru from the main land . "

The moment these words fell , Yao Lao hand's shook , his pupils shrank and his body stiffened . His breathing was little heavy and with an awkward expression he said " So you mean to say , that an alchemist Guru , refined my pill . "

" Yes precisely . An alchemist Guru . But alas , he isn't any more . " Said with sad expression .

After that he told him the hole story of how he got captured by the members of ' Soul shrine ' while they were fighting .

Of course he didn't say everything , he only said what was essentially and didn't said anything more then necessary .

The actual reason he said all this because , he wanted to intimidate Hai Bodong to certain extent . And that he should never dare to plot against him , or he had a god father . Who once recovered will personally look to it , if anything happened to him .
