Li Zhen’s eyes widened and his mouth was agape. At this moment, he didn’t have time to feel sad about Li Mengyao’s death. In addition to the shock, he was secretly rejoicing in his heart. It was fortunate that he didn’t enter the Medicine God Valley. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to come out of it alive.
Although Cao Yuhuan was very shocked, too, she quickly regained her composure. Her eyes darted about. No one could tell what she was thinking of.
These cultivators who managed to escape from the Medicine God Valley left quickly and peace was restored to the place.
Cao Yuhuan said, “Your Majesty, Qin Haodong dared to offend our Dragon Royal Family. Not only did he kill Director Huang, but he also killed the second princess. We must avenge their deaths.”
Li Guangyao said gloomily, “Didn’t you hear the news? Qin Haodong is very powerful now. When he killed Director Huang and Shang Wenli, he didn’t even need to make a move.
“His cultivation is very high and we can’t fight against him now. Even if we want to take revenge, we don’t have the strength.”
After that, he sighed and was about to give the order to withdraw. At this time, Cao Yuhuan said, “Your Majesty, if you withdraw now, you will fall into that boy’s trap. That will be a great loss for our Dragon Royal Family.”
“What do you mean?”
Li Guangyao said, “The directors of the Dragon Academy, the Tiger Academy, and the Rosefinch Academy are all at the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm. Their cultivation is not inferior to mine at all.
“Now, all three of them have been killed by Qin Haodong and none of the people from the three academies managed to escape. This matter should not be false, right?”
Cao Yuhuan said, “Your Majesty, yes, this matter did happen. However, since Qin Haodong’s cultivation is so high, why hasn’t he come out of the Medicine God Valley and killed us all? Have you ever thought of that?”
“This…”
Li Guangyao was stunned. He was usually quite an astute person. However, he was so shocked just now and did not think about the situation from that point of view.
The Dragon Royal Family and Qin Haodong could be said to have entered a life-and-death situation. If Qin Haodong really had such great power, he would definitely come out to make trouble.
However, Qin Haodong and his people had not made any moves till now. This was slightly unusual.
Hearing Cao Yuhuan’s words, Li Zhen also calmed down greatly. He asked, “Mother, do you mean that Qin Haodong still doesn’t dare to come out and fight with us?”
Cao Yuhuan said with a profound smile, “If I’m right, Qin Haodong must have obtained some magical means in the wooden house of the Medicine God Valley, which gives him the power to control everything inside.
“But at the same time, there is a huge limitation to this power. His power could only be used within the Medicine God Valley. If he leaves the Medicine God Valley, he will revert to his original state and can’t use it. Thus, he has not come out yet.”
“You’re right. I was deceived for a while,” Li Guangyao said. “In our Lingwu Continent, people after breaking through the peak of the Grand Completion Realm will pass the tribulation and ascend. In this case, it’s impossible for Qin Haodong’s cultivation to be so strong.
“Even if he has reached the peak of the Grand Completion Realm, he can’t kill people at the late stage of Grand Completion Realm like that. If his cultivation is higher than the peak of the Grand Completion Realm, he will have to go through the tribulation and ascend.
“The queen is right. To kill the people of the three academies, he must have used some magical power from the Medicine God Valley, which was not his real cultivation.”
Li Zhen said, “Then, what should we do? Continue to stay here and wait for Qin Haodong to come out?”
“We certainly have to wait. This is a great opportunity for us. We must not miss it.”
Cao Yuhuan said, “Now we can see that Qin Haodong has total control over the Medicine God Valley. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have opened the spatial gate in advance and sent those people out.
“If we can catch him, we will gain control of the Medicine God Valley and the treasures inside. Then, you can imagine how much benefit we can get.”
When he heard her words, Li Zhen’s eyes lit up in an instant.
“If we can control the Medicine God Valley, we won’t need to wait a hundred years to enter it. We can enter at any time we want. Our Dragon Kingdom will be strong.”
Cao Yuhuan then told Li Guangyao, “Your Majesty, you have reached the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm. If you can obtain the natural treasures in the Medicine God Valley, not to mention the peak of the Grand Completion Realm, it wouldn’t be difficult for you to break through to the stage of the Tribulation Realm. At that time, you will be an immortal.”
Her words were full of encouragement. She knew what Li Guangyao’s innermost desire was.
Sure enough, Li Guangyao’s expression changed from shock to excitement. He said, “The queen is right. Although we have suffered a heavy loss this time, we have also encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
“As long as we catch Qin Haodong, there is no way the Dragon Kingdom’s strength will not improve.”
Cao Yuhuan said again, “Your Majesty, for safety’s sake, I don’t think we have enough strength now. That boy has gained benefits in the Medicine God Valley, and his cultivation may have improved.
“No matter what, we can’t let him escape this time. We must be fully prepared.”
Li Guangyao thought for a moment and said, “You’re right. Now I’ll inform the Tiger Kingdom and the Rosefinch Kingdom and ask them to send all the masters here.
“At that time, with the help of the two kingdoms, Qin Haodong won’t be able to escape even if he has three heads and six arms.”
He turned to Li Zhen and said, “Zhen’er, I’ll leave it to you. Inform the Tiger Kingdom and the Rosefinch Kingdom as soon as possible. Tell them to send all their masters here immediately if they want to get the treasures in the Medicine God Valley.”
“Yes, father. I’ll do it right away.”
After that, Li Zhen left and used the unique method of communication among the three kingdoms to send out his information at the fastest speed possible.
Cao Yuhuan said again, “Your Majesty, I don’t think this is enough.”
Li Guangyao said in shock, “Isn’t it enough? The strongest forces of the three kingdoms will be used. What else can I do?”
Cao Yuhuan leaned close to him and whispered a few words in his ear. Then, she continued, “Only then can we guarantee the absolute safety, and can we also intimidate the Rosefinch Kingdom and the Tiger Kingdom after we succeed, so our Dragon Kingdom can obtain the greatest benefits.”
Li Guangyao hesitated for a moment and said, “I’ll try it. Whether I can make it or not remains to be seen.”
In the Medicine God Valley, when Qin Haodong opened his eyes again, his body was filled with extremely powerful momentum. He had reached the peak of the Grand Completion Realm.
At this moment, his cultivation was one step away from the stage of Tribulation Realm.
He looked down and saw that one-third of the Spiritual Marrow Pool had been consumed. Spiritual marrow was indeed a good thing. He had only used one-third of it.
If he absorbed all the remaining spiritual marrow, he would be able to go through the tribulation and ascend. However, that was not his goal for the moment.
Looking to the side, everyone else had already finished cultivating. At this moment, Luo Dongqing had already stepped into the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm.
However, Niu Cuihua and the others did not improve much. After all, these girls had improved too quickly recently.
Seeing that he had finished his cultivation, Niu Cuihua ran over and pulled his arm. Then, she said, “Hubby, have you reached the peak of the Grand Completion Realm?”
Qin Haodong nodded. Niu Cuihua said nervously, “Then you are not allowed to cultivate anymore in the future. You must wait for me. I will ascend with you. Otherwise, what will we do if you leave?”
Although Tu Jiaojiao and the others did not say anything, they all looked nervous. Obviously, they had the same idea as Niu Cuihua. It was not easy for them to find a good husband. If their husband ascended to the Immortal Realm, they would feel sad.
“Don’t worry. I am in such a hurry to reach this level because I have something to do. I will not cultivate again in the future.”
Qin Haodong still had a lot of things to do in the human world. He had to go back to the earth. What he had to do in the future was not to improve his cultivation, but to suppress the process of his ascension.
After that, with a thought, the Little Witch appeared in front of everyone.
“Little Brother, why didn’t you release me until now? I was bored to death in the Seven Storeys Pagoda.” The Little Witch said excitedly, “My Holy Spirit Body has awakened the third time. I’m finally a reliable summoner. I can summon whatever I want in the future.”
Qin Haodong looked at her and nodded with satisfaction.
After the third awakening, not only was her summoning skill more reliable, but her cultivation had also reached the stage of the Grand Completion Realm. It seemed that the five Earthvein Spiritual Fruits she consumed had not been in vain.
He said to Niu Cuihua, “How long have I cultivated?”
“It’s been three days.” Niu Cuihua said, her face full of yearning, “Let’s get out of here as soon as possible. Otherwise, what if those people from the Dragon Kingdom run away? How would we teach them a lesson?”
The Little Witch also shouted excitedly, “Yes, we must teach the three kingdoms a good lesson this time. They actually want to join forces to destroy our Tortoise Kingdom. We must show them our true colors.”
Luo Dongqing also said, “Our Tortoise Academy has been silent for so many years. Now, we have a master at the peak of the Grand Completion Realm. It is time for us to rise up.”
“Then, let’s go out now.”
Qin Haodong was also very anxious. After dealing with the three kingdoms, he would return to the Tortoise Kingdom and open a space passage to go back to earth.
He waved his crystal wand. Then, everyone left the Medicine God Valley and appeared in the valley below Qingling Mountain once more.
When they walked out of the spatial gate, they saw about 100,000 soldiers from the Dragon Kingdom, the Rosefinch Kingdom and the Tiger Kingdom gathered at the foot of Qingling Mountain.
Opposite them were the kings from the three kingdoms, Li Guangyao of the Dragon Kingdom, Lei Potian of the Tiger Kingdom, and Liu Zhaoji of the Rosefinch Kingdom.
Behind each of them were dozens of masters at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm. There were more than fifty or sixty people in total.
Li Zhen shouted, “Qin Haodong, how dare you come out?”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “You’ve arranged such a huge welcoming reception for me. If I don’t come out, won’t you be disappointed?”
Li Guangyao shouted, “Qin Haodong, you colluded with the people of the Ghost King Sect and killed countless elites of our three kingdoms. Today, we must kill you and let you pay with blood.
“Of course, if you can hand over the treasures in the Medicine God Valley and kneel down to beg for mercy, we can consider sparing your life.”
Qin Haodong sneered and said, “You think too much. I haven’t thought about letting you go yet!”
Lei Potian snapped, “What an arrogant boy! I’ll let you see the strength of our three kingdoms today!”
Li Guangyao shouted, “There’s no need to talk any further with him. Let’s attack together.”
After that, everyone who was already fully prepared surrounded Qin Haodong and the others.
The ones at the front were all masters at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm. When these people joined forces, the momentum was earth-shattering.
