Chapter 596: Chapter 301: Blood Pill’s Sinister Tribulation (Part 4)

Li An smiled faintly and said, "Indeed, indeed... By the way, I want to meet Shangguan Xiaoxiao. Could you please inform Brother Yi?"

Yi Wei said, "That’s easy to arrange!"

As long as Li An doesn’t leave this place, communication with the outside is allowed.

Moreover, since the Yi Clan treats Li An as a bargaining chip, they must let Shangguan Xiaoxiao know that Li An is doing well here, so she can carry out her tasks with peace of mind.

A few days later, Shangguan Xiaoxiao arrived.

"Li Gou, what, are you being bullied here?"

Upon seeing Li An, she spoke calmly.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to ask, what do you plan to do next?"

Li An said, "Shangguan Shengxian has come, Yi Clan is taking the lead, if she finds Lady Yi’s tomb first..."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao said, "Li Gou, what do you want to say?"

"Find an opportunity to leave later."

Li An said softly, "Yi Clan is not suitable for you. Battling with her is meaningless."

"I listened to you and resumed practicing Demon Dao, but this time, you should listen to me."

"If I leave, you’ll be doomed."

"I won’t die."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao stared at him, "Are you sure?"

Li An just smiled and looked at the storage ring on her jade-like finger, "What’s inside? Can you give it to me?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao took it off and threw it to him.

"Li Gou, I will consider what you said, but before that, perhaps you should prove that you can survive."

She was ready to leave immediately.

"Keep a close watch on Shangguan Shengxian’s actions. Notify me of any abnormalities and don’t act rashly!"

Li An reminded her again!

"Got it!"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao responded as her figure receded into the distance.

Their entire communication was through secret voice transmissions.

Next, Li An began to secretly do something else—refining corpses!

In his Immortal Coffin, there remained some of the Blood Food previously collected for Lady Yi. Li An habitually kept something in reserve, so he never gave it all to Lady Yi.

Now, these things came in handy.

He injected the Life Seed’s aura into them, continuously refining, until the original aura of the Life Seed could no longer be seen, and the corpses showed subtle changes...

Fortunately, the Yi Clan’s monitoring of Li An was relatively lax, giving him the space to do this.

If the Yi Clan had kept a constant watch on him, he would truly have had no chance.

However, it was understandable, as to the Yi Clan, he was merely a pawn to threaten the Shangguan sisters. As long as he was trapped here, the Yi Clan had no extra interest in managing him.

In a blink, half a month passed.

On this day, Li An was drinking with Yi Wei again.

Their relationship grew closer and closer, naturally forming a brotherly bond. Li An also learned more from Yi Wei.

"Brother Yi, during this time, thanks to you, I’ve lacked nothing in terms of food and drink. I don’t know how to repay you, please take this—"

He handed Yi Wei a storage bag.

"What is this?"

Yi Wei opened it curiously, only to find three corpses inside!

"Brother Li, didn’t I tell you already? Only those at the Immortal Level are useful..."

Yi Wei said.

"Shh!"

Li An made a silencing gesture and said, "I asked my master Shangguan Xiaoxiao for them, she said these corpses are very special, the life essence they contain is no weaker than that of an Immortal!"

Hearing this, Yi Wei was immediately astonished. He knew Shangguan Xiaoxiao’s status, she was an Honored Guest Elder!

The items she provided... were likely genuine.

"I don’t know if it’s true or not, Brother Yi just use it for now. If it doesn’t work, then forget it, you won’t lose anything..."

Li An chuckled.

Yi Wei thought the same, he could just ask his elder brother Yi Jie to try it out later. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Brother Li, thank you, thank you!"

Yi Wei raised his glass and toasted Li An.

...

"Hopefully, it’s useful."

Li An brought Shangguan Xiaoxiao over, on one hand, truly wanting her to leave the Yi Clan.

After all, if everything goes smoothly, he would surely be hunted by the Yi Clan later...

At that time, if Shangguan Xiaoxiao stayed here, she would be implicated because of him.

Secondly, he deliberately asked Shangguan Xiaoxiao for a ring as an origin for the corpses he refined.

To avoid unnecessary suspicion.

The reason he intentionally got close to and even flattered the lowly guard Yi Wei was because Yi Wei was his only channel to the outside world!

Otherwise, someone like Yi Wei, a Void Refining Stage cultivator, was like an ant before him!

He could kill him with ease.

But Li An would never stick to things like status or dignity uselessly. As long as it was useful to him, he would do it!

Using Yi Wei to indirectly attract the attention of the Yi Clan’s higher-ups, then he could meet Yi Lingwei...

At that time, he could break the deadlock created by Shangguan Shengxian, and also make a move for his future progression to the Immortal Dao!

...

Goodnight.
