Supreme Alchemist-Chapter 587: Discovered

"Vice-President, I will always remember the kindness you showed me today."

In the courtyard, Long Yan gave a bow to Mo Shanghun.

Without Mo Shanghun, it was uncertain whether he could have escaped from the hands of the Jiu Xiao Emperor, Master of Lianshen Sect, Sect Master of Chunqiu Sect, and Supreme Master of Taiyuan.

Mo Shanghun stepped in, and the four people such as the Jiu Xiao Emperor naturally did not dare to embarrass Long Yan anymore. The cost of offending the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance was beyond their ability to bear.

Long Yan was a member of the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance, not to mention that this was happening in Ling Jiu Imperial City.

"You kid are really a handful. If it weren’t for Elder Yao’s sake, I wouldn’t have bothered to save you."

Mo Shanghun cast a glance at Long Yan.

In Ling Jiu Imperial City, nothing could escape his eyes. Mo Shanghun knew that the four people like Jiu Xiao Emperor wanted to act against Long Yan, but he only appeared at the last moment.

Long Yan just smiled and didn’t say anything.

"Don’t you have anything to say?"

Mo Shanghun looked at Long Yan and seeing that Long Yan had no plans to say anything, couldn’t help but remind him.

"What should I say?"

Long Yan, of course, continued to play dumb. He fully understood what Mo Shanghun meant.

"Crafty kid."

Mo Shanghun’s gaze became slightly focused, sighed in his heart, and then said: "The whereabouts of the key and the Order of the Holy Fire."

"Finally revealing your fox’s tail, huh?"

Long Yan chuckled inwardly. He had long guessed that Mo Shanghun was hiding in the shadows and appeared at the last moment to make himself indebted to him.

"Ah, you’re talking about that."

Long Yan pretended to suddenly realize, and then said: "The key is indeed in my hands, but I have no idea where the Order of the Holy Fire is. Yu Kun only told me eight words."

"Which eight words?"

Mo Shanghun hurriedly asked.

In his view, these eight words must have something to do with the Order of the Holy Fire.

"The Key of Holy Fire, the Dragon is hidden in the abyss."

Long Yan bluffed.

"The Key of Holy Fire, the Dragon is hidden in the abyss?"

Mo Shanghun’s gaze furrowed slightly, and he was just as confused, not understanding the meaning behind it.

"Did Yu Kun really only tell you these eight words?"

Mo Shanghun was somewhat suspicious, because with just these eight words, he couldn’t guess the meaning behind them.

"Absolutely."

Long Yan said with a guarantee: "I don’t know what these eight words mean either. Otherwise, the Order of the Holy Fire would be in my hands already."

Long Yan never blushed when he lied.

Mo Shanghun was always watching Long Yan closely, but he couldn’t see any clues. Long Yan didn’t seem to be lying, so he somewhat believed him.

"Give me the key to the Order of the Holy Fire."

Mo Shanghun said, and then explained: "Now, the news that the key to the Order of the Holy Fire is on you has spread. The key being on you will only bring you endless trouble. If you give me the key, I will release the news, and that way, you will be in less trouble."

"You really know how to look out for me."

Long Yan muttered in his heart, and then said: "This key is related to the Order of the Holy Fire, and the Order is a priceless treasure. I can give you the key, but you should also give me some benefits, right?"

Handing over the key without any benefits was not his style.

"You still dare to ask me for benefits? It’s good that I haven’t settled the score with you."

Mo Shanghun gave Long Yan an annoyed look, and said: "Do you think I don’t know what you did in the Spirit Spring Illusion?"

"This..."

Long Yan’s gaze flickered slightly, and he also felt somewhat guilty.

"Black Dragon, what’s going on? Didn’t you say we wouldn’t be discovered?"

In secret, Long Yan angrily shouted at the Black Dragon.

"Did I say that?" freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Black Dragon’s tone was clearly lacking confidence.

"You..."

Long Yan was so angry in his heart that he wanted to pull the Black Dragon out of the Bury the sky coffin and beat it up.

"Do you still want benefits?"

Mo Shanghun looked at Long Yan with a smirk, making it difficult for Long Yan to save face.

"Well..."

Long Yan laughed awkwardly and said, "This time, you saved my life, and I have nothing to repay you with, so I’ll give you this key."

Having said that, Long Yan took the key from inside the Azure Dragon Ring and handed it to Mo Shanghun.

"You know what’s good for you."

Once the key was in hand, Mo Shanghun was overjoyed.

Right now, Mo Shanghun left the courtyard, and while walking, he was still pondering the mysteries of the eight characters.

"It’s better this way; there will be fewer troubles."

Watching Mo Shanghun’s retreating figure, Long Yan revealed a playful smile from the corner of his mouth.

Although his plan to use the key to gain benefits fell through, as long as the news spread, no one else would target him, which would save him a lot of trouble.

"There’s not much time left until the Demon Sky Remains. Let’s start cultivating."

Then, Long Yan entered the room, then entered inside the Azure Dragon Ring and started cultivating.

......

"What?"

In the black night, within an extremely secret chamber, three figures stood.

Two of them were Feng Wu and Ghost; the other person was a mysterious person wrapped in a black robe, not knowing whether they were male or female.

"Young Master, the key is already in Mo Shanghun’s hands. It’s impossible for us to get it."

The person in the black robe spoke in a low voice.

Taking the key from Mo Shanghun was not even something one should think about.

"Idiot, you can’t even handle this simple task."

Feng Wu scolded coldly, and then said to Ghost, "The Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance has already obtained the key and must know the whereabouts of the Order of the Holy Fire. Keep a close eye on the movements of the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance. If they find the Order of the Holy Fire, get it at all costs."

"Young Master, do you want me to enter the Demon Sky Remains with you?"

Ghost asked.

There are many dangers within the Demon Sky Remains, and with him there, Feng Wu’s safety is guaranteed.

"No need, just do what you’re supposed to do."

Feng Wu said, and then his gaze fell on the man in the black robe, "You are the most crucial part of our plan. You must not expose yourself. Once you’re exposed, you’ll lose your value. You know the consequences."

"Subordinate understands."

The person in the black robe respectfully replied.

......

One day after another passed, and the opening of the Demon Sky Remains was getting closer and closer, and Long Yan had been cultivating within the Azure Dragon Ring.

The night was as dark as ink, and one could not see their fingers when they stretched out their hand.

"Huh?"

Long Yan was cultivating in the Azure Dragon Ring when he suddenly sensed something and immediately left the Azure Dragon Ring.

"Sneaking around, come out."

Long Yan’s eyes narrowed. His room had been controlled by someone, a strong one, with a strength of at least a Seven Turned Emperor Realm.

"Hehehe... Kid, you managed to discover me, worthy of being the leader of the Four-sided Divine Battle."

A creepy laughter came from somewhere, making people shudder and feel uncomfortable.

"Is it for the Order of the Holy Fire again?"

Long Yan frowned slightly. Mo Shanghun had already spread the news, and there shouldn’t be anyone targeting him for the Order of the Holy Fire anymore.

If it’s not for the Holy Fire Order, then there is only one possibility. The person who came is here to assassinate him.
