Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son-Chapter 861: Obtained Dragon Flames
[You obtained 10,000,000 blue jewels.]
'Hey! This female dragon is not only beautiful and sexy; she's also wealthy.' Zhang Fei [5] muttered in his heart. "Please give your dragon flames now."
"Sister—"
"A bet is a bet, and I've already lost it." Long Zhenxia opened her palm, and her deep red dragon flames appeared above it.
Zhang Fei [5] also released his flames, and Long Zhenxia immediately shot her dragon flames at his flames.

[Ding]
[The host obtained the dragon flames. Fire count: 3.]
[The host's fire strength has increased by 300%.]

Zhang Fei [5] opened his other palm, and his flames spread out into three. The flames were crimson-colored, blackish-white, and deep red.
Long Zhenxia and Long Taiyuan were confused about the blackish-white flames, which were the soul flames. "Where did you get the blackish-white flames?"
"I got the soul flames in another realm."
"Did you get the soul flames from the Nine Hells Darkland?" As she observed the flames, Feng Qingmeng questioned him.
Feng Shanxi also spoke. "I've heard of the soul flames, and they are formed from the souls of living creatures who died in the Nine Hells Darkland. Based on news from outside, those demons searched for the soul flames for thousands of years, but they never succeeded in finding them."
"The demons have been searching for the soul flames for a long time, but they were only searching in places visible to their eyes. Meanwhile, the flames were previously hidden deep underground, and they were protected by a powerful soul demon." Zhang Fei [5] quickly cleared out his furnace and the remaining herbs, and he kept the five superior-grade True Fire Refining Pills. "The Nine Hells Darkland is a demon realm, but my light element is much stronger than the demon aura there. I managed to find their hideout and defeat the demon, and I absorbed the flames to increase my flame power."
"Do the souls in the soul flames not affect you?"
"Before I absorbed the flames, I purified the wandering souls inside using my light element first, and several people with light elements also helped me with that. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here in such a normal condition, right?" Zhang Fei [5] then spoke to Long Zhenxia. "Thank you for your dragon flames, and my flames are much stronger now, which will really help me in alchemy."
Long Zhenxia shook her head slightly. "Can you teach me your alchemy technique? Our match just now made me realize that my ability in alchemy is still too low, and I want to become a better alchemist."
"No." Zhang Fei [5]'s refusal disappointed Long Zhenxia. "All my techniques are my family heirlooms, and I will only teach them to my wife. If you are keen to learn my alchemy technique, you must be one first."
Long Zhenxia and everyone who heard that were stunned, including Ning Zhuan'er, whom Zhang Fei [5] helped before.
Unlike them, Long Taiyuan was furious because of his words, but Zhang Fei [5] quickly released a bit of his killing intent and enveloped him with it, suffocating him.
"Hah... Hah..." Long Taiyuan fell to his knees and gasped for air after Zhang Fei [5] withdrew his killing intent.
Zhang Fei [5] patted Long Taiyuan's shoulder. "Unlike a dragon in a cage like you, I have killed countless people, and I have fought with many cultivators who are stronger than all of you. You should think twice if you want to fight me, or I will skin you alive, and I will use your body parts for my purposes."
Long Taiyuan trembled, his eyes dilated in fear, and his beast instincts told him not to mess with Zhang Fei [5].
Zhang Fei [5] then walked out of the room as he looked at Feng Wushen. "Let's go look around the city, Brother. I want to buy some things I might not have, especially herbs."
"All right, I will take you to the market district." Feng Wushen nodded in reply.
Ning Zhuan'er immediately ran after them. "Senior brothers, please wait for me."
Feng Qingmeng and Feng Shanxi exchanged glances for a moment before leaving the room. "You guys can rest now, and we will continue the alchemy class tomorrow."
After they cleaned up their equipment, the alchemists hurriedly left the room. Many of them were disappointed that Zhang Fei [5] left so soon, especially since they had wanted to ask for his guidance on alchemy.
After she cleaned everything up, Long Zhenxia helped the frightened Long Taiyuan up. "You should stay away from that kid and don't do anything stupid, Brother. His cultivation is far below ours, but my beast instinct tells me that he is stronger than us, and we will die if we fight with him."
"I know, sister." Long Taiyuan replied with a serious nod, as his fear of Zhang Fei [5] still had not disappeared.
Long Zhenxia nodded slightly and left her brother. 'Sigh! I will meet that kid later, and I hope he is willing to give me some pointers on alchemy.'
Long Taiyuan also left the room, but he did not return to his room in the Blazing Phoenix Sect, and he returned to his dragon clan to hide.

Ning Zhuan'er walked beside Zhang Fei [5] with her head lowered with embarrassment, and she repeatedly squeezed the hem of her sleeves.
"Where are you from, Ning Zhuan'er? Are you a native of this realm?" Zhang Fei [5] softly asked.
"Eh?" Ning Zhuan'er looked up at him with surprise. "How do you know my name, Senior Brother?"
"It wasn't difficult to find out your name." Zhang Fei [5] replied with a wink. "My name is Zhang Fei, and I am a rogue dual cultivator."
Ning Zhuan'er was even more surprised when she heard that. "Are you really a rogue dual cultivator, Senior Brother Fei?"
"Yes." Zhang Fei [5] nodded. "I once joined the Yin-Yang Pavilion, and it was a dual cultivation sect. I'm no longer interested in joining any sect now, and I rather enjoy my free, unfettered life."
Ning Zhuan'er then explained. "Senior Brother Fei, my home realm is the Desolate Star Realm, and it is not far from this realm. Elder Shanxi found me in my home realm, and she brought me to this realm after she saw me performing alchemy."
"Do you realize that you are a genius?" Ning Zhuan'er blinked her eyes repeatedly at Zhang Fei [5]. "You are 17 years old, and you managed to reach the 1-Star Core Realm in just a year. You are still an apprentice alchemist, but your alchemy skills are already good. It's just that you get nervous too easily, and it messes up your concentration. Becoming an alchemist is not difficult, but it is not easy either, and a calm mind is the main key. Therefore, you must learn to control your emotions and stay calm during alchemy, and you must always pay attention to each process carefully. If you can do all that, I believe you will become a master alchemist in the future."
Ning Zhuan'er nodded in response. "I will try to do it, Senior Brother Fei."
"I believe you can do it, Zhuan'er."
Feng Wushen, who was walking beside them, suddenly spoke. "Brother, I feel that you are different from before, and you are so relaxed now."
"It is okay to be arrogant, especially when we are facing arrogant people like them, but vice versa." Zhang Fei [5] then turned toward the location of the Vermilion Sect. "I don't know what Feng Qingmeng and Feng Shanxi will do next, but I hope they can persuade the others to change that ridiculous rule, and I will open my alchemy shop on this island if they can do it."
"Aren't you afraid that Long Qichao and Zhu Weiqing will find trouble with you?"
Zhang Fei [5] answered Feng Wushen with a shake of his head. "If they want to find trouble with me and gang up on me, I just need to leave this realm. Once I become stronger than them, I will return to this realm to settle accounts with them."
"Haha." Feng Wushen laughed at that. "My father always said that running away is not a cowardly act, and it is a tactic to buy time and prepare a better strategy, especially when we are facing a strong enemy."
"Your father is right, and I always use such a strategy when I encounter enemies beyond my capabilities. When I am sure I can defeat them, I will attack them back, and I will kill them down to their roots." Ning Zhuan'er and Feng Wushen shuddered after Zhang Fei [5] said that. "Let's speed up."

Meanwhile, Feng Qingmeng and Feng Shanxi had arrived at the Vermilion Sect, and they immediately met the female sect master.
'Why are you two suddenly here, Qingmeng and Shanxi?'
The woman leisurely sits in her chair, and her body exudes confidence and maturity. Her long crimson hair flows freely down her back, slightly tousled to frame her refined face. Burning red eyes gleam with intelligence and quiet power, giving her a commanding presence. Her body is tall and alluringly curvaceous. Her chest is full and shapely, emphasized by the corset-style bodice of her deep crimson gown. Her narrow waist, bare shoulders, and delicate collarbone add a touch of sensual charm to her figure. Unfortunately, she has obvious limitations, especially since she can only speak through voice transmission due to the lack of vocal cords.
The two women immediately sat in front of him, and Feng Shanxi answered her. "Zhu Lingyao, we are here to discuss something important with you, particularly regarding the alchemy market in this realm."
'Hmm?' Zhu Lingyao looked at the two women questioningly, prompting them to explain the situation, especially about Zhang Fei [5]'s arrival and purpose. After she listened to their explanation, she immediately used her senses to search for him in the market district. She found him along with two others inside one of the herb shops, but the system repelled her senses as soon as she tried to examine him, causing her to frown. 'That kid can prevent me from examining him.'
Feng Qingmeng then told her. "At first I didn't understand why my empress and princess admired him so much, but we had already witnessed his alchemy skills before we came here, and he is the best young alchemist I have ever met. He is a king-rank alchemist, but he can concoct 5 rank pills just by reading the recipe for a few minutes, and he even concocted five superior-grade pills in one furnace."
Seeing that Zhu Lingyao didn't believe them, Feng Shanxi shared her memories of the previous competition between Zhang Fei [5] and Long Zhenxia with her.
After she watched Feng Shanxi's memories from beginning to end, Zhu Lingyao immediately summoned the best alchemist from her Vermilion Sect. She also contacted someone in a distant realm to search for information about Zhang Fei [5].
In a few minutes, another woman with red days walked into the room, and Zhu Lingyao shared those memories with her. 'Zhu Weiqing, watch them first.'
Zhu Weiqing's expression changed several times as she watched the memories. She was sometimes shocked, sometimes amazed, and sometimes envious. "Who is that kid, Sect Master?"
"Zhang Fei [5] came to this realm at Zhuang Qiaoming's request to open a branch of his shop in the lower land." Zhu Weiqing frowned in response to Feng Shanxi's answer. "In fact, he also planned to open a shop on this island, but he changed his mind after learning about our rules regarding the alchemy shops in this realm. Therefore, I came here to discuss this matter with you, and I thought we could make an exception for him."
Zhu Weiqing immediately refused. "I will not make an exception for that kid, and Long Qichao definitely agrees with me. If we allow that kid to open his branch shop in the lower land and sell such high-grade pills there, the strength of the other races will increase greatly, and they will eventually attack this island."
"Why don't you try looking at this problem from the other perspective? If Zhang Fei [5] is willing to open his shop on this island, members of our branch clans can buy them, and they will be able to compete with members of our main clans." Although Zhu Weiqing understood the situation, she remained unmoved, which caused Feng Shanxi and Feng Qingmeng to sigh. "I won't talk further to you, and I hope you can think about this matter seriously. His pills will bring beneficial changes to our members, and their chances of joining our main clans will be much greater after they become stronger."
After Feng Shanxi and Feng Qingmeng left, Zhu Lingyao immediately spoke to Zhu Weiqing. 'For your information, that kid's status is really unusual.'
"Hmm? What's up with that kid's status?"
'I've contacted my cousin, and Zhu Hong told me that Zhang Fei [5] is the Soul Emperor's disciple. According to her, he also had a special closeness with Feng Yao, and Empress Feng praised her to the skies.' Zhu Lingyao then explained a few things to her, and Zhu Weiqing's eyes widened in shock. 'The rule in this realm has existed for millennia, but I think it's time for a change.'
Zhu Weiqing frowned at that. 'Are you really willing to agree to their idea of giving that kid an exception?'
'Yes.' Zhu Lingyao answered with a nod. 'Some of those races can rival our beast races, but many of them are far behind us. Even if that kid opens his branch shop in the lower land, they won't be able to catch up to us in a short time. Furthermore, the members of our branch clan will also reap the benefits if he opens another shop on this island, so I think that's the best choice for everyone. By the way, Feng Qingmeng and Feng Shanxi should be going to see Long Qichao now, so I want you to go to the Dragon Sect and join them to persuade him.'
Zhu Weiqing actually didn't like the decision, but she followed her orders and left directly. Zhu Lingyao, on the other hand, stood up and stood behind the window, looking towards the market district. 'A heavenly fox, huh?'

The three women had arrived at the Dragon Sect, and a middle-aged man with two green horns on his head met them. Feng Qingmeng immediately explained to Long Qichao the reason for their arrival, causing his expression to turn angry. "Are you kidding me? Do you really think you can let a snotty brat mess up the rules in our realm?"

"Old Long, the snotty brat you are referring to, is one of the Soul Emperor's disciples." Long Qichao looked at Zhu Weiqing with wide eyes. "Lingyao got information about his identity from our matriarch, so it can't be wrong. I don't like this decision, but they are right that our clans will reap the benefits from his pills."
"Hah." Long Qichao exhaled heavily. "This realm is my dragon clan's ancestral realm, and all of you are invaders. I don't care if that kid is the Soul Emperor's disciple or whatever his status is; he must obey the rules in this realm. If he would rather not obey them, he can leave this realm, or we will expel him by force and violence."
"But—"
"Leave!" Long Qichao shouted at them. "If you guys insist on supporting that kid, both of your clans will become enemies of my dragon's clan."
The three women did not linger and left directly, especially since they would rather not have trouble with Long Qichao and the dragon clan.
Meanwhile, Long Qichao reported Zhang Fei [5]'s presence and intention to his patriarch; he also sent some people to find him and bring him to him. "If that kid dares to mess around in my ancestral land, I will crush him."
