Chapter 68: Yang Restoration Body Sculpting Pill

"Zi Changhe, what bullshit are you spouting? I've just returned from outside . When did I kidnap Xiang Shaoyun?" Li Xuemeng replied with no sign of nervousness . Even if he was the culprit, he would definitely not admit it .

"Stop trying to deny it . Shaoyun has gone missing while his pet is with you . You are surely the culprit . Say it! What did you do to Shaoyun? If anything happens to him, I won't spare you!" Zi Changhe bellowed at Li Xuemeng .

"This beast must have followed me while I was on my way back . I have no idea what you're talking about . Elder Zhen Peng, please show me justice!" Li Xuemeng replied .

But before Elder Zhen Peng could say anything, Little White meowed again and ran off, waving his paw repeatedly as if trying to get Zi Changhe to go with him .

"This beast is an intelligent one . He definitely knows where Shaoyun is at," Zi Changhe said before chasing after Little White .

As for Elder Zhen Peng, he snorted coldly at Li Xuemeng and said, "Before we figure out the truth, you are not allowed to leave the Martial Hall Palace . Otherwise, I will hunt you down no matter where you go . "

After that, Elder Zhen Peng also ran after Little White . Once the two left, Li Xuemeng's face paled . He had taken everything into consideration before carrying out his plan, but he had missed the cub . He despaired at the thought of what was waiting for him .

"Father, this . . . this has nothing to do with you, right?" Li Tianba asked cautiously .

Li Xuemeng did not give him an answer . He shut his eyes and thought to himself, Wu Fuxiang, you better move fast . If they find him, I'm dead!

Behind the Wu Estate was an abandoned residence . This area was still the turf of Wu Clan, but it was an abandoned area . Currently, Xiang Shaoyun was there, still unconscious within the sack . Suddenly, a certain hidden wall moved before opening to reveal a tunnel . A person appeared from the tunnel .

The newcomer quickly lifted Xiang Shaoyun and entered the tunnel . After they entered, the opening closed again, and the wall returned to normal . This was a man-made tunnel that connected directly to a hidden room below the Wu Estate . The hidden room was spacious, and Wu Fuxiang was currently standing there waiting anxiously .

Before him was a massive cauldron . This was a rectangular cauldron with a simple and crude design . On the cauldron were numerous complicated markings, making the cauldron seem out of the ordinary .

A raging flame was burning under the cauldron, while atop the cauldron, steam could be seen billowing out . Numerous valuable medicinal herbs were around the cauldron, a large amount of spirit medicines among them . The medicinal herbs filled the room with a medicinal smell . The person carrying Xiang Shaoyun appeared, and he dumped Xiang Shaoyun on the ground .

"Alright . All of you stand guard outside . Don't come in without my command," Wu Fuxiang ordered . With his command, the people hidden throughout the room scattered and left .

"Haha, I have finally gotten my hands on this five-star physique! Now, I can start refining my Yang Restoration Body Sculpting Pill!" Wu Fuxiang howled with laughter . The Yang Restoration Body Sculpting Pill was a pill capable of increasing one's life span and improving one's physique .

Wu Fuxiang did not have much of his life span left and would probably be dead in a few years . He could not accept that . But if he wanted to keep on living, he had to reach the King Realm . Unfortunately, he no longer had sufficient vitality to reach the King Realm . Thus, he had to seek an alternative .

The Yang Restoration Body Sculpting Pill was the best alternative . However, the Yang Restoration Body Sculpting Pill required someone with a five-star physique to be the main ingredient . That was why he had tried everything he could to kidnap Xiang Shaoyun .

Wu Fuxiang did not wish to keep dragging this on . Thus, he removed the sack around Xiang Shaoyun . He then removed Xiang Shaoyun’s clothing, leaving him naked . If someone else saw this scene, they might have thought that this old man was an old pervert . Wu Fuxiang proceeded to toss Xiang Shaoyun into the boiling water within the cauldron .

"AHHH!"

The unconscious Xiang Shaoyun was immediately awakened by the scalding pain . Unfortunately, his screams did not matter as the lid of the cauldron was lowered immediately after he was tossed inside .

"I'll first boil you until you're cooked before slowly adding the other herbs . I reckon the pill will be done in three days and three nights," Wu Fuxiang muttered .

Within the cauldron, Xiang Shaoyun was no longer unconscious . However, after the initial scream, he sank into silence . He was not dead . Rather, he was accustomed to such temperatures .

"Damn it . Who's trying to cook me? Good thing I basically grew up in a cauldron . Otherwise, I would've been cooked by now," Xiang Shaoyun cursed . The slap he received earlier had given him quite a serious injury . Even the scalding hot water almost couldn’t wake him up . He had been soaked in boiling medicine since young . Thus, his physique was something nobody could compare with .

Even so, if this continued, he would suffocate to death before he was cooked . He started circulating the Heaven Conquering Overlord Manual and started to slowly heal his injury . At the same time, he borrowed the heat in the cauldron to further squeeze out the potential hidden within his body .

The temperature in the cauldron was excessively high—to the point Xiang Shaoyun's skin turned completely red . But because of the excessive temperature, the potential hidden within him was unearthed at an astonishing speed .

This speed even surpassed the speed Xiang Shaoyun had awakened his potential when he was in the limit rooms . As he awakened the hidden power within him, his injury healed at a terrifyingly quick pace . Apart from that, his strength also grew . But instead of advancing his cultivation, Xiang Shaoyun pushed the newly gained energy to his astral cosmos sea .

"This time, I have to increase the size by at least one fold," Xiang Shaoyun vowed .

Compared to strength, he longed to increase the space within his astral cosmos sea . After all, for him, increasing strength wasn't hard, but expanding his astral cosmos sea was . If he expanded his astral cosmos sea, he would be able to store even more stuff within . That was the function he needed most for now .

Meanwhile, Little White had arrived at the abandoned building behind Wu Estate with Zi Changhe and Elder Zhen Peng . Unfortunately, they couldn't find Xiang Shaoyun here at all . Because of that, both Elder Zhen Peng and Zi Changhe started wondering if Little White had brought them to the wrong place .

"Nobody? How can there be nobody here? Have they destroyed even his corpse to remove all evidence?" Zi Changhe said with indignation .

Elder Zhen Peng scanned his surroundings and said, "They might have moved him somewhere else instead . I think someone was here just earlier . "

"Meow!"

Little White meowed before he started searching for Xiang Shaoyun's smell . Unfortunately, a different strange odor lingered in the air, masking all other smells . Because of that, Little White’s search was fruitless .
