If not for Xiao Yixian needing it, he would never have wasted time here with the guy. He would have thrown him out of Ye Courtyard long ago.
If the other side still didn't dare to trade this time, then it proved that Xiao Yan simply didn't know the location of that Ban Sheng's tomb at all.
Everything before was just him trying to get something for nothing. Of course, if Xiao Yan agreed to trade, then he could clarify later. He did indeed have lots of information about the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, just not the exact location.
Even though he didn't know the exact place, he did know when the flame would descend into the world and many details related to it. Even without the location, considering that the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Space was created by the Purifying Lotus Saint, a peerless powerhouse...
There were barely a few on the entire Dou Qi Continent who could compare. Information about the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was far more valuable on the surface than the location of a Ban Sheng's tomb, and he had never said he knew the exact place anyway.
So even if things escalated later, he would still have justification. But when Xiao Yan heard Lin Feng's words, his heart instantly sank again. He truly had no idea where that place was. How was he supposed to lead anyone there?Of course, there was no way he could admit that.
So after remaining silent for a while, Xiao Yan opened his mouth and said, "It's possible, but I don't have any strong experts with me right now, and you hold a grudge against me. There's no way I'll leave Holy Pill City with you."
After calculating how long he needed to absorb the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame and rescue his master, he continued, "Give me three to four months. Once I gather enough strong people, I'll trade with you."
After speaking, Xiao Yan didn't stay any longer and walked straight toward the exit of the hall.
After all, with Lin Feng's attitude, no matter whether he wanted to trade information for information or exchange it for his master's belongings, the other party would insist on verification. Right now, he had no idea where that tomb was.
So he could only leave for now. When he truly obtained the location later, then he would return to negotiate terms with Lin Feng.
"Husband, seeing how readily Xiao Yan walked away, I fear he doesn't know the tomb of that Ban Sheng who possessed the same Woeful Poison Body as me. Based on his earlier words, I suspect he was deceiving us."
Watching Xiao Yan leave her line of sight, Xiao Yixian frowned and spoke to Lin Feng beside her. As she spoke, disappointment surfaced on her gentle and beautiful face.
"No, that place should exist. Otherwise, Xiao Yan and his master wouldn't have been able to produce the Poison Pill Method in the first place. But judging from Xiao Yan's reaction this time, he likely doesn't know the exact location."
Hearing her, Lin Feng shook his head and replied. He too was disappointed at not obtaining the exact position of the Ban Sheng's tomb.
But he also knew that in the current situation, there was no rushing this. Even if he captured Xiao Yan, he would still not be able to extract information that Xiao Yan himself did not have.
"So you mean the Poison Pill Method you got from those two back then may have also originated from that tomb?"
Hearing Lin Feng say this, Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes lit up and she spoke again, excitement returning to her tone.
Lin Feng nodded and casually found a reason. "It should be correct. After all, Yao Chen wasn't a Woeful Poison Body, nor did he have multiple Heavenly Flames. No matter how you look at it, that secret method couldn't have been something Yao Chen developed."
"That makes sense."
Hearing the reasoning, Xiao Yixian also felt it was extremely likely. After all, no matter how you looked at it, Lin Feng's reasoning made perfect sense.
Then her beautiful eyes returned to Lin Feng as she asked, "So what do we do now?"
"We wait. For now, we can only wait until Xiao Yan starts moving. Only then can we execute the original plan."
Hearing this, Lin Feng spoke with a hint of helplessness. After all, their goal this time was to take advantage of the chaos and snatch as many soul bodies from the Hall of Souls as possible. But if Xiao Yan did nothing, they couldn't act either.
As for Xiao Yan, after returning to his residence and informing the others, he headed to the three giants of the Pill Tower and retrieved the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame stored with them.
Immediately afterward, he rented the best alchemy chamber available in Holy Pill City and entered it to begin absorbing the Heavenly Flame. He knew that with his current strength at Eight-Star Dou Zong, it was becoming difficult to deal with his enemies.
Therefore, he had to increase his strength first if he wanted even a bit of security. The fastest way to increase his strength was naturally to absorb the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame, the only Heavenly Flame in his possession that he had yet to refine.
However, while he was in seclusion, it was torment for Lin Feng and the girls still waiting impatiently in Ye Courtyard. He originally thought Xiao Yan would depart within a day or two to head for the Hall of Souls to rescue Yao Chen.
But after waiting six to seven days in a row, there was still no word from Xiao Yan. Helpless, Lin Feng could only summon Zi Yan back using a spatial jade slip. In the end, from the Ancient Void Dragon's Zi Yan had assigned to monitor Xiao Yan, Lin Feng learned the truth.
After Xiao Yan left Ye Courtyard, he immediately went to see the Three Leaders of the Pill Tower. However, since those three were far too strong, the Ancient Void Dragon did not dare approach. Therefore, there was no useful information about what they discussed.
All that was known was that afterward, Xiao Yan rented a top tier cultivation chamber and went inside to enter seclusion.
"What, are you saying that Xiao Yan has a Nine Dragon Lightning Flame in his hands?!"
Inside Ye Courtyard, Lin Feng stared in shock at the burly man before him, raising his voice in disbelief.
"Yes. If it were another Heavenly Flame, I might not have been able to sense it. But because the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame contains dragon might, I was able to detect it by chance."
Hearing Lin Feng's question, the burly man nodded and answered with complete seriousness.
After receiving confirmation, Lin Feng's brows twisted tightly together as he muttered, "That's strange. If that Heavenly Flame is really the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame, then there's a high chance it was given to Xiao Yan by Burning Flame Valley, right?"
"Otherwise, with Xiao Yan's Eight-Star Dou Zong strength, trying to capture the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame would most likely get him killed instead. After all, the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame ranks twelfth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. Even I would suffer losses if unprepared."
Unable to make sense of it no matter how he tried, Lin Feng thought about it for a long time, but since he still could not find an answer, he could only temporarily suppress the matter for now.
