"This... the Three Thousand Yan Flame has been subdued?!"
Seeing this sudden movement, everyone was greatly surprised.
Their first reaction was that the Three Thousand Yan Flame was about to go berserk.
But when they saw the power of the Three Thousand Yan Flame continuously pouring into Xiao Li's body, they realized that something was not right.
This wasn't the berserk state of an exotic flame; it was Xiao Li subduing the Three Thousand Yan Flame!
The massive fire dragon rapidly contracted, eventually being completely absorbed into Xiao Li's body.
The scorching aura almost instantly vanished without a trace.
Xiao Li turned around, opened his eyes, and there was a hint of indifference in his gaze.
His aura had undergone a subtle change, becoming more profound and unfathomable.
But one thing was certain—he had subdued the Three Thousand Yan Flame!
"Second Brother, how is it?"
Xiao Yan and the others quickly gathered around him.
Xiao Li showed a hint of a smile, then extended his hand, and a ball of purplish-black flame rose from his palm.
"The Three Thousand Yan Flame, I've got it."
"Congratulations!"
Everyone offered their congratulations.
Xiao Li actually managed to subdue the Three Thousand Yan Flame, which was an eye-opener for them.
Although some people were a bit regretful—like Old Monster Qing Hua.
His long-cherished wish was to subdue an exotic flame.
Now he had finally come before the Three Thousand Yan Flame, but before he could personally experience its power, it was taken away by someone else.
But Old Monster Qing Hua only felt a bit of regret in his heart.
Because he knew that even if he tried to subdue the Three Thousand Yan Flame himself, the outcome would only be a harsh rejection.
He didn't have the ability to tame a flame that even the Pill Tower Three Giants couldn't.
"Young Master Xiao Li is indeed extraordinary, I admire him," Qiu Ling praised.
As a Grand Elder of the Pill Tower, he understood the terrifying aspects of the Three Thousand Yan Flame very well.
In the past, all the elders of their Pill Tower had tried to subdue the Three Thousand Yan Flame, but all had failed.
Many elders even suffered considerable injuries during the process of subduing the exotic flame.
It could be said that the Three Thousand Yan Flame was a terrifying existence in the hearts of these Pill Tower elders.
Now, Xiao Li had successfully subdued the Three Thousand Yan Flame, which was also a good thing for the Pill Tower... The group left the Star Region and returned to the outside world.
Xuan Kongzi and the other two were already waiting for them.
Seeing them emerge, Xuan Kongzi chuckled.
"Who subdued the Three Thousand Yan Flame?"
The Star Region itself was jointly constructed by the three of them, and they were very clear about the situation inside.
The moment the Three Thousand Yan Flame disappeared, they knew about it instantly.
"It was Young Master Xiao Li," Qiu Ling said.
"Indeed, I didn't misjudge Young Master Xiao Li," Xuan Kongzi chuckled.
"President Xuan is too kind. I merely had a bit of luck," Xiao Li remained humble.
"Hahaha, Young Master Xiao Li, there's no need to be modest. This is not something that can be achieved by mere luck."
"Still, congratulations, Young Master Xiao, on successfully subduing the Three Thousand Yan Flame."
"Thank you."
With the Three Thousand Yan Flame subdued, it truly marked the complete end of all matters concerning this year's Pill Gathering.
Xiao Li obtained the Three Thousand Yan Flame, and the Pill Tower had one less potential huge threat.
It was a win-win situation, with no one losing out.
After everything concluded, everyone departed... Back at the Ye Family, Xiao Li immediately shared the good news of his successful subjugation of the Three Thousand Yan Flame with Zi Yan and Ye Xinlan.
Both women were very happy.
Especially Zi Yan, who even sounded a bit haughty: "I knew that with the Dragon Seal I brought, you wouldn't have any problems subduing the Three Thousand Yan Flame."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's all your credit," Xiao Li said with a smile.
If it weren't for Zi Yan bringing the Ancient Dragon's blood, he might not have been able to subdue the Three Thousand Yan Flame so easily.
"So, how are you going to repay me?" Zi Yan pursed her thin lips, a hint of temptation in her brows.
This girl... she really has developed a taste for it.
It might also be that the Dragon race inherently has higher desires.
Zi Yan's stamina was even stronger than Medusa's, making her the strongest among all the women around Xiao Li at the moment.
No one could compare to her.
Of course, Xiao Li wasn't complaining.
Though Zi Yan was strong, he was stronger!
So, for the next few days, Xiao Li stayed at the Ye Family manor, spending time intimately with Zi Yan and Ye Xinlan.
Initially, they took turns.
Later, at Xiao Li's urging, they finally agreed to be together...
[Ding! Ye Xinlan has successfully conceived!]
[Reward: Heaven Tier High-Grade Dou Skill, Heaven and Earth Nirvana Spear!]
...As the Pill Gathering concluded, Holy Pill City gradually quieted down from its initial bustling splendor.
However, compared to Holy Pill City's usual state, it was still much livelier.
After all, many people had traveled thousands of miles from distant places, and having finally come to Holy Pill City once, even after the Pill Gathering ended, they wanted to stroll around and experience the local customs and traditions of Holy Pill City.
Xiao Li's original plan was also to leave Holy Pill City.
However, before he had time to prepare to leave, someone delivered an invitation—an invitation from the Dan Family.
The content of the invitation was very simple: they had something to discuss and wanted to invite Xiao Li to be a guest at the Dan Family.
"The Dan Family invited me as a guest... but they didn't say what it was about."
Xiao Li actually didn't have much contact with the Dan Family.
His only contact with the Dan Family was Dan Chen.
But the signature on the invitation was from the Dan Family head, not Dan Chen.
This made Xiao Li a bit curious: what could the Dan Family want from him?
With his doubts, he still went to the Dan Family alone... The Five Great Families of the Pill Tower were not all in Holy Pill City; some were near, some far.
The Dan Family was the closest to Holy Pill City, located in 'Dan City' fifty li away.
As the second strongest family among the Five Great Families, the Dan Family's influence was still very powerful.
Coupled with this Pill Gathering, Dan Chen successfully refined an eighth-grade medicinal pill, gaining fame far and wide, which would further elevate the Dan Family's reputation.
After all, an Alchemist capable of refining an eighth-grade medicinal pill, regardless of the faction, is an existence that needs to be treated with respect, or even flattered.
Xiao Li arrived alone in Dan City and walked towards the Dan Family in the city center.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" the guard at the entrance said.
Although Xiao Li had won the championship and gained widespread fame,
Many people had only heard his name but didn't know what he looked like.
"I am Xiao Li, invited by your Dan Family head to visit," Xiao Li said.
"So it's Young Master Xiao, please forgive my disrespect!" The guard quickly bowed his head and apologized.
"I will go inform the family head immediately."
"Hmm, go ahead."
The guard hurried inside.
Soon, he came out and respectfully said to Xiao Li,
"Young Master Xiao, please follow me."
Xiao Li nodded and followed the guard into the Dan Family.
Soon, they arrived at the Dan Family main hall.
Many people were already waiting for him at the entrance.
"Young Master Xiao, welcome!"
