The Strongest Family In The Ages

"The elixir I want to refine is the Beauty Pill."

Upon hearing the words "Beauty Pill," Li Daoxuan was extremely surprised because this kind of elixir was useless for cultivators with advanced cultivation levels.

It is well known that when one's cultivation reaches a certain level, changing one's appearance is effortless.

Furthermore, when one's cultivation becomes powerful, many cultivators no longer care about their appearance.

Why would the Ice Palace Saintess want a Beauty Pill?

There was no need to make such a big fuss about finding someone to refine the Beauty Pill, right?

As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.

Li Daoxuan was very curious about what the Ice Palace Saintess looked like.

Could it be that she was so ugly that she didn't dare to show herself and used magic to transform into an icy appearance?

Li Daoxuan turned his head to observe the Ice Palace Saintess. His Illusion-Breaking Golden Eyes unconsciously activated, and then Li Daoxuan saw an extremely ugly face.

Ahem!

This face was not beautiful, but rather extremely ugly.

Li Daoxuan regretted it. He wanted to wash his eyes because he was afraid that he would have nightmares and be awakened.

At this moment, Li Daoxuan's belief collapsed!

The Ice Palace Saintess, with her own strength, shattered all of Li Daoxuan's beautiful fantasies about a "saintess."

The Ice Palace Saintess trembled all over. At this moment, she felt as if she were standing naked in front of Li Daoxuan, and when she looked into Li Daoxuan's eyes, the light in them dimmed.

"Li Daoxuan, what... what did you see?" The Ice Palace Saintess said, turning her back to Li Daoxuan with a "shy" expression.

At this moment, Li Daoxuan almost vomited.

"I... I have a stomachache! I need to go to the toilet!" Li Daoxuan's words confused the Ice Palace Saintess.

"Can you refine the Beauty Pill?"

The Ice Palace Saintess asked her most concerned question again.

Li Daoxuan's tone was urgent, "Yes! Put down the medicinal materials and leave immediately."

The Ice Palace Saintess was about to turn around, but Li Daoxuan quickly stopped her, shouting desperately, "Don't move! Speak quickly! I can't wait to start refining the elixir."

"Don't be in such a hurry! I still have some other pills that need to be refined."

"Speak! Say it all at once!"

"Soul Corroding Pill, Heart Demon Pill, Soul Separation Pill, Venomous Snake Devouring Heart Pill, Desire Soul Pill..."

Li Daoxuan looked at the Ice Palace Saintess in horror. This woman was truly ruthless, confirming the saying that the most poisonous woman's heart.

These pills were all torturous.

And they were the most profound kind of torture, directly targeting the soul. Even if a cultivator at the Mahayana Stage were to take these pills, they would collapse.

For example, the Heart Demon Pill and the Desire Soul Pill could be used together. First, they would make the cultivator develop a heart demon, and then the Desire Soul Pill would stimulate the cultivator's desires to the maximum.

This would turn the cultivator into a desire demon, endlessly so.

Li Daoxuan shivered. Why did this woman want to refine these pills?

It was obvious that they were meant to torture someone, and that person was most likely... Su Youruo.

At this moment, Li Daoxuan's anger and killing intent reached its peak. If it weren't for finding Su Youruo first, Li Daoxuan would definitely slap this ugly woman to death.

The Ice Palace Saintess also noticed that Li Daoxuan's expression was off.

In order to maintain the Ice Palace Saintess's tall and "sacred" image, she explained, "I plan to go out for training recently, so I'm preparing these pills just in case."

"Leave the medicinal materials!"

"And you, get out immediately!"

"You..." The Ice Palace Saintess angrily threw down the medicinal materials and left.

Li Daoxuan took several deep breaths before calming down. However, this calmness was only on the surface. The raging anger in his heart couldn't be calmed no matter what.

He picked up the storage bag on the table and fell into contemplation.

Soon, a temporary plan took shape.

"Forget about the Beauty Pill for now, delay it."

Li Daoxuan needed to stay in the Saintess Palace for a longer period of time, and refining pills happened to give him a good excuse.

The normal speed for refining pills is about ten days to half a month, which is quite normal. It is not impossible for it to take a year or more.

Opening the storage bag, Li Daoxuan was amazed. The medicinal materials inside not only had good quality, but also had sufficient quantity.

"Truly worthy of the Ice Palace, truly worthy of the Ice Palace Saintess."

"These medicinal materials are practically cheap for me."

Pills like the Soul Corroding Pill, Heart Demon Pill, and Soul Departure Pill... Li Daoxuan had never refined these pills before, not because he didn't know how to, but because he never had the need for them, and it was difficult to gather the necessary materials.

After counting the medicinal materials, Li Daoxuan began pill refinement.

However, in order to delay time, Li Daoxuan deliberately took his time, refining at most one furnace of pills each day.

At night, the middle-aged woman came to collect the pills.

Since the Ice Palace Saintess was scolded away by Li Daoxuan, she had not appeared again.

"Here! This is the Soul Corroding Pill."

"That's it?"

"Come back tomorrow!" Li Daoxuan directly dismissed the middle-aged woman because he had more important things to do.

The four avatars sent a message, but they didn't find anything!

The Saintess Palace had searched through more than half of it, yet they found nothing.

Li Daoxuan was starting to doubt. Could it be that his speculation was wrong?

"This shouldn't be! Continue the search."

And so, one day passed... two days passed... until Li Daoxuan finished refining all the poisonous pills except for the Beauty Pill. Only then did the middle-aged woman come to collect the pills.

"There's still one type of pill that hasn't been refined. Come back in a few days."

The middle-aged woman didn't dare to ask further, and she didn't even know what kind of pills were inside.

As soon as the middle-aged woman left, Li Daoxuan immediately summoned one of his avatars, the only remaining seventh-level avatar, and kept it with him.

Li Daoxuan's figure then disappeared directly.

In these few days, all the other avatars that were sent out had returned, but they found nothing.

Li Daoxuan had a sudden inspiration and thought of a possibility.

He decided to personally take action!

He even made thorough preparations, which were these highly poisonous pills.

Why did the Ice Palace Saintess refine these pills?

Li Daoxuan speculated that they were definitely used for torturing people, most likely to torture Su Youruo.

There was still one place in the entire Saintess Palace that Li Daoxuan hadn't searched, which was the residence of the Ice Palace Saintess.

Li Daoxuan planned to secretly track this middle-aged woman, infiltrate the residence of the Ice Palace Saintess, and see if Su Youruo was hiding there.

If she wasn't...

Li Daoxuan had a backup plan.

That was to track the Ice Palace Saintess and see where she would go with these pills containing 'poison'.

The plan was extremely perfect, one could even say flawless.

The middle-aged woman arrived at a magnificent palace and knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

A voice came from inside, and Li Daoxuan could even hear a hint of excitement and anticipation in the voice.

"Saintess, the pills you wanted have been successfully refined."

"Quick, bring them here!" The Ice Palace Saintess pounced directly in front of the middle-aged woman and snatched the several small bottles from her.

"You haven't opened and checked them, right?"

The middle-aged woman quickly lowered her head. "This servant dares not!"

"Alright, you may leave."

"By the way, seal the palace gates. I will be in seclusion for a period of time, and no one is allowed to disturb me."

"Yes!"

The middle-aged woman left, and Li Daoxuan became even more puzzled.

Could it be that his speculation was wrong?
