Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 779

Chapter 779: Chapter 782: Rise of the Blood Refiner

Before long, the mansion guard dispatched to investigate Military Physician Mo returned to report. "General, as soon as he left the Prince’s Mansion, he met with those physicians. Physician Mo paid each of them a gold ingot, demanding they keep their mouths sealed."

Ling Tian nodded, his eyes turning grim. "Heh, he’s just a military physician. Where would he get that much gold? It seems the Azure Empire has been investigating the Xiuyuan Realm and bribed Military Physician Mo to poison me. But they didn’t expect my sudden weight gain. He must have figured he didn’t need to poison me anymore and could just use my condition as his excuse to make a move."

"General, how should we deal with him?" the mansion guard asked.

"Kill him," Ling Tian stated sharply.

Mercy does not command an army. The single word left his lips without changing his expression in the slightest.

"Yes, sir." The guard immediately departed to deal with Military Physician Mo.

The other mansion guard, the one sent to investigate the Blood Refiners Guild, had also returned.

"What did you find?"

"Reporting to the General, it is true that someone has created the genuine Art of Blood Refinement and become the Ancestor of Blood Refinement. However, I was unable to determine this person’s identity," the guard earnestly reported.

"The Art of Blood Refinement... is complete?"

THUD. Ling Tian shot up from his chair in astonishment. He exclaimed with great emotion, "The Blood Refiners have finally succeeded! The one who created the Art of Blood Refinement must be a master of their generation. I may not become a Blood Refiner myself, but I must become his disciple."

Seeing that General Ling Tian had made his decision, the guards all nodded in agreement.

"An excellent idea, General!"

"The old master who created the Art of Blood Refinement must be a man of both great virtue and skill."

"Yes, becoming a disciple of the old master is far better than joining Wu Tian’s sect!"

The guards naturally pictured the creator of the Art of Blood Refinement as a venerable old man. They imagined a white-haired elder who had dedicated his entire life to his research, finally achieving a breakthrough. How could such a person not command respect?

"Let’s go now." A man of his word, Ling Tian immediately led his men from the Prince’s Mansion. They were heading to the Blood Refiners Guild to pay their respects to the "Ancestor of Blood Refinement!"

「」

As Wu Tian left the Prince’s Mansion, he was perplexed. He hadn’t expected the venomous jellyfish to be completely absent. In fact, it had likely never been there at all, as there was no scent of it in the mansion.

Where could it have gone?

Wu Tian shook his head. With nothing else to do, he put on his bronze mask and headed for the courtyard where Bo Gu and Meng Tian were already waiting.

"Ancestor, we’ve completed the tasks you assigned us," Bo Gu and Meng Tian said respectfully as Wu Tian arrived.

Wu Tian smiled faintly. "You’ve done well. Our first customer will be arriving soon. I want you to go out and send them away. Tell them I’m not available."

"What?" Hearing this, Bo Gu and Meng Tian stared at him, completely perplexed. A customer is already on their way? And the Ancestor wants us to turn them away? They found it utterly bizarre and could only furrow their brows in thought.

"I understand! I get it," Bo Gu suddenly exclaimed. "The first customer must be poor. We Blood Refiners aren’t a charity. We have few resources ourselves, so the Guild can’t afford to refine blood for free right now."

"A beggar? A thug?" Now it was the guard’s turn to be baffled. What are these two masters talking about? I don’t understand a word. Shaking his head to clear it, the guard clarified, "The one seeking to pay a visit is the Great General, Ling Tian."

A soft cough came from the "Ancestor of Blood Refinement," who still wore his bronze mask. The sound jolted Bo Gu and Meng Tian back to their senses. Right, the Ancestor had told them to send the visitor away. Heavens, why would he ask this of us? If the Blood Refiners Guild helps Ling Tian, our reputation in the Three Realms could quickly surpass the branch guilds of the Array Masters and Alchemists.
