--- Chapter 124 ---
The rumor of Soul-Recovering Medicine started to appear in the Central Plains. A medicine that could completely recover one's soul and spirit when used, something that even Half-Saint Experts wanted.
Even though no one knows who started this rumor, some people confirmed its validity and discovered an auction house held by the Heavenly Gathering Clan.
Heavenly Gathering Clan is the branch of the well-known Heavenly Slaying Sect, making the negative rumor disappear. This sect wasn't part of the major factions but had enough reputation and power to enter the top thirty.
Even then, many people immediately dug for more information.
But they couldn't find anything.
The medicine appeared and was "mysteriously." stored in the Heavenly Gathering Clan. Of course, when higher power asked the origin of such a powerful thing, the Heavenly Gathering Clan told them it came from a Secret Realm.
As for where does the Secret Realm locate, no one knows.
There are so many Secret Realms in this world. Eight Ancient Clans and other powerful factions have them, so it's not weird for Heavenly Gathering Clan to have one.
After the Acting Leader of the Black-Corner Region received an order to spread information about Soul Recovery Medicine, he circulated his subordinates and began amassing rumors.
One mouth to another, the rumor formed into a cluster mess of spiderwebs.
That cunning old fox launched Baek Ain's 1st scheme and fanned information with the power of the Black Corner Region's Intelligence, causing a storm in the Central Plains in just two weeks.
The scheme is so deep that people who plunge their feet into the matter can't do anything about it. So, they couldn't possibly trace everything back to the Black-Corner Region.
The second scheme is to use a decently strong but neutral faction in the Central Plains. Yao Ming used the 10th Party Organization to transfer the Soul Recovering medicine, which cut off the connection between the Heavenly Gathering Clan and Black Corner Region.
That's ten layers of a puzzle coupled with complex traps and diversions.
The third scheme is to bait Xiao Yan. And If possible, Baek Ain also wanted the person who supported him or the Irregular to come out.
Baek Ain knew his plan wasn't perfect. After all, He doesn't know just how powerful Xiao Yan's Ally(the Irregular) was.
But here is where Xiao Yan's big mouth comes in handy.
It's unreliable, but Baek Ain believed Xiao Yan would start or jump into a problem because he was the protagonist of this world. Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
There would be hundreds, if not more, factions in the incoming auction for the Soul Recovering Medicine. The more, the merrier.
The suspicion will get drawn to the seemingly background-less young man who bid against powerhouses of Central Plains. At the end of the auction, Xiao Yan will make a lot of enemies. A Lot of Enemies!
Baek Ain let out a helpless laugh because his training was "actually." used by Cai Lin as Refining Chance. As a refiner master herself, she wants to create magical artifacts and weapons.
It's understandable.
Cai Lin has been fighting with bare hands all this time.
So, in the following four hours, Baek Ain cultivated the Record of Burning World and allowed Cai Lin to finish her artifact.
"Done~!" Cai Lin excitedly yelled. There are six hairpins before his eyes, shining with dim lights. Each represented the color of rainbows, except for the red color.
Red is Cai Lin's favorite color. And Baek Ain created an artifact with such color and matched it with her six hairpins. Now it was a complete set.
Baek Ain walked out of the furnace and jumped to the top, pulling a red hairpin with a snake carving. "Here, as I promised." He said with a smile.
Cai Lin was delighted as she dropped her blood into the six other hairpins and handed them to Baek Ain.
Baek Ain waved his hand and created a spiritual connection between the artifacts and Cai Lin, pushing them to Half-Saint Artifacts. This set of hairpins' worth alone is similar to a kingdom in the Central Plains.
The amount of treasures used is just that much.
Ancient Refiner is not a cheap profession.

[Description: A Half-Saint Weapon created by using tons of resources and the divine flame of Myriad Behemoth Sage Physique's Wielder, inheriting the later ability to control five elements, albeit way more inferior. Seven-Colored Serpent Hair Pins also possessed Mystical Abilities that have yet to get revealed]
"Put them on my hair." Cai Lin demanded with pouting lips.
Baek Ain chuckled and styled Cai Lin's silky black hair, placing the seven hairpins like peacock tails. Her beauty enhanced even more.
Looking at his masterful creation, Baek Ain nodded in satisfaction.
"Let's visit the Beast Tribes tomorrow."
"We have been staying in the Black-Corner Region for two weeks. That's one month in Behemoth Paradise, so Yafei and Yi Xian are probably mad at me."
Cai Lin hugged Baek Ain's arm and replied, "Okay."
Lan Rou appeared a minute later, bringing them the news that the auction in the Heavenly Gathering Clan had started.
Baek Ain glanced at the vast horizon as he had sent several Fire Shadow's Envoys to observe the auction. Things are going to become bloody soon in the Central Plains.
