Mu Can had heard that the leader had a formidable wife, but only today did he witness it. The woman before him had such an overwhelming presence that even though she was treating Mu Can gently now, he could still feel the pressure. Upon hearing the woman’s question, Mu Can had no choice but to tell her his plan in detail. After listening to Mu Can’s explanation, the woman thought carefully and said, “That’s a decent plan. How did you come up with it?” The Dragon Clan had always been known for their righteousness, and had never before encountered such a overpowering enemy, so where would they learn such schemes. Scratching his head awkwardly, Mu Can said, “I just stumbled upon it. Since these opponents aren’t very intelligent, why can’t we use wisdom to beat them? Wisdom is also a form of strength.” What Mu Can actually wanted to say was, “If I don’t complete the task in ten days, I’ll be eradicated; what do I care about tactics then.” “It’s good that you can have such a change, but remember, before absolute power, all strategies are useless. Don’t let this affect your cultivation,” the woman said patiently. She was worried that this matter would impact Mu Can’s cultivation. Even for the Dragon Clan, on the path of cultivation, there could be no compromise. “I understand,” Mu Can nodded earnestly, comprehending the woman’s words. “Alright, go get ready. You come with me,” the woman arranged for Mu Can to prepare the Drunk Dragon Grass, then gave the leader a look, signaling for him to follow her. Everyone seemed to find this scene unsurprising; the woman had established great authority among these dragons, and moreover, the fact that the leader was afraid of his wife was not news. “Brother Xiao Hei, let me help you pick the Drunk Dragon Grass,” a little girl about six or seven years old said, bouncing over to Mu Can’s side. It was the leader’s youngest daughter, with a pleasant name, Long Yiyun. She should have been a princess in Dragon City, high above others, but due to the invasion of foreign races, she had to hide here with her clanspeople. “Sure,” Mu Can said affectionately, pinching the little girl’s face, but his heart was filled with sorrow. What on earth happened to the Dragon Clan that such an adorable little girl had to leave her home to hide in the Immortal World? Even knowing that this was an illusion, a trial, Mu Can had already deeply identified himself as a member of the Dragon Clan. Many hands make light work, and soon, a hundred portions of Drunk Dragon Grass were gathered. Staring at the large bundle of Drunk Dragon Grass, Mu Can pondered seriously. Purple Cloud had only mentioned the Drunk Dragon Grass but hadn’t told him how to use it. “What’s wrong, Xiao Hei?” seeing Mu Can in deep thought, Xiao Hong asked. Looking at the large bundle of Drunk Dragon Grass, Xiao Hong’s mouth was practically watering; such a large bundle could be processed into hundreds of barrels of alcohol. “Do we have a Medicine Cauldron here?” Mu Can decided it was still best to purify the Drunk Dragon Grass before using it. “A cauldron? What do you need that for? You’re going to make elixirs?” Xiao Hong asked in confusion, thinking that the Drunk Dragon Grass should just be shredded and mixed into food. “Yes, the Drunk Dragon Grass needs to be processed a bit, otherwise I don’t think they will eat it,” Mu Can mused, thinking about the red Giant he had seen today, feeling that this ancient red Giant was different from the rest. “We do have a Medicine Cauldron indeed, Xiao Bai, take out grandpa’s cauldron,” Xiao Hong called out to Xiao Bai upon seeing this. In no time, a dark, tarnished Medicine Cauldron was placed before Mu Can. After pondering for a moment, Mu Can started to move his hands; this was his first attempt at alchemy, and it was an elixir he had never seen before. “Have you thought about it? When exactly are we going to leave this place?” The middle-aged woman brought the leader to a secluded spot and directly cut to the chase. “There’s a part of the Dragon Clan’s heritage left in Dragon City, and I want to retrieve it before we go,” the leader said painfully, the departure being discussed as early as a year ago. Leaving the Dragon Realm, entering a new realm, giving up one’s original homeland. But the leader felt a profound reluctance in his heart. Who would wish to leave behind a life of peace and happiness? “Then let me ask you, what’s more important, the people or the heritage? As long as our people are alive, we can always return here one day. In this past year, too many have died. I don’t want to live in fear every day worrying about you all,” the woman said gently, holding the leader in a caring embrace. The harrowing days of the past year had been too much for her to bear. “I know, but I really can’t accept this,” the leader said in agony, grasping his head. “No matter what, it was during my watch that Dragon City was taken from us. I don’t want to be the sinner of the Dragon Clan,” the leader expressed with immense pain across his face. The woman looked at the leader with pity and gently caressed his rugged face. “I know you’re in pain. You say you’re the sinner, but aren’t others here just as guilty? However, in my eyes, if the Dragon Clan perishes under your leadership, then you’d truly be the sinner. Preserve the lifeline of the Dragon Clan. One day, we will return here, let’s go to the Immortal World,” the woman whispered into the leader’s ear. As if having made a significant decision, the leader lifted his head gently to look at his wife, who gazed back with anticipation, as though he had used up all his strength. “Alright, we’ll leave this place.” After the two discussed, they decided to leave Dragon Realm only after Mu Can’s plan was implemented and have one last look at Dragon City. Seeing her determined husband, the middle-aged woman wanted to dissuade him but chose not to speak, knowing that persuasion would not change anything in this matter. After failing twice in a row, Mu Can wasted two Drunk Dragon Grasses and stopped to contemplate what had gone wrong. “Alchemy is really about the fusion of energies. Maybe purification is the cleansing of energy,” Mu Can recalled Purple Cloud’s explanation, a sudden thought striking him. With this realization, as if a gate to a new world had opened, Mu Can threw another Drunk Dragon Grass into the Medicine Cauldron, letting Xiao Hong ignite the fire to heat it, while he controlled the Drunk Dragon Grass within. Under high temperature, the Drunk Dragon Grass was reduced to its energy form. With his Soul Power, Mu Can gently removed all impurities from within the energy. Leaving only the most quintessential part. “It worked, I was right after all,” the lid lifted, revealing a perfectly round elixir lying quietly in the cauldron, Mu Can smiled in joy. “Wow, Xiao Hei, not bad, you can even do alchemy now. But does this thing taste like drinking alcohol?” Xiao Hong extinguished the flame and gently put an arm around Mu Can’s shoulder, teasing. “If you dare to sneak a taste, I’ll punish you with half a year of confinement,” the leader coldly stated upon walking in. “Ah, I was just asking, I won’t sneak any, I won’t,” Xiao Hong immediately pleaded in a pitiful tone, shaking his head upon hearing the consequences of indulgence.
