Alchemy & Martial Supreme

Even if they found out, they would be jealous.    

Apart from jealousy, what else could they do?    

Besides, Si Kudai had given the order that as long as they could capture the spirits, they would be rewarded handsomely.    

The hero spirit was killed by Lord Hong Yuanliang, and the hero spirit energy was absorbed by Lord Hong Yuanliang, but the rewards would still be given.    

Therefore, they felt that they didn't lose anything.    

"That's right. Lord Hong Yuanliang has indeed absorbed the energy of five thousand Divine Beast Realm heroic spirits!" A trusted subordinate of Hong Yuanliang said with his head held high.    

Another trusted aide said, "What's wrong? This is what Si Koutai ordered Lord Hong Yuanliang to absorb. Lord Hong Yuanliang is about to break through to Half-Zhizun!"    

"You guys don't have to be envious of Lord Hong Yuanliang having such fortune either. Who asked your martial strength to be so weak?"    

"Even if I give you all the hero spirit energy, can you break through to Half-Zhizun?"    

"Furthermore, even if the hero spirit energy is absorbed by Lord Hong Yuanliang, Lord Si Koutai's rewards will still be given to you. It's not like you have suffered any losses!"    

Hearing the words of his trusted subordinates, the Poison Demon looked suspiciously at Hong Yuanliang.    

Hong Yuanliang's heart moved, and he held his head high with confidence in his eyes.    

Such a calm display made the surrounding Poison Demon less suspicious.    

Of course, not all of the Poison Demon City believed this.    

Some people felt that Si Kude was selfish and couldn't be so generous.    

On top of that, Si Kude didn't give the energy to anyone else after mastering his own power of laws. He absorbed it himself.    

Why did he suddenly change his mind?    

Most importantly, even if Si Koudai wanted to cultivate Hong Yuanliang, he could just say it.    

Why did he secretly cultivate Hong Yuanliang?    

Hong Yuanliang was Si Koudai's trusted aide, and Si Koudai's status was high. There was no need for him to hide anything.    

Therefore, it was very likely that Hong Yuanliang was lying.    

Seeing the suspicion on the Poison Demon's face, Hong Yuanliang knew that he couldn't convince everyone.    

He thought for a moment before saying loudly, "I, Hong Yuanliang, am about to break through to the half-step Sovereign level."    

"I can already see my current strength. Breaking through to the half-step Supreme Realm is a good thing for the entire Poison Demon Family."    

"Furthermore, if I break through to the half-step Supreme Realm, there will be two half-step Supreme Realm experts in the maze palace."    

"Although Qin Ming is strong, he is definitely not a match for me and Lord Si Koudai!"    

The surrounding Poison Demon City nodded in agreement.    

Hong Yuanliang was right. If his martial arts strength had really reached the level of a Half-Zhizun, then it would be much easier to deal with Qin Ming.    

He might even be able to kill Qin Ming even if he didn't open up all the passages in the maze.    

However, they were still worried about their rewards.    

The most important thing was that no one felt that the probability of Hong Yuanliang's martial arts strength breaking through to the half-step supreme level was very high.    

There were many geniuses in the family, and many of them set half-step Sovereign as their goal.    

However, very few were able to break through in the end.    

Even if they were lucky enough to try, they might fail.    

Furthermore, once one failed to break through to the half-step Sovereign level, there was no chance of survival.    

If Hong Yuanliang had absorbed the hero spirit energy on his own and wasn't ordered by Lord Si Koutai, then they wouldn't be able to get anything after capturing so many heroes.
