“Abel, I don’t want to hear these clichés. If you don’t want to give me the list, I’ll take matters into my own hands and root out those werewolves one by one! But of course, if I kill the wrong person, don’t blame me!” Leo said, then hung up the phone without waiting for a response.
Abel on the other end of the line let out a bitter smile, thinking that Leo was truly someone who couldn’t afford to lose.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Abel sighed and shook his head. This brat actually hung up on his call without hesitation! Although Abel was only a department head, as the head of WONDER, his words sometimes carried more weight than those of deputy government officials. Many people wished to have a longer conversation with him, but they never got the chance. No one dared to hang up his call so casually.
Abel was angry, but he couldn’t do anything about Leo.
Ever since Leo killed the Black Poison King, Abel had started to regard him even more highly.
When Abel made the call to Leo, Thunder Dragon and Fire Rose were present, so they heard the conversation between the two.
“Does Leo really want to take action against the werewolves in Atraria?” Thunder Dragon hadn’t fully recovered from his surprise.
“I know Leo’s personality. He always follows through with what he says. Should we give him the list?” Fire Rose asked.
WONDER was responsible for the security of the non-secular world, both domestically and internationally. Naturally, they had control over the werewolves entering and leaving Atraria.
Abel pondered for a moment, a sly smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He said, “To prevent him from causing an irreparable mess, we should give him the list, but not the entire list.”
Thunder Dragon and Fire Rose instantly understood Abel’s intention when they saw his sly smile.
“We must control the impact within a manageable range. We’ll give him the list of werewolves involved in espionage and illegal activities within the country. Let him vent his anger. As for the consequences, I’ll take the blame for him.”
“Yes,” Thunder Dragon nodded solemnly.
The leader was indeed the leader. This move of using someone else to do the dirty work was just right.
It would allow Leo to vent his frustration and serve as a warning to those werewolves with malicious intentions, making them understand that they must behave while in Atraria.
Fire Rose couldn’t help but interject, “The werewolves have been growing too powerful recently. The Franke government has always wanted to weaken their clan. Even if the werewolves are completely wiped out in our country, the Franke government probably won’t take any action.”
Abel smiled and nodded at Fire Rose’s words, a cunning expression appearing on his face.
Being able to use Leo to their advantage once again made Abel feel quite satisfied.
However, Abel didn’t consider one question: Would Leo really do as he had envisioned?
After hanging up the call with Abel, Leo’s gaze once again fell on the pitiful disciples lying on the ground, and his mood became heavy.
“Burn the bodies of the werewolves and give a proper burial to the disciples of the sect. Take care of the aftermath,” Leo instructed.
“Yes, Honorable Sect Master,” a leading elite disciple responded loudly.
Next, Leo explained to Jennifer and Ellis the methods to strengthen the defense of the Seven Stars Sword Sect. He planned to use Spirit Jade and set up a killing formation.
Leo acted swiftly. After the scene was cleaned up, he first set up a killing formation under Spirit Crocodile Cliff, then another trapping formation in the martial training square of the Seven Stars Sword Sect.
Once the formations were set up in both locations, Leo had lunch and then returned to Spirit Crocodile Cliff.
He was now ready to start refining the Great Vitality Pill.
Although the Great Vitality Pill only had an additional “Great” in its name compared to the Vitality Pill, its effects were ten times stronger.
Once Leo successfully refined the Great Vitality Pill, he would attempt to break through to the Intermediate Spirit General Realm.
Looking at the lush and vibrant Spirit Grass growing in the cultivation area, Leo could tell that it had matured.
This was mainly due to Leo using Spirit Stone powder as fertilizer.
Without hesitation, Leo harvested over two thousand Spirit Grass plants and stored them in his spatial storage pouch.
After harvesting the Spirit Grass, Leo brought over the remaining Spirit Grass seeds from the nearby wooden house and scattered them in the fertile Spirit Field.
It wouldn’t take long for the Spirit Grass seeds to take root and sprout.
Leo went to another Spirit Field where Spirit Stone powder was applied. Here, the Blood Red Grass was planted.
Just like the Vitality Grass, Leo had bought the seeds of Blood Red Grass during his last visit to the Eastern Town.
The growth of the Blood Red Grass was vigorous, and with a rough estimate, there were probably over a thousand plants.
A gentle breeze blew, causing the Blood Red Grass to sway lightly, emitting a faint red glow that attracted the gathering of spiritual energy from the heavens and earth.
After harvesting the Blood Red Grass, Leo moved on to the next Spirit Field.
In this field, there were no spirit herbs, only a small seedling breaking through the soil.
Upon seeing the seedling, Leo immediately showed a joyful expression.
“The seed of the Gathering Spirit Tree has finally sprouted. It seems that the Gathering Formation I set up under Spirit Crocodile Cliff had a good effect,” Leo said to himself.
From the current situation, it would take at most two or three years for the seed of the Gathering Spirit Tree to grow into a sapling.
Although Leo didn’t expect the Gathering Spirit Tree to bloom and bear fruit in his lifetime, the leaves of the tree could be used to refine pills and shorten the time for condensing pure Spiritual Power.
After inspecting the sapling of the Gathering Spirit Tree, Leo returned to the wooden house, ready to refine the Great Vitality Pill.
First, Leo used Spirit Jade to create a cushion and inscribed a mini Clear Mind Formation on it to assist in calming and concentrating his mind.
Then, Leo sat cross-legged on the Spirit Jade cushion and summoned the Profound Heaven Eight Trigram Pill Furnace from his spatial storage pouch.
As usual, the pill furnace rapidly enlarged in front of Leo until it reached its normal size for pill refinement.
To refine the Great Vitality Pill, Leo needed one main herb and two auxiliary herbs. The main herb was Vitality Grass, while the auxiliary herbs were Blood Red Grass and Silver Moon Flower.
The Silver Moon Flower was needed in small quantities, and Leo had already obtained some from the medicine storeroom of the Seven Stars Sword Sect.
Compared to refining the Vitality Pill, refining the Great Vitality Pill was more complex and difficult, but for the current Leo, successfully refining it was not a problem.
Leo took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and his gaze became calm and serene.
He formed a hand seal with his right hand, and a stream of Spiritual Power flowed into the pill furnace, causing the lid of the furnace to automatically float up.
With a wave of his left hand, the Vitality Grass, Blood Red Grass, and Silver Moon Flower entered the pill furnace one after another.
This time, Leo used two hundred plants of Vitality Grass. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to refine seven or eight Great Vitality Pills after discarding the failed pills.
Leo formed another hand seal with his right hand, aimed at the center of the pill furnace, and the Spiritual Fire within the furnace started to burn fiercely.
Then, Leo released his Divine Awareness, enveloping the Profound Heaven Eight Trigram Pill Furnace, closely monitoring the internal conditions of the furnace, and adjusting the intensity of the fire at any time.
Over an hour later, a pleased expression finally appeared on Leo’s calm face because the pills had taken shape and finished tempering within the furnace.
