The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1034 - Chapter 1034 Chapter 1033 The Silver-Haired Woman

Chapter 1034: Chapter 1033: The Silver-Haired Woman Chapter 1034: Chapter 1033: The Silver-Haired Woman Three immature Golden Scale Ants trembled violently, and even though they barely managed a stance to meet their enemy, it seemed that any slight movement from the silver-haired woman would scare them into a total panic.

The man in the conical hat waved his hand, collecting the three little Golden Scale Ants into the Beast Bag, and his eyes hidden beneath the hat did not show much surprise.

The golden-haired puppy perched on his shoulder gazed at the silver-haired woman with a puzzled expression, sniffing slightly as if sensing her scent.

The corners of the silver-haired woman’s lips lifted in a scornful smile as she slowly walked up to the man in the conical hat, yet stopped ten steps away.

“You and I, we really are fated,” the silver-haired woman said with a laugh, an extremely terrifying Demon Qi emanating from her that frightened the surrounding Demon Beasts, making them cower on the ground, utterly unable to move.

However, the golden-haired puppy on Fang Lin’s shoulder was not affected at all by the Demon Qi emanating from the silver-haired woman and still looked dazed.

The black veil beneath the conical hat fluttered slightly, revealing some of the man’s features which were quite handsome and youthful.

“Did you come to see me because you want to kill me?” the man in the conical hat said calmly, speaking as if it was something trivial.

The silver-haired woman let out a chuckle, “You’re right, I do indeed want to kill you.”

No sooner had these words fallen, a clearly visible murderous intent flowed through the depths of her eyes. She took a step forward as if she were about to strike at the man in the conical hat.

Yet the man in the conical hat remained perfectly still, seemingly unfazed by the intense killing intent of the woman, as his right hand gently caressed a sapphire blue ring on his finger, and the golden-haired puppy on his shoulder barked twice at the woman.

“Hmm?” The silver-haired woman immediately noticed the sapphire blue ring on the man’s finger and displayed a wary look.

As a Demon Beast, her instincts about danger were extremely sharp. The ring in the man’s hand posed a great threat to her, causing her to dare not act rashly.

Woof, woof!!!

The golden-haired puppy barked loudly, an invisible majesty suddenly spreading out.

This majesty caused the silver-haired woman’s expression to change dramatically in an instant. Her attention shifted from the ring to the golden-haired puppy, her eyes filled with shock and horror.

“How is this possible?” she exclaimed inwardly, the two barks from the golden-haired puppy had actually made her feel fear deep in her bloodline.

This was almost unimaginable; her bloodline was almost at the very top among Demon Beasts–it should have been impossible for this to happen.

Unless, of course, the bloodline of that golden-haired puppy was even more terrifying than hers.

“Still want to attack me?” the man in the conical hat said with a faint smile.

The expression of the silver-haired woman turned cold, her aura of killing intent remained unabated, though not as overpowering as before.

“I have some unfinished business with you from before,” the silver-haired woman said coldly.

The man in the conical hat spread his hands, “I’m right here, if you want to settle the score, go ahead and make your move, but I think you would not act so rashly. That’s not your style.”

Indeed, this was not the style of the silver-haired woman. She would not engage in matters where she did not have confidence.

Whether it was the sapphire blue ring in the man’s hand or the mysterious golden-haired puppy, both posed a threat to her.

Under these circumstances, it was impossible for her to act rashly.

“You’re very brave to face me like this in the vast Nine Countries, there aren’t many who have the privilege to talk to me face to face,” the silver-haired woman said, restraining her emotion.

The man in the bamboo hat said, “It was you who suddenly appeared before me. I had no wish to speak with you, so perhaps you should leave now. I’ll pretend I never saw you and won’t tell anyone else.”

“Ask me to leave? Do you know what will happen here?” the silver-haired woman said with a smile.

The man in the bamboo hat gave a hmm and asked, “Is there something in this Chaos Demon Valley that interests you? Or perhaps, you plan to repeat your old tricks, agitating the Demon Beasts here to serve you, and then break out of the Chaos Demon Valley, causing ruin to countless lives?”

“Don’t say I didn’t warn you. This place is not Hundred Beast Mountain. If you dare stir up a Demon Beast revolt here, the Qing Nation can immediately dispatch troops to suppress it. Whether you can escape then is still uncertain,” the man in the bamboo hat said mockingly.

The silver-haired woman sneered, “The Demon Beasts of this place aren’t worth my personal attention. Looking at you, it seems you’re unaware of the secrets here.”

Upon hearing this, the man in the bamboo hat remained silent, his visit here indeed ignorant of what had actually occurred in the valley.

“Heh, I won’t strike you, but as for others here, I can’t say the same. I hope your death won’t be too miserable,” the silver-haired woman said, then her figure suddenly vanished, leaving only a dense Demon Qi lingering for a long time.

The man in the bamboo hat took a deep breath, his face under the hat turning quite grave.

“Come out,” he said indifferently, suddenly looking in another direction.

A figure slowly walked out.

It was a man wearing a mask, dressed in black, emitting an aura as cold as the invisible assassin that lurks in the shadows, chilling to the bone.

“You came as well.” The man in the bamboo hat showed no surprise.

The masked man, his voice raspy, said, “The Fire King has personally come.”

Those simple words caused the man in the bamboo hat’s expression to change, a deeper worry appearing in his eyes.

After speaking, the masked man seemed unwilling to engage further, turning around and leaving.

The golden-haired puppy on his shoulder seemed tired, yawning as the man in the bamboo hat held it in his arms, stroking its body.

The golden-haired puppy appeared very comfortable, curling up in the embrace of the man in the bamboo hat.

The man in the bamboo hat walked slowly, continuing to proceed deeper into the Chaos Demon Valley.

“Zhao, it seems that this Chaos Demon Valley is not as dangerous as we imagined,” a group from the Blue Jade Sect walked through the valley, with Zhao Shixian leading in the front, holding a longsword, looking very cautious.

“We must not be careless. We haven’t found the Cold Dew Condensation Fruit yet. Once we find this, we can leave. We shouldn’t linger,” Zhao Shixian said, keeping his guard up.

“Zhao is right. This calm is only temporary. Perhaps greater turmoil lies ahead. Once we find the Cold Dew Condensation Fruit, we can leave. We shouldn’t get greedy for more,” Yao also said.

Just then, Zhao Shixian, walking at the front, suddenly changed his expression.

“Everyone, be careful!” With a loud shout and without hesitation, Zhao Shixian swung his longsword, sending Sword Qi whistling towards something in front.

A purple Bull Demon charged forward, the Sword Qi striking its body but leaving not a single mark. Instead, it further agitated the beast’s ferocity.

“Demon King!” members of the Blue Jade Sect shouted out in alarm.
