"Elder Supreme, my subordinates have basically completed the tasks." Zhan Se said with a nod and a bow.
"Completed? What does that mean?" Tan Yun asked.
Zhan Se replied honestly, "Elder Supreme, first of all, my subordinates have tried every possible method and gathered one hundred and ten trillion Supreme Ancestor Stones, which is one hundred thousand more than what you requested."
“Second, through various channels, we found thirty kinds of fire attribute fire seeds and thirty kinds of ice attribute fire seeds, all of which are supreme.”
“Among them, there are ten kinds of dao god level fire and ice attribute fire seeds each.”
“For dao king level, there are ten kinds of each attribute.”
“For dao emperor level, there are five kinds of supreme fire seeds for each attribute.”
“For dao sovereign level, there are five kinds of supreme fire seeds for each attribute…”
Before Zhan Se could finish, Tan Yun's eyes revealed an uncontrollable excitement, “What did you say? Not only are there dao emperor level fire seeds, but also dao sovereign level fire seeds?”
“Yes, Elder Supreme.” Zhan Se patted his chest to assure him.
“Good, very good!” Tan Yun laughed heartily. With these fire seeds, the primordial flame and primordial ice flame could continuously advance, greatly increasing their power. Zhan Se smiled and said, “Elder Supreme, third, the eleven different properties of refining materials you requested, as well as one containing the power of the five elements, one containing wind and thunder, one containing time and space, one for death, and one for light, have all been prepared for you.”
“In total, there are sixteen kinds!”
Tan Yun nodded, “Not bad, very good!”
Zhan Se continued, “Fourth, we couldn’t find the Memory Ancestor Liquid you asked us to search for, but we have heard some news about it.”
“I hope Elder Supreme will forgive us for our hard work in searching for refining materials, fire seeds, and gathering Supreme Ancestor Stones.”
Tan Yun pondered for a moment, “Alright, I can agree to that. However, where is the Memory Ancestor Liquid? Is the news reliable?”
Zhan Se said, “Elder Supreme, according to various inquiries, three hundred years ago, the current crown prince of the Eastern Continent Ancestral Dynasty, which is our sovereign’s nephew: Yuwen Lieyun, obtained three drops of Memory Ancestor Liquid from an unknown source.”
“I am willing to guarantee with my life that this information is absolutely true.”
Hearing this, Tan Yun nodded, “Fine, then I’ll tentatively trust you.”
“Hand over the fire seeds, refining materials, and Ancestor Stones to me. From now on, I will no longer make things difficult for you.”
Upon hearing this, the elders and stewards secretly breathed a sigh of relief, all expressing their gratitude to Tan Yun.
Afterward, Tan Yun accepted the Supreme Ancestor Stones, refining materials, and fire seeds of two properties from the senior members of the Inner Sect.
After obtaining these, Tan Yun's excitement was beyond imagination.
Tan Yun took a deep breath and said, “Now, let’s discuss serious matters. The sovereign has ordered me, Elder Supreme, to find the murderer within seven days, but today is already the fourth day, and there is still not a single clue.”
“Just yesterday, someone told me…” Tan Yun paused, extending a finger to point at a middle-aged man with a mustache in the hall, saying, “You stay, the rest can disperse.”
This man was none other than Qin Feng, who had been controlled by Tan Yun’s primordial divine eye a few days ago. At that time, Tan Yun had instructed him to inform Fu Chaqiu to come to Treasure Mountain to find Elder Three.
Then, he had intercepted Fu Chaqiu halfway.
Qin Feng respectfully said, “May I ask, Elder Supreme, what do you require of me?”
“What do I require? Don’t you already know?” Tan Yun said, “Someone saw you go to find the twelfth young master a few days ago in the dead of night, and that very night, the twelfth young master died.”
