The Sacred Leaves Family's Wishes for Peace

Now that Fang Hao held the title of Marquis Wushuang and had the Immortal Dynasty at his back, he could finally cultivate in peace in Zhen Tian City.

However, every so often, he would head out to purchase valuable items that could be sent back to the Tianyuan Realm.

Things like brand-new pill formulas, stronger cultivation methods, better weapons, and more refined formation schematics.

Thanks to these items, Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion (Wanbao Pavilion) was making an absolute fortune. Its branches were now opening across various continents, one after another.

All major factions were green with envy at Wanbao Pavilion's booming business—but they didn't dare touch it, nor harbor any sinister thoughts toward the Fang family.

After all, the Fang clan was backed by two of the Tianyuan Realm's greatest powers: the Xuantian Sacred Sect and the Ethereal Immortal Palace.

With Wanbao Pavilion raking in profits, Fang Hao naturally received a large share of the revenue, which translated to a flood of cultivation resources.

Though the sheer volume of these resources could support a whole force of Saint Realm experts, for someone like Fang Hao—whose body required extraordinary consumption—it was only just enough.

He couldn't afford to slack off. That's why he kept sourcing high-value goods worth shipping home for resale.

This time, using a vast sum of spirit stones and tapping into his personal connections, Fang Hao managed to obtain a Saint-tier pill formula—one even better than the Heavenspirit Pill.

Upon returning to the Fang family, he found Fang Ting and handed him the pill recipe with a solemn expression.

"Uncle Qingzhou, this formula is especially important. You must manage it with great care."

Even with powerful backers, if the profit was high enough, some factions might still risk everything to band together and attack the Fang family.

Fang Ting's expression grew serious. He immediately sensed the gravity of the situation.

"The Azure Sky Pill? Is this also a Saint-tier pill?"

Fang Hao nodded.

"This is a Saint-tier pill designed for Great Saint Realm cultivators."

In the Immortal Realm, it wasn't considered particularly rare. But in the Tianyuan Realm? It was priceless—something that even the top twenty overlord-level forces would kill for.

"I see!" Fang Ting now fully understood why Fang Hao had been so cautious.

After all, the Heavenspirit Pill—usable by True Saints—had already skyrocketed Wanbao Pavilion's reputation and triggered fierce competition.

The Azure Sky Pill, which could boost Great Saint Realm cultivation, was on a whole different level.

It was unlikely that the top twenty forces in the Tianyuan Realm even possessed such a formula.

If they found out about it, they'd stop at nothing to seize it—even powerful backers like Xuantian Sacred Sect and Ethereal Immortal Palace might not be enough to stop a united front.

"Refining the Azure Sky Pill requires rare and precious saint-grade herbs. They're not easy to gather. Once we do make them, there's no need to auction them," Fang Hao added.

"Understood. We'll keep them for internal use only," Fang Ting replied.

The Heavenspirit Pill wasn't easy to make either, but its ingredients were at least stable and sustainable. Since the Fang family didn't have many True Saints yet, the excess could be sold.

But the Azure Sky Pill was different—its production rate would be low, and demand among their own geniuses high. There would be none to spare.

What's more, if they were to auction off such a never-before-seen pill, people would quickly trace its origin back to the Fang clan.

Until they were strong enough and production stable, the Azure Sky Pill must remain strictly for internal use.

Fortunately, Wanbao Pavilion still had plenty of other profitable ventures, so this pill wouldn't be missed for now.

"Right—my master also gave me a few demonic beast eggs. We can send them to the Azure Dragon Mystic Realm for incubation and training."

As he spoke, Fang Hao pulled out eight grey beast eggs, each about the size of a washbasin.

Even before they hatched, Fang Ting could sense the powerful vitality within them. These beasts would not be ordinary.

"What kind of beast are they?" he asked curiously.

This was the first time Fang Hao had brought back beast eggs, so they had to be special.

"They're called Redback Dragon Beasts. They carry a trace of Yinglong bloodline. Once mature, they'll rival some of the ancient ferocious beasts from Cangzhou," Fang Hao explained.

"More importantly, they reproduce quickly and grow rapidly if well-fed and resourced."

"If we can successfully tame and breed them in large numbers, they could become the signature mounts of the Fang family—and the Great Qian Dynasty."

In the Immortal Realm, Redback Dragon Beasts were already being raised on a large scale. They were expensive, yes—but also the top choice for many major factions' ceremonial and travel needs.

Now that the Fang family had the strength, it was time to match it with proper showmanship.

If his power and finances allowed, Fang Hao would've brought back full-fledged immortal beasts instead.

Fang Ting nodded repeatedly.

"Excellent. The Fang family could really use beasts like these."

Their current mounts—like the Blue Thunder Roc—were powerful, but bred slowly. Just trying to equip every Hidden Dragon Guard with one would take who-knew-how-many years.

That's exactly why Fang Hao chose the Redback Dragon Beasts—they bred and matured much faster.

He had even purchased a specialized training manual for raising them.

Once they had enough, Fang family members riding these beasts would look incredibly impressive wherever they went.

Fang Ting summoned Fang Chu, handed him the eight beast eggs and the jade slip containing the breeding instructions.

Fang Chu, ever enthusiastic about everything from cultivation to beast-taming, winemaking, and tea-brewing, took the items and immediately returned to the Great Qian Dynasty via teleportation.

The Azure Dragon Mystic Realm couldn't be casually removed like a portable world, so he'd need to return there each time.

Fortunately, the Fang family had already established teleportation arrays between the Great Qian and the Eight Ancient Kingdoms—strictly for family use—so travel was quick and convenient.

Fang Chu eagerly studied the instructions in the jade slip and dived into the mystic realm to begin hatching and raising the Redback Dragon Beasts.

The Azure Dragon Mystic Realm had certain restrictions—cultivators above the Profound Pill Realm couldn't enter, and beasts couldn't grow beyond that level inside.

However, the altered time flow within the mystic realm made it an ideal early-stage training ground for spirit beasts.

And with Fang Chu's immortal lifespan, he could stay in the mystic realm indefinitely, speeding up the growth of beast cubs to the Profound Pill Realm.

As long as the Fang family had the right beasts, Fang Chu could mass-raise them quickly and efficiently.

Of course, once the Redback Dragon Beasts reached the Profound Pill Realm, they'd have to be taken out—and fed vast resources to keep growing.

But once matured, they would become a formidable asset to the Fang clan.
