nLiang Yan threw the scroll back to song Qingfeng, “I don’t have time.”
n
nSong Qingfeng put down the scroll and disappeared. His voice echoed in the air, “Master asked me to bring it over. If you don’t want to go, you can go and tell Master yourself.”
n
nLiang Yan was helpless. He raised his hand and grabbed at the air, and the scroll flew into his hand.
n
nHe frowned, thought for a moment, and put the scroll away.
n
nAt this moment, the alchemy furnace in front of him also exuded a refreshing fragrance. He cast a spell again, opened the lid, took out a jade screen, and stored the ten pills.
n
nHe refined ten cauldrons in a row, a total of one hundred pills, each of which was a Supreme-grade pill.
n
nAfter refining the elixir, it was already bright outside.
n
nLiang Yan furrowed his brows and pondered for a moment. He suddenly felt like he was being controlled. Why would he be willing to waste an entire morning to help his Junior Sister whom he had only met twice?
n
nWhen he thought of her, the fear on his face disappeared. Perhaps it was because she was different from other women.
n
nLiang Yan kept the pills and left the courtyard in a flash.
n
nHe reappeared in front of Master Lingxu’s cave abode.
n
n“Master, I, Liang Yan, have something important to discuss with you.”
n
nAs soon as he finished speaking, the restriction of the cave abode was deactivated.
n
nLiang Yan stood up and walked into the cave. The moment he entered, he heard Master Lingxu ask, “I heard from Qingfeng that you’re refining pills?”
n
nLiang Yan grunted in agreement. Ling Xu glanced at him, “A mission?”
n
n“Yes,” Liang Yan replied.
n
n“Liang Yan, you’re lying,” Lingxu chuckled.
n
n“It’s an agreement, so it can’t be considered a lie.” Liang Yan did not deny it.
n
nHe was indeed doing a mission, but it was someone else’s mission.
n
nWhen Ling Xu heard this, he asked curiously, “Oh? Who is it that can make you refine pills?”
n
nLiang Yan did not answer this time. Instead, he took out a scroll. “Master, it’s better to let someone else lead the team for the trial.”
n
n“Impossible!” Ling Xu immediately threw him out.
n
nIn an instant, the stone door of the immortal’s cave closed.
n
nLiang Yan knew that his Master had already made up his mind. He had to lead the team this time.
n
nThe trial test for new disciples was like child’s play. It lasted ten days, and he could not do anything during these ten days. He could only wait at the entrance for everyone to come out.
n
nSong Qingfeng suddenly appeared out of nowhere and was very happy to see Liang Yan’s face.
n
nSong Qingfeng said, “Senior Brother, you look so old now. You’re only a few decades old. Why do you have to look like you’re a few hundred years old? It’s good to be with those young disciples. They can help you look like a young man. When we first entered the sect, you were so beautiful. You’re not as annoying as you are now.”
n
n“It’s better than some people crying after leaving home,” Liang Yan replied with a look.
n
nSong Qingfeng was silent for a moment.
n
nHe then became furious. “Who’s crying?! I was forced to drink a Tear Inducing Pill by my cousin!”
n
nLiang Yan’s lips curled up slightly, revealing an expression of disbelief. He then left.
n
nSong Qingfeng was furious and followed him.
n
nHe had to find out who Liang Yan had agreed with to start refining pills, and they were even of the lowest grade!
n
nThe next morning, Dong Xi finished her cultivation as soon as the sun rose.
n
nThe spiritual energy in her Dantian was more condensed. She also began to slowly temper her Du Meridian. When she was done, she could attempt to break through to the third level of Qi Refinement.
n
nShe opened her eyes and used the spiritual Qi she had cultivated all night to convert into the wood attribute to help the little snake on her arm heal.
n
nAfter consuming about 30 percent of her spiritual Qi, Dong Xi stopped and stood up from the futon. She walked out of the door and headed to the Cultivation Technique Hall.
n
nWhen she arrived, Liang Yan had not yet arrived.
n
nShe squatted on the ground and began to draw with a small branch at the side, mumbling softly.
n
n“He’s a bad guy who instigated Dong Rourou to kill people. Why should I believe him? Maybe I got scammed by him. If that’s the case, not only would I not have any medicinal pills, I might not even have any medicinal herbs.”
n
nHer drawing skills were not good, so it was impossible to tell who the little person was.
n
nThe sudden appearance of a pair of boots in front of her gave her a shock. She looked up and saw the man in front of her. Her pupils shrank and she immediately stood up. She used her foot to rub off the drawing on the ground and smiled awkwardly. “Senior Brother, you’ve come.”
n
n“You don’t believe me.” Liang Yan’s face was still gloomy.
n
nWhat he said was a statement, and Dong Xi was extremely embarrassed.
n
nAs expected, this fantasy world was different from her own world, and she must be careful when talking behind other people’s backs.
n
nDong Xi said, “No, it’s just…”
n
nShe had wanted to stammer and fool him, but Liang Yan had no intention of telling her to shut up. He just kept looking at her, waiting for her to finish.
n
nDong Xi instantly lost her composure. She lowered her head, and even her tied-up hair bun looked a little listless. “I just saw that you weren’t here yet, so I thought you were lying to me yesterday.”
