Speaking of the Crazy Snake Gang, Tian Feirong smiled proudly. The members of the Crazy Snake Gang were so arrogant at first. Even though they were defeated by Chi Changye, they were not necessarily honest. Now they actually came to beg for mercy. Even he and the little fat man each received an apology gift from the Crazy Snake Gang. They should not be too humble.

"Okay, don't smile too proudly. The people of the Crazy Snake Gang are afraid that others will take action against them to please Gu Yao, so they hurried over to apologize. And you accepted the gift." The little fat man said unhappily.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing these days?" Tian Feirong poked the little fat man with his finger. Now that Gu Yao and Chi Changye are back, the little fat man is still like this.

"Alright, stop arguing." Gu Yao looked at the two of them helplessly. He knew that the fat boy was in a bad mood. Seeing that Master Hu had left again, the fat boy was probably troubled again. "Keep working hard in the future."

Tian Feirong absolutely agreed with this point. If it weren't for Gu Yao and Chi Changye's real ability, how could they have lived to their current glorious days? Even Pei Yuchun and Hou Qiang, who were so powerful when they entered the academy together, sent gifts to them, and envy was evident in their eyes.

Gu Yao learned that the pills he had given to Tian Feirong were sold out before they were delivered to the store, so he had no choice but to quickly refine a batch of pills to open the store. Not to mention his pills, even the talismans in the store were in great demand, but not many people knew that they were made by Chi Changye, otherwise they would be even more popular.

In response to this situation, Tian Feirong and the little fat man discussed a limited sale method, and the price only increased slightly and did not increase any further. Anyway, for them, the spiritual stones they earned were enough to use.

On the other side, Master Hu led the disciples in the valley to board the flying magic weapon and set off on the return journey, leaving Tianfu Academy. Sang Shu and Wan Siqing could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Gu Yao and their master discussed alchemy all day and night, which

was very stressful for them. They could look down on the alchemy peak, but they knew that Gu Yao was a great threat to them, and it was not easy to shake Gu Yao's image and status in their master's mind.

The other disciples of Cuiyan Valley who were accompanying them were also whispering to each other. Who could have thought that Tianfu Academy would produce such a genius alchemist, suppressing those so-called geniuses in Cuiyan Valley and making them look pale.

They felt that Gu Yao did not enter Cuiyan Valley but went to Tianfu Academy, which made Cuiyan Valley lose a lot of face. But they were also glad that Gu Yao did not come to Cuiyan Valley, otherwise they would have had the opportunity to shine. They would have been directly suppressed by Gu Yao and pale.

Master Hu has been standing in front of the flying magic weapon, seemingly admiring the scenery outside, but in fact, his mind is repeatedly thinking about Gu Yao's last words. He originally planned to ponder the gains of this time and announce the seclusion as soon as he returned to Cuiyan Valley, but this time he put Sun'er's affairs first, surpassing his beloved alchemy for the first time.

Is Weicai's character really that bad? Thinking carefully, Sun'er has never harmed the lives of any disciples in the valley, nor has he done many things to bully others. How many of the things he has heard in the past are true?

Wei Cai has a bad reputation outside. Is it because of his fame, or... someone is deliberately pushing him behind the scenes? Is it for him? Or is it for Wei Cai?

"Master, don't you need to take a rest? Will you go into seclusion when you return to the valley?" Wan Siqing walked to the side of Master Hu and asked in a concerned voice. According to Master's temperament, he will go into seclusion for a while when he returns to the valley. Master

Hu glanced at his disciples and asked: "Is there still no news about Wei Cai's whereabouts? Is it

someone Is it because of poor performance or what? We haven’t gotten any clues in such a long time?”

Wan Siqing never expected that Master would ask about the little junior brother. She was caught off guard and showed a look of surprise, but she reacted quickly and said with a worried look: “Master, it’s my senior brother and I who didn’t perform our duties well. We will personally follow the people in the valley to investigate when we return. Please punish us, Master. It’s my and my senior brother’s fault. Master entrusted the little junior brother to us, but we disciples…”

Wan Siqing was about to cry. Valley Master Hu looked at her for a long time before lowering his eyes, turning back to the cabin: “Forget it, you guys continue to investigate. We can only blame Wei Cai for being too good at hiding.”

So, did the people in the valley do their best to do what he had instructed? But just one expression made Master Hu suspicious, otherwise why would Wan Siqing look surprised? Would he be so surprised to ask about Wei Cai's whereabouts? Shouldn't they keep it in mind while tracking him down? At

this moment, Master Hu was deeply suspicious of himself and the things around him.

With the departure of Cuiyan Valley, Gu Yao's reputation also spread in Tianlin Continent, especially to all parties who participated in the Ascension Conference at that time. They could basically recognize that the person who was looking for the top-grade Bihua Dan was Gu Yao himself.

And it also makes sense that the Bihua Pill disappeared like a flash in the pan, because Gu Yao happened to attend the Ascension Conference during that time, and he left with Tianfu Academy after the conference. Since then, there has been no trace of the owner of the top-grade Bihua Pill in Shifang City.

So various forces have been trying to find out about Gu Yao's background, because according to the news from Cuiyan Valley, Tianfu Academy and Qianxue Sect, Gu Yao has developed the antidote for the Illusionary Demon Liquid - Hongxuan Pill, which not only revived the poisoned person, but was also personally identified and approved by Master Hu. No matter how much the parties believe it, it can be concluded that Gu Yao's talent in alchemy is indeed high, which is worth recruiting.

Beixing Sect.

As soon as Lu Minzhu came out of retreat, she was told that her master wanted her to go. On the way, she was asked if she knew Gu Yao, who had participated in the Ascension Conference with her, and who later entered Tianfu Academy.

Lu Minzhu had already entered the sixth level of Qi Refining when she came out of retreat this time. This speed of cultivation was quite good among all the disciples of Beixing Sect.

She was in a good mood, but as soon as she came out of retreat, she heard people mention Gu Yao. She felt a little strange and asked, "How do you know Gu Yao? What did he do?"

Ever since she returned to the sect after the Ascension Conference, she has been devoted to cultivation and almost oblivious to what is happening outside. So how would she know about Gu Yao's situation? She thought that from now on, just like she and Gu Yan would be people from two different worlds, she and Gu Yao would hardly have any intersection again. But she didn't expect to hear his name so soon.

"So, Junior Sister, you really know Gu Yao. This guy is amazing. He made Master Hu of Cuiyan Valley stay in Tianfu Academy for half a month for him. It is said that they lived in the same room for half a month and talked about alchemy without leaving. Not only is he the owner of the top-grade Bihua Pill that everyone in Shifang City was looking for, he also developed the antidote for the Magic Demon Liquid, the Red Mysterious Pill, and solved the problem that Master Hu was not sure about. Junior Sister, you may not know about the Magic Demon Liquid yet. Let me tell you..."

The disciple who led Lu Minzhu explained a lot, and Lu Minzhu was in a dizzy state. Was the person this senior brother was talking about really the Gu Yao she knew? Were they the same person? How is this possible?

The disciple had never thought that Lu Minzhu actually knew Gu Yao, and that they had a very shallow relationship. In order to satisfy

his desire to tell a story and gossip, he sent Lu Minzhu to her destination and then turned around and left. Before Lu Minzhu could say anything, a voice came from inside asking her to come in. It was her master, the elder of the North Star Sect. Therefore, she became an inner sect disciple as soon as she entered, and her status was quite high.

"Master, Senior Brother is here too." Lu Minzhu bowed as soon as she entered the room. She didn't expect Senior Brother Yan Yang to be here too. This made her heart skip a beat. Could it be related to Gu Yao?

"Minzhu is here," Lu Minzhu's master, Elder Wu of the Northern Star Sect, asked, "Minzhu, do you know Gu Yao? He seems to be from the same place as you, Minzhu?" As expected

, Lu Minzhu couldn't help but smile bitterly. She didn't dare to hide anything and told him what she knew. She didn't mention the embarrassing engagement and the subsequent cancellation of the engagement. After all, from a moral point of view, she was wrong. What's more, she and her cousin Gu Yan didn't get along. It's hard to talk about these past events.

Yan Yang saw a gloomy expression on Lu Minzhu's face, and guessed that she had something else to say. However, the ancient situations she mentioned were enough to shock people.

“Gu Yao has four spiritual roots!”

“Gu Yao is the holder of the Changxianmen token, and he later gave it out in exchange for his freedom from the family!

”

“Gu Yao’s cultivation and alchemy skills improved by leaps and bounds after he left the family. He was already a mid-level alchemist at that time!”

“Gu Yao has an uncle of unknown origin. The Changxianmen token was given out by him, but he never came back. Gu Yao’s alchemy skills are suspected to come from this uncle!”

Elder Wu and Yan Yang looked at each other. They didn’t expect that an inconspicuous little cultivator at the Ascension Conference had such a complicated background. They both suspected that Gu Yao’s uncle of unknown origin was most likely not a cultivator from Tianlin Continent, but from outside, and more likely from where Changxianmen was located.

"Why didn't you mention these things to the sect earlier?" Elder Wu blamed his disciple for keeping such an important matter secret. If he had known earlier, even if Gu Yao was a four-spiritual root, he could have accepted him into the sect to wait and see.

"Master..." Lu Minzhu stammered, not knowing how to explain.

"Elder Wu, it's not my fault. I didn't expect so much, and I didn't expect Gu Yao to hide it so deeply. At that time, Master Hu had said that he wanted to accept him as his personal disciple, but he couldn't help but not stand up. Instead, he went to Tianfu Academy. Gu Yao's thoughts are hard to understand. By the way, Junior Sister Lu doesn't know that the monk Chi Changye next to Gu Yao has already established his foundation." Yan Yang smiled.

"What?!" Lu Minzhu's heart skipped a few beats again. She couldn't hide the shock on her face. She seemed to be more surprised than Gu Yao becoming a high-level alchemist.
