Yongfeng Town, Yuqing Hall.

Qin Luo asked with a smile, "Senior Brother Lin, why isn't Jun'er with you?"

Lin Xuan shook his head and sighed softly, "Jun'er and his sister are at my father-in-law's house. My husband and I are usually busy and don't have time to take care of them."

"Senior brother, congratulations on having both a son and a daughter."

"Sigh, we don't even have time to take care of the two siblings. We, as their parents, are the ones who have let them down."

"Senior brother, they will understand in time."

"I hope so."

Qin Luo took out all the purple fruits he had on him and smiled, "Senior brother, I didn't prepare any special gift. These are spiritual fruits I picked in the mountains. I hope you will accept them."

Lin Xuan often went into the mountains to collect herbs, so he could naturally tell that these purple fruits were not ordinary. He waved his hands repeatedly, "Junior Brother Qin, these things are too valuable, I cannot accept them."

“Senior brother, when I first arrived at Longhu Temple, you took great care of me and gave me the pills you refined. These spiritual fruits are nothing.”

Qin Luo stuffed the purple fruit into Lin Xuan's hand.

Lin Xuan could only accept the purple fruit that Qin Luo handed him. He said to himself with a self-deprecating smile, "The pills I used to refine were all half-finished waste pills, all black and unappetizing. None of my senior brothers dared to eat them. Only you are not afraid of death."

Qin Luo shook his head and said seriously, "How could I not be afraid of death? I just trust my senior brother."

"Hahaha."

The fellow students burst out laughing at the same time.

Hua Ying watched them laugh heartily, feeling somewhat envious. Her only friend before was Zhu Xian, but it was only through Qin Luo that she met so many interesting friends.

Lin Xuan put away the purple fruit that Qin Luo handed over.

Qin Luo chuckled and joked, "Senior Brother Lin, your business has all disappeared since we arrived."

"It's better if there's no business. I hope everyone is doing well. When that happens, I'll switch to making medicinal cuisine. You know, I used to be a chef at Longhu Temple." Lin Xuan couldn't help but chuckle.

Hua Ying stopped using her divine power to help the patients who approached Yu Qing Tang. Soon, a boy with a ferocious expression on his head ran into Yu Qing Tang, howling, "Uncle Lin, I've been stung by a bee."

Lin Xuan went behind the counter, took out a bottle of medicine, and said earnestly, "Xiao Qin, don't disturb the beehives anymore. Some bees are so poisonous that they can kill you in half an hour."

"Uncle Lin, I've got it."

The boy was in so much pain that tears streamed down his face.

Lin Xuan applied his homemade ointment.

A moment later, the boy grinned and said, "Uncle Lin, your medicine is really effective. My forehead doesn't hurt anymore."

"Uncle Lin, how much?"

Do you have money?

"Hehe, remember this, I'll send you a jar of honey in a couple of days."

"Forget about the honey, I don't want to get stung again."

"I will be more careful in the future."

The boy turned and left Yuqing Hall.

Lin Xuan did not keep accounts.

People began to come to Yuqingtang for medical treatment.

Qin Luo got up to examine Lin Xuan. He wasn't as knowledgeable about medicine as his senior brother Lin, but he could handle most common and difficult cases.

When everyone heard that Qin Luo was Lin Xuan's junior brother, they naturally had no doubts about his medical skills. Hua Ying helped to decoct the medicine. Many townspeople had their medicine decocted at Yu Qing Tang and either drank it there or took it back in jars.

Lin Xuan's medical care is inexpensive, so people from all around come to him for treatment.

As the sun began to set, Yuqing Hall grew quiet. Lin Xuan closed the wooden door, a smile in his eyes. "Junior Brother Qin, Miss Azi, thank you for your hard work, keeping you busy until now."

Qin Luo shook his head and said softly, "Senior brother, we are all family, there's no need to be so formal."

Lin Xuan laughed heartily, "Junior Brother is right."

They arrived at a house on the edge of town. Yao Shuang was preparing food in the kitchen, while Qin Luo saw a dilapidated stove in the corner—a broken alchemy furnace.

Qin Luo asked curiously, "Senior brother, are you still refining pills?"

"Yes, it's just that the alchemy furnace is no good."

Lin Xuan shook his head and sighed, "Over the years, I've blown up a lot of alchemy furnaces. Your sister-in-law often complains to me, saying that I'm wasting money tinkering with this stuff and that I should just buy more clothes for the kids."

Qin Luo knew that Lin Xuan's dream was to refine an elixir of immortality. If he could refine it, it would be worth any amount of money. However, with such an ordinary alchemy furnace and common medicinal materials, it was definitely impossible to refine an elixir of immortality. He didn't know what to say.

Hua Ying spread her hands, and the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace appeared out of thin air. As soon as the furnace appeared, the energy between heaven and earth gathered towards the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace, and a raging fire burned inside the furnace.

“Senior Brother Lin, this alchemy furnace is useless to me. Since you like alchemy, I will give it to you.”

The Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace flew to Lin Xuan's front.

Lin Xuan looked shocked. "Miss Zi, this is unacceptable. This alchemy furnace should be priceless."

Hua Ying chuckled and said, "Senior Brother Lin, I am actually Qin Luo's defeated opponent. Everything I have belongs to him, even my heart."

Qin Luo was stunned for a moment.

Lin Xuan looked at Qin Luo with a smile in his eyes, as if to say, "You're not bad, kid."

Qin Luo came to his senses and said, "Senior brother, how about this, consider this alchemy furnace a loan from Azi to you."

Lin Xuan thought for a moment, and he still wanted to pursue his dream. "Junior brother's idea is good. If Miss Azi wants to take back this alchemy furnace in the future, she can take it back at any time."

"Um."

Hua Ying nodded and smiled softly.

Lin Xuan reached out and touched the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace, causing golden patterns to light up on its surface.

Qin Luo and Hua Ying locked eyes. They were able to activate the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace through their own strength, while Lin Xuan had gained the recognition of the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace.

The Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace transformed into a beam of purple light and disappeared between Lin Xuan's brows, startling him so much that he took two steps back.
