"What's wrong with you?"
After leaving the main hall, Wen Yuzhao asked helplessly.
Gingerbread rubbed its nose. "I just want to go to the alchemy competition and join in the fun."
Wen Yuzhao glanced at her sideways and said, "Keep pretending."
Seeing that Gingerbread was unwilling to tell the truth.
He turned and left, saying, "I told Master I didn't want to go, and asked Master to go with you."
"No, no, no." Gingerbread slyly bent his palm. "Come with me, I'll tell you a secret."
"..."
Wen Yuzhao remained silent.
Let's follow Gingerbread to her courtyard.
After going back.
She locked the doors and windows.
"?" Wen Yuzhao sighed, rubbing his forehead. "Junior sister, there are no thieves on Immortal Jade Peak."
Gingerbread gestured for him to calm down.
He ran to the shelf, took down the wishing lantern, placed it on the table, clapped his hands, and said, "Old Huang, come out!"
"Boer——"
An old man emerged from the wishing lantern.
"?" Wen Yuzhao was shocked and immediately took a step back. "What the hell is this?"
"You rude brat! How could I be a ghost?" Old Huang sat cross-legged in mid-air, arms crossed.
His small eyes narrowed as he stared at Wen Yuzhao.
Jiang Bingbing knew Wen Yuzhao's biggest secret, and she wasn't afraid that he would find out about Huang Lao's existence.
"Second Senior Brother, this old man is Huang Li, an eighth-grade alchemist from Qianlai Mountain."
“I lied to my master about going to the alchemy conference to join in the fun, but actually I wanted to go to Qianlai Mountain to get the Spirit Bone Grass. Including going to the Prince’s Tomb to ask for the Blood Flesh Mushroom, it was all for Huang Lao to reshape his physical body.”
Wen Yuzhao understood.
He glanced at Old Huang and then looked at Gingerbread and said:
"No wonder you're so eccentric and have made such rapid progress in your cultivation. It turns out you have a master guiding you."
Gingerbread wanted to say that wasn't the case.
Her cultivation speed is so fast because of the Burning Blade.
Burning away was her biggest secret.
I can't tell anyone.
“Uh—” Jiang nodded, and said vaguely, “That’s right, Old Huang helped me a lot.”
Old Huang opened his mouth wide.
The disciples of Xianyu Peak are all masters of pretense.
Wen Yuzhao remained silent.
Ginger Cake reasoned with him and appealed to his emotions, "Second Senior Brother, Elder Huang was harmed to this state by his junior brother, and Song Yuechen even killed their master. This kind of beast deserves to die!"
"Don't you want to join me in upholding justice and saving the cultivation world?"
"I only want to destroy the cultivation world," Wen Yuzhao said slowly, lifting his eyelids.
"..."
cough--
"Ha, this—" Gingerbread scratched her neck helplessly, her embarrassment making her move eight hundred times a minute.
In her impassioned speech, she almost forgot that her second senior brother wished all the sects except the Sword Sect would perish.
"Too much talk leads to mistakes." Gingerbread Cookie chuckled twice. "Senior brother, you don't need to come with me. Just keep it a secret from Master."
Wen Yuzhao's lips twitched. "What if you die?"
"If you die out there, or if anything happens to you, Master will skin me alive." He waved his sleeve impatiently. "Never mind, I'll go with you."
Gingerbread's pupils glowed.
I haven't thanked them yet.
Wen Yuzhao said with a straight face, "I'm not doing this for any reason other than breaking the cultivation world, nor for this old man."
Huang Lao, who was floating in mid-air, felt offended.
He thought the people from Xianyu Peak were really annoying.
“I did this for you.” Wen Yuzhao put his hand on Jiang Bingbing’s shoulder. “If I say I’ll protect you, I will.”
Damn it!
Gingerbread blinked, forcefully holding back the tears that were about to well up.
She grinned.
"Hey, who can blame me for being cute and kind? You're all completely captivated by me!"
"It's tough for you to teach someone like this."
Wen Yuzhao felt that Old Huang was indeed a bit pitiful.
Gingerbread: "...Enough with the nonsense, let's go."
Although it was extremely sudden.
But Wen Yuzhao inexplicably followed Jiang Bingbing and flew towards Qianlai Mountain.
When they left, Immortal Lord Qingxue sent them a spaceship.
Invest the spirit stone.
Wen Yuzhao and Jiang Bingbing then went off to cultivate on their own.
The glass furnace was too conspicuous, so she took out an ordinary alchemy furnace and began refining pills while simultaneously expelling the old and taking in the new.
Time flies.
A day passed, and we arrived at the foot of Qianlai Mountain.
Qianlai Mountain is located in the southwest region. The mountain is rich in spiritual herbs and medicines, which are quite expensive for alchemists.
Therefore, it was named Qianlai Mountain.
Wen Yuzhao: "Let's find an inn to rest for the night, find out where Song Yuechen is, and then go to Qianlai Mountain."
Gingerbread nodded: "That works."
The town in front of us is called [Chuanwu].
A town named after a traditional Chinese medicine.
Once in town, Jiang Bingbing and Wen Yuzhao acted like siblings on an outing, strolling around and searching for an inn.
After entering the city.
She then realized she had underestimated Song Yuechen's ability to put on a show.
The people of Chuanwu City praised the new ruler of Qianlai Mountain highly and held him in high esteem.
"Master Song Dan has gone to the Central Plains to attend the Alchemy Conference."
"If you go to Qianlai Mountain and find nothing, go to the clinic in the north of the city. There are alchemists and their apprentices there."
"Thank you so much, Auntie! My child has a high fever that won't go down, I'm so worried!"
"You're too kind. The North City Medical Clinic still has pills left behind by Master Dan. One pill will cure all your ailments!"
"I'll go right away."
The woman was carrying a child and walking hurriedly.
Gingerbread stopped the auntie, "Auntie, isn't the alchemist at Qianlai Mountain?"
The old woman looked at Jiang Bingbing warily. "Young lady, you're not from Chuanwu, are you?"
“No.” She obediently shook her head. “My parents are seriously ill, so my brother and I have come to pay our respects to Master Songdan.”
"I see!"
