Chapter 675 Chapter 675: Conditions
The eldest elder of the Duan family stroked his white beard, his eyes gleaming: "Your master hasn't come back to visit you for so many years. Does that mean she doesn't need to continue guiding you in alchemy? It's such a waste of talent for her to treat her only disciple like this. I cherish talent and don't want to see a genius like you stagnate. Therefore, after careful consideration, I've extended an invitation to you."
"As for the matter of incurring the anger of the clan, there is no need to worry too much. Losing is losing. Admitting that you are not as good as others, you can learn from the experience and gain something from it. There is still a chance to restore the glory of the Duan clan. In the end, the alchemy competition is just a competition. Diligent cultivation on a daily basis is the most important thing."
Ye Fei's eyes flickered slightly.
The goal of the Duan family's Grand Elder was actually very clear.
He wanted to bring her into the Duan family and use her reputation to restore the Duan family's status in the alchemy world.
Not only can they win over an alchemist who has the potential to create another miracle, but they can also enhance the family's reputation. It's a win-win situation, and I believe that not only the Duan family, but other families would think the same way.
But she—was she the kind of person who would willingly be bound to a family and manipulated at will?
Ye Fei smiled and bowed to the Duan family elder, saying, "I appreciate the elder's kindness, but I am used to freedom and have no intention of joining another family for the time being."
The Duan Clan's Grand Elder was somewhat surprised by her refusal: "Girl, your alchemy skills are by no means inferior to your master's. The Duan Clan also has abundant resources, including medicinal herbs, pills, and even all kinds of alchemical manuals. Do you really want to give up your bright future for the sake of so-called freedom?"
Ye Fei calmly said, "The Duan family is indeed very strong in alchemy, but I do not intend to become a complete alchemist. Let's put aside resources such as medicinal herbs and pills for now. If the Duan family can guarantee to provide me with better training facilities and techniques, and promise not to restrict my time allocation for training and alchemy, I am willing to join them."
"you……"
The Duan family elder was immediately indignant: "You little girl, you're so young, yet you have such a big mouth! The conditions you've proposed are far too unreasonable!"
“These conditions are not unreasonable, but rather things that a cultivator must possess,” Ye Fei said. “Perhaps you will think I am arrogant and rude, but what I have done is only for self-preservation.”
The Duan family elder was speechless for a moment.
Indeed, while alchemists are highly respected, the inability to simultaneously pursue alchemy and spiritual cultivation puts them in a dangerous situation where they are easily killed midway through their practice.
Moreover, most alchemists are self-righteous, arrogant, and disdainful of others, making them far more likely to make enemies than other cultivators...
If it weren't for the many experts from the Divine Wind Palace secretly protecting his Duan clan, which was short of spiritual masters, they might have been wiped out long ago.
The eldest elder of the Duan family sighed. It turned out that this girl was not arrogant; on the contrary, she had already seen through these things very clearly.
This invitation was destined to be in vain.
The Duan family elder stopped pressuring the matter: "You are thinking so much at such a young age, it is I who have not considered things thoroughly. So be it, so be it!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei smiled and said, "In the future, if I am able to participate in the Alchemy Conference, I will also compete fairly with your Duan Clan, just like my master."
