In the Ningdan Hall.
Xingge was stunned by the soaring light.
She hurried to the window and muttered to herself.
"Someone has concocted an elixir of immortality."
A beam of white light shot into the sky—wasn't that the scene she had been longing for day and night?
"Such a strong spirit, this location belongs to Xingcheng."
After confirming the direction, she escaped directly from the window.
In Xingcheng.
Ye Buxiu put away the nine knives and their sheaths.
But he saw a group of people staring at him in disbelief.
They're not so surprised because I've mastered the elixir of immortality, are they?
More than 10,000 years ago, when there was no war, immortals often appeared on the continent. Even if he did not communicate with the outside world, he knew that elixirs were common at that time.
Look at their expressions. Sigh, ignorance is truly terrifying.
"So? Are you convinced now?"
Ye Buxiu took the sword out of the furnace, carried it on his back, and came to Li Dian.
He was so ashamed that he wanted to run away.
"I give up."
"Does the bet we made before still stand?"
"Yes, of course! Just give the order, sir."
"How about this, I'm magnanimous and won't hold it against you too much, how about I take your hands off?"
"ah!"
Li Dian was terrified upon hearing this, his legs went weak, and he knelt down before Ye Buxiu.
How can an alchemist control the size of the flames in the furnace if he or she has no hands?
Taking his hands would be worse than taking his life.
And this is even more humiliating than losing your life!
"Senior, senior," Ding Ning said, sounding somewhat uncomfortable with the new title, Ye Buxiu.
Although she was usually annoyed by Li Dian's rudeness, he was, after all, her companion, and she would try to plead for him if possible.
Moreover, after seeing Ye Buxiu kill Liu Yishou without even blinking, she felt that Ye Buxiu might really treat Li Dian as a plaything to humiliate.
"Although he has offended you, could you please consider his ignorance and forgive his petty offense, and cripple his legs?"
......
Ye Buxiu only meant to scare him, but he didn't expect him to actually take it seriously.
The girl next to me actually believed it!
Am I that terrifying? Am I the kind of ruthless killer who doesn't blink an eye?
"Ahem, since you're willing to plead for him, I'll spare his life for your sake. However, he may be spared for a major crime, but he can't escape punishment for minor ones."
"I want you to pay money to cover up your mistakes. Are you willing?"
These words revealed Ye Buxiu's greedy nature.
However, in the eyes of everyone, this was not a joke.
Li Dian quickly agreed.
"Yes, yes!"
As he spoke, he put his hand in his pocket and took out a large pile of spirit stones and spirit stone scrolls from his storage ring.
“This is all my savings, a total of 4 million, and I’m giving it all to you.”
Li Dian took out all the money he had usually swindled and cheated and handed it to Ye Buxiu.
"Wow! This one person alone can save up four million!"
Ye Buxiu was somewhat surprised when he heard the amount.
"So, the Firestorm Sect is such a big sect... I guess I should raise the rent!"
"I'll let you off this time since you're so honest. Now get lost, and don't let me see you again."
Ye Buxiu accepted the money with satisfaction and released the person.
He ignored the onlookers.
Anyway, I've achieved my goal for this trip. My next destination is Dan City, the capital of the Songpo Empire.
Perhaps I won't be able to come here again.
Let them see it however they want.
"I'll be going now!"
As I turned around, a ray of light shone down.
Xingge's graceful body appeared in the air above the alchemy room, which had been opened by Ye Buxiu.
"Um?"
"senior!"
Xingge was startled when she saw Ye Buxiu clearly.
What brings you here, senior?
Judging from the way it looks, it must have been caused by the alchemy of the senior.
Is the senior refining immortal elixirs here?
senior?
Everyone around knew Xingge, but who would have thought that the first thing he said to her was "senior"?
She's not old in terms of age, but in terms of qualifications, would anyone dare to be her senior?
However, something even more surprising happened.
Ye Buxiu nodded calmly and smiled.
Why are you here?
How did I get here? Senior, with all the commotion you've caused, how could I not notice?
Xingge thought to herself, but she couldn't say it aloud.
"I heard you were here, so I came to see you."
She remembered that when Grandpa Yu Hui saw her yesterday, he said he had discovered a strange and extraordinary young man.
This must be referring to my senior. He's been here for two days, and I didn't even realize it.
"You heard I've arrived?"
Ye Buxiu thought that Guan Sanguan and the others had deduced his residence, so how could Xingge not have deduced his arrival?
"Oh, I just came here to take care of some business. I just finished."
"Senior, would it be convenient for us to have a chat?"
Xingge continued,
With so many people around and so many eyes looking at her, she was afraid of unintentionally ruining her senior's purpose for this trip.
"What's going on?" Li Dian and the others couldn't believe what was happening before their eyes.
"Lady Xingge actually knows Ye Buxiu. Judging from their appearance, she even slightly curtsied."
This sight further convinced Ding Ning of Ye Buxiu's identity.
"good."
Ye Buxiu followed Xingge to the room that President Yu Hui had brought him to yesterday.
"Um... I heard you're holding some kind of alchemist competition these days, is that right?"
