Chapter 19: Burning Heaven Art
"Is the master alchemist here?!"
Before the young man could speak, a burly, haggard-looking middle-aged man pushed him aside and saw Luo Li standing outside the door.
He restrained his expression and said sternly, "What brings you to our Yanluo Mercenary Group? We are not accepting commissions recently."
As he said this, he was about to close the door.
"Wait a moment." Luo Li gently pressed her hand against the door. "I heard that the young leader of Yanluo hasn't woken up yet?"
"Nonsense!" The young man exploded when he heard this, and took two quick steps to pry open Luo Li's hands that were against the door.
If their young leader had woken up, they would have revealed that broken notice long ago!
"Wu Lang!" The middle-aged man held him back and looked at Luo Li with some apology in his eyes. "I'm sorry, my friend. He was a little impulsive. Please don't mind."
Luo Li raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled faintly, "No problem, I'm also an alchemist, can you let me go in and take a look at his condition?"
“This…” The middle-aged man scratched his head. “Even the Saint-level Alchemist is helpless… Besides, the captain has already gone to Tianyu Palace to ask for Master Nangong.”
Although he didn't say it directly, he was obviously unwilling to let Luo Li try it.
"No... It's bad, the young leader..."
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the yard. The two men's faces changed. They had no time to deal with Luo Li, so they turned around and ran in.
Luo Li heard the anxiety hidden in the voice and thought that the condition of the young leader had worsened again.
If it weren't for the Chaos Jade fragments, she would have turned around and left if this person had refused like that.
but……
Luo Li sighed and walked in.
In the room, two big men were holding down the young man lying on the bed.
This young man is the young leader of the Yanluo Mercenary Group, Mu Bei.
"Uncle Zhou! You're here, come and see the young leader!"
"Young Captain!" The middle-aged man, Uncle Zhou, strode to the bedside with a frown on his face.
Everyone in the yard was in a mess and didn't notice Luo Li who had walked into the room.
"Quick! Go get Master Sun!"
Master Sun is a heavenly-level alchemist and the chief alchemist of Shenfeng City.
It was he who used the elixir to save the young leader's life.
Luo Li stood silently by and observed the situation. The young man on the bed was twisting wildly, and black mysterious runes appeared all over his body, giving people an ominous atmosphere.
This isn't a wound, it's a curse.
Seeing this rune, the Tower of Gods in his body began to roar again, and Luo Li actually felt a sense of anger.
Suddenly, a fragmented and blurry image and some obscure text flashed through my mind.
And three words, Burning Heaven Art.
Luo Li read out the text softly, and the golden light circled around her, and then slowly surrounded Mu Bei. The person who was struggling frantically on the bed slowly stopped struggling.
"This!" Uncle Zhou's eyes were filled with horror.
Everyone in the room looked at Luo Li in shock.
"Who is this?"
A hot woman reacted and quickly walked over to Luo Li, holding her hand. "My dear, how did you do that?!"
A gorgeous beauty suddenly held her hand, and Luo Li's heart skipped a beat.
Zhan Yun, the deputy leader of the Yanluo Mercenary Group, a seven-star spiritual emperor, is a well-known master in the entire continent.
Luo Li blinked and said briefly, "It's a secret handed down from my ancestors. I don't know how it works."
It was indeed passed down to her by the Tower of Gods. Luo Li touched her nose and thought that she was not lying.
"Can you save him?" As soon as Zhan Yun said this, everyone around her looked at her with hope.
It was as if, when Luo Li said that she couldn’t be saved, they would immediately burst into tears.
"Okay." Luo Li nodded. "But, is the jade on your notice in the mercenary group?"
Zhan Yun breathed a sigh of relief, his expression slightly changing, but he forced a smile and said, "It's in the mercenary group's warehouse. Once the master stabilizes our young leader's strength, I will immediately present the treasure to you."
Luo Li nodded. As the number one mercenary group on the continent, the Yanluo Mercenary Group always does what it says.
So she didn't waste any time, took out a pen and paper, wrote down a list of medicinal materials for alchemy and gave it to Zhan Yun.
"Find all the spiritual plants on this list."
The Burning Heaven Curse alone cannot completely eliminate Mu Bei's injuries, and he still needs the help of elixirs to heal them.
Zhan Yun took the list, glanced at it, and took a breath of cold air. So many precious spiritual plants also required the inner elixir of a divine beast.
Only half of them could be found in the Yanluo Mercenary Group, but she did not say much. She handed the list to Uncle Zhou and whispered,
"Contact the team leader and go to the City Lord's Mansion to gather the spiritual plants first. The rest will be handled when the team leader comes back."
The city lord and the team leader are sworn brothers, so it should be no problem to borrow some spiritual plants temporarily.
Taking a look at Mu Bei who was still unconscious, Zhan Yun gritted his teeth. As long as he could cure the young leader, everything would be worth it.
"Okay." Uncle Zhou nodded, called a few people and rushed out in a hurry.
Luo Li sent the others out, sat by the bed and silently recited the Burning Heaven Art several times.
Surrounded by flowing light, the black runes on Mu Bei's body gradually faded away, revealing his original skin color.
All that’s left is to wait for Uncle Zhou to come back.
Luo Li walked into the yard and found a stool to sit down. The mercenaries tactfully poured her a cup of tea.
Zhan Yun walked in nervously and came out soon with an excited look on his face.
"Master, thank you so much!"
Her eyes were slightly red. Mu Bei was someone she had watched grow up, and he was like a relative to her.
"Don't thank me yet." Luo Li took a sip of tea, then lowered her eyes as if she had thought of something and asked, "Is there an alchemy furnace?"
"What?" Zhan Yun looked confused, as if he didn't believe what he heard. Isn't the master an alchemist? How could he not have an alchemy furnace?
"Find an alchemy furnace." Luo Li raised her eyes and smiled. Her precious cauldron was left at home.
She is now an alchemist who doesn't even have a pot.
Zhan Yun reacted and hurriedly called the young man who was at the door, "Wu Lang, take someone to get the alchemy furnace we got from the warehouse last year."
Wu Lang's eyes were filled with disbelief. "Is it the one made of black gold ore?"
"Otherwise, could it be that?"
"But……"
Zhan Yun frowned, "But what but? Go quickly!"
Wu Lang gritted his teeth. That was the prize their mercenary group won for winning the mainland mercenary competition last year.
"Yes." Although he was reluctant, he still led people to carry the alchemy furnace over.
The alchemy furnace was lifted and placed on the ground. Its black and gold surface shone faintly in the sunlight, and it was obvious that it was an extraordinary object.
Luo Li raised her hand and stroked it obsessively, sighing inwardly that the alchemy furnace in Tianyuan Continent really had some kind of magic. She really wanted to use this alchemy furnace to refine eight or ten of it.
Alchemy furnaces made of mid- to high-quality ores are like this, so what if they were made of the legendary five-colored divine gold...
No, no, Luo Li shook her head. She couldn't think about it anymore. The five-colored divine gold had not been discovered for thousands of years. Even if she coveted it so much, she could only think about it.
"Master, is this okay?" Zhan Yun was a little nervous. She was now convinced that Luo Li was a centuries-old monster.
