Ling Xiang was surprised to hear that someone from the Dan Palace was visiting, holding a black token of an elder. "We don't have any personal or business dealings with the Dan Palace, right?"
Feng Xiaoyun shook her head. "Currently, there isn't one. However, the Dan Palace holds a very high status here, and it's the dream destination of all alchemists. Since they've taken the initiative to come to us, you should seize this opportunity. If you can make friends with a powerful alchemist, you might even have a master."
Ling Xiang felt that even if he didn't want to become his disciple, he should at least not make enemies. Moreover, the other party was an elder-level figure, so he went to greet him personally:
"I don't know which distinguished guest from the Dan Palace is visiting. Please forgive me for any neglect."
The masked butler respectfully opened the car door, and Helian Xiao also got out of the car calmly while wearing a mask.
He looked at the girl who spoke.
The girl's face was covered with a veil, and the scars revealed were very eye-catching. They were undoubtedly scars caused by her shamelessness.
However, the girl in front of me is calm, confident and graceful. It seems that the scar has not affected her mentality at all, which is quite commendable.
The most important thing is that he can feel that her destiny is very strong, the best he has ever seen in his life. Even if such a person is an ordinary person, his life will be smooth sailing.
The girl in front of him was also a cultivator. With such good fortune from heaven, her achievements in this life would surely be great.
"Is Ling Xiang here?"
When Helian Xiao was observing Ling Xiang, Ling Xiang was also observing Helian Xiao.
The man in front of him had an extraordinary temperament, with a faint fragrance flowing from his body. His eyes were gentle, but people could not help but feel awe at a glance. He was obviously a big boss. Ling Xiang respectfully bowed as a junior:
"That's me. May I know what your name is, senior? What do you want from me?"
"I was asked to come and help Miss Ling."
Anyone who can call himself the deity must have reached the level of Spiritual Master or be the Lord of a region. Ling Xiang didn't think he had such ability to attract such a powerful figure, so he didn't want to neglect him and invited him to the living room.
Ling Xiang personally brewed a pot of tea and offered it with both hands: "Senior, please enjoy."
Helian Xiao was very patient. He watched Ling Xiang finish brewing the tea. He waved his hand to lift the teacup, took a sip slowly, and his eyes lit up: "The tea is good."
This tea is a spiritual tea that has just matured in the space under Xiaoqi's careful care. You can't buy tea with such rich spiritual power outside, so it is naturally good.
Ling Xiang also took a sip. The spiritual tea entered her stomach, and she felt very refreshed. She asked politely, "I wonder who asked you to help me, senior, and what do you want to do for me?"
Helian Xiao intended to test Ling Xiang, so he took out the alchemy cauldron and started to make the elixir.
Ling Xiang didn't hesitate and watched the boss making the elixir carefully.
Helian Xiao is one of the few alchemy masters in the entire continent. When he was refining the elixir, he seemed to be integrated into the world, and his every move seemed to be in accordance with the way of heaven. He attracted Ling Xiang deeply at first sight.
Ling Xiang learned how to make pills on her own. Aunt Yun could occasionally give her some pointers, but she couldn't help her much, so she basically had to rely on her own understanding.
Seeing a true master alchemist personally refining the elixir now was like opening a new door. I gradually understood some of the things I hadn't understood in the alchemy books...
Until Helian Xiao finished refining the elixir, Ling Xiang was still immersed in his understanding of alchemy and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
Helian Xiao put the refined pills into the jade bottle, and waited quietly for Ling Xiang to wake up without any hurry.
After a while, Ling Xiang woke up. It was almost dusk, and Ling Xiang realized that he had been in enlightenment in front of an outsider for nearly half an hour.
"Congratulations." Helian Xiao stroked his beard with a satisfied smile on his face. Seeing that he could get an epiphany after refining the elixir for the first time, it seemed that he had found such a good seedling. It seemed that he had found the person who could refine the heart-protecting elixir of that quality.
Ling Xiang smiled sheepishly and explained, "Senior, I'm sorry, your alchemy was so fascinating that I don't know why I got distracted..."
Helian Xiao waved his hand and handed the refined pill to Ling Xiang: "Take this pill, and the scar on your face will be gone."
"Is this what you want to help me with, Senior?"
Helian Xiao nodded.
Ling Xiang suddenly understood.
Thinking about the day when Xuanyuan Qi mentioned the scar on her face, she felt that this big boss was most likely invited by Xuanyuan Qi.
She could refuse Xuanyuan Qi, but if she refused this time, there was no guarantee that Xuanyuan Qi would not personally deliver the pills to her next time.
After weighing the pros and cons, Ling Xiang accepted the pill. Although she didn't need to take it to remove the scar, it would be useful for research. "Senior, please tell that kind person. Ling Xiang is very grateful."
Helian Xiao now has everything he needs except a disciple that suits his taste. Ling Xiang, at a young age, has already reached the level of a spiritual master. He has excellent luck and a seemingly good talent for alchemy. This is a perfect opportunity to test her and see if she is qualified to be his disciple.
"I see that the young lady has a talent for alchemy. I wonder where her teacher is from?"
Ling Xiang didn't want to reveal that he could make pills, but he was distracted just now and was discovered by the big boss in front of him. In front of such a big boss, hiding it would not only be futile, but would also reduce his favorability in his heart. Ling Xiang simply confessed:
"I don't have a master, so I'm all self-taught from the books in my home."
"I wonder if you have passed the alchemy exam? What level are you at now?"
"Never." Ling Xiang never cared about qualifications and had never taken the exam.
Helian Xiao took out a jade slip, wrote a few words on it, and sent it to Ling Xiang with his spiritual power:
"Without the qualifications of an alchemist, you cannot sell pills. Moreover, some herbs are not available on the market and can only be purchased through the internal channels of alchemists. Here is my letter of introduction. You may want to try the Dan Palace. Having the qualifications of an alchemist will make things much easier."
Ling Xiang couldn't refuse the good intentions and accepted the jade slip: "Thank you, senior."
"Girl, you and I are destined to meet. See you next time." After saying this, Helian Xiao disappeared from the spot.
As soon as Helian Xiao left, Feng Xiaoyun appeared and asked with concern, "I can't see through this person's cultivation level, but he must be a Spiritual Master. What do you think of his appearance, young lady?"
"They should be invited by Prince Huai. They don't seem to be hostile to us at the moment, but we still have to be careful. We, the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion, can't afford to provoke such a powerful person at the moment."
Feng Xiaoyun was a little worried: "Prince Huai is a little too concerned about the young lady."
Ling Xiang felt the same way, but it was enough for her to be the only one worrying about this kind of trouble:
"Aunt Yun, you don't know how capricious Xuanyuan Qi is. When he's happy, he'd give away a mountain of gold, but when he's unhappy, he'd kill someone without blinking an eye. With someone as unpredictable as him, who knows what he's up to? It's best to just deal with his moves and not overthink it."
Seeing that Ling Xiang didn't take it to heart, Feng Xiaoyun felt relieved: "It's good that the young lady is clear in her mind. The most important thing now is to improve her strength as quickly as possible."
"Yeah." Ling Xiang put away the jade slip and turned back to practice.
