Chapter 235
Ye Shi played with the dagger in his hand with nostalgia. This dagger, named Longquan, was made by a weapon refiner from the Xuanfeng Empire.
It was not long after he met Muchen that year that Muchen bought the first official gift for Ye Shi at an auction.
From Ye Shi's current perspective, this dagger was made of mediocre materials and was roughly cast, so it would break easily.
However, because it was the first gift Muchen gave him, Ye Shi had always kept it carefully.
Ye Shi looked at the dagger in his hand, and scenes from the past with Muchen came to his mind. Ye Shi's tears could not stop rolling down from his eyes.
"Mu Chen, where are you? They all bully Shi Tou. Shi Tou misses you so much! When will you come to find Shi Tou?" Ye Shi murmured, and crystal tears rolled down on the dagger.
Ye Shi lowered his head, the longing in his heart growing stronger and stronger.
"Ye Shi." There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Ye Shi quickly wiped away his tears.
When He Jingyue walked in, she noticed that Ye Shi's face looked a little strange, but she didn't ask any further questions. "Ye Shi, you've been here for so long, is there any elixir you need? We have many powerful alchemists in Zhongzhou, and we also have many elixirs that can help with cultivation!"
Ye Shi shook his head, a sweet smile appeared on his face, and said: "No, I have it."
He Jingyue asked puzzledly: "You have?"
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes! Mu Chen, he has already prepared it for me."
Ye Shi waved his hand, and more than a dozen bottles of pills appeared in front of He Jingyue.
The resources in Zhongzhou are much richer than those in the outside world. He Jingyue is the granddaughter of the master of the Formation Tower and has a noble status. Naturally, she would not covet his elixir. Therefore, Ye Shi took out the elixir without any scruples.
He Jingyue was shocked when she saw the pills Ye Shi took out. There were many kinds of pills with different functions. They were all beneficial to Emperor Wu. The most important thing was that these pills were of top quality.
Ye Shi actually has so many pills in his hands, no wonder his strength has increased so quickly.
If you take too much of poor quality pills, it will cause pill poisoning in your body. There is no such concern for top quality pills. However, top quality pills can only be made by extremely powerful alchemists.
"Where did you get this medicine?" He Jingyue asked with a frown. Even she couldn't help but be tempted by these medicines!
Ye Shi's eyes were extremely gentle, "Mu Chen gave it to me."
Muchen, it was Muchen again. Could it be that there really was such a person, and he wasn't just Ye Shi's imagination?
"The pills refined by Mu Chen are all top-grade pills!" He Jingyue asked curiously.
Ye Shi shook his head and said, "Of course not. Although Muchen is very powerful, the pills he refines are of medium and high quality. There are relatively few top-quality pills. However, Muchen treats Shitou well. He sells the medium and high quality ones and gives the top quality ones to Shitou.
He Jingyue frowned. According to Ye Shi, Muchen was about the same age as him. Could someone the same age as Ye Shi actually be an alchemist who could refine a variety of sixth-grade top-grade elixirs? Unfortunately... no matter how advanced Muchen's alchemy skills were, it was impossible for him to be transported here through the Alchemy Tower.
"Isn't there anyone teleported here from Danta? Mu Chen's alchemy skills are obviously so good." Ye Shi said in confusion.
He Jingyue looked at Ye Shi's expectant face, and for some reason, a feeling of guilt welled up in her heart.
"No news yet." He Jingyue said in a dry voice.
Ye Shi lowered his head, his eyes filled with disappointment.
…………
Bai family.
"Master Chenxing, Miss Wu Feng from the Wu family is here to visit." A servant walked in and said.
Bai Chenxing raised his eyebrows, a glint flashing in his eyes, "Wu Feng? I haven't seen her for a long time, let her in."
Wu Feng walked in, looked at Bai Chenxing, and said with a smile: "Long time no see!"
Bai Chenxing smiled and said, "It's been a while. I heard that you unearthed another relic and made a lot of money."
Wu Feng sighed softly and said helplessly, "It's just a small business! How can there be such a huge sum? I lost several people for that relic. Although the exterior of the relic is decorated with an ancient formation, the items inside are pitifully few. I almost lost money."
"I heard that you asked a newcomer from the Formation Tower to take action? Why didn't you ask the Bai family?" Bai Chenxing asked lightly, stroking the teacup in his hand.
Wu Feng shrugged and said, "Inviting Ye Shi was just a side job, but I didn't expect him to become the main force. I thought Ruoxue could break the formation, but she didn't expect that she would be helpless against the seventh-level ancient formation."
Bai Chenxing leaned quietly in the chair, and his expression did not change when he heard Xia Ruoxue's name.
Wu Feng glanced at Bai Chenxing with some annoyance, "Ye Shi is cheap! The formation masters of your Bai family are worth so much! What I earn is not even enough to pay them."
"Cheap, how cheap?" Bai Chenxing asked.
"Two million medium-grade Yuanshi." Wu Feng stretched out two fingers and said.
Bai Chenxing nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Two million mid-grade Yuanshi to break an ancient seventh-level formation is indeed cheap. After all these years, you are still so good at deceiving children."
Wu Feng smiled sheepishly and said, "I gave him an extra million. Speaking of which, Ye Shi is quite good. Even Bai Yi from your Bai family is probably a bit inferior to him."
Bai Chenxing raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "You think so highly of Ye Shi?"
"His bloodline is somewhat special. I'm afraid that, like me, he is not a pure human. When I saw him, I felt close to him." Wu Feng smiled and said frankly.
"He has the blood of ancient demon beasts?" Bai Chenxing asked casually, holding his chin.
Wu Feng shook his head and said calmly, "It doesn't look like the blood of a demon beast, it looks a bit like the blood of a spirit race."
"The Eldar are a very mysterious race. It's said that they are no different from ordinary people, except that they give birth to boys or twins, and their pregnancy period is longer than that of humans."
"The qualifications of the spirit people are good and bad. It is said that there is a kind of awakened spirit who can predict fate and change destiny. The spirit people have been extinct for a long time. I am not sure if Ye Shi is one of them."
Bai Chenxing looked at Wu Feng and said, "You've said so much, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Ye Shi is a twin! Don't you want to persuade the younger generation of your Bai family to pursue him? If they get him back, your Bai family will make a lot of money." Wu Feng said mischievously.
Bai Chenxing smiled nonchalantly and said, "Even if you want to pursue her, you have to make sure she's interested!"
"What exactly do you think about you and Ruoxue?" Wu Feng endured it for a while and finally spoke.
Bai Chenxing said calmly: "What happened between Ruoxue and me is in the past."
"Since it's over, why have you been alone for so many years?" Wu Feng frowned.
Bai Chenxing shook his head and said, "I have always been single and have nothing to do with her. If you really want to do good for her, then persuade her to find someone else."
Wu Feng looked at Bai Chenxing, frowned, but said nothing in the end.
…………
Because of He Xian's warning, Ye Shi has been staying in the formation tower to practice and improve his strength. Ye Shi's strength quickly reached the four-star Martial Emperor realm.
"Your strength is improving so fast." He Jingyue looked at Ye Shi and couldn't help but say.
Bai Yi of the Bai family is now a five-star Martial Emperor. Judging from Ye Shi's progress, he should be able to catch up with Bai Yi soon. If Ye Shi's cultivation level reaches that of Bai Yi, I wonder what Bai Yi's expression will be.
Ye Shi forced a smile and said, "I need to improve my strength quickly. Only when I am stronger can I find Mu Chen sooner."
He Jingyue smiled helplessly and said, "Why don't you take a look around my formation tower? You've been here for so long, but you haven't really had a good look around our formation tower yet."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay!"
A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the strength of the Formation Tower is not as strong as that of the all-powerful Bai family, it is still a force with a Martial Master in charge, and is far beyond the reach of any force in the outside world.
Ye Shi met many formation masters along the way.
"This is the bounty pavilion of the Formation Tower!" Ye Shi said with interest.
"Yes!" He Jingyue nodded.
Ye Shi's eyes darted around with interest, "What is that?" Seeing the bounty at the top of the list, Ye Shi's heart was pounding, but his face remained calm.
"It's the Bai family's bounty, the bounty for the Bai family's ancestral formation book." He Jingyue said.
"Is that ancestral formation book very powerful? Look at this image, it's in tatters!" Ye Shi asked.
"Of course it's powerful. Legend has it that the book on formation techniques is all-encompassing and records all kinds of advanced formation knowledge. It is the number one divine book in the formation world. The image is tattered because such a book of inheritance requires the bloodline of the Bai family to open it." A hint of admiration flashed in He Jingyue's eyes.
"Mr. Bai, can everyone open this book?" Ye Shi asked curiously.
"How is that possible? Only the purest bloodline of the Bai family can open it. In the hands of ordinary people, it is just an ordinary book. The Bai family has passed it down to the present day, and only one person, Bai Chenxing, can open this book." He Jingyue said.
Ye Shi suddenly clenched his fists. Bai Chenxing, it was Bai Chenxing again.
"Is Bai Chenxing the only one who can do it? What about the other direct descendants of the Bai family?" Ye Shi asked.
He Jingyue frowned and said, "I heard that only Bai Chenxing can open it. The Bai family has been passed down for dozens of generations, and their bloodline is no longer what it used to be. Bai Chenxing retraced his ancestor's bloodline and was lucky enough to open the formation book."
Ye Shi frowned and asked, "How come the book disappeared?"
"It was lost by Bai Chenxing." He Jingyue said.
Ye Shi frowned and asked in confusion, "Bai Chenxing lost it, so didn't he go looking for it?"
He Jingyue shook her head and said, "No, Bai Chenxing, although he is very powerful and has great array skills, has a very strange personality."
Ye Shi frowned, looking at the bounty of 10,000 high-grade Yuanshi on the bounty list, and couldn't help feeling a surge of emotion. 10,000, so many Yuanshi, should be enough for him to go back and bring Muchen back, but... the Bai family is in such a mess, these guys won't default on their debt, right?
How did that book end up in Ye Xun's hands? According to Uncle Chen, his mother and father had never mentioned this formation book before, and they might not even know it existed. How could Ye Xun have something that his mother and father didn't know about? Was this book lost from Bai Chenxing? Why didn't Bai Chenxing look for it?
The book that only Bai Chenxing, a direct descendant of the Bai family, can open can actually be opened with his own blood.
Ye Shi gritted his teeth and felt an urge to find Bai Chenxing to ask him clearly. However, when he thought of Bai Yi who always helped Zhuang Yu to deal with him, Bai Jinle who looked down on him, and Bai Lifeng who coveted his eyes, Ye Shi backed down again. The Bai family members were all like that, and Bai Chenxing was not much better.
