Chapter 352
"Your injury is almost healed, right?" Lin Xie asked Mu Yuanfeng.
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "Thanks to the Seventh Young Master, I have almost recovered."
"I'm glad you're okay. What are your plans for the future?" Lin Xie asked.
Mu Yuanfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I'm an alchemist. I heard that the Bai family has become a gathering place for alchemists, and I want to go over and take a look."
"What level of alchemist are you?" Li Fei had heard from Lin Xie that Mu Yuanfeng might be an alchemist, so he was not surprised.
"I am a low-level alchemist of level six." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Lin Xie raised his eyebrows. Mu Yuanfeng's alchemy skills were better than he expected.
Li Fei looked at Mu Yuanfeng with some disappointment and said, "He's only a low-level sixth-level alchemist! It would be better if he was a high-level seventh-level alchemist."
Lin Xie glared at Li Fei, smiled uncomfortably at Mu Yuanfeng, and said, "I'm sorry, my follower is ignorant."
Generally, masters at the level of sixth-level Martial Emperor only have fifth- or sixth-level alchemy skills. After all, there are only a few geniuses like Muchen who are at the level of seventh-level Martial Sect but are already eighth-level alchemists.
"It's okay, it's just that my alchemy skills are poor and I can't help Mr. Lin. I'm sorry to disappoint him." Mu Yuanfeng looked at Lin Xie apologetically.
Lin Xie smiled faintly and said, "No."
Lin Yu's master was only a seventh-level early-stage alchemist, but he was respected and revered by the family elders with great awe, not to mention that he was a seventh-level advanced alchemist.
His appearance was so badly damaged that only a seventh-level advanced Rejuvenating Pill would be effective. Most of the seventh-level advanced alchemists were powerful in their own area, and he simply couldn't afford to hire them.
In fact, even if he knew a seventh-level advanced alchemist, he could not gather the medicinal materials needed to refine the seventh-level advanced Fuyan Pill.
Lin Xie lowered his head and thought to himself: In fact, even if the whole family put their strength into it, they might be able to get him a level 7 advanced rejuvenation pill. It’s just that his family members are not willing to spend so much effort on him.
Sometimes, Lin Xie couldn't help but wonder, if the one who was disfigured was Lin Yu, would the family ignore it so much...
"Good people will be rewarded, Mr. Lin, your appearance will definitely recover." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Lin Xie smiled faintly, shook his head nonchalantly, and said, "It doesn't matter." He had long given up the idea of restoring his appearance.
After so many years, having seen unfaithful men and women who disliked him, Lin Xie had long thought about being alone from now on.
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Lin Xie and thought to himself: Lin Xie probably doesn't care about his appearance, but he feels that it is impossible to recover, so he just gives up.
…………
"What is the origin of the person Lin Xie rescued?" Yu Jin asked Lin Yu.
Before Lin Xie was disfigured, she looked very similar to Lin Yu, and was also pretty and charming.
Yu Jin was also moved, but in comparison, Yu Jin preferred the charming and alchemist Lin Yu.
In the city where the Yu family lived, Shuang'er's status was extremely low, and only incompetent men would marry Shuang'er. When Yu Jin and Lin Xie got engaged, they were ridiculed a lot, so Yu Jin had a deep resentment towards Lin Xie.
Lin Yu frowned and said, "That person seems to be an alchemist as well."
Yu Jin was stunned for a moment, his face a little embarrassed, "Really?"
After Lin Xie was disfigured, Yu Jin was left with only disgust towards Lin Xie. However, after all, they had been engaged, and Yu Jin still felt a little uncomfortable when Lin Xie fell in love with someone else.
Lin Yu looked at Yu Jin and said a little aggrievedly, "Brother Jin, are you still in love with Seventh Brother and are you jealous?"
Yu Jin quickly smiled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I be jealous of an ugly freak? That alchemist's vision is really strange. He's not even afraid of not being able to eat when it comes to Lin Xie."
"Seventh Brother is already pitiful enough, so don't scold him anymore." Lin Yu said.
"What level of alchemist is that person?" Yu Jin asked.
"I heard that he is a low-level alchemist of level six. However, it is rare for a low-level alchemist of level six to become as good as the man. Maybe he is just a level five alchemist." Lin Yu muttered.
Yu Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "That person's origins are unknown, and he's being so attentive to Lin Xie. I'm afraid he has ulterior motives."
Lin Yu pursed his lips and said disapprovingly: "He's just a one-star Martial Emperor, he can't make any waves."
…
"Seventh boy." An old man with a gloomy face walked towards Lin Xie and Mu Yuanfeng.
"Third Grandpa, is there something wrong?" Lin Xie asked the old man.
The old man looked at Lin Xie with a bad face and said angrily, "You told your sister that you want to auction the seventh-level rejuvenation pill?"
Lin Xie's face suddenly turned gloomy. Lin Yu stabbed him in the back again.
"I didn't." Lin Xie said indifferently.
"If you don't have it, why would your sister give up the Moon Soul Pill and buy the Fuyan Pill for you?" the old man said gloomily.
Lin Xie gritted his teeth and said, "How should I know? It's up to her to say whatever she wants."
"What's with your attitude? Your sister is willing to give up the Moon Soul Pill for you, but you don't appreciate it." The old man looked at Lin Xie with an expression that said, "How could you be so ungrateful?"
Lin Xie kept his mouth shut and said nothing. If Lin Yu was sincere, he would naturally be grateful.
The old man looked at Lin Xie's stubborn expression, sighed softly, and said earnestly: "You... Seventh boy, I know you feel wronged, but now that things have come to this, you should be more open-minded. If your sister gets the Moon Soul Pill, her chances of becoming a seventh-level alchemist in the future will be greatly increased. What a concept it would be if our family could produce a seventh-level alchemist. Seventh boy, you must put the overall situation first!"
Lin Xie clenched his fists and said in annoyance, "I know. I won't expect any rejuvenation pills. Just shoot what you need to shoot."
The old man looked at Lin Xie's ugly face and turned away.
A hint of despair flashed across Lin Xie's eyes.
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Lin Xie's expression and couldn't help but feel distressed. "Don't be sad."
Lin Xie smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'm used to it."
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Lin Xie's expression and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"There are so many alchemists gathered at the Bai family now. Maybe you can find someone to make the Fu Yan Pill for you." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Lin Xie gave a wry smile and said, "It's not that easy to make friends with a seventh-level alchemist."
"There is always a chance." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Lin Xie shook his head, and Mu Yuanfeng did not dwell on this issue any further.
…
"Who did you learn alchemy from? What level of alchemist is your master?" Li Fei asked Mu Yuanfeng expectantly.
Mu Yuanfeng tilted his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "I learned the art of alchemy by myself in the early stages, and later learned it from my son."
Li Fei looked at Mu Yuanfeng with some surprise, choked up, and said, "You have a son?"
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "Yes."
"What about his mother?" Li Fei asked nervously.
"He has been dead for many years." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Lin Xie looked at Mu Yuanfeng and said, "I'm sorry."
Mu Yuanfeng smiled indifferently and said, "It's okay."
"Did you really learn the art of alchemy from your son?" Lin Xie asked.
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "Yes!"
Li Fei asked excitedly, "Is your son a level seven alchemist?"
Mu Yuanfeng shook his head and said, "No."
Li Fei was immediately disappointed. "Your son isn't even a level seven alchemist, and you're still learning alchemy from him!"
Mu Yuanfeng smiled and said, "My son has a very high level of understanding in alchemy."
Li Fei curled his lips and thought to himself: Your son is not even a level 7 alchemist, and you are still learning alchemy from your son. This person will probably be a level 6 alchemist for the rest of his life.
"Where is your son now? You are not with your son." Lin Xie asked.
"A few years ago, he went out to explore the world." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Lin Xie was a little surprised and said, "He went out. Where is he now?"
"I haven't heard from him for several years. He should be in the Bai family's territory now." Mu Yuanfeng's eyes revealed a bit of pride and expectation.
Li Fei looked at Mu Yuanfeng and said with some disdain: "Your son hasn't contacted you for several years!" Then you, as a son, should not be very filial!
Looking at Li Fei's expression, Mu Yuanfeng knew what Li Fei was thinking. "My son, he is very filial, he is always very busy."
"Your son is so busy! He is such a busy man." Li Fei said sourly.
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "Yes!"
Li Fei looked at Mu Yuanfeng and thought to himself: What a stupid father.
"Let's not talk about me, Mr. Lin. Why is your relationship with your eighth sister so bad? Have you offended her?" Mu Yuanfeng couldn't help but ask Lin Xie.
Lin Xie smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know either." He also didn't know how he had offended his eighth sister. Lin Yu just disliked him in every way.
"How many days will it take us to get to the Bai family?" Mu Yuanfeng asked.
Lin Xie estimated and said, "It will probably take another five days."
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "The Bai family must be very busy right now."
Lin Xie nodded and said, "Yes! Many alchemists have gathered at the Bai family, wanting to join the Bai family or the Ling family and become a member of the two families."
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and muttered, "Is that so."
"Is Lin Yu's master also at the Bai family now?" Mu Yuanfeng asked.
Lin Xie nodded and said, "It should be."
"Luo He is a traitor." Li Fei said.
Lin Xie glared at Li Fei and said, "Don't talk nonsense." The Lin family forbade anyone from talking about Luo He's recent incident.
Li Fei curled his lips and whispered, "That's how it is, and I won't let anyone say it."
"What's going on?" Mu Yuanfeng asked curiously.
Li Fei said to Mu Yuanfeng with a gloating look, "Luo He was originally one of the alchemists hired by the Ling family. When the Ling family encountered trouble, he pretended to sever ties with the Ling family and expressed his loyalty to Danta. As a result..." The Ling family did not take Luo He seriously at all, and Danta did not take Luo He seriously either.
Lin Xie glared at Li Fei, and Li Fei smiled at Lin Xie.
Lin Xie smiled bitterly. Externally hired alchemists were different from the alchemists trained by the Ling family. Luo He had a relatively shallow connection with the Ling family. The two only had a cooperative relationship. However, even so, Luo He still seemed a bit ungrateful.
After the alchemists of the Bai and Ling families advanced, it was heard that Luo He regretted it deeply.
There is no way back to the Ling family. Luo He actually has the crazy idea of joining the Bai family. The two families are related by marriage and their streams connect to each other. Luo He's plan is just a joke after all.
If Luo He had done nothing when the Ling family was in danger, his treatment in the Ling family would have increased several times.
