Outside the city that never sleeps!
Three days have passed, and the city that never sleeps lives up to its name, with its nights being short and quickly illuminated by lights.
The incomparably handsome man possessed an otherworldly air; he had been gazing at the City That Never Sleeps for a long time.
A handsome monk sat in meditation nearby, and it was unclear how long he had been sitting there.
One resembles a stone gazing at its wife, the other a Buddha statue.
However, the alchemists from the Pill Guild on the side were not so calm.
"Daoist Fuyue, three days have passed, and there's still no news from Daoist Hongqi. We don't know what the situation is. Should we really wait any longer?"
Little did they know that this seemingly unhurried person was actually more anxious than anyone else.
He was only pretending to be calm; his heart had already flown to the city that never sleeps.
Three days have passed, and Wei Qinghe has not sent any news. It is unclear whether everything is going smoothly or if she is simply unable to send any messages.
The hand beneath the greyish-white wide sleeves clenched into a fist, "Wait a little longer..."
Those three simple words seemed to have exhausted all his strength.
He and Venerable Shichen were not alchemists, so while entering the city was easy, sneaking into the secret realm was not so simple.
He hesitated for a while, then said to Venerable Shichen, "Venerable Shichen, I'll go in and take a look first. You all wait here."
The Buddhist monk, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. He was exceptionally handsome, which made him appear even more noble amidst the lush greenery of the wilderness.
He had handsome features and looked at Daoist Fuyue with a calm expression. In his memory, Daoist Fuyue would remain calm even if the sky were to fall.
A person whose eyes and heart are only focused on the sword and the way of the sword can also become impulsive when they have emotions.
However, Fellow Daoist Wei is worth it.
"Very well, this humble monk will wait once more."
He did not object; in fact, he supported it in his heart.
However, this exposed the weaknesses of the Moon-Soothing Daoist, which would be detrimental to his future development.
Of course, not everyone can win Wei Qinghe's favor.
After speaking, Daoist Fuyue vanished from their sight.
The members of the Pill Guild looked at each other, seemingly unable to believe what had just happened.
Fuyue Daozun advised them to wait a little longer, but he himself couldn't wait and went into the city.
“Venerable Shichen, we…”
Venerable Shichen rose with a half-smile, his cool gaze falling upon the city that never sleeps, as bright as day.
"Do you fellow Daoists believe that your cultivation is above that of Daoist Fuyue?"
The members of the Pill Guild shook their heads in unison, "How can we alchemists compare to Daoist Fuyue, a sword cultivator with a top-grade ice spiritual root?"
Even if they didn't have the title of Dao Venerable, and their cultivation level was the same as Dao Venerable Fuyue, alchemists still couldn't defeat sword cultivators.
"If that's the case, what use are you going? To join the group of missing alchemists? To let Fellow Daoist Wei and Daoist Fuyue save a few more people?" Venerable Shichen didn't hold back his words.
The members of several alchemy guilds were speechless for a moment; it wasn't that they hadn't considered this issue.
Time was running out, and waiting outside was too agonizing for them.
If something were to happen to the alchemists, they would have a hard time explaining it to the guild.
Besides, those who went in before were Lingzong Hongqi Daozun and Lingzong's precious Wei Qinghe. If anything happens to Wei Qinghe because of this, their Pill Guild can't afford to compensate them.
Now even the Moon-Soothing Daoist of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect has been arrested; things are getting more and more beyond their imagination.
If anything were to happen to Daoist Fuyue, then the Pill Guild would no longer need to exist.
Furthermore, Daoist Fuyue was a key figure in the sealing of the Demonic Sect, so they dared not think any further.
...
Wei Qinghe was unaware that Daoist Fuyue had already entered the City That Never Sleeps.
She looked at the two people kneeling in front of her, and she really had a headache.
"We won't get up unless Master agrees."
The two alchemists were very stubborn. Although Wei Qinghe only mentioned it once, they gained a lot.
They all became obsessed with alchemy after entering the tower, and it was Wei Qinghe who woke them up.
Otherwise, they might spend their entire lives stuck on that level, gaining nothing in the process.
Wei Qinghe had drawn runes on their backs beforehand, which brought them back to their senses.
Fearing that the people behind them would try to take their master away, the two quickly kowtowed several more times.
Wei Qinghe sighed softly, "Get up, hurry up and make some time to refine the pills, come with me to the third floor."
Although she drew runes to calm the mind and soothe the soul, it also depends on one's own fate and comprehension.
The fact that the two of them were able to get up so quickly shows they have some skill.
"Master has agreed." The two were overjoyed and went to select medicinal herbs together, quickly getting into the zone of alchemy.
There is no one managing this floor, and no one leads you upstairs; alchemists who have finished refining their pills can go up.
Wei Qinghe had always refined medicinal liquids first, so she was a little unfamiliar with using traditional methods to refine pills. However, she had excellent talent, and even if she had never tried it before, it would not affect her pill refining.
The fragrance grew stronger, and the fire elemental power of unknown origin became more and more apparent.
Wei Qinghe had initially suspected that the tempering fire of other alchemists was too powerful, but after careful observation, she did not find any clues in the tempering fire.
Her two apprentices were also very capable, and they were quick to identify and locate medicinal herbs.
“Master, I am a member of our Pill Guild. My name is Ma Qi, and I am from the Ma family of Luoyue City.”
Another person said, "Master, I am Zheng Wangyun, the head of the Zheng family of Luohe, but I am passionate about alchemy and rarely manage family affairs."
While continuing to control the fire, Wei Qinghe pondered for a moment, then said, "My name is Wei Qinghe!"
