Chapter 1399 Ximen Wu
Chapter 1399 Ximen Wu
?
The three of them couldn't believe their ears. They didn't expect a pie to fall from heaven all of a sudden.
"Do you have enough ingredients?" Yun Lintian asked.
"We do!" Gui Yang returned to his senses and hurriedly pulled a leather bag out.
Liu Yan opened her mouth, but no word came out in the end. She watched as Yun Lintian took the bag away.
Yun Lintian set a simple stove and put a copper cauldron he got from Cai Yuan on it.
"Help me prepare the ingredients." Yun Lintian beckoned Ning Yue.
Ning Yue quickly got into action. She first cleaned the herbs with water and separated stalks and leaves before drying them with her profound energy. Her action was extremely proficient as if she had been training for years.
However, no one knew this resulted from a week of practicing.
A week ago, Yun Lintian discovered that when it came to the alchemy art, Ning Yue would comprehend extremely fast, but it was different from other arts. It was like she was born to be an alchemist.
Yun Lintian naturally wasn't stingy with her. He didn't hesitate to teach her the Record of Life. What surprised him even more was that Ning Yue could comprehend it several times faster than he. It was as if this art was made for her.
Ning Yue handed the basket full of the prepared ingredients to Yun Lintian and sat down by his side.
Yun Lintian opened the lid and threw all the ingredients into the cauldron directly before shaking the cauldron a few times.
During the process, Yun Lintian would teach Ning Yue how to control the fire and rhythm from time to time.
Ten minutes later, the entire area was filled with medicinal fragrance. With a slap, the lid opened, and Yun Lintian calmly collected the twenty pills into a jade bottle.
Yun Lintian put the cauldron away and handed the jade bottle to Liu Yan. "Done."
Liu Yan and the other two woke up from the trance. They had never seen such a fascinating pill concoction before.
Liu Yan received the jade bottle and got up, bowing her head toward Yun Lintian. "Thank you, senior. We have nothing to repay you at the moment. If senior wants us to do something, please don't hesitate to tell us."
"Yes, yes." Xun Ping and Gui Yang nodded their heads vigorously.
Yun Lintian waved his hand dismissively. "You don't have to be polite. As I said earlier. You can think of it as I am making friends with you… Besides, refining these pills is not difficult for me."
The three glanced at each other and accepted Yun Lintian's generosity in the end.
"Hurry up. Let me take a look." Gui Yang urged. He couldn't wait to open the bottle and take the pill directly.
Liu Yan rolled her eyes at him annoyingly but still opened the bottle and poured a few pills out. Immediately, three golden pills appeared in everyone's sight. This was the Moon Reaching Pill that could aid one in the breakthrough.
"This… The best-graded pill." Liu Yan and the other two were shocked by the quality of the pill.
They hurriedly looked at the rest of the pills inside the bottle and discovered all of them were of the same quality.
One had to know that even a top alchemist would find it hard to refine the best grade one. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe these best-graded pills were concocted within ten minutes.
Liu Yan and the other two looked at Yun Lintian silently. They didn't know what to say at this moment.
Although it was a Saint-rank pill, its value was not low. Especially the best-graded one. If they decided to sell it, the money would be enough for them to say in the capital city for a few years.
Yun Lintian took a sip of wine and said calmly. "Have you seen enough?"
His words startled Liu Yan and the others. They quickly grabbed their weapons and looked around vigilantly.
"Hahaha! My bad, my bad." Hearty laughter resounded from a far distance, and a young man's figure slowly appeared in everyone's sight.
Judging from his appearance, the young man must possess an extraordinary background as his entire body was adorned with luxury goods. Whether it was his robe, necklace, or bracelet, all of them were at least a divine level.
The young man fanned the jade fan in his hand while walking toward Yun Lintian's group. "I'm sorry. I was attracted by the medicinal scent and couldn't help curious about it."
Yun Lintian smiled and said. "How about a cup of wine?"
The young man cupped his fists and said. "My name is Ximen Wu. A passerby."
Yun Lintian cupped his fists and said. "Profound Pill Sect's Lin Tian."
He paused a second and glanced at the sky. "What about that senior?"
The young man, Ximen Wu, was slightly surprised. The way he looked at Yun Lintian changed completely as he said. "Leave him alone. He's just a nuisance, old man."
After hearing the conversation, Liu Yan and the other two were shocked in their hearts. They didn't even know there was another expert hiding in the dark. Thankfully, Yun Lintian reminded them first. Otherwise, they would have become cold corpses by now.
Ximen Wu unceremoniously sat on Gui Yang's seat and poured himself a cup of wine before drinking it in one gulp. "Good wine! This wine is even better than the Immortal Wine I had before."
He put the cup down and looked at Yun Lintian curiously. "Please forgive me for asking this. Are you really a disciple of the Profound Pill Sect?"
Yun Lintian spread his arms. "What else can I be?"
"Your talent in alchemy is definitely the best. Even the Divine Alchemy Association elders are not as good as you. I just find it strange that a small sect like the Profound Pill Sect can produce such a genius." Ximen Wu chuckled.
Yun Lintian took a sip of wine and said nothing.
On the side, Liu Yan and the other two didn't know what to do. They could only stand there nervously.
"I wonder where you are heading to, Brother Lin?" Ximen Wu suddenly asked.
"I am going to join the Divine Alchemy Association." Yun Lintian said truthfully.
"I see." Ximen Wu said. "I happened to know President Zhi. I can send Brother Lin there. I don't know if you want to go with me?"
