85: Chapter 85: eting Elder Ling Again 85: Chapter 85: eting Elder Ling Again In the major taverns, there were seas of people, and by evening, finding an empty spot was difficult.
At this mont, most of the people inside the taverns were young, the scions of various factions in Yunge City, as well as so disciples of Yun Chu Academy.
Each evening, many would co out to enjoy themselves.
Mo Wangchen did not pay much attention to all this; what mattered most to him now was improving his own cultivation.
In Fangtian City, he might have been able to while away ti leisurely, but now, stepping into the County Capital, with its countless large factions, his current cultivation appeared insignificant in front of truly powerful families.
Having lived a life again, Mo Wangchen understood clearly that no matter where one was, the power of speech always lay in the hands of the strong!
Soon, he arrived at the Alchemy Pavilion.
Like other places, the Alchemy Pavilion at night was noticeably busier.
“Huh?”
However, just as he stepped through the Alchemy Pavilion’s doors, he saw an elder about to head up the stairs to the second floor.
Upon seeing Mo Wangchen, the elder leapt in front of him without a word, “Ah, young man, I’ve finally found you!”
Mo Wangchen instinctively stepped back, but upon recognizing the elder’s face, he froze, “So it’s Elder Ling…”
This elder was none other than Liang Yuqiu and Zhang Hao’s master.
According to Mo Wangchen’s estimation, the elder was at least a Returning Ruins Realm expert, an unparalleled master within the entire Yun Country!
From Zhang Hao’s earlier words, Mo Wangchen had heard that Elder Ling was rely a nominal Guest Elder in Yun Chu Academy, rarely appearing within the academy.
Mo Wangchen knew that people like this were those who remained hidden in the city!
However, he vaguely felt that Elder Ling was highly influential within the Alchemy Pavilion.
He wondered what identity the elder held in the pavilion.
“Elder Ling is looking for ?”
Seeing Elder Ling’s excited expression, Mo Wangchen smiled and said, “I am a disciple of Yun Chu Academy.
If you needed sothing, why not send Senior Sister Liang to find ?”
“Oh?
You’re a disciple of the academy?”
Upon hearing this, Elder Ling was taken aback and replied awkwardly, “I wasn’t aware, after obtaining the Life Extension Pill’s recipe that day, I haven’t seen that girl, Yu Qiu, again…”
Uh!
Mo Wangchen was speechless.
No wonder Zhang Hao had been in the academy for so many days without eting the elder; even Liang Yuqiu hadn’t seen him.
“The alchemy recipe shouldn’t have any issues, right?
Why is Elder Ling looking for ?” Mo Wangchen asked curiously.
“There’s a problem!”
To his surprise, Elder Ling suddenly grew serious, “A big problem!”
“What problem?” Mo Wangchen frowned.
He had confird that recipe many tis on that day; it should have been impossible for there to be a problem.
“Ha!
I successfully concocted your Life Extension Pill and gave it to an old friend to consu.
That old man seed to beco much younger overnight, full of energy.
Now, he’s pestering every day for more.
Don’t you think that’s a problem?”
Elder Ling spoke with fiery excitent in his eyes, clearly highly affirming the pill’s effect!
“Just this?”
Mo Wangchen was at a loss, “What kind of problem is that?”
He chuckled bitterly, “The Life Extension Pill, though just a third-grade pill, is rare enough to extend life by ten years.
Its effects are only once; consuming it again would be akin to snacking.
Your friend seems rather greedy…”
“Haha!”
Elder Ling burst into laughter, “That’s exactly what I told him, but he refuses to believe it.”
“My friend happens to be visiting the Alchemy Pavilion today, upstairs.
Are you interested in eting him?” Elder Ling suddenly suggested.
“This…”
Mo Wangchen was hesitant.
Elder Ling was a Returning Ruins Realm character, and how could his friend be simple?
Knowing such figures would undoubtedly be beneficial, but typically, the more powerful soone was, the prouder they beca, unlike Elder Ling who was an exception.
“Isn’t it inappropriate?” After a mont of silence, Mo Wangchen shook his head, not believing he could interact with such beings with his current cultivation.
Why would soone of such stature even take notice of soone rely at the Vein Condensation Realm?
“What’s inappropriate?” Elder Ling’s eyes widened, “You exchanged the Life Extension Pill with , and that old guy has already figured out that the recipe wasn’t mine.
He’s quite interested in the person who possesses the recipe…”
“What kind of person is your friend?” Mo Wangchen asked with a frown.
“Hehe!
You’ll know once you et him…”
With that, ignoring whether Mo Wangchen was willing, Elder Ling pulled him upstairs.
The Alchemy Pavilion had a total of five floors, and only the second-grade alchemists of the Alchemist Alliance were allowed above the third floor.
But this ti, Elder Ling directly took Mo Wangchen to the fifth floor.
This surprised Mo Wangchen; the fifth floor was the Alchemy Pavilion’s most mysterious place.
It was said that not many in the Alchemist Alliance had access to it, indicating Elder Ling’s significant influence within the Alliance!
In one of the fifth-floor rooms, Elder Ling took Mo Wangchen inside.
Soon, he saw an elderly man with white hair sitting inside.
From the surface, the elder seed plagued with ailnts, but as he approached, Mo Wangchen noticed the elder had a rosy complexion, full of vitality.
This must be the person who consud the Life Extension Pill…
However, after seeing the elder’s complexion, Mo Wangchen’s brows furrowed slightly, as beneath the rosy appearance, he saw another aura.
The elder seed to have been poisoned long ago.
“Old man, why are you only coming now?”
Upon seeing Elder Ling enter, the elderly man complained with displeasure, glancing at Mo Wangchen and assuming he was rely an attendant of Elder Ling, thus not paying much attention.
“Hey!
Didn’t I just get here?
What’s the rush?”
Elder Ling spoke nonchalantly.
To the elder’s surprise, instead of sitting down imdiately, Elder Ling ushered Mo Wangchen to a seat.
“And this young friend is…”
The elderly man was astonished.
He knew full well his own identity and Elder Ling’s.
There wasn’t a youth in Yunge City’s younger generation who could be their equal, let alone one whom Elder Ling personally ushered in to sit with them…
