"Teacher, it seems Elder Gu He is using the refinent of the Purple Crystal Pill as leverage...trying to force to trade away my Heavenly Fla."
Though Ye Chen's tone remained steady, a faint trace of anger lingered beneath the surface.
"If that's true," Yun Yun said with a slight frown, "then Gu He has truly disappointed ."
Her voice carried genuine displeasure.
The Yunlan Sect had supported Gu He for many years....providing resources and favors without complaint.
And now, instead of gratitude, he sought to exploit them. The thought left a bitter taste in her heart.
"Teacher, if Gu He insists on borrowing my Heavenly Fla, then I'd rather not have the Purple Crystal Pill at all."
Ye Chen's voice turned cold.
"That won't do!" Yun Yun said quickly, concern flashing across her eyes.
"Ye Chen, your cultivation has progressed far too quickly.
Without the Purple Crystal Pill to stabilize your foundation, your future advancent will be in danger.
I'll go speak with Gu He again.....perhaps he can be persuaded to return to his original terms."
Without waiting for Ye Chen to reply, Yun Yun turned and started toward the hall's exit.
"Teacher, wait!"
Ye Chen's voice stopped her mid-step.
"What is it, Ye Chen?" she asked, glancing back.
"If possible," Ye Chen said calmly, "try to get the Purple Crystal Pill's recipe from him. I'll find soone else to refine it."
"Find soone else?" Yun Yun blinked in surprise.
"Ye Chen, that pill is of the sixth grade. Do you an to say you know another sixth-grade alchemist?"
Ye Chen smiled faintly. "Teacher, the person I know isn't a sixth-grade alchemist...he's a seventh-grade one.
As long as we have the formula and ingredients, he can definitely refine the Purple Crystal Pill."
Yun Yun's expression froze for a heartbeat, disbelief flickering in her beautiful eyes.
"A… seventh-grade alchemist? Ye Chen, are you certain?"
Within the Jia Ma Empire, even Gu He.....who stood at the very peak...was only a sixth-grade alchemist.
A seventh-grade one was sothing most people in the empire would only ever hear about in legends.
"It's true," Ye Chen said with a confident nod. "Trust , Teacher.
If you can hand the formula, I promise the Purple Crystal Pill will be refined."
Yun Yun hesitated briefly, then smiled softly. "The formula for the Purple Crystal Pill… it's with ."
Her slender fingers flicked, and a faint yellow scroll appeared in her hand, its surface engraved with ancient alchemical runes.
"So the recipe was with you all along," Ye Chen said, surprised.
"Then there's no need to deal with Gu He at all."
"Ye Chen," Yun Yun said, her tone gentle but curious, "now that the formula and ingredients are ready, where is this mysterious alchemist of yours? Can you take to et him?"
"Uh…"
Ye Chen paused for a brief mont. Of course, the person he spoke of was none other than Yao Chen, whose spirit still resided within his soul. But he wasn't ready to reveal that yet.
"Teacher," Ye Chen said after a heartbeat, his tone composed, "the man I speak of is a reclusive master.
I t him by chance, and he doesn't like visitors.
It would be best if I go alone and deliver the materials myself."
"I see…" Yun Yun nodded slowly, though skepticism lingered in her eyes.
Still, part of her hoped what Ye Chen said was true....if he truly had ties to such a powerful alchemist, it could benefit both him and the Yunlan Sect greatly.
"In that case," she finally said, "take the recipe and ingredients.
Find this senior as soon as possible and have the Purple Crystal Pill refined. Do not delay any longer."
"Understood. I'll leave in a few days," Ye Chen replied, taking the scroll and pouch of precious ingredients with a solemn nod.
Truthfully, he had already planned to find an excuse to travel.
Ya Fei, in Wutan City, was now pregnant and waiting for him to officially wed her.
If he delayed much longer, rumors would begin to spread.....and he couldn't allow her to face that alone.
But marrying Ya Fei would inevitably stir resistance from the elders of the Mittel Family.
Ye Chen's plan was simple: before returning, he would head for the desert to find the Mittel Family's Supre Elder...Ice Emperor Hai Bodong.
With Hai Bodong's authority, his word alone could silence every objection within the clan.
