"Black Dragon Pool, Myriad Phenona Cliff."
Chu Ning naturally heard the disciples discussing and detected their hesitant tones.
At this mont, he curiously asked the elder nad Zhao:
"Are these places very dangerous?"
"There’s a certain degree of danger." The elder Zhao nodded.
"Actually, the two places aren’t far from each other; the Myriad Phenona Cliff is near the Black Dragon Pool.
The pool is a necessary route to get to the cliff, and it once housed a Tier Four Black Flood Dragon.
Even Foundation Establishnt cultivators need to be cautious when going there."
Chu Ning nodded, understanding why the Qi Refining disciples were hesitant.
Just then, Zuo Zhonghao spoke up:
"Senior Brother Chu, rest assured. I’ll go invite a few senior brothers, and surely we’ll be able to help you gather the spirit herbs from both places."
Saying this, Zuo Zhonghao was about to walk out.
"Hold on!" The elder Zhao spoke out at this mont.
"You can’t take this task."
"The Black Flood Dragon in the Black Dragon Pool has been promoted to a Tier Four Demon Beast, and the Sect has issued a task to eliminate it.
Soone already took the task and is preparing to go to the Black Dragon Pool to kill the flood dragon. If you invite them, you could also gather Black Flood Dragon Blood."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning’s eyes lit up.
If there’s Black Flood Dragon Blood from a Tier Four Black Flood Dragon, it would be greatly beneficial for his alchemy.
He imdiately asked: "Does Junior Brother Zhao know which fellow disciples will go?"
"You know the people going." The elder Zhao smiled:
"Yesterday, it was Su Yuqing from your Alchemy Pavilion and Cui Rongrong from the Artifact Refining Pavilion who ca.
They said they’d return here today to join with other senior brothers."
"Junior Sister Su?"
Chu Ning was slightly surprised, not knowing why Su Yuqing suddenly wanted to kill the Tier Four Black Flood Dragon.
"Oh, isn’t that them?"
Elder Zhao pointed to a few people who had just entered the Task Hall.
Looking over, Chu Ning first saw Su Yuqing dressed in elegant palace attire.
Next to her was a woman of relatively small stature wearing a red shirt, presumably Cui Rongrong whom elder Zhao ntioned.
Behind them were two others, one was a young man who appeared quite robust.
The other was a chubby older man in a black robe.
A few seed to sense the gaze of Chu Ning and others and looked over. The next mont, Su Yuqing led them straight over.
Su Yuqing arrived in front of Chu Ning, gracefully smiling:
"As soon as I arrived at the main peak, I heard many talking about Senior Brother Chu being at the main peak. You must have had a unique experience just now?"
Chu Ning nodded, saying: "Indeed, not quite adjusted."
Su Yuqing’s usually calm eyes flashed with light as she looked at Chu Ning:
"We of the Jiuhua Sect all consider it our duty to prosper the Sect.
You have outstanding talent in alchemy and mastery in your skills, greatly contributing to the Sect’s prosperity.
Respecting you is respecting the sect’s honor."
Saying this, Su Yuqing glanced at Chu Ning and said:
"I wonder if this explanation makes sense to Senior Brother Chu?"
Chu Ning nodded and, after a mont’s silence, did not pursue the topic further but asked:
"I heard that Junior Sister Su and others are preparing to go to the Black Dragon Pool to kill the Black Flood Dragon. Is it true?"
"How did Senior Brother Chu find out about this?" Su Yuqing was sowhat surprised upon hearing this.
The elder Zhao explained on the side.
Su Yuqing then realized: "I see, the four of us indeed plan to invite another fellow disciple to the Black Dragon Pool.
My Sister Cui was interested in the artifact refining materials from the Tier Four Black Flood Dragon, and I also needed the Black Flood Dragon Gall to refine an elixir.
Therefore, we invited Senior Brothers Lu Jiakang and Dai Tong."
Su Yuqing spoke while pointing to the chubby elder and the robust young man respectively.
Then her gaze fell on Chu Ning.
"We considered inviting one more person for safety.
Since Senior Brother Chu needs the spirit dicine around the Black Dragon Pool, would you be interested in joining us on this journey?
Once we’ve killed the Tier Four Black Flood Dragon, we’ll accompany Senior Brother to the Myriad Phenona Cliff."
Upon hearing Su Yuqing’s proposal, Chu Ning pondered for a mont.
Originally, he intended to publish a task through the Task Hall to see if he could obtain several alchemy materials.
But now, knowing that three alchemy materials could be gathered from nearby, it’s ideal.
If Su Yuqing’s hunting expedition is well-staffed, he could certainly ask them to help retrieve the Black Flood Dragon Blood and Concentration Grass.
As for the absence of the Earth Store Flower, he’d first refine an elixir.
However, given the suggestion, Chu Ning felt slightly tempted.
A Tier Four Demon Beast only has Foundation Establishnt Late Stage strength, and now with so many people, apart from himself, four others were Middle Stage, and elder Lu Jiakang was Late Stage.
Chu Ning considered the danger minimal, so he nodded and said:
"That works, I’ll go along for the trip."
Su Yuqing, hearing Chu Ning’s agreent, showed a gleeful expression.
Chu Ning imdiately instructed Wang Ping to return alone.
The group then left the Task Hall together, as Su Yuqing reintroduced Chu Ning to the others.
Lu Jiakang and Dai Tong both greeted him with smiles, addressing Chu Ning as Senior Brother.
After all, Chu Ning’s status as the Chief Steward of the Alchemy Pavilion was recognized.
Dai Tong called Chu Ning Senior Brother, and he acknowledged it, but when Lu Jiakang addressed him the sa, Chu Ning refused to accept it.
