Hong ng Fang Immortal, a character at the pinnacle of the pyramid among the Alchemists of the mainland, was not only outstanding in dical skills but also knowledgeable about Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Divination, and Star Formation.
However, since disappearing for unknown reasons thousands of years ago, there has been no trace of Hong ng Fang Immortal in the world.
So say that he left behind a Hong ng Notebook, which encompassed all his lifeti knowledge.
Whoever acquires the Hong ng Notebook potentially becos the second Hong ng Fang Immortal on the mainland.
For countless years, Alchemists across the mainland have been in search of the Hong ng Notebook, but unfortunately, no one has ever found it.
Could it be that this re Third-Rank Female Alchemist in front of us has such a great opportunity to obtain a fragnt of the Hong ng Notebook?
Master Long Yu was only skeptical for a mont, but then he thought that if Ye Lingyue had not really seen the fragnt, how could an Alchemist of her level know about such an extraordinary person as Hong ng Fang Immortal.
After all, those who know about the existence of Fang Immortal Level are at least Eighth and Ninth Rank Level Alchemists or Fang Venerate Level figures.
Thinking again about Ye Lingyue’s Dragon Saliva Needle and Siase Ghost Smoke, Master Long Yu almost completely believed her words.
"The little girl just now, I too was out of line. Hehe, speaking of which, I am considered your senior as well, being President Liao’s senior brother. You may address as Uncle Long." Master Long Yu’s words almost made Ye Lingyue burst out laughing.
This old senior really was unpredictable, one mont fierce and scolding, the next suddenly playing the role of an Uncle.
Ye Lingyue could guess, it must have been because of the Hong ng Notebook.
"Uncle Long, alright. Uncle Long, I haven’t yet reported to the Alchemist Association’s registration desk. I don’t know if there’s a way from here to get to the sixteenth floor?" Ye Lingyue brought this up, glancing left and right, appearing anxious to report.
Upon hearing this, Master Long Yu beca anxious.
This little girl, who had a fragnt of the Hong ng Notebook, must not fall into the hands of other Eighth and Ninth Rank Alchemists.
"By coming here to , consider your report done. Little girl, I see you are intelligent and bright. Why not follow and learn Alchemy from now on? New recruits to the Alchemist Tower must undergo training and follow a master. As long as you acknowledge as your master, and follow , nobody will dare to bully you in the future." Master Long Yu’s standing in the Alchemist Tower was at the Taishan Beidou Level.
He was highly discerning and in these years, had sternly not taken a single disciple.
Now, he covets the fragnt of the Hong ng Notebook in Ye Lingyue’s possession, desperately wanting to take her as a disciple, pondering how he could deceive her to hand over the fragnt one day.
"Take you as my master? Uncle Long, what benefits would that bring ?" Ye Lingyue did not imdiately agree but instead asked a counter-question.
"So many advantages. For example, you are still in the Postnatal Realm and need a lot of Elixir Pills. In the future, your master can refine a pile of Elixir Pills for you to eat like jelly beans." Master Long Yu thought briefly, then took out several bottles of Elixir Pills and forcefully stuffed them into Ye Lingyue’s hands.
New Alchemists joining the Xia Capital Alchemist Association typically receive the most basic alchemy materials for free. To acquire Blue Striped Elixir Pills above Grade, one either must purchase them at a high price or accumulate rit Points by working for the Alchemist Tower.
Even so, the exchange was only possible for Blue Striped Elixirs below Fourth-grade.
The Elixir Pills Master Long Yu gave to Ye Lingyue were mostly Blue Striped Red Sun Pills and so Beauty Elixirs, items that could cause the top-tier innate level masters and noblewon of the entire Xia Capital to fervently seek them.
Seeing that Ye Lingyue had taken the Elixir Pills but still had not nodded her agreent, Master Long Yu beca anxious.
"Girl, why haven’t you agreed yet? Please, be my disciple."
"Uncle Long, actually, these elixirs aren’t very useful to . You know, I am a Postnatal Martial Artist, and I don’t need the Red Sun Pill. As for the Youthful Elixir, I’m only fourteen, I don’t need to preserve my youth." Ye Lingyue said with a look of disdain.
Although disdainful, she still neatly gathered up all the elixirs.
The implication was that these Blue Striped Yellow Pattern Third and Fourth-grade Elixirs were of no use to her.
Uncle Long suddenly choked up, feeling a throb in his temples as he felt sohow played by the young girl in front of him.
"What do you want then?" Uncle Long secretly felt the sting, worried the girl might ask for Fifth-grade or Sixth-grade elixirs.
"Uncle, actually, I don’t need so many high-quality elixirs. I need so poison." Ye Lingyue said calmly.
"Poison?" Uncle Long’s mouth twitched.
"Like the kind that causes soone to bleed from seven orifices and die within seven steps—a highly deadly poison." Ye Lingyue said with animated enthusiasm.
"What?" Uncle Long almost spewed blood and collapsed.
He, a Nine Rank Alchemist, too lazy to refine Blue Pattern Xuanyin Elixirs, only to have this young girl asking for ridiculous poisons and toxic plants.
Uncle Long secretly chanted in his heart, enduring for the sake of the fragnted pages of the Hong ng Notebook.
"Hey, Uncle Long. You saw today, in the tower, I was bullied badly. That Nangong Qinglin and those Female Alchemists, each looking ferocious as if I owe them loads of money. Without so poisonous herbs for self-defense, I might not even see tomorrow’s sun." Ye Lingyue lanted with a worried look.
"What, soone dared to bully you? What was their na, Nangong Qinglin? Wait, let Master take revenge for you." The mont Uncle Long heard this, he was fiercely enraged, determined to severely teach Nangong Qinglin a lesson for not seeing clearly.
"That might not be a good idea, Master, from what I’ve heard, she is the daughter of General Jin Jian; her family’s power is imnse." Ye Lingyue appeared extrely apprehensive.
"What’s there to fear? Even if the sky falls, I’ll support it for you, just wait and watch the drama unfold."
Ye Lingyue was waiting just for Uncle Long to say this.
Uncle Long searched his entire Refining room, handing over anything even remotely related to "poison" to Ye Lingyue, which surprisingly included a few Poison Grasses useful for Yan Che’s body refinent; Ye Lingyue was quite pleased.
"Master above, please accept your disciple’s bow." Ye Lingyue knew when to stop while she was ahead, and planned to slowly "extort" more from Uncle Long after formally becoming his disciple.
"That’s more like it, hehe, good disciple, look, your master has already given you a eting gift, can you show Master the fragnt of the Hong ng Notebook?" Uncle Long looked at Ye Lingyue with a pleading face.
"The page has long since been damaged. But I still rember so, I’ll copy what I can recall for Master to see." Ye Lingyue said, and began to transcribe a portion.
Once Ye Lingyue finished writing, Uncle Long, having obtained the fragnt, clung to it and wouldn’t let go. He did not even bother to reply when Ye Lingyue took her leave, casually allowing the Horned Flood Dragon to escort her down.
Unlike the earlier debacle at the Alchemist Tower, this ti her exit was much more comfortable.
It must be said, Ye Lingyue was quite intrigued by the Puppet Beast Horned Flood Dragon crafted by Uncle Long, but according to him, she needed to reach the level of Seven Rank Alchemist before she could refine puppets.
For now, Ye Lingyue could only put aside the thought of refining puppets and headed back to the Lan Residence.
