Due to the previous incident with Lin Hong, Xu Fan already has a fairly good relationship with Yi Lao. At this mont, Xu Fan smiled and replied to Yi Lao, "Why do your words sound like sothing is destined to happen to ?"
Yi Lao waved his hand, still looking at Xu Fan with great interest, as if observing a rare treasure. He asked Xu Fan, "Xu Fan, have you taken the Mind Shielding Pill?"
Xu Fan had already prepared his words, "I thought about it all night, but eventually decided not to take it, it's too risky."
Disappointnt flashed in Yi Lao's eyes, but unlike the old man in the library who tested Xu Fan, Yi Lao sincerely advised Xu Fan, "That's right, you have excellent talent and a resolute character, your future achievents will surely not be low. Rember not to be greedy and reckless."
Xu Fan continually expressed his gratitude, and Yi Lao's attitude further strengthened Xu Fan's resolve to conceal the cultivation of his Divine Sense. These old folks seed very interested in people who cultivated Divine Sense.
But Yi Lao was indeed a good person; despite being strangers, he has helped Xu Fan a lot and sincerely advised him all the ti.
"Alright, aren't you going to practice alchemy? Go ahead, I'll watch over here by myself."
While saying this, Yi Lao secretly winked at Xu Fan, showing so mischievousness of an elder, making Xu Fan feel amused and helpless.
Following Song Ling'er, Xu Fan entered the back door of the Elixir Pharmacy, walked through a long corridor, and stepped into an extrely magnificent building.
As they walked, Song Ling'er introduced to Xu Fan, "This is the Alchemy Pavilion. Alchemists hold noble status and prefer quietness, almost everyone has their own area, which is why the Pavilion is so grand."
Xu Fan nodded slightly, yet he pondered the aning behind Yi Lao's earlier wink.
Did Yi Lao see through his lie? Or was there another implication?
While Xu Fan was contemplating, Song Ling'er had already led him to the Alchemy Pavilion, took the herbs, and entered an alchemy room, locking the door.
Seeing Song Ling'er's action, Xu Fan showed a bit of surprise.
What does this young lady want to do? If it's rely for alchemy, there seems to be no need to bring him here, right?
Could it be…
Facing Xu Fan's puzzled gaze, an embarrassed blush flashed across Song Ling'er's doll-like face, making the situation seem liable to misunderstanding.
However, Song Ling'er quickly cald her emotion and asked Xu Fan tentatively, "Your surna is Xu? The Hidden World Families seem not to have anyone with the surna Xu. I'm curious how you got your points. Of course, it's just personal interest, if you're not comfortable answering, feel free not to."
Originally, Xu Fan intended to casually brush off the question, but looking at Song Ling'er's earnest expression and recalling Yi Lao's deliberate wink, a thought suddenly struck him.
If it was just refining Elixirs, Song Ling'er wouldn't necessarily have him co along, and Yi Lao's attitude seed peculiar, as if purposely arranging a relatively private space for him and Song Ling'er.
Could Yi Lao be matchmaking Song Ling'er and him?
This thought flashed through his mind and was imdiately dismissed. Xu Fan didn't think he was charismatic enough for such a thing, and more importantly, Song Ling'er could concoct elixirs; her potential is indeed vast since she is very young.
At this mont, Xu Fan smiled and said, "In fact, there's nothing inconvenient to say. I'm fairly famous outside, but the base's trainees and instructors don't recognize my ability, so they gave so points."
Xu Fan's words made Song Ling'er open her mouth wide.
Given points? And so freely in thousands? In Song Ling'er's mory, the base's trainees and instructors don't seem to be so hospitable…
Song Ling'er suppressed her internal doubts and asked Xu Fan tentatively once again, "Are you planning to buy elixirs long-term, or just casually purchasing them?"
Upon hearing this question, Xu Fan's eyes slightly condensed, he vaguely understood Song Ling'er and Yi Lao's intention. Xu Fan directly nodded, "I'm an instructor for the Grey Wolf Team; I estimate I'll be frequenting your Elixir Pharmacy for the next month."
A clear hint of joy flashed across Song Ling'er's face. She took a deep breath, suppressing the excitent, and smiled, asking Xu Fan, "Instructor Xu, are you interested in collaborating with ?"
"Oh?" Xu Fan showed so interest, "What kind of collaboration? Tell more."
"Twenty percent off! I can directly give you a twenty percent discount for the elixirs you need! The only thing Instructor Xu needs to contribute is waiting so ti for to refine the elixirs."
Even Xu Fan was greatly surprised upon hearing Song Ling'er's words.
Seeing Xu Fan's astonished expression, bitterness appeared on Song Ling'er's face. She explained to Xu Fan, "Instructor Xu, no need to doubt. I'm very sincere because the Song Family is not a Hidden World Family, and I don't want to be prematurely bound by these things, so I didn't accept the points offered from above, needing to earn points myself."
"The twenty percent points Instructor Xu pays for, ten percent is the cost of refining elixirs, and the other ten percent is my remuneration."
Xu Fan already understood Song Ling'er's aning; she seed to have a great talent for alchemy, yet she doesn't wish to be bound by the major Hidden World Families, so she didn't accept their offered points but wants to earn points through her own ans.
Everyone has their own thoughts, and Xu Fan didn't interrogate why Song Ling'er made such a choice but instead pondered a mont before asking her, "If this matter is discovered by the Elixir Pharmacy, it could be quite risky, right?"
Xu Fan wasn't concerned for himself but worried for Song Ling'er, losing the platform of the Elixir Pharmacy could be disastrous for her.
Firm determination was evident on Song Ling'er's little face, "I naturally have my own ways to keep them from discovering, and even if they do, they wouldn't dare do anything to !"
"Of course, whether Instructor Xu wishes to collaborate with or not, I hope Instructor Xu doesn't tell anyone about this matter."
"Naturally." Xu Fan nodded, but he didn't directly agree.
Song Ling'er's words stirred so thoughts in Xu Fan.
Because in the base, Xu Fan cautiously hid his cultivation of Divine Sense, fearing exposure, which made it more challenging to cultivate.
Moreover, cultivating Divine Sense is not easy because nature's spiritual energy can only nourish the Divine Sense but not enhance it. Now, Xu Fan thinks the only way to advance his Divine Sense might be through elixirs!
This Song Ling'er could be an excellent opportunity for Xu Fan!
