Seeing his old friend Gu Cuo, Hao Yuntian’s previously gloomy mood improved significantly.
"Old friend, this is Hao Yang, my son. You t him when he was little," Hao Yuntian said, pointing to Hao Yang.
"Good kid, how did he grow up so quickly?" Gu Cuo said warmly, "Oh, Main God Realm? Impressive! It seems your martial arts talent surpasses your father’s. With hard work, reaching the Nine Tripods is highly possible in the future."
"Uncle Gu Cuo..." Hao Yang grinned.
"This is Mr. Yan Jin, a High-level Divine Pill Master," Hao Yuntian introduced Jing Yan to Gu Cuo.
Sure enough, Gu Cuo was montarily stunned upon hearing this. He assud Jing Yan was just a junior of Hao Yuntian’s, not expecting Hao Yang to address him as Mr. Yan Jin and to learn that this young man was a High-level Divine Pill Master.
Involuntarily, Gu Cuo’s expression beca more serious.
"Didn’t see that coming. Mr. Yan Jin!" Gu Cuo cupped his hands toward Jing Yan, speaking with considerable respect.
A High-Level Divine Pill Master is worthy of Gu Cuo’s respect. Given he runs a Pill Tower, associating with High-Level Divine Pill Masters only brings benefits.
"Building Owner Gu Cuo, you flatter ," Jing Yan returned the gesture.
"Old friend, don’t say I didn’t warn you. Mr. Yan Jin’s alchemy skills surpass your imagination. We’ll be in Cloud Mist City for so ti. Mr. Yan Jin should have so free ti. If you don’t seize the opportunity to ask Mr. Yan Jin to refine so elixirs, it’ll be your loss," Hao Yuntian said with a smile.
Gu Cuo’s eyes lit up.
"By the way, old friend, when I entered earlier, I seed to see quite a few High-Level Divine Pill Masters around here," Hao Yuntian continued.
"Yes! Recently, I’ve been elated with good things happening," Gu Cuo replied repeatedly, "Yun Tian, you must have returned to the Yunxia Sect, right? The Lan Wood Spiritual Root in Yunxia Sect has had issues, and they are gathering many High-Level Divine Pill Masters in Cloud Mist City for treatnt. I’ve benefitted too; for the past century, dozens of High-Level Divine Pill Masters have gathered at my place, and the scene is..."
As one of the three major forces in the Vast Smoke Divine Realm, Yunxia Sect’s influence is undisputed.
Following Yunxia Sect’s invitation, various High-Level Divine Pill Masters converged on Cloud Mist City from all directions. Even so High-Level Divine Pill Masters from neighboring divine domains made the special trip.
With Gu Cuo’s business acun, he naturally saw a trendous business opportunity, leading to the successful invitation of these High-Level Divine Pill Masters to his Pill Tower through a series of arrangents.
"So that’s how it is!" Hao Yuntian nodded, no wonder the Great Sect Master was unconcerned about Mr. Yan Jin as a High-Level Divine Pill Master; turns out the sect had long issued an invitation.
The group settled down, and tea was swiftly served.
After so casual conversation.
"Mr. Yan Jin, co, let introduce you to the other Divine Pill Masters," Gu Cuo suggested.
"This..." Jing Yan hesitated a bit; he wasn’t particularly interested in getting to know other High-Level Divine Pill Masters.
However, before he could decline, Gu Cuo had already grabbed his hand and led him out. Jing Yan shook his head and had no choice but to follow along.
In a temporarily established hall by Gu Cuo, there were one or two dozen High-Level Divine Pill Masters discussing alchemy. The hall was lively. So Pill Masters, unable to convince each other during debates, were arguing intensely, faces flushed and spittle flying.
Seeing Building Owner Gu Cuo entering with a young man, they paused to gaze at the two.
Most of the Divine Pill Masters had a respectful attitude toward Building Owner Gu Cuo. After all, they enjoyed free als and hospitality here daily, and Gu Cuo was generous indeed.
"Building Owner Gu Cuo!" Many Pill Masters stood and cupped their hands.
"Haha, esteed Pill Masters, let introduce you. This is Mr. Yan Jin, also a High-Level Divine Pill Master," Gu Cuo laughed loudly, introducing Jing Yan.
Jing Yan cupped his hands toward the Divine Pill Masters.
"Mr. Yan Jin looks quite young. I wonder which Divine Domain you are from?" one Pill Master asked.
Most of the Divine Pill Masters present were from the Vast Smoke Divine Realm, and they generally knew each other. Since they weren’t familiar with Jing Yan, they assud he wasn’t a Pill Master from the Vast Smoke Divine Realm.
"I co from the Jade Stream Divine Domain," Jing Yan responded.
"So, a Pill Master from the Jade Stream Divine Domain," the person nodded.
Following Jing Yan’s response, many Pill Masters displayed indifferent expressions. Pill Masters from the Jade Stream Divine Domain were nothing special, after all, it was only an Interdiate Divine Domain.
"Mr. Yan Jin, please have a seat," so were more enthusiastic, inviting Jing Yan. Regardless, Jing Yan was a High-Level Divine Pill Master, and while they might feel indifferent, they couldn’t disregard this status.
Jing Yan took a seat accordingly.
Subsequently, Jing Yan spent most of his ti in the hall, listening to other High-Level Divine Pill Masters discuss alchemy. Unlike others, Jing Yan rarely chid in, choosing to listen quietly. If he heard sothing amusing, he’d smirk but refrain from correcting.
Ti passed day by day, and two months flew by.
On this day, a truly prominent figure visited the Piaomiao Pill Tower.
"Pill Master Zhenqing has arrived," soone announced loudly outside the hall.
Soon after, Building Owner Gu Cuo entered with an elderly man in a red robe. In fact, Building Owner Gu Cuo was following behind this red-robed elder, appearing sowhat like a subordinate. His face was filled with reverence and a fawning expression.
This Pill Master Zhenqing was soone Gu Cuo personally went outside the city to greet. He waited for a few hours at the gates of Cloud Mist City, finally welcoming Pill Master Zhenqing. Although it was a long wait, Gu Cuo found it worthwhile. How many Pill Towers in the entire Vast Smoke Divine Realm have had the honor of inviting Pill Master Zhenqing?
Whoosh!
Within the entire hall, dozens of High-Level Divine Pill Masters all stood up without exception. Each one had an excited expression, so had even reddened eyes, and there were those trembling with excitent.
Jing Yan furrowed his brow.
Originally, he also intended to stand up. However, upon seeing this Pill Master Zhenqing with a haughty deanor, Jing Yan couldn’t help but feel a twinge of dislike.
Jing Yan shifted in his seat but ultimately did not rise.
"Pill Master Zhenqing!"
"Greetings, Master Zhenqing!"
"Senior Zhenqing!" The greetings echoed from the mouths of the High-Level Divine Pill Masters.
And the person, appearing to enjoy the greetings and complints, gave a soft snort from his nose and strode in arrogantly, hands behind his back, exuding an air of superiority.
However, suddenly, he halted his steps.
