Afterward, Ding Fan intended to leave Elder Wang's place imdiately, and a disciple from before brought nearly two hundred plants of Spiritual Materials to Ding Fan. Clearly, the attitude of this disciple had completely changed by now, after sowhat overhearing the conversation between Ding Fan and Elder Wang. The disciple was very surprised, unable to imagine that the things Ding Fan spoke of were so profound.
After all, the disciple was also an excellent Alchemist. Evidently, the revelations from Ding Fan stunned the disciple, almost incredulous that such a young cultivator not only was an Alchemist but also deeply understood ancient formulas!
At this point, the disciple understood so of his master's intentions, evidently viewing this prodigious Alchemist as soone worth befriending.
Then, Ding Fan promptly stored the Spiritual Materials into his Space Ring and, with a farewell to Elder Wang, proceeded straight towards Wuji Square. Having no knowledge yet that He Qianyao had returned to the inn, Ding Fan planned to check Wuji Square first; if He Qianyao was not there, indeed she must have returned to the inn, which Ding Fan was fairly certain about.
Evidently, Ding Fan and He Qianyao shared a certain tacit understanding in this regard.
In no ti, Ding Fan arrived at Wuji Square but did not see He Qianyao. Imdiately, Ding Fan headed decisively to the inn. Along the way, many cultivators recognized Ding Fan at first glance, and seeing Ding Fan, they displayed an evidently very respectful deanor. After all, everyone knew about Ding Fan.
One must know, Ding Fan is renowned for being able to refine Supre Quality dicine Pills, and even did so in less than half an hour. Such Alchemy Level is considered unmatched, even compared to Grade Nine Alchemy Masters. Though this is the case, people still find it hard to believe Ding Fan could compare to those famous Alchemy Masters, given Ding Fan's young age, certainly not akin to those Alchemy Masters.
However, everyone is quite certain that Ding Fan's Alchemy Skill, albeit not surpassing the Alchemy Masters', definitely does not fall short. Ding Fan not only refined Supre Quality dicine Pills in under half an hour but also disclosed thods for preserving Alchemy Cauldron, making huge contributions to the Alchemist Guild and Cultivation World.
An Alchemist with such capability couldn't possibly be underestimated!
Therefore, seeing Ding Fan walking along the street, everyone's gaze naturally turned respectful and friendly, as every cultivator wishes to befriend such an extraordinary Alchemist, equating to gaining a wealth of cultivation resources. Clearly, for cultivators, even if possessing copious Spiritual Materials, without an Alchemist, they're practically useless.
After all, for cultivators, dicine Pills hold much greater significance. Sotis, even Supre Quality dicine Pills are fought over fiercely by experts of the Distracted Void stage. At tis, a single dicine Pill can instantly boost a cultivator's cultivation significantly, even if it's only the First level—it's a monuntal fortune for any cultivator!
"Look over there, that's Ding Lin! The young Alchemist who refined Supre Quality dicine Pills at the Great Alchemy Competition! He even explained the preservation thod for Alchemy Cauldrons! Truly impressive!"
"Indeed! He looks really young, and so handso!"
"My little heart is racing uncontrollably..."
"Is it really that exaggerated? Don't act so infatuated, be a demure lady like myself..."
"Oh please! Facing such a diamond-level handso guy, if you continue acting demure, soone else will snatch him up!"
"Really? Well, I don't want that… I definitely want to marry him..."
"..."
In an instant, several young won on the street saw Ding Fan, their hearts stirring with ripples, as if their girlish hearts had blossod into springti, imdiately bursting with joy...
At the side, the male cultivators watched as the girls in the street admired Ding Fan with both envy and a lack of resentnt. Knowing well that he is indeed very handso. Importantly, Ding Lin isn't just any Alchemist; he can refine Supre Quality dicine Pills, and during the Great Alchemy Competition, Elder Wang showed great warmth towards him. Clearly, Ding Lin is not just an ordinary person!
And having made such huge contributions to the Alchemist Guild, even if so male cultivators envied Ding Fan, they were filled with gratitude. You must know, Ding Fan disclosed the Alchemy Cauldron preservation thod, benefiting all cultivators—clearly impossible for anyone to resent him.
Ding Fan saw the street scenes filled with people, and couldn't help but feel a bit helpless. He hadn't expected that rely participating in the first round of the Great Alchemy Competition would cause such a sensation, with everyone in the street recognizing him! Ding Fan had not anticipated this. He already had an idea in mind; if he were to pass by a shop, he would buy a mask to wear, clearly understanding the principle of 'the higher the tree, the more the wind will blow.'
At this mont, Ding Fan was also quite grateful that he had claid his na was Ding Lin; otherwise, by now, the entire street would know him as Ding Fan. It would really be a problem then, as apparently, if the cultivator disciples of the Wild Wolf Gang got wind of it, they wouldn't spare him.
Subsequently, Ding Fan, passing by a shop, bought a mask and put it on. With the mask on, no one paid attention to him like before. Ding Fan let out a sigh of relief and was quite satisfied with this state. After all, his fa was already established, and this Great Alchemy Competition was a grand event on the entire Donglai Continent. Clearly, many cultivators were paying attention to the events here.
Now that he was famous, if Zhou Ruoran and Gusu Qingwen were on the Donglai Continent, they would certainly hear about him. Ding Fan was very sure that as soon as Zhou Ruoran and Gusu Qingwen heard about his participation in the Great Alchemy Competition, they would co searching for him. At that ti, he would find Zhou Ruoran and the others. Ding Fan had been longing for this day for an unknown length of ti.
Sotis, even in his dreams, Ding Fan often dreamt of finding Zhou Ruoran and others. Now, fortunately, his fa was out there, even though people outside only knew his alias, Ding Lin. But Ding Fan believed that Zhou Ruoran, with her cleverness, would definitely make the connection to him. By then, he would be able to find Zhou Ruoran and the others.
Thinking about these things, Ding Fan felt both happy that he could soon et Zhou Ruoran and Gusu Qingwen, and worried about their current situation. For Ding Fan, he certainly didn't fully understand their situation, even though Ye Ningbing had ntioned a little to him. But knowing they were scattered by the Beast Tide made him even more worried, as the Beast Tide was no simple existence.
Not to ntion ordinary won like Zhou Ruoran and Gusu Qingwen, even he would need to be very cautious when encountering the Beast Tide; usually, he wouldn't be a match for it. Therefore, how could Ding Fan not worry? But Ding Fan believed that good people are blessed by the divine, and that Zhou Ruoran and Gusu Qingwen, both kind-hearted and beautiful won, would surely be fine.
For now, Ding Fan could only comfort himself in this way, or else his heart would be continually unsettled and unable to let go. After all, Ding Fan knew there were still many things he had to do; clearly, this wasn't the ti for him to fall.
After a while, Ding Fan returned directly to the inn. At this ti, the slightly plump innkeeper saw a male cultivator wearing a mask enter, and couldn't help but approach cautiously to inquire. When Ding Fan took off the mask, the slightly plump innkeeper imdiately recognized him. The innkeeper's face broke into a broad smile; obviously, he had watched the Great Alchemy Competition and had clearly seen Ding Fan's performance, now feeling extrely excited.
The slightly plump innkeeper was also quite proud, evidently not having misjudged soone who could take out such a jade plate was indeed no ordinary person. Then the slightly plump innkeeper respectfully said to Ding Fan:
"Congratulations to you, Mr. Ding Lin! Having soone like you in our inn truly makes it shine! Whatever you need, we'll do our utmost to fulfill, after all, our inn..."
"I'm very tired; do not make this public! I'm going up!"
Seeing the slightly plump innkeeper's excited expression, Ding Fan couldn't help but interrupt helplessly. Clearly, he needed so good rest after entering the inn, as indeed a lot had happened today, and he needed to prepare well for the next round of the Great Alchemy Competition. Most importantly, he needed to see if He Qianyao had returned.
As Ding Fan walked into the courtyard where his room was, he saw He Qianyao already standing outside to greet him. When He Qianyao saw Ding Fan return, she couldn't help but step forward and tightly embrace him. Clearly, from the heart, she was sincerely happy for Ding Fan, knowing so of his thoughts quite well. Obviously, Ding Fan's purpose had been mostly achieved.
Indeed, it was worth celebrating with a hug.
"Congratulations, Alchemist Ding Lin!"
At that mont, embraced tightly by He Qianyao, Ding Fan was acutely aware of her incredibly soft body and the two soft orbs pressing against his chest. A warm sensation spread throughout Ding Fan's body, along with a faint fragrance hitting his nose, montarily rendering Ding Fan unable to extricate himself.
Ding Fan understood what He Qianyao ant; clearly, she was genuinely happy for him. But when Ding Fan tried to free himself, he worried that doing so might be impolite and hurt He Qianyao's feelings. More importantly, being hugged so tightly by her montarily rendered him unable to extricate himself; it was quite embarrassing. Ding Fan thought helplessly.
And that was normal, as Ding Fan looked at He Qianyao's fair and beautiful face, her bright, watery large eyes, willow-like eyebrows, and the exquisite small face where every part was remarkably beautiful, like a woman from a painting, captivating anyone's gaze. Such a stunning beauty would render any male cultivator unable to escape, let alone soone like Ding Fan who had no indecent thoughts, making him quite rare indeed.
He Qianyao at this mont was simply happy for herself, clearly, Ding Fan had beco famous, practically like a divine being. There wasn't a cultivator who didn't admire Ding Fan greatly. He Qianyao was thankful that her judgnt was so accurate and felt profoundly grateful that her late father had entrusted her to such a man, proving it to be the right decision!
