Chapter 158 - 158: The Final Medicinal Ingredient

Translator: 549690339

Qin Changqing understood that this matter couldn’t be settled by Zhuge Wanqing alone. Dealing with major forces was always troublesome. Be it Danqing Pavilion or Huntian Sect, they all have the same nature. “It seems the Extreme Elixir Token is mine now.” Li Ruoyu smiled faintly.

“That’s not fair.

“Do you have any solution then?” Li Ruoyu’s mouth curled up, appearing very smug, “Although you are under MO Jiuzhou’s protection, even if your elder sister is willing, I’m afraid she won’t be able to pass the pavilion master’s hurdle.”

If he couldn’t marry Zhuge Wanqing, then no one would compete with her for the Extreme Elixir Token.

So, who else could inherit the Extreme Elixir Token but him?

“What if there’s a chance in the future?”

“That would be something for later.”

“Hmm… I’ve decided to change my approach.” Qin Changqing thought for a while and said, “Still a span of ten years, but you and Zhuge Wanqing count separately. You birth how many in ten years, and after I marry Zhuge Wanging, see how many she births in ten years. This way, we can compete fairly.”

Li Ruoyu.

Qin, are you even human!?

Lingxiao Sect, Xuanyi Peak.

MO Jiuzhou, as always, sat on the long bench.

There was a tea table beside him.

And on the other side of the tea table, there was also a person, who happened to be Ye Mo.

At this moment, the two old men picked up their tea cups at the same time, drank the tea together, and then put them down again at the same time. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Pah!” Ye MO smacked his lips, “I haven’t had your tea for so many years, and it still tastes awful.

“You know nothing. This is a top-grade tea. Others would love to have it but can’t.”

“Who would dare drink your Dao tea?” “My disciple said it tasted great.”

“Disciple? Qin Changqing?”

“You know him too?” MO Jiuzhou stroked his beard proudly, “My disciple is a dragon among men, and he’s far stronger than when I was his age.”

“Him?” Ye MO sneered, “I just passed by Yinxu Prefecture, and I happened to catch a glimpse of him. Sigh- That guy begged me to take him as my disciple, but I refused. Dao, you have a poor eye for people.”

“How is that possible!” MO Jiuzhou scoffed, “My disciple has the bearing of a great emperor. Why would he be interested in you?”

“What’s so impossible? Back when I suppressed the Extreme Elixir Grand Assembly, who in the North Region didn’t know me? Unlike you, who ruined your own Dao for a woman, humph!”

“I was willing to, what do you, a single old man, know about it?”

Ye MO shook his head, “Your disciple follows in your footsteps, and he’s even more extreme. With so many wives at home, can he handle them all? Don’t end up falling like you did one day.”

“Hehe- Rest assured, that kid is much smarter than me.”

Thinking of how Qin Changqing could even settle Red Mill’s assassins, if it weren’t for his old face, MO Jiuzhou would have knelt down and begged to learn from him.

As for Qin Changqing, at least in terms of women, he was quite relieved.

“Is that so?” Ye MO sipped his tea and said casually, “But he indeed wants to learn alchemy. I didn’t want to teach him before, but I might just accept him as a disciple for your sake.”

MO Jiuzhou asked doubtfully, “I thought you never accepted disciples?”

“Sigh- Time flies, and of those old friends, only we are left. Seeing you like this, I really can’t bear it.”

“Get lost! I’m d01ng Just tine!”

MO Jiuzhou scolded angrily.

What happened to him?Life seemed so free and easy every day.

However, Ye Mo’s next words made MO Jiuzhou fall silent.

“Tianti Road, Immortal Ascension Conference – these only concern within Tianchuan State, and now you place all your hopes on that kid. But as you walk this path, how long can you protect him? You can intimidate others, but you can’t deceive me. When you self-detonated your Nascent Soul back then, although you managed to save your life, most of your cultivation was lost.” “Then what’s the point in bringing this up?”

“I’m telling you. Those old fellows from the Tianyuan Battle back then, many of them still bear grudges against you. Once Qin Changqing leaves Tianchuan State, how long do you think he can survive?”

MO Jiuzhou remained silent.

Ye MO continued, “I didn’t want to take on an apprentice, but I have no choice. I’m worried about you. That kid would be much safer with me than with you trying to scare others away. Shouldn’t you consider his wellbeing too?”

“By the way, before I went up the mountain, I saw him in Yinxu Prefecture blatantly showing his lustful intentions towards the Danqing Pavilion Master’s disciple. If not for my timely intervention, a catastrophe might have occurred. Pavilion Master, that old woman… ahem- Our Pavilion Master, her temper is renowned, isn’t it?”

“Hmm…” MO Jiuzhou’s scalp tingled.

He knew the Danqing Pavilion Master from back in the day. Her Alchemy talent was on par with Ye MO’s, but her cultivation talent was extremely high, making her terrifyingly strong.

“That smelly brat! He’s utterly shameless!” MO Jiuzhou cursed.

You dare to lust after Danqing Pavilion Master’s disciple, you brazen bastard! “Exactly, that’s why I believe he’ll face numerous calamities in the future.” “Thank goodness you were there.”

“Being our close relationship, how could I ever just sit back and do nothing?”

MO Jiuzhou nodded and then looked at Ye MO with suspicion, “I feel like there’s something strange about you today. Are you really this kind-hearted?”

Ye MO was furious, “MO Jiuzhou! Don’t mistake my kindness for weakness! I’ve been dominating the North Region for years, and countless geniuses have sought me as their master! Now that I’m helping you out of the goodness of my heart, you’re not grateful? Humph! Forget it then!”

With that, he stood up to leave.

“Alright, alright, old friend,” MO Jiuzhou quickly said, “It’s my fault. I’ll leave the matter of teaching the kid Alchemy to you. Come, let’s have another cup of tea, let me apologize to you.”

“Humph! No need for tea.” Ye MO said lightly, “I only agreed to teach him. Whether the kid can learn from me and gain any skills is up to his fate. I have other things to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now.”

Whoosh-

In the blink of an eye, Ye MO vanished from Xuanyi Peak.

Once he left, MO Jiuzhou suddenly laughed and mischievously stroked his beard.

“Hell- old man, don’t think that I don’t know your game. Good-hearted? Like hell, I would believe that! Regrettably, if you want to snatched away my precious disciple, you’re dreaming.”

MO Jiuzhou was certain that Qin Changqing must have done something significant in Yinxu Prefecture.

It’s possible that he indeed has an unparalleled Alchemy talent, which caught Ye Mo’s attention.

Others might find it impossible.

However, with Qin Changqing’s destined emperor’s star blessing, why wouldn’t he have some Alchemy talent?

“It’s also good to have that old man to help. I can take the time to recuperate with peace of mind. Moreover, I recall that he obtained a Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus back then… Hehe-

The matter with Zhuge Wanqing remained unresolved, which left Qin Changqing distressed for several days.

But there was nothing to be done. The Danqing Pavilion Master’s cultivation was unparalleled, even Elder Dao would have to obey her.

Nangong Xue also left. After Qin Changqing assured her that he could refine the Disaster-Alleviating Golden Elixir, she set off to search for the final medicinal ingredient.

With Tianti Road approaching, she was determined to succeed in this trial.

Qin Changqing shook his head secretly, thinking, my dear junior sister, if you dual cultivated with your senior brother a few times, I’m sure it would be much better than just burying yourself in training.

Forget it, forget it. If I were to say this now, I’d likely be beaten. I’ll leave it for another day.

Fortunately, Li Ruoyu stayed behind. The woman didn’t seem to have any intention of going back. She merely asked Zhuge Wanqing to relay a message before settling down in Qin Mansion..
