Yan Qingyang followed Nguyen into the bamboo forest.

Ruan Jiang took about a dozen steps before stopping. Yan Qingyang quickly hid behind a lush bamboo.

With a whoosh of the wind, a man in a green robe landed right in front of Ran'eke.

Ji Chongshan! Yan Qingyang recognized him at a glance.

”Junior sister Ruan, is something the matter?” Ji Chonglou looked impatient as he said.

He lowered his head, took out a jade bottle, and said softly, ”Senior brother Ji, this is the supreme grade Spiritfount Pill that I recently refined. I heard that you've encountered a bottleneck in your cultivation, and I was wondering if I could help you with these …”

”No need!” Before Ruan Jun could finish her sentence, Ji Zhongshan had already refused.

Ruan Bei raised his head in shock and felt a bit defeated. He murmured, ”Senior Brother Ji?”

Adept Chi Dan was skilled in alchemy, and so were most of her disciples. But Ji Zhong Shan was not only busy with cultivation, he would also often take over for Adept Chi Dan to handle the internal affairs of the mountain.

As the Fire Wood Spirit Root was more suitable for alchemy, she usually had more alchemy pills.

Ji Chongshan frowned and said, ”Didn't you already give me two bottles of supreme grade Accumulation Elixir last month? ”I'm not finished yet. You can keep these for yourself.”

Ruan Bei's face lit up when she heard this. She thought for a moment, then gripped the jade bottle in her hand and said, ”Okay, I'll give it to you when you finish using it next month. By then, I'll be able to save another bottle.”

Ji Chongshan declined to comment and asked somewhat impatiently: ”Junior sister Ruan, is there anything else?”

”I …” Ruan Gang held onto the belt and asked cautiously, ”Senior Brother, recently …” Are you all right? ”Are you busy?”

Ji Chongshan frowned and said: ”It's alright, Junior Sister. Is there anything else you need? ”If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first!”

Ruan Shi's face showed disappointment, but he quickly covered it up. He forced a smile and said, ”I …”

”Eldest Senior Brother!” At this moment, a flirtatious voice sounded out from the bamboo forest and a red-clothed girl jumped off her flying sword.

The young girl had a beautiful face. She was Luo Xing.

Luo Xing landed between Ji Zhong Shan and Ruan Bei, stepped forward and grabbed Ji Zhong Shan's arm, then said: ”Big Senior, I've been waiting for you for a long time, why are you so slow!” Then she turned to Ruan Bei and smiled sweetly: ”Hey, big senior sister Ruan, what are you looking for big senior brother for?”

Ruan Bei couldn't help but stare at the hand that Luo Xing was holding Ji Zhongshan with. After hearing Luo Xing's question, he lowered his gaze with difficulty and said in a lonely voice, ”I'm fine.”

Luo Xing fixed his eyes on the jade bottle in Nguyen's hand, looked at it for a while, then smiled and said, ”Sister Nguyen, what's that in your hand?”

Ruan Bei subconsciously looked at his hand, raised his head, looked at Luo Xing, and said in a lonely voice, ”Qi Ling Dan.”

”Ah, I see!” Luo Xing pulled her hand away from Luo Yuan's. She clapped her hands and her smile became brighter. She rolled her eyes playfully and said with a smile, ”This is the supreme pellet that Senior Sister Ruan gave Eldest Brother, right? ”Eldest senior brother sure is fortunate to have Senior Sister Ruan with him. Such a precious Spiritfount Pill can be used at will.”

Ji Chongshan pulled Luo Xing over and said, ”Okay, aren't you looking for me? Let's go! ”

”But, Senior Apprentice Brother, you haven't taken Senior Apprentice Sister's Spiritfount Pill yet?” Luo Xing pouted.

Ji Zhongshan smiled helplessly, his face full of affection. ”Mine isn't finished yet. Keep those for your senior sister.”
