C403 (1/2)

If not for his strength being far stronger than his peers, the explosion earlier would have left him with some minor injuries.

”Eh? ”You actually didn't get injured. Hmm, looks like you're quite strong. This time around, a pretty good candidate has come.” At this time, Elder Ge looked at Yang Xie, and saw that he was unharmed, his eyes lit up, and praising.

Only, after hearing those words, Yang Xie's face darkened.

After that, the Elder Ge waved his big sleeve and kept the pieces of the sword on the ground, he then took out an pill furnace that looked exactly the same as before and placed it onto the Earth Vein Fire. Then, with a flick of his hand, all sorts of Spirit Grass flew into the fire, he skillfully flew like a flowing cloud, causing people's eyes to be filled with joy, and it was clear that he was an extraordinary alchemist master.

Seeing this scene, Yang Xie could not help but admit that although the other party was a little weird, their pill refining level was extremely high.

”I wonder who is stronger between this Elder Ge and that 'All Things Sect' Elder Gou.” Unknowingly, a strange idea suddenly popped up in Yang Xie's mind.

Just then, the Elder Ge stopped throwing the herbal medicine, and one by one, spirit arts were formed and landed on the pill furnace, countless of profound runes lit up on the surface of the pill furnace, following that, the runes lit up and disappeared, the entire pill furnace returned to normal.

”Sigh, this cauldron is truly difficult to refine. It has already wasted twenty or so pill furnace. Looks like I should ask Old Demon Wei to prepare a few more.” Elder Ge sighed.

Yang Xie laughed bitterly at his words. There were more than 20 pill furnace s, no wonder the mission reward was so high, but no one dared to accept it.

”Alright, Kid, it looks like you're not bad. If you can endure for a month and help This Old Man refine this pill, besides the mission rewards, This Old Man will also give you other rewards.” Just then, the Elder Ge turned his head and said to Yang Xie.

”Other rewards?” Yang Xie was ecstatic. Since the other party was a grandmaster alchemist, then it must be related to Pills since he mentioned about the rewards. Thinking about how the other party was a master alchemist, he knew that they must be extraordinary.

”Looks like this mission isn't bad.” Yang Xie thought, the only thing that made people bored with this mission was the exploding pellet, although the exploding pellet was annoying, it was unable to harm him, which was just a little troublesome for him, but he was able to obtain high quality Swordwork Value, and even had other rewards, which could be said to completely compensate for the mission's deficiencies.

”Alright, continue watching. I still need to go back to refine another batch of Pills.” After giving his orders, the Elder Ge turned around and left the secret chamber.

After the Elder Ge left, Yang Xie stared at the furnace in the middle and laughed helplessly, then sat on the ground and guarded the furnace.

When dusk approached, the pill furnace exploded once again, leaving Yang Xie speechless. He did not know what kind of Pills the other party refined, to actually do so once or twice.

In the evening, Yang Xie flew out of the Precious Medicine Peak, went straight back to his own cave, and started to cultivate as usual.

Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Xie had already arrived at the 'My Sword Sect' for nearly seven to eight days.

In this period of time, other than going to the Precious Medicine Peak to watch over the pill furnace, Yang Xie had returned to his cave to cultivate.

And in this short span of seven or eight days, ten batches of Pills had already exploded. Almost once a day, that Elder Ge was enraged like a thunderclap, but there was nothing he could do.

But of course, in this peaceful life, there were also some things that weren't peaceful.

Following his frequent trips back and forth between the Precious Medicine Peak and the cave, he had already attracted the attention of many inner sect disciples. Some disciples were startled to discover that Nie Yong's cave, which had not been taken care of for a long time, had actually become neat and tidy.

”Strange, why is Nie Yong's cave abode acting in such a manner? Could it be that the sect assigned this cave to the other disciples? ”

”Impossible, that Nie Yong is only being exiled, not expelled. As long as that Nie Yong is still alive, according to the sect's rules, this cave should always belong to Nie Yong.” A disciple shook her head.

”Since it is impossible to assign it to other disciples, then why is this place so neat and tidy? Could it be that Nie Yong is back? ”

”Looking at the time, the ten years should be up, that means Nie Yong is really back.”

”A few days ago I heard from someone that there was a disciple from Heavenly Completion Late Stage that came in and out of this place. It looked extremely familiar, and it should be that Nie Yong.” The other person thought for a moment, then suddenly said.
