Chapter 466 - Elder (2/2)

Then, she took another breath, and all the Yin Qi that came out rushing went back inside her.

Alex could still feel her aura, but it wasn't to the same level as when she wasn't in control of her constitution.

”Master, you started getting better at it?” Alex asked in awe.

”Yes,” Ma Rong said. ”Or at least I'm getting there. Which is working.”

”So, you can make pills again now?” Alex asked.

Ma Rong put on a sad smile and shook her head. ”Not yet, but I'll get there,” she said. ”It's just a matter of time.”

Alex put on a sad smile too. 'I'm not sure we have any,' he thought. There was still one thing on his mind that was nagging him at the back of his head, but he wasn't concerned about it since he hadn't taken the time to think it through.

”So, why did you want to find me?” she asked.

”Oh, right. I was coming to let you know that I'm going to the Tiger sect now,” Alex said.

”Oh, it's time, huh?” Ma Rong said. ”Although, before you go, I had something to discuss with you.”

”Sure, master. What is it about?” he asked.

”Since you are already so good at making pills, and are already in the Mind Tempering 2nd realm, it's nothing but a few weeks before you reach the True realms.”

”At that time, whether you want to or not, you will have to become an elder, or graduate from the sect and leave,” Ma Rong said.

”What? Leave? I don't want to, master,” Alex said.

”Yeah, I guessed that,” Ma Rong said. ”So, I had a suggestion for you.”

”What is it?” Alex asked and waited for her to continue speaking.

”Do you want to just cut the line and become an elder now?” Ma Rong asked.

Alex was surprised. ”Right now?” he asked.

”Yeah, what do you think?” Ma Rong asked.

Alex fell into contemplation. He would just have to hand over a single Heaven grade common pill and he would become an elder just like that.

However, he wasn't sure if he wanted to do that right now. 'But what else do I have left to do here?' he wondered.

'Besides becoming an elder, I really do have nothing. But then the responsibilities…' he started worrying.

”How about this, master?” Alex said. ”I will think about it after I return from the Tiger sect.”

Ma Rong smiled. ”I didn't want to make you an elder right now either. Go and come back.. We will have plenty of time to talk about this.”
