Chapter 417
Ying city.
City Lord’s mansion.
The black trees were flourishing, and the green branches and leaves covered the pavilions.
From time to time, colorful birds would fly among them, gently pecking at the Jade flowers and qicao. It was a carefree and relaxed scene.
Under the forest, there were pairs of tall and burly guards in bright armor. They had cold expressions and stood with Spears in their hands, guarding against the surroundings.
&Quot; step, step, step ... &Quot; a series of footsteps came from the White jade brick passage. The guards ‘ears twitched, and they focused.
Soon, they saw two of their colleagues accompanying a cultivator in his thirties or forties with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.
Shi Wanli followed the soldiers through several courtyards before finally meeting the city Lord of bamboo city, Yuchi Kechuan, in a study room with a garden behind it.
Yuchi kechuang looked to be in his forties. His skin was slightly dark, and he had a short beard. He had a wide face and a square mouth, and he had an upright temperament. He was dressed in a fifty-percent new round-neck robe. He held a red brush in his hand and was quickly reviewing official documents.
Seeing that the guard had brought Shi Wanli in, Yuchi Kexin gently put down his brush and waved his hands to leave. He then said,”Tower master Shi, what’s the matter?”
Although Chan Lou was famous, it belonged directly to the Emperor and was not under the command of officials like Yuchi Kexin, who came from the celestial science.
In other words, Yuchi Kechuan didn’t need to pay attention to Shi Wanli.
Especially since the other party had come over, there was an 80% chance that he had something to ask of her.
However, although Shi Wanli’s cultivation was not high, he was a disciple of the Jade Qilin Academy. He was also patient. After joining the cicada tower, he invited himself to go to the ten thousand fathoms sea branch to train.
Such a person would have a bright future.
Therefore, although Yuchi Kexin was the Lord of a city and his status was higher than Shi Wanli, he didn’t put on any airs.
“Junior Shi Wanli greets city Lord Yuchi.” Shi Wanli bowed first and then directly stated his purpose for coming. &Quot; Yuchi city Lord, during my time in the ten thousand fathoms sea, I found a talented rogue Alchemist. For this reason, I specially escorted him to Ying city. &Quot;
&Quot; just now, this alchemy master named Wang Gao has passed the selection and obtained the status of a fifth-realm Alchemist. &Quot;
“Now, I want to borrow the teleportation formation in the city to head to Chao Phraya city to participate in the county examination!”
A fifth-grade Alchemist?
Yuchi Kexin was stunned.
The requirement to become a fifth grade Alchemist was to be able to steadily refine Supreme grade medicinal pills. Such an Alchemist, no matter where he was placed, could be considered a true master!
At present, there was only one fifth-grade Alchemist in Ying city, Xue Ruhan. Although she hadn’t joined the dynasty, her position in the city was very important. Even the city Lord, Yuchi Kexin, was very respectful and didn’t dare to offend her.
After all, if Xue Ruhan was unhappy and moved to another place, the locals would definitely welcome her with respect.
At that time, bamboo city would no longer have a Tier 5 Alchemist to hold down the Fort. Whether it was reputation or status in the Imperial court, both would drop drastically.
Now that another fifth-grade pill refiner had descended from the sky, and a rogue cultivator from outside the country at that, there was no doubt that this was an opportunity for Ying city.
Although he knew that bamboo city might not have the means to make him stay, how would he know if he didn’t try?
Taking a step back, even if he couldn’t keep her, at least it would be good to cultivate some personal feelings!
Thinking of this, Yuchi Kexi came back to his senses and nodded slightly, saying, ” “During the Grand alchemy ceremony, alchemists should be the priority. Since that’s the case, there’s no problem for you to use the transportation formation.”
“I’ll pass down the order.”
&Quot; however, the master’s status is very high. In order to prevent any tricks, the teleportation formation has to be inspected before it can be used. &Quot;
“How about this, I’ll have to trouble Grandmaster to come to the city Lord’s mansion in the evening for a few drinks and a chat. After my subordinates have finished checking the teleportation formation, I will personally send Grandmaster to Chao Phraya city. How about it?”
Shi Wanli was clear that the so-called inspection of the teleportation array was just to buy time for Master Wang Gao to stay and build up their relationship.
However, this was within his expectations.
No one would let go of an opportunity to make friends with a fifth grade alchemy Grandmaster.
After leaving the card, Shi Wanli cupped his hands and left.
Yuchi kechuang couldn’t be bothered to continue dealing with official Affairs. He immediately got up and left the study, walking towards the backyard.
In the backyard of the city Lord’s mansion, in a garden full of flowers, the soft wind blew past the bells hanging around the octagonal pavilion, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
In the pavilion, a beautiful woman with cloud-like hair, bright eyebrows, and white teeth was holding a needle and thread, slowly embroidering a picture of a Twin Lotus flower.
As she looked around, her eyes were bright and her aura was strong. She was in the core formation realm. Her figure was especially graceful and graceful, like the moon.
In front of her, there was a demonic Wolf the size of an ox calf. This demonic Wolf’s aura was slightly weaker than the beautiful woman’s, and it was at the peak of the foundation building realm. Its entire body was red, and when the wind blew, its fur fluttered like dancing flames. As he breathed, sparks flew from his nose.
Some of the sparks even flew to the embroidery Cloth in the beautiful woman’s hand.
The beautiful woman quickly wiped it out and couldn’t help but sneer,”Have you been slacking off in your cultivation recently? If you can’t even control my race’s innate divine ability, don’t ruin my half-finished embroidery!”
The demon Wolf mumbled a few words and turned over on the ground. It laid down on its side and wagged its tail in boredom. &Quot; we’re no longer in the territory of the four great demonic sects. Dynasty is indeed a righteous sect. All living beings are equal. We don’t have to live in hiding anymore, and we don’t have to constantly worry about those demons coming to our door and using us as cultivation resources ... &Quot;
“Why do you have to train your cultivation and spell techniques all the time?”
“Sister, haven’t you been studying embroidery, cooking ... How long has it been since you’ve cultivated our clan’s innate magical ability?”
The beautiful woman revealed a slightly melancholic expression upon hearing this, but she soon shook her head with a smile.
The younger brother thought of the past. Those days were really difficult ...
However, now that they had come to the glazed tile Empire and obtained the status of permanent residence, and she had a husband she loved, she no longer had to live a precarious life like before.
“Even so, it’s not a good thing for you to not be able to transform.” The beautiful woman pondered for a moment and said, ” in the end, you still need a human body to sign up for the celestial science of dynasty. After this alchemy discussion ceremony is over, I will apply for a form transformation pill for you! &Quot;
The demonic Wolf was instantly overjoyed when it heard this. However, after twitching its ears, it sat up and said worriedly, ” “My aptitude is too poor. I’ve already used the form transformation pill several times, but I’ve never been able to successfully transform. I wonder if I’ll fail again this time? If that’s the case, would brother-in-law also look down on you, sister?”
“Don’t think too much. Ke di is not that kind of person.” The beautiful woman scoffed before sighing softly. &Quot; it would be great if there were high-grade form transformation pills. The reason why you failed to transform previously was because those form transformation pills were not of good quality. It’s a pity that it’s very difficult to make a transformation pill, and we’re just ordinary demonic beasts without any top-notch bloodline. We’ve never made any contributions to the dynasty, so even with your brother-in-law’s face, we can only apply for a mid-grade transformation pill ...”
Thinking of this, the beautiful woman frowned slightly.
Grandmaster Xue Ruhan in the city could refine a high-grade form transformation pill, but she had been in seclusion for the past two years and didn’t see anyone.
He had only come out of seclusion once a few months ago.
However, this Alchemist was very haughty, and even Yuchi Kechuan would find it difficult to invite him.
Furthermore, the pill discussion ceremony had just begun, and she was working hard to improve her alchemy skills. Where would she find the time to specially refine a form transformation pill for her younger brother?
The demon Wolf also knew this principle. With their status, it was impossible for them to obtain a high-grade body transformation pill ...
It couldn’t hide its disappointment and lay down again.
The siblings looked at each other in silence for a moment before a tall figure suddenly appeared in the pavilion.
“My husband!” The beautiful woman’s eyes immediately lit up, and she immediately put down the embroidery in her hand to welcome him. Her eyes were bright and full of tenderness.
Yuchi kechuang stared at his wife’s face. His original dignified manner instantly turned gentle as he smiled and said, ” “Madam, you’ll personally cook later and prepare some of your best wine and dishes. Tonight, I’m going to entertain a fifth ranked Alchemist!”
“Master Xue Ruhan, you’re finally willing to come and have a chat?” the beautiful woman was stunned for a moment before she said happily.
“No, it wasn’t Xue Ruhan.” Yuchi Kexi shook his head and said, ” it’s a foreign fifth-grade Alchemist. He wants to borrow the city’s teleportation array. I used the excuse of the teleportation array’s maintenance to invite him to a banquet tonight. We’ll leave tomorrow to see if he can help this little brother refine a high-grade transformation pill. &Quot;
Upon hearing this, the demon Wolf lying on the ground suddenly became alert and sat up, its ears perking up!
The beautiful woman was surprised and happy, hurriedly nodding,”Good! Good! I’ll go immediately!”
Yuchi ke patted the back of her hand with a smile and continued, ” &Quot; I’m going to invite a few more guests. Otherwise, this banquet won’t be Grand enough. It’ll seem like we’re too casual and not respectful enough to this Alchemist. &Quot;
“Husband, go!” The beautiful woman immediately said, ” with me watching over the residence, I will definitely not neglect this master. &Quot;
