Chapter 83: Do you still remember the couple? (Please subscribe)
In the past few days, Li Guanxuan has been continuously cultivating with Qin Jiyue, gradually improving his alchemy skills.
With just another half month of cultivation, he will become a second-grade middle-tier alchemist, making it easier for him to refine the Foundation Building pill with a success rate of thirty and a half percent.
Of course, Li Guanxuan also tried to increase the level of the demon core, just like ripening a spiritual medicine. However, he found that it required too much immortal energy to increase the level of the demon core, so he quickly stopped, otherwise he would have to spend time exercising.
Just as Li Guanxuan distributed all the gold in his bag to Qin Jiyue, he noticed a transmission talisman floating outside.
"Come to Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, Ge Wen has arrived."
Liu Xiaoxian's voice entered his ears.
Sure enough, he came... Li Guanxuan wasn't very surprised in his heart.
If Ge Wen didn't come, then it would be troublesome.
If someone is willing to visit, at least they can talk and clarify things.
If he doesn't come, who knows what bad intentions the Lord of Shanggu City might have.
Li Guanxuan left his residence and went to Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.
Led by Fugui, Li Guanxuan arrived in a reception room. The interior was classically elegant, with a faint fragrance of spiritual incense permeating the air, making it easy for people to calm down.
Liu Xiaoxian and Ge Wen were sitting inside.
"Master Li." Ge Wen, an old Confucian scholar dressed in Confucian robes and a silk headdress, stood up and bowed, saying, "I have long heard of your name."
This old guy is fishing again, trying to get something out of me, let's see if I show any unusual behavior...
Li Guanxuan was no longer a naive young man. Seeing Ge Wen's posture, he immediately understood the other party's underlying meaning and smiled in return, returning the courtesy, "I have met Senior Ge, but I am an unknown junior, how can I have a great name."
"Master Li should also have the identity of an alchemist, right?" Ge Wen asked with a smile.
Li Guanxuan did not deny it and nodded, "Yes."
This kind of thing can be easily found out, it can't be hidden, so there's no need to conceal it.
Upon hearing this, Ge Wen stroked his white beard. His old and turbid eyes flickered with a clear light as he looked Li Guanxuan up and down, as if trying to see through his heart and soul.
"Knock, knock."
Liu Xiaoxian knocked on the table and said indifferently, "Are you treating me as a dead person?"
Li Guanxuan breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless, Ge Wen was a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator, while he was still a short distance away from the peak of Qi Refining.
Facing the scrutiny of a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator, he also felt a pressure from his soul.
If it weren't for his master's timely intervention, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for much longer.
"Sorry, Master Ge, for my audacity. I apologize if I have offended you," Ge Wen stood up and apologized to Li Guanxuan, then looked at Liu Xiaoxian and sighed, "Shopkeeper Liu, to be honest, the city lord is looking for that mysterious alchemist for a reason, not to do anything to that alchemist."
The same goes for Master Diao and the other alchemists in Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.
They have a good relationship with Zheng Huangjin, and Liu Xiaoxian has also shown them some care and help, thanks to Zheng Huangjin's face.
Therefore, no matter how Ge Wen investigated these days, he couldn't find out who the alchemist who refined the Foundation Building pill with a success rate of thirty percent was.
Helpless, Ge Wen had to be honest with Liu Xiaoxian.
"If you have something to ask, why make it seem like an ambush?" Liu Xiaoxian narrowed his eyes, clearly not believing Ge Wen's words.
Before, Ge Wen personally came and shamelessly said that he wanted to meet the mysterious alchemist who refined the Foundation Building pill, and hoped that Liu Xiaoxian could introduce him.
He appeared calm and confident, as if whatever he said, Liu Xiaoxian would definitely follow.
But now Ge Wen is asking for help, who would believe it?
"I'm truly sorry, but I have no other choice."
Ge Wen sighed deeply, bowed deeply, and said, "Can you shield the outside world, Liu Xiaoxian? Everything I'm about to say, I hope you can keep it confidential and not reveal it to anyone."
Liu Xiaoxian waved his hand, and a wave of spiritual power enveloped the reception room, isolating it from the outside world. He smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Ge Wen continued to maintain his bowing posture and remained silent.
"Liu Xiaoxian, I still have something..."
Before Li Guanxuan finished speaking, Liu Xiaoxian waved his hand and said, "Since Ge Master suspects that you are the mysterious alchemist, you might as well pretend to be that alchemist and listen. It won't hurt to hear it..."
But, it's best not to speak recklessly, or else if something happens, I can't guarantee your safety."
Li Guanxuan smiled bitterly, arched his hand and stood silently on the side.
Then, Liu Xiaoxian crossed his legs and smiled, "Ge Master, you can speak freely. Li Fu Master can be trusted."
"Okay."
Ge Wen nodded slightly and didn't drag it out any longer. He said in a deep voice, "The Lord of the City has about ten years left to live."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoxian narrowed his eyes and his smile gradually faded, showing a hint of doubt.
"If I remember correctly, the Lord of the City should have about fifty years of life left, right?"
Li Guanxuan's heart trembled. Was the Lord of Shanggu City in trouble?
Ge Wen smiled bitterly, "The Lord of the City encountered a life-threatening situation in the Chi Lian Mountains and had to use the method of burning life force to escape. Coupled with a hidden illness and a slim hope of forming a Gold Core, he wanted to meet the mysterious alchemist from Myriad Manifestations Pavilion."
Liu Xiaoxian frowned, "Didn't the Lord of the City take the longevity pill?"
Why see an alchemist then?
What help can an alchemist who can refine a Foundation Building pill with a thirty percent success rate provide to a peak Foundation Building cultivator?
"Yes."
Ge Wen nodded and said seriously, "But the Lord of the City has not taken the Gold Yuan Pill."
Liu Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment, then understood the situation and said in surprise, "Are you saying... the Lord of the City intends to take a gamble and condense a Gold Core?"
"Not a gamble, but a well-prepared plan."
Ge Wen explained, "Many precious materials and healing pills are easy to obtain, but the Gold Yuan Pill with a thirty percent success rate is not easy to come by. So, when we learned that your pavilion has an alchemist who can refine a Foundation Building pill with a thirty percent success rate, we saw hope and wanted to meet this alchemist."
With that, Ge Wen bowed deeply again, his face full of apology, "I was a bit frivolous and disrespectful in my words and actions before. I offended you, Liu Xiaoxian. To show my apology, I have prepared some precious materials. I hope you can take a look."
After speaking, Ge Wen took out a storage bag and handed it to Liu Xiaoxian with both hands.
But Liu Xiaoxian didn't take it, instead, he narrowed his golden eyes and stared at him.
Ge Wen placed the storage bag on the table and sighed, "I have seen the Foundation Building pill before. It has a strong fragrance and a uniform and transparent color, proving that the alchemist's skills are extraordinary and definitely not a second-grade alchemist."
With such an alchemist, if they can refine the Gold Yuan Pill in the future, they will definitely be able to refine a Gold Yuan Pill with a thirty percent success rate.
As for the issue of resources, if you have any needs, our Shanggu City can provide immediate assistance. We just hope that within eight years, the mysterious alchemist can refine a Gold Yuan Pill with a thirty percent success rate..."
Upon hearing these words, Li Guanxuan couldn't help but secretly complain. He is not even at the peak of Qi Refining now, how can he be expected to refine a Gold Yuan Pill with a thirty percent success rate? Who on earth hasn't woken up yet?
And I don't want to bear this kind of pressure.
If he fails to refine the Gold Yuan Pill, won't the Lord of Shanggu City be in trouble along with me?
Fortunately, my identity hasn't been exposed, otherwise, it would be really troublesome.
Liu Xiaoxian read his thoughts and it's no wonder Shanggu City came up with the idea of an auction...
Ten years, no, it may be even shorter to refine a Gold Core Pill with a thirty percent success rate. Which alchemist can guarantee such a thing?
"I can't promise you this, a Gold Core Pill with a thirty percent success rate... as far as I know, only a third-grade high-quality alchemist or a fourth-grade alchemist can refine it. To expect a second-grade alchemist to refine such a pill..." Liu Xiaoxian shook his head and sighed, "Ge Shiyé, I hope you can understand."
Ge Wen smiled bitterly, "How about a twenty-five percent chance?"
As a businessman and doing business in Shanggu City, Liu Xiaoxian couldn't be too absolute in his words, so he said, "Alright, I will relay this matter to that alchemist, but I can't guarantee whether he can refine the Gold Core Pill that the Lord of the City needs within eight years. I believe he won't dare to guarantee it either, but he will do his best."
"But please rest assured, Ge Shiyé and the Lord of the City, Myriad Manifestations Pavilion has a wide business network. If there is an opportunity, I will apply to the headquarters for a Gold Core Pill with a thirty percent success rate to help the Lord of the City overcome this difficulty and condense the Gold Core."
If there is an opportunity?
Who knows when this opportunity will come.
Moreover, if Liu Xiaoxian can obtain a Gold Core Pill with a thirty percent success rate, he will definitely take it himself and directly enter the Gold Core stage. Why would he care about the life and death of the Lord of Shanggu City?
Before condensing the Gold Core, the Lord of Shanggu City is still someone of importance.
After condensing the Gold Core...
Sorry, with a slap, I can easily kill you.
Seeing that things had come to this point, Ge Wen knew that continuing the conversation would be useless and sighed, "Well, that's all I can do..."
After that, Ge Wen took his leave from Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.
Li Guanxuan watched Ge Wen leave and frowned, "This Ge Shiyé from Shanggu City is not someone who easily gives up."
"In the next ten years, you should come to Shanggu City less," Liu Xiaoxian said with a serious expression, "Ge Wen's scheming and city are much deeper than you can imagine. This person is like a venomous snake. A sudden bite from him can leave you lightly injured or even dead."
"If we agree to their request and can't fulfill it, I'm afraid I'll be the one to take the blame before the Lord of Shanggu City dies peacefully," Li Guanxuan sighed.
The cultivation world is full of crises and killings.
These cultivators can do anything to survive.
Liu Xiaoxian cautioned, "After you return to Silver Maple City, don't tell anyone about this matter. If the Lord of Shanggu City hears any wind of it, your life will be in danger."
"I understand that. At that time, I didn't even want to listen. I wanted to leave directly," Li Guanxuan said helplessly.
"There's no other way. It's my fault for underestimating the situation and dragging you into it," Liu Xiaoxian rubbed his temples and said, "I never expected that the Lord of Shanggu City only has ten years left to live. If he really dies..."
Liu Xiaoxian didn't continue with the rest of his words.
Once the Lord of Shanggu City dies, there will inevitably be chaos in the city. At that time, the forces of the three major immortal dynasties, Daheng, Daxuan, and Dazhou, will probably all set their sights on this piece of fat meat.
Or...
Those arrogant demonic cultivators may act even faster than them.
"Why say such things? If it weren't for Master's help, I'm afraid I would have been forced to agree to the Lord of Shanggu City already," Li Guanxuan laughed and didn't mind, saying, "Anyway, I'm used to it. I can just stay in Silver Maple City for these ten years. It's not difficult."
Liu Xiaoxian nodded slightly, changed the topic, and said, "The ancestor of the Yushou Family is already preparing to go back and arrange his affairs. He just left the city, and I have set up an ambush on the road he must pass. But because of the matter with the Lord of Shanggu City, I can't personally accompany you, so I can only bring out three peak Foundation Building puppets to help you delay the ancestor and elders of the Yushou Family. Let Shiyue handle the remaining peak Qi Refining cultivators. Can you handle killing You Shaoneng and resolve your grudge?"
"No problem," Li Guanxuan narrowed his eyes, revealing a strong killing intent that was hard to conceal.
Liu Xiaoxian also knew that this idea had been planted in Li Guanxuan's mind since his mid Qi Refining stage.
If thoughts cannot be communicated, it will definitely cause Li Guanxuan to be troubled and unable to successfully build the Foundation, hindering the success of the Foundation Building.
Therefore, in order for Li Guanxuan to successfully break through the Foundation Building, her master must help her disciple by killing You Shaoneng.
...
City Lord's Mansion.
"You didn't agree?"
After seeing the expression on Ge Wen's face, the City Lord in the green robe also guessed the general situation in his heart.
"I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either. Merchants are always so smooth."
Ge Wen sighed and clasped his hands, saying, "I suggest that in the next six years, we try not to trouble Myriad Manifestations Pavilion. If that mysterious alchemist does nothing, then we..."
The City Lord of Shanggu nodded slightly, his eyes indifferent.
Before the end of his life, all the accounts that needed to be settled would naturally be settled one by one.
...
Five hundred miles west of Shanggu City.
The people of the Royal Beast Traveling Family were now lifeless, no one spoke, afraid that a single word would displease the Patriarch and he would slap them to death.
Not a single pill, whether it was the Heavenly Origin Pill or the Yellow Court Pill, was successfully bid for.
This trip to Shanggu City to participate in the auction was completely in vain.
"Alas, it's all fate..."
Suddenly, the Patriarch of the Traveling Family seemed to have figured something out.
He looked up at the blue sky, realizing for the first time that the sky could be so beautiful, so enchanting.
At this moment, the spirit pet, the Black Snake, behind the Patriarch of the Traveling Family let out an urgent hiss, reminding the Patriarch that there was danger ahead.
The Patriarch of the Traveling Family also noticed it.
But when he sensed the aura of three peak Foundation Building cultivators ahead, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he subconsciously said:
"Elder..."
Before he could finish his sentence, one of the "people" threw out a formation map, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. A huge formation descended from the sky and pressed down.
In an instant, the people of the Royal Beast Traveling Family were all trapped in the formation.
"Boom!"
Only one person was kicked out of the formation.
You Shaoneng looked around and found that there were not many people, and the environment had not changed at all, and a smile appeared on his face.
Escaped?
However, when he was about to leave this place, he found that there was another formation outside the formation.
"Swoosh!"
A flying sword came through the air.
You Shaoneng was already on high alert, extremely vigilant in his heart, so when the flying sword attacked, he immediately used a magic weapon to block it.
"Who are you? I don't know where the Royal Beast Traveling Family of Huajing Immortal City has offended you. Can you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, five more flying swords shot out from the void, tearing through the sky with a cold aura.
You Shaoneng had just blocked five flying swords, but unexpectedly, four more flying swords attacked, piercing through his chest in an instant.
A portrait appeared in front of You Shaoneng, and a cold voice sounded.
"Do you still remember the couple?"
