"It is only a technique. Why are you making such a big deal out of it", Zhan Chen smiled towards Lan Yueyue.

"But....", Lan Yueyue wanted to say something but her mouth was sealed by Zhan Chen with a kiss.

Zhan Chen gave her a passionate kiss on her lips and she calmed down after seeing his soft gaze towards her.

"Relax. A technique is not a big deal no matter how valuable it is. Moreover, I have given it to other girls also. So, put away your thoughts and cultivate. Your gift will be ready by the time you will finish your cultivation", Zhan Chen spoke. Lan Yueyue nodded her head and sat crosslegged. She closed her eyes and started to cultivate according to the methods of Yin nourishing technique.

Zhan Chen also sat down alongside her. It took only a few moments for him to absorb the little amount of yin essence he had received from her.

He got up and walked out from his room. A smile appeared on his face after he spread his soul consciousness towards the ground floor of the inn.

"The Alchemy association is more efficient than I have expected", Zhan Chen thought to himself.

He met with a widely grinning elder of Alchemy association as soon as he climbed down the stairs. The beautiful attendant girl was also with the elder.

"Seems like I am late", Zhan Chen spoke.

"No, no, not at all", the elder of Alchemy association replied.

Zhan Chen couldn't be more familiar with the elder of Alchemy association as he was the most talkative one among the three elders who examined him.

"I wonder what brings the esteemed elder of Alchemy association to come visit me personally?", Zhan Chen looked towards the elder of the Alchemy association.

"Young friend Chen, how can you say something like this. You are already a pill grandmaster. So, you are already one of our peers", the elder of Alchemy association replied shamelessly.

Zhan Chen smiled inside his mind after hearing the friendly words of the Alchemy association elder. He could see through his motive but he didn't show anything in open.

"Grandmaster Chen, I have forgot to introduce me earlier. I am Cheng Shao. You can call me elder Cheng or whatever you like", the elder of Alchemy association spoke.

"Elder Cheng then", Zhan Chen nodded his head. Cheng Shao smiled after seeing Zhan Chen's response.

"Xiaolian, what are you waiting for? Hand over the herbs we have prepared for young friend Chen", elder Cheng looked towards the beautiful attendant.

The young attendant came out of her stupor and blushed slightly. She took out a spatial ring from her clothes and handed it to Zhan Chen.

Zhan Chen smiled slightly after seeing her nervousness. He could understand why she was watching him with a stupor. In terms of looks, he was already far ahead than his peers.

If his looks could only garner attention from beautiful girls, then his current identity as the youngest pill grand master would made them completely vulnerable to his charm.

"Miss, you are looking more beautiful than the previous time we have met", Zhan Chen made a comment to the blushing beauty. Then he focused his attention on the content of the spatial ring.

A slightly surprised look appeared on his face after he looked through the content.

"Grandmaster Chen, are you satisfied with the things we have prepared for you?", elder Cheng asked.

Zhan Chen nodded his head as he was not aversed to have some more valuable herbs with him. But he still couldn't believe that Alchemy association would give him such valuable materials for free.

He looked towards elder Cheng and his next sentence confirmed his suspicion.

"Grandmaster Chen, I hope you like the small gifts of mine. I have taken them out from my personal collection".

Instead of the Alchemy association, it was elder Cheng Shao who had added the extras in the spatial ring. Zhan Chen looked towards him to know the reason for such valuable gifts.

"I can't deny that your gifts are useful to me in my current situation. Speak, what do you need from me?", Zhan Chen asked elder Cheng.

-----------------

There was a wide smile on the face of elder Cheng as he left the inn with the beautiful attendant. The attendant turned to look towards Zhan Chen and she blushed after seeing Zhan Chen smiled towards her.

"I hope he will not disappoint me", Zhan Chen thought to himself as he watched the retreating figure of elder Cheng.

Elder Cheng wanted to meet his teacher but it was impossible to meet with the Alchemy sage in his current situation. Zhan Chen could understand why elder Cheng was so desperate. So, he proposed a deal to elder Cheng. Elder Cheng readily accepted his offer and both parties ended their conversation with a satisfied smile on their faces.

"I can guide him to be an Alchemy king but he has to help me in raising the army of my Zhan family. Otherwise, there will be no deal between us", Zhan Chen thought to himself.

He went back to his room and put out the profound grade pill furnace he was previously using. He brought out some jade containers and arranged them in an orderly fashion.

"Time to refine", he thought inside his mind and brought out the herbs he had received from the Alchemy association.

'Branch of Green wood'

'Flower of Akasia'

'Roseweed'

and finally the soul nourishing herb, 'Blue Amaryllis',

Zhan Chen took out all the required herbs from his spatial ring and arranged them by his side.

He put the flower of Akasia in the pill furnace first and started refining. One after another herbs turned into medical essence and Zhan Chen stored them in the jade containers. The last herb, he picked up was the Blue amaryllis.

It was gorgerous flower with blue petals. Zhan Chen plucked the petals skillfully and put them inside the pill furnace. It took only five minutes for him to turn the petals of Blue amaryllis into medical essence.

Zhan Chen started to fuse the medical essence one with another and it took another fifteen minutes for him to complete the process.

A bluish translucent pill was inside the pill furnace when Zhan Chen took away the lead of the pill furnace. A smile appeared on his face when he saw the twitching nose of Lan Yueyue.

It had been quite a long time since Lan Yueyue had started cultivating and she finally came out of her seclusion after smelling the thick aroma of a medicinal pill.

Zhan Chen took out the pill and placed it inside a jade container. Then he threw it towards the direction of Lan Yueyue.

"Take it. It is a gift from me", Zhan Chen spoke. Lan Yueyue stretched her hand and picked up the jade container from the air.

An astonished look appeared on her face after she saw the pill inside the jade container. She hurriedly open up the jade container and the thick aroma from earlier again assailed her nose.

"A fifth grade pill!", she looked towards Zhan Chen with a surprised expression on her face. Zhan Chen nodded his head in response to her question.

"What pill is it?", Lan Yueyue asked after a moment.

"Ascension spirit pill", Zhan Chen replied in a plain tone.
