Hearing his words, the Third Elder and Ao Yan’s expressions changed slightly. They knew where the Cleansing Pill came from.

For a moment, their expressions were a little awkward.

“What’s wrong?” Elder Jiang asked in surprise.

“It’s okay. This time, I came here to see an old friend and also to see the situation of my disciple and me.”

After chatting for half a day, the Third Elder began to get down to business. “I’ve got the spirit herbs. Can you refine the pills today?”

“You’ve got the Treasure Lotus? Since that’s the case, the herbs are complete. However, I’m afraid I won’t be able to refine them today. It just so happens that you haven’t been here for a long time. You can stay here for a few days.”

“Then, I won’t stand on ceremony.”

There was no harm in staying here for a few days since he had nothing to do anyway. After chatting for a while, the Third Elder got up and was ready to get down to business. At this moment, he suddenly realized that Ao Cheng and Jiang Xiaobai had disappeared!

“Oh no. Ao Cheng, that dog, must have gone out to stir up trouble again!” Ao Yan immediately frowned when she saw this.

Elder Jiang said with a smile, “It’s alright. Young Master Ao Cheng can be considered a regular guest of Five Lotus Mountain. Your Highness, there’s no need to worry. Let’s go. I’ll bring you to my alchemy room to have a look. Recently, I’ve developed a pretty good pill.”

Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Cheng walked side by side on the streets of Five Lotus Mountain. All kinds of lively sounds could be heard from the surroundings. It appeared that this place was very prosperous.

“Mortal, don’t brag to me. Things like pill refining are not something that can be done just because you say so. Now, just admit your cowardice to me and this matter will be over. This Young Master will not pursue it.”

Ao Cheng chuckled and said, “It won’t be good if you embarrass yourself later.”

Jiang Xiaobai only smiled at this and didn’t say anything. What a joke. Would he embarrass himself?

With his current alchemy strength, he would probably be able to easily beat up the master of Five Lotus Mountain.

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai like this, Ao Cheng was amused. “Alright, since you want to pretend, then this Young Master will expose your hypocritical face today. We will arrive in front.”

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to the front of a courtyard. A rich medicinal fragrance came from inside. Clearly, there was someone refining pills inside.

With our Ao Cheng’s young master style of doing things, he naturally did not care about other people. He went forward and smashed the door.

“Xu, get out and open the door for this Young Master.” Ao Cheng’s voice was loud.

Just as he started to smash the door, he heard a series of clanging sounds coming from inside. Not long after, a low muffled sound was heard.

Creak, creak. The courtyard door opened. A thin and weak youth with messy clothes and a pitch-black face walked out.

“Ao Cheng!”

When the youth saw Ao Cheng, he gnashed his teeth. “Did I owe you in my previous life? Every time I see you, nothing good happens. Compensate me a cauldron of pills!”

Ao Cheng had an indifferent expression. He waved his hand and two high-grade spirit stones appeared in his hand. “Isn’t it just a cauldron of pills? How much can it be worth? When have I ever mistreated you?”

When he saw that there were spirit stones, Xu Nianliang’s expression turned much better. He snatched the spirit stones and walked inside. Ao Cheng then stepped into the courtyard.

Looking at the decorations in the courtyard, Jiang Xiaobai could not help but be stunned. It was too poor inside!

In the huge courtyard, other than a pill furnace and some cleaning things, there was nothing else. The house also looked shabby. Those who did not know would think that they had come to the home of a poor family.

“Tell me, why are you looking for me? Let me make it clear in advance. If you want me to refine pills, you have to prepare the spirit herbs yourself.”

Xu Nianliang said, “I can’t open the furnace here anymore. It’s already good enough that I don’t starve to death.”

Hearing this, Ao Cheng’s eyes widened. “D*mn, I think I just gave you a hundred high-grade spirit stones last month. That’s high-grade spirit stones, not an ordinary spirit stone. What did you do!?”

“Of course, I bought spirit herbs to refine pills. What else can I do? Hurry up, I have inspiration now. I still have to continue refining pills in a while,” Xu Nianliang shouted.

Ao Cheng was quite speechless about this.

Before he came, he had already roughly explained to Jiang Xiaobai that he had invested in a middle-grade alchemist in Five Lotus Mountain. He had already achieved such accomplishments in less than a hundred years of cultivation. In the future, he would definitely become a divine-grade alchemist.

Jiang Xiaobai was a little curious. As a second-generation descendant of the Dragon Clan, he actually wanted to invest in a middle-grade alchemist. Shouldn’t he go directly to a divine-grade alchemist to build a good relationship with them?

According to Ao Cheng’s words, those alchemists had weird temperaments and he couldn’t even talk to them for three sentences. Moreover, they didn’t care about your identity or whether you had money. They were very difficult to deal with.

It was precisely because of this that Ao Cheng didn’t tell Xu Nianliang about his identity.

At this moment, Xu Nianliang was sitting in front of the alchemy furnace. As he was cleaning up the discarded medicinal dregs, he said, “Why did you come to me?”

“It’s nothing. My friend was bragging to me that he is a high-grade alchemist. I brought him here to compete with you,” Ao Cheng said indifferently.

Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes almost popped out. When did he say that he was a high-grade alchemist?

Looking at Ao Cheng’s lying face, Jiang Xiaobai had a clearer understanding of this guy’s shamelessness.

“A high-level alchemist? You? Impossible!”

Xu Nianliang suddenly stood up and walked in front of Jiang Xiaobai to examine him carefully. “How old are you? Moreover, your cultivation is only in the Qi Refinement realm. Even if you are born with a strong soul and started learning alchemy from your mother’s womb, it’s still impossible!”

“Don’t doubt it. My friend is very powerful. How about it? Show me your skills.” Ao Cheng looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a smile.

From the looks of it, it was obvious that he wanted to see Jiang Xiaobai embarrass himself.

Moreover, if Jiang Xiaobai dared to say that he was bragging and didn’t know how to refine pills, then it would be completely impossible for him to conquer Ao Cheng.

“In that case, I’ll just refine some random pills,” Jiang Xiaobai said with a faint smile.

Xu Nianliang’s face was full of ridicule. “You? Stop joking. Don’t say that you can concoct high-grade pills. Even if you can even refine pills, I’ll just kneel down and call you daddy!”

“Hey, hey, hey, that won’t work. Why do you need to find yourself a dad?” Jiang Xiaobai laughed.

Xu Nianliang was almost angered to death.

At this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open again. A dignified young man in luxurious clothes walked in.

“Xiao Liang, what have you been doing recently? Do you have the time? Come over and help me. I’m going to start researching the Cleansing Pill!”

The young man gave off a scholarly aura. His every move was scholarly. Compared to Ao Cheng, they were at two extremes!

What shocked Jiang Xiaobai was that this guy immediately said that he wanted to research the Cleansing Pill!

The Cleansing Pill was refined by him. It was easy to say, but it was also difficult to say. However, there was no doubt that Jiang Xiaobai knew that the Cleansing Pill was not something that the person in front of him could research..
