Chapter 78: Top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the next few days, Chen An basically left early in the morning and returned late at night every day. Every day, he would refine pills in the high-intensity alchemy room of the Treasure Hall.

Hard work was hard work.

Fortunately, he could complete the mission every day.

He had worked hard and was happy.

During this period, Chen An saw that Sect Master Zhu basically came to look for Shen Qingyi every other day. On the surface, he was here to be a bootlicker, but in reality, his every word and action was hinting to Shen Qingyi to help him deal with the Black Iron Manor.

However, Shen Qingyi refused decisively.

It had been almost ten days. She rejected him every day.

After that, he didn’t see Sect Master Zhu come.

He seemed to have given up.

Through this period of observation and hearing, Chen An learned that Shen Qingyi was a powerful mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

However, he did not know how many levels there were in the middle stage.

Chen An only knew one thing: Shen Qingyi was invincible in the Bamboo Leaf Forest.

At the same time, he also understood the strength of the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Manor.

On the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s side, the leader, Zhu Tiancheng, was an Almighty whose cultivation had reached the third level of Foundation Establishment. He had seven first-level Foundation Establishment elders under him.

On the Black Iron Manor’s side, the leader, Hong Zetian, was an Almighty who had reached the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. He had ten Almighty Foundation Establishment elders under him, and two of them had reached the second level of Foundation Establishment.

In comparison, the Bamboo Leaf Gang was completely defeated by the Black Iron Manor.

Therefore, it was no wonder that the Bamboo Leaf Gang was suppressed by the Black Iron Manor.

The difference in strength was too great.

In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.

This day was the thirteenth day since the test began.

At 1:00 pm, after completing today’s alchemy mission, Chen An walked out of the alchemy room of the Treasure Hall.

He came to Shopkeeper Liu’s side and handed the photographic stone and medicine bottle in his hand to him. He said, “Shopkeeper Liu, these are the 150 Spirit Concentration Pills refined today. Please take care of them.”

Shopkeeper Liu counted the number. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he could not help but smile and say, “Alchemist Chen, including the 150 Spirit Concentration Pills today, the total number of pills you refined is 1,950. You only need to refine 50 more tomorrow and you will pass the test. Congratulations!”

I’m just qualified to be recommended. Whether I can join or not depends on the end. Shopkeeper Liu, don’t be happy for me too soon.”

Chen An was very stable. He would not relax until the last moment, afraid that he would drop the ball and fail if he got complacent.

At this moment, Pan Hui walked over from a corner of the Treasure Hall and said to Chen An with a smile, “Alchemist Chen, I made some spirit dessert for Qingyi to eat. I also made one for you. Come with me to try it.”

“Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Cultivator Pan, but I have something to do and have to go home. I’ll take my leave first.”

Chen An politely declined Pan Hui’s good intentions and left after saying this.

Now that he knew that Shen Qingyi was the fiancee of the leader of the Bamboo Leaf Gang, he had to stay away from her for the safety of himself and his family.

There were many beautiful flowers in this world. There was no need to pluck a flower with a poisonous snake under it.

No matter how beautiful this flower was, it was not worth it.

“Qingyi, why do 1 feel like Alchemist Chen has been deliberately alienating us recently?”

When they returned to the place where they drank the dessert, Pan Hui said gloomily.

Shen Qingyi took a sip of dessert and explained calmly, “Alchemist Chen is worried that I’m Sect Master Zhu’s fiancee, so he deliberately distanced himself from me so as to not offend Sect Master Zhu. Pan Hui, don’t disturb Alchemist Chen in the future.”

“Alchemist Chen is too cowardly!” Pan Hui frowned slightly and said unhappily.

Because her husband had been brought to the battlefield by the Bamboo Leaf Gang and no one knew if he was dead or alive, she had always had a lot of objections to Sect Master Zhu. Every day, she wanted to matchmake Shen Qingyi and Chen An so that she could ruin the engagement between Shen Qingyi and Sect Master Zhu out of revenge and spite.

However, she did not expect Chen An to be a coward and started to distance himself from her and Shen Qingyi.

This made her very dissatisfied.

After drinking the dessert a moment later, Pan Hui followed Shen Qingyi to her room and badmouthed Sect Master Zhu to her.

It was said that during the battle between the two gangs, Sect Master Zhu had set all kinds of excessive rules and did not treat the residents of the Bamboo Leaf Forest as humans at all, causing many residents to die tragically.

She said that her husband had been brought to the battlefield by the Bamboo Leaf Gang and his outcome was still unknown.

It was said that instead of marrying Sect Master Zhu, Shen Qingyi might as well marry Chen An.

It was said that Chen An was handsome and a second-grade Alchemist. Moreover, he was respectful towards his wives. He was famous for being affectionate in the core area.

When Shen Qingyi heard this, she said, “Pan Hui, just tell me this in private.

Don’t say this outside. Not only will you harm Alchemist Chen, but you will also harm yourself.”

“Don’t worry. I’m not stupid. I know what to say and what not to say.”

Pan Hui brushed the hair behind her ear and asked with a smile, “By the way, Qingyi, what do you think of Alchemist Chen?”

“Handsome, gentle, kind, and talented, but 1 don’t have any thoughts about him. It’s better to say that 1 don’t have any thoughts about men. 1 only want to cultivate till 1 reach the Golden Core.”

Shen Qingyi said indifferently.

Pan Hui said enviously, “I’m willing to die alone if 1 can reach the late stage of Qi Refining, let alone reach the Golden Core realm. Unfortunately, I’m only a low-level Cultivator after all. 1 can only find a man to rely on. Otherwise, even survival will be a problem.”

As she spoke, she continued, “If my husband died on the battlefield and Alchemist Chen doesn’t despise me, 1 will definitely clean up well and send myself to be tortured by him.”

“Pan Hui, don’t belittle yourself.”

“Qingyi, you don’t understand the difficulties of low-level Cultivators like us…”

While Pan Hui and Shen Qingyi were chatting, in the guest room next door, a slightly charming woman was eavesdropping on their conversation while having fun with her man.

This was a gang member that the Bamboo Leaf Gang had specially spent a lot of resources to nurture as a spy. As long as they were close enough, a master-level ‘Eavesdropping Technique’ could easily break through any soundproofing method of a Foundation Establishment expert.

This couple had been planted by Sect Master Zhu in the Treasure Hall in the past. Now, they could be used to monitor Shen Qingyi.

After a while, the woman did not even bother to put on her clothes. She immediately began to write a secret letter.

Then, she reached out and summoned a spirit pigeon to send the secret letter to Sect Master Zhu.

On the other side, Green Willow Alley.

Chen An walked into the house and saw a familiar scene these few days. His daughter, Chen Yuejian, was forced by Wen Zhiyun to learn how to draw Qi into her body with a bitter expression.

“Father—”

When Chen Yuejian saw Chen An return, she immediately cried out to him.

The last word ‘father’ was drawn out, sounding extremely aggrieved.

“Little Yuejian, be good and listen to your Mother Wen.”

Chen An went forward and stroked his daughter’s head, asking her to continue learning how to draw Qi into her body.

This was because the sooner his daughter learned to draw Qi into her body, the sooner he could obtain the system’s reward.

In the blink of an eye, more than an hour passed.

Gu Xinyue made dinner and called them to the hall for dinner.

Chen An and Song Huaying was at the table.

Wen Zhiyun and Chen Yuejian were not on the table yet.

“Mother Wen, 1 want to eat.”

Smelling the fragrance of food wafting from the hall, Chen Yuejian was so hungry that her stomach was rumbling. The expression on her face was pitiful and helpless.

However, Wen Zhiyun, who usually doted on her, was unmoved when she saw this. She said coldly, “You can already sense spiritual energy and mobilize the spiritual energy in the air. You’re only one step away from learning how to draw spiritual energy into your body, gritted your teeth and persevered. You can only eat after you have mastered it today.”

“Ugh—”

Chen Yuejian felt so aggrieved that she wanted to cry, but under Wen Zhiyun’s abuse, she could only endure her hunger and persist.

Half an incense stick of time later, the three people in the hall were full.

Chen Yuejian was still learning how to draw Qi into his body in the courtyard.

Wen Zhiyun was in charge of supervising from the side.

“Mother!”

“Father

Seeing her parents come out of the house, Chen Yuejian immediately felt so aggrieved that she wanted to cry.

Wen Zhiyun glared at her. “It’s useless no matter who you call. In this house, even your father has to listen to me obediently. Continue to persevere!”

When Chen An heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He thought to himself that this arrogant concubine was getting more and more arrogant just because she was pregnant. In the future, when the child was born, he would definitely teach her a lesson.

“Husband, why don’t you let Little Yuejian Jian in for dinner first?”

Song Huaying, who had always been strict with her daughter, now felt that her daughter was pitiful. She could not bear to see her starve.

However, she did not dare to tell Wen Zhiyun. She only dared to tell Chen An.

Chen An actually felt that Wen Zhiyun’s actions were not appropriate.

If Wen Zhiyun was so strict with her own daughter, there would be no problem.

But the problem was that Chen Yuejian was Song Huaying’s daughter.

Just as Chen An was thinking about how to speak up so that he could protect both at the same time, there was clear movement in the surrounding air.

He looked in the direction of the air flow and saw his daughter, Chen Yuejian, frowning.

The air was rushing into his daughter’s body?

His daughter has learned how to draw Qi into her body!!!

Chen An had just reacted and before he could say anything excitedly, a notification suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Your daughter, Chen Yuejian, has mastered the method of drawing Qi into her body and embarked on the first step on the path to immortality. You are rewarded with a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill..]
