Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

"Hmph, stop pretending!" the white-robed youth sneered. "There's no point in continuing this pretense. Everyone here is a sensible person; playing dumb won't work!"

The middle-aged man with jet-black hair finally spoke slowly: "Young friend, you should have officially embarked on the path of cultivation by now. I see you are full of energy and spirit; you must have already reached the first level of Qi Refining!"

Ye Chen looked at the middle-aged man with jet-black hair and thought to himself, "This guy has a good eye."

They could actually tell he was a cultivator!

You can also tell he's reached the first level of Qi cultivation...

Ye Chen didn't know whether he should praise him or not.

However, he must have been mistaken about the first level of the Qi Refining.

It's estimated that the timeline is calculated backwards from the time after his transformation began.

Ye Chen casually remarked, "Are you some kind of reclusive master? How could you tell?"

The middle-aged man with jet-black hair smiled knowingly: "I dare not claim to be a reclusive master. Everyone calls me the Nameless Master. It's not difficult for me to see through you as a Qi Refining Level 1 cultivator!"

An anonymous master?

Oh, so this person is the nameless master?

He had only heard the name in an underground casino, and now he was finally seeing the real person.

Ye Chen asked with an admiring look, "May I ask what level you have reached in your cultivation, Master? Could you perhaps offer some guidance?"

The nameless master was quite satisfied with Ye Chen's attitude and found it very pleasing.

He coughed lightly: "I've cultivated for many years and am now at the sixth level of Qi Refining. If you cultivate diligently, you might reach my level in ten or twenty years!"

Ye Chen thought to himself, "So he's only at the sixth level of Qi Refining. I thought he was a master."

Isn't this even worse than his dog?

Big Yellow has already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, what's with this guy being so arrogant!

"Boy, don't think you can be arrogant just because you've embarked on the path of cultivation. Let me tell you, I can suppress you just the same. I've already reached the third level of Qi Refining!"

The young man in white raised his chin and looked at Ye Chen with a hint of mockery.

It gives off a feeling of superiors looking down on their subordinates.

"Hey, don't talk nonsense!" The head of the Wang family waved his hand.

"Mr. Ye, my Wang family is willing to pay a high price to acquire your pill formula and your cultivation heritage. Name your price!"

The head of the Wang family looked at Ye Chen with a smile.

"You guys are really convinced that I'm the one who inherited it, aren't you?" Ye Chen shook his head.

The nameless master chuckled lightly: "Otherwise what? I've seen everything you've said and done since you entered. The unique arrogance of cultivators is something ordinary people don't possess. Considering some of your recent actions, it's not hard to draw this conclusion. Even if you don't admit it, you can't change this fact!"

The head of the Wang family made a direct offer: "Here's the deal: I'll offer you 10 billion. You hand over your inheritance, and I'll wipe the slate clean of your killing my son. From now on, we'll go our separate ways!"

Ye Chen sighed softly: "Let's put aside whether I have any so-called inheritance. Even if I did, do you think 10 billion could buy it?"

The young man in white scoffed, "Kid, I think you won't learn your lesson until you're faced with death. A billion in cash can buy your life, but you're trying to ask for an exorbitant price?"

"Don't you understand your own predicament? Do you really think you can return safely without handing over the inheritance today? You're too naive!"

"Oh, you want to use force? Is there no law anymore?" Ye Chen glanced at the young man in white.

The young man in white glared angrily: "What a joke! The law? The Wang family is the law in Lucheng! Besides, we Xuanmen people transcend worldly affairs, so don't even think about using worldly methods to intimidate us. If you know what's good for you, you'll suffer less. Otherwise, I don't mind letting you know the difference between the first level of Qi Refining and the third level!"

Ye Chen ignored the white-robed youth and instead looked at the nameless master: "Since you've already reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, you must have your own inheritance, so why are you so fixated on what others have?"

The nameless master's lips curled slightly: "On the path of cultivation, one can only achieve greater success by learning from others' strengths and compensating for one's weaknesses, and by constantly verifying one's own abilities. If I'm not mistaken, you must have received the inheritance of a senior alchemist. I'm very interested in your alchemy inheritance, and I hope you'll part with it!"

At this point, a fiery glint flashed in the nameless master's eyes, his greed undisguised!

Anyone with eyes can see that he is a big fan of so-called alchemy.

"You've convinced me so much, I almost believed you myself! How much do you guys know about alchemy?" Ye Chen asked casually.

"I know you're trying to gather information, but I can tell you something else!" the nameless master said slowly.

"The path of alchemy has declined. Although some people still know how to refine ordinary pills, no one can refine a spiritual pill like yours that produces immediate results. Now that you are a member of the Xuanmen, you have the responsibility and obligation to hand over your alchemy inheritance so that the path of alchemy can regain its glory."

"Young friend Ye, one cannot be too concerned with gains and losses on the path of cultivation. One must consider the greater good. If you hand it over, everyone will remember your kindness, and future generations will praise your selflessness and the great contribution you have made to the Dao of Alchemy!"

The nameless master spoke eloquently and with great righteousness.

It was as if Ye Chen was a sinner of the Xuanmen sect if he didn't hand over the so-called alchemy inheritance.

Ye Chen found it amusing; he didn't even know which way the Xuanmen gate faced, yet this nameless master was telling him all this.

"Master, I'm quite interested in your legacy. Why don't you show it to me so we can verify it?" Ye Chen stared at the nameless master with an innocent expression.

The nameless master narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ye Chen: "I am the legitimate successor of this lineage. Unless you become a disciple of my sect, I will not pass on my teachings to anyone else!"

Ye Chen curled his lip: "You're so stingy. Look, I want to see it but you won't let me, so why should I hand over this so-called inheritance?"

The nameless master's face twitched; he hadn't expected Ye Chen to be waiting for him there.

Just then, the head of the Wang family laughed: "Mr. Ye, it's fine if you don't hand it over. I know you don't have anything on you. Since the item isn't on you, it must be at your house. It's not very safe to keep such a valuable item at home!"

The head of the Wang family smiled meaningfully.

"You sent people to my house? Damn it, can't you, the head of the Wang family, have any shame?" Ye Chen frowned and scolded.

"Mr. Ye, please don't get agitated. Rest assured, after I receive your inheritance, what I just said will still stand. Not only will I not harm you, I'll also give you 10 billion!"

The head of the Wang family had a confident and assured expression, as if he had Ye Chen completely under his control today.

The young man in white snorted coldly and looked at Ye Chen with a hint of pity.

The nameless master couldn't hide his joy: "Young friend Ye, don't get too worked up. Ordinary people can't handle such good things. We're doing this for your own good. If others find out, they might even do something like murder and robbery. It's not bad to take the money and live a good life as a happy rogue cultivator!"
