A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

The room was spotless, and the aloof young man seemed prepared to be kicked out at any moment...

Ye Chen took a stroll around and was very satisfied with the courtyard. He immediately decided to stay here for the time being and make further plans after he had absorbed the Qi into his body.

He looked up at Lin Ningxue in front of him, and seemed to remember something, asking curiously.

"Do you know anything about elixirs?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ningxue hesitated before nodding, then quickly shook her head and began to explain.

"Senior brother, I can only identify most pills, but I don't have the skill to refine them..."

She's just a lowly outer disciple, how could she possibly have the skills of an alchemist? If she did, she wouldn't be staying in the outer sect.

"As long as you can identify it, you don't need to refine pills..."

Ye Chen waved his hand and said with a delighted expression.

He then squatted down and took out several storage bags from his arms...

Besides the storage bags just snatched from the cold-blooded youth, there were also the three disciples he had killed earlier, and the five storage bags he had taken from the steward of the chores department...

Ye Chen poured all the bottles and jars from the storage bags onto the ground...

"Senior brother, what are you doing...?"

Lin Ningxue asked in confusion, but stopped mid-sentence, staring wide-eyed in shock at the small mountain of porcelain vases piled on the ground...

"So...so many pills?"

"Senior brother, you..."

The way she looked at Ye Chen changed...

Putting aside the quality of the pills, these pills alone are incredibly valuable; she couldn't accumulate this many pills even after several years of hard work...

Could it be that my senior brother stole all these pills?

If that's the case, then robbing others to cultivate is indeed faster...

"Don't just stand there, quickly help me see what these pills are and what effects they will have after being taken..." Ye Chen looked up at Lin Ningxue, who was still in a daze, and urged her.

"Huh? Okay..."

Lin Ningxue snapped out of her daze, nodded quickly, and squatted down like Ye Chen.

He reached for the white porcelain bottle in front of him, uncorked it, poured out a pill, and brought it close to his nose to smell it...

"This is a Grade Two Spirit Gathering Pill; taking it will accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy..."

After saying that, she poured the pills back into her hand and put them aside.

"A second-grade pill?" Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, not knowing much about the different grades of pills.

Seeing this, Lin Ningxue looked at Ye Chen with a puzzled expression and patiently explained.

"There are ten grades of elixirs, from grade one to grade nine, with grade nine and above being imperial grade!"

"The first to third grade pills are just entry-level; they have a mild medicinal aroma and basic effects."

"The pills of the fourth to sixth grade are filled with a fragrant aroma and are dozens of times more effective than those of the entry-level pills."

"Ranks seven through nine are high-grade pills. Their completion can trigger extraordinary phenomena in nature, and their effects are hundreds or even thousands of times stronger!"

"Above that are Emperor-grade pills, which exist only in legends, and almost no alchemist has been able to refine them for thousands of years..."

After hearing Lin Ningxue's explanation, Ye Chen now understood the effects and grades of the pills.

When he looked down at the bottle of second-grade Spirit Gathering Pills, he became indifferent.

"So, this second-grade pill isn't good either; it's just an introductory-level pill..."

Lin Ningxue was stunned for a moment, looked at Ye Chen in front of her, and explained with a wry smile.

"Senior brother, although a second-grade pill is only an entry-level pill, it's still quite good..."

"Outer sect disciples can only receive a maximum of five Grade Two Spirit Gathering Pills per month. To obtain more, they must complete tasks assigned by the sect..."

"As for pills of grade four or higher, there are hardly any to be found in the outer sect. Even the most talented disciples rarely possess mid-grade pills, let alone high-grade ones..."

"I can't even save up many second-grade pills all year round..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nodded in understanding.

"Then you really are too poor..."

After all, most of the pills he had were looted from the outer disciples; everyone else had so many pills, but Lin Ningxue didn't...

Lin Ningxue: ? ? ?

Upon hearing this, Lin Ningxue's gaze towards Ye Chen changed...

That's really hurtful!

The sect only distributes so many pills, which are not enough for cultivation, so where would there be any left over?

Each pill is hard-earned; she works tirelessly in the spirit herb garden, yet she can only accumulate a few second-grade pills...

She wanted to retort, but looking at the mountain of porcelain vases in front of her, she swallowed her words...

The other person certainly had the right to say that; compared to Ye Chen, she was truly poor...

Lin Ningxue silently continued counting the pills...

"This is a Grade Two Spirit Replenishing Pill; it can quickly restore a large amount of spiritual energy after consumption!"

"This is a first-grade Qi-replenishing pill; it can restore your energy after taking it."

After she finished describing each pill, she would set it aside and arrange them in order, putting the same pills together.

He held bottle after bottle of pills in his hand, almost all of them first- or second-grade pills...

"This is... a first-grade love potion..."

Lin Ningxue suddenly paused, her face instantly turning red with embarrassment, and said something she found difficult to say.

"After taking it, it can...enhance your sexual pleasure!"

After she finished speaking, she gave Ye Chen a strange look...

How come my senior brother has such a pill on him?

Could it be that he wants to...?

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, surprised.

"Does your sect usually distribute love potions to its disciples?"

"Of course not..."

Lin Ningxue immediately denied it.

The Qingyun Sect isn't some evil sect; how could they possibly distribute such improper pills to their disciples...?

After all, this kind of elixir is only used during sexual intercourse between men and women!

only...

"Senior brother, isn't this love potion yours?"

"No..." Ye Chen shook his head.

"Where did it come from?" Lin Ningxue asked curiously.

"Stolen..."

Lin Ningxue: ? ? ?

She stared at Ye Chen in astonishment, then, remembering how skillfully he had searched the cold young man's storage bag, she immediately understood...

This is a real robbery...

Ye Chen looked at the bottle of love potion before him. The porcelain bottle was slightly different. After thinking carefully, he realized it seemed to have been poured out of his senior sister Lin Qinshuang's storage bag...

Recalling the scene of the other person and the man making love in the cave, she immediately understood what had happened...

I never imagined that there would be people in the Qingyun Sect engaged in prostitution...

No wonder Senior Sister Lin is so wealthy; it's all hard-earned money.

Lin Ningxue continued counting, and soon the mountain of pills was all sorted out...

The most common type was the second-grade Spirit Gathering Pill, accounting for nearly half. The rest were various first-grade pills, mostly replenishing essence, energy, spirit, and physique, except for the Love Potion.

In addition, a Grade 4 Foundation Establishment Pill was also found!

Lin Ningxue was shocked the moment she saw the Foundation Establishment Pill, and carefully held it in her hands.

"Senior...Senior Brother!"

"This is... a Foundation Establishment Pill!!!"
