Seeking the Immortal Way

Li Mengqi looked at Lin Yan. Although this sentence was a little arrogant, the confidence in Lin Yan's eyes showed that this sentence was not a joke.

The two of them looked down at the sea of clouds and talked about what had happened in the recent past. There seemed to be endless things to talk about and they even forgot the time.

Li Mengqi waved goodbye with Lin Yan and walked in the direction of their own residence.

Lin Yan watched Li Mengqi's back and the corners of her mouth raised to form a curve. Thinking back to what happened in kitchen today, he felt that Li Mengqi was right, with Ruan Qianqiu's personality, during this period of time, he would naturally come find him to take revenge.

Returning to his residence, Long Fei saw that Lin Yan had returned, and anxiously welcomed him. The first thing he did was shout that he wanted to go eat, and like before, he pulled the two of them and walked towards the kitchen.

After dinner, Lin Yan invited Senior Sister Xu Jing to drink some tea.

Everyone went to Senior Sister Xu Jing's room and drank tea and chatted, discussing the events that had transpired in the past few days.

The meticulous Lin Yan discovered that there seemed to be a trace of melancholy between the brows of Senior Sister Xu Jing, as if there was something on her mind. From the time she met Senior Sister Xu Jing, Lin Yan had rarely seen her expression like this.

After the crowd dispersed, Lin Yan asked Xu Jing: "Senior sister, I feel like you have something on your mind. Did you encounter any problems?"

Xu Jing forced out a smile on her face, and said to Lin Yan: "Looks like your observation skills are indeed good, you're right, I do have something on my mind, what do you think about my pill refining abilities?"

Lin Yan thought for a while and said: "Senior Sister's pill refining ability is considered top-notch. No matter what kind of Pills it is, Senior Sister can successfully refine it, and it is extremely perfect. Her ability to refine pills, is worthy of respect."

Once again, he sighed and said: "However, there is still a higher mountain. I have represented the Sky Cloud Martial Sect in this kind of exchange many times, and almost every year, I will lose to the Sun Boyan of the flying cloud gate. This person has extraordinary attainments in the Pill Dao, and every time, no matter how hard I try, I will not be able to win against him."

After pausing for a moment, Xu Jing continued, "Before, I had an exchange with my master who concocted pills, and all the details were taken into account. In almost every competition, I would achieve perfection, but when the results came out, the quality of the Pills that Sun Boyan refined was better than mine.

"If it wasn't for Sect Leader's strong request to participate in this exchange, I really didn't want to come. I didn't want to lose to him again and cause Sky Cloud Martial Sect's face to fall to the ground."

After hearing what Senior Sister Xu Jing said, Lin Yan seemed to have thought of something. After knowing Xu Jing, the majority of the Pills that he had used were things that she had refined herself, and these Pills were all of high quality, with extremely good medicinal effects. Even if they were sold in the sect's underground market, they would still sell for a good price.

From this point of view, Lin Yan felt that Senior Sister Xu Jing's pill refining skills were definitely extraordinary. Someone who could make her feel nervous, was probably someone extraordinary.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yan smiled and said to Xu Jing: "Senior sister, you are giving yourself too much pressure now, as long as you relax your emotions and display your normal level, I want to believe that with your strength, you will definitely be able to defeat Sun Boyan. Furthermore, this is just an exchange, the victor is only exchanging experiences with the others.

Xu Jing sighed once again, and said to Lin Yan: "Although this is the Sect's exchange gathering, where the main focus is on learning from each other, but there is still competition here, and the disciples all want to get into a higher position in the competition. If they lose, it would truly be a disgrace."

Lin Yan thought for a while, then asked Xu Jing: "Okay, since Senior Sister wants to win, why don't I help you?"

"You?" Xu Jing was a little doubtful in her heart. Frowning, he asked Lin Yan in a confused manner: "You have not received any real pill refining training, although you have been in my pill room for awhile, you are still not a real pill refiner. You aren't going to represent me and participate in the competition right?"

Lin Yan laughed and said: "In terms of pill refining, I only know a little more about pill refining than the outsider. In terms of pill refining, I really cannot, but my observation skills are still not bad, I can pick out a few good quality medicinal herbs, and that will greatly increase the success rate of the Pills, and at the same time enhance the quality of the Pills, but the most important question is, can I stay by Senior Sister's side and help?"

Xu Jing thought for a bit, and then her eyes suddenly lit up, and said to Lin Yan: "Sure, I can let you stay by my side during the competition, and every pill refiner that goes to the competition can bring along a Dan Tong, Dan Tong's main mission is to help choose the ingredients, when the pill refiners need something, Dan Tong will need to quickly find the ingredients on the shelves."

Pausing for a moment, Xu Jing continued to shake her head: "However, this point is a little disadvantageous for us, but looking at the surrounding environment, it is rather disadvantageous for us. In the last Pill Refining Exchange Conference, when I was fighting with Sun Boyan, his subordinate Dan Tong was able to search for any materials very quickly, and the reason for this is because when they are training, they made Dan Tong forcefully remember the location of the ingredients.

"At the same time, the Spirit Grass and ingredients here are all in a mess. Whoever can save more time and choose the best materials from the materials would be extremely helpful to the success rate of refining pills, so Dan Tong is very important, it's just that …"

Lin Yan looked at Xu Jing, who seemed like she wanted to say something, and immediately asked: What is it?

Xu Jing said somewhat embarrassedly: "The only thing is that I'll have to inconvenience you, the son of heaven, to become my Dan Tong."

Lin Yan laughed and said to Xu Jing: "It doesn't matter, I am extremely willing. If elder sister likes it, I can let you be the Dan Tong for your entire life, so why don't you do this, elder sister should tell me the details of Sun Boyan's pill refining.

Xu Jing nodded, and began to narrate the various details of when Sun Boyan was refining the pellet in great detail. Lin Yan listened attentively to the narration, and etched some useful information into her mind, in case she were to use it when the time comes.
