A month later…
In the blink of an eye, Kai Er and the others had spent more than a month in the Free and Unfettered Sect. During this time, they had already been promoted to Inner Hall disciples because the basic medicinal knowledge was not difficult for them at all.
Rana was needless to say, but Kai Er was even simpler. The knowledge that Qi Xun had imparted to him included this. Not to mention the basics, Nangong Hongxia could not compare to him in terms of understanding of alchemy.
In less than a month, they had been promoted from the Outer Hall to the Inner Hall. This was something that had never happened since the establishment of the Pill Hall. Naturally, they had become the " genius disciples " of the Pill Hall. Even Nangong Hongxia had specially looked for them to take them in as disciples. Naturally, they would not agree.
Later on, Nangong Hongxia's master, Feng Ruoxi, who was one of the few great elders of the Carefree Sect and the former Pill Hall's elder, came forward to take them in as disciples. Naturally, they rejected her.
Kai Er didn't need to say anything. His only master was Qi Xun, and he was his teacher. To boast, as the inheritor of the 'truth', others weren't qualified to be his master. Doing so would only lower Qi Xun's status.
As for Rana, there was no need to say anything. Feng Ruoxi was a Golden Immortal expert, and she was a Conferred Saint realm expert of the same level. It was impossible for her to acknowledge someone of the same level as her as her teacher. Furthermore, the other party was just a mere human, while she was a noble descendant of a True Dragon.
This action naturally shocked the entire Carefree Sect. No one could understand or understand the reason for their rejection. Who was Feng Ruoxi? She was a Golden Immortal mighty figure, one of the few supreme experts of the Carefree Sect. She was also one of the Pill Dao Saint Masters who was famous in the entire Immortal Arrival Continent.
This was an opportunity that no one would dare to dream of, but Kyle and the others actually rejected it without hesitation. This made everyone want to pry open their heads and see what was inside.
However, Feng Ruoxi did not have much of a reaction at that time. She only showed a surprised expression and sighed."Unfortunately…since that's the case, it seems that we're not fated…forget it…forget it…"
With that, he left.
There was no need to elaborate on this. Now that they were Inner Hall disciples, they had more freedom than Outer Hall disciples. As long as they completed a certain quota, they could even leave the sect at will.
This " target " was the number of pills refined. All Inner Hall disciples had to refine a certain amount of pills every day. After all, the benefits of the Carefree Sect were so high that it was inevitable that the disciples of the Pill Hall would have to work hard. There was no other way.
They basically did not spend much time and effort to finish a day of cultivation. The rest of the time they spent in the Xiaoyao Sect's library hall was mainly to find clues about the materials for his breakthrough.
On this day, they had finished refining pills for a day early and arrived at the Book Collection Hall as usual.
"Good morning, Elder Yan!" Upon entering, he greeted the overseer of the library, Elder Yan.
"Hehehe…you guys are here? It's still so early?" Elder Yan smiled as usual.
These days, they had been coming here every day. They were already familiar with the person in charge here, which was Elder Yan. They would greet him like this every day.
Elder Yan looked like an amiable old man in his sixties or seventies. However, he was not to be underestimated. The old man who cleaned the Pill Hall every day was a Golden Immortal, an almighty expert on the same level as Feng Ruoxi.
However, strictly speaking, he was not a member of the Carefree Sect. He had stayed in the Carefree Sect because the former sect master had saved his life. He had been in the Pill Hall for more than a hundred years. However, no disciples knew his name. They only knew that his surname was Yan. He never mentioned his own name, and the disciples in the sect always called him Elder Yan.
" Yes, you're busy. We're going to read…" He nodded and smiled back.
" Hehehe…Go on, go on…" Elder Yan laughed as he continued sweeping the dustless ground.
He didn't say much about this, as he was already used to it. He walked into the rows of tall bookshelves with Rana.
He picked up a book and asked Rana,""Aya…you know my situation…the materials I need are more difficult than the average person. Can you remember anything?”
The reason why he said this was because he had already told Rana all his 'secrets' a long time ago. He did not feel that there was anything to hide from her, and Qi Xun did not ask him to keep it a secret from others.
When he said this, Rana's usually expressionless face showed a look of shock, although it was very short.
After all, even Rana, who was a Conferred Saint, had never come into contact with what he had said. It had refreshed her understanding of the world several times.
However, from the memory of him casually throwing out the divine artifact, Rana had already guessed it, so she decided to hide it first. Although she couldn't do anything to him due to the contract, the reason why she was honest with Kyle was because of his attitude towards her. Perhaps it was also due to the contract, so when he asked her, she subconsciously said it. However, for some reason, she didn't really say it clearly about the fact that she was a "substitute". She didn't know why her heart was always sour and uncomfortable.
She had also thought about whether she had fallen in love with this human, but she had always wanted to avoid this question. She should have hated this human who dared to sign a contract with her, but she could not hate him. She knew very well that this was not because of the contract, but because this man was really too good to her. He had never treated her like a slave and even had the intention of obeying him, even if she knew that she was just a substitute for the "Aya" he mentioned. She couldn't hate him at all. She was even a little jealous of that woman called " Aya." Why was she able to make a man so infatuated with her that he couldn't forget her even after two lifetimes?
Rana thought for a while and said,"…Hmm…Not really. Other than some basics…I don't know about the other things you mentioned either…Unless…"
When he heard her last two words, he was slightly happy. He put down the book and turned his head."Unless what?"
After a moment of hesitation, Rana said,"…Unless we ask the dragons for help. But…I think their first reaction when they see you…will be to kill you…After all, you and I…"
" Err…Alright…Looks like I can only rely on myself…" When he heard what she said, the corners of his mouth twitched. He felt a little helpless, and the hope that had risen was also shattered.
Following that, as usual, the two of them spent the entire day in the sea of books until nightfall.
He closed a thick book again."There are still no clues…"
This made him a little depressed. However, other than this, he had also searched the ring palace before. However, no matter how much he searched, he could not find any materials that could help him break through. However, it was normal. After all, what kind of existence was Qi Xun? He naturally would not collect such "low-level" things. He probably would not have thought that he would have a successor. Moreover, things had happened so suddenly, so he did not prepare these things at all.
"It's useless. We should go outside and take a look. It's useless to stay here.”Rana shook her head slightly when she saw him like this.
"That's true…I came here for the books. Since there aren't any, it's useless to continue wasting time here…" He nodded in agreement.
After a pause, he continued," But…we can't just leave like this. It'll be very troublesome. Lin Ye will probably be implicated."”
"Then what?"
"Hmm…How about this? We just need to train for a year or two. By then, we'll have plenty of time…"
Although this was a stupid idea, based on the current situation, this was the only way. As for the others, he was too lazy to consider them.
As a result, they basically spent the next month in the pill room. This abnormal behavior made Nangong Hongxia visit them a few times. After confirming that they were fine, she did not care anymore.
A month later…
"This…is the result of a month of work!？”Nangong Hongxia looked at the Universe Bag in her hand in shock.
Because, after her divine sense entered, the scene she saw simply shocked her. It wasn't that the things inside were of high grade, but that there were too many. There were mountains of Spirit Gathering Pills and other medicinal pills inside.
It was really a mountain of food, and there was no exaggeration in it. That was why Nangong Hongxia was so shocked. She couldn't even imagine how a person could do this in a month. Anyway, it was impossible for her.
"Um…Is it a lot? It's just a few years 'worth…It's not much, right?”Seeing Nangong Hongxia's reaction when she took the Qiankun Bag, Kai Er was a little confused.
“…”
Nangong Hongxia was speechless. She really wanted to shout," Please be human!
"Elder? We're going out to gain experience now. It's only a few years…You don't have any objections, right?”Seeing that Nangong Hongxia didn't respond, he asked.
"Uh…Go, go…Up to you!”Nangong Hongxia put away her Qiankun Bag and lowered her head. She covered her face with one hand and waved at them with the other.
"Thank you, Elder!" He cupped his fists and pulled Rana out of the pill room.
However, as soon as he left the pill room, he saw Lin Ye rushing over.
Lin Ye saw them pause for a moment, then quickly stepped forward and said,""You guys are finally out! Young Brother, what are you doing? Why did he stay in the pill room for the entire month?”
"What else can I do in the pill room? Of course, it was to refine pills! "But…we have to say goodbye to you…" He first smiled and spread his hands, then his expression became solemn.
"Why? Did something happen?" Lin Ye was confused.
"We didn't. It's just that in the next few years, we will be training outside…Even if you didn't come, we would still have gone to say goodbye to you.”
"This…Alright…After all, my cultivation level is still shallow and can't compare to yours. After my cultivation level increases, I'll look for you.”
"I will! Brother Lin, you too, take care…"
As he spoke, he went forward and hugged Lin Ye.
"Take care!" He patted Lin Ye's back.
"Take care!" Lin Ye also patted him.
The two of them separated. He held Rana's hand and walked out of the hall. Lin Ye watched their backs until they disappeared around the corner of the corridor…
