Under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
"A month ago, a Master Alchemist found my son and said that he had the talent to become a Master Alchemist, so he accepted him as his disciple … Later on, that Master Alchemist gave my son a prescription. According to the prescription, my son concocted a medicinal liquid called 'Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid', which can increase the cultivation speed of a Body Tempering Stage martial artist!"
Li Rou said slowly.
Increase the cultivation speed of a Body Tempering Stage martial artist?
Li Rou's words were like a clap of thunder, causing everyone except Seventh Elder Li Kun, including Grand Elder Li Huo, to be shocked.
"Li Rou, don't talk nonsense! In my opinion, you're deliberately mystifying things. What Master Alchemist, what medicinal liquid, it's all made up by you. You're obviously looking for an excuse to get your son off the hook! "
Seventh Elder Li Kun stood up agitatedly, glaring at Li Rou as he shouted sternly.
"Grand Elder, you're a Grade Nine Alchemist. This is the prescription my son wrote. Even though it doesn't state the proportions of the herbs, it's enough for you to know whether it's real or fake."
Li Rou ignored Li Kun, took out a prescription, and passed it to Li Huo, using facts to prove everything.
Li Huo unfolded the prescription and looked at it.
"Wonderful! Truly wonderful! Why didn't I think of this before? With these six herbs combined, as long as the proportions are right, it's possible to increase the cultivation speed of a Body Tempering Stage martial artist. "
"Moreover, the medicinal effects of these herbs are easy to absorb, no wonder … no wonder that little guy could change so much in a short month. Most importantly, these herbs are very common, any Elder has the ability to provide long-term use for their children. "
After Li Huo finished reading, his turbid eyes flashed with a trace of light as he exclaimed.
The Li family's upper echelons present could not believe Li Rou's words.
But Grand Elder Li Huo was the only Grade Nine Alchemist in the Li family, so no one doubted his words.
For a moment, they were all excited.
This kind of medicinal liquid was enough to change the fate of their children and the fate of the Li family.
"Patriarch!"
Li Huo looked at Li Nanfeng with a solemn expression.
Li Nanfeng nodded heavily.
He knew that this was an opportunity for the Li family.
"Ninth Elder, did you just say that Duan Lingtian can concoct this kind of medicinal liquid?"
Li Nanfeng looked at Li Rou.
"Yes."
Li Rou nodded.
For a moment, the Li family's main hall was filled with the sound of heavy breathing.
All of the Li family elders present had sons and daughters.
It was conceivable that if their children could obtain the medicinal liquid concocted by Duan Lingtian, their cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds.
What happened to Duan Lingtian was the best example.
It was every parent's wish to see their children become dragons and their daughters become phoenixes.
"Ninth Elder, since your son Duan Lingtian has obtained such a precious medicinal formula, then he should contribute it to the family … Elders, what do you say?"
Seventh Elder Li Kun felt that the atmosphere was off, and his expression darkened as he spoke.
"Yes, Seventh Elder is right. Such a precious medicinal formula should be shared with the family."
Sixth Elder Li Ping also supported.
"Hahahaha …"
Just as Li Rou's expression darkened and he was about to retort, a burst of wild laughter came from outside the main hall.
"Patriarch, Duan Lingtian requests an audience!"
Suddenly, the laughter stopped.
Duan Lingtian!
The eyes of all the Li family elders in the main hall lit up.
In the past, Duan Lingtian was only a disciple with a different surname in their eyes …
Now, in their eyes, Duan Lingtian was the hope that could help their children soar.
"Come in."
Li Nanfeng nodded in response.
"Sixth Elder, what did you just say? Did I hear wrong? You want me to share the medicinal formula? "
Duan Ling Tian walked in and directly walked in front of Sixth Elder Li Ping as he asked indifferently.
"That's right! Duan Lingtian, I know that you are a disciple with a different surname, but you have been eating and wearing the Li family's food all these years. Isn't it time to repay the Li family? "
Li Ping said confidently.
"How come I didn't know that I had been eating and wearing the Li family's food all these years? The money I used to eat and wear came from my mother's salary from working for the Li family. What does it have to do with the Li family? Even if I wasn't part of the Li family, my mother and I could have joined the Chen family or the Fang Family. Why couldn't we have received the same salary? "
Duan Lingtian laughed.
"Duan Lingtian, how dare you betray the family!"
Li Kun found an opportunity to pin the crime of betrayal on Duan Lingtian.
"Betray the family? Li Kun, I know you hate me to the bone for crippling your son Li Jie, but so what? I didn't break any of the family's rules … Now, could it be that you want to accuse me of betraying the family and torture me to avenge your son? "
Duan Ling Tian laughed in disdain and shed all pretenses of cordiality.
"You said you were going to join the Chen family or the Fang Family. Isn't that betraying the family?"
Li Kun was enraged by Duan Lingtian's words.
"Idiot! Everyone here can tell that I was just using a metaphor. Do you understand metaphors? Didn't your parents teach you what metaphors are? I just wanted to tell Sixth Elder that I don't owe the Li family anything. The only reason I'm standing here is because the Li family is my mother's family! "
Duan Lingtian spat at Li Kun's face, then looked at Li Ping.
"Sixth Elder, if you want me to concoct the medicinal liquid for your son in the future, I hope you can think about some things before you say them. You can think about some things before you do them … so as not to hurt the harmony between us. Don't you think this is reasonable?"
Threat!
Blatant. Blatant threat!
Li Ping's face darkened, but he obediently shut his mouth.
Duan Lingtian's threat hit his soft spot.
"Even if I wanted to hand the formula over to the family, I wouldn't dare. My teacher said that if anyone dared to take my formula, they would die without a doubt!"
Duan Ling Tian's gaze turned as he said in a powerful and resonant voice.
Duan Lingtian's words caused the Li family's upper echelons to suck in a breath of cold air.
They finally remembered that Ninth Elder Li Rou did mention that a pharmacist had accepted Duan Lingtian as a disciple and passed down the formula.
It was just that they put all their attention on the prescription and forgot about that alchemist.
"Little guy, what is the rank of your teacher?"
First Elder Li Huo asked.
"I don't know what rank he is, but I saw him concoct pills with my own eyes. He used his elemental energy to create pill fire. The color of the pill fire seemed to be gold …."
Duan Ling Tian frowned and pretended to recall as he spoke.
"What?!"
Li Huo's pupils constricted as he instantly stood up and exclaimed, "Grade Seven Alchemist!"
Rank seven pharmacist?
The Li family's upper echelons were all dumbstruck. Patriarch Li Nanfeng asked, "Grand Elder, are you sure?"
Li Huo grunted in a low voice. "All graded alchemists know that an alchemist capable of condensing a golden pill flame is surely a grade seven alchemist … Moreover, a grade seven alchemist is at least an expert at the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage or above!"
Origin Core Stage powerhouse!
The Li family's upper echelons were shocked once again.
An Origin Core Stage powerhouse was an existence above the Core Formation Stage. Their Li family's strongest Grand Elder was only at the sixth level of the Core Formation Stage.
At this moment, no one doubted Duan Lingtian's words. Even these people who had lived for most of their lives didn't know that a rank seven pharmacist's pill fire was golden.
"This little bastard really got lucky. Shit luck! "
Seventh Elder Li Kun's expression was as unsightly as it could be.
"Patriarch, Elders, I still have matters to attend to, so I'll be returning first. Hmm, Elders, if you need me to help you concoct the Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid, you can buy the medicinal materials and come find me …. Right, I almost forgot. Patriarch, I seem to still have a thousand silver with you, right? "
After taking the thousand silver from Li Nanfeng, Duan Lingtian swaggered out of the Li family's Audience Hall.
The Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid was a medicinal liquid that Duan Lingtian subtracted a medicinal material from the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid. Its effect was only half of the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid.
Duan Lingtian wasn't generous enough to share the best things with others.
"Patriarch, Grand Elder, my son should be about to wake up. I'll be returning first."
Seventh Elder Li Kun took a deep breath and left the Li family's Audience Hall with complicated feelings.
He knew that now, all the elders, including Sixth Elder Li Ping, who was on good terms with him, were begging Duan Ling Tian for the sake of their children's futures. It was impossible for him to make things difficult for Duan Ling Tian because of his crippled son.
"I'll also be leaving first."
Li Rou hurriedly followed. She was worried that Li Kun would act out of desperation and directly make a move on her son.
In the Li family's Audience Hall, the remaining Li family Elders didn't leave.
Under the leadership of Patriarch Li Nanfeng, another family meeting began.
This family meeting mainly revolved around Duan Lingtian's medicinal formula.
In the end, in order to keep it a secret, it was unanimously decided that only the children of those present would be allowed to use the medicinal liquid.
"Patriarch!"
Fifth Elder Li Ting looked at Li Nanfeng with a grave expression.
"Today, we didn't punish Duan Lingtian, so Seventh Elder must be resentful. If he spreads the news of the Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid, even if the Chen and Fang Family fear the Level Seven Alchemist behind Duan Lingtian, they will definitely join forces to coerce the Li family to get a share of the profits."
"Fifth Elder is right. I know Seventh Elder very well. Even if Duan Lingtian has the protection of a Level Seven Alchemist, he won't let it go so easily."
Sixth Elder Li Ping also said fearfully.
After he finished speaking, he noticed that Li Ting was looking at him strangely. He couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
"This matter also concerns my son's future."
He had a good relationship with Seventh Elder, but now that his son's future was at stake, he had to make a choice.
