However, after giving it some thought, Duan Lingtian felt relieved.
This was because he remembered Duan Ling Tian's words.
When he first met Situ Ming, Yang Chong, and Yu Zhong Jing, Yu Zhong Jing had said, "I'm not sure if you can refine a cauldron.
Even the most powerful prominent Celestial Fire that Duan Lingtian knew would take about five hours to heat the cauldron.
'No wonder the sect leader asked me if I'll take more than six hours to heat the cauldron … It seems like he has taken Master Yu's words to heart.
Moreover, he must have some understanding of prominent Celestial Alchemists. That's why he wants to confirm the time I'll take to heat the cauldron. '
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
After a while, Duan Lingtian regained his senses. When he saw Tie Tai He's expectant gaze, he could not help but ask, "What? Elder Tie, do you want to witness it as well? "
"Is it convenient?"
Upon seeing Duan Lingtian had seen through his thoughts, Tie Tai He felt slightly uncomfortable.
"It's not inconvenient at all … It's only half an hour."
Duan Lingtian smiled faintly. Then, he raised his hand and took out his prominent Celestial Pill Cauldron. He did not heat the cauldron immediately. Instead, he used an invisible force to guide it to hover in front of Tie Tai He.
"Master Duan, what are you doing?"
Upon seeing this, Tie Tai He was stunned. He did not know what Duan Lingtian was trying to do.
"Elder Tie, can you confirm if I've heated the cauldron in advance?"
Duan Lingtian asked bluntly.
He wanted Tie Tai He to confirm that he had not cheated.
"Master Duan, there's no need for that."
Tie Tai He shook his head. "You didn't know I was going to watch you heat the cauldron. Naturally, you didn't prepare it beforehand."
"You mean … When I first met Master Situ and the others, I knew I'd have to refine pills in front of them so I cheated by heating the cauldron in advance?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Tie Tai He meaningfully.
"That's not what I meant …"
Tie Tai He did not know how to respond to Duan Lingtian's gaze.
"Elder Iron, you should confirm it."
Duan Lingtian said, "That way, you can rest assured."
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Tie Tai He no longer hesitated. He reached out and grabbed the high-grade immortal artifact pill cauldron suspended in the void in front of him. Apart from using his hand to feel the temperature of the pill cauldron, he also extended his Divine Sense.
Finally, he confirmed that this pill cauldron was ice-cold and had not been warmed up beforehand.
"It's done."
After confirming, Tie Tai He released the pill cauldron and returned it to Duan Lingtian.
"Apothecary Duan, I didn't mean to doubt you when I said those words. I just found it a little unbelievable …"
After returning the pill cauldron, Tie Tai He glanced at Duan Lingtian with some embarrassment. From his words, it was as if he was afraid that Duan Lingtian would become angry, so he tried his best to explain.
"I can understand."
Duan Lingtian interrupted Tie Taihe. Then, he stopped talking and summoned his high-grade Celestial Fire to heat the cauldron.
Half an hour later, he stopped heating the cauldron and began to refine pills.
When Duan Lingtian finished refining the prominent Celestial Pill cauldron, Tie Tai He was certain Duan Lingtian only needed half an hour to heat the pill cauldron.
"Apothecary Duan, I'm sorry … I didn't mean to doubt you."
Tie Tai He took the initiative to apologize to Duan Lingtian when he saw the truth.
Duan Lingtian who had just put away the pill cauldron looked at Tie Tai He deeply before the corners of his lips curled up slightly. "Elder Tie, based on my understanding of you, with your character, you won't say anything even if you doubt me.
Can you tell me … Why do you want to see me heat the cauldron? "
When Duan Lingtian reached the end of his sentence, he looked at Tie Tai He with a penetrating gaze.
"Apothecary Duan, I …"
Tie Tai He's expression froze when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. It took him a while before he calmed down. However, he still felt awkward as though he had something to hide.
"Guardian Tie, even if you don't say anything, I know the Old Ancestor asked you to test me."
Duan Lingtian said bluntly.
"You … You know?"
Tie Tai He looked at Duan Lingtian in disbelief when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. He looked at Duan Lingtian as though he was looking at a monster.
He was curious.
How did Duan Lingtian know the Old Ancestor asked Tie Tai He to test him?
"It seems like I'm right."
When Tie Tai He had an expression of shock and disbelief on his face, a smile appeared on Duan Ling Tian's solemn face as though he had succeeded in his scheme.
"You … You tricked me?!"
At this moment, Tie Tai He could tell Duan Lingtian was tricking him. He was speechless for a moment before a bitter smile appeared on his face.
He knew that he had already sold out the one behind him.
"Master Duan, please don't betray me when you see the Old Ancestor in the future. Otherwise, the Old Ancestor won't let me go."
Tie Tai He smiled wryly before he hurriedly greeted Duan Ling Tian again.
He did not forget to defend the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. "Master Duan, I'm sure you can understand the Old Ancestor's actions. Although the sect leader vouched for you, the Old Ancestor has no choice but to be cautious when it comes to the sect's King Grade Celestial Weapon."
"I understand."
Duan Lingtian nodded. Indeed, he could understand the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect's actions. If he was in the Old Ancestor's shoes, he would have done the same. "I don't mind … Elder Tie, let's continue our journey."
"Alright."
Tie Tai He sighed in relief when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. Then, he led Duan Lingtian away from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect's estate and made his way to the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
"Elder Iron."
Along the way, Duan Lingtian seemed to have recalled something. He looked at Tie Tai He and asked, "Guardian Tie, will there be Celestial Alchemists from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect participating in the Alchemy Conference next year?"
"Speaking of which, I still don't know which province the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect is in, and I wonder if the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect is participating in the Alchemy Conference."
Duan Lingtian suddenly thought of this question.
As far as he knew:
The Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect was not too far away from the Wasteland.
Otherwise, how could Zhou Shu Qiu from the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect be friends with Murong Bing, a disciple of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect?
"The Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect is located in the General Region. The General Region participates in every Alchemy Conference. Apart from the General Region, the Barren Region, and the Wasteland, there's also the Cross Region, the Light Region, and the Shadow Region.
Tie Tai He replied to Duan Lingtian's question, "If everything goes as planned, the Celestial Alchemists from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect will definitely participate in the Alchemy Conference next year."
Tie Tai He looked at Duan Lingtian and asked, "Master Duan, why are you suddenly asking about the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect? Are you related to the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect in some way? "
"Yes, we're related."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"I wonder if she'll participate in the Alchemy Conference."
A beautiful figure involuntarily appeared in Duan Ling Tian's mind.
It was none other than Murong Bing, a disciple of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect whom he had slept with in a Little World left behind by a Celestial King from the Blissful Sect when he had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven.
Tie Tai He was a Seven Star Celestial Duke so it did not take long for him to bring Duan Lingtian to the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
Due to their speed, they did not encounter any obstacles along the way.
Naturally, even if there were obstacles, with Tie Tai He's strength, he could easily destroy them with a wave of his hand. …
In the Imperial Palace of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
In the thirteenth prince's residence.
"Brother Duan … Master Duan."
Long Fei Yun, the Thirteenth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, could not help but feel excited when he saw Duan Lingtian again.
However, due to Duan Lingtian's current status, Long Fei Yun no longer treated Duan Lingtian as casually as before.
Duan Lingtian could sense Long Fei Yun's change in attitude.
Duan Lingtian sighed inwardly and did not say anything since he knew it would be pointless. In Long Fei Yun's eyes, he was the high and mighty Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
Duan Lingtian's words were enough to turn the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom upside down.
Long Fei Yun's attitude toward Duan Lingtian was similar to when he was facing the mysterious Brother Pei.
"Thirteenth prince, have you seen Brother Pei again?"
This was the main reason Duan Ling Tian had returned this time. Due to this reason, he did not beat around the bush.
"No."
Long Fei Yun shook his head and asked, "Master Duan, did you come back to look for Brother Pei? Ever since I met Big Brother Pei with you, I haven't seen him again. The servants I sent to clean his mansion haven't seen him either. "
"It seems that Big Brother Pei has indeed been delayed by something and hasn't returned yet."
Although Duan Lingtian was mentally prepared, he could not help but sigh inwardly.
"Thirteenth prince, I heard you're now the Crown Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Long Fei Yun with narrowed eyes and said bluntly, "If you want to be the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, I can help you."
The Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was not a high-rank Celestial Kingdom under the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
However, with Duan Lingtian's current status, it was easy for him to make Long Fei Yun, a descendant of the Imperial family, the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
The Martial Dragon Celestial Sect behind the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom would definitely respect Duan Lingtian, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
"There's no need for that."
Long Fei Yun shook his head. "My father has told me that he'll pass the throne to me in ten years."
"That's great. I don't want to inherit the throne so soon anyway."
Long Fei Yun smiled. "Thank you, Master Duan. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have become the Crown Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom."
In Long Fei Yun's opinion, Duan Lingtian had changed.
His fate had been changed by the person in front of him.
