Zhou Yang thought about it and sat beside Xiong Ziyi. After a long silence, Xiong Ziyi finally spoke.
"Thanks!"
Xiong Ziyi didn't look apologetic at all. She didn't even look at Zhou Yang.
However, Zhou Yang knew that Xiong Ziyi was sincere. After all, everyone only had one life. No one wanted to die.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Yang asked in a low voice.
"I'm not the only one here. Many others are here as well," Xiong Ziyi said as she looked around.
"Many people?"
Zhou Yang frowned and looked around. Sure enough, he found some familiar faces, including Ren Wuxing and Li Moling.
"Not only the two of them, but also Zhou Shaoyu. The others should still be on their way."
"Zhou Shaoyu is here too. Where is he?" Zhou Yang was a little puzzled. He didn't see Zhou Shaoyu.
"Don't you know that there is a kind of pill in this world called the Transfiguration Pill? I saw him on the way here, but when we arrived at the inn, he disappeared. He must have used the Transfiguration Pill to hide here," Xiong Ziyi said firmly.
Zhou Yang nodded. The Appearance Changing Pill was a type of first-grade elixir. It was relatively easy to refine, but because of the materials, it was rarely available on the market. However, with Zhou Shaoyu's status, it was certainly not a problem for him.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Yang asked with a smile.
"We're here for the same reason you're here. Is there a need to ask?" Xiong Ziyi glanced at Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang smiled and did not speak. His purpose for coming here was naturally to kill Poison King Zhao Si, and Xiong Ziyi's hatred for the Bloodthirst Group must be the same. However, he did not understand what news made Zhou Shaoyu, Ren Wuxing, and the others come. Could it be that Zhao Si had informed them before coming …
"You really don't know?" Xiong Ziyi looked at Zhou Yang's expression in surprise.
"What should I know? I only know that I'm here to buy ingredients for alchemy."
"So you're still planning to concoct pills." Xiong Ziyi shook her head as if she wasn't optimistic. She then said in a low voice, "We received news at the same time in Border City that the Poison King, Zhao Si, will arrive at Herb Town in ten days."
"I received the news at the same time … No wonder." Zhou Yang nodded. However, he had a feeling that even if the news was true, it could be a conspiracy.
"Thanks a lot."
Zhou Yang got up and walked to the counter.
"Shopkeeper, I want two rooms."
"Two rooms. My apologies, young master. There are too many people today. We only have one room left." The innkeeper smiled.
"One room … give it to me." Xiong Ziyi immediately stood up and shouted.
"This …" The shopkeeper was put in a difficult position.
"Then give it to him. I'll go take a look elsewhere," Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Sir, there definitely won't be any empty rooms for you in town today, because just now, Old Master Xu has booked all the inns and is preparing to welcome the guests to celebrate his 60th birthday. I think you should stay in the same room as that lady. The rooms are big anyway, and you are all cultivators. There is nothing inconvenient about it," the innkeeper said kindly.
"Sixtieth birthday …"
Zhou Yang frowned. At this moment, Xiong Ziyi stood up and said, "He's paying."
After that, Xiong Ziyi got up and walked upstairs.

Zhou Yang smiled and didn't say anything. After paying the money, he went upstairs to his room.
Inside the room, Xiong Ziyi was holding a cloak. She carefully folded it and placed it on the bed.
"This cloak is very good," Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Of course … This is a cloak left behind by a real man." A hint of gentleness flashed in Xiong Ziyi's eyes.
"A real man? Have you fallen in love with him? "
Xiong Ziyi raised her head and looked at Zhou Yang. "You're right. I've fallen in love with him. I've even said that I'll marry whoever kills Zhao Kui. Zhao Kui was killed by that man."
"Are you talking about Liu Xing?" Zhou Yang sat down and asked with interest.
"Yes, he is Liu Xing. In my opinion, even the rising stars of Jiangnan County can't compare to Liu Xing. He is a real genius and a real man."
"You haven't seen him. How do you know he is a real man …" Zhou Yang shook his head.
Xiong Ziyi immediately got up and said with an unhappy expression, "Although I haven't seen his true face, that night, I vaguely saw the flames on Eagle Ridge. After that, he was seriously injured and rushed out of the devil's den with a group of girls who were harmed by Zhao Kui. He is the hero of the world."
"Is that so? He saved you, but in my opinion, the person who really helped you escape is Miss Xiaolian, who was buried by Liu Xing outside the city. She used her life to share the poison in your body."
"Xiaolian … Yes, in the devil's den, I did feel that someone shared my pain, but … but how did you know?" Xiong Ziyi asked in surprise.
"I met a girl who was saved by Liu Xing on the way here. She told me." Zhou Yang closed his eyes after he said that.
"So that's how it is."
Xiong Ziyi was stunned. She never knew that her chastity was exchanged for a girl's life …
"Dear customer, my family's Master Xu asked me to bring a message to you. In ten days, he will invite everyone to a banquet at Xu Fu. Anyone who attends will be rewarded."
The voice coming from outside the room made Zhou Yang open his eyes.
"Ten days … Another ten days. Could it be that this has something to do with the Poison King, Li Si?"
Xiao He, who was thinking of going to the gold bank to exchange for gold notes, came back.
Before he arrived at the inn, he asked Xiao He to exchange the two million gold notes for four notes worth 500,000.
"Young Master, I've already given the 500,000 down payment to Manager Hao."
Zhou Yang nodded, then asked, "Is there any news from outside?"
"Yes, Uncle Xu is going to hold a birthday banquet. It's said that he wants to invite everyone in town."
"I see."
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yang took out the elixir recipe that Sima Yan had given him and the ingredients that Lady Jiu had given him.
In order to become a beginner alchemist, one must first refine the Qi Recovery Pill and the Healing Pill, the two simplest ungraded elixirs.
There were fifty portions of each of the two ingredients, which was enough for him to refine for ten days.
In the afternoon, he went to the market square to buy a small, ordinary alchemy furnace. Although the quality of this alchemy furnace was poor, it was small enough to be stored in a storage gourd. Also, it was enough to refine ordinary Qi Recovery Pills.
Night came quietly. Xiong Ziyi had already left through the window, leaving only Zhou Yang and Xiao He in the room.
After locking the door tightly, Zhou Yang opened the alchemy furnace and began to refine the Qi Recovery Pills according to the method on the elixir recipe.
The refining of ordinary elixirs was divided into five steps.
Refining the ingredients, fusing the ingredients, refining the elixir, accumulating the elixir, and forming the elixir.
In these five steps, refining the ingredients and refining the elixir tested the ability to control the fire, especially the refining of the elixir. One careless mistake and the elixir would be destroyed.
Fusing the ingredients and accumulating the elixir was a test of one's mental strength and vital energy. The stronger one's mental strength was, the less accidents would happen when fusing the ingredients.
As for the final elixir, it was just a process for ordinary Qi Recovery Pills. There was nothing special about it.
"The first step, refining the ingredients!"
