Elder Xu nodded. He was naturally happy to see Qin Fen, but there was a trace of solemnity in the depths of his eyes that could not be erased.
"I heard from Baizhen and Ru'er that you lost contact. I've been worried about you. Now that I see that you're safe and sound, I'm relieved," Xu Baizhen said as he stroked his beard.
"Master, I have something important to discuss with you." Qin Fen knew that Xu Baizhen was not a hypocritical person, so he did not beat around the bush.
"Oh? There's no harm in speaking your mind, "said Xu Baizhen.
Qin Fen was about to speak when he suddenly paused. He realized that not only was Elder Xu looking solemn, but Xu Baizhen and Xu Ru'er also seemed to have something on their minds.
"By the way, Master, is the Square Tower in trouble?" Qin Fen decided not to talk about his own matters. If the Square Tower was really in trouble, now was not the best time to cooperate with them.
"Sigh! You're also a member of the Square Tower, so there's no harm in telling you … Tomorrow is the elixir workshop convention that happens once every three years, and it will be held in Pill City. All the major elixir workshops in the Northern Sand Continent will send representatives to participate, and the major sects, families, and itinerant cultivators will also come to watch. "
When Qin Fen arrived, he saw that the streets and alleys of Pill City were filled with people. It turned out that the elixir workshop convention was going to be held. However, he did not understand why Elder Xu looked so worried when such a convention was a good thing for the elixir workshop.
Elder Xu continued, "Originally, the elixir workshop convention was a good thing for the Square Tower. They could introduce some new types of elixirs, increase the reputation of the elixir workshop, and increase the consumption of cultivators … However, this year, the Square Tower did not introduce any heavyweight elixirs. They are still old types, and this will cause the reputation of the elixir workshop to fall.
"Of course, this is not the main thing. According to the news I received, this year, the Treasure Elixir Tower has developed an elixir that can repair the consciousness. Once this elixir is released, the Square Tower's reputation as the number one elixir workshop in the Northern Sand Continent will be in jeopardy."
After Elder Xu finished speaking, Xu Baizhen and Xu Ru'er hung their heads dejectedly.
After knowing the situation, Qin Fen was elated. So it was just a small matter. Coincidentally, he was going to collaborate with the Square Tower to produce the Spirit Surge Elixir. Once the Spirit Surge Elixir was produced, what would the elixir that could repair the consciousness be? Moreover, Qin Feng had previously purchased several types of pills that could restore one's divine sense. If he really wanted to refine them, he could still refine them.
"Master, leave this matter to me. Just let me represent the Four Way Tower in the competition." Everyone in the academy was on the same side, so Qin Feng spoke his mind.
Elder Xu and the others were shocked and looked at Qin Feng expectantly. They had witnessed Qin Fen's alchemy standards, especially on the flying ship that was heading to the Fallen God Sea. Qin Fen had directly refined the Essence Transformation Pill and defeated a group of alchemists. This had truly shocked Xu Baizhen and Xu Ru 'er.
"Disciple Qin Feng, is what you said true? The Treasure Pill Pavilion is releasing pills that can repair one's spiritual sense. Could it be that you have a pill recipe for that as well? "Elder Xu asked.
"There are about seven or eight pill recipes for restoring Divine Sense, but I'm preparing to introduce a different kind of pill. As for the specific medicinal properties, let's not talk about it for now. We'll know when we see it at the conference tomorrow."
Naturally, Qin Feng was referring to the Spirit Surge Pill. It wasn't that he wanted to keep them in suspense, but he was afraid that the walls had ears. There were definitely spies in the four great pill workshops. If news of the Spirit Surge Pill were to spread now, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.
Initially, Elder Xu and the others trusted Qin Feng. However, when he said that there were seven or eight pill recipes for restoring Divine Sense, the corners of their mouths twitched.
"Brat, look at the situation now. You still have the mood to joke around with master?" Xu Ru 'er, who had suffered a setback earlier, began to take revenge.
Xu Baizhen sighed and said, "Sigh! Master, don't blame Junior Brother Qin Feng. He saw that you were troubled and wanted to tease you. "
Elder Xu suddenly understood. Clearly, he agreed with Xu Baizhen's words. Black lines appeared on Qin Feng's forehead. He wasn't joking.
"Master, since I dared to say those words, I naturally have a trump card. If you trust me, let me represent the Four Way Tower in the competition," Qin Feng said seriously.
The three of them looked at him blankly. For a moment, they couldn't tell whether he was speaking the truth or not. A moment later, Elder Xu let out a long sigh and said, "Alright! I'll go make the arrangements now. Tomorrow's Pill Store Conference is extremely important. Not only will I be participating, but the other elders of the Four Way Tower will also be participating. I'll let you know when the names are confirmed. "
Elder Xu left. Looking at his lonely back, it was clear that he didn't have high hopes for Qin Feng.
Xu Baizhen sat in the courtyard in a daze. No one knew what he was thinking. Qin Feng and Xu Ru 'er bickered for a while. Throughout the afternoon, Xu Ru' er thought of killing Qin Feng several hundred times.
With Elder Xu's efforts, Qin Feng's name was confirmed. This time, there were three representatives from the Four Way Tower. The other two were the two Grand Elders of the Four Way Tower. Qin Feng's name originally belonged to Elder Xu, but he knew that it was useless for him to participate in the competition. Thus, he gave it to Qin Feng to see if there would be any surprises.
Early in the morning, the four of them gathered in front of the Four Way Tower's main store. The entrance was already filled with people, forming two long lines. From this, it could be seen that today's Pill Store Conference was very important to the Four Way Tower.
"Greetings, Senior Xu!"
The disciples greeted Elder Xu respectfully. Elder Xu didn't put on any airs and nodded at the crowd in return. He brought Qin Feng to the front of the crowd, where two white-haired old men stood.
"Brother Xu Xunfei, you're here. Let's go," one of the old men said. This was the first time Qin Feng learned Elder Xu's full name.
Elder Xu wasn't in a hurry to leave. He smiled and said, "Let me introduce someone to you. This is my disciple, Qin Feng … Qin Feng, this is Xu Baidan. He can refine more than a hundred types of pills. This is Exalted Master Li. As long as he refines pills, they are all high-grade pills. "
The two old men were stunned, and their gazes fell on Qin Feng. They had long heard of Qin Feng, mainly because he possessed the fifth-ranked Earth Fire, the Purple Serene Flame. However, it was rumored that he gave the Purple Serene Flame to Xu Xunfei, which was why he was accepted as a disciple.
In the two old men's eyes, Qin Feng was nothing special. A trace of jealousy rose in their hearts. This kid was really lucky to be able to subdue a Heavenly Fire like the Purple Serene Flame.
"Brother Xu Xunfei, is this your new disciple? Not bad, not bad."
"Alright, since we know each other, let's set off."
The two old men exchanged pleasantries, but they didn't take Qin Feng seriously at all. Who were they? A junior like Qin Feng was nothing to them.
"Please wait a moment. There's something I need to make clear. I won't be representing the Four Way Tower in the competition. My disciple, Qin Feng, will be representing me," Xu Xunfei said.
