There were a total of three people at the gate of this courtyard. After seeing He Yiming, one of the quick-witted people bowed deeply to him and then ran away. Looking at his fiery attitude and speed, one could already tell what he was feeling.
The other two disciples, including the big man with the full beard, were also very respectful.
Although they were not disciples of the Hengshan faction, nor disciples of the main faction of the Heavenly Lake, but when facing an expert like He Yiming, their attitude was not inferior to the disciples of the Northwest faction.
At this moment, He Yiming realized the benefits of being famous. After showing his face in front of tens of thousands of people, his reputation was simply unparalleled for a while.
Beside him, Yu Jinglei, who was also a disciple of One-Line Heaven, was completely reduced to a guest in the eyes of these people.
After respectfully welcoming the two into the inner gate room, the two stood at the side with their hands behind their backs.
He Yiming shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless gesture. Yu Jinglei let out a long sigh. He quickly adjusted his state of mind and joked, "The new generation surpasses the old. There are heroes in every generation. Elder He, you are the hero of this generation. "
He Yiming shook his head slightly and said sincerely, "I am not a hero. I am just a lucky person."
There was no falsehood in his words. If it wasn't for the fortuitous encounter at the bottom of the lake in the past, which allowed him to have no more obstacles on the path of cultivation, He Yiming wouldn't be able to reach such heights today.
A burst of hearty laughter came from inside.
"Brother He is too humble. If even you can't be called the hero of this generation, then looking at the entire world, who else can be worthy of this title?"
When this voice sounded, it was still a few dozen feet away. Halfway through, it was already in front of them.
The two people in the inner gate room immediately knelt down and said loudly, "Greetings to Grandmaster."
Zhang Zhongchi only nodded slightly. He didn't even ask them to get up.
"Brother He, Brother Yu, since the two of you have graced us with your presence, you should be able to bring us good news."
Yu Jinglei chuckled, "Not all of it is good news." He pointed at He Yiming and said, "Elder He has an additional request, but I don't know if Brother Zhang will agree to it."
Zhang Zhongyun raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Since it's Brother He's idea, then as long as it's within this Zhang's power, I will definitely not disappoint you."
Yu Jinglei sighed in his heart. He Yiming was right after all. Even though this was the first time he had met Zhang Zhongcheng, it was clear that He Yiming was far more important than him in Zhang Zhongcheng's heart.
However, this was not strange. With Yu Jinglei's current age and cultivation, the possibility of him improving in martial arts was very small. But He Yiming was different. He was like a rising red sun, far from reaching the limit he could reach.
Anyone with the slightest bit of intelligence would know which of these two people to befriend first.
"Brother He, Brother Yu, let's talk inside." Zhang Zhongyun invited them.
He Yiming looked outside the door meaningfully. A strange smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Okay."
Yu Jinglei and Zhang Zhongyun were people like that. When they saw the smile on his face, they knew that he must have discovered something. However, no matter how they listened and sensed, they still found nothing.
Even though they were suspicious, the two of them still smiled and accompanied He Yiming out of the inner door.
As soon as they stepped out of the room, their hearts trembled. They immediately understood the meaning of He Yiming's smile.
Not far ahead, Jin Zhanzheng was standing alone. His body was as straight as a javelin, and his eyes were bright. The moment he saw He Yiming come out, a huge and undisguised fighting spirit burst out from his body.
Of course, although Jin Zhanzheng seemed to be eager to fight He Yiming, he would never choose to do so at this time.
The reason he made this gesture was to express his attitude.
Yu Jinglei and Zhang Zhongchi both sighed inside at the same time. The two of them actually did not even know when Jin Zhangzhan had snuck over, yet He Yiming was able to discover him so easily. From this, it could be seen just how great the gap between the four of them was.
Jin Zhanzheng was speaking frankly to Xiong Wuji on the high platform. Even after seeing him defeat two Three Flower Realm masters, he was not afraid at all. He was even eager to fight.
On the other hand, He Yiming did not hesitate to attack. He crushed Xiong Wuji's confidence with a thunderous momentum and completely toyed with him in the palm of his hand.
In the entire Heaven Lake, the two of them were probably the only ones below the Venerable One level who had such strength.
"Junior Brother Jin, they're guests from afar. Don't go too far. If you can't get that thing, you can explain it to Junior Sister Qiu yourself. "Zhang Zhongyun's face darkened as he said angrily.
Jin Zhanzheng's powerful momentum faded away in an instant. He laughed and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, you've misunderstood. I'm delighted to hear that the two great elders of Mount Heng are here. I'm just greeting them. I don't think you'll mind, right?"
He Yiming and Yu Jinglei could not help but laugh, but they were quite curious about the Junior Sister Qiu that Zhang Zhongyun mentioned.
They did not know who she was to make Jin Zhanzheng so afraid. Nevertheless, they could tell that the person who wanted to obtain the Autagen-retaining Pill seemed to be Junior Sister Qiu.
The four of them walked together to the inner courtyard. Along the way, all the disciples of the Divine Wind Palace who saw them bowed respectfully.
With their cultivation bases, the four of them could naturally tell from the disciples' actions that they were all staring at He Yiming and Jin Zhanzheng with deep curiosity.
He Yiming and the others naturally knew what they were thinking under their almost naked gazes.
Jin Zhanzheng had been known as the No. 1 person below the Venerable One in the Divine Wind Palace for several years. He Yiming's performance in driving Xiong Wuji away in the big square confirmed his title as the No. 1 person below the Venerable One in Heaven Lake.
The two champions represented different forces. Therefore, when they saw the two of them walking together, basically everyone would have the same curiosity.
Between the 2 of them, which one was the real No. 1 person below the Venerable One?
Under Zhang Zhongyun's personal guidance, they came to the most spacious attic in the courtyard.
This attic was ingeniously built on the side of the cliff, which was exposed by the trees on the side of the mountain. There was a spacious front pavilion, winding corridors, colorful carvings, and quaint utensils.
He Yiming and Yu Jinglei looked around the attic and immediately realized that the decorations here were obviously much better than the courtyard of the Hengshan branch.
However, when they thought about the difference in status and the forces they represented, they seemed to be at peace.
"Brother He, do you have any additional requests?"
After arriving here, Zhang Zhongchi immediately asked in a serious tone.
He also understood that his determined attitude might make the other party demand an exorbitant price. However, he had already promised 50 Primordial Golden Elixirs. Even if he had to give up some other things, he would not care too much.
Some things were priceless in the eyes of the Hengshan branch, but they were only slightly more valuable in the Grand Divine Wind Palace, which was the best in Great Shen.
He Yiming's gaze focused, and he also said seriously, "Brother Zhang, you want the formula of the Face Retaining Pill, so you're planning to refine it, right?"
Zhang Zhongyun and Jin Zhanzheng cursed in their hearts at the same time, 'Nonsense.' However, Zhang Zhongyun's face was still full of smiles. "That's right, Brother He, you're right. We're indeed planning to refine the Face Retaining Pill."
He Yiming's eyes lit up. He asked, "If your sect successfully refines the Face Retaining Pill, how many of you will need it?"
Zhang Zhongyun was slightly startled. He pondered for a moment and said, "Two of you."
He Yiming laughed and said, "Brother Zhang, as far as I know, if we can gather all the materials and refine the pill successfully, there will be at least 6 Face Retaining Pills in a cauldron. It'll be fine if the refinement fails, but if it's successful, He hopes to get half of it. "
Zhang Zhongyun instantly furrowed his eyebrows. Exchanging 50 Innate Golden Pills for the formula of the Face Retaining Pill was already a huge risk for him. It would not be a big deal if the refinement was successful, but if it failed, even he would find it difficult to explain.
Now that He Yiming asked for half of the pills, he was indeed in a difficult position.
Zhang Zhongyun became more hesitant when he glanced at Ou Yangming's young face.
He was almost certain that the young fellow would surely advance into a Venerable One in the future or even a more powerful boundary. If he wanted to deceive Ou Yangming with false words, he would not be able to bear the final consequences.
After pondering for some time, Zhang Zhongyun said, "Brother He, your request has exceeded the scope of what I can promise, so I can only promise you this. If you can really refine the pills and there are more than 6 of them, I can make the decision to give you 2 of them."
"2 of them …" He Yiming pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, 2 of them it is."
Only then did Zhang Zhongyun let out a long sigh of relief, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes. The Face Retaining Pill was not very useful to the people from Mount Hengshan, but it was extremely useful to the disciples of the Spirit Wind Palace at the moment.
Jin Zhanzheng raised his eyebrows and suddenly asked, "Brother He, are you done talking about your matter?"
He Yiming was slightly stunned. "Yes, I'm done."
Jin Zhanzheng's eyes lit up. "Great. Brother He, I have a request, and I hope that you'll agree to it."
Yu Jinglei and Zhang Zhonghun's faces showed a bitter smile at the same time. Although they had a hunch that they couldn't avoid this, Jin Zhanzheng's impatience was still beyond their expectations.
He Yiming was naturally well aware. He took a deep breath and was about to speak when his face suddenly changed. He shook his wrist and flicked his finger.
Almost at the same time, Jin Zhanzheng made the same move.
After the two of them flicked their fingers, two sharp sounds of breaking through the air suddenly rang out, and the sound of metal clashing could be heard in the air. The two small stones had already been flicked into pieces by them.
With a flash, He Yiming and Jin Zhanzheng had already left the room as though they were flying.
Yu Jinglei and Zhang Zhongyun were slightly slower. When they chased after them, they were already gone. The two of them looked at each other. They really could not think of anyone who dared to sneak attack others on the main peak of the Heavenly Pool.
