The Old Man Of Alchemy glared at Gu and immediately saw the hostility in his eyes. Gu, who did as he pleased, was like a stubborn child. He glared at Old Man Of Alchemy, insisting that Old Man Of Alchemy give him an answer.
The Old Man Of Alchemy was stunned. This scene suddenly became very familiar, as if he had experienced it before.
For a moment, the Old Man Of Alchemy didn't know how to answer.
Gu glared at him fiercely, but he didn't hurt the Celestial Fire Qian Cauldron anymore. He pulled the handle of the cauldron and very straightforwardly opened it. For a moment, a strange medicinal fragrance spread out. Everyone nervously gathered around to take a look. They had already wasted three Dragon Pill Recovery Pills. If they wasted another one, wouldn't that be too depressing?
They saw two Medicinal Pills lying quietly in the spacious cauldron. They had a dark color and were round and full.
"Two." Gu heaved a sigh of relief.
This time, everyone's hearts, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. They couldn't imagine how disappointed they would be if they spent so much effort only to refine one Medicinal Pills.
Although they only got two pills, it was better than only one! At least there was still one pill to spare.
However, who knew that the Old Man Of Alchemy would say, "Wait, Old Man Of Alchemy has to check."
In other words, they couldn't be sure whether the Medicinal Pills were refined or not just by looking at them. This time, everyone's hearts were hanging in the air again.
Just as the Old Man Of Alchemy was about to take out the two Medicinal Pills to check, Gu beat him to it and threw the two Medicinal Pills to Long Fei Ye. "Catch!"
"The efficacy of the pills refined by using external forces to supplement the fire is often insufficient. To be cautious, it's better to check them carefully."
As the Old Man Of Alchemy spoke, he reached out his hand to Long Fei Ye. However, before he could touch Long Fei Ye's hand, he was immediately frightened by his cold gaze and retracted his hand.
His little trick could fool the others, but it couldn't fool Gu and Long Fei Ye's eyes. The Dragon Pill Of Alchemy was already refined in the cauldron. How could it be insufficient? Otherwise, what was the difference between this Celestial Fire Qian Cauldron and other Alchemy Furnace furnaces?
The Old Man Of Alchemy obviously couldn't bear Of Alchemy and wanted to take one Dragon Pill Of Alchemy. Medicinal Pills Of Alchemy and Alchemy had Of Alchemy was Of Alchemy. Of Medicinal Pills of Alchemy.... In that case, Long Fei Ye and the others could only keep one Medicinal Pills.
Seeing Long Fei Ye's cold face, the Old Man Of Alchemy resentfully and unwillingly gave up his last effort.
Han Yunxi watched from the side and thought, Gu was indeed the Old Man Of Alchemy's disciple. The Old Man Of Alchemy couldn't hide anything from his eyes.
This crazy jailor had no principles at all. He bullied the weak and feared the strong. He was good at swindling and pretending to be crazy. If it wasn't for Gu's face, not to mention Long Fei Ye, even she wouldn't have been able to take it.
No matter what, the Dragon Pill Of Alchemy was in their hands this time.
"Gu Beiyue can finally be saved!" Han Yunxi couldn't help but sigh.
Obtaining a few Dragon Pill Of Alchemy wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that Gu Beiyue's Shadow Technique was about to recover!
Could this be considered a New Year's gift to him? If he knew this news, how happy would he be?
In her impression, Gu Beiyue had never lost his composure because of happiness or sadness. He was always so gentle and modest, unmoved by honor or disgrace.
"Here!" Long Fei Ye gave the two Medicinal Pills to Han Yunxi for safekeeping.
This Dragon Pill Of Alchemy could help a martial artist who had lost his or her internal energy recover. The so-called recovery didn't refer to the recovery of internal energy, but the recovery of the dantian. If one wanted to recover their original internal energy, it would depend on the martial artist's own efforts.
Of course, once the dantian was recovered, as long as one diligently recuperated, their internal energy would recover very quickly.
Although they now had an extra Dragon Pill Of Alchemy, Han Yunxi hoped that this Dragon Pill Of Alchemy would always be superfluous and would never be needed.
One had to know that with their current internal energy, if they needed to use this Medicinal Pills, it would be a nine out of ten chance of survival!
After obtaining the Dragon Pill Of Alchemy, Han Yunxi and the others naturally had to immediately return to the Three-Way Black Market. They had spent quite a bit of time in the Medicine Requesting Cave, and adding the time they would need to spend on the way back, they would need at least the middle of December to return to the Three-Way Black Market.
Based on the current situation on the Northern Li battlefield, after next spring, Jun Yi Xie and the Northern Dynasties Emperors would enter an all-out confrontation between the two armies. In other words, once they returned to the Three-Way Black Market, they had to start dealing with two important matters.
The first was to rescue people, and the second was to conquer the North.
There wasn't much to prepare for rescuing people. With Bai Yuqiao as their spy, they didn't need to worry too much. It was also because of Bai Yuqiao taking care of everything in Tiger's Prison that they hurriedly left Ning Jing and Mu Ling'er there temporarily, lulling Jun Yi Xie's vigilance.
Conquering the North was an extremely important matter. Not only did they need to break in, they also needed to take risks, they also needed to work together, and they also needed to clearly divide the work.
First, the Three-Way Battlefield was a natural stronghold at the border of Northern Li, easy to defend and hard to attack. Whether it was the Ning Family army or the East Qin army, they had never crossed the Three-Way Battlefield and entered Northern Li's territory. Even if they had the absolute advantage in terms of military strength, even Long Fei Ye didn't dare to let down his guard.
Second, the Di Clan and East Qin had never deeply cooperated before. If the two armies worked together, they would definitely encounter many problems. Although many people could brainstorm, many people would have mixed feelings and things would easily be delayed. Sometimes, it wouldn't be as efficient as having one person in charge.
Thus, whether it was for Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi, or for the East Qin army and the Di Clan, the northern expedition was an opportunity to break in and also a great challenge.
Before the expedition to the north, they had to have a lot of time to make ample preparations.
"Your Highness, the carriages have already been arranged." Xu Donglin said in a low voice.
"This time, if the matter of the Dragon Pill and the Phoenix Power is leaked, this old man will definitely turn your Alchemy Furnace into a furnace for burning corpses! I will do as I say! "
Although Gu understood the Old Man Of Alchemy very well and knew that he would never leave the Medicine Requesting Cave, let alone have contact with the outside world, he still left behind these ruthless words.
Long Fei Ye did not make a sound. If it wasn't for Gu's face, based on the Old Man Of Alchemy's actions regarding the Dragon Pill, he definitely would have sealed off the Medicine Requesting Cave.
Han Yunxi hesitated a bit before having Xu Donglin bring over the remaining snow wine. She said with a smile, "Old man, how about we make a deal?"
The Old Man Of Alchemy couldn't get the Dragon Pill and he couldn't keep Han Yunxi. He had lost both her and his money, so he was disheartened. Hearing Han Yunxi's words, he immediately became spirited, "He, he, this Old Man won't do a losing deal!"
"Here, I'll leave the remaining snow wine here and you can help us refine a few more Dragon Pill. No matter how many Medicinal Pills you refine, they will all belong to us. "
When Han Yunxi said this, the Old Man Of Alchemy laughed strangely, especially mockingly.
Han Yunxi didn't mind and continued, "As long as you refine a non-poisonous Dragon Pill, I'll use my Phoenix Fire to help you nourish the furnace once. What do you think? "
The Old Man Of Alchemy's strange laughter suddenly became more emphatic. He laughed loudly, "Good! Han Yunxi, you'll do as you say! "
"Hehe, I'm not you!" Han Yunxi replied disdainfully.
The Old Man Of Alchemy didn't blush. He stroked his beard and smoothed his hair, extremely happy.
For this kind of strange old man, threatening him to keep a secret was actually reminding him to threaten them with something. It was better to use the carrot and stick, cater to his fancy, and tempt him!
With the Old Man Of Alchemy's ability, it would take at least a few years for him to refine a non-poisonous Dragon Pill. By then, they wouldn't be afraid of him leaking any secrets.
Long Fei Ye glanced at Han Yunxi and suddenly realized that this woman was actually very suitable for the imperial court. She was quite good at using the carrot and stick tactic.
Gu didn't say anything. Although he was confident that the Old Man Of Alchemy wouldn't leak the secret, Han Yunxi was right to do this. This way, there would be no mistakes.
"Hehe, for a lousy furnace, he won't agree to anything."
After saying this, Gu leaped into the big hole in the air and left without looking back. He didn't even give the Old Man Of Alchemy a chance to refute him.
Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye didn't stay any longer and were about to leave. However, the Old Man Of Alchemy stopped them.
He asked Han Yunxi very seriously, "Girl, do you remember what you promised the Old Man?"
Han Yunxi immediately looked towards the hole, only to see that Gu had already disappeared.
Only then did she reply, "I remember. I helped you find a disciple, and you gave me the Medicine Requesting Cave.
The Old Man Of Alchemy suddenly flew into a rage, "Stupid girl, so you still remember! If you didn't break your promise to me first, the Old Man wouldn't have broken his promise to you! Even if you asked the Old Man to refine an elixir of immortality, since the Old Man promised, he would definitely do it! "
"I … How did I break my promise to you?" Han Yunxi was at a loss. The matter was already over. Why was this crazy old man still acting crazy with her?
The Old Man Of Alchemy reproached her, "You promised the Old Man, so you should have taken this matter to heart. It's been so long, but you didn't even send a message to the Old Man. You clearly didn't take this matter to heart! "
If Han Yunxi was really looking for someone, even if she wasn't, she would have at least written to him to ask for other clues. However, ever since they made the agreement, Han Yunxi never asked him about this matter again.
Han Yunxi finally understood what the Old Man Of Alchemy meant by breaking his promise.
If the Old Man Of Alchemy didn't mention it, she really wouldn't have thought that the real reason the Old Man Of Alchemy was fooling her was because of this matter.
She really didn't look for anyone, because she didn't need to!
The person the Old Man Of Alchemy was looking for was Gu, who had just left!
Han Yunxi originally planned to pretend to be deaf and mute when Gu refused to acknowledge this matter. However, seeing the Old Man Of Alchemy so serious, she couldn't help but ask.
She asked seriously, "Old Pill Elder, since you wanted to find your disciple so badly that you didn't even hesitate to hand over the Medicine Requesting Cave, why did you let him go in the first place?"
Before they arrived, she only knew that Gu had been avoiding this master and didn't want to come back.
But after a few days of interaction, anyone with eyes could tell that Gu Qishao held a grudge against his master.
What happened between the master and disciple back then?
If Han Yunxi's guess was correct, when Gu first came to the Alchemy Furnace, it should have been during the time when he had just escaped from Gu Yuntian's evil clutches. At that time, Xiao Qi was a child who had suffered all kinds of torture and was on the run for his life.
As long as someone treated him a little better, he would be deeply grateful!
What did the Old Man Of Alchemy do to him to make him hate him so much?
"Why?" Han Yunxi asked.
