"Looks like I have misjudged you. I am ashamed." Family Head Mang Xiao quickly cupped his hands and apologized to Lu Xiaotian. Previously, when Lu Xiaotian was refining pills in the South Xiang County City, the level of alchemy he displayed was already considered to be one of the best among alchemy grandmasters. Now that Lu Xiaotian claimed to be an alchemy grandmaster, Family Head Mang Xiao did not have too many doubts in his heart. After all, which alchemy grandmaster would dare to boast about the Peaches of Immortality? They would only be ridiculed for overestimating their own capabilities.
"If I had known that Mister Dongfang's alchemy skills were so shocking, I would have treated you more courteously in the South Xiang County City.
"Family Head Mang Xiao is too courteous. I wonder if Family Head Mang Xiao would consider what I said just now?" Lu Xiaotian waved his hand. A person with a certain level of strength would receive a certain level of treatment. Family Head Mang Xiao really did not have any impoliteness.
"The Peaches of Immortality are precious. When the time comes, there will definitely be an intense battle in the auction in Xiang City. Even I do not have the slightest confidence to obtain this item. Not only the various cultivation clans of the Xiang Country, but also the imperial family experts with shocking backgrounds. Even the powers of the Tian Wu Kingdom and the Da Qi Kingdom may join in this battle. "Family Head Mang Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Then let's first get the pill formula. Any pill formula related to the Peaches of Immortality will be fine." Lu Xiaotian took a step back and said, "The world is so big and there are so many strange things. As an alchemy grandmaster, I am also very curious about this pill formula."
"Alright, I will do my best. However, the Peaches of Immortality are a rare treasure in this world. The pill formula cannot be obtained so easily. Mister Dongfang must be patient." Family Head Mang Xiao said.
"That is natural. In addition, there is one more thing that I need to trouble Family Head Mang Xiao with." Lu Xiaotian said bluntly.
"Mister Dongfang, please speak your mind. As long as it is within my ability, I will not hesitate." Family Head Mang Xiao said generously.
"In the past, I had some dealings with a Yao cultivator. This Yao cultivator is an Eight-legged Demonic Ox Beast. He was captured by the Yuan Family, and I don't know if he's dead or alive. This Yao cultivator helped me a little, so I can't just sit by and watch. I hope that Family Head Mang Xiao can help me find his whereabouts. If he's still alive, it would be even better if you can help me find him."
Lu Xiaotian said. Previously, he didn't want to expose his alchemy skills because he didn't want to attract too much trouble. Now that the situation had changed, his strength alone was not enough in front of a large immortal cultivator clan like the Yuan Clan. An alchemy grandmaster could solve many of his problems. This included the matter of the Eight-footed Demonic Ox. Moreover, he had the Peaches of Immortality in his possession, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to extend his lifespan. Of course, it would be even better if he could obtain the pill recipe. There was no harm in giving it a try.
"I've heard a thing or two about this Yao cultivator. I didn't expect him to be friends with Mister Dongfang. Fine, if it's not convenient for Mister Dongfang to appear, I'll ask around for Mister Dongfang."
That ox Yao wasn't a benevolent creature. It was said that he liked to eat human flesh. However, to be able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, his hands were stained with human blood. Killing and eating humans were just killing them. It was just that the latter part was a little disgusting from a human's point of view. Not to mention Yao cultivators, there were also cannibals in the desolate lands of the Scarlet Abyss Continent. It wasn't strange for someone who cultivated some kind of evil cultivation method to have such a hobby. As the head of a cultivation clan, Family Head Mang Xiao had seen his fair share of dark sides. He naturally didn't find this strange.
"Then I'll have to trouble Family Head Mang Xiao. If this matter is successful, I'll owe Family Head Mang Xiao a favor." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"Haha, Mister Dongfang is too courteous. This matter shouldn't be delayed. I'll go back and ask around about Mister Dongfang's Yao cultivator friend." Family Head Mang Xiao had been waiting for these words. A favor from a Pill Grandmaster was extraordinary. As long as he could establish a relationship with Lu Xiaotian, it would be much easier to ask Lu Xiaotian to refine pills for him in the future.
As for whether this Pill Grandmaster was true, Family Head Mang Xiao wasn't too worried. Even a Pill Grandmaster would have to consider the consequences if he wanted to deceive a Great Cultivator like him. Moreover, Family Head Mang Xiao had personally witnessed Lu Xiaotian's pill refining skills. Back then, he felt that there were very few Alchemy Grand Masters that could compare to him. Family Head Mang Xiao and Zhu Qingquan also had a certain degree of suspicion. Now that Lu Xiaotian had a request for him, he would casually find an opportunity to have Lu Xiaotian refine a few more batches of pills for him.
In order to avoid making Lu Xiaotian unhappy, he didn't directly test Lu Xiaotian's cultivation. He could see that Lu Xiaotian was definitely not weak in the Early Nascent Soul Stage. His spiritual sense was extremely powerful. Although not many people knew about the battle with Xiang Yuze, a big shot like Family Head Mang Xiao happened to be one of the few people who knew. To be able to suppress Xiang Yuze and be a Pill Grandmaster. Such a person's achievements were no less than his. No wonder he left without saying goodbye in Flying Flow City. How could a flood dragon be content to stay in shallow water? It was not shameful for an alchemy grandmaster to use some means to make him and Zhu Qingquan misjudge him.
"Oh right, I don't like to be disturbed by worldly matters. I hope Family Head Mang Xiao won't spread the news about me." Lu Xiaotian added.
"Don't worry, Mister Dongfang. I will definitely guard it well. If Mister Dongfang doesn't mind the jade token I gave you, you can use it to get rid of some bored people in the future." Family Head Mang Xiao was happy when he heard this. He didn't like to be disturbed by worldly matters. Didn't this mean that some trivial matters could be handed over to him in the future? Of course, as a hero, he didn't have to do everything himself. There were plenty of people running errands for him.
"This Zhu Qingquan fought with me last time, but it was a draw. This time, his luck isn't as good as mine." As he left, Family Head Mang Xiao chuckled in his heart. He had heard that Zhu Qingquan had discovered another newly advanced Pill Grandmaster, so he personally went to win him over. Family Head Mang Xiao was a step slower than others. He was originally a little annoyed, but now he was secretly laughing. "Picking a sesame seed and losing a watermelon. If he knew that Mister Dongfang was actually a Pill Grandmaster, I wonder how wonderful his expression would be."
"Then I'll wait for Family Head Mang Xiao's good news." Lu Xiaotian smiled and got up to send Family Head Mang Xiao off.
It was unrealistic to directly rescue Niu Kun from the Yuan Family with his own strength. However, it would be much more convenient if he went through Family Head Mang Xiao. After sending Family Head Mang Xiao off, Lu Xiaotian speculated in his heart.
After sending Family Head Mang Xiao off, Lu Xiaotian didn't have any intention to continue cultivating. He walked out of the house and happened to see Huya in the courtyard. Thus, he casually asked, "Why haven't I seen Xiao Qiao and Xiang Hua? Where did they go?"
Huya pursed her lips and smiled. "I thought that Master wouldn't ask. I heard that Xiang Hua had a sweetheart who came to Xiangdu. Xiang Hua went to see her early. Xiao Qiao couldn't stay idle, so she followed him."
