To take an apprentice
When Willow Deity arrived at Qi Tai's alchemy room, she realized that Elder Xuan had already disappeared. Only Qi Tai was there to sort out the spiritual herbs.
"Master, where is Old Man Xuan?" Willow Deity asked somewhat anxiously.
"The transaction between us has already been completed. Previously, I deliberately delayed him when he was buying things. According to your speed, you should have just met him. Why didn't you see him?" Qi Tai frowned.
"Just left?" Willow Deity was stunned. "There's only one way out of the trading company. Could it be that I didn't encounter the small path that Elder Xuan took?"
"Maybe it's because you don't have the opportunity." Qi Tai shook his head.
Willow Deity clenched her fists, a look of dissatisfaction on her face. However, no matter how hard she racked her brains, she couldn't find any traces of Elder Xuan. She only met Gu Xuan on the path that she had to pass through.
"Gu Xuan?"
Willow Deity suddenly had a strange feeling when she thought of Gu Xuan's smile. She thought about it carefully and realized that Gu Xuan and the mysterious Elder Xuan seemed to have some similarities. They seemed to be gradually merging.
"It seems that I was so disappointed that even my brain became muddled." Willow Deity shook her head. Although Elder Xuan's face was masked, how could someone who was respected by her master be related to Gu Xuan?
"Perhaps Elder Xuan wants to continue testing me and give me pointers in the future." Willow Deity consoled herself.
…
After Gu Xuan returned to the Gu Clan, he walked straight to the Spirit Medicine Field and came to Elder Ghost's small house.
"Big Brother, I … Sigh, this old man doesn't have the face to see you." Elder Ghost looked at Gu Xuan with a face full of shame.
Previously, he could tell that Gu Xuan and his son were in danger. However, he had not decided whether to help or not. In the end, he did not dare to help Gu Xuan. He simply left and resigned himself to fate.
Although Gu Xuan won in the end, he still felt guilty.
"I don't blame you." Gu Xuan shook his head.
"Are you telling the truth or lying?" Elder Ghost looked at Gu Xuan suspiciously.
"Really." Gu Xuan nodded. Since Elder Ghost was sent by Old Third, it was within Gu Xuan's expectations that the latter would not dare to make a move.
The ranking of his four disciples was only based on their age, not the order in which they entered the sect. Gu Xingyun entered the sect at the age of 14, while Li Xieyun and Mo Jingyun became his disciples at the age of seven or eight. He knew the temperament of these two the best.
The third disciple, Li Xieyun, other than being respectful to him, actually had an evil personality. If he was affected by evil Qi, even his two senior brothers would turn against him. As for Li Xieyun's subordinates, they did not dare to disobey his orders at all.
"Sigh, although you don't blame me, this old man still feels very guilty. What do you need my help with right now? Even if I transfer one star of flame energy to you, I will definitely not refuse." Elder Ghost patted his chest and said.
Gu Xuan smiled and opened the bag on his body, revealing the spiritual herbs inside. "I'm not that kind of immoral person, and I won't spoil things through excessive enthusiasm. If you feel like you owe me, then help me refine these medicinal pills. While you're at it, just help me complete one thing."
Seeing the large pile of spiritual herbs, Elder Ghost's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.
Previously, when Gu Xuan refined the Spirit Awakening Pill with him, he felt that he was extremely close to the realm of a Level Four alchemist. Now that Gu Xuan had so many medicinal pills for him to refine, he was almost certain that he could break through to Level Four!
Gu Xuan first took out the materials for the Heaven Mending Pill and said, "You should refine these three Heaven Mending Pills first."
"Okay." Elder Ghost nodded and did not dawdle. He immediately summoned the flame and began to refine the pills.
After the last guidance, Elder Ghost's alchemy ability had obviously improved. Although it was only a Level Three medicinal pill, it was already quite difficult to refine it smoothly.
In fact, Elder Ghost's talent in alchemy was not low. It was just that he was forbidden from leaving the Gu family, so he could not get the opportunity to refine pills.
Gu Xuan casually found a place to sit down and took out the Spirit Refining Stone to observe.
With a flip of his hand, the Icy Soul Cold Flame was summoned out of his body. With a wave, it was injected into the Spirit Refining Stone.
Ka ka!
When the Icy Soul Cold Flame's suction force entered the stone, it immediately caused the surface of the Spirit Refining Stone to crack.
The Spirit Refining Stone could be used to recover the soul, but it could not improve the origin. Yun Xi's consciousness could automatically absorb it without Gu Xuan's help. However, with the origin flame busy, it was impossible for Gu Xuan to cultivate.
After a day and a night, Elder Ghost finished refining the three Level Three Heaven Mending Pills. He was already sweating profusely from exhaustion, but he could not hide the excitement in his eyes. He had refined the three medicinal pills to medium quality. This was a huge improvement.
After handing the Heaven Mending Pills to Gu Xuan, Elder Ghost was about to refine other medicinal pills when Gu Xuan stopped him.
"Speaking of which, are you interested in taking in a disciple?" Gu Xuan asked.
"Taking in a disciple?" Elder Ghost was stunned. "I have high standards. The best candidate for my disciple is you. The key is that your alchemy ability is higher than mine, and your cultivation speed is faster than mine. You are also my big brother, so you definitely don't want me to take you in."
"It's my father who wants you to be his master. Just treat it as buying a favor from me." Gu Xuan shrugged helplessly.
"That's no problem. It just so happens that I have nothing to do." Elder Ghost nodded his head straightforwardly.
"Hmm … It's not a big deal for you to take my father as your disciple, but we can't mess up the seniority. I'm your big brother, and my father becomes your disciple. Doesn't that mean I'm a generation older than my father?" Gu Xuan said after some thought.
"That's true." Elder Ghost said very directly.
Gu Xuan thought about it, then suddenly smiled strangely. "How about this? You take in a disciple on behalf of someone else, and let my father continue to be a generation older than me. How about that?"
"Hmm, good idea." Elder Ghost nodded his head in agreement, but then his face immediately darkened.
A generation older than him? Didn't that mean he would have to take in a disciple on behalf of his ancestor? If he took in a disciple, it would be fine if there were no benefits, but in the end, this disciple would become his martial uncle for no reason?
What was this …
Under Elder Ghost's strong opposition, Gu Xuan gave up on this idea. In the end, he still decided to take in a disciple on behalf of his master. This way, Gu Tian Mo would be considered the disciple of Elder Ghost's master, but he would be taught by Elder Ghost, his senior brother.
Gu Xuan introduced his father to Elder Ghost. When Gu Tian Mo heard that Elder Ghost wanted to take in a disciple on behalf of his master, although he knew it was to balance the seniority, he was still a bit surprised.
As for Gu Xuan, in order to avoid awkwardness, he left the spiritual medicine field after taking the three Heaven Mending Pills.
Elder Ghost was a King level expert, so it was more than enough for him to teach his father.
