"This I don't understand." Zhang Ye was somewhat unclear about the situation, had the elixir upgraded again?

  Tan Siqin said: "If you don't understand, then just say so, are you afraid I'll deceive you?"

  "The disciple does not dare." Zhang Ye said with his head lowered.

  "Don't think I'm providing you with free auxiliary medicine. These pellets of mine are going to be sold, and after they're sold, the rebate will naturally cover the cost of the medicine you took." Tan Siqin's voice floated away, and she disappeared.

  Zhang Ye was secretly calculating in his mind, and he didn't know how much Tan Siqin would deduct after selling it. He had to leave some soup for himself.

  Zhang Ye actually still understood, after all, Shifu had gotten her a fifth-grade Dan furnace, and this alone was already a great kindness.

  Tianlang Peak, Guantian Temple.

  Or Heaven Wolf sat in the inner hall, the divine light in his eyes was somewhat dimmer than before. The pale-faced Shi Tianyun knelt at the feet of Huo Tianlang.

  Although Huo Tianlang also had a serious physical condition in the battle of Zhenyao Tower, his master brother's momentum was not reduced at all.

  He wore an expression of exhaustion, and coldly said: "Trash!"

  Shi Tianyun said, "Please, Big Brother Master, punish me. Not only did I fail to complete the task entrusted to me, but my divine ability was also broken. My cultivation will soon reach the sixth layer of foundation building, and my fourth-grade Wind Spirit Sword has been taken away. Big Brother Master must do justice for me."

  "He still has the face to say that." Huo Tianlang grunted, but didn't continue, thinking back to when he had used his trump card, the Golden Elixir, in an attempt to kill with one blow, yet it hadn't succeeded. There was indeed something strange about Zhang Ye's body. What exactly was it?

  "Never mind. I'll settle the score after I recover." said Huo Tianlang.

  Shi Tianyun said: "My divine power has been broken, please ask Big Brother to help me out. If I'm demoted to an inner sect disciple, I'll probably die at the hands of that treacherous little brat within a day."

  "Don't worry about this, the sect leader has always been lenient. I'll try to ask the master to mediate and maybe you can keep your position as a true disciple. However, you must work hard and regain your divine powers within a short period of time." Tian Lang's face was gloomy.

  Shi Tianyun let out a sigh and said: "Big Brother Master, what's going on with the Kunlun Mirror Suppressing Demon Tower?"

  "Shut up!" Tian Lang coldly shouted, "This matter is not to be mentioned again, it's the order of the sect leader."

  "Yes." Shi Tianyun was startled, and with his head down, he continued: "Yang Zheng had already infiltrated the inner door of the Pharmaceutical Institute and controlled the situation. Unfortunately, he was severely injured by Zhang Ye's punch and won't be able to participate in this year's Sword Trial either. Originally, I thought Tang Tianhua would go and provoke Zhang Ye, but for some reason, Tang Tianhua has restrained her arrogant attitude as a young lady and is unusually low-key this time."

  "What's wrong with Tang Tianluo?" Huo Tianlang sneered, "She's not just being reserved, she can't even bite back. If Zhang Ye was so easy to deal with, would so many people have fallen into his hands? In the past, it was Lan Tianying who protected him, but now that Lan Tianying is gone, a more overbearing Tan Sicong has arrived, and even I would have to retreat."

  He paused for a moment, then Huo Tianlang tossed out a jade box and said: "There's a dan medicine in here, take it to Yang Zheng, after his injuries have healed, let him come see me. I'll forcibly raise his cultivation level. At the Cultivation Trial Sword Conference, don't make me lose face."

  "Yes." Shi Tianyun put away the jade box and retreated.

  In the evening, a strange guest arrived at Taixuan Peak.

  Hanging City, Commander's Hall.

  Wang Shan, who had arrived again, still looked like a smiling and affable businessman. He raised his high-quality spiritual tea and took a sip, saying, "This time I'm passing by, so I'll take the opportunity to visit Master Siqin in the mountains and ask, how's Zhang Ye's progress?"

  Tan Siqin directly threw a jade box into his hands: "The first batch of elixir is out, you take it to see if it's useful."

  Wang Shan's eyes widened in surprise, "It's quite unexpected. According to the reports from the people on the island, Zhang Ye has only just begun building his foundation, and I thought it would take much longer for him to master the Five Spirits Divine Cauldron. Hmm, I suppose with the assistance of Tan Siqin Elder, he was able to achieve this so quickly."

  "I'm not that great, don't put a high hat on me. It's just the kid being self-reliant." Tan Siqin spoke to everyone in a cold tone.

  He had known her for decades, so Wang Shan didn't mind her temper. He smiled and said no more. Holding the three elixirs, he observed them for a long time.

  "Upgraded again?" Wang Shan was directly stunned, "This is entirely a combination of the Four Yang Pill, the Gathering Spirit Pill, and the Ling Huang Pill, with not even a slight reduction in medicinal effect."

  "You're telling the truth for once," said Tan Siqin. "Last time I thought you even fooled me."

  Wang Shan said seriously, "Doing business, especially for us big shots, of course, we value our reputation. We've never been a one-time deal, so Elder Tan Siqin can rest assured."

  "Cut the crap, name your price!" Tan Siqin said bluntly.

  Suddenly

  Wang Shan threw out twelve jade pots, each containing fifty Yuanyuan Dan. A total of six hundred pills. He said casually, "This is just a deposit, I didn't come specifically today, so there aren't many things on hand. Elder Tan, please take these first, and we'll discuss the details later."

  After chatting for a few sentences about other realms' news, Wang Shan bid farewell with three Soul Pellet samples.

  The snow is getting smaller and smaller, and it's almost early spring.

  At night, Jin Ya shed a tear for the first time, and his bitter sigh pierced through the gourd, startling Zhang Ye who was dozing off.

  After entering the gourd, the soil was washed with an even stronger bitter baptism, and the spiritual power became stronger, the spirit energy became thicker, and the soil quality was improved again. However, Xiaojin's condition is not good, and it has wilted a bit.

  Although he didn't know what had happened, Zhang Ye knew this wasn't a good situation.

  In violation of the great principle of yin-yang balance, this is not mutual nourishment, but gold sprouts giving and earth receiving.

  He stroked Jin Yu's hair and asked with a worried tone, "Girl, what's wrong?"

  Golden buds swaying back and forth, looking very sad, but unable to speak.

  She is worried about Lan Tianying.

  The purple-clothed figure, who had been absent for a long time, suddenly appeared and whispered in his mind.

  "Big sister... but what's big sister Gu Jin Yu doing?" Zhang Ye fell into confusion.

  "Originally, I shouldn't have told you, but I didn't expect it to have such a great impact on Jin Ya. This golden sprout was born from the heaven and earth, but it emerged from the ground because of Lan Tianying's sincere and passionate tears."

  "Really?" Zhang Ye's voice sounded a bit hoarse.

  Zi Yi roughly explained the situation at that time and said, "At that time, I was also moved. She stabilized your chaotic breath with great effort, using golden elixir to help you break through, and we both drew away a large amount of true yuan, which caused her immense harm. However, you were unaware at the time and mistakenly misunderstood her. You will understand the preciousness of your life's true yuan later. Only Lan Tianying would be willing to do this for you. If it weren't so cruel, everyone could rely on their elders to advance, and the meaning of the Great Dao's true explanation would be lost. At that time, Lan Tianying was almost going against heaven, at least losing a layer of cultivation."

  Pausing for a moment, Zǐ Yī continued, "Of course, if she hadn't had such feelings, the golden sprout would never have broken through the earth."

  Zhang Ye finally understood why, at that time, the purple-clothed woman was so determined to let him go find his senior sister for the Seven Treasures Gourd, and even said that she would give it to him with her life. His senior sister was indeed such a simple person.

  Zhang Ye also burst into tears with a loud "wow".

  Zi Yi didn't want to say more and somehow had already slipped away, leaving Zhang Ye alone in the small courtyard crying.
