“What is your aptitude?” Ma Youcai asked.
Dong Xi immediately replied, “Fire, wood, earth spirit root, root value 71, 56, 48.”
Ma Youcai furrowed his brows. your aptitude is average. How did you cultivate to the second level of the Qi Refinement stage in such a short time? ”
Of course, Dong Xi would not tell the truth. She only shook her head with a blank expression. “Martial Uncle, this disciple doesn’t know either. That day, this disciple was meditating when I suddenly entered a state. When I woke up, I was already at the second level of the Qi Refinement stage.”
When Ma Youcai heard this, he thought that it was only reasonable to have an Epiphany.
He accepted this explanation and said indifferently, “You’re quite lucky. Since you’re already at the second level of the Qi Refinement stage, you can receive it. However, you haven’t refined pills yet. Go to the Cultivation Technique Hall and learn how to receive it.”
Dong Xi immediately nodded, her face filled with joy.
In any case, these were the sect’s herbs, so of course, she had to refine them. When she became an alchemy master, even if her aptitude was poor, she could still reach the Golden Core stage by taking pills every day!
“Thank you, Martial Uncle! After I finish today’s task, I’ll go and study!”
With that, she prepared to go distribute the medical herbs immediately, but Ma Youcai shouted, “Wait!”
Dong Xi turned around and saluted respectfully, “Uncle-Master, do you have any other instructions?”
Ma Youcai took out three Shengluo Flowers from his storage bag and placed them in her hand. “This is the reward for the mission. Don’t… Cough… Don’t go out and show off.”
Dong Xi was a smart child and instantly understood.
This was given to him by her Uncle-Master in private. Other disciples who came to do missions did not receive such treatment.
The smile on her face became even more radiant as she took the flowers with both hands and said happily, “Thank you, Martial Uncle! This disciple will remember!”
Although the medicine was also in the pharmacy, it was on the other side.
When Dong Xi went over to report, there were already other disciples here. They did not look too old and should have entered the sect in the same batch.
When these people saw Dong Xi coming over, their expressions all became unnatural.
Dong Xi’s hidden identity card was registered by the Senior Sister in charge and was sent to a large cabinet.
Hua Ling said, “You’re quite lucky. Martial Uncle Ma asked you to get the Spirit Restore Pill, which has the least amount of ingredients. Do it well. You have to give out 100 portions today. Disciples will come to collect them starting tomorrow, so you can’t delay.”
When Dong Xi heard the others call this Senior Sister Hua Ling, she also secretly remembered it.
“Thank you for your advice, Senior Sister Hua Ling.” Dong Xi obediently cupped her fists.
“You’re pretty quick-witted, hurry up and get back to work.” Hua Ling smiled.
Compared to sorting the herbs, picking the herbs was much easier. They just had to put the herbs together according to the prescribed ratio.
Just after noon, Dong Xi had sorted a hundred sets of medicinal ingredients. Hua Ling liked people who worked efficiently, so she directly gave her two days’ worth of points.
Dong Xi made a hand seal. Seeing the 20 points on the token, she was in a good mood.
She happily collected the ingredients for her ten Spirit Restore Pills and went to the Cultivation Technique Hall.
As soon as Dong Xi entered the Cultivation Technique Hall, she wanted to leave immediately. The smile on her face disappeared, and a complicated expression appeared on her face.
Liang Yan saw her as well. He had a deep impression of this junior.
Not only because she plucked his fruit, but also because Song Qingfeng would protect her.
He scanned Dong Xi with his divine sense. A thin layer of sweat appeared on Dong Xi’s forehead, and she instantly felt as if Liang Yan had seen through him.
The image of the sword stabbing toward her chest unconsciously appeared in her mind. Even though he was not the one who did it, it still caused Dong Xi to feel a lingering fear in her heart.
Her face was pale and her body was tense.
The air was frighteningly quiet. The little snake on her wrist came to life and moved a little. An ancient rune landed on Dong Xi’s forehead.
No one had noticed this, not even Dong Xi.
This talisman could ensure that no one would discover her special physique, and no one would be able to detect her true cultivation level.
To Dong Xi, this was also an additional cover.
“What do you want to learn?” Liang Yan asked after a long silence.
The coldness in Dong Xi’s heart slowly dissipated. She suppressed the discomfort in her heart and told herself that nothing had happened yet. She had to be careful in the future. She lowered her head and said in a low voice, “I’m learning alchemy.”
Liang Yan had just checked her cultivation. Although her aptitude was not very good, she cultivated quite fast. No wonder Song Qingfeng would protect her.
Liang Yan took out a jade slip and threw it to her. He said coldly, “Take a look first, ask if you don’t understand.”
Dong Xi immediately caught the jade slip and pressed it against his forehead. She was completely immersed in the jade slip.
After a while, she absorbed the alchemy techniques.
When she opened her eyes, Liang Yan asked, “how is it? What do you not understand?”
Dong Xi thought that she had to ask no matter what. When she was stronger in the future, she would not be afraid of him and could even teach him a lesson!
