After hearing Zhang Zhenhai's words, everyone understood why he didn't chase after Liu Feibai. If it were them, they would make the same choice. On one side is the alchemist who is of great help to the family, and on the other side is the enemy of personal grudge? Which is more important
"I appreciate Mr. Zhang's kindness, but I have no intention of joining a force for the time being." Ye Qiu shook his head slightly. During this period, he had experienced great ups and downs in his life, and his state of mind was different from before. So before, he would naturally choose a force to rely on without hesitation, but now, he wanted to follow his own path of alchemy!
Seeing that Ye Qiu did not agree, a trace of disappointment flashed across Zhang Zhenhai's face, and then he smiled and said, "If Master Ye is interested in the future, my Zhang family will be waiting for you at any time. I will come to your house in person to apologize someday."
After saying this, Zhang Zhenhai bowed slightly to Ye Qiu and left the restaurant immediately. He had to inform the family as soon as possible about what happened here. Regardless of whether Ye Qiu would return to the Zhang family or not, the most urgent task was to resolve the grievances with Ye Qiu. Don't forget that it was the Zhang family who expelled Ye Qiu before.
Although the Zhang family was also deceived, they now clearly know what happened. If they don't say anything, it will be the Zhang family's problem! Moreover, as an alchemist who can refine the perfect sect-breaking pill, Ye Qiu's status will only be higher than before. The Zhang family can't afford to offend him!
"Master Ye!"
"Master Ye!"
Inside the restaurant, other practitioners also bowed to Ye Qiu in greeting. A powerful alchemist was someone that no one wanted to offend.
"Brother Ye, you have finally washed away the stigma on you. This is really cause for celebration." Yang Qi looked at Ye Qiu and said with a smile.
After refining the Po Zong Dan on the spot this time, the blame of being framed by Liu Feibai was completely cleared up, and Yang Qi was also happy for Ye Qiu.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu smiled, which was rare for him. It was not only because he had washed away the stigma on his body, but more importantly, he had gained a lot from this alchemy session and his technique had become more perfect.
"Senior, thank you for the medicinal materials for the Pozong Pill. I will return them to you as soon as possible." Ye Qiu came to the elegant old man in the corner and said with gratitude.
"It's just a portion of medicinal ingredients for a Pozong Pill. It's worth it to be able to see such a wonderful alchemy." The elegant old man smiled slightly. He didn't care much about a portion of medicinal ingredients for a Pozong Pill, but being able to meet such a junior with great talent and potential in alchemy is not comparable to a portion of medicinal ingredients for a Pozong Pill.
"Brother Ye, the senior did not just give you a portion of medicinal herbs. Just now, Liu Feibai was planning to secretly use his aura to interfere with you." Yang Qi said in a deep voice.
"Senior brother..." Ye Qiu opened his mouth, but finally sighed. At this moment, he also understood that the relationship between him and Liu Feibai as senior brothers was gone.
"Although we noticed Liu Feibai's little trick, unfortunately we can't help you." Having said this, Yang Qi looked at the elegant old man and continued, "Isn't it that the senior secretly helped you at that time?"
The elegant old man heard this, but he did not deny it. He nodded slightly and said, "He is not as capable as others, but he attacks secretly. This kind of person should be taught a lesson."
"Thank you for your help, senior." Ye Qiu said hurriedly. As an alchemist, he knew very well that if he was interrupted at the critical moment, even if he managed to refine the Sect Breaking Pill, there would definitely be flaws, and it would never be as perfect as just now.
The elegant old man's eyes fell on Ye Qiu, and he said slowly, "I see that you have a good talent in the way of alchemy. It just so happens that I am also practicing the way of alchemy. Would you like to become my disciple?"
"this… "
Hearing this, Ye Qiu became a little hesitant.
"I almost forgot, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Chu Li." The elegant old man said with a smile.
Chu Li
Ye Qiu looked confused. Is this name famous? Not only Ye Qiu, but also Yang Qi and others beside him looked at the elegant old man in confusion.
Seeing Ye Qiu and his group with confused faces, Chu Li's mouth twitched involuntarily. Could it be that he hadn't been in the cultivation world for a long time and no one had heard of him
"I'm from the Palace of King Chu." The elegant old man said helplessly. When had he, Chu Li, ever relied on the name of the Palace of King Chu? Now, facing Ye Qiu and the others, he had to bring out the name of the Palace of King Chu.
Palace of King Chu
Hearing Chu Li's words, Yang Qi and the others couldn't help but take a deep breath. The Chu Palace was the recognized number one sect in the Great Chu Empire. Although the Tianjian Sect was powerful, it was still a little behind the Chu Palace. It was only because of the elite policy implemented by the Tianjian Sect that the Tianjian Sect was not weaker than the Chu Palace in terms of the strength of its disciples. Chu Li was from the Chu Palace, and his surname was Chu, so he was very likely a member of the royal family!
"Brother Ye, agree to it." Wang Hai said in a low voice.
This is the Chuwang Palace. Although the entrance examination is not as difficult as the Tianjian Sect, it is still not easy. Every year, the Chuwang Palace recruits disciples, and countless practitioners go to participate in the entrance examination. Ye Qiu is already over the age of 30 required to participate in the entrance examination. If nothing unexpected happens, he will never be able to join the nine major sects in his lifetime.
But there are exceptions, that is, being accepted as a disciple by the elders of the Chuwang Palace, just like Liu Fei. Liu Fei also did not participate in the Tianjianmen’s entrance examination, but because Lei Yun accepted her as a disciple, she directly became a disciple of the Tianjianmen.
In other words, as long as Ye Qiu agrees to Chu Li, he can immediately enter the Palace of King Chu!
Although the Chu Palace has greater restrictions, even the disciples will be labeled as members of the Great Chu Empire. Perhaps some practitioners do not like this kind of restriction, but the Great Chu Empire, which has stood on the Zichen Continent for hundreds of thousands of years, is something that countless practitioners yearn for.
Yang Qi also hoped that Ye Qiu would agree, but he did not say anything. After all, Ye Qiu still had to make the decision himself.
“Senior, I once promised my master that I would carry forward his lineage of alchemy skills…” Ye Qiu pondered.
"If you become my disciple and learn more advanced alchemy techniques, wouldn't it be easier to carry forward your master's lineage?" Upon hearing this, Chu Li was not angry but smiled.
Ye Qiu couldn't help but fall silent after hearing this. After a moment, he said respectfully, "Disciple Ye Qiu, I pay my respects to the Master."
"Okay, okay~" Chu Li laughed. Although Ye Qiu was a little older than the average genius, in his opinion, there was no problem at all. With his help, Ye Qiu would be able to enter the level of Martial Master and have a lifespan of nearly a thousand years.
"Brother Ye, congratulations." Yang Qi said sincerely when he saw Ye Qiu becoming his disciple.
Hu Feng and others on the side also congratulated Ye Qiu. With Ye Qiu's level of medicine refining, if he joined the Chu King Palace, his future achievements would definitely not be inferior to theirs. Moreover, the other party was also a medicine refiner, and his status was more noble than that of ordinary practitioners. It was worth the trip to meet such a practitioner.
"This is the disciple token of the Chu Palace. You should refine it first." Chu Li handed a token to Ye Qiu.
It was a golden token with only one word on it, Chu. This was the token for the disciples of the Chu Palace, and also the symbol of the Great Chu Empire. (To be continued)
