    • by karlmaks Luo Jinhua’s words were a ray of light in the darkness. Qin Haoxuan’s despairing eyes suddenly lit up with hope. The Jade Bamboo Hall was renowned for its alchemy; they would surely be able to identify the poison. And once they knew what it was, they could formulate an antidote. Little Gold could be saved. And Chang Jizi was a renowned pill-maniac; if anyone could save him, it was him. "Thank you, Senior Sister!" Qin Haoxuan said, standing up in his excitement. The room was crowded, and in his haste,…
    • by karlmaks Before Li Jing could finish, Zhang Kuang cut him off, his voice still devoid of any emotion. "If you want to kill Qin Haoxuan, then I will kill you first. I don't care if you're a Purple Seed. Anyone who tries to kill him, I will kill them." An instinctive chill went down Li Jing's spine, quickly followed by a surge of his own anger. You're a Purple Seed, but so am I! I came to you in good faith to form an alliance, and this is how you speak to me? Who's afraid of who? "Senior Brother Zhang, it's not yet…
    • by karlmaks Little Gold's fur, once like golden satin, was now a dull, bruised purple-black. Qin Haoxuan’s pupils contracted, sparks of fury dancing in his eyes. Anyone could see what had happened. The monkey has been poisoned. If you have a problem, come at me. To attack a monkey? With such a low-handed trick? Even a beast wouldn't stoop so low! Calm down. I have to save him. He closed his eyes, forcing his emotions down. When he opened them again, the sight of Little Gold's purple-black body, unconscious and…
    • by karlmaks "The cultivation speed of a Purple Seed is just terrifying," the new disciples who were still at the Rooting or Sprouting stage lamented. The innate advantage of a Purple Seed was something they could never hope to match. Even the weakest of the three, Li Jing, was already at the Fourth-Leaf Realm. For an Uncolored Seed to reach that level, without some kind of fortuitous encounter, would take at least seven years of diligent practice. "Forget the Purple Seeds," another sighed, "even the two Gray Seeds,…
    • by karlmaks If Li Jing had known that Xu Yu was merely a proxy, that the Qi-Circulating Powder was actually refined by Qin Haoxuan, and that all the profits—including the spirit stones he had painstakingly borrowed—had ended up in Qin Haoxuan's pocket, he might have coughed up blood from sheer rage. Aside from the fields of the other special seeds, Li Jing calculated, Qin Haoxuan is getting a twenty-percent cut from all the new disciples' land. And on top of that, he's getting the same share from the fields of…
    • by karlmaks Hearing his senior brother's confession, a heroic spirit surged in Qin Haoxuan's heart. "Senior Brother," he declared, "I also want to do my part, not just for our master, but for our Nature Hall!" Pu Hanzhong firmly refused. "You haven't even grown a leaf yet," he said, shaking his head. "After you do, you'll have many more expenses. You need to buy Meridian Protecting Powder and learn how to refine pills. You can't even take care of yourself right now... ahem..." "As long as you cultivate diligently,…
    • by karlmaks "It's not that simple," Pu Hanzhong explained. "That dispelling art is only for the illusion formation. And its incantation changes every hour, shifting with the complex cycles of the heavens and the earth." He spoke with a look of reverence, and Qin Haoxuan listened with awe. He knew setting up a single formation was difficult; for the sect's founders to have woven three distinct types—attack, defense, and auxiliary—into one cohesive whole was a feat of unimaginable wisdom and power. "And don't…
    • by karlmaks Qin Haoxuan knew his senior brother was looking out for him. Remembering he had sold all his powder and had none left for himself, he gave a sheepish grin. "Senior Brother Pu, could I borrow a few stalks of Qi-Circulating Grass?" Pu Hanzhong knew exactly what he was planning. He unhesitatingly pulled out several stalks and pressed them into his hand. "We're brothers," he said. "Don't use words like 'borrow' with me. Take these, and if you need more, just ask." After giving him the grass, he hesitated, but…
    • by karlmaks Luo Jinhua's opinion of Qin Haoxuan improved once again. Anyone else, faced with fifteen hundred third-tier spirit stones, would have snatched it up in a heartbeat. But this boy was able to maintain his composure in the face of wealth, a sign of a truly firm Dao Heart. News of their massive profit, of course, reached the ears of the well-informed Li Jing and Zhang Yang almost immediately. Li Jing frowned. So that was how Xu Yu had broken through to the Second-Leaf Realm so quickly. She had refined such…
    • by karlmaks "As expected of Senior Brother Xu of the Ancient Cloud Hall. Generous and decisive, his reputation is well-deserved," Chang Jizi said, his smile looking a little forced. He was rapidly calculating his available funds. While he could afford the twelve hundred and fifty stones, an extra thirty was half a month's profit from his alchemy. Seeing Xu Can about to pay, he quickly shouted, "I'll add another ten!" Compared to Xu Can's bold raises, Chang Jizi seemed much more stingy. His cautious ten-stone bid…
