Chapter 29: The Humble Su Muyu
Seeing her speechless, Yi Qianmo asked directly, “You seem to have a very good relationship with Yu Youwei.”
“I only know her casually. A few years ago, I came here and sometimes stayed with the Yu family, which is how I met her.”
Su Muyu’s attitude completely changed, and her tone became softer, “Can you really make elixirs? You can do it without spiritual power?”
“Yes.”
Yi Qianmo said, “But the conditions are a bit strict.”
“When you mentioned your family’s tradition, were you joking?”
Su Muyu immediately asked.
“Do I look like I’m joking?”
Yi Qianmo asked back, and Su Muyu was silent, thinking that this was already a joke.
With the Yi family’s background, how could there be methods of refining pills from immortal families?
Seeing Su Muyu’s curious look, Yi Qianmo explained, “My Yi family ancestor was once an immortal, but later the Yi family fell into decline, leading us to this situation. I accidentally obtained the pill-refining methods from my ancestor and found our ancestral land, where I got some pills.”
“Hmm!”
After hearing this, Su Muyu quickly caught the important information and said, “So these pills were not made by you.”
“No.”
Yi Qianmo replied directly.
Su Muyu was immediately furious, “How dare you deceive me!”
“Even though these pills were not made by me, it is not hard to make them.”
Yi Qianmo said, “After all, I have inherited the true teachings of my ancestors.”
“Hahaha…”
Su Muyu laughed, “Who do you think you are? If making pills were as easy as you imagine, then…”
Before she could finish, Yi Qianmo took out a pill. He circulated his energy, and the pill immediately floated in the air above his hand. As his energy entered it, the pill began to break apart.
If it were just crushing, she could do that too, but Su Muyu was sharp-eyed. When she looked closely, she realized it was not just that, and her expression grew more serious.
“Pill Reversal Technique!”
Su Muyu’s mouth fell open, “This is a technique that only an advanced Pill Master can perform, and you can actually use it!”
At that moment, Su Muyu was more shocked than when Yi Qianmo first mentioned the pill recipe and described the pill-making method.
The Pill Reversal Technique is only used by high-level Pill Masters. This method of reversal is usually used to trace the ingredients of a pill so that it can be replicated.
Although most reversal techniques cannot restore the original essence of pills, this Pill Reversal Technique is almost an essential skill for advanced Pill Masters.
The most frightening part is that Yi Qianmo is currently using true energy to reverse the pills, while his level of control far exceeds that of an ordinary Pill Reversal Technique.
The expression on Su Muyu’s face changed from disdain to surprise, and then from surprise to admiration.
After a moment, the pills in Yi Qianmo’s hand had divided into several portions, and under the wrapping of true energy, they turned into clumps of liquid in different colors, each giving off a different scent.
Finally, Yi Qianmo waved his hand, and the liquid in his grasp burst apart, transforming into wisps of mist.
Su Muyu then snapped back to reality and said, “You… you really know how to refine pills!!!”
But the expression on her face had changed to admiration, no longer looking down from above, even the way she addressed him had changed.
“Did I ever say that I couldn’t refine pills?”
Yi Qianmo replied with a question.
Su Muyu immediately took out the Tianyuan Decree and said, “I give you the Tianyuan Decree. If you come with me to the capital, I can give you whatever you want, as long as you join the Tianyuan Academy.”
Not just in the capital, but throughout the Yan Kingdom, a Pill Master is extremely precious. Once a mortal with alchemy talent is discovered, all the major sects will compete to recruit them.
However, Yi Qianmo did not take the Token and calmly said, “With my talent, if I join any of the Four Great Sects, I will be treated well. Why should I join the Tianyuan Academy?”
If it were before, Su Muyu would have turned and left without a second thought, showing no concern for Yi Qianmo at all. What kind of attitude was that?
But now Su Muyu dared not do so; there are very few advanced Pill Masters in the Yan Kingdom, and Yi Qianmo, without even entering the Qi Refining Stage, demonstrated the alchemy reversal technique.
If he enters the Qi Refining Stage and officially starts refining pills, he could even grow into someone beyond an advanced Pill Master.
If word of this got out, it would surely cause a stir throughout the Yan Kingdom. The Four Great Sects would immediately send people to recruit Yi Qianmo, and as long as the conditions aren’t too outrageous, they would likely agree.
Holding the Tianyuan Decree in her hand, Su Muyu looked very embarrassed, losing the arrogant demeanor she had before. Compared to the conditions the Four Great Sects might offer, the Tianyuan Decree in her hand seemed very insignificant.
Before coming here, she never thought about recruiting Yi Qianmo, let alone giving him the Tianyuan Decree.
She just wanted to know what really happened to the Yi family and what secrets were hidden behind it.
After a long silence, Su Muyu suddenly said, “Just because Tianyuan Academy is the only one willing to help you fight against the Xuanyuan Sect!”
“Huh?”
Yi Qianmo asked in confusion, “Why should I not join the Xuanyuan Sect and instead fight against it? With my current skills, isn’t it enough for the Xuanyuan Sect to choose between me and Yu Youwei?”
“Of course not!”
Su Muyu said, “Do you know who Yu Youwei became a disciple of after joining the Xuanyuan Sect?”
“Who?”
Yi Qianmo asked with concern.
“The headmaster of the Xuanyuan Sect, and she is his close disciple. The Young Sect Leader of the Xuanyuan Sect is about to become partners with Yu Youwei, and soon she will be the young sect master’s wife!”
Su Muyu said, “What do you think Xuanyuan Sect would choose between you and Yu Youwei?”
Upon hearing this, Yi Qianmo felt a storm of emotions inside him. Even though he hated Yu Youwei, he could not hide the fact that he once liked her.
After a long silence, Yi Qianmo calmed his feelings and said, “Besides Xuanyuan Sect, there are three other great sects that I can choose from!”
“But Xuanyuan Sect is the biggest sect in Yan Kingdom. No sect would anger the leader of Xuanyuan Sect or the Young Sect Leader over a Pill Master who hasn’t even grown yet.”
Su Muyu laughed and said, “Not to mention, you were once formally married to Yu Youwei. Xuanyuan Sect would never let you go.”
Yi Qianmo looked at her and said, “Then what about your Tianyuan Academy? Would you dare to offend Xuanyuan Sect?”
“Indeed, I would not dare.”
Su Muyu shook her head, “But if you become a member of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom and then join Tianyuan Academy, we will do everything to keep you safe!”
Yi Qianmo casually looked at her and said, “Oh, how can I become a member of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom?”
“It’s very simple.”
Su Muyu said, “Be my husband!”
“…”
Yi Qianmo’s eyes widened.
“Please don’t misunderstand, I’m just trying to recruit talent for Tianyuan Academy, and…”
At this point, Su Muyu blushed and said, “If you can truly become an advanced Pill Master, marrying you would be a great deal for me.”
In Su Muyu’s eyes, the condition she proposed was absolutely something Yi Qianmo could not refuse; after all, even though Yi Qianmo had inherited the legacy of his ancestors to become a Pill Master, he was still just an outsider from Green Cloud City.
Since she was lowering herself like this, how could Yi Qianmo possibly say no?
“No way!”
Yi Qianmo straightforwardly refused.
