Yun Yun thought about it and realized that it was true. After all, Ye Liuyun had revealed his identity as an alchemist during the formal assessment not long ago.
"What level of alchemist is she? Why does she have such miraculous elixirs? I'm not saying that she shouldn't give them to her disciples, I'm just curious about what kind of elixirs she gave to the disciples present here." Yun Yun said.
But Nalan Yan shook her head, saying that she didn't know either. She really didn't know and she didn't intend to hide it.
Yun Yun fell into deep thought for a moment. She felt that if she wanted to figure out this matter, she should just ask her apprentice directly.
"Okay, you guys have a good rest. I will take you back to the sect tomorrow. We don't need so many people here." Yun Yun said this and left.
After they left, the male disciples began to talk to each other.
"Junior Sister Ye, you look so gentle, and you're actually an alchemist. Sigh! I owe Junior Sister Ye a huge favor."
"Who said it wasn't true? When Junior Sister Ye spoke to me, my heart melted."
"Ugh... Hey, stop talking so disgustingly. Please don't use your dirty heart to fantasize about filthy things."
The disciples lying in the tents started to confront each other.
It can only be said that Ye Liuyun left an indelible impression in their hearts. This impression was not one of desire, but one of respect.
It is reasonable to respect the person who saved your life, but if you blaspheme your savior, you are definitely a scum.
Ye Liuyun knew that if he did this, the sect would definitely notice it, but using worthless things to make these senior brothers and sisters in the sect owe her a favor might help Lin Aoxue quickly increase her support rate among the sect disciples.
As for those disciples of Zixia Sect, Ye Liuyun felt that the goodwill he left today would surely bear fruit one day. It is always better to have more friends than more enemies. This is Ye Liuyun's own idea.
Chapter 53 Return to the Sect
The next day, early in the morning.
Yun Yun summoned all the disciples of Lingxi Realm and asked them to take the wounded and return to the sect with her on the magic weapon spaceship.
There is no point in them staying here. This time I brought them out to see real blood and gore.
To put it bluntly, it is to increase their courage. The sect must have someone left behind, and these wounded soldiers need to recuperate after returning.
But when they were on the boat, Yun Yun suddenly called Lin Aoxue to her side alone.
"Aoxue, your master has something to ask you." Yun Yun glanced at Ye Liuyun in the distance and said in a low voice.
Lin Aoxue was stunned.
"Master, what's going on so mysteriously?" Lin Aoxue looked around and found that her master seemed to be intentionally avoiding the crowd, which meant that what he wanted to tell her was not a trivial matter.
"Then I'll be frank. Your sister is an alchemist. You must know this, right? But I'm very curious about what kind of alchemist she is. Do you know this?" Yun Yun told Lin Aoxue about Ye Liuyun's treatment of the wounded yesterday.
After hearing this, Lin Aoxue was shocked. She didn't expect Yun Yun to come to ask about this matter. However, after thinking about it, Lin Aoxue simply shook her head at Yun Yun.
"Master, it's true that my sister is an alchemist, but you said that her alchemy skills are very good, then I don't know. I never ask about her private affairs. After all, everyone has secrets. I only told her the method of cultivating immortals that you passed on to me after I came to the sect." Lin Aoxue replied.
Yun Yun just looked at her apprentice calmly. When she saw Lin Aoxue speaking so calmly with no fluctuation in her eyes, she knew that Lin Aoxue really didn't know about this matter. But judging from Lin Aoxue's reaction, she should know something about it, but just didn't know the specific situation.
Yun Yun fell into deep thought for a moment. If Ye Liuyun was a very powerful alchemist, then their Yunxia Sect would definitely have to cultivate him vigorously and would definitely not bury him. So she was considering whether to let Lin Aoxue go and ask Ye Liuyun.
But just when she was struggling with this, Lin Aoxue said something that dissuaded her from getting to the bottom of the matter.
"Master, you don't have to worry about her. Although she has secrets, her secrets will never harm the sect. Moreover, as long as I am still in Yunxia Sect and I am still a disciple of Yunxia Sect, she will definitely not have any ulterior motives. So, Master, there is no need for you to worry about anything." Lin Aoxue could see that Yun Yun had some ideas.
Yun Yun thought about it, then smiled bitterly.
"This? Okay, you're right. I'll listen to you." Yun Yun nodded.
Because she could see that the relationship between Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun was definitely better than her relationship with Yunxia Sect, and Lin Aoxue was the future successor of Yunxia Sect, so even if Ye Liuyun had some great abilities, he would definitely be used by Yunxia Sect in the future.
So there was no need for her to find out the truth about Ye Liuyun's situation.
Sometimes getting to the bottom of things will only cause others to feel disgusted and suspicious.
After Lin Aoxue finished talking with Yun Yun, they went to tell Ye Liuyun immediately. After Ye Liuyun learned that Yun Yun asked Lin Aoxue about his situation, he didn't find it surprising.
"I knew that this matter would definitely arouse her suspicion. But Aoxue, don't worry, as long as the Yunxia Sect treats you well, then I will always be a disciple of the Yunxia Sect. But if one day, they treat you badly, that would be another matter." Ye Liuyun rarely showed a serious expression.
Lin Aoxue knew that Ye Liuyun was not just talking, and she suddenly realized that she must take the position of sect leader. Only by sitting firmly on the position of sect leader can she ensure the safety of herself and Ye Liuyun.
During her conversation with Yun Yun, she could feel that Yun Yun had her own thoughts, and these thoughts might not be a good thing for her and Ye Liuyun. So, as she said before, in this world, she could not completely trust anyone except Ye Liuyun.
Even Yun Yun, who had almost no faults with her, had to remain vigilant.
After experiencing the conflict between the two sects yesterday, she gradually understood that this world is cruel. For the sake of their own interests, the cultivation sects can do many things without caring about their lives and what others think.
After taking Ye Liuyun's pills, she also realized that Ye Liuyun's value was very high. If these pills could be used by the Yunxia Sect, then the strength of the Yunxia Sect would definitely be improved.
This is Ye Liuyun’s value, but once the news of Ye Liuyun’s powerful alchemy skills is made public, she will surely be faced with endless troubles.
Therefore, the best way is to hide as much as possible. If you can't hide, you have to think of other ways to ensure your own safety.
"I know, but Liuyun, you can be more secretive about your elixir matters in the future. But if possible, you can show your talent in alchemy. In this way, your status in the Yunxia Sect will gradually improve. As long as it's not too exaggerated, it's a good thing." Lin Aoxue said.
Lin Aoxue's words reminded Ye Liuyun that as long as she could control her alchemy skills a little bit and keep it within the range that a normal person could understand, then everything would be fine.
"Okay, I understand. Let's do as you say." Ye Liuyun nodded.
That was the end of their conversation.
Not long after, the magic weapon spaceship entered the Yunxia Sect and landed on the Yunxia Sect's martial arts field. Yun Yun asked the disciples to send the wounded to the sect's medicine pavilion, where there was a special place for the wounded to rest.
The disciples of the Medicine Alchemy Pavilion had already returned ahead of time. After all, the Medicine Alchemy Pavilion was a forbidden area and needed someone to manage it, so Yunxiao, who was in charge of the Medicine Alchemy Pavilion, led all his disciples back to the Pavilion.
Ye Liuyun was also a disciple of the Medicine Refining Pavilion, so he naturally stayed in the Pavilion to look after the wounded. At the same time, a large number of medicine refining tasks were also issued in the Pavilion.
In yesterday's battle, they had consumed a lot of pills and needed to replenish some in case of emergency. Ye Liuyun's opportunity to earn a contribution had come again.
So, she took on a lot of tasks, but after accepting the tasks, she thought about whether to attract Yunxiao's attention.
How to attract Yunxiao's attention? It's very simple. As long as Ye Liuyun deliberately improves the quality of the pill a little bit, it will definitely attract Yunxiao's attention.
Maybe Yunxiao would accept her as his disciple, and then she might become a direct disciple. The treatment of a direct disciple would definitely be better than that of an ordinary disciple.
"Let's do it." After making up his mind, Ye Liuyun chose to reveal part of his alchemy skills.
Lin Qingyou had no objection because it was Ye Liuyun's own choice. Ye Liuyun would not die anyway, so she had nothing to worry about.
Ye Liuyun began to accept a large number of tasks from the Alchemy Pavilion. With her speed in refining medicine, it would not take long before all the materials in the Alchemy Pavilion were used up.
But this is Ye Liuyun's own ability. The Alchemy Pavilion stipulates that one pill can be made with one portion of medicinal material, and she can use one portion of medicinal material to refine ten pills.
That is to say, she can use one medicinal material to complete the original consumption of ten medicinal materials. Why not? The saved medicinal materials can be used to develop her own new elixir.
Time passed slowly, and Ye Liuyun officially became a task maniac. She would take on tasks almost every few days. She completed tasks much faster than before. She had deliberately delayed before to avoid suspicion, but after talking with Lin Aoxue, she didn't plan to delay for too long.
Chapter 54 Revealing the Mountains and Dews
The medicinal materials in the Medicine Refinery Pavilion are becoming less and less every day, especially some essential elixirs in the Wheel Sea Realm, such as the Gathering Spirit Pill, Rong Spirit Pill, Hua Spirit Pill, and Di Spirit Pill. The materials for these four kinds of elixirs are almost gone very quickly.
The medicinal materials are running out, and the disciple guarding the Materials Pavilion must report this matter to the person in charge of the Alchemy Pavilion, Elder Yunxiao.
Elder Yunxiao is a middle-aged man who looks very elegant and gives people the impression of a scholar. He is checking the recent storage volume of pills in the pill storage room.
"Is the pill production volume these days pretty good? In just four or five days, why does it feel like the pill production volume is higher than in the past few months? Could it be that all the disciples in the Alchemy Pavilion are stepping up their pill refining efforts?" Yunxiao asked in confusion, looking at the bottles and jars in front of him.
After saying that, he grabbed a large bottle of medicine labeled "Gathering Spirit Pill" from the table with some confusion.
This medicine bottle is interesting. It is several times larger than other medicine bottles. It can probably hold hundreds of Spirit Gathering Pills. It is hard not to attract Yunxiao's attention.
Yunxiao opened the medicine bottle out of curiosity and took a look. It was not so bad, but he was shocked when he saw it.
"Eh? This pill?" Yunxiao quickly used his magic power to suck out a Spirit Gathering Pill from the medicine bottle and placed it in the palm of his hand and examined it carefully.
The disciple who was guarding the storage room nearby became nervous immediately when he saw Yunxiao suddenly show such a serious expression.
"This? Master, is there any problem with this pill?" the disciple asked.
Yunxiao did not answer immediately, but looked at the pill with surprise, because the pill was filled with a very strong pill light. Even he could not refine a spirit gathering pill of such high quality.
"Who made this pill?" Yunxiao asked curiously.
The disciple shook his head. He was only responsible for inspecting the pills sent from the task desk. He definitely didn't know which alchemy room made them. However, there were indeed several strange pill bottles in the past few days.
Every time this medicine bottle was delivered, it was a big bottle containing a hundred pills. When he received it, he was also puzzled. Who would put the pills in such a big bottle, and specially refine a hundred pills before sending it over.
Seeing that the other party didn't know, Yunxiao picked up a few other large medicine bottles and looked at the pills inside. The more he looked, the more surprised he was. There were a total of six large medicine bottles containing one hundred pills each.
Inside there were the lower-grade white elixir Juling Pill, the middle-grade white elixir Rongling Pill, the upper-grade white elixir Hualing Pill, the top-grade white elixir Diling Pill, as well as the lower-grade white hemostatic pill and the middle-grade white blood-activating pill for healing. There were a total of six large porcelain bottles and more than 600 pills.
Moreover, the quality of these pills is very high, and they are obviously made by an alchemist. What Yunxiao cares about is not these pills, but the high quality of the pills. The luster of these pills is the best among similar pills he has ever seen.
Yunxiao was just about to go to the task issuing desk to ask, as the disciples who received the pills there would definitely know about it. However, before he walked out of the storage room, a disciple came over.
"Master, the regular materials in the material storage room are running out and need to be replenished. Otherwise, they will be gone after three days at most." The disciple said respectfully.
This made Yunxiao wonder again. The materials in their material storage room were purchased in Yunhai City a week ago. The materials should be enough for three months. Even if all the disciples in the Alchemy Pavilion were refining medicine in the past few days, they should be able to last for another month. However, the current situation was that they would be used up in less than a week.
"Impossible? These materials were purchased a week ago. How could they be consumed? Did you see it wrong?" Yunxiao looked puzzled.
"Master, it's really almost consumed. If you don't believe me, just go and see for yourself." The disciple said in fear.
He was afraid that Yunxiao would say that he had embezzled money.
Yunxiao thought about it, and then hurried to the medicine storage room. After entering, the disciple immediately led Yunxiao to the storage box where the materials for refining the essential elixirs for cultivators were stored. Yunxiao opened the drawer and saw that there were indeed only a few days' worth of them left.
The same goes for the other drawers, because the medicinal herbs in them are all used to refine conventional pills, and the daily consumption is not small.
"So much was consumed? What's going on?" Yunxiao checked the other drawers where medicinal herbs were stored.
The result is that the supplies of all conventional medicinal materials are abnormally low, or the consumption rate of medicinal materials is very abnormal.
"This? Master, I have discovered something very unusual, but I don't know whether I should talk about it or not." The disciple who was distributing the herbs spoke up.
When Yunxiao heard this, he immediately asked him to explain in detail.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Yunxiao gestured.
The disciple spoke in detail only after receiving Yunxiao's order.
"During this period, I found that a junior sister came to me frequently to get medicinal materials, and the quantity she brought each time was not small. Sometimes, she came twice a day, and sometimes, she came once a day. I didn't think much about it at first, but now it seems that the large reduction in regular medicinal materials should be related to this junior sister." The disciple explained.
When Yunxiao heard this, he quickly signaled the disciple who was distributing the materials to go with him to the task announcement desk.
After searching in this way, they found Ye Liuyun.
"Ye Liuyu? Are you saying that the one who accepted a large number of tasks is Junior-Junior Brother Aoxue's sister, the girl who used the elixir in public on the martial arts stage last time?" Yunxiao was very surprised when he knew who it was.
"Master, it's her, Junior Sister Ye. She is very fast at refining the pills. To be honest, I don't understand how she makes the pills. She used to come several times a month, but now she comes twice a day. The workload each time is very large, but she completes it perfectly every time. In the past few days, she has almost completed the workload of dozens of people in a month." The disciple who issued the task explained.
After hearing this, Yunxiao was shocked. He finally understood that the person who used the extra-large medicine bottle to store the pills was Ye Liuyu.
"Interesting, this little girl is hiding something really well? She's actually a genius in alchemy? Since you discovered such a strange thing, why didn't you tell your master earlier?" Yunxiao suddenly asked angrily.
But the disciple who issued the task was very wronged.
"Master, I have already reported it to Senior Sister. Didn't Senior Sister tell you?" the disciple asked hurriedly.
Yunxiao was stunned again. It was very strange that his eldest disciple did not tell him such an important matter. He felt that there might be some secret hidden in it.
As for Ye Liuyun, she was still concentrating on refining medicine, but she knew that it wouldn't be long before Yun Xiao would come to find her.
Yunxiao first went to call Nalan Yan over.
After learning that her master asked her about Ye Liuyun, Nalan Yan no longer concealed it, but told Yunxiao about Ye Liuyun's extraordinary talent in alchemy.
Nalan Yan felt that this kind of thing was not suitable for everyone to know. If Ye Liuyun was really a genius in alchemy, then their Yunxia Sect should try their best to avoid letting this matter spread.
"I see. So, you only know that this girl has extraordinary alchemy skills, but you don't know the specific details?" Yunxiao asked.
"Yes, Master, in fact, the sect leader should have known about it, but strangely, she didn't ask about this matter." Nalan Yan added.
Yunxiao is not an idiot. After thinking about it carefully, he knew what Yun Yun’s attitude was.
Chapter 55 A transaction
But Yunxiao felt that Ye Liuyun wanted him to notice it on purpose. After all, according to Nalan Yan, Ye Liuyun was not like this before.
He had not blatantly exposed his talent in alchemy before, but it suddenly showed up in the past few days. There must be a purpose for this.
Yunxiao lowered his head and thought for a while, then smiled knowingly.
"So that's how it is. Yan'er, go and call Ye Liuyu to come over to me." Yunxiao said to Nalan Yan.
Seeing her master showing an expression of understanding, Nalan Yan was a little confused, but she did not ask any more questions. Instead, she followed Yunxiao's instructions and went to the alchemy room where Ye Liuyun was.
As for Ye Liuyun, she had medicinal herbs and pills around her. Today, she had refined two more bottles of pills and would hand them in for the task soon.
