The knocking on the door continued for a long time before someone finally came to open person who opened the door should be the followers brought by Elder Wang Shanlin from Taihe Sect.
When the man in front of him saw Su Chen, there was some confusion on his face.
“Your Excellency is visiting us at night. Is there something urgent you want to ask our elders?
Elder Wang and Elder Qin are meeting guests now.
If it's not urgent, please come back tomorrow."
"Please tell the elders that I have something urgent to discuss with the two elders."
The attendant in front of him spoke politely and was not too offensive.
Su Chen's reply was naturally polite.
Hearing Su Chen's words, the follower nodded and turned back quickly.
After a moment, he quickly walked to the door and informed Su Chen.
“There are other elders from my Taihe Sect in the courtyard. If you don’t mind, you can come in and discuss this together.
If you only want to discuss matters with Elder Wang and Elder Qin, please come back tomorrow."
It seems that the people sent by Taihe Sect this time are very powerful.
Without much hesitation, Su Chen nodded and followed his entourage into the yard.
Knocked on the door.
"Enter."
After hearing the reply from inside, the follower pushed open the door.
There are four people in the room at the moment.
In addition to Wang Shanlin and Qin Wei, Su Chen also knew the other two.
Jiang Zhu and Yan You.
When they saw Su Chen, the four of them were stunned.
They never expected that Su Chen would suddenly appear here.
Wu Lan Villa came to cause trouble, and they all thought Su Chen would not come.
He should even stay away to avoid the people from Wulan Villa.
But the fact is, Su Chen not only came, but also appeared in front of them on his own initiative.
It took a while for Wang Shanlin to come back to his senses and he quickly stood up.
He smiled and let Su Chen into the house.
Su Chen didn't hesitate and stood up and walked into the house.
After sitting down in the house, Su Chen greeted the four people present.
Wang Shanlin and Qin Wei nodded and smiled.
But Jiang Zhu and Yan You next to him snorted in response to Su Chen.
Back when they were in Taihe Sect, they were both punished by the sect because of Su Chen's matter.
This time, I came here with the intention of suppressing Wang Shanlin and Qin Wei.
Unexpectedly, I met Su Chen along the way.
“Wu Lan Villa has used many tricks to deal with you this time, and it seems that they are sincere.
But my friend, you really shouldn't have come.
Fan Chengyan is still in Jin State, and none of the other powerful people who have reached the perfect state of transformation in Wulan Villa have come here.
But this doesn’t mean you are not in danger.”
After a brief greeting, Elder Wang Shanlin directly told Su Chen the news he wanted to ask.
Then he also began to suggest that Su Chen go and hide.
Obviously, Wang Shanlin did not expect that the person coming tonight would be Su Chen.
Jiang Zhu and Yan You are both here at the moment, which may directly cause some trouble to Su Chen.
"Let's go back first. When the limelight of this matter has passed, we can talk about it in person."
As he said that, Wang Shanlin wanted to push Su Chen away.
But at this time, Jiang Zhu on the side had already stood up and interrupted.
"Now that you're here, don't leave yet.
Today I have the opportunity to talk about some things.
If it weren’t for good luck, it would have been difficult to find an opportunity.”
Jiang Zhu's tone of voice at this moment was somewhat arrogant.
In the past, Su Chen had a very close relationship with Zhu Minggong.
To the outside world, he was an elder appointed by Zhu Ming Palace.
Relying on Zhu Minggong's prestige at that time, more than half of the forces in the entire Jin State wanted to please Zhu Minggong.
At that time, being able to make friends with Su Chen was naturally a great thing.
But now, times have changed.
The combination of Qilou and Liulige has weakened the influence of Zhuming Palace.
Zhu Minggong has not yet fully mastered the refining of many elixirs.
The jade pills produced by Zhuming Palace are better than those produced by Qilou and Liuli Pavilion for the time being.
But there are few types, and many pills can be refined by the other two companies.
Zhu Ming Palace just won’t work.
Due to a variety of reasons, Zhu Ming Palace is not as powerful as before.
On the one hand, Zhu Ming Palace was declining, and on the other hand, Su Chen was no longer valued by Zhu Ming Palace.
Then Jiang Zhu naturally doesn't need to be so polite to Su Chen.
Su Chen did not argue with him, but sat aside and listened to Jiang Zhu continue talking.
“In the past two years, our Taihe Sect’s support for you should be quite a lot, right?
Send two masters of the Transformation Realm here to help you protect this small sect.
This kindness is very good.”
As Jiang Zhu said this, he stood up and walked around unconsciously.
He continued talking as he walked.
“The favor was given, but our Taihe Sect didn’t get any benefit at all.
"Do you agree with this, Su Xiaoyou?"
As soon as Jiang Zhu finished speaking, Qin Wei next to him immediately stood up to refute.
"What do you mean you didn't get any benefit at all?
Just last year, the sect relied on the priority right to refine medicine to refine four or five jade pills in Zhuming Palace.
Isn’t that a benefit?
To get these benefits, is it not because of the privileges given by Su Xiaoyou?"
Qin Weiyi made a series of rebuttals and responded to Jiang Zhu.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan You next to him had already refuted.
“Elder Qin, those few ordinary jade pills are also considered benefits brought by him?
The few pills we asked for last year were all the most common ones.
Even if he didn't give us any priority, we in the Taihe Sect could still get these.
Even if you are flattering him, you should at least say something reasonable."
After hearing what Yan You said, Wang Shanlin was obviously going to refute it.
But before he could open his mouth, Jiang Zhu next to him took over the conversation.
“The sect’s meaning is actually very clear.
We in the Taihe Sect have helped you so much, and we won’t take advantage of you.
Just don't let us lose too much, and ask Zhu Minggong to help us refine a White Jade Qionghua Pill.
Don't worry about the materials, we in Taihe Sect will provide them.
The rest doesn't matter to you.
Given your current status and situation, it seems like you can’t do anything.”
"Okay, I'll take care of the current Wulan Villa issue, and then I can go with you guys."
Su Chen answered straightforwardly.
Baiyu Qionghua Pill is a relatively complex tonic pill.
In Zhuming Palace, this should be the most difficult jade elixir they can refine.
As for other more difficult elixirs, Zhu Minggong was not able to incorporate jade techniques into them.
Hearing Su Chen's answer, Yan You just shook his head.
“We can’t wait for you to resolve these issues at Wulan Villa.
If we let you deal with the things at Wulan Villa and you end up dead on the spot, we would be wasting our time.
Let's go now.
Help us get this White Jade Pill, and the rest will be written off.
You don’t owe us anything, and we don’t ask you for anything else.”
That's a bit strong.
Su Chen even heard other meanings from the tone of voice. He came here tonight, but it seemed that he was not following their arrangement and was ready to leave.
Yan You is still threatening himself.
"Can the kindness and resentment be wiped out?
White Jade Qionghua Pill, that would be fine too.
Have you two seniors prepared the medicinal materials for refining the elixir?"
Hearing Su Chen's words, Jiang Zhu walked out of the house.
Then he brought a bunch of medicinal materials.
The medicinal materials needed for Baiyu Qionghua are actually quite precious, but they are not so precious that they will not attract competition.
I can only say it is more valuable.
“The medicinal materials have been prepared long ago and were originally left here with Elder Wang Shanlin.
Wait until he meets you, take it out and come back to you.
Since this happened by chance, there's no need to seize this opportunity.
No more trying your luck at another time."
Jiang Zhu pushed the medicinal herbs in front of Su Chen and asked Su Chen to look at them.
While watching, people were also talking about some rumors.
These arrangements made by Taihe Sect actually reflect the fact that Su Chen and Zhu Ming Palace are no longer on good terms.
I don’t think Su Chen has any other potential either.
Even this White Jade Qionghua Pill was just for the sake of trying my luck.
The top leaders of Taihe Sect no longer think that Su Chen has the ability to ask Zhu Minggong to refine this kind of elixir.
Inside the house, Su Chen stepped forward and picked up the basket of medicinal herbs.
"Let's go, since the two seniors want it so urgently, let's go and refine it now.
I can't leave for the time being, I still have to deal with these things at Wulan Villa.
Tonight, we will handle it in Tiangang City."
Su Chen picked up the basket of herbs and prepared to walk out of the house.
In Tiangang City, there is naturally a pharmacy that refines pills.
However, the pills that were refined were all extremely ordinary pills.
Pills like Huili Dan and Huiqi Dan.
At this point in time, there should be no one else in the alchemy workshop.
Even if there is, Su Chen can also ask the Great Elder for instructions.
Just make room for refining medicine.
Seeing Su Chen's action, the four people in the room were stunned.
"What's the meaning?
Do you want to refine this White Jade Qionghua Pill yourself?
Do you know what quality of pill this is?
Not to mention whether you can use the jade elixir technique to refine it, whether you can refine this elixir completely is a big problem. "
Yan You had a look of contempt on his face.
Jiang Zhu beside him also smiled.
"Even if you need to find a reason or an excuse, please find a reasonable one.
If you don't have some relationship with Zhu Minggong, you will automatically learn how to refine pills.
That thing requires natural comprehension. If you had this ability, Zhu Minggong would have directly recruited you as a core disciple."
Faced with these doubts, Su Chen did not care.
"Seeing is believing. I'll know the specific situation once I try it."
Look at Su Chen holding the medicine basket and continuing to walk out.
Jiang Zhu's expression began to turn stern.
"You don't listen to my nice words, but I have to scold you a few unpleasant words before you listen to my advice?
We have already given you enough face. If we let you try the materials of the White Jade Qionghua Pill, it would be a waste of precious things."
Jiang Zhu had already said something extremely unpleasant about Su Chen's plan.
It even felt like a scolding.
Next to him, Wang Shanlin did not help Su Chen this time.
Instead, he began to persuade Su Chen.
It’s just that Wang Shanlin’s starting point is different from Jiang Zhu’s.
“The White Jade Qionghua Pill is not that easy to refine. Even the core members of Zhu Ming Palace may not succeed.
Don't be stubborn. I know this is a bit difficult for you.
I will go and explain everything to the sect.
When the other people in the sect asked us to come find you, their words were very nice.
How can you regret it now?"
While Wang Shanlin was speaking, he pushed Su Chen behind him.
Judging from his expression, he wants to stand up for Su Chen.
Qin Wei next to him was also facing considerable pressure.
But in this matter, his choice was consistent with Wang Shanlin's.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If you can't get the White Jade Qionghua Pill, then you can't get it.
Taihe Sect invests so many resources every year, but how many disciples can produce relatively good results in the end?
There are always successes and failures in sect investments.
If you try to refine the White Jade Qionghua Pill by force, it will be a bit troublesome.
It would be even more difficult for the sect to justify wasting these precious medicinal materials prepared by Taihe Sect."
Qin Wei's words were also straightforward and direct.
This is to tell Su Chen not to worry too much and not to be under too much pressure.
In addition, he actually didn't think Su Chen could refine this pill.
I even felt that Su Chen was just being angry and making a fuss.
After hearing this, Su Chen remained firm.
“Elder Wang, Elder Qin, I believe I know a little bit about elixirs.
Let me try it this time.
If the refining fails, I will keep my promise and go to Zhuming Palace to help get a White Jade Qionghua Pill."
Su Chen's words were considered to be a challenge.
I insist on trying to refine this White Jade Qionghua Pill myself.
Seeing this, Yan You snorted a few times, but there was a little more smile on his face.
"Okay, since you've asked me to do so, I'll be more direct with you.
What you want to refine is not just a simple White Jade Qionghua Pill.
Instead, one needs to use the jade elixir refining technique to refine the Jade White Jade Qionghua Pill.
If you succeed, we will accept everything we said before.
And Elder Jiang Zhu and I are here to help you guard the place for another two years."
Yan You looked at Su Chen, and there was actually a lot of teasing in the tone of his voice.
“But if you fail, come back with us tonight and find Zhu Ming Palace.
Compensate us with the Baiyu Qionghua Pill.
In addition, no matter whether you have something to do or not, please don’t come to our Taihe Sect in the future.
There is no communication between us at all.”
Su Chen nodded and didn't argue with them.
Elder Wang Shanlin and Elder Qin Wei next to them, on the contrary, kept waving their hands.
They were helping Su Chen to refuse.
"Su Xiaoyou, stop messing around!
Your relationship with Zhu Minggong is not as close as before. Things are different now.
Many things that were useful in the past may be meaningless now.
Even if Zhu Minggong agrees, it might be your last favor.
There is no need to ask for a White Jade Qionghua Pill for this favor."
Wang Shanlin tried to persuade Su Chen, but Su Chen still calmly told him not to worry.
During the conversation, Su Chen picked up the medicine basket again.
A group of five people went to the Tiangang City Alchemy Shop.
Compared to other sects, the alchemy workshop in Tiangang City is not a place with strict surveillance.
There are not even as many patrols as in other places.
There is no way. The value of the products produced by Tiangang City’s alchemy workshop is too low.
Many ordinary warriors would not have the intention to steal such things.
The value is low and if you get caught it will ruin your reputation.
Therefore, over the years, the alchemy workshop in Tiangang City has basically been left unattended.
I feel the supervision level is about the same as that of the kitchen. (End of this chapter)
