C390 Senior Knows My Teacher?
"En, no objections." Hearing the old man's words, Zhang Fan understood. If the old man was going to save someone, they would definitely have to take something back, but Long Yu couldn't just disappear like that. Just as he was about to say something, the old man continued, "You still want to take this piece of Dragon Jade back, right?"
"Yes." Zhang Fan nodded his head.
"Alright then, can you give me the item you want to trade with this? Cultivation method, or medicine ingredients." The old man continued.
"No," Zhang Fan said with a wry smile.
"That being the case, you can leave. Your illness is fine now. You should leave Ghost Hand Valley as well." The old man waved his hand and said.
"Grandfather, how can you be like this?" The girl at the side anxiously said. Her beautiful eyebrows were slightly knitted, as if she was extremely angry.
The old man looked at his granddaughter, then said: "Alright, since it's my granddaughter, I can give you this dragon jade. However, you must agree to one condition of mine! "
Zhang Fan's gaze flickered. At this moment, he felt something strange. The old man seemed to have calculated something. He had calculated that when he told her to ask him to leave, the girl would have this kind of reaction, and he had to agree.
He really didn't like the feeling of being controlled by others, but in the end, he still nodded and said, "Senior, how about you tell me?"
The old man nodded slightly. "The first thing. Help me here for a period of time until I'm satisfied. The second thing, when you've finished the first thing, I'll tell you."
"But I still need to hurry and get out," Zhang Fan said in surprise.
"Is that so? Then you can leave now. I won't stop you." The old man looked at Zhang Fan with an indifferent gaze.
"Grandfather, how can you be like this? I'll ignore you from now on!" The girl said with extreme anxiety.
"Okay, I agree!" Zhang Fan took a deep breath. After thinking for a while, he finally agreed.
The old man's lips curled up into a smile as he continued, "You should be able to concoct pills, right?"
"Yes." Zhang Fan hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.
"What rank?" The old man continued.
"Fifth-grade." Zhang Fan said directly.
Zhang Fan's words caused the old man to be stunned. The astonishment in his eyes was obvious, including the girl, who looked at the old man and said, "Grandfather, you're still saying that I'm the most outstanding alchemist of the younger generation. I'm also a fifth rank alchemist."
The elder then gave a dry cough and gave Zhang Fan a weird look before turning to the girl, "Qianqian, that's because his soul power is higher than yours."
The girl lightly nodded as she looked at Zhang Fan with eyes full of curiosity.
At the same time, Zhang Fan also looked at the girl in surprise. Could it be that she was also a fifth-grade alchemist? While Zhang Fan was still confused, the old man slowly spoke up, "If that's the case, then I happen to have a fifth-grade pill that I need to refine. You can help me refine it, right?"
"Yes." Zhang Fan nodded.
"Qianqian, bring him over. Also, prepare a set of the Longyan Pellet ingredients for him." The old man said.
"Mm, got it, grandpa!" The girl nodded and looked towards Zhang Fan. "Then come with me!" After saying this, she brought him to the other side of the thatched cottage. In a side room, he saw a cauldron.
"Hold on here for two days first. I'll see if I can get that thing of yours out from grandpa. I'll give it to you when the time comes," the girl said in a low voice as she walked to Zhang Fan's side.
He did not expect her to be so kind. With a gentle expression, he said, "Thank you, young miss, there is no need to go through all that trouble. Logically speaking, I am also about to die, and to be saved by you all is also a blessing.
The girl did not expect Zhang Fan to say something like this. She gave an "oh" before lowering her head. After a long while, she raised her head again and sized Zhang Fan up. "That's right, what's your name? I'm Su Qian."
"My name is Zhang Fan." Zhang Fan said his name out loud.
"Zhang Fan, then I'll call you Big Brother Zhang from now on," Su Qian had a sweet smile on her face.
"Yeah." Zhang Fan nodded his head lightly.
"Then I'll go prepare the ingredients!" The girl turned around and left, leaving behind a beautiful figure.
Twenty minutes later, the girl returned. She then took out a ring and put it on her finger. She took out a portion of the Longyan Pill's medicinal ingredients. There were at least sixty or seventy of them.
Zhang Fan's eyes showed some surprise. At this time, Su Qian took out another brocade box and said, "Brother Zhang, this is the Draconic Conch Fruit."
She had grown up in the valley. Although her grandfather would occasionally take her to the Arctic City to buy things, the amount of people of the same age would be too few, so when she saw Zhang Fan, her eyes were filled with curiosity. She also wanted to see how Zhang Fan was doing.
According to her grandfather, Zhang Fan's soul force had already reached the sage realm and had reached the Core Formation stage. As for her soul force, it was only an earth-step cultivation. There was a difference of two whole stages between her and Zhang Fan.
Furthermore, Zhang Fan's pill refining skills were at the fifth rank as well. At this moment, she was truly curious.
Zhang Fan did not say anything at this moment. He sat down cross-legged and stared at the pill furnace as his soul power began to stir. As the cauldron's flame rose, he squinted his eyes and began to refine. He thought that it had been a long time since he had last refined one, so he was very careful this time, afraid that he would screw it up.
Cautiously and smoothly, Su Qian melted all the herbs within one hour's time. At this moment, astonishment appeared in her bright eyes.
At this moment, Zhang Fan's eyes were slightly flickering. Right now, all that was left was to compress and take shape, and merging was an extremely critical step. Therefore, at this moment, Zhang Fan's soul force suddenly became stronger.
Under the extremely strong soul compression, all the medicinal liquids began to fuse together. At this moment, the energy contained within the medicinal liquids began to fluctuate.
Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes. His soul power surged once again, almost as if it was forced to fuse together. Su Qian, on the other hand, opened her small mouth in surprise.
Ten minutes later, the medicinal liquid had completely fused together. However, Zhang Fan did not stop and continued for another ten minutes. Only after the medicinal liquid had completely stabilized did he heave a sigh of relief.
After that, he narrowed his eyes. His soul fluctuated once again, but it began to compress again. At this time, Zhang Fan also closed his eyes. His spirit was slowly compressing as he controlled the fire.
After about half an hour, the fusion of the fist-sized liquid and the medicinal properties of the elixir had become more substantial. The liquid was brown in color and the fragrance of elixirs had begun to permeate the air.
At this moment, the girl understood that the pill had basically been successfully concocted.
After about ten minutes of rest, Zhang Fan finally opened up the cauldron. A round brown pill floated in the air, emitting a faint glow.
"Here's a porcelain bottle for you." At this moment, the girl extended her hand and handed a porcelain bottle to Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan took the pill after reading it and placed it inside. After covering it, he stood up and handed it to the girl. "It's done. Take it."
"Hmm?" The girl took the pill and glanced at Zhang Fan. "How can your pill refining speed be so fast? Furthermore, you can even refine a high-tier fifth-grade pill."
"Control …" Zhang Fan hesitated for a second before he explained it to the girl. Actually, he also felt that it was very easy to control the girl. To be honest, it was because Old Man Qin had trained his control during pill concocting.
Seeing that the girl still seemed to not understand, Zhang Fan scanned the room and did not discover anything, but then thought of something, and took out a dozen daggers from within the world, opening them in front of him. Raising his head to look at the girl, he noticed the doubt in his eyes, and then laughed. His soul force started to fluctuate, and in an instant, a dozen daggers floated up, at this moment, Zhang Fan took a step back, causing the daggers to spin around him at a rapid speed.
The girl's small mouth once again opened wide. She looked very cute, but at this moment, the girl didn't notice anything.
"Big Brother Zhang, you're so strong!" At this moment, the girl couldn't help but say.
"What's so powerful?" An aged voice called out. When he walked in, he also saw Zhang Fan's current state. He was slightly stunned for a moment before he couldn't help but praise him.
When Zhang Fan saw the old man walk in, he put away his daggers one by one.
"Brat, who taught you these things?" The old man's eyes flashed.
Zhang Fan paused for a moment. "My teacher."
"Who is your teacher?" The old man couldn't help but ask again.
"My master's surname is Qin …" Just as Zhang Fan said this word and was about to say Old Man Qin's name, the old man suddenly froze. He couldn't help but burst out laughing. His eyes flickered as he looked at Zhang Fan and said, "Emperor Soul Sect!"
Zhang Fan's heart trembled slightly. His eyes revealed surprise as he said, "Senior, you know my teacher?"2
