Chapter 2441: No Need

Chapter 2441: Chapter 2441: No Need

This group includes Xing Enyang’s junior disciple, while the others are younger disciples of Xing Enyang’s siblings. However, they are indeed all Pill Masters, with only Xing Enyang being an Immortal Pill Master, and the others being Divine Pill Master level.

"Alchemist Xing, are you... considering working at the Hongmeng Pill Tower?" Wuxia Immortal Venerable’s mind slightly stirred.

She and Jing Yan, along with other Pill Masters, have been waiting for over a month to render their services.

Currently, the Hongmeng Pill Tower has no external Pill Masters working, and the stock of elixirs is dwindling, making Wuxia anxious. Without Pill Masters coming to work at the Hongmeng Pill Tower, Jing Yan would have to find ways to purchase elixirs from other establishments. Yet, due to the influence of the Eight Gods Pill Sect, it’s now much more difficult for the Hongmeng Pill Tower to procure elixirs than before. It’s imaginable that ordinary forces might not dare to sell elixirs to Hongmeng Pill Tower, and even if some superpowers aren’t afraid of the Eight Gods Pill Sect, they might hike elixir prices significantly, making it unprofitable for the Hongmeng Pill Tower.

The recent booming sales at Hongmeng Pill Tower have made many forces engaged in the elixir business envious, and not a few harbor resentment against Hongmeng Pill Tower. These forces likely wish for Hongmeng Pill Tower to shut down.

"We do have this intention, but... we wish to meet the City Lord before deciding to stay. We’ve heard the City Lord of Hongmeng City is a High Grade Immortal Alchemist." Xing Enyang glanced at those beside him, then turned to Wuxia to speak.

"That’s no problem, I’ll soon transmit to the City Lord, he should arrive promptly. Pill Masters, please wait a moment here." Wuxia Immortal Venerable said to Xing Enyang and the others.

After leaving the room, Wuxia Immortal Venerable transmitted a message to Jing Yan.

Upon receiving the transmission from Wuxia Immortal Venerable, Jing Yan set aside his current work and headed from the City Lord Mansion towards Hongmeng Pill Tower.

In the room at the Hongmeng Pill Tower, with Xing Enyang and others.

"Master, is this City Lord Jing Yan truly a High Grade Immortal Alchemist? Rumors may not be reliable!" said a relatively young Pill Master, furrowing his brows at Xing Enyang.

"Whether he’s a High Grade Immortal Alchemist will be clear once we meet City Lord Jing Yan." Xing Enyang shook his head and said.

"But what if City Lord Jing Yan doesn’t let us leave? If he forces us to stay and work for him, we might..." said the young Pill Master, worriedly.

Even the Golden Toad Commerce couldn’t deal with this City Lord Jing Yan, what do they have to resist him?

"Since we are here, let’s make the best of it." Xing Enyang shook his head slightly and continued, "The world is vast, yet it’s hard for us to find a place to establish ourselves anymore. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have traveled millions of miles to seek opportunities in Hongmeng City, deep within Thunder Domain."

"Senior is right, since we’re here, we might as well see City Lord Jing Yan. If his ability in the Alchemy Dao isn’t outstanding, he won’t be able to fool senior’s eyes." said a middle-aged Pill Master sitting beside Xing Enyang.

As they were talking quietly, the room door opened again. This time, two people entered—the Wuxia Building Owner they’d seen earlier and a young-looking cultivator.

"Pill Masters, this is City Lord Jing Yan of our Hongmeng City." Wuxia Immortal Venerable introduced Jing Yan’s identity to Xing Enyang and the others.

"Greetings to City Lord!"

"Greetings, Senior Jing Yan!"

Xing Enyang and the others quickly stood up to pay respects to Jing Yan.

"Pill Masters, no need for formalities. I’ve heard from Wuxia that you all hold the Pill Master identity and intend to join Hongmeng City, correct?" Jing Yan said directly.

Here stood more than a dozen Pill Masters, and seeing so many, Jing Yan felt glad. If this group could stay, Hongmeng Pill Tower’s High Grade Divine Pills and Basic Immortal Pills would be resolved. Although maintaining elixir sales with just a dozen Pill Masters is challenging, it would temporarily overcome difficulties, and more Pill Masters would naturally join Hongmeng Pill Tower in the future.

Listening to Jing Yan, Xing Enyang and the others subtly exchanged glances.

Xing Enyang cupped his hands to Jing Yan and said, "Lord Jing Yan, we do indeed have this thought."

"Senior Jing Yan, we can serve Hongmeng Pill Tower, but... we wish to know if you are indeed a High Grade Immortal Alchemist. If not, we might not stay at Hongmeng Pill Tower." Xing Enyang’s junior disciple spoke stoutly.

This person was evidently straightforward, though somewhat afraid of Jing Yan’s personal capabilities, he stated things as they were. They were here for the High Grade Immortal Alchemist.

Jing Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at this person.

"What’s your name?" Jing Yan asked.

"I’m Song Chen, and this is my senior." Song Chen replied, pointing to Xing Enyang.

"Alchemist Song Chen!" Jing Yan chuckled, "I can tell you, I am a High Grade Immortal Alchemist. If you join Hongmeng Pill Tower, you will come to be grateful for such a choice."

"Senior Jing Yan, without proof, could you demonstrate your identity as a High Grade Immortal Alchemist? If you can prove it, we and our disciples are willing to serve Hongmeng Pill Tower." Song Chen said.

While Song Chen spoke, Xing Enyang did not stop him. What they cared most about was Jing Yan’s High Grade Immortal Alchemist identity.

Jing Yan’s gaze moved over the group.

"How would you like me to prove it?" Jing Yan asked with a smile.

"It’s simple, Senior Jing Yan only needs to refine a batch of Mid Grade Immortal Pill in front of us. Rumor has it Senior Jing Yan can refine Nine-star Primordial Spirit Pill, so refining a batch of Mid Grade Immortal Pill should be easy. As long as Senior can refine a Mid Grade Immortal Pill before us, we will believe." Song Chen suggested.

"If Senior is truly a High Grade Immortal Alchemist, you’ll know we cannot learn the elixir refining method just by watching, so Senior doesn’t need to worry about us secretly learning the Mid Grade Immortal Pill’s formula." Song Chen added.

"Haha..." Jing Yan laughed out loud.

This Song Chen is quite interesting.

"I understand your point." Jing Yan paused before speaking.

"You want to confirm whether I am a High Grade Immortal Alchemist, fundamentally to see if I can help you enhance your skills in the Alchemy Dao. Daoist Song Chen, am I correct?" Jing Yan said.

"You could say that!" Song Chen nodded stoutly.

"No need for me to refine Mid Grade Immortal Pills before you." Jing Yan gestured expansively.

Song Chen, Xing Enyang, and others’ expressions changed. If City Lord Jing Yan refused to refine elixirs in front of them, they had no ability to compel him, nor could they even speak forcefully.

"If Senior Jing Yan won’t publicly refine a pill, then... please allow us to leave." Song Chen said with difficulty, keeping his head low.

"No..." Jing Yan waived his hand, saying, "Since you came, don’t leave!"

Song Chen and others’ expressions changed dramatically!
