Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

"This is the Elixir you deserve. With your 'Cultivation Level,' if you take the Breakthrough Sect Pill, you should be able to break through to Douzong," Xu Ran placed several Elixirs into Yun Yun's hands. Among them, there were also a few Dou Huang Dan.

"Thank you," Yun Yun's eyes were filled with gratitude as she looked at Xu Ran. She hadn't expected Xu Ran to give her several Dou Huang Dan as well. This would be enough to help the Yunlan Sect cultivate a few more Douhuang strong ones.

She had worked hard for many years, yet it wasn't as quick as a few Elixirs from Xu Ran.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun felt somewhat helpless.

The influence a powerful Alchemist could have on the development of a sect was tremendous.

"Why thank me? We had a fair trade. I am quite satisfied with your performance these past few days," Xu Ran teased. Thinking of Yun Yun's special services over the past few days, he couldn't help feeling a bit high-spirited.

"You're not allowed to mention these things ever again, let's pretend nothing happened. Especially, you must not let Yan Ran know; otherwise, I won't let you off easily!" Yun Yun's face blushed, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Oh? I'd like to see how you won't let me off. How can you do anything to me? You're not my match."

"Even if I can't beat you, I won't make it easy for you. You... I am Yan Ran's Sect Master; you'll need my approval if you want to marry her. If you dare to offend me, I'll trip you up when the time comes," Yun Yun said, feeling slightly pleased with herself, as if she had caught Xu Ran's weakness.

If someone else had seen Yun Yun at this moment, their jaws would have dropped.

After all, as the Sect Master of Yunlan Sect, Yun Yun always maintained a calm, detached, elegant, and noble demeanor in front of others. Yet, in front of Xu Ran, she showed a charming side fitting of a young girl.

"How about that?" Yun Yun tilted her head high, her snow-white neck showing, like a proud swan.

"If you don't let Yan Ran marry me, then you marry me. If the disciple won't marry, the master must; at least one of you should. Also, I say, you couldn't possibly be interested in me, could you?" Xu Ran smirked wickedly. Master or disciple, he wanted them both; Xu Ran was just that bold!

"You!"

"I have absolutely no interest in you, so you can rest assured!"

"I won't talk to you anymore!"

Yun Yun gave Xu Ran a fierce glare, finding that she could never outtalk him. Especially since Xu Ran had such thick skin, no matter what she said, he would not be swayed.

Yun Yun stomped her foot and activated her Dou Qi Hua Yi, flying directly towards the direction of the Yunlan Sect.

Watching Xu Ran's figure getting farther and farther, eventually turning into a speck and then disappearing entirely, Yun Yun's heart felt empty.

"Damn it! I couldn't possibly have really developed feelings for him..."

Truth be told, the days she had spent with Xu Ran had been more shocking than anything else she had encountered in her life.

Was Xu Ran really a Seventh Rank Alchemist? Somehow, she felt that Xu Ran hadn't lied to her. Although Xu Ran was shameless and lecherous, it seemed he had never actually deceived her.

And why did Xu Ran make the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King willingly kneel and submit? Was it really just because of Xu Ran's strength? She was certain that even if the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King truly faced the threat of death, it wouldn't kneel and beg before an enemy like this. Such magical beast kings are extremely proud and wouldn't just beg for mercy so easily. Xu Ran probably had many secrets she didn't know about.

"Forget it. We can talk about it the next time you come to the Yunlan Sect," Yun Yun turned and looked back from afar. She had actually forgotten to persuade Xu Ran to join the Yunlan Sect. But now, Xu Ran probably wouldn't join any other powers, right? Even for Yan Ran's sake, Xu Ran wouldn't...

However, Ya Fei was from the Mitter Family... and there was also the Xiao Family...

Yun Yun suddenly felt that pulling Xu Ran into the Yunlan Sect might not be as simple as she had imagined.

"It's time to take Xian Er and leave," Yun Yun's business was settled, and it wasn't appropriate for Xu Ran to stay long, so he returned to Qing Shan Town to find Xiao Yi Xian. He wouldn't leave Xiao Yi Xian alone in Qing Shan Town now; the poison in her body required his suppression. Moreover, only by following him could Xiao Yi Xian quickly become stronger.

...

In Qing Shan Town, the total annihilation of the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps frightened all the local powers.

Any force capable of wiping out the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps could just as easily eradicate them. Xiao Yi Xian's status in Qing Shan Town had reached its peak. Everyone knew that a super-strong expert stood behind Xiao Yi Xian.

Those who had once admired Xiao Yi Xian now completely abandoned the thought. Compete with such a significant figure for a woman? That would be courting death. No matter how much they admired Xiao Yi Xian, they wouldn't dare to harbor such intentions.

There were quite a few mercenaries in Qing Shan Town who had come to Xiao Yi Xian for medical treatment, but now, not a single person dared to disturb her. This made Xiao Yi Xian somewhat helpless; she knew that even if she didn't leave Qing Shan Town with Xu Ran, she wouldn't have the same pleasant life she used to have anymore.

Nevertheless, Xiao Yi Xian still stayed with Xu Ran in Qing Shan Town for about a week.

The Thousand Medicine Pavilion had many low-grade medicinal materials, precisely the ingredients needed for Alchemy of First and Second Grade Elixirs, so Xiao Yi Xian had been refining elixirs these days.

With the inheritance of Xu Ran's alchemy techniques and after gradually becoming proficient, Xiao Yi Xian was even able to skillfully produce Third-Grade Elixirs. Xiao Yi Xian could now rightfully be called a Third Tier Alchemist.

And the Thousand Medicine Pavilion gained a large quantity of low-tier elixirs thanks to Xiao Yi Xian's extensive alchemy production.

These elixirs were garbage to Xu Ran, but for the Thousand Medicine Pavilion, they were treasures! Seeing Xiao Yi Xian become a Third Tier Alchemist in such a short time, the head of the pavilion was dumbfounded.

Not too long ago, Xiao Yi Xian was just a pharmacist at the Thousand Medicine Pavilion.

And now, Xiao Yi Xian had become an existence even the Thousand Medicine Pavilion could not afford to provoke!

A Third Tier Alchemist was a name known throughout the entire empire. And Xiao Yi Xian had only taken a few days to reach this level. If Xiao Yi Xian continued to progress at this speed, it wasn't impossible for her to catch up with the legendary Dan King Gu He in the future.

"Phew."

Xiao Yi Xian produced the final batch of Third-Grade Elixirs. At this moment, she was drenched in fragrant sweat, her jade hand wiping the sweat from her forehead, and a city-toppling smile appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's face.

"I can now skillfully refine most Third-Grade Elixirs. It's a pity that my "Cultivation Level" is too weak, otherwise, I would want to try producing Fourth-Grade Elixirs," Xiao Yi Xian stuck out her little tongue, feeling a mixture of happiness and frustration. Now, the only thing obstructing the advance of her Alchemy was not something else, but her "Cultivation Level."

Because she also refined some elixirs for herself while producing elixirs, Xiao Yi Xian had now broken through to the Dou Shi Level "Cultivation Level." Being at Dou Shi Level and able to refine Third-Grade Elixirs was already the limit. To progress further, she needed her "Cultivation Level" to increase.
