Dan Hall Elder Su Qinghan and Lin Mo’s plan!

“Huh? Is this…a moon cold flower?”

The voice was gentle and delicate, like a warm breeze blowing past his ear.

Lin Mo was startled and looked in the direction of the voice.

He saw a woman had appeared by the counter at some unknown time.

She was dressed in an elegant light green dress, with a few simple orchids embroidered on the hem. Her dark hair was tied up with a simple wooden hairpin, and a few strands fell by her cheeks.

Her skin was as fair as snow, her features exquisite, exuding the unique gentle charm of a woman from the Jiangnan water towns.

Upon seeing her, the attendant behind the counter immediately put on a respectful expression and quickly bowed.

“Greetings, Elder Su.”

Lin Mo was stunned on the spot.

Elder?

This beautiful woman, who looked only four or five years older than him, was actually an Elder of the Sect?

He dared not be negligent and followed suit, bowing.

“Disciple greets Elder.”

However, he was completely unfamiliar with this Elder Su.

Yet, anyone who could become an Elder in the Sect would at least be a Cultivator of the Spirit Sea Realm.

This meant that the seemingly young woman before him must be a powerhouse of the Spirit Sea Realm!

“No need for formalities.”

Su Qinghan’s voice remained gentle.

She first curiously sized up Lin Mo, then shifted her attention to the small, chilling flower in his hand.

“Disciple, may I examine the Spiritual Plant in your hand?”

Hearing this, before Lin Mo could react, the attendant beside him quickly leaned over and whispered to him.

“Senior Brother, Elder Su is an Elder of our Qingxuan Sect’s Pill Hall, and also the person with the highest attainment in the Dao of Alchemy in the entire Qingxuan Sect.”

“She will definitely know the details of this Spiritual Plant.”

Upon hearing this, a ripple stirred in Lin Mo’s heart.

Pill Hall Elder?

Highest attainment in Alchemy?

Goodness, he had run into a special talent!

He no longer thought much and decisively handed over the peculiar small flower in his hand.

“Elder, please examine it.”

Su Qinghan extended her slender, fair fingers and carefully took the moon cold flower.

She brought it closer to her eyes and examined it meticulously.

“The petals are crystalline, with cold Qi contained within. The ice patterns on it are naturally formed, neither too many nor too few, exactly nine lines.”

“The Spiritual Qi is abundant, and the medicinal properties are perfectly preserved.”

She observed and murmured softly, finally reaching a conclusion.

“Indeed, this is an excellent moon cold flower of superior age, one of the main ingredients for refining the fourth-grade Medicinal Pill, the boundary breaking pill.”

Su Qinghan’s explanation was serious and professional. After identifying the Spiritual Plant, she immediately returned it to Lin Mo, with no intention of claiming it for herself.

“boundary breaking pill?”

Lin Mo took the moon cold flower and asked curiously.

He knew nothing about Medicinal Pills, so he naturally hadn’t heard of this one.

“Hmm, the boundary breaking pill is a fourth-grade Medicinal Pill. Its purpose is to help Cultivators at the Peak of the Spirit Sea Realm increase their success rate in Breaking through to the Golden Core Realm.”

Seeing that Lin Mo didn’t understand, Su Qinghan patiently explained.

Afterward, she parted her red lips, seemingly hesitating for a moment, then spoke to Lin Mo again.

“Disciple, to be honest, I have been collecting this rare Spiritual Plant, but unfortunately, I have never been able to find it.”

“So, would you be willing to part with it and sell it to me? Don’t worry, I will not let you suffer a loss!”

Sell it to this Elder Su?

Hearing this, Lin Mo’s mind immediately became active.

The main ingredient for refining a fourth-grade boundary breaking pill, its preciousness went without saying.

If this item were taken to Tianyun City outside the Sect for auction, it could probably fetch an unimaginably high price for him.

However… a thought flashed through his mind.

He glanced at the young Elder before him, considering her identity as “Pill Hall Elder” and “the one with the highest attainment in Alchemy in Qingxuan Sect,” and a brilliant idea immediately formed in his mind.

Thus, he put on a sincere expression and spoke to Su Qinghan.

“Elder Su can just call this Disciple Lin Mo.”

“As for this moon cold flower, I can give it directly to Elder.”

Upon saying this, not only Su Qinghan but also the attendant beside them showed expressions of astonishment.

Lin Mo ignored their reactions and continued, “But this Disciple has a request; I wonder if Elder can agree to it?”

“Give it to me?”

Hearing the first half of Lin Mo’s sentence, a clear look of surprise appeared on Su Qinghan’s delicate face.

To freely give away a rare Spiritual Plant that could refine a fourth-grade Medicinal Pill?

This was no small sum!

She immediately became curious.

“Then, Lin Mo, what is your request?”

Lin Mo answered without hesitation, “Elder, this Disciple is quite interested in the Dao of Alchemy. I wonder if I could ask Elder to teach me?”

Yes, this was Lin Mo’s true purpose.

To be honest, he himself had no interest in the tedious task of constantly guarding a Pill Furnace and performing Alchemy.

But he felt that if he could learn Alchemy, he might be able to teach this skill to his younger sister, Lin Xiyue, who was far away on Blue Star.

Then, Lin Xiyue could pass it on to Great Xia.

There were always some Spiritual Plants on Blue Star. Even if the Spiritual Qi was thin and the medicinal power weak, if they could be refined into Medicinal Pills, their effects would surely be hundreds of times stronger than simply grinding them into powder and drinking them with water, right?

This was a strategic technology that could fundamentally accelerate the improvement of cultivation for all citizens of Great Xia!

Once successful, the cultivation boost it would bring him would absolutely not be comparable to a mere tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones.

“Ah?”

After hearing Lin Mo’s request, Su Qinghan was once again stunned.

She had imagined many possibilities.

For example, Lin Mo might use this moon cold flower as a favor, asking her to help refine some precious Medicinal Pill in the future.

Or, he might want to exchange it for a large amount of Spirit Stones and contribution points.

But she never expected that the request he put forward was to follow her and learn Alchemy?

“Elder, are you listening?”

Lin Mo, seeing her unresponsive for a long time, couldn’t help but remind her.

“What do you think of this Disciple’s suggestion?”

Pulled back to reality by Lin Mo’s call, Su Qinghan finally recovered.

Her gentle eyes re-examined Lin Mo, seemingly pondering the feasibility of this proposal.

A moment later, her slightly furrowed brows quickly relaxed.

“That’s fine, Lin Mo.”

“Since you wish to learn the art of Alchemy, I will do my best to teach you.”

She agreed.

For her, this moon cold flower was indeed very important.

Exchanging it for the transmission of Alchemy was not unacceptable.

“However, you would still be at too much of a disadvantage.”

Su Qinghan added.

In her opinion, a complete moon cold flower was priceless, while teaching Alchemy only cost her some time and effort.

This was not fair to Lin Mo.

“How about this, you come back to the Pill Hall with me first.”

After Su Qinghan finished speaking, she no longer lingered and turned directly to walk out of the Mission Hall.

Seeing this, Lin Mo quickly put away the moon cold flower and hurried to follow her.

Watching their retreating figures walking side by side, the attendant behind the counter showed an expression mixed with envy and gossip.

“Tsk, this Senior Brother Lin Mo is incredible!”

He muttered softly.

“A single moon cold flower exchanged for Elder Su’s personal guidance—this calculation is simply brilliant!”

“But…he wouldn’t be trying to pursue Elder Su, would he?”

A bolder guess emerged.

“Indeed, although Elder Su holds the esteemed position of Elder, she is only in her twenties.”

“To be a Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse at such a young age, with unparalleled talent and beauty that could topple nations, countless Disciples in the Sect see her as their dream lover.”

“Unfortunately, Elder Su usually lives a secluded life, either refining Medicinal Pills or Cultivating in seclusion, so they don’t even have a chance to get close to her.”

“Yet, this Senior Brother Lin Mo, who seems very unfamiliar, actually seized this opportunity and directly created conditions for private time!”

“Brilliant, truly brilliant!”

The attendant sighed and inwardly gave Lin Mo’s maneuver a thumbs-up.
