98: Chapter 99 Preparing to Leave
Of the three people in the great hall, besides Chen Fan, the other two Cultivators were a man and a woman.
The man had gray hair, was decrepit and old, and leaned on a cane; he was extremely excited about this Breakthrough.
The woman appeared to be a middle-aged matron, her face full of smugness.
"My surname is Luan, and my name is Luan Tiande. The three of you, first write down your thoughts on the Alchemy process."
"Yes, Senior Luan."
The three took out blank Jade Slips and tapped them lightly against their foreheads. Before long, their Alchemy thoughts and methods were quickly carved into the Jade Slips.
After Luan Tiande carefully examined them, he nodded repeatedly, especially when he saw what Chen Fan had written, which filled him with immense joy.
The other party's Alchemy approach was unique and ingenious, incorporating ancient Dao of Alchemy in a very clever way; even he, a Purple Mansion Cultivator who had been famous for many years, could not have thought of it.
"Not bad. Originally, this seat did not want to participate in this Alchemy Conference, but I did not expect that the Juniors of today would be so formidable."
Luan Tiande's face was full of satisfaction. After pondering for a moment, he slowly said, "There is a subsequent reward, which is to go to the back mountain to comprehend a supreme Cultivation Technique, but there are risks involved. I wonder how the three of you will consider this?"
"Of course, this is not forced, as there is a certain risk in comprehending the Cultivation Technique."
His gaze first fell upon the gray-haired old man.
The other party seemed to sense it and hurriedly said, "Senior, this Junior has wasted his life and is about to reach his limit, but I still want to take the risk and try to gain another Opportunity."
"This Junior is also willing." The middle-aged woman had a calculating look on her face, unable to suppress the excitement in her heart.
"Hmm, what about you?" Luan Tiande saw that Chen Fan was silent.
At this moment, an alternative voice echoed in the great hall, "This Junior has limited strength and has decided to give up."
"Give up?"
Upon hearing this, Luan Tiande was greatly shocked, and the other two were equally puzzled.
"Are you really going to give up? This stone tablet Cultivation Technique is an ancient object; as long as you can gain some comprehension, it will allow your Realm to improve once again."
Luan Tiande explained the pros and cons in detail, fearing that the other party would do something extremely regrettable.
"This Junior is aware of the risks. Currently, I am only at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment and cannot compare with the other two Fellow Daoists."
Chen Fan bowed and looked apologetic.
The reason for this was simply that he had already exposed his talent for Alchemy, and if he were to comprehend the Cultivation Technique as well, he would be completely targeted.
"Since that is the case, this seat will not force you."
After saying this, Luan Tiande motioned for the other two to withdraw.
After the old man and the middle-aged woman left, he slowly said, "I have heard about you and my Disciple Zhao Qin. I did not expect that you were actually her husband."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan was greatly surprised, his expression somewhat stunned.
"In the current world of cultivation, where people deceive each other, it is very good that you can be a low-key Cultivator. I have heard of the Qin Family; it is not difficult to achieve something there."
As he spoke, the door of the great hall creaked open, and Zhao Qin walked in slowly.
"Greetings, Revered Master."
"Husband, in front of Revered Master, you don't need to wear a mask." Zhao Qin hurriedly reminded him, fearing that such disrespectful behavior would cause displeasure.
After hearing this, Chen Fan hurriedly took off his mask, revealing his true face.
Seeing that the other party was so young, Luan Tiande was greatly surprised.
He smiled faintly and said, "Since your husband does not want to go to the back mountain, you should see him off the mountain. However, before leaving, I still want to make a deal with your husband."
"A deal?" Chen Fan was slightly startled.
"Your talent in the Dao of Alchemy is outstanding and truly rare. Right now, there are some Medicinal Pills that can just be handed over to you to refine. If you can complete them successfully, the benefits will naturally be yours, but the condition is that these Medicinal Pills must contain an ancient essence."
As he spoke, he handed over a Jade Slip engraved with detailed information.
Chen Xuan looked carefully and inwardly groaned, because what the other party requested to be refined were exactly the three types of Medicinal Pills refined during the competition.
The refining of these Medicinal Pills often required consuming a large amount of mana and was not easy to refine.
However, how could he dare to refuse to cooperate with a Purple Mansion Cultivator? Besides, having such a backing in the Sect was very beneficial for the future development of the Family.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly bowed and said, "This Junior is willing to refine Medicinal Pills for the Sect and for Senior."
"Good."
Luan Tiande saw that the other party did not shirk and nodded slightly.
"In the future, the specific handover matters will be left to you, Disciple. Now that you have finally reunited, this Revered Master will not waste your time."
After saying this, a purple rainbow flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Without the Purple Mansion Cultivator, the two immediately felt much more relaxed.
At this time, Zhao Qin's gaze was gentle, and a look of complaint appeared on her face from time to time.
"Husband, you owe me quite a lot..."
Chen Fan smiled sheepishly, stepped forward, and hugged her.
...
The next day was the Alchemy competition for Purple Mansion Cultivators; Chen Fan gave it up directly and did not observe it.
Now he already had his own Dao of Alchemy and did not need to deliberately learn the methods of others. Besides, as his Realm improved, the System would reward him with ancient Dao of Alchemy.
This action made Zhao Qin completely unable to understand.
You must know that for everyone who came, the biggest goal was to comprehend some unfathomable Dao of Alchemy from the refining techniques of the Purple Mansion Cultivators.
However, she did not ask too much. After the Alchemy Conference ended, she took Chen Fan towards her Immortal Cave.
"This is our child, named Zhao Rui."
The girl could already walk. Seeing Chen Fan arrive, she was not afraid, but instead became affectionate.
Chen Fan looked at the one-year-old girl, feeling great joy in his heart, but a look of guilt still appeared on his face.
"Actually, growing up in the Sect is not bad. The Spiritual Qi here is dense, which is of great help to future Cultivation," Zhao Qin comforted him.
"When I have a place in the future, I will definitely let the two of you return." Chen Fan did not think so, and a look of determination appeared on his face.
"Once you enter the Sect, your whole body and mind belong to the Sect. How can you leave easily?" Zhao Qin sighed slightly and shook her head slightly.
"I have wronged you." Chen Fan stepped forward slowly, gave her a gentle hug, and headed towards the bedroom.
For the next few days, the two were exceptionally affectionate.
Meanwhile, Qin Shan and Qin Yuan's expressions became increasingly ugly.
Having waited for many days in a row, they were already impatient.
It was not until the tenth day that they saw Chen Fan return unhurriedly.
"Elder Chen, your actions are too excessive. The Sect Disciples have driven us away many times." Qin Shan looked angry.
"It is merely ten days. Why didn't you two clan brothers find a place to stay at the foot of the mountain?"
"Hmph, you Matrilocal son-in-law, how dare you speak like this?" Qin Yuan frowned slightly, his hand touching his Storage Pouch.
Just when the two were being so rude, a gentle voice slowly came.
"Alchemist Chen, are you leaving so soon?"
The speaker was Bi Wenqin, her eyes full of reluctance and gratitude.
She did not know what method Chen Fan used, but the Miaoyin Sect was willing to accept her as a Sect Disciple, and the conditions were very favorable, without requiring anyone to guarantee her.
When she saw the two members of the Qin Family, her face darkened slightly, and she directly released a powerful Foundation Establishment pressure.
