308: Qingling Holy Land

Soon, a week passed, and Lu Chen traveled diligently, successfully returning to the Green Spirit Holy Land.

The Green Spirit Holy Land is situated in the Green Spirit Valley, where Spiritual Qi is rich, and countless precious medicinal herbs abound.

The Old Ancestor of the Green Spirit Holy Land is a top-tier Alchemist. What Alchemists lack most are medicinal herbs; with enough herbs, it means countless wealth and resources.

Therefore, relying on the abundant medicinal herbs produced in the Green Spirit Valley, the Green Spirit Holy Land quickly rose to power, becoming one of the ten great Holy Lands on the Tianxuan Continent!

Not only that, but the Green Spirit Holy Land also established the Alchemist Alliance. To become an Alchemist, one must possess a license issued by the Alchemist Alliance.

Otherwise, no matter how skilled your Alchemy techniques are, they will not be recognized!

This monopolistic approach forced most Alchemists on the Tianxuan Continent to strive for the so-called Alchemist Rank and work for them.

Of course, the Green Spirit Holy Land is also generous. As long as one joins the Alchemist Alliance, they can obtain a large amount of resources each month by presenting their Alchemist Rank waist token.

Furthermore, if one is lucky, the Alchemist Alliance will even introduce business, allowing them to become a dedicated Sect or Family Alchemist!

Once this opportunity is obtained, it means that resources, women, money, and power will never be lacking in this life!

"I'm finally back! The Spiritual Qi here is so fresh!"

Lu Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath of the Spiritual Qi here, immediately feeling immensely satisfied.

How to describe this feeling? It's like someone who just passed through a smoking area and then arrived at a park filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.

"Senior Brother Lu! Welcome back!"

The Disciple guarding the mountain gate, seeing that it was Lu Chen, quickly bowed respectfully to him.

"Dispense with the formalities!"

Lu Chen smiled elegantly, then stepped into the air and entered the Green Spirit Holy Land.

"Senior Brother Lu is so handsome! I wish I could become like him someday!"

"Indeed! I don't ask to have his Alchemy skills, only to have a Junior Sister like Senior Sister Liu!"

Lu Chen's life made them incredibly envious; not only was he handsome, but he also possessed excellent Alchemy skills!

Not only that, he also apprenticed under Dan Emperor Luo Qingxue!

What was even more enviable was that Luo Qingxue's adopted daughter, who was also a famous beauty of Green Spirit, Liu Su Su, was also his little fangirl!

Unfortunately, they did not know Lu Chen's current situation; otherwise, they probably wouldn't think that way.

"Has this kind of thing started to become popular in the Green Spirit Holy Land? Do people now like to be cuckolded?"

Lu Chen naturally heard the conversation between the two Disciples clearly. When they said they envied him, Lu Chen's expression immediately became strange.

Envy him... how could they even say such a thing...

Upon returning to the Green Spirit Holy Land, Lu Chen immediately rushed towards a mountain peak without stopping.

Similar to the Tianwu Holy Land, the high-ranking members of the Green Spirit Holy Land also established mountain peaks as their residences.

However, the number was not as many as in the Tianwu Holy Land, as the Green Spirit Holy Land is renowned for Alchemy.

There are simply too few experts who are both powerful and skilled in Alchemy.

Stepping into a grand hall, a pungent and alluring fragrance immediately assailed him.

Amidst the flickering gilded candlelight, a beautiful figure lay casually on a jade couch, idly playing with her hair.

The woman's dark cloud brocade dress was half-slipped, revealing a section of her shoulder and arm, as smooth and lustrous as snow. Her dark hair cascaded like a waterfall, creating a breathtaking curve at her waist.

Her figure was excellent; even lying on her side, one could still see her full breasts gently rising and falling with her breath.

A slender waist that could be encircled with one hand, combined with rounded hips, formed an alluring curve. Her long legs were languidly intertwined, covered in black gauze as thin as cicada wings, appearing faintly visible in the candlelight.

This person was none other than Lu Chen's Revered Master, Luo Qingxue.

The fragrance just now also emanated from Luo Qingxue. Due to her perennial Alchemy, Luo Qingxue always carried a pleasant scent.

Of course, that was what laymen would say. As a Revered Master Alchemist, Lu Chen naturally knew this was fake!

That could only mean one thing: the fragrance on Luo Qingxue's body was inherent to her!

"As expected of someone hailed as the Dan Emperor! This figure, this beauty, no matter how many times I see it, I never tire!"

Lu Chen involuntarily swallowed. The reason he was able to restrain himself from making a move on Liu Su Su earlier was also due to Luo Qingxue.

After all, with such a beautiful Revered Master present, Liu Su Su and the like had to take a backseat.

Otherwise, he would have long since disregarded everything and directly taken Liu Su Su.

"You're back?"

The moment she saw Lu Chen, Luo Qingxue's eyes clearly showed a slight change, but she quickly concealed it.

"Disciple Lu Chen greets Revered Master!"

Lu Chen respectfully bowed to Luo Qingxue.

In his heart, Luo Qingxue was a sacred and inviolable existence, absolutely not to be desecrated by others.

Back then, because he awakened the Spiritual Furnace Sacred Body, everyone in his village was killed, and even his parents did not escape the calamity.

Later, thanks to Luo Qingxue's timely intervention, he survived and eventually became her Disciple, becoming a professional Alchemist.

Therefore, every time he saw Luo Qingxue, he was extremely respectful, fearing to profane her.

"Really! Chener, haven't I told you many times? When it's just the two of us, you don't need to perform these courtesies!"

Luo Qingxue smiled slightly. Lu Chen was always like this; she had told him many times about this issue, yet Lu Chen still went his own way!

Every time she brought it up, he would say a bunch of things that made her feel incredibly embarrassed!

For example, "Revered Master is my goddess; in my heart, she is an inviolable existence!"

And also, "These courtesies are necessary; otherwise, my conscience would feel uneasy!"

"Every time I hear these words, it makes me so angry! Being a goddess is enough! Why does he have to emphasize that I am his Revered Master..."

At times like these, Luo Qingxue would feel incredibly depressed, thinking it shouldn't be this way.

Indeed, Luo Qingxue liked Lu Chen. Over these past twenty-plus years, Luo Qingxue found that she seemed to have fallen for this Disciple of hers, who was also like a son to her.

She thought it would be a plot where filial piety turned into something else, but she never expected that the one whose feelings would change would be Luo Qingxue herself!

That was all because when Lu Chen was fifteen, he inexplicably dressed up meticulously that day.

Since that day, Luo Qingxue had a different feeling for Lu Chen in her heart!
