Chapter 1118: Is There a Sect of Gentlemen Outside the Realm?

Hearing Sun Wan's words, Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded, "That's right, it is that person."

Sun Wan shook her head repeatedly, "That person is much darker than Ku Dashi; your cultivation is still weak, so you don't know the details."

"It is rumored that that Alchemist has almost exploited the entire net worth of every Great Vehicle Stage Cultivator in our Youzhou."

"Many people secretly call him the Skin-Peeling Master."

Huh?

There's such a thing?

Wang Jianqiang's expression turned somewhat dark.

For the sake of Youzhou, he worked conscientiously and diligently at Alchemy.

Not only were those people not grateful to him, but they even gave him a nickname?

How detestable.

Had he known it would be like this, he would have definitely doubled the price of his Pills.

"What's wrong with you?"

Sensing that Wang Jianqiang's expression was a bit off, Sun Wan couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head with a chuckle, then gave a dry cough and said calmly, "The so-called Skin-Peeling Master is just a misunderstanding those people have about that Alchemist."

"In fact, that Alchemist is dignified in appearance, modest and approachable, righteous, upright and kind, friendly to others, extraordinarily handsome..."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's continuous, seemingly endless stream of adjectives, Sun Wan couldn't help but interrupt him.

"Have you met that Alchemist?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded, a look of deep reverence appearing on his face, "I have. Although I only met him once, that master's bearing was deeply imprinted in my heart."

"It has made me ask myself more than once, how could there be such a perfect, extraordinary man in this world."

"His existence is simply unfair to all men in the world; he is so perfect and flawless, making one feel both jealous and inferior..."

Watching Wang Jianqiang's infatuated expression, a touch of curiosity couldn't help but rise in Sun Wan's heart.

She suddenly also wanted to see just what kind of perfect person could leave such a deep impression after just one meeting.

After coming back to her senses, she shook her head, "However, even if that Alchemist has his own hidden difficulties and is not as exploitative, greedy, and selfish as the rumors say, the price of his Pills is indeed not low, even higher than Ku Dashi's."

"Rest assured, although that master's Pills are expensive because the method of Alchemy consumes a great deal, the efficacy of his Pills is strong."

"Moreover, he is especially righteous; if an acquaintance asks him for help, he will definitely try every possible means to assist."

"Moreover, he is particularly loyal; if an acquaintance asks him for help, he will certainly try every possible way to assist them."

Sun Wan's expression shifted, "Let Senior Xuan Ji help?"

The news of Xuan Ji's break with the Youyun Holy Lord had long since spread throughout Youzhou, and the fact that she was temporarily staying at the Beast Taming Sect was no secret.

Since that Eighth-Rank Alchemist was also at the Beast Taming Sect, perhaps the two had met, or even had some friendship.

Since that Eighth-Rank Alchemist is also at the Beast Taming Sect, perhaps the two of them have met, or even have some friendship, who knows.

Couldn't Xuan Ji just go find the Beast Taming Sect Master for help?

It is rumored that the Beast Taming Sect Master is good friends with that person; as long as the Beast Taming Sect Master is willing to help, everything will cease to be a problem.

Thinking of this, a strong sense of hope suddenly welled up in her heart.

Hearing Sun Wan's words, Wang Jianqiang's heart stirred, and he nodded with a chuckle, "That's right, although Ji Jie hasn't joined the Beast Taming Sect, her relationship with the Beast Taming Sect is now very close; if she comes forward, the Beast Taming Sect Master will definitely help."

Hearing Sun Wan's words, Wang Jianqiang's heart stirred, and he nodded with a chuckle, "That's right, although Ji Jie has not joined the Beast Taming Sect, her relationship with the Beast Taming Sect is now very close; if she were to step in, the Beast Taming Sect Master would certainly help."

Wang Jianqiang's response hit the mark of Sun Wan's speculation.

However, she did not lose her composure.

After a moment of silence, she said with a face full of hesitation, "Why are you helping me?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Because you helped me and my companions during the previous war. Although we could have been safe and sound without your help, your kindness is something Ye appreciates."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Because in the previous war, you once helped me and my companions; although we would have been safe and sound without your help, I very much appreciate your kindness."

She hadn't expected that an impulsive, subconscious act of hers would actually lead to such a good reward.

However, although she had received an answer, her heart did not become any lighter because of it.

Although it was possible for Xuan Ji to move that Eighth-Rank Alchemist through the Beast Taming Sect Master, this counted as a major favor.

The person before her was, after all, just a lover of Xuan Ji.

Would Xuan Ji owe the Beast Taming Sect Master such a big favor for his sake?

She was silent for a moment and hesitated, "Asking an Eighth-Rank Alchemist to refine pills is no small favor; will the Beast Taming Sect Master agree?"

Wang Jianqiang seemed to have guessed her thoughts and smiled faintly, "Do you think Ji Jie wouldn't beg the Beast Taming Sect Master to help for my sake?"

A flash of embarrassment crossed Sun Wan's face, "Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to insult you, it's just..."

"Senior, rest assured, I understand your thoughts."

Before Sun Wan could finish, Wang Jianqiang suddenly smiled and interrupted her.

Sun Wan's words paused.

Wang Jianqiang continued, "Asking the Beast Taming Sect Master to help is indeed a very large favor."

"But the relationship between Ye and Ji Jie is not as superficial as you think; if Ye speaks up, Ji Jie will definitely not refuse."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's confident tone, Sun Wan's eyes lit up.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's confident tone, Sun Wan's eyes lit up.

Just then, Wang Jianqiang's voice came again; the hope that had just risen in Sun Wan's heart instantly dissipated, and her heart sank along with it.

Just at this moment, Wang Jianqiang's voice came again, and the hope that had just risen in Sun Wan's heart instantly dissipated, her heart sinking along with it.

Wang Jianqiang pondered for a moment and sighed, "It's just that Ye's background is somewhat special, which might become an obstacle to this matter."

Wang Jianqiang pondered for a moment, then sighed, "It is just that my background is somewhat unique, which may become an obstacle to this matter."

Sun Wan was taken aback, her expression turning to one of focused listening.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head and spoke again, "Senior, you may not know, but I hail from a sect called the Junzi Sect."

"The sect's rules are somewhat unique."

"Junzi Sect?"

Upon hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Sun Wan was taken aback.

Immediately after, she looked at Wang Jianqiang with a face full of astonishment, "You actually come from the Junzi Sect?"

Wang Jianqiang was stunned for a moment, "Senior has heard of the Junzi Sect?"

No way, right?

Does the Junzi Sect really exist Outside the Realm?

He did not know if it was his imagination.

He always felt that after hearing the name Junzi Sect, Sun Wan suddenly became a bit more guarded toward him.

What is going on?

Just as Wang Jianqiang was muttering to himself, Sun Wan slowly nodded.

"Although the Junzi Sect is a hidden sect and very few Cultivators know this name, I happen to have heard of it."

Speaking to this point, she looked at Wang Jianqiang, her expression complex, "The Junzi Sect was powerful, and at its peak, it was not inferior to top-tier forces."

"It is just that..."

"This Junzi Sect has a pleasant-sounding name, but the Disciples within the sect committed every evil, especially enjoying swindling the female Disciples of various major forces..."

"In the end, it incited public anger, and five hundred years ago, it was besieged by several top-tier forces and completely annihilated."

"It is rumored that all Junzi Sect Disciples were wiped out; I never expected that one person would still be alive!"
