Chapter 460: Wei Yuan Comes Calling

~8 min read 1,520 words

Aotian and Aofanyu looked at Wang Jianqiang, unable to recover their senses for a long time.

The role played by the Perfect Healing Pill in the great battle to defend the city was almost no less significant than the restoration of the City Protection Array.

It could be called one of the two major factors that changed the course of the battle!

Never did they expect that such an important pill was actually refined by Wang Jianqiang.

In this way.

If one were to discuss military merit.

Aside from the person who repaired the City Protection Array and the City Lord, it would likely have to be Wang Jianqiang!

Seeing the two men with dazed expressions, having no reaction for a long while.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and reminded them, "Senior Brother Aotian, hurry and put the pill away."

The two heard this and immediately recovered their senses.

Aotian took the pill and looked at Wang Jianqiang with a face full of amazement, "Junior Brother's skill in Alchemy is truly shocking."

Wang Jianqiang smiled.

After accepting the pill, Aotian did not stay with Wang Jianqiang for long.

He left together with Aofanyu.

After the two left.

Wang Jianqiang walked into a room and began Alchemy.

Half a day later.

Wang Jianqiang, who was in the middle of refining a pill, suddenly heard a burst of violent knocking on the door.

His brows furrowed.

The person outside the door was knocking with great force.

If not for the layer of Array covering the outside of the house, he would have even suspected the door had already been smashed to pieces.

He flicked his sleeve.

He put the Pill Furnace away, stood up, and came into the main hall.

When his Spirit Sense swept over the person outside the house, a look of surprise could not help but appear on his face.

It was them?

His heart stirred, and the corners of his mouth lifted into a faint arc.

With a thought.

The door opened.

Immediately.

Six figures appeared in his field of vision.

The visitors were five men and one woman, totaling six people.

The person in the lead was a handsome youth whose cultivation had reached the Seventh-Order Will Stage.

Behind him.

Four youths had slightly weaker cultivation, but they also possessed Sixth-Order Will Stage cultivation.

As for the only woman, her appearance was exquisite, like a young girl, incredibly fresh and tender.

Her cultivation was likewise at the Sixth-Order Will Stage.

"Wei Yuan, what are you all doing coming to Wang's place?"

Wang Jianqiang looked at the six people indifferently.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's cold tone, the four men and one woman behind Wei Yuan furrowed their brows simultaneously.

Wei Yuan remained calm, his hand hidden behind his back gesturing subtly.

Seeing this, the five people's expressions softened somewhat.

At the same time.

Wei Yuan looked at Wang Jianqiang with a face full of smiles, "Junior Brother, I never expected you to be a Fourth-tier High-grade Alchemist, and one who can refine Perfect Pills at that; you have really kept this Senior Brother in the dark."

Wang Jianqiang's heart stirred upon hearing this.

The news that he was "Master Wang" was known only to Commander Yan.

Connecting this to what Aotian had once said about Wei Yuan having a close relationship with Commander Yan, he already had a guess in his heart.

However, he did not show the slightest bit of it on the surface.

Furrowing his brows, he said coldly, "How did you know about this?"

"Wei naturally has his own channels."

Wei Yuan smiled and then said, "But that is not important; what is important is that upon learning that our Great Wilderness Immortal Palace has such a powerful Alchemist Junior Brother, I am happy in my heart."

Wang Jianqiang sneered in his heart.

With a cold expression, he said, "Wang only knows a little bit about the knowledge of Alchemy; Senior Brother overpraises me, it is not worth mentioning."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Wei Yuan smiled, "Junior Brother is too humble. Nowadays, Perfect Pills have become a legend; if the news that Junior Brother can refine Perfect Fourth-Tier Pills were to spread, I fear even those Alchemical Grandmasters in the Immortal Palace would have to sigh in inferiority."

Hearing Wei Yuan's flattery, Wang Jianqiang did not reply, only looking at them indifferently.

He also had no intention of letting them into the house.

The scene suddenly became exceptionally awkward.

After the scene was quiet for a moment.

Wei Yuan gave a dry laugh, "Junior Brother, not planning to invite us in to sit for a while?"

"Sorry Senior Brother, I have been quite busy lately and have no time to entertain you all." Wang Jianqiang shook his head.

Wei Yuan's expression stiffened, and he forced a smile, "So that's how it is. It truly is unfortunate. Since that is the case, we shall visit another day; we won't disturb you further, Junior Brother."

"Walk slowly, I won't see you out."

Wang Jianqiang said indifferently.

Wei Yuan's face turned somewhat dark.

However, once he thought about how he still needed something from the other person, he immediately forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.

He managed a strained smile.

"Junior Brother, see you another day."

Having finished speaking.

He led the five people and flew up into the air.

Wang Jianqiang looked at the tender figure among the group, his Spirit Sense stirring.

He obscurely transmitted a message to her.

Xiao Keke was flying behind Wei Yuan, her expression somewhat cold.

Both she and Wei Yuan came from cultivation families, and the two families had been on good terms for generations.

She and Wei Yuan had known each other since childhood and held mutual affection for one another.

Later, they entered the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace together, becoming a celebrated couple.

The two shared an extremely deep bond.

Because Wang Jianqiang had made Wei Yuan so embarrassed earlier, her heart was already filled with rage.

If not for Wei Yuan holding her back.

She likely would have already attacked regardless of the consequences.

Just as they had flown about a hundred feet away.

A voice suddenly rang out in her mind.

"Little beauty, have you eaten too many low-quality Pills, causing your foundation to be polluted?"

"Do you want to purify it? Do you want your foundation to become stronger?"

"If you do, come find me tonight; I can help you."

Xiao Keke's figure paused, and she looked down coldly.

The next moment.

Her voice entered Wang Jianqiang's mind.

"You lecher, put away your despicable and shameless thoughts."

"Even if I, Xiao Keke, cannot recover my foundation in this life, I will absolutely never betray Brother Wei Yuan."

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, and he continued the voice transmission.

"If you are willing to come, I will agree to help Wei Yuan; otherwise..."

"I will absolutely not help him."

Xiao Keke's expression stalled.

"Ke Ke, what's wrong?"

"Why are you dazed?"

Just at this moment, Wei Yuan noticed Xiao Keke had suddenly stopped and looked at her in confusion.

"Are you worried that this Wang Jianqiang won't be willing to help us?"

Speaking to this point, he smiled and said confidently, "Don't worry, if this Wang Jianqiang is sensible, then fine; if he refuses a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then I have ways to make him obediently listen."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Keke's heart settled.

She nodded.

She paid no more attention to Wang Jianqiang and followed Wei Yuan as they left directly.

Seeing that Xiao Keke did not respond again.

Wang Jianqiang smiled indifferently and turned to return inside the house.

He continued Alchemy.

Over the next few days.

Wei Yuan and the others came to visit Wang Jianqiang several times, but were all ruthlessly turned away by Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang, meanwhile, secretly invited Xiao Keke several times.

All were ignored.

This day.

Wei Yuan and the others hovered in the air, looking down at Wang Jianqiang's residence, their expressions all extremely ugly.

This was already their fifth time coming to visit Wang Jianqiang.

Although they were turned away the previous four times, they had at least seen Wang Jianqiang.

This time.

Wang Jianqiang was clearly inside the house, but after they knocked on the door.

There was not the slightest intention of opening it.

He simply dismissed them with a single "No time to see guests."

It was truly rude to the extreme!

"Unreasonable."

"This little bastard is simply too arrogant."

"No matter how you look at it, we are Old Students of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, his seniors. When we come to visit, it would be one thing if he weren't flattered, but he actually dares to turn us away time and again. He shows absolutely no regard for the bonds of our sect!"

"Exactly, it's too much!"

Hearing the angry voices coming from behind, cold light flickered incessantly in Wei Yuan's eyes.

Suddenly.

He gave a cold laugh.

"Since this little bastard refuses a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then we shall grant his wish!"
