Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Dan Tai Yuan Yu wore a semi-transparent snow-gauze veil embroidered with golden lotus patterns, her jade-like jawline faintly visible, though her full face remained unseen.

Her eyes were clear and cold, like an ancient temple by a deep pool, wisdom born of extreme stillness.

Her figure was slender as green bamboo under moonlight, shoulders like carved jade, waist like bound silk.

Her bearing was clean and spirited, lacking the soft charm common among female cultivators.

She wore a wide-sleeved flowing-cloud gauze robe, a small bronze bell hanging at her waist, a faint, barely perceptible scent of sandalwood surrounding her.

"Tan Tai Zhenren!"

"Senior Sister Yu!"

Xu Zhangqing had not forgotten the reminder from the burly man downstairs, so whether toward Yu Caiqing or Dan Tai Yuan Yu on the other side, his attitude was extremely respectful.

Who made him merely a Foundation Establishment Stage spirit farmer, while one was a genius beauty alchemist and the other was even a Core Disciple and Golden Core Great Master?

Yu Caiqing set down her teacup: "Finished?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "Yes, finished."

Yu Caiqing introduced to Dan Tai Yuan Yu across from her: "Elder Sister, this is the spirit farmer I told you about, the one who can cultivate top-grade medicinal herbs."

Hearing this, Dan Tai Yuan Yu glanced lightly, then asked: "Being able to cultivate top-grade spirit plants shows you have no small talent in planting; now whose team are you on?"

Any spirit farmer who cultivates top-grade spirit plants will be courted by Core Disciples.

Therefore, the person before her could not possibly be without a team.

Xu Zhangqing quickly answered: "Currently on Senior Brother Lingbi's team."

Dan Tai Yuan Yu suddenly understood: "That alchemist of the Pill Refining Pavilion, the disciple of Fu Dao Grandmaster Mo Zhenjun, the genius Li Lingbi with Three Spirit Roots Mutual Generation?"

"Correct." Xu Zhangqing affirmed.

Dan Tai Yuan Yu asked thoughtfully: "Since you've already joined Li Lingbi's team, do you still have the energy to provide medicinal herbs for my younger sister?"

Xu Zhangqing smiled slightly: "I have two mu of Second Grade Spirit Fields; one mu is specially used to provide spirit rice for Senior Brother Lingbi, and the other mu is used to plant medicinal herbs."

"Spirit rice?"

Hearing this, Dan Tai Yuan Yu asked as if confirming: "Top-grade spirit rice?"

At this moment, even Yu Caiqing on the other side cast a curious gaze.

Xu Zhangqing said seriously: "Yes, Second Grade Spirit Fields produce top-grade spirit rice."

Upon hearing this, Dan Tai Yuan Yu and Yu Caiqing couldn't help but exchange glances, both seeing a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

It seemed they had underestimated this Foundation Establishment Stage spirit farmer.

No wonder he could join Core Disciple Li Lingbi's team; he indeed had some skill.

Two mu of spirit fields: not only did one mu cultivate top-grade spirit rice, but the other mu also cultivated top-grade medicinal herbs.

At this moment, even Dan Tai Yuan Yu, a Golden Core True Person, felt somewhat tempted.

Ordinary spirit farmers she naturally looked down upon; spirit fields were everywhere.

But a spirit farmer who could cultivate top-grade spirit plants of any kind was very rare.

If Xu Zhangqing had not joined any Core Disciple's team, she would definitely court him, even poaching him was not out of the question.

But Li Lingbi was different; this person was not only a Core Disciple, but also a genius with Three Spirit Roots Mutual Generation, and everyone was looking forward to this person breaking through to Earth Grade Golden Core.

Once successful, Three Spirit Roots might awaken three types of Golden Core Divine Abilities; by then, strength and potential would be extremely terrifying.

For now, this person was in the limelight; Dan Tai Yuan Yu did not want to provoke him, so she smiled lightly: "Don't just stand there; sit down and have a cup of cool tea."

"Uh." Xu Zhangqing hesitated slightly.

Dan Tai Yuan Yu was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "I'm not thirsty."

What if she was just being polite; if he took it seriously, he might very well offend a Golden Core True Person.

What's more, the other party was Yu Caiqing's elder sister; one sentence could decide whether they would cooperate in the future.

If over a cup of cool tea, he both offended a Golden Core True Person and lost a Senior Alchemist, that would be a loss outweighing the gain.

Dan Tai Yuan Yu looked at his cautious and timid appearance and understood very well in her heart; after all, everyone rose step by step from Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment.

Therefore she did not insist, and continued chatting with her younger sister Yu Caiqing.

It was nothing more than about breaking through to Earth Grade Golden Core, and content regarding cultivation.

Xu Zhangqing stood honestly at the side, suddenly hearing a piece of news.

It seemed Dan Tai Yuan Yu was preparing to act as a matchmaker for Yu Caiqing, wanting to introduce her to her own master.

Since it was a Golden Core True Person's master, at minimum it would be an existence at the level of Nascent Soul Zhenjun.

Actually, Xu Zhangqing was very puzzled in his heart.

By reason, Yu Caiqing was so excellent, with very high talent in alchemy, and her cultivation speed was also not low; yet she had not become a Core Disciple, which was indeed somewhat unbelievable.

Exactly how does one become a Core Disciple?

What exactly is the standard?

Seeing they had chatted enough, Dan Tai Yuan Yu waved her jade hand, her whole person disappearing from the spot, leaving only a soft and tender voice sounding in the air: "That's enough for today; the Pill Appraisal Meeting is about to begin, I won't delay your matters."

Xu Zhangqing subconsciously looked outside; in the Seven-Story Shui Jing Ta where no one had been just now, Dan Tai Yuan Yu's figure indeed appeared.

It seemed she sensed the gaze from this side, and she nodded slightly toward him.

Afterward, the Seven-Story Shui Jing Ta, at extremely fast speed, transformed into a streak of light and fled into the distance.

Yu Caiqing put down her cool tea, stood up, and let out a soft sigh: "Let's go."

"Alright." Xu Zhangqing stepped aside to make room for her to go downstairs.

After she went down, he followed behind.

"Yu Caiqing?"

"Is this the famous beauty alchemist Yu Caiqing?"

"Who is that ordinary fellow beside her!"

As a beauty alchemist with considerable reputation at the Pill Refining Pavilion, Yu Caiqing drew attention wherever she went.

Whether they were from the Pill Refining Pavilion or not, they would actively greet her.

But Yu Caiqing ignored them all, not even glancing at them.

Bringing Xu Zhangqing, she went all the way from the street to the vicinity of the Dan Pavilion.

Here, there were even more people.

Heads were packed everywhere, very lively.

In the air, various smells of medicinal herbs and pills permeated.

Some smelled good.

Some smelled bad, even pungent.

Yu Caiqing introduced: "The Pill Appraisal Meeting is divided into the Outer Perimeter and the Internal."

The Outer Perimeter is this area at the entrance of the Dan Pavilion.

As for personnel, either they are other spiritual roots who come here to buy pills,

or they are Fire Spirit Root Apprentices who brew medicinal liquids themselves and attempt alchemy.

Of course, there are also some Junior Alchemists who want to make quick money.

But compared to the Internal, the Outer Perimeter is several grades lower.

Anyone who can enter the Dan Pavilion and participate in the Internal Pill Appraisal Meeting must at least be a Junior Alchemist who has refined Foundation Establishment Pills, or other spiritual root cultivators with considerable reputation.

If Xu Zhangqing came alone, he could only stay in the Outer Perimeter.

But with Yu Caiqing guaranteeing him, this time he obtained the qualification to participate in the Internal Pill Appraisal Meeting.

Squeezing out of the crowd, the two arrived at the entrance of the Dan Pavilion.

Compared to usual, the guards here had doubled.

Every one of their gazes was especially sharp, appearing very alert.

The Guard Captain recognized Yu Caiqing at a glance and said respectfully: "You are a Senior Alchemist residing at the Dan Pavilion, so there is no need to register."

Yu Caiqing pointed to Xu Zhangqing following behind her: "This is my Cooperative Partner, who wants to participate in the Internal Pill Appraisal Meeting together."

The Guard Captain said ingratiatingly: "Since they are your Cooperative Partner, of course there is no problem, please enter!"
