I Became the Alchemy Master by Picking Up Trash-Chapter 321 - 5: Extra (Part 5)

Li Xing walked over, gently holding Chu Yunyi’s hand, and said, "Chu Yunyi, if I were truly indifferent to you, I would rather be reborn through the cycle of reincarnation than take advantage of our three lifetimes together!"

"I don’t know what the future holds, but at present, I have you in my heart, and you surely have me in yours. Therefore, why not cherish the person in front of you and stop making those idle suspicions that only lead to misunderstandings?"

Having heard Li Xing’s words, Chu Yunyi, after repeatedly confirming that this was not an illusion, firmly grasped Li Xing’s hand, overwhelmed with excitement.

"Ah Xing, let’s get married!"

"Uh..."

This guy just thought he was heartbroken a moment ago, feeling utterly despondent, and now he dares to propose marriage; it seems there really is no misunderstanding left.

"It’s not appropriate. For cultivators to marry is a big matter, even if we have mutual affection, we must inform the family elders. My parents and relatives are far in the outer realms, and the Li Family Ancestor is in the Immortal Realm. Informing them might not be easy. Let’s wait a bit."

Chu Yunyi, still not giving up, said, "Then let’s get engaged first?"

"Hmm..." Li Xing lowered her head in thought. It’s not impossible, but before she could reply, a loud shout erupted from the Spiritual Pendant of Supreme Quality.

"I do not agree!"

The next moment, Chu Yunyi was blown away. Fortunately, he was well-grounded and managed to open the Defensive Wind Formation the moment he was attacked; otherwise, he would probably be spitting blood from internal injuries now.

A golden light flashed, and a handsome young man in a green vestment robe appeared before Li Xing.

"A mere little Tribulation Transcending cultivator dares to covet the Qilin Er of my Li Family? Who gave you the courage!"

The young man’s face was full of anger, ruining the elegant and immortal-like aura, but still undeniably a rare beauty, in no lesser degree than Chu Yunyi.

With a wave of his sleeve, the flames formed the shape of a five-clawed golden dragon, attacking Chu Yunyi again. Chu Yunyi’s eyes narrowed sharply, his Primordial Spirit circulating rapidly, and several Wind Ropes almost materialized, binding the dragon’s neck, claws, and tail.

The fiery dragon was tightly restrained by the Wind Ropes, unable to advance, roaring and spewing a tongue of fire towards Chu Yunyi. Chu Yunyi’s expression remained unchanged, the Unfettered Fan in his hand, wielding it as a sword, in an instant, the sword’s intent ran rampant, cutting the fire tongue and the fiery dragon into pieces, dispersing them without a trace.

The young man did not expect Chu Yunyi to break his magic, his face still unsightly but did not continue to make things difficult.

"So, it’s an Innate Holy Body; I underestimated you."

"Who are you?"

"I have nothing to say to you." The young man glanced at Chu Yunyi, then turned to look at Li Xing, the anger on his face melting like snow in spring, disappearing without a trace.

"Xing Er."

Li Xing looked at the young man, feeling a sudden inspiration, she bowed deeply: "Li Xing kowtows to Ancestor Zhan, wishing the Ancestor great safety!"

"Hahaha! Good granddaughter, stand up quickly." Li Zhan grew more and more fond of Li Xing the more he looked at her; she was the most promising child of the Li family since his ascension.

Chu Yunyi was dumbfounded: "An-Ancestor?"

"Hmph, you think you can call me Ancestor? Get lost!" Li Zhan threw out a bell-shaped Magic Treasure, enclosing Chu Yunyi inside it.

This Magic Treasure was extraordinarily sturdy and pitch black, but from the outside, it looked like a glass dome, and one could see every move the person inside made. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Seeing Chu Yunyi fumbling blindly along the inner wall of the Magic Treasure, searching for a way out, Li Zhan finally felt at ease: anyone coveting a Li Family junior is just a pig eyeing cabbage; even if this kid is handsome, he’s just a better-looking pig, so let’s lock him up for now!

Li Xing was a bit worried, softly pleading, "Ancestor, this—"

"Don’t worry, Xing Er, this is the Inference Beast Bell, specially used to punish disobedient demon beast mounts; it won’t hurt him. Let him stay inside for a while, and we, the grandparent and grandchild, can have a chat."

"Yes!" The Inference Beast Bell, Ancestor, you really don’t regard Chu Yunyi as human, do you!

"Ancestor, the Transmission Array of the Qianyuan Continent has been destroyed, how did you come here?"

"My true self is still in the Immortal Realm; what you see now is merely a wisp of my divine thought."

"Back then, I attached this divine thought embodiment to the Spiritual Pendant of Supreme Quality, for guiding the descendants in cultivation. Who knew that when the world changed suddenly, my divine thought embodiment lacked the nourishment of Chaos Qi, falling into a deep sleep. Not until you absorbed the realm stone of the Qianyuan Realm was I able to awaken."

"So that’s the case." Li Xing silently breathed a sigh of relief; luckily, the ancestor didn’t stay with her all along like a ’portable grandpa’, otherwise, seeing her toil for a few Crystal Stones would surely convict her of disgracing her ancestors.

"Xing Er, do you really favor that kid? Tell the truth to the ancestor, if it’s out of gratitude, the ancestor can give him more Magic Treasures and secrets, there’s no need to offer yourself. As for the Life and Death Contract, the ancestor will find a way to dissolve it, absolutely ensuring no harm to you, nor to him, how about it?"
