“For 38 sets of ingredients, you only need me to refine 100 Overarching Heavenly Pills?” Duan Ling Tian was taken aback when he heard Tie Tai He’s words. He felt Tie Tai He was asking for too little.

“Does he think so poorly of my refining ability? Does he think I wouldn’t be able to refine that many pills with only 38 sets of ingredients?”

During Duan Ling Tian’s first try to refine the Overarching Heaven Pill, he only managed to refine three pills. However, if he tried again and with practice, he was confident he would be able to refine five pills or more. The success rate would only rise the more times he refined them.

Although Duan Ling Tian was happy to receive the surplus Overarching Heaven Pills from the Tai Yi Sect, he did not plan to cheat them out of too many pills. Therefore, he said, “I’ll 120 Overarching Heaven pills for you.”

Tie Tai He was shocked when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. In his opinion, Duan Ling Tian’s success rate of refining the pills should not be that high. When he had attempted to assassinate Huan’er, he discovered Duan Ling Tian had only successfully refined three pills. For this reason, he had only asked for 100 Overarching Heaven Pills. Moreover, he was also prepared to give some room to Duan Ling Tian to bargain. The Sect Leader of Tai Yi Sect had said that the lowest number of Overarching Heaven Pills Duan Ling Tian needed to refine was 80. He really did not expect not only did Duan Ling Tian not lower the number of pills he needed to refine, but he even said he would refine 120 pills! before after all of the information he had on Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, he had also said as long as Duan Ling Tian refined 100 pills for the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Duan Ling Tian could keep the surplus if there were any. Duan Ling Tian could have silently pocketed the 20 pills if he did not speak up.

“Duan Ling Tian…are you serious?” Tie Tai He inhaled deeply as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. “I know the success rate of refining Overarching Heaven Pills is extremely low… 100 pills might not be too much. However, are you sure you can refine 120?”

“Why? Guardian Tie, do you doubt my ability to refine 120 Overarching Heaven pills?” Duan Ling Tian chuckled. “Guardian Tie, since I’ve said it, I won’t go back on my words. Return in ten days, and I’ll give you 120 pills.”

Tie Tai He looked at Duan Ling Tian intently before he finally said, “Alchemist Duan, regardless if you’re able to refine 120 Overarching Heaven Pills in ten days, I, Tie Tai He, considered you a friend from now on.” He was a very straightforward man. Seeing that Duan Ling Tian was the same, he could not help but feel a sense of kinship.

“I am flattered.” Duan Ling Tian smiled.

At this moment, a familiar voice rang from outside the courtyard. “Brother Duan!”

Duan Ling Tian, naturally, could tell it belonged to Long Fei Yun, the Thirteenth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.

Before he could respond to Long Fei Yun, Tie Tai He vanished into thin air after he quickly bade him farewell. “Alchemist Duan, I will be back in ten days.”

“Come in.”

Upon obtaining Duan Ling Tian’s consent, Long Fei Yun entered the courtyard.

Initially, Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised to see Qiu Ling was not with Long Fei Yun. However, his expression froze when he saw the other person who had come with Long Fei Yun. “Qin Yu?!”

“Duan Ling Tian.” An expression of relief appeared on Qin Yu’s face as soon as he saw Duan Ling Tian. “You are okay… That’s good, that’s good!”

Duan Ling Tian asked Qin Yu to sit. He was so friendly to the point that even Long Fei Yun was a bit jealous since Duan Ling Tian had never been so warm with him before. At the same time, he made a swift decision to befriend Qin Yu from the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom to improve his relations with Duan Ling Tian.

“Thirteenth prince, please take a seat as well.” Duan Ling Tian finally remembered to invite Long Fei Yun to sit.

Although it was clearly an afterthought, Long Fei Yun was not unhappy at all. With Duan Ling Tian’s identity, he would not say anything even if he was made to stand the entire time.

Meanwhile, Qin Yu was shocked. Although he had heard from Chu Yan that the Thirteenth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was extremely courteous to Duan Ling Tian, he was still surprised when he witnessed it with his own eyes. When Duan Ling Tian had invited him to sit down first, he had been looking at Long Fei Yun’s expression. Regardless of how friendly Long Fei Yun was, he was certain Long Fei Yun would still be displeased since Duan Ling Tian seemed to prioritized him. However, contrary to his expectations, Long Fei Yun did not seem displeased at all. In fact, Long Fei Yun’s gaze seemed to have become several degrees warmer when he looked at him. When he turned to look at Duan Ling Tian again, he felt as though Duan Ling Tian had become a stranger.

Qin Yu was very curious about what happened and what Duan Ling Tian had encountered after using the Shadow Void Escaping Talisman to escape from King Qin’s Mansion. It was to the extent that even the Thirteenth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was so respectful to him.

For Duan Ling Tian, Qin Yu was his first friend after he had ascended to the Overarching Spirit Heaven. Although he also considered Long Fei Yun as a friend, it was a fact that their friendship was first built on mutual benefits. It was different from his friendship with Qin Yu. In his heart, Qin Yu was still slightly more important than Long Fei Yun. Finally, Duan Ling Tian asked, “Qin Yu, you still haven’t told me why you’re here…”

“I followed my uncle and the Emperor of the Cloud Rock Celestial Kingdom here… We have to bring 30 participants for the Wasteland Grand Contest. We have two representatives from the King Qin’s Mansion. You’ve met them before. They’re Chu Yan and Yang Jing,” Qin Yu replied.

“I see.” Then, Duan Ling Tian continued to ask, “How did you know I’m here?” He was surprised that Qin Yu was able to find him.

“Speaking of that, it’s all thanks to Chu Yan.” Then, Qin Yu recounted how he managed to find out Duan Ling Tian’s whereabouts and how Duan Ling Tian’s companion had killed the Sixth Prince of the Cloud Rock Celestial Kingdom.

After a long pause, Qin Yu seemed to remember something. He quickly took a portrait out and laid it on the table for Duan Ling Tian to see. “Duan Ling Tian…”

“This is…” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes widened in shock. He did not expect Qin Yu to possess a portrait of Huan’er in her full glory. Although it was just a painting, one could still see her unique charm and beauty.

Meanwhile, Long Fei Yun’s mouth was agape when he saw the portrait. He felt a slight stirring in his heart when he saw the portrait even though he was not a man who cared for romance or beauties. It was his first time seeing a woman this beautiful. She was so perfect that it was terrifying.

“How did you come to possess this portrait?” Duan Ling Tian asked with a grave expression. He had asked Huan’er to wear a veil and a hat to conceal her appearance after all since he knew it would attract trouble. He had allowed her to kill Sixth Prince of the Cloud Rock Celestial Kingdom and his two men since they had seen Huan’er appearance from the Floating Image Pearl. Since he had taken the Floating Image Pearl, he did not think he had anything else to worry about. He truly did not expect Qin Yu to possess a portrait of Huan’er. He could already imagine the endless trouble that would come their way if Huan’er portraits were circulated in Tai Yi City.

Currently, there were many people from the Three Major Celestial Sect of the Wasteland and high-rank Celestial Kingdoms in Tai Yi City. There was no lack of Celestial Dukes as well. Among these people, there were definitely many lecherous men.

“This portrait…” Seeing the grave expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face, Qin Yu immediately explained that the portraits were widely circulated in the Cloud Rock Celestial Kingdom. In the end, he said, “At this moment, the Emperor of the Cloud Rock Celestial Kingdom should have found out the woman next to you in a veil and a hat is the woman in the portrait.”

“The woman in the portrait is Miss Huan’er?!” Long Fei Yun who had just managed to tear his eyes away from the portrait was shocked again.

“That Shi Lei is a mad man!” Duan Ling Tian’s expression was extremely dark. He did not expect Shi Lei to reveal Huan’er’s appearance in such a public manner where most of everyone in the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom had seen the portraits!
