A few alchemists and artifact refiners were secretly plotting, using the Voice Transmission Technique, on how to deal with the white-robed immortal, while the white-robed immortal was busy refining pills and tools for others, completely unaware of the conspiracy.

After refining pills and tools for more than a dozen immortals in succession, he sat cross-legged behind his stall, slightly closing his eyes, preparing to rest a bit before continuing.

The "Junior Sister Qin" and the oval-faced female immortal were a pair of senior and junior sisters out for training. After arriving in a hurry, they queued behind hundreds of immortals.

Fortunately, the white-robed immortal was very efficient and quick at refining pills and tools, so they felt that they might have their turn before the Treasured Lotus Flower bloomed.

What they didn’t know was that the white-robed immortal’s divine sense had long focused on them and was firmly locked onto that "Junior Sister Qin."

Moreover, the white-robed immortal deliberately concealed his aura; otherwise, that "Junior Sister Qin" would have been able to sense him and recognize his true identity.

"Fairies, could you lend a hand?"

A moment later, the white-robed immortal rose, bypassed the stall, and under the watchful eyes of all, walked up to "Junior Sister Qin" and her senior sister, smiling as he asked.

"Upper Immortal, please speak."

In the Immortal Realm, alchemists and artifact refiners are noble and proud beings, and the white-robed immortal, who embodied both professions, was especially revered and respected by others.

Neither "Junior Sister Qin" nor her senior sister expected the white-robed immortal to speak to them proactively. Feeling flattered, they also found it strange, thinking that with their cultivation level being only first-grade Immortal King Realm, and not understanding alchemy or artifact refining, how could they possibly help this Upper Immortal?

The gazes of other immortals also fell on the two female immortals, and they discovered that both were exceptionally beautiful. Particularly the younger "Junior Sister Qin," who possessed an innate spiritual root body, radiated an extraordinary aura amidst her stunning looks.

A female immortal with unparalleled beauty and innate spiritual root is highly attractive; in the eyes of some ill-intentioned immortals, such a female immortal is an excellent "furnace cauldron" for assisted cultivation.

If that "Junior Sister Qin" had powerful immortal power, other immortals wouldn’t dare provoke her, to avoid unnecessary trouble. But since she’s only at the first-grade Immortal King Realm, among the hundreds of thousands of immortals around Treasured Lotus Holy Mountain, she’s considered one of the weakest, so many immortals couldn’t help but harbor thoughts about her.

Seemingly sensing some unfriendly gazes, "Senior Sister Qin" and the oval-faced female immortal showed signs of nervousness and edged closer to each other.

"Why are our senior brothers and sisters not here yet!"

The oval-faced female immortal muttered softly.

Those immortals with ill intentions heard this and thought, it turns out they have fellow disciples, which could be troublesome.

The white-robed immortal naturally also noticed some unfriendly gazes directed at "Junior Sister Qin," a sharp glint flashed deep in his eyes, then disappeared.

"As you see, fairies, my business here is too good, and I’m really too busy, so I’d like to ask if you could help with receiving and delivering some materials, and looking after the stall... I can offer you some reward, or unconditionally refine some immortal pills or artifacts for you. What do you think?"

The white-robed immortal said with a smile.

"Really?"

The oval-faced female immortal’s eyes widened, her gaze brightening instantly.

Junior Sister Qin looked at the white-robed immortal in some surprise, wondering how such a good thing could fall on her and her senior sister’s laps.

Some other immortals were both envious and jealous of the two female immortals, wondering why such luck couldn’t have come to them.

"Could it be that this white-robed immortal has intentions toward the two female immortals as well?"

Some ill-intentioned immortals thought.

"Of course it’s true! I’m sincerely inviting you to consider it!"

Under the gaze of the two female immortals, the white-robed immortal nodded with a smile.

The white-robed immortal’s smile gave off an innocent and harmless look, and his eyes conveyed sincerity. The two female immortals exchanged glances and felt that this opportunity was too good to miss, so they gladly nodded.

So they followed the white-robed immortal back to the stall, each taking on a role, one responsible for receiving materials for pill and tool refinement from immortals, the other for delivering the materials to the simple stone house, handing them over to the white-robed immortal.

Around the stone house, the white-robed immortal had set up an isolation immortal array, a wondrous and marvelous array that completely separated the inside from the outside, preventing any immortal from peeping into the scene within.

With the assistance of the two female immortals, the progress of the white-robed immortal in pill and tool refinement significantly accelerated.

As immortals left, one by one, content with their immortal pills and artifacts, the reputation of the white-robed immortal spread among hundreds of thousands of immortals, attracting even more to come.

A few hundred breaths later, five male and female immortals, dressed similarly to the two female immortals, flew in from afar, landing near the white-robed immortal’s stall.

"Aren’t those Junior Sister Lu and Junior Sister Qin?"

"What are they doing?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"They seem to be helping an alchemist and artifact refiner..."

"But... we’ve never heard of the two juniors knowing any alchemist or artifact refiner!"

"Don’t rush, let’s see first..."

...

Seeing the two female immortals busy picking up and delivering materials for pill and tool refinement, the five immortals didn’t immediately step forward to acknowledge them but observed silently from a distance.

The two female immortals sensed their presence, waved at them as a greeting, and then continued with their work.

The five immortals had cultivation levels of third-grade or fourth-grade Immortal King Realm. Upon hearing their conversation and knowing they were fellow disciples with the two female immortals, some immortals who coveted "Junior Sister Qin" immediately dismissed their wicked thoughts.

At dusk, the white-robed immortal, looking weary, emerged from the stone house, informing the queuing immortals that he would rest tonight and continue early the next morning.

Although the immortals who had queued all day felt disappointed, they didn’t leave. They sat cross-legged on the spot, waiting for the white-robed immortal to resume business the next day.

With some free time, Junior Sister Lu and Junior Sister Qin informed the white-robed immortal, then approached the five fellow disciples.

"Two junior sisters, what’s going on?"

The five fellow disciples gathered around them, curiously asked.

"The Upper Immortal asked us for help..."

Junior Sister Lu, quick with her words, cheerfully recounted how the white-robed immortal invited them to assist.

The seven of them were all from the "Golden Rainbow Sect," and among them, a fourth-grade Immortal King Realm male immortal, known as "Immortal King Jin Jian," was their senior brother, serving as the core of their group during this outing.

"Without any reason, why would he ask you for help?"

Immortal King Jin Jian glanced at the white-robed immortal and frowned.

Junior Sister Lu said, "I don’t know! The Upper Immortal said, by helping him, it’s not unpaid. He will compensate us, or we could ask him for free pill or artifact refining... Anyway, it’s a good thing, so Junior Sister Qin and I helped him!"

"Why is he... this nice to you?"

Immortal King Jin Jian muttered to himself, noticing a glance from the white-robed immortal constantly watching "Junior Sister Qin," and felt a jolt in his heart, a wave of anger rising within.
