"Senior Gu He, rest assured, within the three-year agreent, I will surely overco Xiao Yan and uphold the honor of our Yun Lan Sect," Nalan Yanran firmly assured, unaware of the changing expressions between the two.
"Well, with your talent, what is Xiao Yan in comparison?" Gu He outwardly agreed with Nalan Yanran's words, but internally held doubts.
Following the original plot, Nalan Yanran was destined to suffer a crushing defeat at Xiao Yan's hands in three years, which would be a great embarrassnt for Yun Lan Sect. To change this outco, he had to follow his own plan.
First things first, he had to win over Yun Yun! "Please have so tea." At that mont, Xiao Yi Xian ca to the pavilion with a tea tray, placing fragrant tea in front of the three and saying softly, "Senior Gu He, could this young lady be your newly accepted disciple?"
"Yes." Gu He nodded slightly, then introduced Xiao Yi Xian to Yun Yun, "This is our Yun Lan Sect's Sect Master. Co and pay your respects."
"Xiao Yi Xian pays respects to the Sect Master!" With a slight smile, Xiao Yi Xian politely greeted Yun Yun. "Xiao Yi Xian? That na sounds lovely and suits your deanor," Yun Yun smiled and praised.
"Thank you for your kind words, Sect Master." Xiao Yi Xian felt pleased in her heart but maintained a composed deanor.
"Little one, this is Nalan Yanran, your senior sister," Gu He continued, turning to Nalan Yanran and introducing her to Xiao Yi Xian.
"Xiao Yi Xian pays respects to Senior Sister Nalan," she said with a curtsy. "Senior Sister, no need for formalities." Nalan Yanran looked at the beautiful girl of her age before her and felt a sense of goodwill.
At this mont, Yun Yun suddenly took out a silver inner armor from her storage ring and handed it to Xiao Yi Xian. "Since it's our first eting, as an elder, I should offer you a token of welco."
"This soft armor is called Wind Spirit Armor, consider it a token of welco from ." Yun Yun smiled and said. Looking at the offered silver inner armor and then at Gu He, who nodded slightly, Xiao Yi Xian accepted it with gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Sect Master."
This scene was naturally observed by Yun Yun, who secretly praised, "What a well-behaved girl." Xiao Yi Xian's docility also generated a favorable impression in Yun Yun's heart.
Gu He sipped the tea on the table and then looked at Yun Yun, asking with a aningful gaze, "Sect Master, have your recent cultivation endeavors been smooth?"
Surprised by Gu He's sudden inquiry about her cultivation, Yun Yun's eyes flickered with astonishnt. However, considering her recent progress, she couldn't help but sigh.
"To be honest, Senior Gu He, I've been stuck at the Three-Star Dou Emperor level for a whole year now, unable to make breakthrough."
At this point, Yun Yun expressed so frustration, saying, "I think I might have hit a bottleneck." Hitting a bottleneck? Hearing Yun Yun's words, Gu He montarily froze, then inwardly rejoiced.
Encountering a bottleneck was a good thing! After a brief contemplation, Gu He savored the tea in his cup and looked at Yun Yun, saying, "Perhaps, I can assist the Sect Master in breaking through this cultivation bottleneck."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun subconsciously looked at Gu He, her face displaying surprise. "Senior Gu He, are you being serious?" Gu He wore an elegant smile and said lightly, "Have you heard of the Emperor's Supre Pill?"
"Emperor's Supre Pill!" Upon hearing this, Yun Yun was montarily stunned, then her face displayed astonishnt. "Senior Gu He, could it be that you can refine the Emperor's Supre Pill?"
As the Sect Master of Yun Lan Sect, Yun Yun had naturally heard of the Emperor's Supre Pill, a highly renowned sixth-grade pill in the realm of alchemy. When consud by a Dou Emperor realm expert, it could directly raise their cultivation by one or even two levels, with astonishing effects. The Emperor's Supre Pill was a highly coveted elixir among Dou Emperor-level experts.
However, while it was also a sixth-grade pill, the Emperor's Supre Pill was considered the pinnacle among sixth-grade pills. Although Gu He was now a sixth-grade alchemist, Yun Yun believed he might not possess the capability to refine the Emperor's Supre Pill. Moreover, the formula for this pill was exceedingly rare.
At least, Yun Lan Sect had never obtained any leads on the formula for the Emperor's Supre Pill. "That's right." Gu He displayed a confident smile on his face.
Pausing for a mont, Gu He continued, "Furthermore, I've obtained the formula for the Emperor's Supre Pill." "Senior Gu He, you've obtained the formula for the Emperor's Supre Pill as well?"
Astonishnt filled Yun Yun's pretty face. Gu He's words had stirred up a storm of emotions within her. After the initial shock, Yun Yun quickly reasoned that if the necessary conditions were t, and with the formula in Gu He's possession, all he needed were the appropriate ingredients to refine the Emperor's Supre Pill.
"If the Sect Master is unable to break through the current bottleneck, I can personally refine an Emperor's Supre Pill for you." At this mont, Gu He also spoke, confirming Yun Yun's thoughts.
With Gu He's confirmation, Yun Yun's excitent about the potential effects of the Emperor's Supre Pill beca evident, and she struggled to maintain her composure.
"I wonder, Senior Gu He, what level of confidence do you currently have in refining the Emperor's Supre Pill?" After a mont of contemplation, Yun Yun gradually regained her calm and looked at Gu He, asking with her beautiful eyes.
The Emperor's Supre Pill was a sixth-grade elixir, and the required ingredients for its refinent were undoubtedly extrely precious.
While Yun Lan Sect's resources might be enough to gather the ingredients needed for a sixth-grade elixir, if the quantity required was excessive, it could still strain the sect's reserves.
Yun Yun was concerned that Gu He might attempt to forcibly refine the Emperor's Supre Pill, which would result in a low success
rate and the consumption of a significant amount of precious ingredients.
Gu He's gaze swept over Yun Yun's delicate face, and he instantly grasped her concerns. He revealed a confident smile and calmly replied, "Rest assured, Sect Master. I am fifty percent confident in successfully refining the Emperor's Supre Pill."
"Fifty percent!" Upon hearing Gu He's answer, Yun Yun's eyes brightened, and her face displayed delight. In the world of alchemy, failing in pill refinent was almost as common as eating and drinking.
Even if an alchemist was highly skilled, they couldn't guarantee a hundred percent success rate for every elixir they attempted to refine.
Generally, seekers of elixirs would prepare at least two sets or more of ingredients to ensure that the alchemist could successfully produce the desired elixir. A fifty percent success rate was already a remarkably high figure for any kind of elixir.
"Sect Master, here is a list of the required ingredients for refining the Emperor's Supre Pill. If you're interested, you can gather the materials." Gu He handed Yun Yun a list.
