Ye Liuyun also thanked Lin Xiyao, "I wouldn't be able to refine a fifth-level elixir without the things you've taught !"
"Not at all! I feel you'll soon catch up to . When I compare myself with you, it seems I'm far behind!" Lin Xiyao said without hesitation.
"I may have so advantages, but when it cos to refining elixirs, you're definitely more suitable!" Ye Liuyun's words were sincere, not just humble ones.
"Don't forget to co and join us in refining elixirs!" Ma Tiantong and Jin Dayong reminded Ye Liuyun before departing.
Ye Liuyun and Lin Xiyao bid farewell to Master Yao and left the Hall.
"Why aren't you wearing the badge?" Lin Xiyao curiously turned to Ye Liuyun.
She had always been proud of this title, so she always wore the badge, especially after every upgrade which would make her excited for a long ti.
But she felt that Ye Liuyun did not seem too excited.
"I often need to fight, I might forget to take it off and lose it."
Lin Xiyao did not question further, just smiled to Ye Liuyun. "Let's go! al's on ! You gave so many Spirit Crystals last ti, now I can make use of them."
"Sure, let's make it your treat!" Ye Liuyun replied with a smile. As he was talking, his Divine Sense started to notice soone following them along.
Just by his actions, it was clear it was a guard. His walking style, concealnt were all military style - standing upright and walking in large strides, definitely not an ordinary martial practitioner.
"Mu Lianqing really sent soone!" Ye Liuyun secretly celebrated.
As they were talking about how interesting were the masters, they hurried to a restaurant, booked a private room, and ordered food and wine.
After everything was served, Lin Xiyao raised her glass to toast, "It's a relief that you ca back safely! I've been worried about your safety all this ti.
Today's toasting is both a welco for you and an apology to you! I'm sorry that I failed to keep my promise and caused you so much trouble,"
Lin Xiyao's sincerity turned her emotional, her eyes filling with tears.
Ye Liuyun comforted her, "It's in the past. I'm back now, right? Let's leave this matter behind. It wasn't your fault either, so stop burdening your heart with it."
"Okay! Let's toast to that!" Lin Xiyao said, and proceeded to empty her glass with Ye Liuyun.
She wiped away her tears. "You have no idea, I sent so many healing elixirs over on the day you left, but it was all too late! I kept worrying about this, what if I can't see you again!"
As she spoke, she took out the elixirs she had initially prepared for Ye Liuyun.
"I've been keeping these elixirs, to remind of you!"
Ye Liuyun laughed. "You really have no faith in , do you?"
"I've heard that it was dangerous. Many of the Lins couldn't make their way ho, even the stronger ones." Lin Xiyao laughed awkwardly.
Then, she asked Ye Liuyun to tell her about his experiences in the battlefield.
Ye Liuyun summarized his experiences for her and left out a lot of details before asking about her recent circumstances.
"Thanks to your help, my father's illness has been cured!" Lin Xiyao thanked Ye Liuyun, omitting other details.
"What's wrong? Have you been having a hard ti recently?" Ye Liuyun guessed she might have been going through so difficulties these days.
With a sigh, Lin Xiyao explained, "After you left, my master blad for not following her instructions. She ignored right after I finished preparing the elixir to treat father's illness.
So, I tried to grow spiritual ginseng as how you taught . It did work out but, it made my master even angrier after she found out!"
It happened that the youngest son of Emperor Nanfu, Mu Lianqing, pleaded her to take him as a disciple. She made my father to agree to marry to him, as a condition of agreeing to Mu Lianqing's request.
Then this guy would stick around every day and I couldn't get him away. He wouldn't leave when I'm at the Lins', things could only be better when I'm here at the Hall.
Ye Liuyun was not expecting that Lin Luoyi was getting Lin Xiyao to marry Mu Lianqing for this reason.
"So your father agreed?"
"She said it's for my own good, bonding with a stronger power could also make the family more powerful. Master's words has always been final in the family, and it's all her credit that the Lins could beco the way it is now. My father is just an elder, of course he did not dare to refuse," Lin Xiyao said helplessly.
"And what about you? What do you think?"
But if it involved with the spiritual ginseng, then he had to bother if he could. That's why he thought to ask Lin Xiyao's opinion.
"Of course I don't want to marry Mu Lianqing. I feel like he's just doing things for show. And I heard from people in the Alliance that Mu Lianqing is a scheming man.
But what good could my opposition do? My family on one side, and the royalty on the other. How can I fight them off?"
"The badge you got from the battle, it lets you bring friends over to the battlefield, right? Could you bring over? I don't want to stay here anymore!
I dare not go anywhere else on my own! It's better I die on the battlefield than getting tortured here like this!"
Ye Liuyun chuckled. "Are you not afraid of death?"
"Of course I am, who isn't! But I think my life is too tiring here. If I stay, I definitely won't be able to stand against them. But if I leave, they can't do anything to !"
"And what about your qualifications? You're leaving them? What about your Master?"
"The qualifications are lifelong, when I get stronger, I can change places and continue to make elixirs. As for Master, you know her. if I resist her, that would definitely sever my place as an Alchemist. I don't want to fall out with her. After all, she's the one who taught everything I have."
Ye Liuyun nodded. He knew that Lin Luoxi would do anything. She might even think that Lin Xiyao was betraying her and the family.
Ye Liuyun thought for a while, Lin Xiyao was willing to risk her life to bring him away from the family in the first place, teach him the way of making elixirs, and giving him elixirs, she was kind to him after all.
Now, Lin Xiyao would rather risk her life going to the battlefield than getting suppressed like this. He couldn't get over with himself if he didn't help her.
So in the end, Ye Liuyun decided to give her a helping hand.
