Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes

Chapter 571 - 578: Eating Grapes Without Spitting Out the Skins! (7/10)



Many Practitioners nowadays used Origin-locking Dan as a substitute for the Dingyuan Pill. Although its effectiveness was somewhat diminished in comparison, Origin-locking Dan was favored because it was easier to create, its required ingredients were common, and it had a higher success rate in creation, which made it quite popular among Practitioners.

However, if given the choice, all Practitioners would prefer the Dingyuan Pill. In terms of effectiveness, the Dingyuan Pill was far more powerful than the Origin-locking Dan.

Only a few people knew that the Dingyuan Pill played an essential role for the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain. It activated a certain Cultivation Method in the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain. After taking a Dingyuan Pill, the disciples of the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain could cultivate at an extremely fast rate. This was one of the reasons why the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain leadership position within the Sacred Land was unshakable.

Half an hour later, GuanGuan returned. But what surprised everyone was the big crowd that followed her back.

Yang Zhen was dumbfounded as he watched an excited crowd of elderly men and women following GuanGuan. Seeing this, Jian Cat slipped back and disappeared before anyone noticed.

Behind the group of elderly men and women followed a group of young practitioners from the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, among whom was Ji Yourong. Ji Yourong looked calm and stunning. Upon seeing Yang Zhen, she abruptly changed her expression and gave Yang Zhen a strange look.

Yang Zhen winked at Ji Yourong and pretended not to know her while standing amidst the crowd.

Suppressing her laughter, Ji Yourong quickly returned to her calm demeanor, leaving the disciples of the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain bewildered.

“Which one of you is the young friend, Yang Kaixin?”

From among the elderly group, an old woman stepped forward. She looked kindly at everyone and asked humorously.

GuanGuan and the young disciples were arranging apparatus and alchemy materials. Hearing the old woman’s word, they glanced at Yang Zhen and then lowered their heads to continue their tasks, leaving Yang Zhen forced to smile wryly.

Seeing how naive GuanGuan was in worldly affairs, Yang Zhen had no choice but to introduce himself, “This junior is Yang Kaixin…nice to… nice to meet you, elder.”

Ji Yourong held back her laughter, maintained a straight face, walked to the old woman’s side, and whispered,” This is Elder Mei, the head of Mei Peak from the Holy Domain.”

Yang Zhen’s eyes widened.”Mei Chaofeng?”

“How dare you, to call Elder Mei by her personal name directly, don’t you know any manners?”

An old man standing behind Mei Chaofen berated immediately, looking furious.

Even Ji Yourong looked surprised at Yang Zhen, seemingly not expecting such a strong reaction.

Yang Zhen gave an embarrassed laugh and said,” Elderly seniors, please don’t take offence. The name of Elder Mei is renowned; it slipped out of my mouth in my surprise, no disrespect intended.”

His words weren’t false at all, as the name Mei Chaofeng was truly astounding.

Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, all of the disciples from the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain exchanged strange looks.

Ji Yourong looked at Yang Zhen with confusion. After a while, she suppressed her laughter and said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile,” Elder Mei leads a simple life and has never left the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain. Where did you hear her renowned name?”

Yang Zhen secretly shot Ji Yourong a glance, surprised that even this big-eyed sister could be so naughty.

She wants to see me make a fool of myself, does she?

Yang Zhen laughed it off,”Let’s not worry about these minor details. Elder Mei, may I know why you’re looking for me?”

Elder Mei seemingly didn’t take the pleasantries seriously. Hearing this, she smiled and said, “I’ve heard from Miss GuanGuan that a few words from young Yang greatly enlightened her and even hold the potential to solve the long-standing problem of the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain. So, I came to see for myself, and young Yang Kaixin indeed looks extraordinary.”

“You flatter me, you flatter me!” Yang Zhen wore a dumbfounded expression as he took in the grand spectacle before him, feeling somewhat overwhelmed.

Did a Dingyuan Pill really necessitate the head elder leading so many people over?

Many older and stronger figures from Plum Blossom Sky stepped forward to exchange pleasantries with Elder Mei, chuckling as they said, “It seems Miss GuanGuan is very confident this time, and has even managed to involve Elder Mei of Mei Peak. This is truly delightful and cause for celebration.”

Elder Mei sporadically conversed with everyone while her gaze kept drifting towards Yang Zhen, as if he had grown an extra head, standing out from the crowd.

Yang Zhen had been trying to signal Ji Yourong, but there was no chance for him to question her alone.

What in the world was going on here? With all these people, if someone recognized him, how would they figure out what the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain was up to?

Thankfully, out of the people Elder Mei had brought, aside from Ji Yourong, Yang Zhen did not recognize anyone else, so he should’ve been safe from recognition.

At this moment, GuanGuan had reset the Aged Gold Soil Pill Furnace, placing piles of materials categorically aside. She took a deep breath, ignored the others, and began her pill concoction.

Yang Zhen put all his other thoughts aside, watching GuanGuan concoct her pill with curiosity.

Encountering such an innocent Alchemy Grandmaster was not easy. Watching such an unconventional pill concoction method from such a close range was even rarer.

Yang Zhen wasn’t arrogant enough to think his pill-making method was superior to everyone else’s, so he put aside his scattered thoughts and watched every action of GuanGuan keenly.

The others were no different from Yang Zhen, all intently watching every action of GuanGuan, and especially the disciples Elder Mei had brought. They couldn’t tear their eyes away and cast aside their inner distractions. They had reached a meditative state where self and material were forgotten, completely engrossed in observing GuanGuan concoct her pill.

Unconsciously, Ji Yourong made her way to Yang Zhen’s side, glancing left and right as if searching for something.

Yang Zhen’s gaze gave her the hint, there was no need to look further, the cat had gone into hiding.

The shifty cat was no ordinary feline beast. While others couldn’t tell, Elder Mei, as an elder, would have been able to recognize it at once. This was the reason the shifty cat took off at the very beginning.

As for where the shifty cat had gone, even Yang Zhen did not know. The cat wasn’t interested in pill-making. Whenever Yang Zhen was decocting a Dan soup in the past, the shifty cat would not wake up, or return, until the decoction was complete.

Ji Yourong looked slightly surprised, her face turned an odd color. It came as a surprise to her that Yang Zhen could read her mind at a single glance. She frowned slightly.

Yang Zhen blinked, understanding what Ji Yourong meant. She was asking why he was here.

It was at that moment that Yang Zhen truly understood why it was said that one’s eyes could communicate. Ji Yourong’s large eyes were indeed expressive, like sapphire, pure and translucent, with a unique charm ingrained within.

Yang Zhen glanced at Ji Yourongs’s slender waist, the meaning was obvious.

Why he was here, Ji Yourong should have known better than him. After all, the little wooden medallion that Ji Yourong had given him was something he’d seen her wear around her waist.

Upon catching Yang Zhen’s eye, Ji Yourong unconsciously took half a step back, looked surprised, then was momentarily stunned as she looked at Yang Zhen.

As Yang Zhen and Ji Yourong’s “eye dialogue” was happening on the side, everyone else was focused on GuanGuan concocting her pill. Only Young Master Tian was closely watching Yang Zhen and Ji Yourong with a grim expression, looking like a sour grape being force-fed.

You eat grapes but don’t spit out the skin!
