8 min read1,923 words

A few days later, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Yuantu were practicing alchemy together in the Palace’s alchemy room.

Standing at the side, Jiang Yuantu was instructing his disciple in alchemy. Seeing his disciple who was quite proficient in alchemy, suddenly became absent minded, Jiang Yuantu was shocked, and hurriedly waved a transparent barrier to surround Liu Mufeng.

“Bang…”With a loud noise, Liu Mufeng’s pill furnace shattered, and the liquid medicine in the furnace had already turned into a pile of black ash, scattering all over the floor.

“Mufeng, how are you?” Jiang Yuantu asked worriedly.

Seeing his Master’s worried face, Liu Mufeng lowered his head. “Thank you, Master, for the rescue. This disciple is fine.” If his Master hadn’t acted in time, he would have been injured by the furnace explosion at this moment.

“What’s the matter with you? Fusion of medicinal liquid is the last step and the most difficult step. It’s not the first day for you to learn alchemy. Why were you distracted at this time?” Jiang Yuantu asked, displeased.

“Master, Xiaoyuan sent a message through our consciousness link that someone broke into my yard, that’s why I was distracted.” At this point, Liu Mufeng looked helpless.

“What? Someone trespassed on Pill Peak? How brave!”

“Master,XiaoXu is still retreating in the courtyard. This disciple wants to go back and have a look.” Liu Mufeng said anxiously.

“Okay, I’ll go with you. As the Master of Pill Peak, I’d like to see who has the guts to break into my Pill Peak.” After speaking, Jiang Yuantu and Liu Mufeng, Master and Apprentice, left the alchemy room directly rushing to Liu Mufeng’s yard.

Standing at the gate of the yard, looking at Xiaoyuan who had led a group of spirit insects to prevent the people from entering, Xu Zhong and Wang Huo were very angry, but Huang Shanshan stood there calmly, waiting patiently the whole time.

“Bug, do you know what you are? How dare you block our way?” Xu Zhong said with a displeased face.

“That’s right, little bug, get out of the way if you are sensible.” Wang Huo was also very upset.

“I’ve said it before, my Boss Jiang is in seclusion, and no one is allowed to enter our yard.” With her hips akimbo, Xiaoyuan looked at the three of them with an unkind expression.

“You…” Pointing at Xiaoyuan, Xu Zhong was furious.

“Forget it, Senior Brother, let’s wait outside.” Huang Shanshan persuaded the other disciple softly.

“Third Elder.” Lowering their heads, the three hurriedly saluted.

“You are not new disciples who have entered the sect on the first day. You have been in the sect for hundreds or even thousands of years. Don’t you understand the rules of the sect? You are not my disciples of Pill Peak, coming to my Pill Peak you must send a message first, and I will give you permission before you can come in.” Jiang Yuantu admonished coldly.

“Third Elder, I’m here to look for Senior Brother Liu, and I came here especially to thank him.” Huang Shanshan explained hurriedly.

“I don’t care what your reason is. This is Pill Peak, not your Beast Control Peak, and it’s not a place where you come and go as soon as you wish. Today you must give me an explanation.”

“Third Elder, this, this…” Xu Zhong and Wang Huo looked anxious.

“Send a message to your Master and ask him to come over. I won’t tell you about this, but I will tell the Seventh Elder myself.” Jiang Yuantu said unhappily.

“Third Elder, don’t, don’t.” With a plop, Xu Zhong and Wang Huo hurriedly knelt down to Jiang Yuantu.

Bending down, Huang Shanshan also knelt down in front of Jiang Yuantu. “Third Elder, it’s my fault. I asked the two Senior Brothers to bring me to Pill Peak. If you want to punish, punish me. Please don’t punish the two Senior Brothers.”

“You are not disciples of this seat, and this seat doesn’t care about you. Let your Grandfather handle this matter.” As he said, Jiang Yuantu took out the message jade pendant and sent a message to the Seventh Elder.

After receiving the news, the Seventh Elder rushed over not long after. Looking at Jiang Yuantu and Liu Mufeng standing outside the courtyard, as well as his Granddaughter and his two disciples kneeling on the ground, Huang Yan twitched the corners of his mouth. “Third Elder, Nephew Liu, this, what is this?”

“Seventh Elder, your Granddaughter and two of your disciples trespassed on this seat’s Pill Peak. Since it’s their first offense, I didn’t hand them over to the Law Enforcement Hall. You should take them back. This time, I’ll let this matter go. If there is another time, don’t blame me for being rude to them.” Jiang Yuantu said mercilessly.

The Seventh Elder hurriedly apologized. “Third Elder, I have taught them badly. After I go back, I will discipline the three of them well. The younger generation is ignorant. Please bear with me.”

“I’m fine, but just now, Mufeng was concocting alchemy, and they suddenly broke into my Pill Peak, insisting on going inside Liu Mufeng’s courtyard causing my apprentice to blow up the furnace and almost hurt himself.” Jiang Yuantu was very annoyed when he said this.

“Yes, yes, yes, I will immediately go to the Sixth Elder to refine another alchemy furnace for Nephew Liu. We caused Nephew Liu to be surprised.” Lowering his head, the Seventh Elder admitted his mistake with a good attitude.

“Seventh Elder, you are too polite. My alchemy furnace has been used for some years. There were already a few cracks on it, otherwise it would not be so easy to blow up the furnace.” Liu Mufeng smiled wryly.

“No, no, no, I have taught my disciples badly. Please bear with me, Nephew Liu.” No wonder Jiang Yuantu was so angry. It turned out that Liu Mufeng had blown up the furnace due to the surprise.

“Seventh Elder, you’re being too serious.” As a disciple, Liu Mufeng naturally couldn’t criticize an Elder harshly.

“Senior Brother Liu, did you blow up your furnace? It’s all my fault, sorry, sorry.” Huang Shanshan couldn’t help but apologize, her eyes turned red.

Looking at Huang Shanshan who looked aggrieved. Liu Mufeng felt very embarrassed. Why did he feel as if he was bullying other people’s little girls? “Junior Sister Huang, I accept your apology, and I also accept your gratitude. However, my partner Jiang Xu is currently in seclusion, so my yard will not entertain any guests for the time being, please forgive me.”

“Oh, I see. Brother Liu, are you alright? Are you injured?” Huang Shanshan asked affectionately.

“Junior Sister Huang, don’t worry, Master set up a protective shield for me just in time, and I was not injured.”

“Oh.” After hearing this, Huang Shanshan felt relieved.

“Okay, we still need to make alchemy, so we won’t entertain the Seventh Elder.” Looking at the Seventh Elder, Jiang Yuantu directly ordered the guests out.

“Okay, I’ll take them back to strictly discipline them.” Nodding, the Seventh Elder left Pill Peak with the three trespassers.

Seeing the four of them left, Liu Mufeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There was no one inside the room. If someone finds out thatXiaoXu’s retreat room was empty, it would be troublesome.

“It’s really outrageous, they have no respect for rules at all.” Looking at the four people who left, Jiang Yuantu was still very upset.

“Master, forget it, it’s not a big deal, don’t be angry.” Liu Mufeng comforted his Master softly.

“You should take a rest first, we will practice alchemy together tomorrow.”

“Yes, Master.” In response, Liu Mufeng agreed.

Beast Control Peak.

Seventh Elder Huang Yan sat on a chair, and Xu Zhong, Wang Huo and Huang Shanshan knelt side by side in front of him. “Even I, the Seventh Elder, have to inform the Third Elder in advance if I want to see him, but how good you three are that you actually rushed to break into someone else’s Peak. You want to die, do you?”

“Grandpa, don’t blame the two Senior Brothers for my fault.” Huang Shanshan hastily admitted her mistake.

“It’s fine if you know you’re wrong, go back to your room and contemplate behind closed doors for a month.” Huang Yan said sternly to his Granddaughter.

“Yes, Grandpa.” In response, Huang Shanshan stood up and left the hall.

Seeing his Granddaughter leaving, Huang Yan looked at his two disciples. “Tell me about the two of you, one is my first disciple and the other is my second disciple. Don’t you understand the rules of the sect? Letting people say that the apprentice taught by this Seventh Elder trespassed on Pill Peak without permission. You’re not ashamed? Even I’m ashamed of this behavior.”

“Master, it’s not that we wanted to go to Pill Peak, but that our Junior Sister insisted on going to Pill Peak, and we couldn’t stop her.” Xu Zhong was also very helpless as he spoke.

“Yes, Junior Sister has a stubborn temper, we really couldn’t stop her.” Wang Huo was also very helpless.

“You guys, just let her go too much. How many times have I told you that you have to teach her some things, don’t let her do everything as she wishes. Also, take care of Shanshan and keep her away from that Liu Mufeng.” Looking at his two apprentices, the Seventh Elder warned solemnly.

“Yes, Master.” In response, Wang Huo agreed.

“Master, I think my Junior Sister seems to like that Liu Mufeng a little bit.” Xu Zhong was very depressed as he said this. He and Huang Shanshan grew up together, and he liked Huang Shanshan very much. Unfortunately, his Junior Sister had always looked down on him.

“I don’t like it either, how can my Granddaughter be someone’s concubine?” Shaking his head, the Seventh Elder expressed his objection.

“That’s right, that’s right, what Master said is right, the Junior Sister is so beautiful, she should find a good husband who loves her. How can she be a concubine?” Nodding, Xu Zhong hastily said yes.

“Master, this disciple also thinks that Junior Sister and Liu Mufeng are not suitable. Then you don’t know Jiang Xu’s temper. If Junior Sister marries Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu will definitely trouble Junior Sister all the time. Junior Sister is a Beast Master, and Jiang Xu is a Sword Master. She definitely can’t beat him.” Wang Huo also agreed. After all, he still wanted to marry his Junior Sister? How could he let his Junior Sister marry Liu Mufeng?

“You don’t need to say this, I know it in my heart. Anyway, you two have to promise me to take a good look at Shanshan. Don’t let her get close to Liu Mufeng.”

“Yes, Master.” Responding, the two immediately agreed.
