Chapter 240 - Peng Yun Entering The Alchemy Hall

"So, this Peng Yun is coming to teach us about his unique path in alchemy over the next few months?" Sitting in a chair together with four of the core elders of the Alchemy Hall, Wan Qiu tilted her head to the side as she had a curious look in her eyes.

"Yes. Apparently Elder Xuan met this person when outside and found out he was an alchemist and did things a bit different from normal alchemist. Thinking that it might be able to help us improve further on the path of alchemy, Elder Xuan invited him back to the sect to teach us over the next few months!" Standing in front of the five elders, a disciple wearing the robes of an outer sect disciple said this respectfully as he bowed his head in the direction of the five elders.

This was his first time facing any elders from the Alchemy Hall and he almost stuttered over his words as he said this, but in the end managed to stop himself as he happily thanked whatever higher being that had looked after him and allowed him to hide his nervous expression while bowing his head.

"I see, he should be arriving only a little after you… You can take your leave for now!" Muttering something to herself as she sent the outer sect disciple in front of her away, Wan Qiu turned to look at the other four elders with an even stronger look of curiosity than when she had first heard about someone coming to teach them about a new way to do alchemy.

The outer sect disciple bowed even deeper than he already had before quickly turning around and leaving the room. Resulting in only the five elders remaining inside the room.

"I never knew Elder Xuan was knowledgeable about alchemy… To even be able to discern that the person was following a different path in alchemy compared to the more orthodox one… Seems like Elder Xuan is not only talented when it comes to cultivation, but should also be quite experienced in alchemy as well…" Among the five elders present, an elderly man only about the height of a child around the age of thirteen or fourteen stood up from his seat as he said this with a wide smile spreading across his elderly face.

"Indeed… I never knew that Elder Xuan was proficient in alchemy… I'm really curious about how far he has gone…" Nodding his head a bit upon hearing what the short elder said, Elder Gong could not help but grow curious about Xuan Hao's alchemy.

"Haha, we can always ask Elder Xuan about this later, for now we still need to welcome the unorthodox alchemist that Elder Xuan sent over." Laughing as she saw the short elder and Elder Gong Bo talk about Elder Xuan, Wan Qiu stepped in and stopped them from continuing even though she was curious about the alchemy realm Xuan Hao had reached as well.

She already knew very well that if both of them began talking, she would never get to leave this gathering room before the morning of the next day…

"How about I go out and greet him?"

"Are you sure Elder Xia?"

Turning to look over at the short elder that voulentered himself, Wan Qiu did not really have anything against it. Only feeling a bit worried that he might end up chatting with the person sent over by Elder Xuan and forget that he was supposed to bring him to the gathering room…

"Yes! I'm sure! I will be back shortly with the new friend of ours on the path of alchemy!" Proudly stating this as he soon disappeared from the room with a happy smile on his lips, Wan Qiu and the other elders could not help but feel a bit worried.

Surely nothing would happen along the way…

…

As Chi Hu got settled in and began helping out Elder Song with the absurd amount of requests from the different elders of the Flying Sword Sect, Peng Yun made his way over to the Alchemy Hall as he was already given a room there to write down and share his knowledge on the subject to the rest of the alchemist before being allowed to leave.

"Are you perhaps Peng Yun?" Entering the Alchemy Hall, a short elder dressed in the robe symbolizing that he was part of the Alchemy Hall walked over and asked with a bright smile on his lips.

"Yes, I am…" Felling a bit weird upon seeing the bright smile on the elder's face, Peng Yun's hand was suddenly grabbed by the short elder as he was dragged deeper into the Alchemy Hall.

Given the seal placed on his cultivation base and given the fact that his physical strength had also been supressed alongside it, Peng Yun could do nothing as the short elder dragged him along with an excited expression plastered all over his face. Making Peng Yun feel even more confused.

Why was the elder so excited about seeing him? Did that Elder Xuan and Elder Shu not inform him about the fact that he was just here to record his alchemy knowledge down as punishment for attack Elder Xuan along with Chi Hu?

"We are here!"

Suddenly coming to a stop at the end of the hall in front of a big wooden door, the short elder let go of Peng Yun as he pushed open the door and signalled for Peng Yun to follow after him.

No matter what, he felt that the short elder's reaction was too weird considering his current position.

From the looks of it, he would be able to get an answer after entering the room…

"…"

Looking at the short elder for a moment as he was smiling at him from the other side of the door, Peng Yun felt himself suddenly growing nervous as he entered through the door in front of him.

Creak~

With a silent creaking noise, the door slowly closed behind him as Peng Yun stepped through the doorway into the room.
