Chapter 437: Dan Duel, the Wind Sways to One Side

The territory of the medicine gang.

A lackey beside Lei Lu immediately stood up.

"Hey! What's going on? The time has come. Why, you haven't gathered all the herbs yet?!"

This lackey's language was extremely aggressive, and his expression was extremely arrogant, making people want to slap him.

Yu Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, and her purple pupils made the originally arrogant lackey dare not continue speaking.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I am not in such a hurry, so why are you in such a hurry?"

Suddenly, Gu Xian slowly appeared and glanced at the lackeys of the medicine gang. Although his tone was calm, it gave people an extremely terrifying feeling of oppression.

This is a kind of psychological oppression.

Lei Lu and others were very helpless, but they dared not say a word in front of Gu Xian.

After all, there is a gap in status.

Elder Wu was somewhat displeased: "Old Gu, your behavior is biased."

Elder Wu saw at a glance that Gu Xian was favoring Lin Xuan and Yu Xi, and naturally he was a little unhappy.

Gu Xian just smiled faintly and looked at Elder Wu.

"The time of a stick of incense."

Elder Wu was upset, but he could only give Gu Xian face.

"Sorry, I'm late."

This time, Lin Xuan didn't get stuck.

Lin Xuan slowly stepped out of the void, came to Yu Xi's side, and gave Yu Xi an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, I'm a little late."

"Fortunately, you arrived in time."

Yu Xi always looks very calm, with a cold smile, as if nothing and no one can make her angry.

Perhaps the Hundred Ghosts Sect that happened not long ago is one of them.

"This is the herb you requested. I can't get you two, only one."

Lin Xuan felt helpless about this. Some of the materials were really too hard to find, especially the Youlanchun. He couldn't find another one that was over three thousand years old even after searching the entire Fenglei Hall.

Even if they found something, it would only be of the level that was just over a thousand years old, which was still far from what Yu Xi required.

Yu Xi did not blame Lin Xuan. She just smiled and took the storage ring. She glanced at the things in the ring and looked at Lin Xuan with some surprise.

"I didn't expect you to get a copy of the 6,000-year-old Youlanchun. Now I'm 99% sure!"

"Six thousand years?" Lin Xuan was slightly stunned.

"Well, although You Lan Chun only plays a supporting role in the refining of the Heavenly King Pill, it is indispensable. Three thousand years old is already the minimum requirement, and six thousand years old is enough to increase its preciousness by a hundred times!"

Lin Xuan was even more stunned. The main reason was that Lin Xuan didn't know how to make pills, so naturally he didn't expect that this thing would be so expensive!

"How much is it worth?"

Lin Xuan was a little depressed. If the value of this thing was too high, then he would owe Xingyue too much.

"It's hard to estimate, but I think it should be between 40 and 50 million high-quality Yuanshi."

Lin Xuan couldn't help but take a deep breath in his heart. The value of this thing was indeed a bit terrifying.

After selling pills for two days, I only sold half of You Lan Chun...

"It's okay. Once I know how to refine the Heavenly King Pill, the value of this Orchid Spring will be realized soon."

Yu Xi blinked her beautiful eyes confidently at Lin Xuan, then looked at Lei Lu and others.

"Okay, I don't have any problem now."

Lei Lu looked at Lin Xuan and Yu Xi, his heart filled with murderous intent, and he snorted coldly in his heart.

Elder Guxian looked at Yuxi and Lin Xuan twice more, then stroked his beard and said:

"Okay, now that both of you have prepared your medicinal materials, let's begin this alchemy competition. This is an unregulated competition, and the comprehensive scoring will be based on the value, difficulty, and quality of the elixir."

"Do you two understand?"

After Gu Xian finished speaking, his eyes swept from Yu Xi to Lei Lu.

When Guxian took a look at Lei Lu, he felt energized and was determined to demonstrate his strength.

"Okay, Elder Gushang, I understand."

This respectful voice is naturally that of Lei Lu.

Yu Xi just nodded slightly and said simply "hmm".

One is respectful, while the other is indifferent, like two extremes.

"Okay, then from now on, the time for refining the elixir will be six Shichen!"

Generally speaking, the refining time of Wang Dan is basically controlled between three to six hours, so Gu Xian's time is relatively reasonable.

Of course, if it is some more special elixir, it may take dozens of days or even a year.

Lei Lu instantly took out his medicine cauldron. Lei Lu was worthy of being the leader of the Medicine Gang. As the overlord of Fenglei Hall, the medicine cauldron he owned was naturally extraordinary.

"It's actually a Taoist-grade medicine refining cauldron!"

"Hiss~ This is really too generous, actually using a Taoist tool as a cauldron for refining medicine!"

"As expected of the leader of the Medicine Gang, it's normal for him to have such a background."

"I don't know if that little girl can block it. The alchemy technique of Lei Lu is indeed not simple. Now with this Taoist tripod, it's a bit risky."

Many people have begun to worry about Yuxi.

It's not just because appearance is justice, but also because Lei Lu has been rampant in Fenglei Hall for more than ten years and has already caused dissatisfaction among many people.

Compared to Yu Xi losing, they would rather see Lei Lu lose.

After Lei Lu took out his own tripod, his face was full of arrogance and pride.

"Hehehe, little girl, this is my alchemy cauldron, named Di Yuan Shen Ding, it is a genuine Taoist weapon, not only can it be used to refine pills, but also to defend against enemies!"

From this point of view, Lei Lu does have the capital to be proud of. After all, his equipment is luxurious and his alchemy skills are also top-notch.

There was only a very slight flash of disdain in Yuxi's eyes.

Lei Lu became even more angry when he saw this. His anger already made him very unhappy.

"Elder Guxian, I wonder if we can add a bet!"

Lei Lu looked at Elder Guxian and asked with a fist clasped.

Everyone was stunned, but Gu Xian was not surprised at all. What kind of storms and waves had he not seen?

"It's up to you guys, I'm just the host."

"Okay, thank you, Elder Guxian."

Lei Lu excitedly clasped his fists towards Elder Guxian again, then looked at Yu Xi and Lin Xuan with an unfriendly face.

"How about this, let's have a bet today?"

Lin Xuan looked at Lei Lu coldly: "How do you want to bet?"

"It's very simple." A hint of success flashed in Lei Lu's eyes.

"Let's put it this way. If I win this time, not only will you have to hand over the recipe for the Qi-avoiding Pill, but you will also have to kneel down and apologize to me, and promise not to use your status to pressure me!!"

Lei Lu pointed his finger at Lin Xuan with an unfriendly look on his face.

This time, Lei Lu was determined to go all out. Even when facing Bai Xiaosheng's earth-level Taoist envoy, Lei Lu felt that he could not swallow that humiliation.

What's more, he has Elder Bai Xiaosheng, who is at the monarch level, standing behind him, so he doesn't need to be afraid of Lin Xuan, a Taoist envoy at the earth level.

Without waiting for Lin Xuan and the others to reply, Lei Lu looked at Yu Xi again and continued:

"Also, I need you to be my maid for three years."

A glimmer of desire flashed in Lei Lu's eyes.

As a great alchemy master who dominates a certain area, Lei Lu has seen countless women, but he has never seen someone like Yu Xi.

Especially since Yuxi is a girl who can make elixirs, this further echoes Lei Lu's fantasy about his other half.

If I could unite with Yuxi, the offspring I would give birth to would definitely be outstanding!

Yu Xi glanced at the Thunder Scroll with disgust, then turned her head to look at Lin Xuan, and asked five words very confidently and calmly:

"Do you believe me?"

Lin Xuan nodded without any hesitation.

In Lin Xuan's opinion, his chances of winning this bet are as high as 99%.

If he really lost, Lin Xuan would not be afraid.

Do you want to kneel down and apologize yourself?

Lin Xuan just wanted to say that when that time really comes, the seal will be released and the third layer of the Zhutian Divine Sword will come out.

"Okay, I can agree to it, but if you lose, my request is very simple."

After Yu Xi received Lin Xuan's response, she agreed without any hesitation.

Gu Xian looked at Yu Xi with deep eyes. He actually felt a very strange...sense of oppression from Yu Xi?

That’s right, it was a very strange feeling of oppression, but Gu Xian couldn’t find out where that feeling of oppression came from.

"What do you want?" Lei Lu didn't believe that he would lose. In Lei Lu's opinion, this was a competition that he must win.

"Your head!"

Yu Xi pointed at Lei Lu's head, his tone was calm, but his words were not simple.

Many people were amazed that under Yuxi's beautiful face, there was such a crazy heart.

Lei Lu's eyes darkened, but before long, he snorted coldly:

"it is good!"

"Could it be that the leader of this gang is afraid of you? If I lose, you can take my head!"

Lei Lu's eyes were fierce, and he used his soul power to detect a pill in the storage ring. His timid heart immediately calmed down.

"Okay, now, your competition can begin."

Seeing that the two men’s bets were almost settled, Gu Xian spoke directly.

Lei Lu smiled confidently and immediately started to light the cauldron and pour fire into it.

Yu Xi was not in a hurry. She slowly took out a small black tripod from her body. The small tripod looked quite cute.

The faces of everyone in the Lin family changed.

"Oh my, it's over now. Why does Miss Yuxi's tripod look so bad?" Xu Zilin looked bitter.

Now Xu Zilin and the Lin family are on the same boat. If this boat capsizes, then Xu Zilin’s good days will be over.

As a puppet summoned by Lin Xuan, Lin Yetian fully trusted Lin Xuan's choice, so he did not show any fear.

Although many people in the Lin family trusted Lin Xuan, they did not trust this extremely young and beautiful woman so much.

The entire atmosphere is now almost condensed into ice.

Lin Xuan slowly landed on the Lin family's territory, and many people in the Lin family were hesitant to speak.

Lin Xuan crossed his arms across his chest and looked straight at Yu Xi who was competing in the alchemy competition on the stage without even turning his head.

"Please trust Miss Yuxi's alchemy skills."

It was just a very simple sentence, but the Lin family seemed to have found a backbone and miraculously no longer had any worries.

They did not believe Yu Xi, but believed what their family head said.

Many people did not notice the changes in the Lin family, except Xingyue, who narrowed her eyes slightly.

"I never thought that this guy had such a high status in the hearts of his own people. If I was like this back then, why did I end up like this..."

The fight for elixirs in the field is about to break out.

Lei Lu was the first to pick up the cauldron and put in the medicine. Hundreds of medicinal materials were melted little by little into the furnace in Lei Lu's hands. A yellowish-brown flame jumped wildly in the palm of Lei Lu's hand, which was very eye-catching.

Even those who don't understand alchemy can understand that Lei Lu's alchemy technique is indeed profound and unfathomable.

When Danjun Guxian saw this, he stroked his beard and nodded slightly. He was indeed a guy with skills.

On the other hand, Yu Xi was currently decomposing the medicinal materials one by one with a relatively weak flame, which looked rather boring.

Originally, laymen could not understand the art of alchemy, and now seeing Yuxi's plain and colorless face, they all felt that Yuxi's alchemy skills were probably not very advanced.

Lei Lu, who was standing opposite Yu Xi, was refining his own pills while also paying some attention to Yu Xi's situation. Seeing Yu Xi's pill refining technique, Lei Lu couldn't help but reveal a disdainful smile.

How could such alchemy skills be compared with mine? The original one percent of worry disappeared at this moment.

Lei Lu calmed himself and immediately began frantically refining the elixir.

This time, even Gu Xian, who was originally very interested in Yu Xi, began to doubt himself.

"This girl has a very strong smell of alchemy. Logically speaking, there is also a very mysterious meaning of alchemy between her eyebrows. She is an excellent seedling for alchemy. However, why does her alchemy technique look so amateurish to me... How strange, how strange."

"It's over! It's really over now. This alchemy technique is so inferior that it's hard to tell at a glance!"

Xu Zilin felt numb when he saw the two figures in the field.

Lin Xuan looked at Yu Xi's unique alchemy skills without any panic in his heart, because Yu Xi gave Lin Xuan a very mysterious feeling.

More importantly, Yuxi's fighting power has already shown that Yuxi is a person with an extraordinary background. What's more, Yuxi once mentioned that she had a third grandfather who taught her how to make pills, and she called him the Pill Emperor!

Lin Xuan believes that Yu Xi will win this time. The art of alchemy does not mean the more gorgeous it is, the more powerful it is. The alchemy method that can make good pills is a good method!

A few hours really passed in the blink of an eye.

Lei Lu's alchemy cauldron was already beginning to stir.

"Look, Lei Lu's cauldron seems to be about to produce pills!"

"It seems that there are indeed signs of the elixir coming out!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I can smell the fragrance from the furnace even from eighty miles away."

"Ah, as expected, the Thunder Scroll is more powerful."

"After all, he is an old hand. That girl really overestimated her own abilities."

"What a pity for this little girl."

Almost everyone was pessimistic about Yu Xi because there was no movement from Yu Xi's alchemy furnace.
