Chapter 756: Shadow Reappears, Intrigue

"Junior Brother Lingyun has been very close to Senior Brother Xuyun over the years. He came here to deliberately cause trouble this time. I'm afraid he was instructed by Senior Brother Xuyun."

Master Xiao Yun looked at Master Ling Yun who was leaving and blinked slightly.

There is an unspeakable sadness in the words.

Although Master Qiyun did not speak, his expression became extremely ugly.

After a long while, he said, "Our Alchemist Association has been in disarray over the years. I don't agree with Junior Brother Xuyun's approach. That's why I have been unwilling to return to the headquarters over the years. However, as one of the four great pharmacists, I can't just sit back and watch the Alchemist Association degenerate like this."

"Over the years, the Alchemist Association has grown faster and faster under the control of Junior Brother Xuyun. However, the members it has recruited are of varying quality."

"Many people regard the Alchemist Association as a springboard to get rich. They have all forgotten the original purpose of establishing our Alchemist Association."

Having said that, Master Qiyun looked at Chen Xuan.

There was not only satisfaction but also a smile of appreciation on the old face.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, you are young, daring, and very capable. Your alchemy skills are also outstanding."

"This time, I am letting you become one of the ten elders of our Alchemist Association headquarters. I also want to encourage those who are capable to do more work."

"You have seen what happened today. Our Alchemist Association headquarters is also in disarray."

"If we don't hurry up and rectify this, I'm afraid we'll become a tool in the hands of others."

Having said this, Master Qiyun paused slightly.

Master Xiao Yun nodded and said, "Brother, you are right. The original intention of establishing our Alchemist Association is to make the human race in our Fuyao world stronger and stronger, instead of the current internal friction."

"Unfortunately, the Alchemist Association has become more and more outrageous over the years. I am alone and cannot do anything. Fortunately, you are back, and I have a helper."

Master Xiao Yun finished his speech and looked at Chen Xuan again.

"Friend Chen Dao, do you know why you have become a thorn in everyone's side now?"

"This... is it that I am standing with Master Qiyun?" Chen Xuan asked puzzledly.

Master Xiao Yun smiled and shook his head.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, it doesn't really matter who you're with. What's important is that you're going to participate in the Alchemist's Grand Gathering this time. You're going to arm wrestle with the representative, Senior Brother Qiyun, and the three of us old guys."

"Haha, if you win, the three of us will follow our agreement and unconditionally support Senior Brother Qiyun's decision."

"But, how can this be so simple?"

"It's not easy to get those who hold power to give up their power."

"Besides, do you still remember the Xuanbing Qingling Water that Senior Brother Qiyun promised you?"

When Chen Xuan heard this, he suddenly understood.

Xuanbing Qingling Water!

This is the main material for refining the Shenhua Pill.

Looking at the entire Fuyao world, there are only a few forces that possess the Xuanbing Qingling Water.

The Alchemist Association Headquarters is one of them.

However, if you want to get the Xuanbing Qingling Water, it is not up to one person to decide.

Even if Master Qiyun risked his reputation, he couldn't get it.

The same goes for the other three divine pharmacists.

That is why, after discussing for a while, the four divine pharmacists decided to take out some Xuanbing Qingling Water as a reward for this alchemist event, and let their successors compete for it based on their own abilities.

In this way, we can not only screen out true talents, but also avoid the internal friction of competing for the Xuanbing Qingling Water.

Chen Xuan thought about it for a moment and understood the key.

"No wonder these guys always target me. Haha, if they beat me based on their own abilities, I wouldn't have any objection."

"But if they use such despicable means, I will not let them go."

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, confident in his plan.

Over the years, he has learned a lot of theoretical knowledge about alchemy from Master Qiyun.

Let your alchemy skills improve by leaps and bounds.

Not long ago, Chen Xuan was able to refine fifth-grade elixirs by himself.

Even Master Qiyun cannot reach this level of alchemy.

In order not to disappoint Master Qi Yun, Chen Xuan did not reveal his true alchemy skills in front of Master Qi Yun.

"Haha, I was right about you. Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen, just focus on participating in this alchemist competition. As for the other matters, I will take care of them for you." Master Qiyun said with a smile.

"Thank you!"

Chen Xuan thanked him, but he knew that he was now in the middle of the trouble and it would be impossible for him to get out.

The only way is to follow Master Qiyun till the end.

"Although Master Qiyun doesn't seem to have many helpers in the Alchemist Association, he is one of the four great pharmacists, so he must have some outstanding qualities."

"At least, through my interactions with him over the years, I feel that Master Qiyun is a very nice person."

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, and took this opportunity to ask Master Qiyun about the upcoming alchemist conference.

"The Alchemist Festival is established to train more young alchemists."

"However, this alchemist event is a little different from the previous ones. Because the alchemist who wins first place will get Xuanbing Qingling Water."

"Therefore, the number of participating alchemists in this year's Alchemist Festival is much greater than before."

"However, with your level of alchemy, ordinary alchemists are no match for you. What you need to focus on right now is still the heir of the divine pharmacist."

"Junior Brother Xuyun's successor is the young master of the Blood Spirit Palace. You have already met him."

"As for Junior Brother Lingyun's successor, his name is Xu Feng. This guy is always mysterious. I only know his name, but I have never seen him in person."

"As for Junior Brother Xiao Yun's successor, her name is Liu Jingyue. Although Jingyue is a female cultivator, she is an elixir fanatic. Apart from refining elixirs, she is not good at other things."

Master Qiyun carefully introduced the situation of this alchemist conference.

He even described the situations of the other three successors of the divine pharmacist in great detail.

Chen Xuan listened carefully and frowned slightly.

"Although the young master of the Blood Spirit Palace looks a bit frivolous, his alchemy skills should not be underestimated."

"As for Liu Jingyue, he is obsessed with alchemy. Such alchemists are usually people with outstanding alchemy skills, so they should not be underestimated."

"Finally, the extremely mysterious Xu Feng is also worthy of attention."

"It seems that none of my opponents this time should be underestimated."

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, and soon he looked back to normal.

However, he didn't know that when he was asking Master Qiyun about the alchemy event, in a secret room in the alchemist headquarters, Master Lingyun, who had a big fight with Chen Xuan not long ago, was sitting with a gray-haired old man.

In the Alchemist Association headquarters, the only people who can stand on equal footing with the four great pharmacists are the four great pharmacists.

Sitting with Master Lingyun was Master Xuyun, one of the four great pharmacists in the Alchemist Association.

"Junior Brother Lingyun, did you find any clues when you went to look for that Chen this time?"

Master Xuyun smiled gently, but his eyes were full of expectation.

"Brother, the guy surnamed Chen has very good fighting ability. As for his alchemy level, I don't know."

"However, in my opinion, Senior Brother Qiyun and Senior Brother Xiaoyun are quite fond of the man named Chen."

"It seems that if the two of us want to join forces to win the first place in this Alchemist Competition and divide up the Xuanbing Qingling Water, it will probably be quite difficult."

Master Lingyun explained everything in detail.

He even recounted the details of the battle between him and Chen Xuan.

After listening to this, Master Xuyun blinked his eyelids slightly and his brows were wrinkled into pimples.

"This kid is really quite capable. However, the Alchemist Conference is not far away. We should proceed according to the plan."

After a pause, Master Xuyun smiled coldly again.

"Haha, our descendants are both alchemists who have been carefully trained for countless years. How can someone named Chen be comparable to us?"

Upon hearing this, Master Lingyun's eyes suddenly lit up.

Even the wrinkles on his face were smoothed out at this moment.

"Brother, what you said is absolutely right. In this case, let's act according to the plan."

"Haha, as long as one of us can win first place in the Alchemist Festival, then from now on, the Alchemist Association will be ruled by the two of us."

Master Xuyun nodded in agreement.

After chatting with Master Lingyun for a while, he said goodbye and left.

Soon, Master Lingyun was the only one left in the secret room.

However, not long after Master Xuyun left, Master Lingyun’s faint voice was heard from the scene.

"Fellow Taoist, come out!"

In the secret room, there was no one except Master Lingyun.

But soon, Master Lingyun's voice sounded again.

"Fellow Daoist, if you don't come out, don't blame me for being rude."

As soon as he finished speaking, an illusory old man suddenly appeared in front of Master Lingyun.

"Lingyun, long time no see. It seems that you have been a divine pharmacist in the Alchemist Association for too long, and even I don't take you seriously anymore?"

As one of the four great divine pharmacists, Master Lingyun holds a very honorable position in the Alchemist Association.

But at this moment, he was treated so rudely that his anger suddenly grew.

However, when he saw clearly the face of the illusory old man in front of him, he immediately knelt on the ground respectfully.

"Hello, Senior. No matter what Lingyun's status is, in front of you, I am just a dog you raised."

When Master Lingyun spoke, he was so excited that his voice trembled a little.

But the illusory old man didn't seem to believe Master Lingyun.

His eyes rested calmly on Master Lingyun for a long time before he said, "Haha, you are one of the four great pharmacists after all, so why do you have to be a dog for me? However, I came here this time to ask for your help."

Master Lingyun was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly said, "Senior, if you have anything to say, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

The illusory old man nodded in satisfaction.

Soon, he added: "Very good, in that case, let me introduce some people to you. Then, you can act together."

As soon as the illusory old man finished speaking, four figures appeared from the void at a rapid speed.

If Chen Xuan were here, he would recognize at a glance that these four people were the four great masters on the Cangwu grassland.
