“Ah? Selling stolen goods?” Jiang Xiaobai was stunned.
“The Cleansing Pills from the Gold and Silver Pavilion were provided by you, right?” Ao Yuanwu said indifferently.
“That’s right. Previously, I was a mortal and didn’t have the chance to get any spirit herbs, so even if I knew how to refine pills, I couldn’t do anything…”
Ao Yuanwu waved his hand and interrupted, “This time, I’m not asking you about that. I just want to ask, if you have enough spirit herbs, how many Cleansing Pills can you refine?”
“This, ten pills a day should be no problem…” Jiang Xiaobai probed.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he saw the expressions on the two old men’s faces change drastically.
“Work harder. If you work hard, fifteen pills shouldn’t be a problem!”
Hiss!
Then, there was the sound of inhaling a cold breath.
Jiang Xiaobai was stunned on the spot. Did he say too much or too little?
If he went at full power, he would have no problem with more than 100 Cleansing Pills a day.
“Sure. From tomorrow onwards, you will come to the Dragon Palace to refine pills. I will give you four hours a day to refine as many pills as you can. Dragon Valley will not treat you unfairly. If you need any resources for cultivation, feel free to tell me!” Ao Yuanwu said with a faint smile.
Jiang Xiaobai was ecstatic. His plan had finally worked!
They had taken a fancy to his alchemy skills. It was precisely because of this that he dared to be so impudent today.
After saying this, Ao Yuanwu asked about some spirit herbs and then left with Ao Zhenbei.
For a time, only Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Yan were left in the courtyard.
Looking at Ao Yan’s teasing expression, Jiang Xiaobai smiled embarrassedly.
“Did you have fun shouting just now?” Ao Yan said with a smile.
This time, Jiang Xiaobai did not dare to say anything. If he had not seen how Ao Yan dealt with Ao Cheng, he might have said something.
But now, he admitted that he was still a little cowardly.
He could only say that he was straightforward back then!
“Hehe, I’m happy, but don’t misunderstand. I just can’t stand that guy!” Jiang Xiaobai said hurriedly, and then began to pour tea for Ao Yan.
Ao Yan smiled lightly and didn’t say anything. She just glanced at Jiang Xiaobai and didn’t refuse.
Just like that, the two sat in the courtyard and drank tea silently for the whole afternoon.
At night, lying on the bed, Jiang Xiaobai began to brainstorm again.
Dragon Valley should be slightly approving of him now. After all, being able to refine a Cleansing Pill was an extremely precious thing. There was no precedent like this in the entire Tian Xuan Continent.
Therefore, from the looks of it, as long as he didn’t seek death, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
However, Ao Tianheng and the Ancient Clan’s crisis was still a big problem, and Jiang Xiaobai wouldn’t sit still and wait for death.
Not only that, he was chased by the Ancient Clan outside, and poisoned in the Dragon Valley.
The former could still be dealt with if he was careful, while the latter was really hard to guard against.
Not only did Jiang Xiaobai not feel any relief, on the contrary, the crisis became even more intense.
“I have to find out who is interested in me in Dragon Valley. Otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep well.”
The arrangement still needed to be continued. Comrade, you still need to work hard!
After thinking about this for a moment, Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes slightly and looked at Ao Yan beside him.
The moonlight shone through the window and fell on the side of Ao Yan’s face. At this moment, Ao Yan was like a bright and noble goddess of the moon. She could not be blasphemed and made people feel a sense of distance from her.
She was beautiful, so beautiful that it could not be described with words.
Ao Yan suddenly opened her eyes and asked softly, “Why did you go down the mountain yesterday?”
Jiang Xiaobai was almost scared out of his wits. “It’s nothing. I was bored by staying in Dragon Valley all day and wanted to take a look outside.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a token flew over.
Jiang Xiaobai stretched out his hand to catch it and was shocked to find that it was Ao Yan’s token.
“In the future, if you want to go down the mountain, you don’t have to trouble Third Elder anymore. However, don’t go out as you please. It will be troublesome if something goes wrong.” After Ao Yan finished speaking, she did not make a sound.
However, the fact that she had given the token to Jiang Xiaobai was enough to prove that this woman’s attitude towards him had changed greatly.
It just so happened that Jiang Xiaobai would need to go out frequently in the future. He was still worried about this, but there was no need for that now.
Now that Ao Yan’s opinion of him had changed, he reckoned that he had probably conquered a part of her. However, Jiang Xiaobai did not think that the other party would be able to save his life from the hands of the Ancient Clan because of this.
After memorizing Ao Yan’s words, Jiang Xiaobai closed his eyes and began to snore. Not long after, the sound of snoring could be heard.
Hmm, dreams are always sweet!
Sitting on the bed and cultivating, Ao Yan’s lips curled into a smile. She took a deep breath and continued to cultivate.
At night, not every place was as peaceful as this small room.
In Ao Tianheng’s cave abode, he had already smashed everything he could see. Not only that, there was also blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.
Today, he had originally wanted to try to breakthrough, but he was interrupted by Ao Cheng. Then, he was harshly slapped by the two of them.
An inner demon had grown in his heart. As a result, not only did his cultivation not improve, but it even showed signs of regressing!
“Ao Cheng, Jiang Xiaobai, I will kill you two b*stards!”
“Ahhhhh!”
The hatred in Ao Tianheng’s eyes was like the green light in the dark night, making people feel a chill in their hearts.
…
Early in the morning, Jiang Xiaobai got up, washed up, and rushed straight to Dragon Palace. Ao Yuanwu had told him in advance that he would enter Dragon Palace without any obstruction.
Ao Yuanwu was already waiting inside. Beside him were a storage ring and a pill furnace.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a top-grade divine pill furnace. It was even better than some of the most trashy divine-grade pills!
Dragon Valley was indeed worthy of being a big faction!
Then, under Ao Yuanwu’s gaze, Jiang Xiaobai began to refine pills.
In fact, after learning from Ao Yan that Jiang Xiaobai could refine Cleansing Pills, his first thought was to verify the authenticity and then let Jiang Xiaobai work for Dragon Valley.
However, Ao Yuanwu held back his thoughts and planned to see how Jiang Xiaobai was doing first. In the end, Jiang Xiaobai made a trip down the mountain and the Cleansing Pills appeared out of nowhere, causing quite a big impact.
Ao Yuanwu could no longer sit still, which was why the situation was like this.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t waste any time either. He used the spirit herbs prepared by Ao Yuanwu to start refining the pills. He didn’t feel any pressure because Ao Yuanwu was beside him.
Four hours later, Jiang Xiaobai’s timing was very accurate. He just happened to refine fifteen Cleansing Pills. At the same time, he also showed an exhausted look in his eyes, as if he was about to pass out.
“It’s been hard on you. These are two Rejuvenation Pills. Rest well. You don’t have to work so hard in the future. Your cultivation is still too low. If your soul is damaged, it will have a great impact on your cultivation!” Ao Yuanwu also smiled faintly when he saw this.
This kid really worked hard to help Dragon Valley refine pills!
“Grandpa, don’t worry. I know what to do. I’ll go back and rest first. I still have to go to Third Elder’s place to cultivate in the afternoon.”
After Ao Yuanwu gave a few more reminders, he told Jiang Xiaobai to go back and rest quickly.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xiaobai went to Third Elder’s place again.
Third Elder seemed to be isolated, but his position in Dragon Valley was very high. He naturally knew that the Cleansing Pill was refined by Jiang Xiaobai.
Therefore, the moment he saw Jiang Xiaobai, he planned to pick up his shoe and start beating him up.
“You Jiang Xiaobai, what a trick. You even hid it from me?” Third Elder said angrily.
Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly smiled and rushed forward to hand over a pot of wine that he had prepared earlier.
“Hehe, Third Elder, calm down, calm down..”
