The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 828 - 826: Qiu Yukui’s Hatred! [ - Four]

Chapter 828: Chapter 826: Qiu Yukui’s Hatred! [Chapter Four]

Gu Yueqing said, "Other than the Flood Dragon Blood, all the other spiritual medicines needed for refining the Heaven Repairing Pill have already been gathered in the Dan Dao Courtyard Treasury for you. Now we can start refining the pill once we obtain the main ingredient, the Flood Dragon Blood."

Lin Bai’s eyes shone with surprise and delight. Once the Flood Dragon Blood was obtained, he could refine the Heaven Repairing Pill and repair his Dantian, thereby restoring his cultivation.

"In that case, there’s no time to waste, let’s set out now,"

Lin Bai said excitedly.

Gu Yueqing nodded gently and walked out of the Purple Bamboo Grove with Lin Bai.

Along the way, Lin Bai and Gu Yueqing engaged in pleasant conversations.

Gu Yueqing was knowledgeable and inquisitive, and she discussed Dan Dao experiences with Lin Bai throughout their journey.

Lin Bai, too, spared no detail, providing great assistance to Gu Yueqing.

Moreover, Lin Bai could tell from their exchange that Gu Yueqing’s understanding of Dan Dao was incredibly profound.

Lin Bai muttered to himself, "If Gu Yueqing is nurtured properly, it’s not impossible for her to become a King-level Alchemist someday!"

Knife Dao Sect!

Inside Qiu Yukui’s luxurious residence.

A disciple from the Dan Dao Courtyard ran into Qiu Yukui’s residence and called out respectfully, "Senior Brother Qiu Yukui, I greet you."

Qiu Yukui looked at the warrior and said coldly, "Didn’t I ask you to keep a close watch on the movements in the Purple Bamboo Grove at the Dan Dao Courtyard? Why have you come back?"

The warrior replied, "I have indeed followed Senior Brother Qiu Yukui’s instructions and closely monitored all activities within the Purple Bamboo Grove!"

"Senior Brother, just now, Lin Bai and Senior Sister Gu Yueqing left the Purple Bamboo Grove together, talking and laughing along the way, and it’s always Senior Sister Gu Yueqing who initiates the conversations with Lin Bai."

"It seems that Senior Sister Gu Yueqing is quite interested in Lin Bai!"

The warrior whispered.

Hearing this, Qiu Yukui’s eyes became bloodshot, and he raged like a wild beast, "What! They were talking and laughing together? And Qing’er approached Lin Bai on her own every time! Their relationship seems quite close!"

"How is this possible!"

"They just met today; how could Qing’er become so intimate with him so quickly!"

"I have pursued Qing’er for three years, and during those three years, she has never initiated a conversation with me!"

Qiu Yukui was so angry that he slammed his fist onto the table, fuming with rage.

Seeing Qiu Yukui’s wrath, the trembling warrior asked, "What do we do next, Senior Brother Qiu Yukui?"

Qiu Yukui commanded, "Go find out where Qing’er and Lin Bai have gone."

"Come back and report to me immediately once you find out!"

Qiu Yukui ordered.

"Yes!"

The warrior responded and immediately left the Knife Dao Sect.

Qiu Yukui’s eyes radiated a bloody gleam, "Qing’er, my three years of affection for you are as clear as the sun and the moon, yet they seem to pale in comparison to a man you’ve just met, Lin Bai!"

"Ah!"

"No! Gu Yueqing, you are destined to become my woman, Qiu Yukui!"

"Just wait, after I conquer you, I will make sure that you, a fairy who doesn’t partake in the mundane world, wail and beg for mercy under me!"

"And... Lin Bai, dare to compete with me for a woman, you are courting death!"

At this moment, Qiu Yukui harbored a killing intent towards Lin Bai!

...

Elixir King City is the headquarters of the Dan Dao Alliance in Lingdong’s 700 States!

This place is the most powerful Dan Dao Sacred Land in Lingdong.

Within Elixir King City, the He Family and Zhang family are both medicinal families, each renowned for cultivating spiritual medicines.

The He Family has a good relationship with the Dan Dao Courtyard. Their cultivated spiritual medicines have been recognized by the Dan Dao Courtyard. Therefore, the spiritual medicines grown by the He Family are directly purchased by the Dan Dao Courtyard.

For instance, the Nine Lives Grass and Coiling Dragon Root that Gu Yueqing used to refine the Human Emperor Elixir all came from the Elixir King City’s medicinal family, the He Family!

Even Lin Bai had to admit that the He Family indeed possessed the miraculous ability to rejuvenate, cultivating the medicinal potency of Nine Lives Grass and Coiling Dragon Root to 90% of natural spiritual medicines, which was quite exceptional.

As for the Zhang Family of Elixir King City, although they also wanted to cooperate with the Dan Dao Courtyard, the spiritual medicines they cultivated were inconsistent in quality, with weak potency, and did not impress the Dan Dao Courtyard, thus there was no cooperation.

As a result, the Zhang family’s spiritual medicine could only be sold to some ordinary alchemists in Lingdong.

Elixir King City is located in the Sky Blue Mountain Range, seven days’ journey from the Miracle Ridge.

Gu Yueqing took a low-grade spirit boat from the Dan Dao Courtyard, and after both of them boarded the spirit boat, they left the Miracle Ridge.

On the spirit boat, Gu Yueqing took out a map and searched for the direction to Elixir King City.

Lin Bai asked with a smile, "Do you still need to look at the map? Haven’t you been to Elixir King City before?"

Gu Yueqing smiled awkwardly, "I’ve grown up on the Miracle Ridge since I was young. To tell the truth, this is my first time leaving the Miracle Ridge, leaving the Dan Dao Courtyard."

Lin Bai smiled wordlessly, "Are you an orphan?"

Gu Yueqing nodded lightly, "Mm, ever since I can remember, I have always been in the Dan Dao Courtyard, following Master to practice Dan Dao."

"Oh, I see."

Lin Bai nodded.

Gu Yueqing, holding the map, looked at it for a long time with her brows tightly knit, seemingly a bit confused.

Lin Bai silently watched Gu Yueqing study the map, and a smile actually appeared on his face.

Who would have thought, this fairy who seemed untouched by the mundane world, actually couldn’t understand the map.

"Let me do it."

Lin Bai stepped forward and said with a smile.

Gu Yueqing smiled awkwardly, "This map is drawn too... difficult to recognize."

Gu Yueqing handed the map to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai took the map and quickly found the direction to Elixir King City, controlling the spirit boat to speed away at full force.

The spirit boat is of high quality among flying spirit artifacts; once the direction is set, it can fly autonomously.

During this time, Lin Bai and Gu Yueqing sat on the deck of the spirit boat and began to talk about Dan Dao.

Gu Yueqing was very happy to discuss Dan Dao with Lin Bai.

In the course of seven days of exchange, Gu Yueqing felt that Lin Bai was unfathomably profound, especially in his mastery of Dan Dao, which she felt was almost on par with a king-level alchemist.

Gu Yueqing asked curiously, "Brother Lin, are you a king-level alchemist?"

Lin Bai shook his head and said with a smile, "No, I’m not."

Gu Yueqing said, "But your understanding of the pharmacology of spiritual medicine and the study of alchemy techniques has almost completely surpassed my Master, and even surpassed a ninth-grade alchemy master!"

Lin Bai shook his head and laughed, "Haha, I just like to read books in my spare time, that’s all learned from books."

Gu Yueqing nodded slowly, "I didn’t expect Brother Lin to be so knowledgeable and yet so humble. This has really been an eye-opener for me."

"In the future, Qing’er will definitely take Brother Lin as a role model and study Dan Dao diligently!"

Gu Yueqing said with a gentle smile.

Lin Bai responded with a laugh, "Your talent in Dan Dao is originally quite good. In our exchanges, although you don’t understand many things, you catch on quickly after just a hint, which shows that you have exceptional talent."

"If you concentrate on studying Dan Dao, in the future you will certainly become a king-level alchemist, or even... an emperor-level alchemist!"

Lin Bai was full of praise for Gu Yueqing’s talent in Dan Dao.

Upon hearing Lin Bai’s encouragement, excitement and anticipation shone in Gu Yueqing’s beautiful eyes.

Lin Bai smiled faintly, noncommittal.

However, Lin Bai was unaware that his casual words today would eventually lead to the creation of a female sovereign in Dan Dao who could refine the elixir of immortality!
