While Ling Yunfeng was immersed in alchemy, two beautiful figures appeared in a quiet small valley in the back mountain. This small valley was where Ling Yunfeng had barbecued the day before yesterday.
"Sister Xueyan, how are you? Have you found Brother Yunfeng?" A girl in a green dress asked a girl in a purple outfit beside her.
"No, Mengyu, I think Yun Feng is doing something, but he doesn't want others to know. We accidentally discovered him here that day. He probably went somewhere else. I think we should stop looking for him.
It wouldn't be good if Yun Feng found out." The woman in purple clothes hesitated and said. Listening to their conversation, it was known that these two people were Ling Xueyan and Ling Mengyu who came to the back mountain to look for Ling Yunfeng.
"It's okay, let's continue looking." Ling Mengyu said, and then took Ling Xueyuan's hand and went elsewhere...
In the cave, Ling Yunfeng still stood in front of the medicine cauldron with his eyes closed. The soul power in his mind burst out and enveloped the entire medicine cauldron. Not a single movement inside the medicine cauldron could escape his prying eyes.
However, Ling Yunfeng's condition was not very good at this time. His face was dripping with sweat, his messy hair was stuck to his cheeks, his pale face was stained with some pitch black charcoal ash, he looked gray-haired, and his body smelled a bit.
The fluctuations are disordered, probably due to excessive consumption caused by long-term refining of medicine.
In the medicine cauldron, at this time, the prototype of an elixir appeared in the light yellow flames of martial energy. It slowly rotated in the flames. Waves of faint medicinal fragrance filled the air and floated throughout the cave. Ling Yun was stunned.
Feng's mind, which was dizzy due to excessive fatigue, suddenly became much clearer.
Ling Yunfeng, who was extremely nervous, didn't know that at this time, two beautiful figures were walking slowly dozens of meters away from the cave where he was, looking around as if they were looking for something. Apart from Ling Xueyan and
Naturally, there will be no one else outside Ling Mengyou.
"Meng You, it seems that we can't find Yun Feng's whereabouts today. I think we should go back." Ling Xueyan glanced at the empty valley and said with a somewhat disappointed expression.
"Okay, when brother Yun Feng returns, we must ask him where he has gone. It took us so long to search." Ling Mengyu said angrily, seeming a little aggrieved.
"Let's go, he didn't ask you to come to him. Who can blame you for coming by yourself? Huh?..." Ling Xueyan said with a slight smile, and then she turned around and left with a slight lift, but at this moment she suddenly
She paused, turned around, and looked in a direction behind her. She felt a faint energy coming from there.
"What's the matter? Sister Xueyan?" Seeing the former's behavior, Ling Mengyu asked doubtfully, and looked around, but didn't find anything.
"Mengyou, feel it carefully and see if you find something different about this place. There seems to be an energy fluctuation?" Ling Xueyan said, staring at that place.
"Well! It seems that there is really an energy fluctuation." Hearing this, Ling Mengyu's eyes calmed down, and after careful perception, he found that there was a subtle energy fluctuation not far away.
"Eh! No, in addition to the energy fluctuations, there seems to be a faint medicinal scent." Ling Mengyou raised her nose and said.
"There is still a medicinal fragrance? Is there some elixir that is about to mature?" Ling Xueyuan said. Generally, when elixirs are mature, they have the strongest fragrance, and they are also accompanied by a faint energy fluctuation.
"It's possible, let's go over and have a look." Ling Mengyu said, and immediately walked towards the direction where the energy wave was coming from.
"Yeah!" Ling Xueyan didn't object and hurriedly followed her. If there was really a mature elixir, they wouldn't let it go.
Almost not long after, they followed the subtle energy fluctuations and the faint scent of medicine to the outside of a small cave. The energy fluctuations and the scent of medicine came from this cave.
"Sister Xueyan, this is it? Let's go take a look." Ling Mengyu said, and then walked over.
"Wait a minute, usually there will be a guardian beast next to the elixir. Besides, you can see that the huge rocks outside the cave were obviously piled up by man. Someone should have discovered this elixir before. We'd better be careful." Ling Xueyan hurriedly pulled it.
The former reminded me.
"That's true, so what should we do now?" Ling Mengyu asked.
"Don't move here, I'll go take a look first." Ling Xueyuan said.
"Okay! Then be careful." Ling Mengyu hesitated for a while and nodded.
Ling Xueyan nodded and cautiously approached the cave, paying close attention to her surroundings to guard against some unknown dangers.
As Ling Xueyan gradually approached the cave, she could clearly feel that the energy fluctuations were becoming more and more intense, and the scent of the medicine was getting stronger. Seeing this, she became more certain that there should be elixirs in the cave.
But what made her a little confused was that it seemed that as she got closer to the cave, the temperature of the surrounding air became higher, and there seemed to be a hot breath filling the cave. Could it be that this elixir had fire attributes?
After walking a few more steps, through the gaps between the stones piled at the entrance, the scene inside the cave suddenly appeared before her eyes.
Seeing a yellow light in the cave, Ling Xueyan couldn't help but feel a little confused. Her eyes swept across the cave, and then suddenly stopped in the center of the cave, with a look of surprise on her delicate face.
In the center of the cave, a young man stood motionless, his eyes closed, and his palms pressed against a simple medicine cauldron in front of him.
Inside the medicine cauldron, a pale yellow blazing flame was burning. In the center of the flame, a pale yellow pill prototype was suspended, slowly spinning, with waves of subtle energy fluctuations carrying a strong medicinal flavor.
The fragrance comes out and floats in the air.
Ling Xueyan's surprised eyes slowly moved up. When she stopped at the young man's delicate and delicate face, which was slightly immature but full of strong edges and corners, the look of surprise on her face suddenly turned into shock, and her soft jade fingers gently
Covering her soft and attractive red lips, there was a little disbelief in her eyes.
"How could it be him? How could it be possible, how could he be...did everyone see it wrong?" Ling Xueyan looked at the young man in the cave and murmured in her heart. She felt that her mind was a little hard to recover. A person considered by the family to be a waste
, the boy who was bullied since childhood turned out to be the most noble profession on the continent - an alchemist.
Ling Xueyan also saw an alchemist refining medicine in her family, so she could tell at a glance that the young man in the cave was refining elixirs.
And from the energy fluctuations and the strong medicinal fragrance coming from the medicine cauldron, she could tell that the young man was refining an upper-grade elixir, which meant that the young man had become a
They are real alchemists with high grades, rather than apprentice alchemists who are in the learning stage.
"Hiss!" Ling Xueyan couldn't help but take a breath when she thought of this, her heart was extremely shocked. This boy is only sixteen years old this year, not even seventeen.
A sixteen-year-old alchemist, even the lowest first-grade alchemist, is probably very rare in this continent. Such a talent for alchemy is really terrifying.
This is the first time she has seen such a young alchemist. If he is properly trained, this young man will be able to become a high-level alchemist in just a few decades. By then, the status and power of the Ling family will be huge.
A rising tide lifts all boats.
Alchemist, that is a rare creature on the continent. No matter where he goes, he is the target of competition from all the major forces.
You must know that although the Ling family is one of the four major families in Qingfu City, there are only three alchemists in the entire family. The highest level is a second-grade alchemist, and the rest are two first-grade alchemists.
But even for an alchemist of this level, no one in the family dares to neglect them. Even the old patriarch was quite polite when he saw them.
"Isn't he unable to practice? How could he become an alchemist?" Ling Xueyan wondered, and then quickly figured out something: "Oh! It seems that the whole family has misunderstood. Not only can he practice
, and he is also a noble alchemist, with excellent alchemy and cultivation talents.
To be able to become a high-level alchemist, his martial arts cultivation must be at least that of a first-level warrior. Yes, only warriors can condense the elixir fire to refine pills. For such a young first-level warrior, this talent is not bad."
"But since he is not only able to practice, but is also a noble alchemist, why doesn't he tell the family? With his talent, he will definitely be trained by the family, and he won't have to suffer so much." Ling Xueyan.
She frowned slightly and murmured in confusion.
"Maybe he has his own difficulties, and grandpa also mentioned to me that it seems that someone is trying to harm him, but for some reason grandpa can't do anything about it and can only let it happen. Maybe he has noticed something himself, so he has been
Just bear with it.
How could such a young boy endure all kinds of humiliation for so many years? How much perseverance does that require..."
Thinking of this, Ling Xueyan couldn't help but take a breath again. She suddenly felt that she had become a stranger to the younger brother she had watched since childhood.
At this moment, she suddenly felt distressed, and wanted to hold the man in front of her who was extremely talented, but for some reason had to bear the humiliation of a useless person, to comfort him. As a man, it was not easy for him.
, no matter how determined a man is, there will definitely be moments of weakness.
It is easy for a person to live in an ignoble way, but it is difficult to endure humiliation and bear the burden! Being generous and generous is just a quick move, but silently enduring or even cooperating with others' contempt, having a peerless talent but treating yourself as a clown for some reason... It is really difficult.
!
Of course she didn't know that Ling Yunfeng didn't hold back for long, it was just that her cousin was dead and her body was now occupied by another soul.
