Chapter 367
by“Two months ago？” Yang Kai furrowed his brows. “Two months ago, I was still in the Dark Cloud Evil Land. Naturally, you couldn’t see me. I only stayed on Cloud Hidden Peak for two or three months and then left.”
After a pause, he asked suspiciously, “Since Elder Si has been to Cloud Hidden Peak, why didn’t you ask the master to refine the pill for you？”
Lv Si smiled bitterly and said, “At that time, Medicine King Valley was in a state of rejuvenation, and Master Xiao was also in a dilemma. According to his disciple, he seemed to be researching something. This old man was fortunate enough to climb Cloud Hidden Peak, but he didn’t even see the master’s face.”
When talking about these things, there was no embarrassment on Lv Si’s face, only a look of helplessness.
This is Xiao Fusheng！
Even if his strength wasn’t very strong, even if the Medicine King Valley was only a second-rate sect, for a high-ranking person like Lu Si to go there, Xiao Fusheng could choose to see him or not.
And Lu Si didn’t dare to have the slightest bit of complaint. In his words and tone, he still respectfully addressed Xiao Fusheng as ‘Master’！
“Oh…” Yang Kai smiled strangely and said, “What if I can get Master to help you refine that Mysterious Pill？ Will what you said just now still count？”
“You？” Lu Si looked at him with a strange expression and slowly shook his head. “How could a person like Master listen to you？”
Outside, Lu Liang also interjected, “Young Master Yang, some big words can’t be said casually.”
Yang Kai looked at Lu Si and also shook his head. “Whether it’s big words or not, we’ll know after trying. Although I didn’t stay on Cloud Hidden Peak for a long time, asking Master to help me refine a Mysterious Pill is still something I can do.”
Lu Si was stunned and stared at Yang Kai with burning eyes, not blinking.
Outside, Lu Liang and the others were also extremely shocked. They all knew the great name of Xiao Fusheng and were even more aware of his current status. Even the number one person in the Lu family was turned away, so what did Yang Kai rely on to get Master Xiao to help him refine a Mysterious Pill？
That was a mid-grade Mysterious-level pill, not an ungraded pill. Even if it was refined by Master Xiao, it would still take a lot of effort and time.
“Once you pass this village, there won’t be this inn. Elder Si has to consider carefully.” Yang Kai looked at Lu Si with a smile.
Lv Si’s expression was uncertain, obviously his heart was also extremely conflicted not knowing whether to believe Yang Kai or not.
Logically speaking, the young master of the Yang family has no need to deceive himself, but he is just a young man. It is normal for young people to like to brag and show off.
Youdaoplaceholder0 and contemplation for a long time, Lv Si suddenly said, “It’s not that the old man doesn’t trust Young Master Yang. Since you dare to say so, then presumably your relationship with Master Xiao is not shallow.”
Yang Kai neither affirmed nor denied, with a calm expression.
“Young Master Yang has also stayed on Cloud Hidden Peak for a while, then the old man will take the liberty to ask a few questions.” Lv Si obviously wanted to verify whether what Yang Kai said was true or not.
“Elder Si just ask.”
Seeing that he didn’t have any panicked expression, Lv Si also nodded slightly, pondering for a moment and said, “Master Xiao has disciple. Has Young Master Yang ever met her?”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “Didn’t Elder Si inquire about what the disciple’s surname is？”
“It seems to be called Dong Qingyan, who is the eldest daughter of the Dong family.”
“The Dong family has a marriage alliance with the Yang family. Dong Qingyan is my cousin！”
Lv Si was suddenly stunned, and then suddenly recalled this matter, exclaiming, “So that person is Young Master Yang！”
“Which person？” Yang Kai wasfeel uncertain for a moment.
“When the old man went to Cloud Hidden Peak, he heard people say that Master Xiao set up a test to accept disciples more than half a year ago. There were a man and a woman who successfully passed. The woman is Dong Qingyan, and the man is said to be the bodyguard of the Dong family’s young lady… Now it seems that that person is by no means a bodyguard, but clearly Young Master Yang！”
“That’s right！” Yang Kai didn’t deny it either. He nodded and said, “But I’m not Master’s apprentice.”
The people of the Lu family heard these words and were all moved.
They never expected that there would be such a connection between Yang Kai and Xiao Fusheng. Passing Xiao Fusheng’s test means being Xiao Fusheng’s disciple. With such an alchemy master covering him, even if he fails in the battle for the succession in the Yang family, it’s not a big problem. He will always have a bright future in the future.
Lv Liang’s eyes flickered, and he seemed to feel that he should re-examine Yang Kai.
Lv Si now believed eighty percent in his heart. But for the sake of insurance, he still asked the last question： “The old man lived on Cloud Hidden Peak for a few days and was fortunate enough to see something that Master Xiao was researching from the hands of Miss Dong. May I ask Young Master Yang, what was the thing that the master was researching？”
Yang Kai’s expression was leisurely, and he said casually： “A formation！”
The thing that can make Xiao Fusheng scratch his head and worry must be related to alchemy.
It should be the alchemy spirit formation that Yang Kai entrusted Xia Ning Shang to give to Master Xiao when he left Cloud Hidden Peak.
Lu Si’s heart trembled, finally determining that the relationship between Yang Kai and Xiao Fusheng was indeed extraordinary. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know this information.
“It should be such a formation！” Yang Kai said as he casually drew a spiritual formation on the ground.
Lu Si quickly held his breath and stared intently. This formation was mysterious and complex, and it was unclear what it meant even when looking at it. Even though Lu Si had seen it once before, he could only recall a small part of the content and couldn’t remember the whole picture at all.
But Yang Kai seemed to pick it up at will at this moment and drew the complete formation casually, obviously being very familiar with it.
“That’s it！” Lu Si nodded repeatedly. Seeing it for the second time, he still couldn’t understand it very well. Closing his eyes to recall, he couldn’t recall too much content either.
After drawing, Yang Kai casually erased the spiritual formation and looked up at Lu Si.
At this moment, this expert of the Lu family finally didn’t dare to look down on Yang Kai anymore, knowing that the mysterious pill might really have to be entrusted to this young man in front of him.
With a nervous expression and some anticipation, Lu Si even asked carefully： “Young Master Yang, about that mysterious pill…”
“Give me pen and paper, and I can write a letter now！”
“Quickly bring pen and paper.” Lu Si quickly shouted outside, and a touch of redness appeared on his old face.
The people outside the house were in a state of turmoil. Hearing Lu Si’s shout, they couldn’t help but shiver. Lu Liang quickly ordered one person： “Go quickly！”
That Divine Movement Realm expert didn’t dare to delay in the slightest. His body turned into a cyan light and directly disappeared from the spot.
In just ten breaths, he returned again, holding a pen and ink in his hand. He walked in respectfully, placed them in front of Yang Kai, and then backed out respectfully.
“Young Master Yang, please！” Lu Si personally spread out the paper, dipped the pen in the ink, and handed it to Yang Kai.
Yang Kai smiled slightly and picked up the pen to write.
Lu Si stared eagerly, not willing to miss a single word.
Yang Kai’s letter was written very plainly, and the content was just as Lu Si had expected, requesting Master Xiao to refine a pill for Lu Si.
After writing, Yang Kai directly handed it over. Lu Si circulated his true essence to dry the handwriting, carefully folded it and put it in his arms. He also patted his chest solemnly and let out a long sigh of relief.
This time when he goes, I’m afraid he won’t have to be turned away like last time.
“Young Master Yang, you must be laughing at me.” After doing all this, Lu Si then bowed ed with some embarrassment and said.
“It doesn’t matter！”
“I also ask Young Master Yang to stay in the Lu family for a few more days. I will go to Cloud Hidden Peak now. If the pill can really be refined, I will definitely send the jade bed over when I come back！” Lu Si said sincerely.
Yang Kai furrowed his brows： “That won’t do. I need the jade bed now. I still have to return to the Central Capital.”
Lu Si immediately revealed a difficult look: “But this is a mid-grade Mysterious Rank pill. Even if Master Xiao takes action, it’s not certain that it can be successfully refined. In case of failure, I still need this jade bed.”
What he said was also true. Although Xiao Fusheng was capable of refining high-grade Mysterious Rank pills, in the matter of alchemy, no one could guarantee success. Maybe Master Xiao would fail to refine it due to a bad state one day.
If that really happened and the jade bed was gone, Lu Si would have nowhere to cry.
“Well, you can take another thing to the master for me to ensure the success of the alchemy！” Yang Kai furrowed his brows and thought for a while, then shouted loudly outside： “Who has any useless jade on them？”
The people outside the house looked at each other and all fixed their eyes on a piece of suet white jade pendant hanging from Lu Liang’s waist.
Lu Liang subconsciously covered the jade pendant and stared at the crowd: “What are you doing? This is my love token. I’ve been wearing it for many years!
“Bring it in！” Lu Si shouted, and Lu Liang immediately fell silent.
He walked in, took off the jade pendant from his waist, nodded and bowed, and handed it to Yang Kai with a flattering smile, asking： “Young Master Yang, what do you want this jade of mine for？”
Yang Kai grinned, reached out to take the jade pendant, and then circulated his True Yuan, slamming it hard onto the jade.
Lv Liang’s heart suddenly cooled. Under his nervous gaze, that palm precisely bombarded the jade pendant, yet it didn’t damage it in the slightest. It just seemed that some True Yuan had drilled into it.
Concentrating and observing, both Lv Si and Lv Liang were amazed in their hearts, and the more they looked, the more surprised and impressed they became.
How could the two of them not see that Yang Kai was manipulating the True Yuan to create some marks in the jade pendant.
In simple terms, he was using this method to send a message！
To convey some information that was not easy to express in words！
But it was easy to say, yet difficult to do. This required very delicate and precise manipulation of the True Yuan to achieve this. If the output of True Yuan was too little, it wouldn’t work. If it was too much, it also wouldn’t work！
After a long while, Yang Kai finally withdrew his palm and handed the jade pendant to Lv Si, saying, “You give this to the Grandmaster, and I guarantee that you will succeed in refining the pill！”
The tone was quite confident.
Lv Si solemnly received it.
Yang Kai grinned again and said, “However, the information in this jade can only be spied on once and then it will disappear. So Elder Si must take good care of it on the way.”
Lv Si was stunned, and then shook his head with a bitter smile, knowing that the information he left in the jade was extremely important and didn’t want him to know, so he used this method.
Not minding either, Lv Si nodded seriously.
Lv Liang also said longingly at the side, “Elder Si, this is the token of love between me and my wife many years ago. You must bring it back!
Lv Si glared at him, and Lv Liang laughed dryly and quickly retreated.
“Can this old man ask what information is in this jade？” Lu Si couldn’t help but be a little curious.
“It’s still a spirit array, but it’s different from the previous one. You take it to the grandmaster, and he will know what it is.” Yang Kai smiled lightly.
When leaving Cloud Hidden Peak back then, Yang Kai only spied one spirit array from the True Alchemy Secret Art. With no other choice, he could only leave that spirit array behind.
