Long Road to Stardom

Many male disciples nearby looked over here, and a few female disciples also looked over here with jealous eyes.

Lin Xing saw all of this and quickly pulled Mu Xiaoxiao to the side to block the group of people's gaze.

Mu Xiaoxiao asked with a puzzled look on her face, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Lin Xing looked at Mu Xiaoxiao's face and couldn't help but pinch it. It was exactly the feeling she had imagined.

He wanted to pinch it again, but was stopped by Mu Xiaoxiao.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her junior sister who was younger than her, put her hands on her waist and said helplessly, "I am several years older than you. Your behavior makes me think that I am younger than you?"

Suddenly her eyes widened, "How come you have already reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Building!"

Lin Xing said with a malicious look, "Why don't you just call me 'Little Senior Sister'?"

Mu Xiaoxiao saw Lin Xing's expression and knew that she had a bad taste. She curled her lips and refused to call her "Junior Sister".

When Lin Xing saw this expression, he couldn't help but laugh and wanted to pinch Mu Xiaoxiao's face with his hand.

Mu Xiaoxiao would never do as she wished, and quickly took a few steps back to keep some distance.

Lin Xing withdrew her hand awkwardly, then said with a sly smile, "Since you don't want to call me Junior Sister, it's not too much for me to pinch your face as a punishment!"

Mu Xiaoxiao refused to comply and said stubbornly, "No matter what, I am older than you. I will never call you Junior Sister. Just forget about it!"

Lin Xing spread his hands and could only respond helplessly, then asked, "Xiao Xiao, are you coming to the Alchemy Hall to take on some alchemy tasks?"

I saw Xiaoxiao slap her thighs, pull me along and say, "I almost forgot about today's important matter while talking to you. The peak master is coming to the Alchemy Hall to teach alchemy today. Let's go there quickly."

After hearing this, Lin Xing sighed in his heart that he was lucky. He didn't expect to meet the peak master who came to teach him by chance. He had never watched others making pills before.

Lin Xing followed Xiao Xiao to the second floor of the Alchemy Hall with great interest.

When we got to the second floor, there were many people waiting inside.

However, Lin Xing still caught the resentful look in his eyes for a moment.

Mu Xiaoxiao took Lin Xing and found a place to sit down on the second floor.

Just sat down.

Lin Xing asked Xiaoxiao who the person wearing blue clothes in the front was.

"You don't even know this. She is the daughter of the peak master, 'Lan Xiyue'. And you are an inner disciple of Danfeng?" Xiaoxiao said in surprise.

She had indeed never heard of this person, but she could not have mistaken the resentful look just now. Could it be that the look was not directed at her, but at Xiaoxiao beside her?

But how had Xiaoxiao offended this person? This person has such a high status, he should not target Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xing couldn't figure out why for a moment.

However, not long after she started thinking, the peak master arrived and quickly stood up and saluted.

This was the second time she met the leader of Dan Peak. The first time was on the first day of the sect competition.

The peak master was wearing a palace dress and had her hair in a bun with some hair on top. She looked gentle and elegant. Her appearance was indeed similar to the previous 'Lan Xiyue', both of them were ladylike, but her temperament seemed completely different.

Lin Xing looked around stealthily for a while, then listened carefully to the Peak Master explaining the various precautions to take when refining the elixir, the situations that might occur, how to resolve them, and some uses of spiritual herbs.

Two hours later, the Peak Master stopped explaining and prepared to refine a batch of pills for us to see.

Lin Xing was fascinated by the lecture during these two hours. He learned a lot from it and also understood some problems he encountered when refining pills.

If she could find more alchemists to communicate with, her alchemy skills would surely be even better. She heard that there was a Dan City in Zhongzhou, which was a place every alchemist longed for.

Lin Xing looked at Xiao Xiao beside him and saw that her eyes were shining. She must like refining pills very much, unlike her who only did it to earn spirit stones and facilitate her own practice.

Coming back to his senses, Lin Xing looked at the spiritual herbs placed by the Peak Master, and roughly understood that what she was going to refine was a fourth-grade elixir, the 'Yuan Ling Dan', which was an elixir that could speed up the recovery of the body's spiritual energy during the Jin Dan period. Although it was not as difficult as the 'Jin Li Dan' she was going to refine, it was not much different.

Lin Xing looked ahead more carefully, fearing that he would miss some important steps.

After a cup of tea, the Peak Master had finished refining the pills. Not only did it take a short time, but the finished pills also reached the perfect number of sixteen. Moreover, each pill was of top-grade quality, and some were even top-grade pills.

He is indeed worthy of being a seventh-grade alchemist. He is indeed amazing. I believe it won’t be long before he breaks through to the eighth grade.

However, the 'Dan Ning Jue' she had just used seemed to be missing a few moves from what she had learned in the main hall. It seemed that the woman in the portrait in the main hall was no ordinary person. She really had found a treasure. It would be great if she had the chance to go there again.

Just as Lin Xing finished thinking, he heard a voice, "Xiaoxiao, come to the front and explain your opinion."

Another resentful look came over, and although it was fleeting, Lin Xing still noticed it.

She suddenly understood why this person targeted Xiaoxiao. It must be because Xiaoxiao was valued by the peak master and he was jealous of her.

When this is over, she will give Xiao Xiao a reminder.

Mu Xiaoxiao came to the front of the stage and explained her understanding of the alchemy just now. She was a little reserved at first, but when she explained something she liked, her whole body seemed to shine and she talked incessantly.

Lin Xing learned a lot after listening to Xiaoxiao's words. She didn't expect that her talent in alchemy was so high. In time, her achievements in alchemy would not be lower than that of the peak master. No wonder she was valued so much.

After Xiaoxiao returned to her seat, the peak master explained for another hour and then left.

This trip to the Alchemy Hall is really worth it.

Seeing that most people on the second floor had left, Xiaoxiao was trying to pull me away, but I pushed her back to her seat, looking at me in confusion.

Lin Xing reminded Xiao Xiao to be careful of Lan Xiyue, but when he saw her look of disbelief, he shouted, "Impossible."

Lin Xing knew it would be hard for people to believe without evidence, but he still warned her and asked her to promise to be careful before letting her go.

If she were inside the sect, this 'Lan Xiyue' would definitely not dare to act rashly. But if she were to leave the sect, who could guarantee what would happen?

Moreover, Xiaoxiao often went to the 'Dark Forest' to collect spiritual herbs, so it would be easy for her to take advantage of him. The more Lin Xing thought about it, the more scared he became. He took out the jade token and the Thousand Miles Escape Talisman that the head of the secret realm had given him before, and handed them to Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao was very reluctant, but still took it under the threat of Lin Xing's eyes.

Lin Xing then relaxed a little and repeatedly reminded everyone to be careful of Lan Xiyue.
