Seekers Without Bounds

Chapter 34 Becoming popular

As soon as you enter the material receiving room, it is very large with a very long table in the front.

The table was filled with prepared alchemy ingredients and separated by a hollow iron railing.

There were rows of long and tall cabinets at the back, at least ten of them at a glance.

There were quite a few people inside, some pushing carts moving between the counters.

Some people were climbing up and down ladders looking for various raw materials. It was very lively.

People who pick up the ingredients hand the ingredient list to the left and then pick up the required ingredients on the far right.

The layout of the huge room is extremely neat and simple, and the movement is also very efficient.

"Hey, what a rare guest! Junior Sister Lin is here."

The man who was speaking had a fat face, a medium build, and an ordinary appearance.

But the sparse hair and bald head make him look very old.

His eyes were fixed on Lin Jixiang, with a wretched look on his face.

"Brother Du, this is my material request form. Please prepare the raw materials I need."

After all, Lin Jixiang needed a favor from Du Shixiong, so even though he hated him very much, he still spoke politely.

"No, no, Junior Sister Lin's matter is my top priority, I'll deal with it immediately."

Du Shixiong took the list, deliberately took it wrong a few times, and touched Lin Jixiang's hand a few times.

Then he put his hand to his nose and took a few deep breaths.

He was acting like a pig without restraint. No matter how well-mannered Lin Jixiang was, disgust was written all over his face.

"Old Du, take mine too." Zhu Qiying said.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Wait until you find a match for Junior Sister Lin." Du Shixiong has a strong hostility towards all men around Lin Jixiang, even those who are as fat as Zhu Qiying.

"Junior Sister Lin, I recently found a kind of orange eyebrow tea. It tastes refreshing and sweet, and has the miraculous effect of refreshing and beautifying the face. I have some free time today, so you might as well try it."

Du Shixiong enthusiastically invited Lin Jixiang.

"Forget about today. Qinglu's alchemy task is very urgent. Senior Brother Du, please prepare it quickly. If I delay the alchemy time, I will be punished by the higher-ups."

Lin Jixiang was in no mood to drink tea with Du Shixiong.

"You are the recognized number one alchemist in Qinglu. If anyone dares to punish you, I will beat him to a pulp."

Du Shixiong was so aggressive, as if someone really wanted to punish Lin Jixiang.

When Zhu Qiying heard what Du Shixiong said, the corners of his grinning mouth twitched noticeably.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Du, for your kindness. My ability in alchemy is average, and Senior Brother Zhu should be the best alchemist in Qinglu."

Lin Jixiang doesn't care about the title of No. 1 in Qinglu at all.

"No, no, they are all empty names."

Zhu Qiying, who has always regarded himself as the best in Qinglu, cannot accept being surpassed by others.

Du Shixiong's words, whether intentional or not, still irritated him.

Lin Jixiang knew Zhu Qiying's character very well, and she had no intention of falling out with him.

I might as well give him the title of the best in Qinglu so that I can have some peace and quiet.

Du Shixiong tried every means to invite Lin Jixiang to have tea, but Lin Jixiang was unmoved. He refused to go anywhere. He just waited at the door to collect the materials and leave.

Zhu Qiying's target was Shi Xunfei, who was also confused.

The last time we met, he was in such a rebellious state. How come he suddenly became like this?

A Du Shi bear was circling around Lin Jixiang like a butterfly.

Zhu Qiying transformed into a buzzing little bee, surrounding Shi Xunfei and asking about his well-being.

Although there were many things, under the care of Du Shixiong, Lin Jixiang's alchemy materials were quickly assembled. There were two wheelbarrows of alchemy materials in total.

"Senior Brother Du, I'll take one cart back first, and I'll send someone to get the rest." Lin Jixiang said.

Shi Xunfei was pushing a cart and preparing to set off when Du Shixiong started pushing another cart.

"Don't bother the others. You have few people and the task is tight. I'll help you deliver it."

"No, no, you have a lot of things to do in the material receiving room and can't be delayed." Lin Jixiang really didn't want to face Du Shixiong again.

"It's okay, we'll be there soon. We have a lot of people, so it won't be a big deal if I'm missing." Du Shixiong no longer gave Lin Jixiang the chance to shirk responsibility.

Pushing the cart towards Qinglu, Lin Jixiang rolled his eyes and could only follow.

Along the way, Du Shixiong kept talking to Lin Jixiang, asking about where to enjoy the flowers.

A talking bird flew over from somewhere, etc.

Lin Jixiang’s answer was basically: “Well, oh, ah, no need.”

Anyone with a discerning eye could see Lin Jixiang's attitude, but Du Shixiong was not discouraged at all and was still very excited.

On the other side, Zhu Qiying showed his goodwill to Shi Xunfei crazily: "Junior Brother Shi, we in Qinglu rest once every hour. It is absolutely humane and responsible for the health of our disciples. If you are tired, there are special people to massage and relax. The treatment is definitely the best in Danhuo Room."

Lin Jixiang knew Zhu Qiying very well and watched Zhu Qiying's performance quietly throughout.

Before Shi Xunfei could speak, Lin Jixiang said, "Brother Zhu, it's a bit too much to do that in front of me."

Zhu Qiying came up immediately and said with a playful smile: "No way, Junior Sister Lin, we both belong to the same Qinglu. What's the difference between your place and mine? Let Junior Brother Shi follow me to refine pills for two days, and then let him go back to your place."

"Since there is no difference between you and me, isn't it the same in my case as in yours? You have strong soldiers and horses, but I only have a few people in Qinglu." Lin Jixiang said.

"Junior Sister Lin, your men are all elites, one is worth two. Shi Xunfei is a beginner, I will help you train him for two days. I will definitely not let you suffer any loss, and I will let the brothers Mu Nan and Mu Bei help with your Qinglu."

Zhu Qiying directly played cards with Lin Jixiang, exchanging two for one.

"No need. Although my Qinglu has few people, they work better together. Too many people would be disadvantageous."

Lin Jixiang refused directly.

Lin Jixiang didn't want to be entangled by the two of them anymore, so he walked quickly and soon arrived at Qinglu.

Huang Fangyuan and Wang Junyu saw a very interesting scene.

Du Shixiong pushed a wheelbarrow and chased Lin Jixiang, while Zhu Qiying stuck to Shi Xunfei who was pushing the cart, each of them had their own wants.

"Okay, now that we're here, we all know each other pretty well, so let's just go."

Finally they arrived at Qinglu, and Lin Jixiang rudely ordered them to leave.

"Junior Sister Lin, if you need help, just let me know. I'll be there at your beck and call." Du Shixiong still wanted to delay a little longer.

Huang Fangyuan and Wang Junyu took the ingredients for the elixir, and Lin Jixiang closed the door directly without even a cup of hot tea.

Only Zhu Qiying and Du Shixiong were left outside the door looking at each other. They smiled awkwardly at each other and could only go their separate ways.

In Lin Zhan's second division, Yu Renlong was seriously injured, but Huang Weiyong did not dare to make any noise.

He spent a lot of money to buy some healing pills, silently treated Yu Renlong, and then sent out a letter that had been hidden in the bottom of the box.

In the alchemy furnace, Lin Jixiang did not deliberately ask who leaked the news.

But there were only these few people in Qinglu, and look at Huang Fangyuan's evasive eyes.

I probably know who let the secret slip. Now that it has come to this, there is no point in saying more.

Lin Jixiang didn't want to let something affect his alchemy: "All the ingredients are ready. Let's make the alchemy."

Let’s start with Frost Pill. Having practiced Frost Pill once, Shi Xunfei is more familiar with it.

There are many opportunities to add wind, without Lin Jixiang's reminder, and the control of wind strength is more flexible. This way, alchemy is more effective.

It originally took thirty-six hours to refine the frost pill, but Lin Jixiang only spent thirty hours, and the output of three-leaf frost was five more than last time.

"You have something here, kid." Wang Junyu sorted out the frost pills produced and patted Shi Xunfei on the back.

Shi Xunfei just smiled. He was already very happy to be able to help.

Thinking back to my past, when I was in Shifeng Village, I seemed redundant everywhere.

"The Frost Pill has been refined. Shi Xunfei, you continue to cool down the Green Furnace. We need to produce a few more furnaces of Huiyuan Pills in the remaining time."

Lin Jixiang did not exchange for the Huiyuan Pill last time, he only exchanged for the raw materials for refining the Huiyuan Pill.

After working non-stop for several days, Qinglu's supply of Huiyuan Pills had been almost consumed, and he needed to refine them himself.

Huang Fangyuan knew that he had spoken out of turn while drunk, so he worked very hard to refine the elixir, and the most unpleasant Qinglu was put on without a sound.

And shortly after the furnace was turned off, Shi Xunfei's spiritual wind followed Huang Fangyuan.

Help lower the temperature around Huang Fangyuan. Take out all the waste from refining the Frost Pill.

After cleaning the inner wall, you can start refining the Huiyuan Pill.

Over there, Zhu Qiying had already finished refining the Huiyuan Pill. After sending people to investigate, he discovered that Lin Jixiang's Qinglu was still refining the pill behind closed doors.

Zhu Qiying had no choice but to wait outside the Qinglu Gate until Lin Jixiang and the others finished refining.

The difficulty of refining Huiyuan Pill is lower than that of Frost Pill. Under Lin Jixiang's command, Shi Xunfei only needs very little wind spiritual power.

In twelve hours, one hundred and twenty Huiyuan Pills were refined.

Most of them were at level two or above, and even though they had to work overtime, they were still very excited.

"Wang Junyu, you go and hand in the elixirs. Only Frost Pills are needed." Lin Jixiang said as he looked at the bottles of Huiyuan Pills.

"Huang Fangyuan, Shi Xunfei, please clean the alchemy furnace. You both did a good job. Let's divide the pills together later." When they heard that the pills were going to be divided, they worked even harder.

Zhu Qiying, who had waited for twelve hours, immediately approached when he saw someone coming out.

"Junyu, I've finished refining the elixir. You guys have been working overtime for quite a long time."

"Brother Zhu, please be busy handing over the pills. Let's talk later." Wang Junyu just wanted to get the pills quickly, so he pushed the cart full of pill bottles and trotted away.

Zhu Qiying could only see his back. He muttered to himself, "I'm waiting here till death. I'm determined to pry Shi Xunfei over."
