The divine beast recognized its master, and the dragon girl, destined to kill him, went to the spiri

three days later

The Yueyi Kingdom's alchemy venue was packed with spiritual practitioners. This grand alchemy conference not only attracted all the young generation of alchemists, but also attracted countless spiritual practitioners to come and watch.

"Mother Queen, I'm really annoyed. That scumbag Wei is bothering me again. He sticks to me like a dog-skin plaster every day."

Liu Nanxu stepped forward, took Liu Zhuyi's hand, and said coquettishly, "Please help your daughter to criticize the Wei family again."

Liu Zhuyi's expression was gentle, and she patted her hand gently. "Okay, but... it's not just because of you. Over the past few years, your mother has been so worried about your father's affairs that it has made some scum even more daring and reckless. They almost forgot whose surname Yueyi Kingdom was named after."

Liu Zhuyi didn't know what she was thinking about, her eyes suddenly turned cold. After the alchemy conference was over, she would have to clean up some termites.

Liu Nanxu suddenly grasped Liu Zhuyi's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, Queen Mother. The old ancestor said that Daddy will be fine. We naturally have to believe what the old ancestor said."

"Well, the Queen Mother is going out to judge. Please feel free to do as you please. Remember to bring your guards with you."

On the other side, the place was bustling with people and the seats were packed.

"Everyone, let us first welcome the judges participating in this selection: Elder Li, His Majesty Emperor Liu, Zhang Peng, President of the Alchemist Association, and Gu Changfeng, Master of Danwang Valley."

Suddenly, loud screams rang out again.

"Wow, I didn't expect all the judges this time to be so senior! By the way, have you noticed that this competition is much more rigorous than previous years, whether it's the standards, the judging, or the rigor?"

"Yes, I noticed that too. I heard from someone on the inside that the third round of this competition is very different from usual ones. I heard that we'll be entering some secret realm."

"Ah? We have to enter the secret realm? An alchemist entering the secret realm, this is really unprecedented. Alchemists are not spiritual practitioners."

"Well, who knows? Anyway, for us spectators, the more exciting the game, the more interesting it is."

While waiting, Ye Wanqing felt a pair of burning eyes staring at her with hatred, and she subconsciously looked in the direction of the gaze.

Sitting on the family seats on both sides, an old man with a white beard had a gloomy look in his eyes, which was filled with undisguised hatred.

Ye Wanqing's expression remained unchanged as she looked at his face, which was similar to Qi Fang's. The corners of her lips curled slightly as she looked to the other side, staring at Qi Fang with even colder eyes.

What a joke. If you stare at me, I will stare at your son.

Qi Fang had kept his distance from Ye Wanqing because of what happened a few days ago, but now he was being targeted by her again. The feeling of being on the verge of death once again filled his heart, and his body went limp, almost falling to the ground.

Qi Zheng choked and nearly choked out a mouthful of blood. "Cough, cough, cough, cough, this damn brat! How dare you threaten my son!"

"Master, are you okay?"

Qi Zheng's eyes were stern. "Are you all ready?"

"Don't worry, Master, everything is arranged."

Qi Zheng looked at Ye Wanqing's figure and sneered, "Hmph, I sent so many assassins and they all died in your hands!"

Damn it, if that’s the case, I will make sure you can’t even pass the first round of the competition. After you’ve been ridiculed, I’ll join forces with other powerful Spirit Saints to personally take care of you and avenge my son!

At this time, in the space

"Sister, I feel like you've been targeted by that ugly old man."

"I'm not sure what I'm thinking. That old man is the father of Qi Fang whom the master taught a lesson a few days ago. Didn't they send a lot of assassins here these days?"

Hai Li curled his lips. "Tsk, I could have easily taken care of those assassins with just a flick of my finger. That old man's eyes are really disgusting. I guess he's up to no good. Sister, maybe he'll do something bad to you during the alchemy competition. Do you want me to intervene?"

Ye Wanqing responded with her consciousness, the corners of her lips unconsciously raised, "No need. Since he wants to kill me, I have plenty of good things to give him. I won't let any hidden dangers remain by my side."

"Ahem, the most exciting moment is about to begin. Welcome all our fellow alchemists who have come from afar. The Alchemy Competition is about to begin. The competition is divided into three rounds. The first round is medicinal identification. Alchemists, please write down the names of the fifty medicinal herbs in front of you within the time of one stick of incense. You will advance if you answer thirty correctly. Let's begin now."

Ye Wanqing looked at the herbs in front of her, her lips curled up slightly, her eyes full of sarcasm. Now she was coming up with the same idea again, which was really useless.

I saw that half of the medicinal herbs in the pile were dehydrated and lifeless, and had even lost their original appearance and smell.

The expression in Ye Wanqing's eyes remained unchanged as she picked up the pen and wrote down the name of the medicine, stopping less than half an incense stick later.

"Look, someone has stopped! The young man in the indigo coat has finished."

"Look at Master Xie, he has also stopped, and he is just a little slower than the young master just now."

Ye Wanqing sensed a strange gaze and looked up, only to find Xie Yun standing not far away with a puzzled look on his face.

Xie Yun suddenly met her eyes, nodded slightly, and then turned around.

The judges' seat on the stage

Gu Changfeng, the head of Danwang Valley, was dressed in a white robe. He had an elegant face and a pine-like figure. There was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He touched his beard and nodded slightly.

"It seems that the first person to complete it was recommended by Mr. Li. As expected, Mr. Li's vision is still as sharp as ever."

Elder Li smiled and politely responded, "Valley Master Gu's chief disciple, Xie Yun, is also quite good. I heard that he practices both spiritual cultivation and alchemy. He's a promising young talent."

Liu Zhuyi maneuvered among them, her expression gentle. "Haha, since Elder Li and Valley Master Gu are both praising me, it means that the alchemists in this competition are generally good."

"Yes, it seems that this class is generally much stronger than the previous generation of young people."

"Time's up! Inspectors, please come forward and check the results of each alchemist."

"Wang Da, twenty-five, failed."

"Li Er, 31, passed."

"Wei Lan, forty-five, passed."

……

"Wow, I told you the young master of the Wei family is amazing. He only got five wrong out of fifty herbs. So cool and amazing! He must be better than that Xie Yun!"

"Are you sick? Xie Yun's results haven't been announced yet. Be careful not to get slapped in the face."

"Qi Fang, thirty-two, passed."

"Tsk, how come the young master of the Qi family only managed thirty-two? Doesn't the Qi family always boast about how talented his alchemists are? How great can an alchemist be if he can only manage thirty-two? This is truly embarrassing."

The Qi family and others sitting in the audience all had dark faces, especially Qi Zheng who was furious. He looked at Ye Wanqing who was leisurely on the stage and was extremely angry.

It's all because of that brat! If he hadn't scared my son, how could he have only gotten 32 correct? Humph, you little brat, just wait and see! I'll make sure you don't get even one correct and embarrass yourself in front of the entire Cang Qiong Continent!

"Xie Yun, fifty, passed."

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the field.

"Ahhhh, Master Xie is so handsome, he's got all the answers right! I knew it! I knew it! He must be better than that scumbag Wei!"

"So handsome, so handsome! Where's the person who just boasted about Wei Lan? Come out and slap him in the face. Let's see who is more powerful! Master Xie is so handsome and powerful. What should I do? I'm completely in love with him!"

Gu Changfeng nodded slightly on the referee's bench. His disciple had always brought him honor, but this time the complete match was beyond his expectations.

"There's one last person left! I'm really looking forward to seeing how the last person performs! After all, he finished faster than Xie Yun, and more importantly, he's more handsome than Xie Yun!"

"Qingye...Zero, failed."

Suddenly, there was silence.
