My whole clan is a master, I have become invincible by investing in my clan members

Does this sound like human language?

What does it mean that "I failed to become the Emperor of Dan and could only become a Great Emperor"?

This sentence instantly gave him a sense of déjà vu: "If I can't pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar, I have to make do with being a prime minister."

He also sensed a "forced king" aura from the founder of the Dan League, whom he had never met before.

No, what are you talking about here?

Jiang Yan complained in his heart, but it was hard to refute.

After all, what he achieved was a genuine emperor, a supreme emperor who had reached the end of the human realm...

At this time, Ling Qianqiu continued:

"So, my senior brother saw that I had a good talent for alchemy and thought that I could inherit Master's legacy and become the Emperor of Alchemy, so he accepted me as his disciple on Master's behalf."

"Well, he also gave me his master's inheritance and his own inheritance..."

Jiang Yan was so upset when he heard this.

At the same time, I had a guess in my mind.

So, he glanced at Ling Qianqiu and asked tentatively, "So... you're telling me so much now, isn't it because..."

"Tsk tsk." Ling Qianqiu showed a meaningful smile on his face, "You react quite quickly, kid."

"Yes, your talent in alchemy has surpassed mine."

"When it comes to inheriting the mantle and becoming the Emperor of Alchemy, you have more hope than the rest of us old fellows."

"So, it makes perfect sense for me to pass on the inheritance mission that my senior brother gave me to you."

"Not to mention, you already carry the master's inheritance. Fourth Junior Brother, what do you call this? It's fate!"

Jiang Yan was speechless for a long time, feeling that this sect was full of dishonesty.

But soon, he realized a key point: "Fourth Junior Brother?"

Ling Qianqiu patted his forehead, a look of sudden realization on his face: "Oh, look at my memory, I almost forgot to introduce myself."

"Your unlucky third brother is none other than Yun Yuanzi."

"You are quite similar to him. When he was diagnosed with a ten-star talent, I accepted him as a disciple on his behalf."

"Of course, in order to avoid suspicion and unnecessary trouble, no one knows about our relationship yet."

At this point, he couldn't help but sigh: "Even though we've been telling him to settle down for tens of thousands of years, he still can't resist the temptation of becoming the Alchemy Emperor and insists on venturing into some secret realm of time and space."

"That's great now. He can't come back. I have to take care of my junior brother all over again. It's really worrying..."

Jiang Yan's expression turned strange when he heard this.

Putting aside the other party's casual "complaint", he also realized one thing.

This "cheap second senior brother" should be very reliable, both in terms of attainments in alchemy and personal cultivation.

The previous one who learned from him has become the leader of Jiuyi Dan League, a great cultivator at the peak of Dan Emperor and ninth level of Quasi-Emperor.

Now it’s my turn to learn from them, and the effect will definitely be good.

Not to mention, he had already inherited the legacy from Senior Xuan Ling.

Now that I have become his disciple, it seems to be a legitimate and natural thing.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan immediately made up his mind.

At this moment, Ling Qianqiu also looked over and said with a smile, "Fourth Junior Brother, have you thought it through?"

Jiang Yan took a deep breath and bowed solemnly:

"Jiang Yan, meet you, Senior Brother!"

Ling Qianqiu laughed loudly, patted his shoulder, and said with satisfaction: "Not bad, he is stronger than your third brother was back then, his talent is more stable, and his character is more calm."

"I hope you can help our senior brother realize his wish of 'producing another Alchemy Saint'!"

Jiang Yan nodded and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your trust!"

After that, before the other party could speak, he spoke first:

"Brother, I have always had a question."

"How did you just tell at a glance that I have our master's inheritance?"

This is what he cares about most.

If your cards can be easily seen through by others, then you must be cautious in every step you take in the future when operating in Daluo Tianwang.

Ling Qianqiu withdrew his palm and said with a smile: "Haha, what a coincidence."

"Let me ask you, have you ever sold a recipe for a pill called 'Qingming Cleansing Dust Pill' at the Treasure Trading Pavilion?"

Jiang Yan was startled and blurted out: "How do you know?"

Ling Qianqiu smiled and shook his head, "Junior brother, you were quite smart just now, why are you so slow to react now?"

These words flashed through Jiang Yan's mind like a bolt of lightning!

He suddenly remembered something and looked up:

"Brother, could it be that you are the one who bought the Qingming Dichen Pill formula?"

Just as he finished speaking, he frowned again and murmured, "But that's not right, that person's name is clearly Ling Xuanjiu... Wait, Ling Xuanjiu?!"

Ling just corresponds to my senior brother’s surname.

Xuan is taken from the "Xuan" in Xuanling Dan Emperor.

Nine is clearly the "nine" of Jiuyi Emperor.

Put them together, and it becomes - Ling Xuanjiu!

At this time, Ling Qianqiu was very satisfied with Jiang Yan's reaction.

He nodded and said, "Yes, Ling Xuanjiu, that is my name in the Daluo Sky Network."

"But seriously..."

He deliberately raised his tone and added with a smile, "No way, no way, is there really someone who would use their real name as a nickname in a place like Daluo Tianwang?"

"Junior brother, what is your real name? It's really hard to guess~"

Jiang Yan's eyes went dark.

At this moment, he really wanted to rebel against his master.

This senior brother... is he really reliable?

How could he be so different from the image he had imagined of a cool, calm and powerful man who could intimidate the whole audience without saying a word?

Then, he suppressed the complaints that were surging in his heart and quickly changed the subject:

"But just based on that recipe for the Qingming Cleansing Pill, you can conclude that I have inherited my master's legacy? Isn't that a bit too hasty?"

"After all, that kind of pill recipe isn't a top-notch item on the Treasure Trading Pavilion. The ingredients and proportions all look similar, so how can you tell the difference?"

Ling Qianqiu's expression became slightly serious when he heard this.

"You're right. Most people look at that pill recipe and think it's no different from the ones on the market."

"But that's for 'most people'..."

He stared at Jiang Yan and said in a deep voice, "After all, your pill recipe was improved by Master himself."

"Three key ratios have been significantly adjusted, coupled with a unique alchemy rhythm... These things may seem insignificant to others, but to me, they are extremely eye-catching!"

Jiang Yan's eyelids jumped: "Just this?"

"Of course there's more." Ling Qianqiu spread his hands, "That's why I took a picture of the recipe and studied it carefully."

"When I saw the complete alchemy process, especially the rhythm of extinguishing the fire at the end, the finger prints used to control the fire, and the 'Three Breaths Return' method used to purify the medicinal liquid, which were all consistent with Master's usual methods, I understood that you had come into contact with the inheritance left by Master..."

The words fell.

Jiang Yan's expression gradually became complicated.

He never imagined that there would be such a coincidence in the world.
