This female leader is a little bit stronger

It is impossible to lie down.

Ning Ye sighed and resigned himself to his fate and went to work.

"Oh, by the way, please call Xu Can for me."

Yang Yanxiu went to call Xu Can.

Not long after, Xu Can came to the study and took out several pill bottles.

"I haven't been lazy while the Sect Master is away. Here are the Foundation Establishment Pills and Golden Transformation Pills I made over the past few months. Please take a look."

Ning Ye took a look and found nothing wrong, so he asked, "Old Xu, what rank of alchemist are you? Can you make the Infant-Nourishing Pill?"

Xu Cang's face twitched. "I'm not very talented. I'm a third-grade alchemist. The infant-cultivating pill is the best among the fourth-grade..."

Ning Ye interrupted him when he heard this, "Third rank? How old are you this year?"

Xu Can was stunned for a moment, not knowing why she asked these questions. Did she think he was too old?

He then said thoughtfully, "Immortal cultivators have long lifespans, and I am only about three hundred years old..."

Ning Ye shook his head and said to him in great dissatisfaction: "Old Xu, you are over three hundred years old and yet you are only a third-grade alchemist. Such a waste, aren't you ashamed?"

Hear this!

A wave of shame and anger rushed to his head, and Xu Can was so angry that he blew his beard and glared:

"You, you, you... you little girl, how can you talk like that! What's wrong with being a third-grade alchemist? Even if I am a third-grade alchemist, I'm the only third-grade one in the nearby counties! Do you know how many families have spent millions of dollars to ask me for medicine, but I ignored them? And you still..."

Ning Ye raised his eyelids, "What am I saying? That's right, I just despise your lack of ambition! Why don't you despise your age and low level? You're only a third-rank rank, why are you so proud of yourself?"

The continuous humiliation almost gave Xu Can a heart attack and he wanted to flip the table.

"You girl, what do you know? You know nothing! You're so angry! Am I just low-level? I'm limited by the poor resources in the north! Do you know that the higher the quality of the elixir, the higher the grade of the medicinal materials required? I want to move to a higher level, but can Xiyuan County's resources afford it?!"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shed a few bitter tears.

He knows that there are always people better than you.

A third-grade alchemist can be respected in Xiyuan County, but once he goes out, he is not even considered to have entered the alchemy stage!

But what can he do?

These are the conditions in Xiyuan County!

Without high-quality medicinal materials, an alchemist can only reach the third level at best!

Ning Ye looked as if he had suddenly understood something. "Oh, you mean, it's not that your level is low, you just don't have the conditions."

Xu Cang was furious, his face flushed and his neck thick. "It's because I don't have the conditions! If I can get any medicinal herbs above the fourth grade, I will definitely be promoted to the fourth grade..."

As soon as he said this, Ning Ye threw out several sacks of medicinal herbs, all of which were of the fourth grade or above. The Nine-Colored Infant Lotus alone had a separate sack.

In an instant, the whole room was filled with the aroma of medicine.

Xu Can was dumbfounded, his jaw almost dropped to the ground in shock.

Ning Ye calmly returned his gaze to the account book and said, "Now that you have the medicinal herbs, stop complaining about the environment. I hope I can hear the news of your promotion to the fourth rank soon."

"..."

At this moment, Xu Can seemed to have become mute. His mood was so complicated that it was indescribable, as if he was jumping back and forth between heaven and hell.

While I'm excited, I also feel a little regretful.

Why did you brag so much just now?

Is it so easy to get promoted? And it’s so easy?

What if I fail to catch it in the end?

But there is no way, he has already boasted, even if it costs his life, he has to improve his level to the fourth level as soon as possible!

As soon as Xu Can left, Yang Yanxiu immediately gave Ning Ye a thumbs up.

"Master, your method of provoking others is truly brilliant."

Ning Ye smiled.

Those medicinal herbs were originally intended for Xu Can to practice.

But if I give it to him directly, given his age and the fact that he is not a young and energetic person, he may not have the determination and perseverance to improve himself.

That's why Ning Ye deliberately humiliated him first and forced him to sign the military order.

Turning to the next page casually, Ning Ye said quietly:

"Old Xu is still too young."

……

After working overtime to deal with the accumulated affairs, Ning Ye finally got some time off and walked to the small lotus fountain alone.

The low-level spiritual spring continuously spews water on the lotus, and the unlucky egg on the lotus leaf is still an egg.

It's been almost three years, and there's still no sign of it hatching.

Ning Ye couldn't help but wonder, "Could this egg be a bad egg?"

The pool below the lotus leaves is filled with clear spring water.

It is no exaggeration to say that this spiritual water nourishes the entire Tianning Sect.

Ning Ye thought of the weak water bead he got in the small world, so he picked up the spring and put it back into the system. Sure enough, the system showed that the spring could be upgraded.

After a series of operations, the low-level spring merged with weak water droplets and was successfully upgraded to a high-level spring.

[High-grade springs: Higher water yields greater spiritual energy. Daily drinking not only cures illnesses but also strengthens the body. Its benefits are truly endless! Note: It's delicious, but don't overdo it.]

Ning Ye put the high-level spring back.

The new spiritual spring water flowed down, and the spiritual energy it emitted turned into mist, like a white silk thread.

He took a handful with his hands and took a sip.

Well, it’s indeed sweeter than the low-level ones!

Ning Ye continued to look at the crystal clear reservoir below, smacking his lips. The water was empty, and he always felt like something was missing.

After a moment's thought, she drew out her Crescent Moon Sword and lightly tapped the tip of the sword on the water.

Several beams of red light overflowed from the blade of the Crescent Moon Sword and poured into the water. In the blink of an eye, they turned into several lively koi.

Watching the koi carp swimming in the pond, Ning Ye snapped his fingers and said, "It feels right."

No one knew that although Ning Ye had cut off the out-of-control origin of the small world at that time, he did not actually kill it all.

She absorbed the remaining pure essence into the Crescent Moon Sword, intending to nurture them and then send them back to their original small world.

Ning Ye can now go to and come back from the fallen small world whenever he wants, thanks to the teleportation array he has obtained. The world can only be opened by gathering the four holy places.

By this calculation, that small world is now the back garden of Tianning Sect.

Just as Ning Ye was thinking about good things, he suddenly heard a ding-dong sound.

It turned out that one of the koi fish jumped out of the water and tried to jump onto the lotus leaf.

It tried several times but failed, and just circled in the water.

Just when Ning Ye thought it was just jumping for fun.

Suddenly, the koi jumped up quickly, bringing out a few drops of crystal spring water from its body, and its tail swung wildly in the air, and it actually successfully jumped from the reservoir onto the lotus leaf.

As soon as the koi fish came up, it went against the current and rushed towards the unlucky guy!

Its tail stretched longer and longer as it swam, and its head grew larger and rounder...

Finally, it became like a big red tadpole, diving towards the unlucky guy and drilling into him!!!

Ning Ye: …(⊙＿⊙；)…

What did she just see?

The origin of life?

Before Ning Ye could think about whether the scene just now was serious or not, the unlucky guy moved!

It it it it it it... moved!

The egg shook and there was a cracking sound on the surface!

A long neck broke through the eggshell and came out, opening its mouth and whistling:

"Just--!"
