A gift returned ten thousandfold: I am the number one licker in all realms!

Luo Xing thought about it and realized that this was the opportunity he had been waiting for all these years.

"Elder, if possible, I hope the Alchemist Guild can help me find my parents."

“I lost my parents when I was young and I don’t know where they are now. If the Food Union can help me find my parents, I will be extremely grateful.”

The elder standing to the side was stunned, not expecting that this young man was such a loyal and righteous person.

This is the first time in all the alchemist conferences that have been held that someone has been asked to help find their parents.

"Those who have forgotten are not those who want gold and silver treasures, but those who want some wealth or status, or even those who want to become elders in the Alchemist Guild."

"You're quite an extraordinary young man; you've truly broadened my horizons."

"But there's no problem. Tell us in detail about your parents and your family later."

"We will do everything we can to help you find your parents. Our Alchemist Guild is all over the Central Continent, so as long as your parents are still alive, the chances of finding them are still very high."

When Luo Xing heard this, he finally couldn't help but laugh. Wasn't all his hard work and cultivation over the years for this day?

"Very well, thank you, Elder, thank you, Alchemist Guild. I'm sending this message to express my gratitude to everyone."

……

"Haha, you're quite an interesting kid."

"But this is not the end of the story yet."

"Our Alchemists' Guild has other gifts for you."

"If we just run away and get away with it, what will the world think of our Alchemist Guild? So what? Shouldn't they be watching this Alchemist Conference?"

"As for a reward, since you don't have any requests, we'll reward you with a lotus flower."

As he spoke, the alchemist elder took out a golden lotus flower.

When Luo Xing saw the golden lotus, he immediately recognized its extraordinary nature.

Similarly, many people here also saw this golden lotus flower and recognized it at a glance. Their eyes widened in astonishment.

"That is a golden lotus."

"My goodness, the Alchemist Guild is really generous!"

"It is said that the golden lotus flower grew in a patch of medicinal herbs."

"Its medicinal properties are also extremely valuable. Legend has it that the medicinal properties of this golden lotus are comparable to those of an eighth-grade elixir."

"If you want to refine a ninth-grade pill, this golden lotus can become the main ingredient for refining a ninth-grade pill."

"I never imagined that the Alchemist Guild would actually possess such a legendary treasure."

The second young master, who was looking this way, was already gritting his teeth in anger, and his whole body was trembling.

Why did he come to join the Alchemist Guild? Wasn't it for this golden lotus flower?

To refine a ninth-grade elixir, the most precious thing is to find a medicinal herb specifically for ninth-grade elixirs.

Even with the most advanced alchemy skills, it's all for naught if you don't have the ingredients to refine ninth-grade pills.

This golden lotus flower is the best choice for refining ninth-grade medicinal materials.

Unexpectedly, the Alchemist Guild gave this away for free.

"You bastard, you damn bastard, Luo Xing, you bastard."

"You are not worthy of such a treasure. Who do you think you are, daring to steal my golden lotus?"

"Ugh, I'm so angry, Luo Xing, I'm going to kill you later."

The second young master was furious, knowing that Luo Xing would definitely accept it. And such a golden lotus was probably the only one the entire Alchemist Guild could produce.

Looking at the golden lotus, Luo Qingqing couldn't help but drool. She had practically watched it grow up, so she knew its value. She had always wanted it, but every time she tried to pick it, the elders of her family would pull her back.

"Hmph, how infuriating! Those old geezers in the family actually gave away such good things. It's something I wanted, but no one will give it to me."

……

Luo Xing swallowed hard, looking at the golden lotus in front of him. Although he didn't know what it was, he could feel its powerful medicinal properties.

He could even sense an extremely powerful force within it. If he obtained this powerful force, he might be able to refine something of the ninth rank.

"This is indeed a good thing. Thank you, Elder. I will take this treasure."

The elder stroked his beard and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The elders standing nearby couldn't help but burst into laughter at the sight.

"Haha, look at this kid, he really knows his stuff. He recognized it right away. This is good stuff."

"That's for sure. We're not going to give away such a good thing easily. If this kid hadn't made some strange request, we really wouldn't have given away this golden lotus."

"Hmph, even if you don't give it away, what can you do with it? Is there some wonderful use for it in your hands?"

"If you could refine an eighth-grade pill, this thing would have been given to you long ago. Giving it to you would be a waste; you might as well give it to someone else. If someone were to refine a ninth-grade pill someday, they would be famous throughout the continent."

"Hmph, you old codger, who do you think you are? Say that again and I bet I'll beat you up!"

……

The Alchemist Guild offered not only this golden lotus, but also the position of honorary elder of the Alchemist Guild to Luo Xing.

Although he didn't wield any real power, and Luo Xing couldn't mobilize the Alchemist Guild's members, it was a source of immense prestige. With such prestige, one could essentially do whatever they wanted within the Alchemist Guild.

Even if someone is a loser, anywhere in the Central Continent, as long as they display the badge of an honorary elder of the Alchemist Guild, they will at least receive some respect.

"Luo Xing, thank you all, elders."

After expressing his gratitude and going through a series of elaborate ceremonies, Luo Xing left the venue and the competition site. He was invited by the elders of the Alchemist Guild to have tea at the guild's premises.

After staying in the Alchemist Guild for several days, I've come to a general understanding of the basic rules within the guild.

The Alchemist Guild has a total of 300 branches across the entire Central Continent.

Each guild is generally overseen by an alchemist, and there is usually a third-grade alchemist member in each guild.

In some larger cities, there are even fifth-rank alchemists stationed there.

As for sixth- or seventh-grade alchemists, even the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild simply cannot produce many. Therefore, high-level alchemists within the Alchemist Guild are extremely valuable.

As for the eighth-rank alchemists within the Alchemist Guild, even including Luo Xing, their skills are merely so-so. There are practically no eighth-rank alchemists in the entire Central Continent.

As for the contents of the wine, in the context of the Central Continent, it's nothing more than a legend. Only a few decades ago, a ninth-grade alchemist appeared on the entire Central Continent, and then disappeared in a short time.

Within their alchemist guild, the highest-ranking member is their guild leader, who is currently a peak eighth-grade alchemist.

Even so, becoming a ninth-grade alchemist would likely be extremely difficult in this lifetime.

The reason they recruited Luo Xing was because they saw his potential. At such a young age, he had already become an eighth-grade alchemist. Given time, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to become a ninth-grade alchemist.

If he were to become a ninth-grade alchemist, he would have all the resources of the Central Continent.

A ninth-grade alchemist can easily mobilize experts at the Venerable Realm.

Even stronger individuals can be mobilized, since many powerful figures would have risked their lives for this one pill.

The members of the Alchemist Guild treated Luo Xing with extreme respect. Even the young, newly joined alchemists would bow their heads and greet him as "Elder" upon seeing him.

Luo Xing stayed there for three days. After assessing the situation, he decided to leave, since even the Alchemist Guild would need at least a year to find his parents.

But before leaving, the golden-robed elder pulled his disciple Luo Qingqing over.

"Hehe, kid. I heard you haven't arrived yet. How about it? What do you think of my granddaughter?"

Luo Qingqing paused in the hall of the Alchemist Guild, stunned. He had originally intended to leave immediately, but then he looked at the woman in front of him.

He naturally knew Luo Qingqing and had greeted her several times in the past few days, but he never expected that she would have such intentions.

Luo Qingqing blushed and kept pushing her grandfather away. Although she liked Luo Xing, she didn't expect to be forcibly dragged over by her grandfather like this.

"Oh dear, Grandpa, how could you do this? She hasn't even agreed yet, and you've already dragged her over. Doesn't your granddaughter have any shame?"

"I actually have a bit of a crush on you, Luo Xing. I heard you haven't said anything yet, so I'd like to hear your opinion. If it's okay, we can start dating."

Luo Qingqing looked shy, which made her grandfather burst into laughter, laughing so hard he almost fell over.

His granddaughter usually acts fearless, but he never expected her to show such stage fright in front of him.

"Hey kid, have you thought this through? This is my granddaughter. If you marry her, you might even become the Grand Elder in the Alchemist Guild. Given time, becoming the Vice President isn't out of the question."

Luo Xing scratched his head, blushing slightly. Wasn't the other person being a bit too direct?

However, he had no such plans before finding his parents.

"I'm sorry, Elder. Let's forget about it. Right now, I'm only thinking about cultivating as quickly as possible, improving my cultivation level, and then finding my parents. As for matters of love and affection, I plan to deal with them later."

Elder Jintang was somewhat disappointed after hearing this, but he wasn't wrong. If the other party was still preoccupied with romantic love, then he would look down on him.

After hearing this, Luo Qingqing immediately turned and left, not expecting the other party to be so heartless.

Luo Xing was stunned; he hadn't expected this girl to be so impulsive. "Luo Qingqing, Luo Qingqing, it's not you, let me explain."

"Who needs your explanation? You don't like her, yet you've been so enthusiastic towards her these past few days."

"I think you're a total jerk."
