If Heaven hadn't given birth to me, I would be arrogant.

"is it?"

Zong Ze sneered: "There's a saying I don't know if you've heard: 'Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me. I will learn from their good qualities and correct their bad ones.' Everyone has something worth learning from. So what if someone is a beginner alchemist? Sometimes, even a novice alchemist can inspire a master alchemist with just one sentence!"

"well said!"

At this moment, a voice came from the other side, and it was none other than Lu Zhongen!

Zong Ze's words truly struck a chord with him. Why was he so eager to find Han Ju, whose alchemy skills were inferior to his own, to study his process of refining the Breaking Body Pill? Wasn't it precisely because he hoped that Han Ju could bring him inspiration?

Upon seeing Lu Zhongen approach, although Lu Zhongen was also wearing a mask, the young man seemed to recognize him and quickly made way for him, bowing deeply to him.

"What you say makes perfect sense, young friend!"

Lu Zhongen walked up to Zong Ze and said, "Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me! This saying is truly insightful. However, judging from what you just said, it seems that you do indeed know something about alchemy?"

"I know a little bit, but I wouldn't call myself an expert!"

Zongze nodded!

Lu Zhongen turned to the young man who had just caused trouble for Zong Ze and said, "That pill is in your hands, isn't it? Show it to this young friend!"

Although the young man was wearing a mask and no one else could recognize him, Lu Zhongen could recognize him at a glance. This was because the girl was practically his disciple, always by his side. Even if she were burned to ashes, Lu Zhongen would still recognize her, let alone if she wore a mask.

That's right, the young man was actually a girl, the favorite granddaughter of the Supreme Elder of the South City Headman Sect, and also the leading figure of the next generation of the Headman Sect, Wang Xinling of the Headman Sect.

Wang Xinling is the pride of the Headman Sect. At the age of 24, she already possesses the strength of a late-stage Great Power. Given more time, she will be able to reach the peak of her strength.

Although Cyndi Wang is a girl, living in the Tou Ren Zong (a local religious group) instilled in her a boyish personality from a young age. While most girls enjoy music, chess, calligraphy, and painting from childhood, Cyndi Wang preferred gun-wielding and dancing from a young age.

At the age of 15, Wang Xinling, who had already reached the Martial God realm, had already defeated all her peers from the Headman Sect.

This explains why Ni Dahe, as the sect leader's biological son, is addressed differently from others!

For example, Leng Duanshan is the young sect master of the Bei Leng Sect, and Temer, although he is also a good-for-nothing, is still the young sect master of the Overlord Sect, while Ni Dahe is the first in line to succeed the Headman Sect!

It's because Ni Dahe is being heavily suppressed by Wang Xinling, who is even younger than him!

If Wang Xinling weren't a girl, she would be the young sect leader of the Headman Sect, and Ni Dahe would have been out of the picture long ago!

Even so, there were still some people in the Headman Sect who wanted to support Wang Xinling to take on the future of the Headman Sect. Under such circumstances, even Ni Dahe's father, Ni Hai, did not dare to risk making his incompetent son the young sect leader. He could only rely on the ancestral precepts to give Ni Dahe the title of the first in line of succession!

However, Ni Dahe was quite lucky, because Wang Xinling seemed to have no intention of taking the throne of the Headman Sect Master, and her grandfather did not seem to approve of his granddaughter taking on this responsibility.

However, although Wang Xinling was quite capable, she became deeply fascinated with alchemy after meeting Lu Zhongen when she was eighteen. She often followed Lu Zhongen around, helping him out and learning some alchemy knowledge along the way!

Lu Zhongen also liked this girl very much, especially since Wang Xinling really had the talent for alchemy. She had only been by his side for six years and was already a peak alchemy apprentice. He estimated that she would become an alchemist as soon as the opportunity came!

In this world, there is no such thing as a freak like Zong Ze who can go from a novice to a master alchemist in a month. Becoming an alchemist in six years is already amazing.

Lu Zhongen actually wanted to take Wang Xinling as his disciple, but he never brought it up. Even though Wang Xinling had mentioned it many times, he would just smile and not respond each time.

Lu Zhongen knew that in this world, strength still mattered. Even though he was an alchemist, his own strength was still too low. If he took Wang Xinling as his disciple, he would be harming her.

In fact, it wasn't just Lu Zhongen; Han Ju had also met this girl and gave her a very high evaluation. He had once advised Lu Zhongen, but Lu Zhongen knew in his heart that he would never accept a disciple if he couldn't reach the level of a master.

Having followed Lu Zhongen for six years, Wang Xinling naturally knew what her teacher was thinking. So, the happiest person about Lu Zhongen's advancement to the Alchemy Master was none other than Wang Xinling!

Firstly, she has always regarded Lu Zhongen as her mentor, and she is naturally happy when her mentor achieves success!

Secondly, if my mentor becomes a master alchemist, then I can truly and clearly become his disciple!

This is why Lu Zhongen wasn't angry after hearing Zong Ze's words, but Wang Xinling was holding her breath and wanted to cause trouble for Zong Ze.

Wang Xinling bought the "Virginity-Breaking Pill" at a high price because she didn't want her teacher's masterpiece, which was a key to his advancement to the Grandmaster level, to be enjoyed by others. So she bought it to keep as a souvenir.

Lu Zhongen could recognize Wang Xinling, and Wang Xinling could naturally recognize Lu Zhongen as well. Now, when Lu Zhongen asked her to show the virginity-breaking pill to Zong Ze, although Wang Xinling was extremely unwilling, she still obediently took out the virginity-breaking pill.

However, she did not hand the virginity-breaking pill to Zong Ze. Instead, she held it in her own hand and stretched her palm out in front of Zong Ze's eyes: "Here, take a look. This is Master Lu's masterpiece. Let me broaden your horizons!"

A faint fragrance of orchids wafted into Zong Ze's nostrils. Zong Ze smiled. The girls in this world are just like the women of ancient times on Earth; they all fail miserably when they try to disguise themselves as men!

Others might not be able to tell that Cyndi Wang was dressed as a man, but Zong Ze, looking at her figure and sniffing, could easily guess that she was a woman.

In that case, Zong Ze really couldn't argue with her, so he didn't reach out to take the Breaking Body Pill, and just let Wang Xinling hold it up and examine it!

"Well, you proud fellow, have you figured it out yet?"

Soon, Cyndi Wang withdrew her hand, and had to admit that girls' intuition can sometimes be very accurate.

When Zong Ze sniffed, Wang Xinling had a feeling that her disguise as a man had probably been exposed!
