In the end, Jiang Chen still didn’t accept to become Ji Ruxue’s master, however, he said that he could become her teacher before disappointment appeared on her face.

The difference between the two was that he didn’t need to take care of her, and train her meticulously, and he just needed to point the path to her, and solve the difficulties, which she would run into in her path in alchemy.

Ji Yinyi knew that this was the greatest concession he could make, and she could only accept it.

She thought back of the words she just said at this moment, and her expression became slightly odd.

Even though she grew up in the desolate land, this didn’t mean that she would take intimate relations.h.i.+ps lightly, and just mess around.

However, she would still not regret it, and go back in it, but it was a pity that Jiang Chen was firm and resolute, and didn’t have even an ounce of hesitation.

“Could it be that I’m not to his liking?” Ji Yinyi found it somewhat incredulous when she thought about it.

Even if she judged herself according to a woman’s aesthetic point of view, she would still find her appearance outstanding, and it would also be the case for her curves.

“Jiang Chen, although I said such words, but this is still my first time, so you mustn’t a.s.sume that I’m a wanton woman, and abhor me,” Ji Yinyi said coldly.

Jiang Chen was taken aback, and it was only after a long while did he realize what she was talking about.

He was quite embarra.s.sed, and it was him now, whose face turned red.

Both Ji Yinyi’s tone and expression seemed quite shameful regardless of how he observed them.

“I didn’t reject you for such a reason, okay?”

Jiang Chen emphasized it once again, “To stop you from letting your imagination run wild, I can only let you work as my guard in the way to Wing Prefecture.”

Ji Yinyi wasn’t just pretty, she was still a Celestial Venerable, and she was many times more powerful than Celestial Venerables like Young Master Blood Moon, and Feng Bujue.

Ji Yinyi knew that he would face grave danger, and she found such a request quite reasonable, and agreed readily.

“The Elixir a.s.sociation will surely send a group of experts to travel along with us, won’t they?” Ji Yinyi said in confusion.

“I don’t want to owe them any favors before I decide to join the Elixir a.s.sociation,” Jiang Chen said.

Ji Yinyi nodded, if the Elixir a.s.sociation ended up becoming enemies with the Jiang Family due to Jiang Chen, it would be impossible for him to pay back such a favor regardless of what he did, and he could only join the Elixir a.s.sociation.

Moreover, the Jiang Family didn’t know that he changed his appearance, and they might probably not run into any dangers in the way.

“Since my youngster sister already joined the Elixir a.s.sociation, she can stay with the President, and you can just inform him that we don’t want to leave for the time being,” Ji Yinyi said.

“Big sister!”

Ji Ruxue didn’t want to separate with her elder sister, and it was especially the case since this was her first time traveling far away, and she wasn’t confident in herself.

She grew up in the desolate land, and people, who lived outside of it, were more cunning, and she just experienced such an affair with Young Master Xuan, and Wu Fan on this day.

The scheme set by Young Master Xuan was flawless, and if someone else other than Jiang Chen faced it, he would be forced to suffer in silence, and he couldn’t even state his difficulties.

“It’s all right, it’s after all the Elixir a.s.sociation, and you must sooner or later learn how to depend on yourself,” Ji Yinyi said.

She trusted the Elixir a.s.sociation greatly, as it wasn’t like other factions, and was always neutral because of its special nature, and it almost didn’t have any enemies.

Even though the Elixir Fire Union appeared now, they still wouldn’t start a war this quickly, as the former would surely lose if it challenged now such a colossal faction, which existed for several hundred years.

Yang Jingchi came here just to check Beiw.a.n.g City’s situation, as well as visit his sworn brothers, and talk about the past with them.

Yang Jingchi could leave at any time, but he would also obviously ask Ji Ruxue to travel with them, so that he could take care of her, and keep her safe.

Jiang Chen informed Yang Jingchi that he wanted to go travel with his fiancée to undergo trails in some place, as a preparation to the t.i.tle Battle.

“Why do you need to partic.i.p.ate in it?” Yang Jingchi couldn’t help but state his opinion.

It wasn’t like he looked down upon Jiang Chen, but he just felt that it was quite a pity, as Spiritual Venerables would partic.i.p.ate just to join in the fun, and it would be better for him to spend his time in alchemy.

“I’m really sorry,” Yang Jingchi realized immediately what he just said, and apologized.

“It’s doesn’t matter.”

“But, you must still be careful of the Elixir Fire Union. They may probably try to harm you, as the talent displayed by you should have frightened them,” Yang Jingchi said.

“I will be careful then, but since you already mentioned the Elixir Fire Union, can you please inform me of it, as I’m really curious how did they manage to found it, while the Elixir a.s.sociation had such a high influence,” Jiang Chen said.

“It’s because of three matters, prestige, techniques, and backers.”

Yang Jingchi didn’t hide it from him, and informed him through voice transmission, “The eight great Spirit Zones were afraid of the Elixir a.s.sociation’s constant development, but they still didn’t dare to attack it openly, and break the Three Middle Realms’ equilibrium, so they could only support the Elixir Fire Union’s rise in secret.”

This matter was a cla.s.sified secret, and Yang Jingchi asked him to absolutely kept it confidential.

Jiang Chen expressed that he won’t divulge it to someone irresponsibly.

“The eight great Spirit Zones are just its backers, and its techniques and prestige were the most crucial, as they helped them attract over Spirit Alchemists.”

Yang Jingchi said, “Most of the Ten Great Elixir Production Techniques were lost, but a part of them was in the Elixir a.s.sociation, while the Elixir Fire Union had one of them, and it was the lost technique, Worldly Fire.”

“What? What?” Jiang Chen almost suspected that he misheard him, and he spoke hurriedly, “Worldly Fire?”

Yang Jingchi wore an odd look, as he said, “This technique appeared five hundred years ago in the Sacred Zone, and it was lost along with the closing of the Sacred Zone’s plane channel.”

“Their Union Master claimed that he was the Sacred Zone’s Elixir Saint’s disciple, and possessed it due to such a reason.”

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but shout inwardly when he heard such words, “I never took any disciples.”

It was him the Elixir Saint, and it was because he couldn’t cultivate in the past didn’t overbearing t.i.tles such as the Elixir Emperor, Elixir Sovereign didn’t suit him, and the Sacred Zone’s people chose such a t.i.tle for him.

“Elixir Saint?” Jiang Chen pretended that he never heard about it, and asked in confusion.

“He’s a peerless genius.”

Yang Jingchi wore a respectful and solemn expression as he talked about the Elixir Saint, “I heard that the Elixir Saint was incapable of cultivating, yet he was sensitive to fire, and always used Worldly Fire to make elixirs.”

“The Ten Thousand Elixirs Scripture written by him was like a lantern among boundless fog, and it pointed and showed the way clearly to countless Spirit Alchemists.”

“The past hundred years were the historical period with the highest number of Spirit Alchemists, and they got in it the highest achievements, and it’s all due to the Ten Thousand Elixirs Scripture.”

“Hein?”

Jiang Chen never heard about such a book, but in his past life, he really summed up all of his knowledge of Spirit Elixirs, and experience into a book, and it was the fruit of all his efforts.

It was a long book and work, which he couldn’t finish in a short time, and he pa.s.sed several years in writing it.

When he was stabbed to death, he still didn’t finish it then, and he didn’t choose a name for it, and if he had an opportunity for naming it, he would surely not chose such a tacky name.

“It’s a pity that it’s rumored that the Ten Thousand Elixirs Scripture isn’t complete, and it’s short of the most important part of it, otherwise, it would have a greater impact,” Yang Jingchi said.

“It’s surely the case,” Jiang Chen said inwardly, “The last part would be like a bridge between its first and later parts, and it’s like a summary for it.”

If the complete Ten Thousand Elixirs Scripture had a value of a hundred percent, then the incomplete one had just fifty.

“Therefore, people went crazy over the Elixir Saint’s disciple, and it’s even rumored that the Elixir Fire Union’s Master had the last part of the scripture,” Yang Jingchi said.

“Utter rubbis.h.!.+” Jiang Chen spoke without giving a second thought to it.

“What?” Yang Jingchi didn’t expect that he would have such a grave reaction.

“Well, it’s nothing, I just wanted to say that how can it be possible for such an important object to be in his hands.” It was only now did Jiang Chen realize that his emotions were stirred by it, and he explained it quickly.

“We also had the same opinion, but the outer party didn’t admit anything, and there would be always some fools, who will believe that he truly had the last part, and join the Elixir Fire Union due to it.”

Jiang Chen’s desire of getting to see who was the Elixir Fire Union was becoming stronger and stronger, as he felt like this person was a key point related to his past five hundred years ago.
