“This…” Zhao Guang hesitated for a bit.

“Ren, go bring Yujia over if she is free,” Zhao Hongyu said as she turned her head over and looked at Hao Ren.

“OK!” Hao Ren said without any hesitation. He walked over to the door that connected to the back garden and brought out Little White from his necklace. He formed a red energy sphere and flew out speedily on Little White.

The First Elder of Yuhuang Mountain had seen Hao Ren’s snow lion at the Dragon God Shrine’s general exams, so he wasn’t surprised at all. However, the other elders and the three dragon kings were a bit shocked when Hao Ren rode on a demon beast.

“The East Ocean Dragon Palace is indeed strong, strong enough to have the resources to train demon beasts,” the three dragon kings thought as they picked up their teacups.

Hao Ren was the regional inspector of the East Ocean City, so he was allowed to fly in the sky. With Little White, it only took him the blink of an eye to get from Zhao Yanzi’s home to his home.

Little White flew to the back of the house, and Hao Ren went close to Xie Yujia’s room’s window and saw her studying.

Xie Yujia was in her blue pajamas and had on a pair of small slippers. She just washed her hair, and she didn’t tie it. Overall, she had a gentle temperament.

Dong, dong! Dong, dong!

Hao Ren knocked on her window lightly.

Xie Yujia turned her head, looking a bit confused. She saw Hao Ren at the window and looked a bit surprised but hurried over to open the window.

“Yanzi’s mom wants you to come over for a bit. The cultivator whom you saved last time came over with his dragon clan to thank you. However, it’s ok if you don’t want to go,” Hao Ren said as he sat on Little White.

“It’s ok. I’ll go check it out.” Xie Yujia put down her pen.

Then, she looked down at herself and saw that she was still in pajamas. “I…”

She wanted to change first, but Hao Ren was at the window…

“Yujia, come out.” Little White was floating in the air outside, and Hao Ren was knocking on the window.

“Oh!” Hao Ren suddenly realized and twisted Little White’s ear to order it to turn around. Their backs were now facing her window.

Xie Yujia blushed while she closed her curtains. A few minutes later, the curtains reopened, and she carefully climbed out of the window.

She had changed into a clean white shirt and jeans, making her look especially fresh.

Hao Ren reached over to catch her by her arms so that she could climb over to Little White’s back from the window. Xie Yujia’s room was on the first floor, and it faced the garden, so there was still some distance between the window and the ground.

“Careful…” Hao Ren supported Yujia by her shoulders, hugging her directly.

Her body felt soft but was a bit different from Zhao Yanzi’s. Xie Yujia was between mature and young.

“I’m ok…” Xie Yujia sat in front of Hao Ren. She shoved his hands away gently, and her face was a bit red.

Although she and Hao Ren knew each other well, she was still too shy to let him touch her body.

Hao Ren let go of her, feeling a bit embarrassed. He wanted to explain but thought there was no real purpose to it. Also, the way Xie Yujia came over to open the window felt like they were seeing each other secretly.

In reality, Hao Ren just didn’t want to be questioned by Grandma, so he didn’t go through the front door.

“Uh-hem! Little White, go to Yanzi’s home!” Hao Ren patted Little White’s butt.

Little White groaned but still flew toward Zhao Yanzi’s home.

Dong!

Little White landed in the back garden of Zhao Yanzi’s home.

The three dragon kings had just had two sips of tea, and Hao Ren already brought Xie Yujia over. It was incredibly fast and efficient, and the dragon kings were all impressed by the demon beast’s flying speed.

“Uncle, Auntie…” Xie Yujia greeted Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu as she followed Hao Ren in from the back door with a slight blush on her face.

Zhao Yanzi lightly snorted when she saw Xie Yujia.

“Come over, Yujia…” Zhao Hongyu stood up enthusiastically and led Yujia over to the center of the living room. She then introduced her to the three dragon kings.

Xie Yujia didn’t understand the concepts of dragon palaces, so she treated them like seniors with good manners and respect.

These three dragon kings, as well as their elders and disciples, couldn’t suppress their astonishment when they saw how young the East Ocean Dragon Palace’s elixir master was.

They all thought that an elixir master who could make level 4 elixir pills would at least be a few hundred years old.

The First Elder of Yuhuang Mountain had seen Xie Yujia before, but he didn’t expect that such a young girl would be the well-respected elixir master of the East Ocean Dragon Palace!

They were all shocked and were weighing Xie Yujia’s abilities. She was pretty without dispute, but she did not give out any auras from her dragon core.

“Could she be on Qian-level or Kun-level?” the three dragon kings smiled as they secretly passed messages to each other with their eyes.

“She probably isn’t a dragon cultivator,” Yingtian Dragon King from Longhu Mountain said lightly.

The other two dragon kings were both slightly surprised. They realized how great of a strategy that the East Ocean Dragon Clan had, taking in an elixir master who wasn’t even a dragon cultivator.

When Zhao Hongyu saw them passing looks around, she reminded them by saying “Ciyun Dragon King…”

“Oh! Right!” Ciyun Dragon King reacted quickly. He took out a box from his ring while smiling kindly at Xie Yujia. “Yuhuang Mountain is a poor area, and we don’t have anything special. Here are six blood ginsengs as a symbol of our gratitude.”

Xie Yujia took over the box from Ciyun Dragon King stiffly. Then, she carefully opened the box.

There were six well-organized red ginsengs, and they looked extremely potent.

Zhao Guang was secretly shocked since the value of the six blood ginsengs far exceeded the treasure boxes!

Ciyun Dragon King of Yuhuang Mountain said he was in a poor area, but that was just to be polite. Yuhuang Mountain had rich lands in the southwestern region, and it had many spiritual herbs!

The East Ocean Dragon Palace was in the East Ocean, and it had many corals and shells. Ciyun Dragon King of the Yuhuang Mountain controlled over a few surrounding canyons, so it too had many rare things!

Agarwood was one of Yuhuang Mountain’s special local products, and the blood ginsengs were extremely unique! The blood ginsengs’ importance to Yuhuang Mountain was like the Mystic Ice to the West Ocean Dragon Clan.

Ciyun Dragon King was underplaying the value of these gifts. The crystal-clear blood ginsengs were invaluable as it would take at least 1,000 years to grow into that quality.

Xie Yujia held the box but didn’t know what to do with it.

“Yujia. You should accept the gift since it is from Ciyun Dragon King,” Zhao Hongyu said.

“Thank you, Dragon King!” Xie Yujia smiled sweetly and put the box in her ring.

She had spent a lot of time recently reading about spiritual herbs, but the red colored ginseng was nothing she had seen before. Therefore, she couldn’t estimate the value of these six ginsengs.

These blood ginsengs were just ranked right below the level 6 spirit herbs which were the best elixir making materials. The blood ginsengs were level 5 spiritual herbs, and they were almost extinct. That was why the encyclopedia Zhen Congming gave her didn’t record it.

If Xie Yujia showed Zhao Guang the three ingredients she got from Kunlun, he would be for sure in greater shock.

There weren’t many level 6 spirit herbs in the world, and the Sky Mountain Sect’s capability of growing seven-colored lotus, which helped them secure a powerful position on Sixth Heaven, was already evidence for how valuable level 6 spirit herbs were.

“Humph…”

Zhao Yanzi who was very excited just now was a little jealous after she witnessed Ciyun Dragon King gifting Xie Yujia.

“I still have another request…”

Ciyun Dragon King hesitated for a few seconds and said in a respectful tone.

A level 4 elixir master might just be an honorable guest at the East Ocean Dragon Palace, but he or she would be very important to smaller forces.

Even though Yuhuang Mountain’s was wealthy as well, their powers were still no match for the East Ocean Dragon Palace.

“Please.” Xie Yujia also respected him.

The two dragon kings beside Ciyun Dragon King also looked more earnest.

Zhao Hongyu also looked serious now. She knew that it was impossible that the three dragon kings came to the East Ocean Dragon Palace to only greet them.

Zhao Guang also realized that, so he was careful with his words and behaviors in front of the three dragon kings. Of course, the East Ocean Dragon Palace had helped one of Yuhuang Mountain’s wood-elemental cultivators, thus leading to them show gratitude. However, that wasn’t enough for Ciyun Dragon King to come here himself and bringing along two other dragon kings.

“Our wood-elemental dragon clan has deep bonds with spirit herbs, and therefore we know a bit of elixir making. However, we focus on cultivation, so we still need to work on our elixir making skills,” Ciyun Dragon King slowly said as he looked at Xie Yujia.

“Now that our Yuhuang Mountain wood-elemental dragon clan is becoming friends with the East Ocean Dragon Palace, would you be willing to make one pill for us?”

Zhao Hongyu was secretly relieved after finding out Ciyun Dragon King’s real intention.

The value of the boxes of treasures and six blood ginsengs were not lower than the Life Fortune Pill that Xie Yujia had given Yuhuang Mountain. However, the Life Fortune Pill was incredibly rare, and no one was willing to sell it.

They came here with many gifts, and it made Zhao Hongyu nervous. Now that their intention was known, Zhao Hongyu was relieved.

“Umm…”

Xie Yujia didn’t know what to do in such a situation. The pills she made were consumed by herself or stored away for Hao Ren, and she had never come across a very important guest who came all the way over to ask her to make a pill for him. He was also a dragon king, so she couldn’t just accept his request since it was a political situation.

She looked over at Hao Ren, Hao Ren looked at Zhao Hongyu, and Zhao Hongyu looked at Zhao Guang.

Xie Yujia belonged to the East Ocean Dragon Palace, and Zhao Guang should decide whether she should make the pill for these guests from afar.

Ciyun Dragon King looked a bit embarrassed.

He gifted a few boxes of treasures to thank the East Ocean Dragon Palace for their help while also hoping that he could get a recommendation so that the elixir master could help him.

He didn’t expect the elixir master to belong to the East Ocean Dragon Palace wholeheartedly, and the final call was in Zhao Guang’s hands. On the other hand, Ciyun Dragon King was further impressed by the strength of the East Ocean Dragon Palace.

“What pill are you looking for, Ciyun Dragon King?” Zhao Guang asked.

His voice sounded especially composed. To Ciyun Dragon King, Zhao Guang’s voice also represented the mighty strength of the East Ocean Dragon Palace.

“It’s a level 4 Rejuvenation Pill. I’ve prepared all the materials and only hope this lady could help me make it,” Ciyun Dragon King said.

Since the elixir master wasn’t hired as he had expected, he couldn’t directly ask the elixir master himself. Therefore, he had to open up with Zhao Guang.

“Yujia, what do you think?” Zhao Guang turned over to ask Xie Yujia gently.

“Level 4? I can give it a try,” Xie Yujia nodded and said.

“Thank you!” Ciyun Dragon King was ecstatic. He took out a palm-sized golden box from his ring and handed it over to Xie Yujia carefully.

A level 4 Rejuvenation Pill was famous on First Heaven for its ability to prolong one’s life. As long as the quality of the ingredients was good, the pill could extend one’s life for 100 years. For some older dragon cultivators, this 100 years may be their most critical 100 years.

Yuhuang Mountain was well-respected in the southwestern region, but Ciyun Dragon King was already more than 600 years old. Since he was at Xun-level, he was reaching the end of his life. His eldest son was only about 300 years old, but he was still charging at Xun-level. He still lacked in credibility and power to lead the clan.

However, if Ciyun Dragon King were able to prolong his life for another 100 years, things would be different. Even if he couldn’t break through, he could buy time for his son to reach higher levels in cultivation, better preparing him to take over the Yuhuang Mountain Dragon Clan.

Therefore, this Rejuvenation Pill was the key for the Yuhuang Mountain Dragon Clan to stabilize its interior affairs.

“I’ll revisit the East Ocean Dragon Palace in one month, and I hope you could finish the pill by then!” Ciyun Dragon King said to Xie Yujia with a big smile on his face; he had high hopes for her.

Just when Xie Yujia moved her lips as she wanted to say something, Ciyun Dragon King took out a thumb-sized jade furnace from his ring quickly because he thought she was going to go back on her words.

He uttered a spell, and this jade furnace that originally looked like a toy slowly became bigger and bigger in his palm.

Ciyun Dragon King put the jade furnace down on the floor, and it turned bigger until it was barely able to be hold up by two arms.

“This is the Herb King Furnace, and it is one of Yuhuang Mountain’s most valued treasures. You could use this jade furnace to make the pill, and the process should be more efficient,” Ciyun Dragon King said.

Xie Yujia looked down at the jade furnace and then at Ciyun Dragon King again; she still had things to say.

Ciyun Dragon King suddenly waved his hands at Zhao Guang. “We will forever remember how the East Ocean Dragon Palace helped Yuhuang Mountain. If the East Ocean Dragon Palace needs help in the future, Yuhuang Mountain will for sure try our best to help!”

Making a level 4 pill was not a simple task. Ciyun Dragon King was scared that Xie Yujia would rescind, so he didn’t bother with manners and turned away; he was ready to leave.

Seeing that Ciyun Dragon King was about to step out the door, Xie Yujia finally said: “Dragon King! It won’t take a month to make the pill. If you can wait for about an hour, and I’ll have the pill for you!”
