Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 776: Chapter 320 Hundred Meridians Penetration, Abundance of Happiness Arrives, Returning to Qingdan, Sibling Rivalry_3

This is related to the absence of a family Golden Core.

It also has to do with her focusing all her efforts on upgrading her strength and not investing time in building connections.

Now, a rare opportunity has appeared.

But with the people she had, could she truly have a chance of winning the Seed Cultivator Battle?

Just as sorrow filled her heart.

A glint descended outside the hall.

Before the footsteps settled, a familiar voice entered her ears.

“Sister, Dan Chenzi truly has great talents!”

“He will surely help you win the Seed Cultivator Position!”

As the voice echoed in the hall, Tao Wen’s expression changed slightly, her subconscious gaze shifted to the people in the hall.

As expected, the expressions of the three Second Order Pill Refiners, led by Huang Hezi, changed instantly.

A person who goes by the name of “Dan Chenzi” was undoubtedly a Pill Refiner.

Despite having the support of three Pill Refiners, she was still finding others, what did this imply?

Facing the synchronized stares.

Tao Wen snapped at Tao Yisheng, who had just entered the hall:

“Who told you to come back, go back to Tianlan!”

Tao Yisheng stiffened.

His excited expression was doused like a bucket of cold water.

…

After calming down the Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had pledged allegiance to her, Tao Wen rushed back to her Immortal Mansion.

Just one glance.

She saw Tao Yisheng, standing at the door, looking gloomy.

She suppressed her inner rage and coldly said:

“I’ve rented an Ascendant Grade Cave House for you in Tianlan, and haven’t short-changed you on cultivation resources. Why are you back?”

Tao Yisheng remained silent.

He pursed his lips, looking wronged.

Tao Wen massaged her brows and sat at the stone table, pouring a cup of chilled tea.

She didn’t look at Tao Yisheng and spoke to herself:

“Revitalizing the Tao Family, acquiring the Seed Cultivator Position, advancing to the Golden Core Realm in the future, and taking control of Qingdan Valley—are all the things I’ve always wanted to do.”

“The danger within, is beyond your imagination.”

“Only with you away, can I act freely without concerns.”

“So, after your Foundation Establishment, I transferred you to the Yuanzhao Kingdom. Even after the task was completed, I didn’t allow you to return.”

“Now, you’ve disobeyed my commands, returning without permission, and even speaking nonsense, disrupting the morale.”

“Yi Sheng, you’re not young anymore, can you think before you act or speak, be mature and stable!”

Tao Yisheng turned around.

His face was pale and his eyes were red.

“Am I that much of a burden to you?”

“That’s not what I meant.” Tao Wen looked at him and changed the subject. “But today, you really were reckless. Huang Hezi is a Pill Refinement Grandmaster whom I put in a lot of effort and cost to win over. With just one sentence, you’ve angered him. Do you know…”

“In front of Luo Chen, is he even qualified to be called a Pill Refinement Grandmaster!”

“Shut up!”

“I wouldn’t shut up. Clearly, you were the one who asked me to stay in Tianlan to gauge Luo Chen’s proficiency in the Dao of Alchemy. Now that I’ve rushed back to inform you about the results, you’re unsatisfied. If so, why did you initially assign me this task?”

Facing her brother’s stern words.

Tao Wen didn’t soften but instead, her face stiffened.

“Is a rogue Pill Refiner like Luo Chen comparable to a grandmaster like Huang Hezi, who has dedicated his entire life to Pill Refinement?”

She was speaking her mind.

She had never valued Luo Chen, who had been recommended to her by Dan Taijun, from beginning to end.

She gave Tao Yisheng the task of testing Luo Chen’s Dao of Alchemy proficiency, so he could keep himself occupied—that’s it.

Luo Chen, a rogue Pill Refiner who suddenly appeared from nowhere.

Was nothing like Huang Hezi!

Huang Hezi was born and raised in Qingdan Valley. After his Foundation Establishment, he stopped even cultivating and focused day and night on the Pill Refinement Technique.

Now, he could skillfully refine Second Order Middle Grade Pills.

Even Ascendant Grade Pills had a pretty stable success rate.

Because of this, his cultivation level was delayed, right now he was only at the Third Level Foundation Establishment Realm—that’s it.

In contrast, what had Luo Chen done to compete?

Seeing her sister’s unconcerned expression, still self-confident, still proud.

It seemed that Tao Yisheng was used to it.

She had always been like this since they were young.

She was truly good to him.

But once she made a decision, she almost never changed it.

But this time, she really made a mistake.

Tao Yisheng gritted his teeth and said: “Sister, just trust me this one time! Luo Chen’s Pill Refinement Technique is really good, or else Shijie Dan Tai would not have introduced him to you.”

“Think about it, even Ascendant Master Jueqing values him so highly, there must be something extraordinary about him.”

Tao Wen furrowed her brows.

Over these decades, her brother had never gone against her will.

But this time, for a stranger, he was so persistent.

She twitched the corner of her mouth.

“Alright, I’ll give you a chance. Talk about your observations in detail.”

“I want to know what kind of person, who stands out from the crowd, can win such admiration from you!”
