Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 899: Chapter 368: Yin Yue Jueqing, Repeatedly Causing Trouble_3

He replied and left.

Luo Chen glanced at Dan Taijun, who was standing dumbfounded, and left with a flick of his sleeve.

After he had left, Dan Taijun suddenly realized something and her complexion changed drastically.

By the time she left the house, she saw Luo Chen had already been led away by a fellow sect disciple, flying towards the high fortress where the Ice Castle Cultivators were stationed.

On their way, there was no sign of swords drawn and bows bent.

But such a demeanor made Dan Taijun’s heart sink uncontrollably.

...

“Master, why are you not here at a time like this!”

…

In the vacant expanse of the Ice Palace.

A soft and gentle voice echoed slowly.

“Rogue Cultivator Luo Chen?”

“Indeed, it is this junior.”

“Born of humble origins, established the Luo Tian Creed, achieved Foundation Establishment, and carried dual titles. In the Immortal Cultivation World of Yu Ding for three hundred years, you are indeed a peerless genius who has captivated the era. Even compared to the prodigies of The Seven Sects, you are second to none.”

“Ascendant Master is too kind; I do not deserve such praise.”

“This modesty of yours greatly differs from your earlier high-spirited and unrestrained manner. Lift up your head!”

Within the Ice Palace, emanating a thick aura of cold Yin energy.

Luo Chen slowly raised his head and looked at the woman sitting at the head of the room.

Unlike most Ice Castle Cultivators, who preferred to wear plain white clothes.

This Ascendant Master Yin Yue was donning a splendid palace gown, intricate and colorful patterns woven throughout, complemented by delicate jewelry.

Her face was breathtakingly beautiful, like a crescent moon that peeked through the clouds on an overcast day.

Alluring and extremely timid.

Shy and coy, yet seemingly ready to reveal a brightness unique to Ming Yue at any moment.

“You have quite a handsome appearance.”

These were not Luo Chen’s words.

Instead, it was the woman across from him who was evaluating him.

Ascendant Master Yin Yue smiled gently, but her next words were enough to make most Foundation Establishment True Cultivators tremble.

“Did you not know that the Qu family are my clan’s vassals?”

To beat a dog, one must look at the owner!

Luo Chen’s expression remained calm, as if he was unmoved.

He simply said indifferently, “Qu Zhenbiao made a promise before the fight that Ascendant Master would not involve herself in our disputes, and that we should settle it amongst ourselves. I just acted according to your wishes.”

“I did ask you to settle it amongst yourselves, but I didn’t tell you to be so ruthless, my dear!”

Ascendant Master Yin Yue’s tone was teasing.

Luo Chen’s expression changed drastically!

In his eyes, a clear sense of panic surfaced.

Ascendant Master Yin Yue covered her mouth and laughed lightly, “Look how scared you are. A useless cur like him is only fit for guarding the house, so it’s quite good that you taught him a lesson, lest he barks all over the place borrowing my prestige.”

Luo Chen’s expression somewhat relaxed.

He said with a touch of gratitude, “Luo Chen thanks Ascendant Master for her forgiveness.”

Ascendant Master Yin Yue shook her head and suddenly said, “I heard you can refine Jade Dew Pills, and they are of Ascendant Grade, aren’t they?”

Her sentence was phrased as a question.

But her tone was absolutely affirmative!

Luo Chen asked in confusion, “Has Ascendant Master Jueqing not told you about this?”

“My sister always likes to hide good things,” Ascendant Master Yin Yue said with a smile, “especially men. Yes, especially good men like you who can refine pills!”

Luo Chen’s face showed a shy expression.

He said uneasily, “Ascendant Master flatters me. My humble skills in pill refinement are not worth mentioning.”

“This is no flattery!”

Ascendant Master Yin Yue shook her head and said softly, “Your craftsmanship could rejuvenate a Golden Core Sect!”

“Luo Chen, are you interested in joining my Yin Yue clan?”

Luo Chen hesitated.

This hesitation, seen in the eyes of the woman, greatly piqued her interest.

“You should know that Jueqing’s Clan is already in decline. But my Yin Yue clan, aside from myself, has another Early Golden Core Stage junior brother. Even the Sect Leader is on my side!”

“If you join our clan, within The Seven Sects, you will be second only to the Budding Cultivator!”

“You will be provided with all sorts of resources without shortchanging you!”

“Not only that, you can form a Dao Companion Cultivator relationship with my chief disciple and double cultivate The Great Dao Path!”

“Right, even for your Core Formation, I can ask Sect Leader to fully support you!”

Listening to these terms one by one.

Luo Chen’s eyes revealed a longing desire.

He swallowed and, with a dry throat, said, “Ascendant Master, is this really appropriate?”

“What’s inappropriate about it?”

“Ascendant Master Jueqing has treated me well, provided support along my journey. If I were to switch allegiance…”

“Ha ha, we are all one family, what talk is there of switching allegiance?”

We are all one family, indeed!

At these words, the wavering in Luo Chen’s eyes deepened.

Ascendant Master Yin Yue was not hurried, feeling almost certain that he would agree to her proposal.

First, to seize an advantage and challenge him.

Then, to utilize a simple enchantment technique to sway his will.

Finally, to promise him substantial benefits, even alleviating concerns about tarnishing his reputation.

Such combined methods left no Foundation Establishment True Cultivator able to refuse her!

“The terms offered by me, Ascendant Master Yin Yue, are far more generous than those of Ascendant Master Jueqing — Luo Chen cannot refuse!”

Just as she was secretly looking forward to it.

Luo Chen spoke with a trembling voice, a struggle in his demeanor but resolve in his words:

“I thank the Ascendant Master for her kindness, but I cannot decide on this matter alone; I must consult Ascendant Master Jueqing before making a decision.”

“Hmm?”

Yin Yue was taken aback.

She almost thought she had heard wrong.

“Are you sure…”

Before she could speak again, the palace doors flew open, and a powerful current of air mixed with yellow sand and snowflakes swept in.

Ascendant Master Yin Yue’s face changed dramatically, and she quickly struck out with her palm.

The yellow sand and snow immediately dispersed.

At the entrance of the Ice Palace, a prominent figure appeared.

A pair of eyes, devoid of compassion or affection, fixed on her with domineering intensity.

“Junior sister, you are overstepping your bounds!”
