Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Now it seems that it was Senior Sister Cang Long who rejected Han Zhan.

Of course, as for the real situation, Luo Chen didn’t want to delve into it.

He looked at the ice coffin, showing a thoughtful expression.

”According to what you said, Senior Sister possesses a special physique that can forcibly enhance one’s realm.”

”And you are afraid her physical body might fall into the hands of the unjust, meaning even in slumber, her physique still has...”

”Luo Chen!”

Before he could finish, Jueqing Fairy’s sharp voice cut in.

She even called him directly by his name.

Luo Chen looked over coldly.

Jueqing Fairy stiffened her neck to meet his gaze, but gradually couldn’t bear the pressure, with beads of cold sweat forming on her pale face.

She opened her mouth, speaking with difficulty: ”I sought you because of the ties between us, and also because Senior Sister was exceedingly good to you in the past. Now that your reputation is renowned, just like the name of Fire Spirit Lord back then, I trust you.”

”If you are dissatisfied with the reward of sky qi, if you still resent me for forcing Luo Tian Sect to the battlefield back then, I... I... I am willing...”

By the end, the woman almost couldn’t bring herself to speak, her thin lips nearly biting through.

”No need to say more, I will save her!”

With a wave of his hand, the ice castle that had fallen to the ground instantly soared into the air.

The miscellaneous residual Divine Consciousness Imprints inside dissipated in an instant.

The Moonlight Ice Castle landed in his hand, and in a moment, Luo Chen, with his extensive artifact refining experience, understood the manipulation techniques of this treasure.

Like the Primordial Chaos Tripod, this treasure contains the ability of spatial storage, so it can hold Cang Long’s physical body.

Jueqing Fairy seemed somewhat bewildered, both by Luo Chen’s words and by her own interrupted ones.

She stared blankly at Luo Chen, as if waiting for him to finish his unfinished words.

However, Luo Chen merely smiled.

”Senior Sister Cang Long was really good to me back then. Saving her is my duty; why would I need any reward?”

”Just let her stay by my side, I will find a way to heal her.”

The words were sincere, and the smile was warm.

Those deep eyes were candid at this moment, without a trace of pretense.

The woman was somewhat caught off guard, but this answer seemed anticipated.

She took a deep breath and bowed to Luo Chen.

”Gu Xiaorou thanks the True Master!”

...

Jueqing Fairy left.

But only for the time being.

After Luo Chen learned about the condition of the remaining cultivators of the Ice Castle, he sent Xu Xiao Liu to find Yang Pingdu, instructing Yang Pingdu to incorporate the female disciples of the Ice Castle under his name for easier care.

After she left, Luo Chen slightly curled his lips.

Seeing the seemingly fragile Jueqing Fairy today, she was actually as formidable as before!

In her words, she used Luo Chen’s good reputation as the ”flaw” to spur him on.

One could imagine that if Luo Chen didn’t save Cang Long, or had any designs on Cang Long’s physical body, Jueqing Fairy would undoubtedly be ready to ruin his reputation.

This would not bode well for Luo Chen.

His current reputation helps him forge broad connections, crucial for future confrontations with that old coot from the Five Elements Divine Sect. It also increases his importance in the eyes of the Dark Abyss Sect; even if they want to pursue the old matters of Cangwu Mountain, they have to consider his skills in the Dao of Alchemy.

So, his reputation must not be tarnished!

Moreover!

Luo Chen’s gaze fell on the ice coffin in front of him, which he had re-imbued with an array, revealing a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

Senior Sister Cang Long indeed treated him well back then.

She helped him refine the Prosperity and Decline True Fire in the forbidden area of the Ice Castle, told him her insights and experiences in Core Formation, and made him understand the pros and cons of his own talent.

It can be said that Luo Chen’s current cultivation level owes much to Senior Sister Cang Long’s efforts.

Most importantly, Senior Sister Cang Long was among the few who sincerely helped him without much ulterior motive!

Along the way, Luo Chen met many ”noble benefactors.”

But whether it was Mi Shuhua, Jueqing Fairy, Han Zhan, or Fu Chaosheng, they all appeared friendly but in fact harbored ill intentions.

Either they coveted his Dao of Alchemy skills, or they had designs on his physical body for soul snatching, or they caused him to lose fifty years of lifespan.

Only Cang Long simply wanted to establish a good relationship with him.

As he gently stroked the cold lid of the coffin, a genuine smile appeared on Luo Chen’s face.

”She will wake up!”
