Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1071: Chapter 424: Tianshan Cang Long, Heavenly Fire Zhenlong (Double Monthly Tickets Please!)_2

This person’s voice was not only pleasant to the ear but her appearance was even more stunning.

Even the renowned Ascendant Master Yin Yue of Ice Castle, famous for her glamorous and charming beauty, seemed to fade in her presence.

However, what caught the world’s attention was never her looks, but her strength.

Cang Long Fairy!

The supreme being of Ice Castle, a powerful existence at the Ninth Layer of Golden Core!

Rumors had it that she was on the verge of achieving Golden Core Finalization, just a hair’s breadth away from the Nascent Soul.

Jueqing Fairy, standing by her side, couldn’t help but furrow her brows at this statement.

”Did Luo Yun Sect just make empty promises about helping us take over Great Snow Mountain?”

Cang Long smiled faintly, ”They didn’t specify a time. Ten years also count as fulfilling the promise, as would a hundred or a thousand years. But can Ice Castle still be as prominent as today a thousand years later, when you and I have turned to dust?”

Nine Golden Core Ascendant Masters were already the limit of Ice Castle’s available resources.

Advancing further was impossible!

What if there were one or two more Golden Cores? They couldn’t afford to nurture them!

With Ice Castle’s current foundation, they simply couldn’t sustain so many Golden Core Ascendant Masters.

When the time came, internal struggles for resources would likely cause bloodshed within Ice Castle itself.

Just look, even with only nine Golden Core Cultivators, signs of internal strife had already appeared within Ice Castle over the past century.

The nine of them had split into five factions!

In any other Great Sect, this would be laughable.

”Then what should we do?” Jueqing Fairy asked anxiously.

If Ice Castle couldn’t expand, once the next generation of disciples, Bingbo, and Dan Tai achieved Core Formation, chaos would likely ensue within Ice Castle.

Cang Long pursed her lips, slender fingers pinching a piece of rice paper.

Under the cold sunlight, the handwriting on the rice paper seemed to still carry the warmth of the person who wrote it.

”Xiao Rou, hasn’t Dan Chenzi sent us exactly what we needed amidst the heavy snow?”

Hearing the name Xiao Rou, Jueqing Fairy’s complexion stiffened.

She spoke rigidly, ”Are you going to help Luo Chen?”

”He is a Guest Elder of our Ice Castle, and he’s being bullied. Shouldn’t we help?” Cang Long countered.

Graceful eyes surveyed Jueqing Fairy, and she couldn’t help but shake her head.

”Xiao Rou, with your temperament, I really don’t know how you managed to encounter Pill Refiners of such genius like Shang Hu and Luo Chen one after another.”

”Don’t mention that person!”

”Heh, alright, I won’t mention him if you say so,” Cang Long gave a slight smile and gently unfolded the letter in her hand. The writing was clear to see. ”See? A hundred bottles of Jade Dew Pills a year is far from his limit. For the sake of taking revenge on Flame Alliance, he has offered to refine a thousand bottles of Jade Dew Pills for us yearly!”

”A thousand bottles, and of Ascendant Grade too!”

”You know better than I what this means!”

Jueqing Fairy’s slender eyebrows twitched, ”Distributed evenly, it could help hundreds of Foundation Establishment Disciples accelerate their cultivation. If we focus it, it could allow ten Foundation Establishment True Disciples to quickly reach Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization. Or even more extremely, with our help as Golden Core Ascendant Masters, we could force a talented Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator disciple to reach Foundation Establishment Perfection within ten years and break through to the Golden Core Period!”

”Tsk tsk, seems like your understanding of pill refinement hasn’t fallen behind at all, then Shang...” Cang Long shook her head and sighed. ”A brilliant Pill Refinement Grandmaster can truly rejuvenate a sect. This time, you have done well.”

Receiving praise from her Senior Sister, who was both a teacher and mother figure to her, Jueqing Fairy rarely showed a smile on her face.

But before she could beam with happiness,

Cang Long let out a sigh again, ”But you haven’t done well enough! For a talent like Dan Chenzi, ordinary means of wining and dining are simply not enough.”

Jueqing Fairy muttered, ”I’ve already given him quite a lot.”

”But he has been wronged, so many times! Moreover, often when he is wronged, he doesn’t come to you.” Cang Long blinked, ”Given that, do you still think you’ve done well enough?”

Jueqing Fairy fell silent.

Some things just couldn’t be stated so clearly.

Her attitude towards Luo Chen was indeed complex.

On the one hand, she loathed men, but Luo Chen was truly exceptional, repeatedly overturning situations against the odds, beyond her expectations.

On the other hand, her lineage within Ice Castle had been waning, and any overt favoritism shown towards Luo Chen could easily draw unwanted attention from within.

Despite her caution, Luo Chen had now been noticed, becoming a Guest Elder of Ice Castle instead of continuing solely under her Jueqing’s Clan as a subsidiary subordinate.

As for the third point,

It was not her problem, but Luo Chen’s.

He was simply not someone contented with being under others!

When faced with problems, he might seek her help, but any time she tried to use the situation to her advantage,

Luo Chen would withdraw from the challenge and then rely on his own strength to resolve his issues.

Frankly, he was unwilling to depend too deeply on her.

Even Jueqing Fairy felt that regarding the battle at Danxia Luo Tian, without her presence, Luo Chen would still have had the means to make a do-or-die stand against Qin Tairan.

In the silence, she spoke softly, ”Then what should we do this time?”

”Let’s send someone!”

Cang Long spoke indifferently, ”Either you go, or Bo Shuang goes. She’s quite interested in Luo Chen, and previously even sent Qiu Liang Yue to Tianshan to participate in the battle at Danxia Luo Tian. If you don’t go, she would likely be willing to help Luo Chen.”

Thinking of Bo Shuang, Jueqing Fairy felt slightly uneasy.

Ever since that man came along, Bo Shuang had enjoyed competing with her for things.

Even if she was no longer interested in men, how could she tolerate others coveting what was hers?
