Chapter 31 I want to challenge you
When Chen Yan heard Ling Jiuan's words, his face instantly turned bitter, and he looked at her helplessly.
She really has no idea of the sufferings of the world!
"Just? Ling Jiuan, do you want to listen to what you are saying?"
Ling Jiuan sighed, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
"I thought we could get a top-quality one."
There was a hint of reluctance in her tone.
After leaving the secret realm, she wanted to ask Lei Tingyi what happened when he made the elixir for the first time.
Chen Yan rolled his eyes, thinking that her expectations were too high.
"For a normal person, it would be lucky if the furnace didn't explode the first time. Not only did you succeed in one try, but you also produced nearly twenty mid-grade pills. What else do you want?"
Ling Jiuan frowned, as if he was thinking seriously about Chen Yan's words.
"Is that so?" she asked doubtfully.
Chen Yan nodded and said seriously.
"Of course! Do you know what happened in my first alchemy class?"
He deliberately kept it a secret, trying to arouse Ling Jiuan's curiosity.
Ling Jiuan looked at him curiously.
"No furnace explosion?"
she asked tentatively.
Chen Yan rolled his eyes.
"Is my young master a man who can blow up a furnace?"
There was a hint of pride in his tone.
Ling Jiuan looked at him suspiciously.
"So, you produced a low-grade elixir?"
Chen Yan had an unfathomable smile on his face.
"Guess what it is. If you guess it right, I'll give you a top-grade pill."
He teased her on purpose, wanting to see her reaction.
He felt that Ling Jiuan was too dull. Which girl could be so cold?
Ling Jiuan rolled his eyes, obviously not interested in his little tricks.
"Need not."
She said calmly.
Chen Yan had no choice but to reveal the answer.
"Actually, I didn't get anything out of it the first time I made an elixir."
After hearing this, Ling Jiuan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smug smile.
“Then I’m quite a genius!”
She said half jokingly.
Chen Yan got furious when he heard this and snorted in pretend anger.
"Look at your attitude!"
He muttered, but there was a hint of smile in his eyes.
Ling Jiuan carefully put the refined pills into the storage bag, each one seemed so precious.
Then she picked three and handed them to Chen Yan.
"I'll give you one as a souvenir."
Chen Yan curled his lips and took the pill with some dissatisfaction.
"We've been through thick and thin together, and you're only giving me three?"
He joked, trying to get a few more from Ling Jiuan.
However, Ling Jiuan withdrew his hand calmly.
"You don't lack elixirs, but I do."
When Chen Yan heard this, he stopped making a fuss.
He was well aware of Ling Jiuan's situation. A person without spiritual roots could naturally not compare with cultivators like them who had family support in terms of cultivation resources.
"Too."
He nodded.
"Are you going to make pills later?"
he asked curiously.
Ling Jiuan shook his head.
"We'll talk about it later. Let's find the spirit beast first, otherwise we'll really be ranked last."
She knew that on this trip to the secret realm, she not only had to fight for cultivation resources for herself, but also for a good ranking.
Chen Yan smiled.
"Yes, let's go!"
Afterwards, the two of them got ready and continued on their journey.
However, they had not walked forward for long when they met a group of people.
Ling Jiuan looked at these people with some confusion.
"Isn't there anyone leaving? What's going on with them?"
Chen Yan frowned and looked at these people carefully.
"Wen family?"
It took him a long time to realize what was going on.
“No wonder I didn’t see them after entering the secret realm. It turns out they took this road.”
Ling Jiuan smiled.
"I said there were no spirit beasts along the way. It turns out they were all killed."
However, she soon thought of another question.
"But why is no one touching those spiritual medicines?"
Chen Yan explained with a helpless smile.
"Every major family has its own medicinal field, and each disciple will have a fixed supply of elixirs. Therefore, they don't need to waste time collecting these spiritual herbs."
After hearing this, Ling Jiuan nodded in understanding, but couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The disciples of big families are really different. They don’t even care about spiritual medicine!
It’s a pity that neither she nor the unlucky original owner have this blessing!
However, this is good news for her because she can pick as many medicinal herbs as she wants to make pills.
When the Wen family saw Ling Jiuan and Chen Yan appear, different expressions appeared on their faces.
Wen Cheng, the eldest brother of the Wen family, a tall man with a calm face, was the first to break the silence.
He smiled at Chen Yan, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
"Master Chen? I didn't expect you to leave your own family's disciples behind and follow this kind of loser?"
Chen Yan was not angry after hearing this, but smiled instead.
"Aren't you from the Wen family quite bold? In hundreds of years, only two people have managed to walk out, and you still dare to come in."
At this moment, Wen Lan, a female disciple of the Wen family, a beautiful woman wearing a green dress and with a cold face, suddenly turned her eyes to Ling Jiuan.
"I heard that you are a physical cultivator with extraordinary strength."
"I'm going to challenge you."
After hearing this, Ling Jiuan chuckled and shook his head.
"No need for that. I'm here to find a spirit beast, not to fight."
She doesn't want to fight with anyone unless it is necessary.
However, Wen Lan did not intend to give up, her tone was cold.
"Are you afraid?"
Ling Jiuan's face turned cold instantly. She was about to open her mouth to refute but was stopped by Chen Yan.
"She is at the first level of foundation building. You are no match for her."
Chen Yan said calmly, looking at Wen Lan and smiling.
"Miss Wen, you are very capable, there is no need to embarrass Ling Jiuan!"
After hearing this, Wen Lan frowned slightly.
"Young Master Chen, are you going to stand up for her?"
Chen Yan frowned slightly.
"Please forgive others when you can, Miss Wen."
As the owner of an ice spiritual root, Wen Lan raised his hand and several sharp icy rays broke through the air, heading straight for Chen Yan and Ling Jiuan.
Chen Yan reacted quickly, swung his spear, and used his superb marksmanship to block Wen Lan's attack.
However, this was just the beginning of Wen Lan's attack.
The next moment, Wen Lan jumped up, her figure flipping in the air. She formed seals with her hands and released an even more violent icy light again.
This time, the target is Ling Jiuan.
Seeing this, Ling Jiuan subconsciously raised her hand to block, but the power of the icy light was too great. She only felt a huge force coming at her, and she was knocked away.
Her body drew an arc in the air and smashed straight into the barrier behind her.
Seeing this, Chen Yan's expression suddenly changed.
He didn't expect Wen Lan's attack to be so fierce, and he didn't expect Ling Jiuan to be affected by it.
He moved and flew after him, trying to catch Ling Jiuan in mid-air.
Just when Ling Jiuan was about to hit the barrier, Chen Yan finally grabbed her hand.
However, due to inertia and the aftermath of Wen Lan's attack, the two men were ultimately unable to stabilize their bodies and fell into the barrier together.
Inside the barrier, there was a flash of light, and the two figures disappeared from the spot.
Wen Lan's attack also failed. She floated in the air, looking in the direction of the barrier, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
