C87 Dan Wu City
Ji Lei wanted to answer, but when he heard what the Great Elder said, his body stiffened and his face became unnatural.
On the other hand, the Great Clan Elder said to Ji Lei with a satisfied face: "Hehe, you brat, you don't have to fool me. I have seen everything that happened with the Azure Cloud Sect, otherwise I wouldn't have let you receive this punishment."
However, his words made Ji Lei unable to understand what he meant. The Great Elder saw Ji Lei's puzzled expression, so he smiled and said, "During this time, you should go out and hide."
Ji Lei was shocked when he heard that. His eyes started to look away, as if he was hit by something by the Great Elder. However, he still had to pretend that he didn't know anything.
"Don't try to hide it from me, after all these years of Azure Cloud Sect, the only person who would dare to kill an elder is you!" The Great Elder's tone suddenly became stern. When Ji Lei heard these words, his heart suddenly sank. How did the Great Elder know about this …
"But... "Next time is not the case." When Ji Lei heard this, he almost fell over. He raised his head to look at the Head Elder with a puzzled expression, hoping that someone would be able to answer his question. The Head Elder looked into Ji Lei's eyes, stroked his beard, and said to Ji Lei, "You are leaving the sect in ten days, and during this time, you will be at home refining pills."
"Pills?" Ji Lei was stunned, but the Head Elder had already handed him a few scrolls of prescription and said to Ji Lei, "These are basically all second or third rank pills. If I were to give you ten days, can you refine one of these?"
Ji Lei quickly counted the pill recipes. There were eight volumes in total! The cycle for refining a Grade 2 pill was around one to two days. Unless one was extremely proficient, it was impossible to refine 8 Grade 2 to Grade 3 pills in ten days! Not to mention that Ji Lei had never tried to refine these pills before, he was extremely lucky!
"This... I can't do it. " Ji Lei shook his head decisively. What the Great Elder said was too embarrassing.
"Even if I can't, I still have to!" When Ji Lei heard this, he could not help but shrink his neck, thinking that the Great Elder would continue to turn serious. Unexpectedly, the Great Elder suddenly narrowed his eyes, and said to Ji Lei with a smile, "What do you think, if I reveal that you killed Lee Xuan … Who else in the sect would protect you … And there's the two brothers, Ji Yun, Sikong Ji and Sikong Miao, and also so many disciples with Summer Pavilion … "
"Fine, fine, fine. Stop talking, I'll do it. I'll do it, won't I …" Ji Lei heard this and broke out in cold sweat. Without waiting for the Great Elder to finish speaking, he quickly agreed. This was not Ji Lei's intention, but he was still under the roof and had no choice but to lower his head …
Hearing Ji Lei's reply, the Head Elder regained his calm demeanor. He patted Ji Lei's shoulder and said with a sense of relief, "This kid is very enlightened. The road ahead is a long road ahead of us."
Ji Lei pursed his lips. This old man is simply a smiling face, judging from his treacherous look, you can tell that he is a cunning old fox. Ji Lei is still a little too inexperienced in front of him, he could be considered to be being coerced by the First Elder to refine pills …
Ji Lei raised his head and suddenly felt that something was wrong: "Hmm? Is that all? If we were to refine a medicinal pill, then what is the purpose of the 'hide from the wind' that Great Elder mentioned earlier? "
"Of course not!" The Great Elder said, "This old man wants you to refine pellets for ten days, rest for five days. In fifteen days, you will have to leave the sect to participate in Pill Martial Association!"
"Pill Martial Association?" Ji Lei frowned: "What is this?"
"If you go north from the bottom of the Azure Cloud Mountain, you will be able to arrive at a city. This city is surrounded by two names, Cloud Divine Country and Chujiang State, and does not belong to any country, but no country dares to have any thoughts about this city. This city, is the Pill Martial City!"
"Pill Martial City?"
It will be held in the Eastern Region once every four years, and with the power of the martial arts and the fame of the dan, you will be able to exchange pointers with the experts from the Eastern Region. If you can win the championship, then you will be able to obtain the highest reward in Pill Martial City! How about it, after hearing it, your blood will boil, and you wish that you can immediately participate in Pill Martial Association? "
"… …." None at all. "
"Eh? How could this be? " He sighed and said, "Since you don't want to go, then forget it. After all, I can't force you to do something that you don't want to do. Since that's the case, I should expose your identity..."
"After disciple heard this, his blood boiled! A wave of excitement! Great Elder, please allow this disciple to proceed towards the Pill Martial City and participate in the Pill Martial Association! "
The Great Elder looked at Ji Lei who was kneeling on the ground with a pious expression and nodded, "Very good! My Azure Cloud Sect just needs a hot-blooded and impulsive disciple like you! "
"Then... Can I go now? " Ji Lei looked up and asked.
"Of course you can!" The Great Clan Elder waved his hand and passed a Storage Ring to Ji Lei: "The ingredients are all here, leave it to me! "Hurry up and forge the pill!"
Ji Lei hurriedly left with the recipe and the Storage Ring. He was completely scared out of his wits and ran as fast as he could. He didn't dare to stay here for even a second longer! This was not a benevolent look that the Great Elder should have! This was simply a demon!
Ji Lei cursed as he returned home without a word.
Returning home, Ji Lei locked himself up without saying a word. He then looked at the eight scrolls of pill formulas on the floor and his mouth was filled with bitterness.
In these ten days, the Great Elder had basically given him an impossible task! How could he refine so many pills in ten days!
"But since you've agreed … "Let's just do our best." Ji Lei quickly cheered up from his low mood. After all, what the Great Clan Elder said wasn't all bad, at least Ji Lei could still compete with the Alchemist warriors from many places in Pill Martial City, for the benefit of Ji Lei's cultivation, there was no doubt!
Rubbing his hands, Ji Lei then turned to look at the Dark Cold Cauldron beside him. With a wave of his hand, the Dark Cold Cauldron was sucked in front of him, and after that, Ji Lei started a familiar pill fire. The flames inside the Medicinal Cauldron gradually lit up, and from within the Storage Ring, all sorts of herbs flew out and danced in front of Ji Lei.
The entire room was filled with the scent of medicine.
