Chapter 3977: Blood Loss

d, Li Zhizhuan, who was furious, rushed in from outside and slapped her across the face."You viper woman, is it you who killed my father"She was a martial artist to begin with, and in her rage, she sl..."I..."

The middle-aged man's face was full of unwillingness. He was a wandering immortal, with no sect or background. It wasn't easy to cultivate to the Immortal Emperor realm over so many years.

The most important thing in cultivation is resources. He relied on his current methods for so many years, extorting some alchemists to obtain massive amounts of resources and satisfy his own cultivation.

I have always been victorious wherever I went, but today I was defeated twice in a row by the same young man.

The first extortion attempt failed, and he even lost a piece of ethereal cloud stone in the process.

Taking out three sets of materials for the Twelfth Rank Immortal Pills again, he only managed to get a low-grade pill.

Twice the price, a complete rip-off.

But the other person had reason on their side and was able to refute him, leaving him speechless.

Looking at the young man before him, he gritted his teeth, wishing he could slap him to death, the killing intent on his body almost uncontrollable.

Yet Ye Bufan seemed utterly oblivious: "What, you disagree This is the Xu Market; rules are everything here."

"If you think this is unfair, you can call the higher-ups over to judge and see if it's in accordance with regulations."

"You're ruthless! You just wait, this isn't over."

A middle-aged man naturally knew the other party's meticulous planning. The only one who would suffer was himself.

Now that the Grandmaster's status is high and his cultivation is strong, he dare not provoke him, so he has placed all his hatred on Ye Bufan's name.

She uttered a cutting remark, glared viciously, then turned and left.

As soon as he left, the crowd around erupted again.

Most people simply don't understand what really happened here. To the vast majority, Ye Bufan guiding an eleventh-rank Immortal Pill Master to refine a Sanbao Zhumai Dan was already impressive enough. It was therefore normal for there to be explosions during the refining process.

Even so, it wouldn't diminish their reverence for the young man.

"That's incredible, guiding others to refine a twelfth-order Xian Dan I've never even heard of such a thing..."

"Indeed, if not for this young master's intervention, Grand Alchemy Master would have been in quite a predicament today..."

The crowd buzzed with conversation, while the Grand Master strode directly towards Ye Bufan.

"Little girl Huahua, at your service. I would be honored to become your disciple, Master. Please accept me as your student!"

As she spoke, she bent her knees, ready to kneel and pay respects to her master.

This move instantly stunned everyone. The scene, which had been noisy just a moment ago, fell silent.

This is an eleventh-rank Immortal Pill Master. Even throughout the entire Upper Heavenly Domain, they hold a supreme position. No matter which major sect or faction they visit, they will be treated as a distinguished guest.

Here is such a great master, actually bowing down to become a disciple.

What is the origin of this young man How could he possess such charm, captivating even a figure as renowned as Master Dan in just a few hours

Ye Bufan was stunned for a moment, then reached out and helped Hua Qiqi up.

"No, no, forget about being my disciple for now. I'm not planning on taking on any students at the moment!"

Hua Qiqi's expression was complicated, with a mixture of grievance and disappointment.

As a genius from the Heavenly Domain, countless people had begged to become her disciples. Now that she was being asked to accept him as a student, he was rejected.

Could it be that my previous performance disappointed them and they didn't take me seriously at all

Hua Qiqì's voice was low, "Master thinks I am dull"

"No, no, really not meant that way."

Ye Bufan quickly said, "We can exchange ideas about alchemy. It'd be great to be friends and learn from each other. There's no need to make it a master-apprentice relationship."

"This..."

Hua Qiqi hesitated, her heart completely convinced by the other person's profound cultivation in alchemy. She sincerely wanted to become their disciple and didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Ye Bufan quickly said, "Fairy Hua, my name is Ye Bufan. How about we cooperate"

Hua Qiqi saw that the other party really didn't have any intention of taking disciples. She secretly sighed and said, "Master Ye, how do you want to cooperate"

"Well, you see, I don't have an alchemist's badge. Nobody trusts me when I set up a stall to sell alchemy."

To be honest, I've been setting up my stall there for more than a few hours and haven't opened yet. What do you say we collaborate I can help you with alchemy, how about it

At that time, Ye Bufan had just caused such a stir and had already established his prestige among these people.

Even if I set up a stall by myself now, it wouldn't be as awkward as before.

He said that to divert the other person's attention. Otherwise, if they insisted on following him to become his apprentice, it would be a bit troublesome.

Anyway, there are many people who go to find Hua Qiqi to refine pills. They are all lined up there, so it doesn't matter if you take some for yourself.

"Cooperation is possible, but not you helping me refine pills."

Hua Qiqi's beautiful eyes twinkled, "This is good. Master Ye, will you still guide me in alchemy as before I'll give all the profits to you, and I'll even be your apprentice how about that"

She is an extremely intelligent woman. After just two collaborations, she has discovered that this man is like a bottomless gold mine. Just a few pointers from him can give her new insights.

And realizing that his own shortcomings were all-round, to truly advance to the Twelfth Stage Immortal Pill Master, he had to learn from Ye Bufan in every aspect.

Hua Qiqi had a feeling that as long as she followed this man, she would be one step closer to reaching the next level.

"Okay, I'll do it your way!"

Ye Bufan could naturally see through the other person's intentions at a glance, but he was not opposed to this diligent and studious woman. He agreed on the spot.

"Excellent, thank you, Young Master Ye."

Although she wasn't able to formally become his disciple, the other party agreed to continue guiding her in this way. Hua Qiqi was still grateful and bowed respectfully.

"From now on, this stall is yours. I'm your apprentice, you decide everything."

She is dedicated to the pursuit of Taoism, and for self-improvement, she has put her own worth aside.

Ye Bufan didn't stand on ceremony, he nodded and with a wave of his hand, changed the sign next to him.

Before, Hua Qiqi mainly used alchemy to hone her skills, so she set a low price, charging for three materials to refine one furnace of pills.

And now he urgently needs resources, immediately raising the price back to normal, five portions of materials refining one furnace of pills.

"Um..."

At the sight of this, a hush fell over the crowd.

After Ye Bufan and the other successfully refined the twelfth-order immortal pill, the number of people gathered here tripled compared to before. The queue grew longer and longer, almost filling the entire Xu Market.

Everyone was lining up to refine alchemy, but unexpectedly, the price went up.

And those who had just seen Ye Bufan, one by one, were stunned and pounded their chests, regretting it immensely.

That bearded immortal even slapped himself twice, raising his hand. There was once an opportunity placed before him, but unfortunately, he didn't cherish it. The most painful thing in life is nothing more than this.

The chance to refine elixirs for free before was wasted. Now, if you want to find someone to refine them, the price has skyrocketed and you have to wait in line slowly.

These people complained and complained, but none of them left.

After all, such a highly skilled alchemist is rare to encounter. As cultivators, missing out once would be a lifelong regret, and we absolutely cannot miss out on this second chance.

Under Ye Bufan's leadership, the stall resumed business.ong Yi wore a grim expression. Although among his many sons, he favored the second prince most.But after all, Tuo Ba Yang was his own son, and the eldest son at that. Naturally, he hoped his son woul...
