Chapter 516: Admission Fee
The Pill Master that Li Xingjiu mentioned was naturally Jing Yan.
Although Jing Yan was young, his attainments in the Alchemy Dao were, in some respects, even more impressive than those of Li Xingjiu himself. At the very least, when Jing Yan had refined the Third-level Elixir that treated Mr. Zhou Tian’s Martial Arts Meridians, Li Xingjiu had been unable to do so.
The elder in the dark gold robe listened to Li Xingjiu’s words and revealed a barely noticeable smile on his face.
He evidently didn’t take much interest in Li Xingjiu’s words. Lanqu County was just a relatively small Commandery in the Heavenly Origin Continent. It was not known for having particularly strong Pill Masters. He knew Li Xingjiu was the president of the Lanqu County City Alchemist Association and also the most capable Pill Master in Lanqu County when it came to Alchemy.
However, even a Sixth-level Alchemist like Li Xingjiu was hardly noticeable within Pill Country.
How high could the attainments in the Alchemy Dao of the person recommended by Li Xingjiu be? Therefore, he didn’t hold much expectation for the individual Li Xingjiu recommended.
The man in the dark gold robe, the president of the Golden Sparrow Commerce, was named Bai Lan.
Bai Lan casually asked Li Xingjiu, "The person you’re talking about, what is his name?"
"His name is Jing Yan," replied Li Xingjiu.
"Jing Yan? I have not heard of this name before," Bai Lan shook his head. "What level Pill Master is he?"
It would be odd if Bai Lan had heard of Jing Yan. Jing Yan became famous in Lanqu County, yet Pill Country and Lanqu County were separated by more than a dozen Commandery Cities. How could Jing Yan’s name have reached Pill Country so soon? Besides, even the Lanqu County Prince wasn’t someone Bai Lan paid much attention to.
"Four years ago, he was already a Third-level Alchemist," the last time Li Xingjiu saw Jing Yan in the Prince Manor of Lanqu County, Jing Yan was indeed a Third-level Alchemist. He didn’t know whether Jing Yan had made any breakthroughs in the Alchemy Dao over these few years.
