Inside a hall. A woman with long black hair wearing a long sexy red dress was sitting cross-legged in front of an alchemy furnace. She looks so serious, watching the furnace in front of her, as she adjusts her Fire Energy that continues to flow into the furnace.
In front of her were two middle-aged men and a middle-aged woman. Their eyes were focused on her furnace.
The white-haired man nodded in agreement. He then asked the middle-aged woman. "Are you interested in taking her as your disciple, Qin Zheng? If-"
"I will take her as my disciple, Jiu Meng." Qin Zheng immediately interrupted him. From the start, she had seen the woman latent talent in alchemy, so she didn't want to hand her over to someone else.
"Haha! You are unlucky, Jiu Meng."
"Shut up, Ye Jie!" Jiu Meng cursed, as he gritted his teeth. Although he wanted her to become his disciple, he couldn't go against Qin Zheng either. Because her status was higher than his, he also had to admit that her alchemy abilities were better than his.
Three hours later, the woman sighed softly, and she withdrew her fire energy. She then opened the furnace and took out the five pills inside the furnace using her energy. But her eyes were filled with disappointment, and she sighed heavily. 'Sigh, I still can't concoct superior-grade pills.'
Qin Zheng immediately flew to the front. She looked at the pills in the woman's hands and nodded in satisfaction. "What's your name? And where are you from?"
The woman immediately stood up; she then bowed slightly to Qin Zheng and introduced herself. "My name is Hua Xiangyue, Elder. And I just came from the southern continent."
"Do you want to be my direct disciple, Xiangyue?" Qin Zheng directly asked without beating around the bush.
"Huh?" Hua Xiangyue was taken aback by her question.
At first, she came to the holy central continent to calm herself down, and she wanted to think about her relationship with Xia Tian first. But she heard that the Sheng Imperial Sect was accepting new disciple registrations, and she had heard that the sect had the best alchemists in the Seven Star World, so she tried to apply to become a disciple. However, she did not expect to become a direct disciple of a sect elder. But now, an elder had offered her to be her direct disciple.
Qin Zheng then said to her. "Your alchemy skill is indeed extraordinary, Xiangyue. But you still need to hone it again, and I can help you improve it, so I want you to be my direct disciple."
"Yes, I am willing to be your direct disciple, Elder." Hua Xiangyue respectfully replied.
"Good! My name is Qin Zheng, and from now on you are my direct disciple." She said with a nod, then she took out a plaque from her storage ring, and gave it to Hua Xiangyue. "Come with me, Xiangyue."
"Yes, Master." Hua Xiangyue immediately followed Qin Zheng who had walked out first.
Ye Jie and Jiu Meng couldn't help but shake their heads, they were envious of Qin Zheng, because she had gotten such a talented student.
-------------------------------------
Qin Zheng brought Hua Xiangyue to her residence, and they were now seated opposite each other. "What is your reason for coming to this continent, Xiangyue? Do you already have a husband in the southern continent?"
Hua Xiangyue didn't immediately answer her question, and she thought for a while. But she still said it. "I don't have a husband yet, but I do have a man who has filled my heart, Master. To be honest, I came to this continent to calm myself down, and I also wanted to think about my relationship with him first. Even though I gave myself to him, I still haven't been ready to be with him, because his relationship is so messed up."
"Hmm? Does he have another woman?" As a strong cultivator, Qin Zheng sensed from the start that Hua Xiangyue had no Virgin Yin Energy anymore. Moreover, as an alchemist, one had to have a calm mind, and she could see that Hua Xiangyue seemed to be weighed down by something, so she decided to ask her. She asked her not because she wanted to meddle in his personal affairs, but because she wanted to know her direct disciple well.
Hua Xiangyue nodded at her. "He has several other women, Master."
"I see." Qin Zheng nodded in understanding. She could see that Hua Xiangyue was a proud and haughty woman, so she was no longer surprised that she couldn't accept such a relationship. "Is that guy that extraordinary, Xiangyue? Otherwise, he definitely won't be able to attract many women."
"Extraordinary? He's far from extraordinary, Master." Hua Xiangyue replied with a wry smile. She had always been proud of her alchemy skill, but everything changed when she met Xia Tian for the first time. She couldn't recognize his pills, yet he could recognize her pills so easily. Besides, she couldn't concoct superior-grade pills, but he could easily concoct them.
Qin Zheng raised her eyebrows upon hearing that. "Is he also an alchemist, Xiangyue?"
"Yes." Hua Xiangyue nodded at her. "He's only 17 years old, Master. But his alchemy abilities are several times higher than mine, and he can even concoct superior grades so easily."
"Huh?" Qin Zheng was shocked to hear that, and he didn't expect Hua Xiangyue to give herself to a 17-year-old youth. Moreover, judging by her expression and manner of speaking, she was filled with admiration. "Is he really that great, Xiangyue?"
Hua Xiangyue just nodded at her. "If my guess is correct, he will participate in the intercontinental competition later, Master. At that time, you will be able to witness his abilities for yourself, and I am sure that he will make new history in this world."
Qin Zheng did not understand why Hua Xiangyue could be so confident about Xia Tian, but she was still skeptical of her disciple's words. "Sigh, you don't need to think about him for now. Starting tomorrow, I will train you strictly, I'm sure you can surpass that man later."
'Surpassing Xia Tian? That's impossible, Master.' Hua Xiangyue inwardly muttered.
