The man in gray robe was so shocked that he even stuttered when he spoke: "S-the Great Elder's...apprentice?"
How is this possible?
The Great Elder has a picky eye and has never had a disciple for many years. Who doesn’t know this?
Now, a person appears out of nowhere, claiming to be his apprentice. This——
Ye Xiyue's eyebrows didn't move, as if she didn't hear the strangeness in Yao Luoying's words.
It was Yao Yezhou who came out to smooth things over: "Well, um, the fourth elder is still waiting, let's go in quickly?"
When he said this, the man in gray robe finally came back to his senses, and the eyes he looked at Ye Xiyue and the others suddenly became very complicated.
But this was not something he was qualified to interfere with, so he finally chose to get out of the way.
"Miss Luo Ying, please——"
Yao Luoying crossed the barrier and added: "By the way, don't forget to send someone to report this to the great elder. Presumably, the old man must miss his only disciple very much."
The man in gray robe responded yes.
Ye Xiyue raised her eyebrows: "Thank you very much. I really haven't seen Master for a long time and I miss him very much."
The smile on Yao Luoying's face froze. She never expected that Ye Xiyue, instead of having any guilt, actually climbed up the pole!
With a cold face, she flew towards the mountain peak where the fourth elder was.
Ye Xiyue followed slowly, not showing any embarrassment or nervousness, but looking around calmly.
The Medicine Clan is indeed a Medicine Clan. There are so many medicinal materials all over the mountains and plains. She saw many treasures at a glance.
It's really convenient to make medicine in a place like this.
Suddenly, her eyes narrowed.
Yao Yezhou turned his head and saw Ye Xiyue staring in a certain direction.
He followed her gaze and saw a group of people refining elixirs together on the top of a certain mountain.
There were about ten people, all of whom looked very young. In front of each of them was a medicinal cauldron with flames burning inside.
"Those are the disciples of the clan competing against each other."
Yaoye Zhou explained.
The Medicine Clan is good at refining elixirs, and all members of the tribe are alchemists, so competition is fierce.
Especially the younger generation often get together and compete with each other.
Yao Mingyuan looked over there and sighed: "It seems that Danyang is going to win again this time."
Yao Yezhou smiled and said: "After all, he is a genius with the same strength as Luo Ying. How can ordinary people compare?"
Yao Luoying said nothing, but looked over there, her cheeks slightly red.
However, at this moment, a clear and calm girl's voice sounded.
"He's going to lose."
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were instantly silent.
Yao Luoying turned around and looked at Ye Xiyue with a frown: "What are you talking about?"
Yao Yezhou was also stunned: "No way? Danyang has never lost compared to them."
Ye Xiyue said quietly: "The premise is that he can make this pill."
Yao Mingyuan looked surprised: "Ah? You mean, his elixir can't be successful? This... shouldn't be possible, right? That's——"
Bang!
Before she could finish her sentence, a muffled sound suddenly came from the top of the mountain.
There was a faint smell of burning.
The young man standing in front of the medicine cauldron frowned, then seemed to notice something and looked up.
Yao Yezhou opened his mouth with a look of disbelief on his face: "...really it didn't work?"
The next moment, the young man moved and came this way.
Yao Luoying bit her lip and stepped forward: "Danyang, are you okay?"
The young man's eyes did not stay on her, but looked directly behind her.
Yao Luoying's eyes flashed slightly and she said, "Did you hear that? She probably didn't mean to say that just now..."
The young man did not listen to her words and only nodded politely at Ye Xiyue:
