Chapter 103: Is going to die

They didn't stop them, so soon they were inside that place, and many people were surprised when they saw Xie Meiyu.

"Honorary Elder Xie, nice to see you." They said as they bowed back and forth, disciples and some outer elders as well.

After walking through a sprawling, nicely decorated building, Xie Meiyu entered the main hall, where there were a few people.

"Elder Xie, long time no see, what brings you here?" the senior person in this place asked.

One of the 7 Head Elders of the External Sect.

"Elder, long time no see, is Elder Sister Mu in the sect?" she asked directly and the elder shook his head.

"Elder Mu is outside the sect at the moment, there is only Elder Fen, do you want to go over there?" the elder asked back, and Xie Meiyu nodded.

"Please sign me in with one more person. I will leave immediately." She said and quickly had several procedures done, and soon they were both again traveling in a flying boat to one of the central peaks of the sect, which they arrived at shortly thereafter.

This mountain peak was really big and beautiful. It had quite a few disciples here and there chatting and carrying things.

"This is the Inner Peak of the Sect's Alchemy Hall, when you're inside you'll understand everything quite well." Xie Meiyu said as she introduced him to the peak a bit.

The rich spiritual energy in this place was to be admired.

'They have good spiritual arrays, though they seem to be... A bit outdated? They don't work properly or perhaps, they're not of a very high level.' Tang Yin thought, looking at the surroundings.

And after a long walk, they finally arrived at their destination.

Just as they arrived, two people were coming out.

"Elder Xie, long time no see, what brings you here?" the one in front asked with some surprise, and Xie Meiyu then smiled.

"Elderly Fen, I didn't expect to find you here. I have some things I want to talk to you about, can we talk?" She asked with a smile after finding the person she was looking for at the gates.

Elder Fen, of course, nodded.

She wasn't a very old woman, but she looked to be about 50 years old. Being an Internal Elder and high level in the Hall of Alchemy, she respected Xie Meiyu for her talent so good at alchemy. Besides that, she was promoted to Honored Elder because of her great friendship with the Central Elder of the Hall of Alchemy, one of the greatest alchemical forces on the continent, Mu Ruxue.

With such support, everyone in the sect had to respect Xie Meiyu to a certain degree.

After that little exchange, the four people walked a little to the side, and Xie Meiyu looked at the person behind Elder Fen.

"She is?" Xie Meiyu asked doubtfully, and Elder Fen smiled.

"Elder Xie, this is my new disciple, Lu Xia." She said and then stepped a little to the side, and Lu Xia bowed to Xie Meiyu.

"Greetings, Elder Xie. My name is Lu Xia, an inner disciple of the Alchemy Hall." She said quickly, and Xie Meiyu nodded.

"Congratulations, Elder Fen, is this your second disciple or did you accept another one when you were away?"

"Actually, she is the third one, the first one you already know, although she is no longer my disciple, that girl since she learned from you and Elder Mu, advanced, and now she is one of the central disciples. The second one is a talented young man from a local family and she is a talented disciple from a nearby empire.

Each time the sect is improving its students." Answered Elder Fen to Xie Meiyu's question with a smile, and they both nodded.

"What did you want to talk about, Elder Xie?" she asked hesitantly, and Xie Meiyu nodded.

"I want to use my status as an Honored Elder to grant inner disciple status to him, that's why I was going around looking for Big Sister Mu, but she's not in the sect, do you think you can arrange it for me?" she asked, and Elder Fen was surprised and looked at Tang Yin doubtfully.

'Only in the Spirit Entry Realm? Well, maybe he's an alchemist...' She thought with a look of disdain at first after seeing that he was missing an arm, but she quickly wiped it off her face and then looked at Xie Meiyu.

"Is he your disciple, Elder Xie?" she asked, and Xie Meiyu shook her head. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"No, he is not my disciple, does he need to be?" replied Xie Meiyu with a frown, but Elder Fen quickly shook her head.

"No, no, it's not like that. It's just that, being an inner disciple isn't simple with that cultivation, is he some genius alchemist? By cultivation... The elders wouldn't agree, but if he's an alchemist then it would work out." She replied, causing Xie Meiyu to frown slightly.

'There's something strange, what's wrong with her? Even if Tang Yin's cultivation is low, as an Honored Elder I can get at least 3 disciples into the sect at my whim, why is she talking nonsense?' She thought doubtfully.

Tang Yin, for his part, had already noticed what was going on, at least a little.

That look of disdain at the start, when she saw his arm, couldn't escape him, so he let out a small snort with his mouth.

"Is something wrong?" Elder Fen asked as she noticed this, and Tang Yin shrugged.

"No, nothing." He replied calmly, causing her to frown and Xie Meiyu was puzzled but said nothing.

"Although he is an alchemist, he is not interested in being one all the time. But I can assure you that in cultivation, there is no greater genius than him in the whole sect, that's why I want to use my status as an elder to get him in, I just need you to tell me if you can do the procedures.

It is clear to me that it is totally possible, don't forget who was the person who granted me this status." Xie Meiyu replied firmly, and Elder Fen looked at her for a moment and then averted her gaze.

"I'm sorry, Elder Xie. I cannot do the procedures. You do not meet the requirements to enter the sect, let alone be an inner disciple. But... I can grant you a token to register next month for the tests to enter the sect." She replied, surprising Xie Meiyu.

She immediately knew that something strange had happened while she was away.

Still, she was annoyed.

"So, you're denying my Honored Elder token?" She asked coldly, and Elder Fen frowned slightly.

For a moment, she swallowed saliva but still replied.

"I don't mean that, but... It's the rules of the sect. He's not even qualified to be an external disciple; I can't handle him to be an inner disciple." She replied, and Xie Meiyu frowned and was about to reply, but Tang Yin put his hand on her shoulder and shook his head.

"It's fine like this, Meiyu. Entering through the back door is not my style. Anyway, I was going to ask to be tested so that they would prove my capabilities and there would be no doubt about it. So don't worry." Tang Yin said, and Xie Meiyu looked at him for a moment and then nodded.

"It's alright, Elder Fen. We'll do as you say." She replied with a small sigh, and Elder Fen nodded and then handed Tang Yin a token.

Of these tokens, not many are given out each time disciples are accepted. Only 100 to 500 chosen people can have it, and it gives them some advantages, but at the same time, it is a great disadvantage.

"Then it's done, Elder Xie, I must retire. I have things to do." Elder Fen said quickly and turned around and left.

"I'm sorry, Tang Yin. I think something strange has happened in the sect." Xie Meiyu said after seeing that Elder Fen was no longer in sight, and Tang Yin smiled.

"Relax, that old woman and her disciple despised me. The disciple almost laughed when you said I was the greatest talent. Heh, I originally wanted to help them, but I think this world is better off without both of them." Tang Yin said with a cold smile.

"Help them?" she asked doubtfully, and Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders.

"The alchemical cultivation technique they are practicing is horrible, if they are not careful, they will die in a few years. They have used that technique to rise in a short time, it brings consequences." Tang Yin said, and Xie Meiyu was shocked.

"So that's why this little old woman went from being an external elder to becoming a high-level inner elder?" It slipped out of her mouth at that moment, and Tang Yin smiled.

"Come, let's go to my courtyard." Xie Meiyu said after that, and both of them departed from there, it was not good to talk in such a place.
