Chapter 431 Visiting Zhan Qingyue

"Four pills! How is this possible?", Huang Mei exclaimed. She herself had concocted three pills out of three set of ingredients. It was already an incredible acheivement to not waste any set of ingredients but Zhan Chen went beyond.

"Senior, you may take a look at my pills. If my pills are inferior, I will admit defeat and handover the pill formula of Five harmony soul resurgence pill to you. In addition, I will bring out a Five harmony soul resurgence pill", Zhan Chen spoke.

He took out all four of his pills and stored them in a jade container. After that, he handed over his pills to Huang Mei.

"Seniors, if you allow I will take a quick trip to Senior Wu Li's place. You can determine the result of our alchemy contest in between this period", Zhan Chen looked towards Shui Liying and Huang Mei. Both the emperors nodded their heads in response to his words. Zhan Chen thanked them before walking out of Shui Liying's personal peak.

.....

"Brat, what brings you here?", Zhan Wu Li detected the presence of Zhan Chen as soon as he approached her personal mountain. She appeared infront of him and looked towards him with am amiable expression.

"Senior, you are probably aware that the outside world is chaotic at this moment. It is one battle after another. I am offered to lead our disciples in the Sky dragon alliance and I have agreed. I don't know what mission I will be assigned to. So, I thought about seeing big sis before going to the Jade harmony city", Zhan Chen replied.

"I have heard about your deeds in the Yellow stone city. You have really performed well there. After the calamity that befallen our clan, this Xuantian sect has sheltered me. It is heartening to see that one of my clansman could help out the sect in the time of it's need", Zhan Wu Li spoke. She was really happy after hearing about the acheivements of Zhan Chen.

"Senior, it is my duty. I will do whatever possible to protect the interests of the Xuantian sect", Zhan Chen humbly added.

"Don't push yourself too much. You have already done enough. No one will blame you now even if you withdraw", Zhan Wu Li softly spoke.

"Senior, the Sky dragon alliance is the best opportunity I can ask for. There are countless dangers but there is also possible opportunities to increase my cultivation. Therefore, I choose to take the risk", Zhan Chen explained.

"Be careful then. Withdraw if you can't handle a task. If there are any troubles in the Sky dragon alliance, you can contact me", Zhan Wu Li spoke. She took out three communication tailsman and handed them to Zhan Chen.

"Senior, thank you", Zhan Chen bowed his head.

"No need to act formal. As a Zhan clan member, this is the least I can do for you", she spoke with a smile on her face.

"Your elder sister is living in the back mountain. I have tried but could not improve her condition. Her mood was down for a while. But currently, she seems to have become more accepting about her situation. Instead of thinking about the problem with her cultivation base, she has developed a new interest in gaining knowledge. It has been days since she is studying those books. I can tell that, she is genuinely interested in gaining knowledge", Zhan Wu Li spoke. There was a gentle expression on her face when she spoke about Zhan Qingyue.

"You can take this path to reach the back mountain", she pointed towards a narrow pathway which stretched to the top of mountain. Zhan Chen bowed towards her before walking towards the path she had pointed.

He rushed forward using the Ethereal cloud steps and soon vanished from Zhan Wu Li's visual range. It took him less than fifteen minutes to reach the back mountain.

'Where is she?', Zhan Chen spread his soul consciousness. The back mountain was quite vast and it was full of lush vegetation and flowers. Zhan Chen could tell that his ancestor, Zhan Wu Li had personally designed this place. He spread his soul consciousness further and finally found Zhan Qingyue.

She was quitely studying under a five leafed clover tree.

Her eyes were completely focused as she was reading from a spirit scroll. The mountain Breeze was flowing gently and her long silky hair was swaying in the air. She seemed to be completely sync with the surrounding as she sat under the Five leafed clover tree.

Zhan Chen didn't disturb her for a while. He had never seen his elder sister so focused before. If possible, he wouldn't have disturbed her but he had little time. He was sure that Zhan Qingyue would be sad if he didn't meet her despite being in the back mountain.

"Big sis", Zhan Chen called out softly to attract her attention. Zhan Qingyue who was extremely focused on studying, raised her head as soon as she heard the familiar voice. She looked ahead and found Zhan Chen walking from a distance.

"Little Chen", a pleasantly surprised expression appeared on her face after seeing Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen strode forward and took her slim figure into his arms.

"Big sis, how have you been?", he asked the beauty who was snuggling in his arms.

"Little Chen, we need to control ourselves. If ancestor sees us like this, it will be embarassing", Zhan Qingyue freed herself. She sized up Zhan Chen with her eyes and a gratifying smile appeared on her pretty face.

"Little Chen, you have become taller again", she commented.

"And big sis has become more prettier", Zhan Chen added.

"Glib", Zhan Qingyue 's pretty face became slightly redder.

"Let's sit down first. I want to hear what you have experienced in the Yellow stone city", she looked towards Zhan Chen.

Both of them sat down under the five leafed clover tree as Zhan Chen narrated his experience since they had parted. He downplayed the dangers he faced in the Yellow stone city but Zhan Qingyue could still imagine how dangerous it must have been. She had yet to learn the casualties of the Xuantian sect disciples in the White mist forest range. Otherwise, she would have pleaded Zhan Chen to not join the battle in the Sky dragon alliance.

Zhan Chen inquired about her experience after narrating his side. Compared to his experience full of ups and downs, her life was completely monotonous. "Little Chen, I have decided to learn a passive skill while my cultivation is stagnant. Ancestor has given me few options but after considering each options, I think it will be good if I learn more about formation techniques. Being an alchemist seems impressive but I don't have any affinity towards it. As for the formation techniques, it only require hard work. The more I learn, easier it will get", Zhan Qingyue spoke.

"Big sis, what about Spirit energy? Are you able to harness it?", Zhan Chen asked with a look of anticipation on his face. Sensing spirit energy was a difficult matter. One had to connect with heaven and earth to harness spirit energy. If Zhan Qingyue able to harness spirit energy, a new path would open up for her. Even if her essence energy cultivation stagnates, she could still embark on the journey of a formation matter.

"I think, it is doable. Just few days ago, I have managed to connect with heaven and earth while contemplating on a theory of formation", Zhan Qingyue replied.

"Good, try to harness spirit energy whenever you get opportunity", Zhan Chen spoke.

"I will", Zhan Qingyue replied. Zhan Chen cupped her face and looked towards her eyes. He gently leaned on and pressed his lips on her lips.

"Big sis, please have patience. I will definitely find a way to heal you in the future", Zhan Chen spoke. He bade farewell to her and walked out of the back mountain.
