1307 Grand Appearance Altering Pill

"What is your reason for refusing? Do you know who I am?" Pill Grandmaster Zhao asked him after a moment of silence.

Yuan shook his head, "I don't, but judging by how everyone reacted to your presence, I'm willing to bet that you're someone influential. As for my reason for refusing to be your disciple, I just don't have the time right now."

And he continued, "To be honest, I came here on a whim and don't have any intention to learn alchemy seriously for now."

"On a whim…?" Ma Qingyun nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood after hearing such words.

How can someone like that have so much talent?

'The heavens are unjust…' she sighed inwardly.

Pill Grandmaster Zhao frowned and said, "How can you say such a thing when you have tremendous talents for alchemy? Don't be foolish and waste something that countless would be willing to kill to have!"

"Even if I possess the talent for it, there's currently no compelling reason pushing me to learn alchemy immediately. Moreover, it appears to demand a substantial investment of time," Yuan shrugged nonchalantly.

"No reason?!" exclaimed the Pill Grandmaster Zhao. "How can you, as a cultivator, say such a thing? Do you comprehend how many cultivators yearn to master alchemy but lack the innate talent? Pills constitute an indispensable facet of a cultivator's journey; possessing such a skill would undeniably be advantageous."

"Consider finding yourself stranded in the wilderness without any pills. A cultivator versed in alchemy can concoct the needed pill on the spot, whereas one devoid of such abilities would be left to struggle and lament the heavens for not bestowing upon them such talents!"

"Do you know why most cultivators invariably travel with an Alchemist by their side during exploration? It ensures they never have to worry about depleting their pill supply, and the presence of an Alchemist substantially enhances one's chances of survival!"

"Although learning alchemy will definitely demand a considerable investment of time, the benefits undoubtedly outweigh the cons and make it a worthwhile pursuit!"

After hearing Pill Grandmaster Zhao's lecture on the importance of alchemy, Yuan could not refute the advantage of having the ability to concoct pills at will. However, that didn't change the fact that he did not have the time to learn alchemy.

'Since most people bring an alchemist with them, I can simply do the same in the future if I really need to.' Yuan thought of Wang Xiuying.

"I understand where you are coming from, but it doesn't change the fact that I currently have no time for alchemy. I will consider learning alchemy again once I lessen some food off my plate." Yuan said as he retrieved his cauldron.

"You can keep that pill. I will be taking my leave now. Thank you for the class." Yuan said to Pill Grandmaster Zhao before walking towards the exit.

"..."

Pill Grandmaster Zhao could only silently shake her head as she watched Yuan leave the room.

"Are you really going to let him leave?" Ma Qingyun suddenly asked.

"What do you want me to do? Beg him to stay? He made a decision, and I will respect it. If he's really as talented as I think he is, I doubt starting a little later will do much to hinder him." Pill Grandmaster Zhao shrugged.

And she continued, "And to be completely honest with you, I'm not confident that I have the capability to teach a monster like him. Hopefully, he will encounter someone more qualified in the future."

Ma Qingyun swallowed nervously. She couldn't fathom what Pill Grandmaster Zhao was thinking or feeling for her to act so humbly.

After leaving the Majestic Pill Pavilion, Yuan made his way back to Meixiu and the others.

"Sorry, it took so long. I took a detour."

"Are we going to the Stairway to Heaven now?" Chu Liuxiang asked.

He shook his head and said, "No, there's one last thing I have to do. The Ten Great Families—I am going to put an end to their nonsense before it gets too crazy. It won't take too long."

"How do you plan on doing that?" Meixiu asked.

Yuan proceeded to tell them about his participation in the recruitment.

Chu Liuxiang chuckled after learning of it, "Seriously? I can already imagine their faces when you show up."

"Do you need our help?" Li Jinxi asked.

"No, I just need Xiao Hua to come with me to keep up with the appearances, and I plan on dealing with them alone."

Yuan looked at Xiao Hua and explained, "A group of people have been recruiting Exiles like you, and they plan on ambushing us because of what happened not long ago."

Xiao Hua quickly recalled her most recent fight and nodded, "Okay."

Yuan retrieved one of the Grand Appearance Altering Pill and handed it to her, "We'll need to disguise ourselves. Can you change your facial features and make yourself taller?"

Xiao Hua accepted the pill and proceeded to stare at it with a pondering expression on her face, wondering what she should make herself look like.

"Ah, don't consume it now. Let's do it when we are close to our destination." Yuan quickly said when he thought she was going to swallow it there and then.

Xiao Hua nodded.

"Then I'll be off now. I'll see you guys later."

Yuan left with Xiao Hua shortly after, quickly making their way to the Enchanted Bamboo Forest.

About two hours later, they arrived at their destination.

Yuan consumed the Grand Appearance Altering Pill shortly after arriving, transforming his face to look like a random stranger's face—someone he passed by on the streets and happened to remember.

Xiao Hua followed him and swallowed the pill.

A moment later, her petite body started growing taller and taller until she was even taller than Yuan by an inch, and her face became almost unrecognizable to Yuan.

'Although she looks completely different at a glance, if I look closely, she somewhat resembles Xiao Hua after her transformation…'

Yuan then asked out of curiosity, "Xiao Hua, that appearance… is she someone you know? Or did you make it up?"

Xiao Hua nodded and calmly responded, "She's my elder sister."

"Eh?" Yuan's eyes widened at her unexpected words.
