Chapter 381: A Tempting Offer

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Duan Tianming was silent for a long time before he spoke again, “I hope that you can report to the master that I have come under the orders of the Hall Master to extend a cordial invitation.”

He knew that the young man in front of him was most likely the murderer who had killed his son. However, he could only choose to remain indifferent. This was because they had already figured out the whereabouts of Gu Xi and the others over the past few days and everything that they had done in Jingyang City. He knew that these people must have a relationship with that alchemy master. Moreover, according to the orders of the main hall, the branch hall of Jingyang City must not become enemies with them, even if they had a deep-seated blood feud with them!

Compared to a person who was at least an eighth-grade alchemist grandmaster, Duan Hao’s life was insignificant. Even if Duan Tianming wanted to immediately dismember Gu Xi in front of him to take revenge for killing his son, due to the orders of the main hall, he had no choice but to swallow his anger and even treat him politely.

“Since even the Hall of Flowing Light has extended such a cordial invitation, it would seem that I don’t know what’s good for me if I don’t make a trip there.” Gu Xi smiled inexplicably and turned to look at Little Nine and Song Qingluan. He said softly, “Qingluan, stay here. Little Nine, come with me.”

Song Qingluan nodded her head lightly and didn’t have any objections. This was because she knew that although this trip could not be considered extremely dangerous, there would inevitably be conflicts. If she insisted on going along, she would only be a burden.

“I will go as well.” At this moment, Qing Zhu appeared out of nowhere.

Gu Xi thought for a moment and immediately nodded his head in agreement.

According to his original plan, he had already expected that he would definitely not be able to escape the detection of the Hall of Flowing Light after creating such a huge commotion here. Moreover, with his pill refinement skill, he would definitely be favored by the Hall of Flowing Light. In this way, the Hall of Flowing Light would definitely send someone to invite him to their sect. He would be able to easily destroy the branch hall of the Hall of Flowing Light in Jingyang City.

However, he did not expect that the person who sent the invitation was not from the branch hall of the Hall of Flowing Light in Jingyang City. Instead, it was from the main hall of the Hall of Flowing Light.

However, this saved him some effort. After all, he had countless enemies in the Eastern Continent. Even though he had the help of the Great Saint, Yun Zhiyi, when he returned this time around, it would still be a little difficult for him to fight with such a large number of people. He might as well take them down one by one.

This was also the main reason why Gu Xi had agreed to go to the Hall of Flowing Light.

Now, every time he destroyed a power, the pressure on him when he returned to the Supreme Purity Sect would be reduced by a little!

Looking at Gu Xi and the others who had already made their decision, Duan Tianming frowned.

The person he wanted to invite to the Hall of Flowing Light this time was the grandmaster of alchemy, not the handsome man and woman in front of him. If he brought these people back to the main hall, he would most likely be punished by the Hall Master.

“Looks like Branch Hall Master Duan doesn’t really welcome us.” Gu Xi keenly noticed the change in Duan Tianming’s expression and smiled.

Duan Tianming slowly shook his head and explained, “That’s not the case. It would be great if the few of you could come to our Hall of Flowing Light, but if that grandmaster can accompany us…”

“What do you think a grandmaster is, Hall Master Duan?” Gu Xi pointed at himself and continued to ask, “Don’t I look like one?”

Duan Tianming’s expression became strange when he heard this, and he could not help but feel a little embarrassed and angry.

In his opinion, Gu Xi was clearly making fun of him. How could a grandmaster alchemist who could refine an eighth-grade medicinal pill be someone who looked to be in his twenties?

“I’m just joking. My Master is currently recovering and I’m afraid that he won’t be able to leave this place for the time being. I’ll go to your sect on his behalf. If the conditions are good, I’ll definitely recommend my Master to pay a visit to your sect when I return.”

Gu Xi spoke again before Duan Tianming could speak.

He was not in a hurry to say that he was that grandmaster. Instead, he claimed that he was that grandmaster’s disciple so that he could gain the Hall of Flowing Light’s trust.

Hearing this, Duan Tianming’s strange expression disappeared as expected. Without saying anything else, he nodded and agreed to this matter. The Master could not be disturbed when he recovered. He thought that he would not be punished if he brought his disciples back to the Hall of Flowing Light first.

In his opinion, as long as he treated these ‘disciples’ well, he would have them come back and say a few good words in front of the Master. Then, this matter would most likely be half-done.

With the reputation of the Hall of Flowing Light on the continent, although it could not be called the first place, it was not difficult to recruit an eighth-grade alchemist.

Just like that, both sides left Jingyang City with their own worries. Fortunately, the main hall of the Hall of Flowing Light was not very far from Jingyang City. In less than half a day, the group of people successfully arrived at the location of the main hall of the Hall of Flowing Light.

The main hall of the Hall of Flowing Light.

Gu Xi and the others stood side by side in front of the huge sect, looking at the huge object in front of them with surprise in their eyes. This Hall of Flowing Light was indeed worthy of its name. As far as the eye could see, everything was shining with golden light under the sun. Whether it was the buildings or the wind chimes hanging under the eaves of the door, the surface of the hall was covered with a layer of gilded gold.

Resplendent and lavish. These words were not an exaggeration to describe the Hall of Flowing Light.

Looking at the astonished expressions of Gu Xi and the others, Duan Tianming seemed to be very pleased. He hurriedly said, “Although our Hall of Flowing Light is not one of the best in terms of overall strength on the continent, when it comes to financial resources, I’m afraid that no one other than the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is a match for it. If your Master can join our Hall of Flowing Light at that time, you don’t have to worry about all the materials needed to refine pills in the future. All the things will be prepared by the sect.”

Hearing this, Gu Xi’s brows raised. This condition… Even he was slightly moved when he heard it.

He did not have to worry about anything… In other words, after joining the Hall of Flowing Light, he only needed to steadily refine pills. He did not have to worry about anything else.

This also meant that he no longer had to go through all the trouble of gathering materials to refine some kind of pill!

“The conditions aren’t bad. I think my Master will like it very much.” Gu Xi smiled faintly and took the lead in striding into the Hall of Flowing Light.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Duan Tianming’s face as well. He hurriedly followed up and started to introduce the other conditions to Gu Xi and the other two people in a lively manner.

According to what he said, as long as that Master was able to join their Hall of Flowing Light, not only did he not need to worry about the materials required for refining pills, all the treasured medicinal pill recipes in their Hall of Flowing Light over the years would be gradually opened up to them. Not only that, Duan Tianming had also made it clear that as long as the Master was willing to come, his status would naturally be top-notch, with all the clothes, food, shelter, and beautiful women accompanying him. Even the resources of the entire Hall of Flowing Light would be given to the few of them.
