Discussion

Upon seeing Lin Ming appear, Ya Fei and Zi Yan, who had been waiting for a long time, were the first to run over.

Upon seeing the two women arrive, Lin Ming smiled at them, then clasped his hands in greeting to Elder Hai and the other Clan Leader, saying, "Thank you for your Protector, elders!"

"Haha, Lin Ming, you little rascal! We wish we could have Protector like you who helps you advance every day!" Looking at Grandpa Liu, who had reached the Peak Dou Emperor in just over ten years from Dou Qi, and who had never married and treated Lin Ming like his own grandson, he immediately burst into laughter upon sensing Lin Ming's aura.

As Grandpa Liu laughed, everyone burst into laughter as well.

At night, five figures sat in the main hall of the Mittel Family. These five were none other than Elder Hai, Great Elder Teng Shan, Grandpa Liu, Master Toso, and Lin Ming.

Inside the main hall, Great Elder Teng Shan spoke up, "Lin Ming, the Fama, the Jia Ma Royal Family, and several other Great Family have just sent letters, inquiring about our requirements regarding the location for dealing with the Misty Cloud Sect. They've hinted that they'd like to see if it can be held at the Alchemist Guild."

At this moment, Great Elder Teng Shan felt a surge of pride as he spoke.

It's important to understand that in the past, the major powers were constantly engaged in open and covert struggles, especially the Alchemist Guild and the Jia Ma Royal Family. Because the Alchemist Guild gathered the vast majority of Alchemist in the entire empire, it didn't treat the major powers very well. As for the Jia Ma Royal Family, with Elder Hai's return, it was subtly hinting at a warning to the Mittel Family.

However, now that Lin Ming of his family has risen to prominence, the Jia Ma Royal Family and the Alchemist Guild have both lowered their stances. How could this not make Tengshan, the Great Elder of the Mittel Family, feel proud?

As Great Elder Teng Shan finished speaking, Master Toso frowned slightly and said, "It seems that the Royal Family, the Alchemist Guild, and the Great Family all discussed it beforehand, which is why they all sent letters at roughly the same time."

After listening to Great Elder Teng Shan and Master Toso's words, Lin Ming calmly said, "Although the Misty Cloud Sect's attempt to force an alliance with Yun Shan back then ultimately failed due to subsequent reasons, it's normal for them to be more cautious after experiencing that incident. As for the Alchemist Guild, as a relatively neutral organization with Alchemist from every family joining it, choosing this location is quite appropriate."

After analyzing the situation, Lin Ming continued, "I don't have any requirements regarding the location. Elder Hai, do you need to make any requests? If so, just pass on the message. If not, then let's just go with what they said about the Alchemist Guild. After all, regardless of their plans, I don't think they can cause any trouble."

Looking at Lin Ming, a powerful Dou Zong who had severely injured them, the group had complete confidence in Lin Ming words. Therefore, Elder Hai immediately decided, "Tengshan, reply to them later. Tell them we agree to join the Alchemist Guild!"

Upon hearing Elder Hai's words, Great Elder Teng Shan immediately nodded in agreement, and the matter was thus settled.

After this matter was settled, Lin Ming looked at Elder Hai, "Elder Hai, your cultivation has now reached the peak of the Six-Star Dou Emperor, right?"

Upon hearing Lin Ming's words, Elder Hai nodded without any hesitation, saying, "Yes! He has already reached the peak of the Six-Star Dou Emperor."

After his seal was broken and he regained his Dou Emperor cultivation, and then under the influence of the Reviving Spirit Purple Pill refined by Lin Ming, Elder Hai's cultivation truly returned to its previous peak state of Five-Star Dou Emperor. After these three years of cultivation, Elder Hai has also improved by more than one star, reaching the peak of Six-Star Dou Emperor.

Having received Elder Hai's reply, Lin Ming moved his mind, and a Jade Bottle instantly appeared in his hand.

With the appearance of the Jade Bottle, a captivating fragrance instantly filled the hall. Under this exotic aroma, everyone's spirits were instantly lifted.

"This Medicinal Fragrance... it's Tier 6 Medicinal Pill!" As the Medicinal Fragrance wafted over him, Master Toso, the highest-ranking alchemist in the family besides Lin Ming, immediately stood up in surprise.

As Tier 5 Alchemist himself, he was extremely familiar with the situation of pills 6th Grade. Moreover, because of his status as Tier 5 Alchemist, he had even witnessed the Tier 6 Medicinal Pill refined by Pill King Gu He. However, Gu He's Tier 6 Medicinal Pill did not possess the alluring Medicinal Fragrance that Lin Ming was now presenting. Therefore, at this moment, Master Toso disregarded his image and came to Lin Ming's side, his eyes revealing anticipation.

Seeing Master Toso's state, Lin Ming could only laugh and cry as he handed the Jade Bottle to him.

Upon receiving the Jade Bottle, Master Toso immediately and impatiently pulled out the stopper. Then, tilting the bottle, the slowly rolling pill made Master Toso's eyes widen in surprise.

It was the size of a longan, perfectly round, and entirely purple-gold in color. With a few dragon-like patterns on its rounded body, it further highlighted its extraordinary nature.

"This... this... this is Tier 6 Peak -Imperial Pill! And the patterns on it are Pill Pattern that only form when its medicinal effects are used to the extreme! Hahaha, an Imperial Pill with Pill Pattern! Imperial Pill with Pill Pattern!" At this moment, Master Toso held the pill in his hands and became like a madman.

After several breaths, Master Toso was in a frenzy, suddenly stopped. Then, his eyes, burning with fervor, turned to Lin Ming, and he gasped, "Quick... Lin Ming! Tell me, did you refine this pill?"

Seeing the expectant look in Master Toso's eyes, Lin Ming could only smile helplessly and then nod.

"Hahaha! Good! Good! Gu He, I may not be able to surpass you, but the juniors I have trained have surpassed you! Hahaha!" Upon receiving Lin Ming's reply, Master Toso laughed again.

As Master Toso finished speaking, the group of Elder Hai and the others, who had previously thought it was beneath his dignity to lose his virginity at his age, disregarded all sense of propriety and rushed to Master Toso's side, looking at the pills in his hand.

It's important to know that Pill King Gu He, is quite famous even in the Northwest region, and the Jia Ma Empire is renowned for its pinnacle alchemy skills. Yet now, Toso claims that Lin Ming has surpassed Gu He. In a sense, this statement is even more astonishing than Lin Ming possessing the combat strength of Dou Zong.

So at this moment, those old guys didn't care about anything else. Forget about their status; the important thing was to get to the point.
