Another Visit

Qian Ye lay in bed, moonlight streaming in through the window. She thought about how her Qian Gate had been established and wondered if she should bring Ruo Ling, Xiao Mei, Xiao Yu, and Wu Wei from the Outer Academy Outer Academy.

Indeed, it's time to bring them over.

Although none of them had yet met the qualifications to enter the Inner Academy, with him personally stepping forward, Old Su Qian dared not refuse him this favor.

Without hesitation, Qian Ye decided to go talk to Su Qian about it first thing tomorrow morning.

The next morning, Qian Ye got up early, intending to go find Su Qian. However, Elder Qing and Xiao Xun'er got up even earlier than him. As soon as he went out, Xiao Xun'er came to call him to have breakfast, so he followed her to the restaurant to have breakfast first.

The Qian Gate has just been established, and there aren't many members yet. Most of them are freshmen who entered the Inner Academy with us. Including Xiao Xun'er and a few others, there are about nineteen people.

Although there weren't many, at least there were some notable figures.

These people had witnessed Qian Ye's strength firsthand, so they didn't waver and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to their work at the Qian Gate.

Qian Ye also rewarded and punished them fairly. Disciples who made contributions were rewarded with Fire Energy and elixirs, which made them more willing to stay and work together to build Qian Gate.

Of course, Xiao Yan was not to be outdone and established his own Pan Gate.

Qian Ye didn't take Xiao Yan's Pan Gate seriously, nor was he in the mood for it.

As long as he doesn't provoke us, we don't plan to deal with him right now. ✊💚 ඏ☆

After finishing breakfast, Qian Ye, Xiao Xun'er, and the others went directly to Su Qian's residence and sat on the high steps at the entrance to wait.

Soon, a small head peeked out from inside the door, looked around a few times, and when she saw Qian Ye sitting on the threshold, her eyes lit up.

Then, with its short legs, it came up to Qian Ye: "Qian Ye, did you come to see me?"

She was none other than Zi Yan.

Ever since taking the pills that Qian Ye gave her, she has lost much of her interest in consuming medicinal herbs directly, and has instead become interested in the taste of the pills.

Qian Ye just smiled and patted her little head, "Yan Yan, go and call the Grand Elder out?"

"Is there any benefit?" Seeing that he came to see the old man instead of her, Zi Yan was a little disappointed and angrily stretched out her little hand to him.

~

Qian Ye sighed, impressed by the little girl's antics. He knew she was no pushover and that her current efforts would eventually have to be repaid. He took out a bottle of ordinary pills and placed it in her hand. "Are you done yet?"

"That's more like it." Zi Yan pursed her lips and smiled, eagerly taking the pill from his hand, opening the bottle cap and pouring it into her mouth.

Uh~

Qian Ye didn't know what to say to this little girl. At this rate of eating, no amount of pills would be enough for her to devour.

Being a dragon, it has a huge appetite; all it talks about is eating.

Zi Yan crunched the pills loudly as she slipped inside through the gate.

Soon, Su Qian and she arrived outside the door.

Zi Yan sat on the third step behind Qian Ye, picked up the pill bottle, and continued to pour it into her mouth, thinking to herself, "Qian Ye gave me this bottle of pills for free. I plan to eat it all up like a snack."

Qian Ye didn't bother with her. It was just a bottle of ordinary pills; it wouldn't have any effect on her. He had only given it to her as a snack anyway.

He smiled but didn't say anything more.

Su Qian walked over to Qian Ye and sat down, glancing back at Zi Yan: "Qian Ye, did you give her this pill?"

"Elder, this little girl doesn't treat pills like pills, she eats them like snacks," Qian Ye said with a smile.

~

Su Qian sighed, not wanting to talk about her anymore. It was already like this, there was no point in saying more. She was the one who took her in, so she'd just treat her like a glutton. As long as she didn't cause trouble, she'd let her be. "You should be able to tell that she's different from the other female students, right?"

"It's definitely different. There are very few people who can eat pills like snacks and have the physique to withstand the backlash from pill poisoning," Qian Ye said truthfully.

I probably know more about Zi Yan than he does.

"I found Zi Yan when I was out in the Magical Beast Forest. She was wandering alone in the forest, without parents or anyone to rely on. When I asked her, she said she was all alone and didn't know where her family was. My heart softened, so I took her back to the Inner Academy."

"However, her true form is not human, but a magical beast. She only transformed into a human after accidentally eating Body Transformation Grass. In reality, she is over a thousand years old, but when she transformed, her cultivation level was only at the Dou Wang level, so she never grew up, and her body has remained in the form of a little girl."

"Well... in order to grow up and not stay in a little girl's body forever, she desperately searched for and ate medicinal herbs, hoping to absorb enough energy to grow up quickly. Actually, she didn't like eating medicinal herbs; she just wanted to grow up faster."

Qian Ye smiled slightly after hearing Su Qian's words, "I understand, I understand. Everyone has a love of beauty. Who wants to stay young forever and be treated like a child?"

Su Qian nodded. "However, it's not impossible for her to grow up, but she must break through to the Dou Huang level. But breaking through to Dou Huang is not something that can be done overnight."

"That's true, but it's obvious that the Grand Elder dotes on her a lot, otherwise he wouldn't let her do whatever she wants in the academy, right?"

"Well, I took her in, so naturally I have to take responsibility for her and treat her like my own child. As long as she doesn't do anything outrageous, I'll usually turn a blind eye."

"Besides, she's a well-behaved child. As long as others don't bother her, she won't cause trouble for them. Plus, she's a very righteous girl, and that's enough."

Qian Ye nodded, then looked back at Zi Yan, their eyes meeting. She noticed something different in Ziyan's gaze.

Suddenly remembering the purpose of her visit to Su Qian, she stopped talking about Zi Yan and said, "By the way, Elder, I actually have something serious to discuss with you today."

"Oh?" Su Qian looked at him curiously. "What serious matter?"

Even the Grand Elder had to give Qian Ye some respect for his strength.

I thought to myself that as long as it was within my power, I would try my best to fulfill his request.

After all, this was the first time he had ever seen an alchemist who could produce dozens of seventh-grade Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill in person, and he had even taken one of them from him. As the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to him, and he who takes another's gift is bound to him," which is not without reason.

Qian Ye: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I've already established my own sect in the Inner Academy, the Qian Gate, and I'd like to recruit more disciples. I happen to have made some good friends in the Outer Academy, and I'd like to transfer them to the Inner Academy Outer Academy. What do you think?"

I see.

Su Qian pondered for a moment. Although this would break the academy's rules, a genius like Qian Ye was a Hundred-Year talent. For his sake, breaking the rules was understandable. "It's not that it's impossible, but it would disrupt the original balance, so you must give me a reasonable explanation."
