Yuan Yi
After a long while, several footsteps suddenly approached the Treasure Appraisal Room. Lin Qing's fingers stopped instantly. He opened his eyes and looked at the door that had been pushed open. There, the old man who had been there led in a burly man in black with a gloomy face like an eagle and some white hair and beard, and a woman in a red palace robe.
The woman was quite beautiful, with a curvaceous figure that was perfectly accentuated by her palace robes, exuding a captivating charm unique to mature women. But what was most striking were her watery eyes, which seemed to always hold a hint of teasing, and her painted eyebrows, like crescent moons, radiating a touch of allure.
What's important isn't this woman's appearance, but her cultivation level, which has actually reached the Nine-Star Dou Emperor. Such beauty and strength should make her a formidable figure in the Black-Corner Region. However, Lin Qing doesn't know which powerful figure she is.
In the chaotic Black-Corner Region, those who survive are all people with their own unique skills, especially beautiful women, who are more dangerous than men.
Therefore, Lin Qing felt a sense of wariness and apprehension towards this woman.
The man's cultivation level was only One-Star Dou Emperor, so it must be Yuan Yi.
"Um?!"
Lin Qing looked behind the two with slight surprise.
Behind the three of them was an elderly man with white hair dressed in an ancient robe. The old man looked ordinary, but Lin Qing could tell from his soul perception that he was also an Alchemist, and his rank was probably already at the fifth grade.
Seemingly noticing Lin Qing's gaze, the old man also looked directly at Lin Qing, and their eyes met instantly.
Looking at Lin Qing's youthful appearance under the black robe, he felt as if the boy didn't exist, yet the boy was indeed sitting in the chair. Then he felt as if the boy's soul was a vast ocean. Looking at the four figures standing behind the boy, the old man couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation of surprise.
"What's wrong, Elder Yan?" The woman in palace attire was also taken aback upon hearing the old man's surprised exclamation and asked in confusion.
"It's nothing!" The old man surnamed Yan's eyes flickered slightly, then he shook his head slightly.
"Hehe! I am Yuan Yi, the sect leader of the Eight Sects Gate. This young master must be the owner of the Imperial Extreme Pill and the Dou Spirit Pill, right? May I ask your name?" The sinister-looking man looked at Lin Qing with a smile on his face.
But behind that smile lay a faint hint of murderous intent and a probing intent.
"Hmph!" ×3
Sensing the killing intent, Cai Cailin, Lion, and Lin Qi instantly unleashed three terrifying auras, pressing down on the group opposite Lin Qing.
A look of horror flashed across Yuan Yi and the others' eyes: 'Two Dou Emperor, one Dou Zong! And the other is at least Dou Wang!'
"Ahem!" Lin Qing coughed, and the three of them then calmed down.
"My name is Zhang San!" Lin Qing nodded indifferently, as if he didn't care about what had just happened, and then asked softly, "Presumably Master Yuan has brought someone who can appraise Medicinal Pill with him?"
"Hehe, of course!" After saying that, Yuan Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but was also somewhat unwilling. He then introduced Lin Qing, "Young Master Zhang, this is Master Yao and Master Yan from Thousand Medicine Workshop. Because of the auction, Master Yan will be in charge of the appraisal of the Medicinal Pill this time!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qing was slightly surprised!
Jiang Taigong fished, and those who were willing took the bait!
He took out the Medicinal Pill, thinking that whether the Eight Sects Gate Master wanted to ambush him or befriend him, he would have to come to see him, and in that case, he could subdue his subordinates.
He never expected that the other party would come looking for him so soon after he took out the Medicinal Pill, and even more unexpectedly, the Master Yao and Thousand Medicine Workshop Fifth-Grade Alchemist were also with him.
The Alchemist picked up the Jade Bottle on the table and carefully poured out one of the perfectly round, emerald-green Medicinal Pill.
His gaze cautiously swept over the Medicinal Pill, and a hint of surprise gradually appeared in Elder Yan's eyes. After a moment, that surprise turned into solemnity.
"Elder Yan, how is it?" Yuan Yi asked curiously, seeing Elder Yan's appearance.
"No problem!" Elder Yan took a deep breath, his tone unusually enthusiastic. "This is indeed Dou Spirit Pill."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi and Master Yao exchanged a glance, trusting in Elder Yan's judgment.
They hadn't expected that the young man was indeed a high-level Alchemist, and instantly both sides' gazes turned wary.
'We can't let him/her win over this Alchemist!'
"Elder Yan, please take another look at the Imperial Extreme Pill!" Yuan Yi said excitedly.
Upon hearing this, the old man surnamed Yan put away the Dou Spirit Pill and took out the Imperial Extreme Pill, examining it carefully. His initially somewhat fanatical gaze gradually became more and more fervent.
"Imperial Extreme Pill! Top-grade Imperial Extreme Pill!"
The old man surnamed Yan's tone became somewhat agitated, and the look of shock in Yuan Yi and the other man's eyes as they looked at Lin Qing intensified.
"Hehe! In that case, Master Yuan, shall we arrange to auction these two Medicinal Pills?"
Lin Qing asked in a calm tone.
"Of course! Of course! Young Master Zhang, I would also like to have a chat with you. Would you do Young Master Zhang the honor?" Yuan Yi said with a smile.
"Master Yuan, this is probably not the place to chat!"
Master Yao to the side, said softly that she also wanted to recruit Lin Qing. Even if she couldn't recruit him, she couldn't let the Eight Sects Gate recruit him, otherwise, it would become another Black Emperor Sect.
"Yes! Master Yao is right! Young master is a guest, and our Eight Sects Gate should do our best to be a good host."
Yuan Yi chuckled.
"Then lead the way!"
Lin Qing nodded, he had no objection to it, and then he saw the old man surnamed Yan standing to the side.
"Let's have this Master Yao too! Perfect timing, I'd like to make a few friends in the Black-Corner Region!"
He remembered that Thousand Medicine Workshop would occasionally hold a Pill Exchange Gathering! And some of the Medicinal Herb for Seventh-Grade Pill pills were even there!
"Everyone, please!"
Yuan Yi gestured for Lin Qing to follow, and Lin Qing readily agreed to let Yuan Yi lead the way.
In the Dou Qi Continent, strength and background ultimately prevail, and he now deserves Yuan Yi's respect.
After they left, the old man who had been in charge of the appraisal picked up two Medicinal Pill Jade Bottle containing pills, slapped his palm on a spot on the table, and the wall of the Secret Chamber slowly opened, revealing a dark hole. The old man then walked in with the Medicinal Pill.
Auction House, Reception Hall.
After entering the Reception Hall, the maid served tea to the Reception Hall group and then left, leaving Lin Qing and his companions, along with Yuan Yi and his group.
Yuan Yi personally handed the tea to Lin Qing, who couldn't refuse, but he wouldn't drink it either, since no one knew if it was laced with drugs. After holding the teacup in his hands for a while, he put it back on the coffee table.
"May I ask where Young Master Zhang is from? Are you interested in staying in the Black-Corner Region?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qing understood. His strength and alchemy skills made him a worthwhile asset to recruit in any faction within the Black-Corner Region.
