Chapter 419: The Parcel You Sent Contains Two Jade Pills?

Chapter 419: The Parcel You Sent Contains Two Jade Pills?

Upon his arrival at the Tahe Sect, Su Chen was directly escorted to the side hall.

The treatment he received was quite decent, as various exquisite snacks were prepared for him.

Jiang Zhu seemed rather busy and didn't have much time to chat with Su Chen.

After bringing Su Chen to the side hall, he immediately left, as he had other matters to attend to.

He had received a task from the upper echelons of the Tahe Sect to fetch Su Chen.

Now that Su Chen was here, he naturally had to report back.

On his way there, Jiang Zhu practiced various speeches and organized his words.

He had previously received news from his brother.

Today, the Sect Master, Chai Yongshan, was also present.

Jiang Zhu and the other ordinary elders rarely had opportunities to impress their own Sect Master.

With this chance, he naturally wanted to seize it.

The unique structure of the Tahe Sect meant that many elders held the title in name only, without any real authority.

They were even inferior to the core hall masters.

To rise in status, one must gain the recognition of the Sect Master himself.

Jiang Zhu hurried towards the side hall.

Despite the short distance, he felt like he had walked for ages.

Upon reaching the side hall, he was promptly invited inside.

At that moment, the hallmasters of the Jia, Yi, and Bing Alchemy Workshops were inside, giving their reports.

After entering, Jiang Zhu could only listen and observe from the side.

It wasn't his turn to speak yet.

"After receiving the news, Elder Xiang has already departed for Zhuming Palace," said Yan You, the hallmaster of the Bing Alchemy Workshop.

"According to Elder Xiang, he doesn't have a deep understanding of this matter.

To verify the situation, we'll have to wait for the elders of Zhuming Palace to come."

The hallmasters of the three workshops had naturally come to report on the recent situation.

Now that the Zhuming Palace's overseer had returned, their escort duty was coming to an end.

"Zhuming Palace takes this matter very seriously. I wonder how they'll react when they realize it's a misunderstanding," said Yan You, a hint of concern on his face.

Although Zhuming Palace had indeed misunderstood the situation, it's understandable that they'd feel resentful after investing so much time and effort, only to find out it was a mistake.

The hallmasters of the Jia and Yi workshops, standing by, wore expressions of complaint as they looked at Chai Yongshan.

"Sect Master, if you could delay for a day or two, we'd surely solve our difficulties.

With the current situation, we're truly in a bind."

Hearing the hallmasters' complaints, Chai Yongshan smiled.

"Hallmasters, you should be content.

First, the elders of Zhuming Palace guided you, and now their overseer is instructing you.

Such good fortune is rarely seen in other sects for centuries.

If not for this misunderstanding, you wouldn't have such luck.

Since Zhuming Palace treats us with sincerity, we shouldn't deceive them.

Su Xing's disciple has returned, so we should be truthful."

The hallmasters couldn't argue, as they had indeed received significant benefits.

They couldn't ask for further guidance and risk the Tahe Sect's safety and Zhuming Palace's goodwill.

Seeing the hallmasters' silence, Chai Yongshan turned his gaze to Jiang Zhu.

"Elder Jiang, has Su Xing's disciple arrived at the sect?"

Hearing the Sect Master's inquiry, Jiang Zhu nodded eagerly.

"Su Xing is waiting in the side hall, awaiting your instructions."

Jiang Zhu had prepared many words of flattery, but Chai Yongshan didn't give him the chance.

After hearing this, Chai Yongshan's gaze shifted to the three hallmasters.

"Hallmasters, would you like to go and meet this disciple? You should know that this good fortune is all thanks to him.

Go and at least thank him."

Chai Yongshan's smile was both sincere and playful.

Whether they went or not didn't matter much.

These hallmasters were already busy.

After some hesitation, Yan You, the hallmaster of the Bing Alchemy Workshop, spoke up.

"Sect Master, you can take the elders there. We'll pass.

I remember this Su Xing. I didn't realize it earlier.

He's the disciple Elder Wang brought to me.

This disciple has no talent and little understanding of the Way of Pills.

He wanted to train in our workshop, but I refused.

He must have written to Zhuming Palace, hoping for luck, and they took him in."

These disciples, there's no point in going to see them."

Everyone was stunned by Yan You's words.

Apparently, there was such a history.

On his side, the other two Pharmacy Hall Masters also joined the conversation.

"Sect Master, at most, tomorrow, the Zhu Ming Palace will definitely have an Elder or higher come.

We should also prepare, then, we'll go to receive them, and it'll be more convenient."

Regarding the Zhu Ming Palace, a Pharmacy Hall Master going there can also has more to say.

This is indeed the case.

These several Hall Masters, when the Zhu Ming Palace's high-level comes, they must accompany them.

Chai Yongshan nodded, also agreeing with this.

On the other side, he heard what Yan You said.

The idea of going to see Su Chen was dismissed.

Before, he still wanted to go and see what the reason was.

With this misunderstanding, the Zhu Ming Palace would be dragged in."

Now it seems that Yan You has solved the doubts in his heart.

"The three Pharmacy Hall Masters, go and take care of things.

Then, the Great Elder and the others will go and see that disciple."

Then, tell the disciple that when facing the Zhu Ming Palace people, let him remember what needs to be paid attention to.

The attitude must be better, the Zhu Ming Palace people's mood is already bad.

If he says something inappropriate, that's a troublesome matter."

Upon hearing this, the several Elders all nodded.

From this point on, the Tahe Sect still has many things to discuss with the Zhu Ming Palace.

Can't afford to ruin the relationship, it'll be bad if it gets messed up.

A group of people, led by the Great Elder, left the side hall.

Along the way, they discussed.

Discussing Su Chen's situation, seeing what needs to be vigilant and paid attention to.

Jiang Zhu also followed, walking behind.

This opportunity, he didn't seem to have gained much attention.

Even the prepared words, weren't fully said.

At this moment, Su Chen calmly waited.

From the current situation, it doesn't seem like the Tahe Sect people are making things difficult for him.

This time, they also didn't think they should be punished.

Later, they'll cooperate and explain things clearly to the Zhu Ming Palace.

In Su Chen's heart, there were also some questions.

If possible, later, he also wanted to ask about the Jade Essence Alchemy.

Why is this Jade Essence Alchemy, it seems like in their Zhu Ming Palace, it didn't receive enough attention?

At the end of midnight, the executive sent by the Zhu Ming Palace to the Tahe Sect, had already returned to their sect.

And on this side, the Zhu Ming Palace's Palace Master, along with the Elders, were all at the Pharmacy Hall.

At this moment, these high-level members, were still researching that Jade Essence Alchemy.

Although it had been over ten hours, these Zhu Ming Palace high-level members were still incredibly diligent.

Through this Jade Essence Alchemy, they had already gained some insights.

But this insight, was quite shallow.

Looking at the entire Jin Kingdom, these Palace Masters and Elders, which one wasn't an expert Pharmacy Master?

The essence of Jade Essence Alchemy is to thoroughly eliminate impurities.

But no matter how they tried, their understanding didn't reach the effect of these two pills.

Even if they carefully observed the pill's texture, inferring the refining method within.

Still no good, and the gap was huge.

However, compared to the Liuli Pavilion and Qilou, these two forces' refined Jade Essence Alchemy, there was some similarity.

From this, it can be seen that in the Jin Kingdom, these two forces have some achievements in Jade Essence Alchemy.

Actually, their understanding was also quite shallow.

The originally complete Jade Essence Alchemy, at this moment, had already been thoroughly researched.

Through this pill, Palace Master Yao Wen was actually satisfied with this harvest.

If he could deepen this understanding a bit more, the Zhu Ming Palace could catch up to Qilou and Liuli Pavilion.

Becoming the Jin Kingdom's third force to master the Jade Essence Alchemy technique.

If one were to say it more boldly, the Zhu Ming Palace had the potential to become the Jin Kingdom's top Pharmacy force.

Qilou and Liuli Pavilion were small.

Relying on the Jade Essence Alchemy technique, they stood out.

Now, the Zhu Ming Palace, this sect bigger than them,

Also mastered the Jade Essence Alchemy technique.

In terms of influence, the Zhu Ming Palace would definitely take a huge step forward.

This harvest was enough to excite the Zhu Ming Palace.

But as the Palace Master, Yao Wen still had some dissatisfaction.

If he could find out who sent the Jade Essence Alchemy.

Without the need for that high-level person's guidance, just a slight nudge would be enough.

The Jade Essence Alchemy sent by Su Chen, the pill's skin had a very obvious jade-like texture.

Yao Wen didn't need such divine skills.

He only needed for most of the pill to have the jade-like texture, and he'd be completely satisfied.

Thinking that even now, he couldn't figure out who sent the pill, Yao Wen was a bit angry these days.

He even impulsively expressed that from now on, all letters must be personally reviewed.

The elders beside him persuaded him, and he finally decided to let the matter go.

As the Palace Master, he had no idea of the sheer volume of letters he would have to deal with, and how terrifying it would be.

He had to read every single letter, and as the Palace Master, he would have to dedicate a good portion of his day to this task.

Outside the Alchemy Workshop, the overseer sent from Tahe Sect was already waiting.

Inside, they were researching Jade Essence Pills, and he didn't have the qualifications to enter and take a look.

Upon hearing that Su Chen had returned to Tahe Sect, Palace Master Yao Wen, accompanied by two elders, emerged from within.

He left a few people to continue their research in the workshop.

As the Palace Master, Yao Wen, along with the two elders, decided to go and see for themselves.

In his heart, Yao Wen was also uncertain.

But at the moment, they only had this one lead, and the other clues were even more vague.

During the journey, the overseer who had returned from Tahe Sect informed his Palace Master and the elders about the news he had heard.

Based on what he had heard, it was very likely a misunderstanding.

Su Xing, that disciple, was a very young warrior.

At Tahe Sect, it was confirmed that he was helping the sect deal with the problem of demons.

He was basically on the front lines.

Su Xing's identity even had some unofficial implications.

As the Palace Master, Yao Wen's brows furrowed slightly.

He had already understood these matters beforehand, but hearing his overseer speak like this, he couldn't help but feel even more disappointed.

"Let's go and take a look first, after all, we've put so much thought into this."

Yao Wen's words actually revealed that he had lowered his expectations.

This time, he was going mainly because there were no other leads.

On Tahe Sect's side, Chai Yongshan personally arranged for the reception.

With the Palace Master of Zhu Ming Palace coming in person this time, Tahe Sect would offer a more respectful reception.

He even instructed those below to prepare gifts.

When the time came to leave disappointed, Tahe Sect would send some gifts, at least to slightly make up for it.

It was also a way to express their gratitude for the guidance received by the Alchemy Workshop during this period.

Tahe Sect's kitchen also started preparing the meal early.

Regardless of whether the people from Zhu Ming Palace would show up, they had to prepare in advance.

Su Chen stayed in Tahe Sect's guest room for two days.

During these two days, he met with Tahe Sect's elders and hall masters.

They were probably afraid of saying the wrong thing.

When conversing with them, he had made many assumptions.

The people from Zhu Ming Palace had arrived, and they might ask about certain topics.

How should he respond to these topics more appropriately?

As it turned out, Su Chen and Tahe Sect's interests were aligned.

Tahe Sect's elders also didn't want Zhu Ming Palace to blame Su Chen for this misunderstanding.

After all, a power like Zhu Ming Palace wouldn't hold a grudge against an ordinary disciple.

If they had grievances, they would definitely take it out on Tahe Sect.

This evening, at dusk, Palace Master Yao Wen of Zhu Ming Palace arrived with two elders.

This was a significant matter for Tahe Sect.

The two sects were equal on the surface and had a friendly relationship.

However, Tahe Sect still needed to curry favor with Zhu Ming Palace.

As the sect master, Chai Yongshan personally welcomed them this time.

Both sides exchanged pleasantries and courtesies.

Originally, Chai Yongshan wanted to invite them to first taste Tahe Sect's feast.

But Yao Wen politely refused, saying he wanted to see Su Chen first.

These were all within their expectations.

Yao Wen had arranged for elders and sent the overseer.

Regarding this matter, they would definitely pay great attention.

In Tahe Sect's western reception hall, Su Chen was already waiting there.

Yao Wen, leading the people from Zhu Ming Palace, made their way there.

Upon seeing Su Chen, it seemed like they couldn't help but feel even more disappointed.

Jade Essence Pills, even for these pill refiners who had immersed themselves in the art of pill refinement for decades, it was difficult to fully comprehend.

Those two Jade Essence Pills were almost certainly not refined by that young man from last year.

They could only observe and see if there were others behind Su Chen.

Yao Wen asked the sect master of Tahe Sect to take the others away; they wanted to talk to Su Chen alone.

Soon, on the reception hall's side, there were only Su Chen, Yao Wen, and the two elders he brought.

"I've disappointed Palace Master Yao, I sent the letters to you.

But this time, it's a misunderstanding."

Su Chen took the initiative to speak.

Upon hearing this, the disappointment on the faces of the Zhu Ming Palace group deepened.

Yao Wen looked at Su Chen and softly replied, "A misunderstanding?"

Regarding this matter, Su Chen felt he had done nothing wrong.

In the moment of hesitation, he directly asked the doubt in his heart.

"Actually, I have a question for Palace Master Yao!"

In the major alchemy powers of the State of Jin, isn't the Jade Essence Pill not as highly valued?

I thought that sending two Jade Essence Pills would make the seniors take it as seriously as you do today."

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Yao Wen and the other two elders were taken aback.

"You sent two Jade Essence Pills?"
