Listen to the report of the informant.

Yun Xingbo, the owner of the Skylark Palace, stared coldly: "Go and check the identities of those two people. If they are not members of the Blood Alliance and You Luomen, they would rather kill them by mistake than let them go."

"Yes!" The informant left quickly.

...

Ye Yuxi practiced in her room all afternoon, and continued to meditate after dinner.

At noon the next day, Lao Lai brought good news that a stone room suitable for refining medicine had been found!

Ye Yuxi's pupils shrank when he smelled the faint smell of blood on Lao Lai's body. It seems that Lao Lai used some iron and blood methods just now!

Looking up and down at Lao Lai's clothes, Ye Yuxi suddenly realized something: "Senior, can I ask you a question?"

"Huh? Little girl, what do you say?" Lao Lai's face changed, thinking that something was wrong with Ye Yuxi, and he couldn't make medicine today.

"Senior, have you been short of money recently?" After Ye Yuxi said this, she couldn't believe it.

But Lao Lai's clothes are really...

If he didn't know Lao Lai's cultivation level, Ye Yuxi would definitely think that Lao Lai was an elderly beggar from his appearance.

Lao Lai looked at the expression on Ye Yuxi's face, looked down at his clothes, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face: "Ahem, well, I don't care much about these external things all these years inside."

"Senior, you told me that you are my old slave to the outside world, so our clothes must not be too different, right? This is one million gold coins, and it is considered a commission for hiring seniors." The corner of Ye Yuxi's mouth rose a little. With a smile, he made an excuse at will.

Lao Lai has lived for decades, and he also understands Ye Yuxi's intentions, so he didn't refuse, "This is the address of that courtyard, I'll call Axiu here."

Axiu left the town after meeting Ye Yuxi that day. Axiu couldn't let go of his grandfather, so he rushed back to the valley overnight.

Ye Yuxi looked at the things in his hands, and asked Shang Jingfei to survey the terrain.

...

in the valley.

Lao Lai fell from the sky with a look of excitement, this time he chose to land directly in the courtyard, without even knocking on the door.

"Old Ghost Sun, Ah Xiu? Come out quickly, something good will happen." Lao Lai's hoarse voice sounded in the courtyard.

Within a few seconds, there was a rattling cane sound in the room.

"Lao Lai, why are you here today?" Sun Anpeng's voice sounded, and Axiu followed.

"Axiu, come with me later, that sister promised to help you refine the medicine." Lao Lai waved at Axiu.

Ah Xiu didn't move, but looked at Sun Anpeng who was at the side.

Sun Anpeng was taken aback, staring at Lao Lai and asked, "That little girl is ready so soon?"

"Well, I have prepared three batches of medicinal materials. Even if the success rate is only 30%, I should be able to refine one." Lao Lai was a little uncertain.

The failure rate of refining medicine is extremely high, so those who ask for help to refine medicine usually prepare a few more medicinal materials.

Even if the refining fails, the person who seeks the medicine still owes half of the favor to the pharmacist, and the pharmacist will not compensate the seeker anything if it fails!

Lao Lai is well aware of this, and also knows that the higher the grade of the elixir, the more difficult it is to refine it, so he prepared a few more medicinal materials.

"Axiu, let's go with your grandpa Fu." Sun Anpeng's eyes flashed with relief. If Axiu's throat can be cured, he will forget about it.

Axiu reluctantly glanced at Sun Anpeng, spread his wings, and left the courtyard with the old man.

...

northern capital.

The stone room that Lao Lai found was in a very remote location, and there were idle houses on the left and right, and no one lived in it for many years.

Ye Yuxi asked Jing Fei to tidy up the stone room and wait for Lao Lai's return.
