"Little fellow, please wait a moment. Can you listen to this old man?" Just as Lingyun turned around and took a few steps back, the old man who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke up to urge him to stay.

As his words fell, the faces of both the inner disciples of the Hidden Dragon Sect and Ye Tianjing, who had been preparing to board the ship with a face full of unwillingness, were all filled with surprise.

"Please speak, Senior." Ling Yunfan stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked.

"Little guy, do you want to participate in the inner sect disciple test and become a true inner sect disciple?" Hearing Ling Yun Fan's question, the old man asked with a mysterious expression.

Hearing this, Lingyun thought for a while, and then slowly answered: "There are a few young disciples in the world who do not want to become an inner disciple of the Hidden Dragon Sect, so senior's asking this is a little unnecessary. Let's just get straight to the point!"

How about this, as long as you can free up a little bit of time and let my crystal ball touch you, I will use my authority as an elder to allow you to participate in the inner court disciple test. After hearing Ling Yunfan's words, the old man had a rare smile on his face.

When he heard that he still had a chance to become an inner disciple of the Hidden Dragon Sect, Lingyun was filled with excitement.

He was not the only one who was smiling. Even Ye Tian and the others were smiling happily.

"This, Elder Yun, this is a bit inappropriate, right? The person who forbids this Lingyun from participating in the inner disciple test is Elder Bai Mu Bing!" However, the alchemist who had made a move against Ling Yunfan earlier had a drastic change in expression. He immediately tried to stop the old man's actions.

"Scram to the side. This old man has also come with the orders of that person. Elder Bai Mu Bing does not have the ability to disobey that person's decision." The old man's face was filled with anger as he saw that the Fierce Demon wanted to stop him, so he shouted at the Fierce Demon.

And then, just as he finished speaking, he immediately went up to Lingyun. He took out a fist-sized, pure white crystal from his Cosmos Sack and handed it over, "As long as you hold onto this crystal tightly."

Hearing this, although Lingyun did not understand why he was doing this, but in order to be able to participate in the inner sect disciple test, he did not think too much about it, and immediately held the crystal in his hand.

It didn't matter if he didn't clench his fist. However, the moment he did, the originally ordinary crystal started to emit an eye-piercing azure light.

"Hahaha... That's great. This old man has completed his mission. I've finally found it!" Seeing this, the old man, who had no expression on his face, suddenly laughed.

After the light disappeared, the old man, who was laughing maniacally, quickly reached out and grabbed Ling Yunfan, who was only at the first level of the Natal gathering stage.

"Senior, what do you mean by this?" Seeing himself being grabbed like a prisoner, Ling Yunfan started to panic as well. He struggled nonstop, and at the same time, asked a question with a puzzled expression.

After hearing Lingyun Fan's words, the old man let go and said excitedly: "Little guy, congratulations. This time, regardless of whether you pass the assessment or not, you can become an inner disciple of my Hidden Dragon Sect at any time."

"Ah, why?" To this old man's sudden words, Lingyun Fan was both surprised and excited.

"That crystal was used to test the apothecary's talent, and the leader of the four elders, Elder Tian Xuan Qing, dreamt that you would possess an unprecedented talent for alchemy, so he told me to come here and find out if that person really exists. Now that it has been proven that you are that person, naturally, he will treat you well!" Hearing Ling Yun's somewhat long-winded question, the old man did not find it troublesome and answered patiently.

"What!?" "He is the man whom the Great Elder dreamt of. Oh no, I have offended the wrong person." At this moment, after hearing the old man's words, the refined Huo on the other side stood still as if it had been petrified.

"Also, you don't need to call me senior. This old man's name is Yun Yangqing, you can call me Old Yun!" Soon after, the old man kindly spoke to Ling Yunfan once more.

"Uh, alright then." Towards the sudden arrival of this old man who called himself Yun Yangqing, Ling Yunfan was not used to it either.

Then, with Old Yun's help, Lingyun finally avoided Bai Mu Bing's order to make things difficult for him. He boarded the flying ship with his good brother and headed towards the Hidden Dragon Sect.

As they entered the spaceship, those who weren't aware of the situation naturally didn't look at them. Those who were, however, were staring at Lingyun with eyes full of envy.

Just as he sat down, the giant spaceship flew into the sky at an incredible speed.

Ling Yunfan, who was sitting on the boat, looked around as the scenery quickly passed by. His heart was very excited. He finally took the first step in his revenge plan towards Li Xue'er, and similarly, took an important starting point on his path of martial arts.

"Senior Brother Feng Ruo, that brat is someone that the Great Elder has his eyes on. How should we explain this to Elder Bai Mu Bing?"

At this moment, in a certain room on the Violet Roc spirit ship, the Purgatory Spirit Master looked at the man in front of him with a worried expression.

"Junior brother, you don't need to rush, we can answer truthfully when the time comes. In any case, we don't have the authority to obstruct the grand elder's path, so there's no reason for her to blame us even if she wanted to." In comparison to the panicking Lian Huo, the man named Feng Ruo answered with a calm expression.

"That's true, senior brother is right." With Feng Ruo's consolation, the originally flustered Lian Huo also quickly calmed down.

"..."

Just as everyone was chatting, the thin Feng Ruo walked out and loudly said: "Tomorrow morning you will arrive at the Hidden Dragon Sect. At that time, you will have to participate in the exam. Prepare yourself well before that happens."

Finished speaking, he did not linger any longer and left.

"Shaotian, take out the food we prepared yesterday. Since there's nothing else to do, let's enjoy it!" After looking at the scenery for a while, Ling Yunfan spoke to the dazed Pan Shaotian.

"Oh, okay." After hearing Ling Yunfan's words, Pan Shaotian took out four bowls and chopsticks, a few fragrant dishes, and two jars of liquid essence brewing and placing them on the table in front of the four of them.

Seeing the appearance of the food and wine, both Lingyun and Ye Astronomical stared at them with glowing eyes. They looked like hungry wolves.

After that, Lingyun was the first to pour each of them a full bowl of the original liquid. Only then did they start to eat with the food on the table.

Following Ling Yunfan's group eating and drinking, the rest of the people on the boat also took out food from their Qiankun bags and started to eat as well. Of course, there were also those who did not do anything before looking at the most delicious food with displeased expressions on their faces.

"Why didn't you call this old man over when there was alcohol to drink? Tsk tsk, original liquid brewing, I like it the most!"

Just as Lingyun and the others were beginning to drink, Old Yun's voice came from behind them.

Soon after, when they reacted, they discovered that there was an extra person at the table that was originally four people, and this person was Old Yun who gave off a mysterious feeling.

Old Yun, who was sitting at the table, held a bowl filled with liquefied wine in his hands. He picked up the meat on the table with his chopsticks and started to eat.

Towards this, Ling Yun and the others also secretly laughed, and did not say much.
