Martial Peak

“You’re really heartless…” An Ling’er had at some point appeared and said as she stared towards the direction Yun Xuan left, “With her like that, even if both of you could not accept each other, couldn’t you have at least said a few sweet words to her?”

“That would only make things worse,” Yang Kai shook his head.

“I get that… but…”

Yang Kai glanced over at her, “That’s why I don’t talk to you about love, or else you’ll just end up like this in the future!”

“I, I won’t…,” An Ling’er turned bright red before hurriedly running off.

Turning around, Yang Kai headed back to the Holy Master Court to continue his Alchemy.

The five Grandmasters were keenly aware that Yang Kai’s mood seemed to have undergone some subtle changes and he was even making more mistakes as he was practising Alchemy, nearly ruining several batches of good materials and causing cold sweat to leak from their brows.

However, his dampened mood was soon swept away and Yang Kai regained his focus, flawlessly performing Alchemy and raising each of the Grandmasters’ expectations.

The sun rose and the moon set, in a blink of an eye, a few months had passed.

Nine Heavens Holy Land’s Alchemy Grandmaster’s reputation had now spread throughout the entire mainland, riding a seemingly unstoppable wave of popularity and worship.

Every day outside the nine peaks was incredibly lively, with a now seemingly endless river of people waiting in line for Alchemy services.

The Holy Land had gained an unimaginable amount of wealth and rare cultivation materials, enough to make even the richest of merchants jealous.

Xu Hui and the other Elders spent all day long laughing raucously.

Yang Kai and the five Grandmasters had now been sitting inside the Holy Court’s pill room for a few months without once leaving.

Every day, Yang Kai would refine exactly twenty pills, allowing the Grandmasters to observe everything from start to finish.

Shocked by the speed at which Yang Kai performed Alchemy, the five of them soon became obsessed with his exquisite techniques.

Refining twenty pills in a single day wasn’t a feat any of the Grandmasters here could achieve.

If it was just Spirit Grade Top Rank pills, each of the Grandmasters present could perhaps refine seven or eight in a day.

But refining Saint Pills consumed far more Spiritual Energy and True Qi, as well as mental and physical stamina, so each of the Grandmasters here estimated that even if they went all out, two would be the maximum they could produce before collapsing from exhaustion!

Yang Kai, however, only needed to spend seven or eight hours each day, to refine all twenty pills, sometimes even less.

The rest of the time was used by him to digest his accumulated insights as well as restore the strength he consumed in the Alchemy process.
