Chapter 7024
7024 The headmaster’s request
He didn’t know how long it would take for him to return. If he was unlucky, he might not be able to return, or it might take hundreds of years … In short, there was nothing wrong with being mentally prepared.
It wasn’t even daybreak yet when Lin Yi returned to the Morning Star Mystic division school, but he saw the Dean waiting outside his courtyard, as if something had come up.
“Director, what are you doing?”
Lin Yi didn’t have any bad feelings towards the Dean-he’d have to help Qing Danzi take care of the dark night Mountain region in the future, after all.
“Young hero Lin, did I disturb your rest? I was going to wait until dawn to visit …”
The headmaster cupped his hands and bowed apologetically,””I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect to alert young hero Lin!”
“It’s fine. May I know why the Dean has come over at this time?”
Lin Yi waved his hand, a little confused. He’d decided to visit at dawn, so why would he hang around in the dark?
“It’s like this. I want to ask Master Lin to help me refine a batch of pills … Actually, I wanted to ask him earlier but it wasn’t easy to talk to him at that time …”
The Dean was a little nervous as he spoke. He even sneaked a glance at Lin Yi and changed his form of address from young hero Lin to Master Lin,”I know about Master Lin’s skills in alchemy. I’m afraid only you can help me with this!”
“So it’s alchemy. I wonder what kind of alchemy pill the headmaster needs?”
Lin Yi understood-house Guan and the Dean didn’t get along before, and it was unlikely that they’d want to make pills. House Guan was no longer under the school’s control, but their Alchemist was dead!
Lin Yi was indeed the best person for the Dean to ask for pills.
“I want to ask Master Lin to refine the void pill! I heard that President Huang was able to break through to the heaven breaking stage because he asked Master Lin to refine the void pill!”
The Dean was excited-Lin Yi didn’t seem to reject him!
This had been his wish for many years, and it was about to be realized. How could he not be excited?
“Brother Huang, that’s because of your own deep accumulation. Medicinal pills are just adding flowers to a brocade!”
“If the Dean wants the void pill, that’s fine, but the ingredients …” Lin Yi said faintly.
“Don’t worry, Master Lin. I’ve already prepared the ingredients. It’s just that it’s not easy to gather the ingredients for the void pill. I only have one and a half portions here … I wonder if I have a chance of successfully refining it?”
The Dean was a little embarrassed. When had he ever asked someone to refine pills for him?
It was because he did not have much power as the Dean in the past. To be able to gather one and a half sets of materials had already taken him many years.
If it was any other Alchemist, this amount of materials would not even be enough for the reward, so how could they refine pills?
Only Lin Yi had the chance to ask for it, and the only reason he didn’t mention it at the banquet was because of one and a half portions … It’d be too embarrassing to say it in front of others!
Especially since Huang Yuntian was present, he was too embarrassed to ask.
“Master Lin, the ingredients for the void pill are indeed a little lacking. As for the cost of the pill, I’ve also prepared some other gifts. I hope that Master Lin will kindly accept them.”
The Dean knew that he was in the wrong, so he respectfully handed over a storage bag, which contained many other spirit herbs, spirit crystals, and other things.
Lin Yi didn’t really mind-he took it and nodded,”No problem. Although the materials are a little lacking, I’m still confident that I can successfully refine it. Dean, please return and wait for my news. Before I leave this place, I’ll definitely help you refine the void pill!”
“Many thanks, Master Lin! There’s no rush. Master Lin, rest well. It won’t be too late to refine the pills after you’ve recovered!”
The Dean was overjoyed. He quickly cupped his hands in thanks, then respectfully took his leave.
Lin Yi was planning on leaving after daybreak, but he couldn’t just leave like that now.
He might as well wait for Qing Danzi to come and take advantage of these few days to recuperate the stability of his primordial spirit body and plan what he needed to do before leaving.
After leaving the words on the door, Lin Yi really did start his closed-door training.
However, he wasn’t going to refine pills. He still had void pills in his hands, so he didn’t really need to refine them. This time, he was mainly going to recuperate his primordial spirit body.
It would be even better if Ding Yi could come back in a few days and tell him about Wang Xinyan!
It was a pity that Ding Yi didn’t show up after three days. Perhaps the tunnel wasn’t easy to go through, or Xinyan’s whereabouts weren’t so easy to find-there was still no news of him when Lin Yi came out.
“Master Lin! You’re out? It’s hard work!”
The Dean smiled as he saw Lin Yi. He’d been loitering outside for the past three days, protecting Lin Yi. After all, the void pill was related to his breakthrough-he couldn’t be too careful.
However, the Dean didn’t dare to ask if the void pill was successful or not, afraid that he’d offend Lin Yi!
If the process failed, asking a question like that would be like slapping Lin Yi in the face-he really didn’t dare do something so exciting …
“The headmaster has been waiting. The void pill has been successfully refined!”
Lin Yi smiled and took out a small Jade bottle for the Dean.”I wish the Dean a smooth breakthrough to the heaven breaking stage!”
“Thank you, thank you so much, Master Lin!”
The Dean’s face was filled with excitement. His hands trembled as he took the Jade bottle and opened the bottle cap while thanking him.
A fresh pill fragrance slowly rose up, and the Dean immediately showed a satisfied and comfortable expression. After seeing the pill in the Jade bottle, he suddenly exclaimed,”Special grade void pill? Master Lin, you can actually refine special grade pills!”
That’s right, Lin Yi took out special grade void pills!
He had no choice. He only had special grade void pills left.
The only medium-quality one was given to Liu zhangong, and the only high-quality one was given to ding one …
“Ha … Practice makes perfect. After refining it a few times, I’m already familiar with it!”
Lin Yi said casually, quickly changing the topic.”When will Qing Danzi arrive?”
According to the original plan, Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to see Qing Danzi anymore, but he might be able to see him after three days.
“Master Qing Danzi should be here soon. Maybe we’ll see him soon.”
The Dean kept the Jade bottle carefully, suppressing his excitement as he replied respectfully.
He just wanted to go back and break through to the heaven breaking realm, but Lin Yi was still here, so he couldn’t just leave.
“Dean, if it’s convenient, can you help me confirm where Qing Danzi is currently at? I still have something to do. If he doesn’t arrive today, I won’t wait for him!”
Lin Yi said after some thought. The Dean patted his chest and promised that he’d get it done immediately.
