The only thing that set Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er apart from other Earth Immortals, for Lin Xuankong, was that if any other Earth Immortal from the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect came, he could maintain his status as the First Tributor.

However, Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er, despite her unique personality, was very kind to Young Lady Lii Xiaolan. According to Young Lady Lii Xiaolan, since becoming Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er's disciple, the only requirement her master had for her was to wholeheartedly focus on Alchemy! Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er had more than a dozen True Disciples. While other True Disciples would be assigned various tasks by the Medicine Immortal, Young Lady Lii Xiaolan was never given trivial chores. If it weren't for this, even with the thirtyfold Cultivation Speed bonus from Lin Xuankong's "Wives, Children, Elders, and Youngsters" Talent, her Alchemy Technique wouldn't have advanced so quickly!

Thinking of this, Lin Xuankong immediately stood up. His figure shifted, and he traversed the side hall, opened its door, and walked out.

Hundreds of feet away from the side hall door, the dozen or so Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect disciples guarding the mountain gate were rather troubled because Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er was attempting to force her way in. Seeing Lin Xuankong emerge, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The leading Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect disciple respectfully saluted from afar and said, "Tributor Mu, this is our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's Medicine Immortal, Immortal Venerable Qu!"

Lin Xuankong nodded slightly. His figure flashed, and he landed several hundred feet away, in front of Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er.

At this moment, Young Lady Lii Xiaolan, standing beside Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er, winked at him and made a facial expression, clearly signaling Lin Xuankong to show some respect to Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er.

In fact, even if Young Lady Lii Xiaolan hadn't given him a look, how could he possibly show disrespect to Lan's master?

Standing before Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er, Lin Xuankong sized up the Medicine Immortal. The only Alchemy Master of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect looked to be in her thirties. She was draped in a purple gauze robe, tall and voluptuous with exquisite curves, her face as beautiful as a painting. Yet, her expression was quite cold; even seeing Lin Xuankong approach, she retained her frigid demeanor!

However, what surprised Lin Xuankong a bit in the next moment was that, despite her cold demeanor, Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er suddenly bowed to him. "Tributor Mu, Qu Wan'Er greets you!"

Lin Xuankong was rather astonished. He had heard that this Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er, being the only Earth Immortal in the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect who could refine Immortal-grade Elixirs and Immortal Ascension Treasure Pills, enjoyed a highly esteemed status. Even Sect Leader Li had great respect for her, and those Supreme Elders greatly valued her. Moreover, according to Lii Xiaolan, Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er held quite a bit of disdain for Male Cultivators due to certain reasons from her youth! How could such a highly esteemed Earth Immortal be so courteous and proactively pay respects to him, a mere Male Cultivator at the tenth Initial Tier?

Not only was Lin Xuankong surprised, but at this moment, the dozen Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect disciples guarding the mountain gate also showed expressions of shock. Being selected to guard the Spirit Mountain gate of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's First Tributor meant they were elites among the disciples, having joined many years ago. Thus, they were well aware of Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er's temperament. When they occasionally went to her mountain gate to request Elixirs, they often received a cold shoulder!

But this Medicine Immortal, who usually treated the Male Cultivators of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect with cold disdain, was surprisingly respectful upon meeting 'Mu Shiba'? And just a moment ago, the Medicine Immortal was still maintaining that icy demeanor!

At this moment, even Young Lady Lii Xiaolan, standing next to Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er, had her pretty face contort. She looked at Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er repeatedly, as if she hardly recognized her own master.

Lin Xuankong was stunned for a moment, then managed to force a polite smile. "Mu Shiba was unaware that Senior Medicine Immortal was visiting; I apologize for not welcoming you sooner! Senior Medicine Immortal holds an extraordinary status in our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and is also Lan's master. There's no need to be so courteous to me!"

Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er glanced at him, her expression cold, and spoke, "Tributor Mu is the First Tributor of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, with a status comparable to the Sect Leader. It's only proper that Qu Wan'Er pays her respects. Besides, I was a bit agitated earlier, but it was not directed at Tributor Mu. There are some other reasons, which left me somewhat frustrated!

"Flaming Blade Duan River from the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect has rallied Earth Immortals from dozens of other Immortal Sects. They have now arrived at Celestial Fire Mountain, three hundred miles outside Spiritual Crane Immortal City. Most of these sects are like birds of a feather, having long been in collusion with the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect. They are all tyrannical, acting in ways similar to the evil paths of Demon Sects.

"Moreover, three powerful Immortal Sects from the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region—the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the Profound Pure Immortal Sect, and the Guangqing Immortal Sect—have also dispatched several Earth Immortals, led by their respective Sect Leaders!

"Additionally, according to reports from our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's scouts, even today, many Earth Immortals from various sects continue to converge on Celestial Fire Mountain. As of now, the number of Earth Immortals gathered there has exceeded two hundred, with over twenty of them being Fifth Grade Earth Immortals!"

Lin Xuankong couldn't help but be a little surprised. So, Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er was scolding those Immortal Sect disciples outside his side hall earlier because of something else, not because of him?

Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er continued, "That is correct. The agitation I felt earlier was due to the news about Flaming Blade Duan River and the others. It has nothing to do with you, Tributor Mu."
