Chapter 817: Chapter 744: Over 10 Assist Star Pills

Five Immortals City.

After Qu Zhongjin and Gan Mu, the two Great Medicine-Refining Masters, revealed their identities, Five Immortals City immediately became hospitable.

The person who had previously greeted them led the two to the reception hall.

Then, he instructed the servants to serve tea, and he hurried to inform Sect Leader Nalan Xing.

The greeter was well aware of the status of Qilin Valley.

Normally, others wishing to meet an Alchemist from Qilin Valley would have to offer substantial gifts.

Yet today, the two masters actually took the initiative to visit Five Immortals City.

For Five Immortals City, it was indeed a great honor.

In the small courtyard of the southern sect, Nalan Xing also wore a face of surprise.

"Are you certain that the masters from Qilin Valley have come? Did they not mention their purpose in visiting Five Immortals City?"

The person in front of him bowed and saluted: "Reporting to the Sect Leader, those two carried the scent of medicine and wore the outer robes of Qilin Valley Alchemists. It seems there is no mistake.

One of them introduced himself as Zhongjin and said he was looking for Elder Sizhi.

However, since this matter seems rather significant, I haven’t yet mentioned it to Elder Sizhi."

Nalan Xing nodded, hesitated for a moment, then put on a robe.

"Go and inform Elder Sizhi, and have him proceed to the reception hall at once to be informed about the guests from Qilin Valley."

Nalan Xing did not immediately go there himself but waited halfway for Elder Sizhi.

The two met before entering the reception hall.

Such guests were rarely seen.

An unsolicited visit was most likely not a good omen.

Nalan Xing, being in a high position, naturally would not act foolishly.

It was best to consult with Elder Sizhi to clarify the reason.

Upon meeting on the road, a brief discussion revealed the reason.

Elder Sizhi already understood Qu Zhongjin as someone who neither sought favors nor required assistance from them now.

Moreover, he was quite apprehensive about being contacted by him.

Logically, Qu Zhongjin should not be visiting Five Immortals City.

If he came, then surely there was trouble.

No surprise, Elder Sizhi speculated it concerned Shen Han.

The relationship between Shen Han and Qilin Valley was not an amicable farewell.

Their visit this time was likely to demand accountability.

Or perhaps even more serious than that, since Qilin Valley sent their Alchemists in person, the trouble must be...

After discussing with Elder Sizhi, Nalan Xing then entered the reception hall.

In front of the guests, both displayed the necessary courtesy.

As if accustomed to maintaining a haughty presence, Qu Zhongjin and Gan Mu spoke with a tone of command.

During their conversation, Elder Sizhi and Nalan Xing understood the situation.

It was indeed as Elder Sizhi had anticipated; they came for Shen Han.

"The two masters might be under some misunderstanding; this Shen Yun is not a disciple of our Five Immortals City.

The only reason I recommended him to Qilin Valley was due to a previous favor owed.

As for Shen Yun’s whereabouts, I am unaware, and so is our Sect Leader."

Hearing Elder Sizhi’s words, Qu Zhongjin’s expression slightly tensed.

"Brother Sizhi, we are old acquaintances, there’s no need to hide anything.

This person has caused a major incident, and Qilin Valley must find him.

If Five Immortals City cooperates, the valley would certainly present generous gifts in gratitude.

But if unwilling to help with this small matter, then it might be best if our two sects cease any future interactions."

After speaking, Qu Zhongjin and Gan Mu turned and left.

On the Southern Heaven Continent, Alchemists like them are elevated to high status, and such threatening words are customary.

However, after a few steps, Qu Zhongjin stopped.

"Brother Sizhi, if you reconsider, you can still convey it through sound."

He tossed a Sound Transmission Jade, seemingly offering Elder Sizhi a way out.

Seeing the two leaving, Nalan Xing’s brows furrowed tightly.

At his side, Elder Sizhi hurriedly spoke up.

"The child Shen Han has helped us a lot, although we don’t know the reason Qilin Valley is seeking him, it’s certainly not for a good reason.

Whether or not we know Shen Han’s whereabouts, even if we did know, we shouldn’t..."

Before Elder Sizhi could finish his words, Nalan Xing shot him a glare.

"Do you, Elder Sizhi, see me as so unworthy?

I have no intention of selling him out for profit."

After a brief pause, leaning slightly against the chair behind him, Nalan Xing continued thoughtfully.

"From their words, it sounds like Shen Han is in quite some trouble this time.

Shen Han already faces a formidable enemy in You Wanying, adding another like Qilin Valley would greatly endanger his safety.

Qilin Valley has held considerable prestige on the Southern Heaven Continent for many years.

If they were to deal with Shen Han, the threat would likely exceed what You Wanying could bring.

If Shen Han is willing, perhaps we can think of a way for Five Immortals City to mediate."

Hearing this, Elder Sizhi’s expression brightened slightly.

If Nalan Xing were like Shen Xiang, betraying trust, he would never return to Five Immortals City.

However, the Sect Leader’s words today made sense.

Shen Han already has a powerful adversary.

Although You Wanying seemed to suffer many setbacks against Shen Han, Shen Han still had to remain vigilant and cautious against him.

Adding another formidable enemy like Qilin Valley would mean that the crisis facing Shen Han would be several times more severe than it is now.

Qilin Valley knows many powerful individuals, and many strong figures wish to befriend Qilin Valley.

If Qilin Valley insists on dealing with Shen Han, the situation would undoubtedly be more severe than when he angered Tiger Peak Manor.

After leaving the reception hall, Elder Sizhi immediately transmitted a message to Shen Han.
