Ye Qiu had no intention to stay any longer and directly said to the elder of the auction house, "Since my pill is gone, may I leave now?"
"Alchemist Ye, you may come and go as you please; there is no need to ask me," the elder of the auction house replied courteously and respectfully. Even if Ye Qiu could not obtain the title of the first Alchemist, his alchemy had already won over the elder.
"I understand." Ye Qiu nodded slightly, giving a signal with his eyes to Chen Yafeng, and then said to Hua Wuji and Jin Xiaoshun, "Let's go."
"All right."
Jin Xiaoshun had long wanted to leave, feeling the alchemy competition was somewhat unfair.
Hua Wuji said nothing more, called to the tabby cat, and the three of them immediately followed Ye Qiu away.
With the members of Dan Shen Sect gone, the alchemy competition moved into its final stage — selecting the candidate for the first Alchemist.
