Yushui City, a small city nestled on the banks of a river, is located on the outskirts of the northern region of Zhongzhou. It is controlled by a sect called the Yushui Sect.
One day, a flying beast came from afar to the outside of the city, and then a group of nine people walked down and entered the city.
"You three, I'll give you half a month to break through to the Dou Wang level before you can continue on your journey!" Ye Chen glanced at the three Yao brothers who were following him dejectedly and said coldly.
"Ah?" The three Yao brothers all widened their eyes.
A breakthrough in half a month? How is that even possible...
Of course, Ye Chen wasn't really unreasonable. Looking at the three confused guys, he said angrily, "You guys! Following a high-level alchemist, do you still need to worry about slow cultivation?"
Ye Chen has made up his mind. He will focus on training these three people. He will give them elixirs and other medicines directly, and then get some blood essence from lions, tigers, bears and other monsters to assist in the practice of the Three Beasts Savage Art. If they still can't break through within half a month, then they will really be useless!
After understanding Ye Chen's intention, the three Yao brothers were suddenly surrounded by great surprise...
Who would have thought that they originally thought they would be enslaved like beasts of burden, but now they suddenly found that this treatment was better than when they were the kings of the Black Horn Territory. In an instant, most of their resentment towards being forced into slavery by Ye Chen dissipated.
Not only the three of them, but also Queen Medusa and Alita beside them were moved by this scene...
Is this the benefit of following a high-level alchemist? He'll give you elixirs and techniques to help you break through at the drop of a hat!
With a turn of her eyes, Alita immediately approached Ye Chen with a smile and said flatteringly: "Well, sir, since my strength is so poor, can you give me some pills so that I can make a breakthrough... Then I can help you..."
Ye Chen looked at this guy who was trying to please him and couldn't help but said, "You are just a little fighting master, what can you do to help me? You can't even cook..."
Alita: "…"
It felt like I was hit hard in the heart!
Looking at Alita who pretended to be deeply shocked, and Xiao Qinglin who was trying hard to comfort her mother, Ye Chen shook his head speechlessly.
"Alright, stop pretending to be such a jerk. Look, Qing Lin has been fooled by you..." Ye Chen exposed it without hesitation, but finally said: "I really don't have any pills that can help Dou Shi practice. After all, those low-level ones are of no use to me. Let's go to the city first, then find a pharmacy, buy some herbs, and help you refine some..."
After hearing Ye Chen's words, Alita, who had achieved her goal, immediately became energetic and thanked him with a smile: "Hehe, thank you, sir!"
Walking into Yu Shui City, I saw the bustling crowds of people coming and going.
Although it is just a small town, because it is close to the wilderness, many people set out from here to explore the wilderness, so the people in the town are all very powerful.
This also made Medusa and others who came to Zhongzhou for the first time realize once again the difference between Zhongzhou and the Northwest Continent. At the very least, the overall strength of Zhongzhou was much higher than that of the Northwest Continent.
Looking at the people around him, most of them were at the Douling and Douwang levels, and from time to time, he could even see Douhuang-level people walking by...
In Zhongzhou, only those who have reached the Dou Zong level can be considered strong, and only the Dou Zong can support a sufficiently stable force to survive.
They found an inn. Since the two children and Alita were already a little tired due to their weak strength, Ye Chen asked them and the three Yao brothers to stay in the inn. He also asked Hu Tian to stay and watch over them while he and Queen Medusa went to the pharmacy in the city to check...
Hu Tian was a little uneasy about this arrangement at first, but when he thought about how Queen Medusa's combat power far exceeded his own, and that his son's safety would be guaranteed with her accompanying him, he gave up.
Queen Medusa was speechless about this...
"Your servant is indeed loyal, but aren't you being too cautious? With your current Douhuang cultivation, are you still afraid of accidents?"
After the two left the inn, Queen Medusa finally said what she had been holding in her heart.
In response to her question, Ye Chen just smiled slightly and said, "After all, we are in Zhongzhou. Danger is everywhere. Besides, as an alchemist, I can't just roll up my sleeves and go into battle alone, right? I'm not good at fighting..."
Well, Queen Medusa didn't believe a word of this!
Half an hour later, the two arrived at a luxuriously decorated pharmacy...
What's more, because it is close to the wilderness, many rare medicinal herbs from the wilderness are sold here, so Ye Chen is very satisfied with the variety of medicinal herbs in this pharmacy. At least most of the medicinal herbs he needs can be found here.
Perhaps it was the eye-catching combination of the handsome man and beautiful woman, or perhaps it was simply the special charm of Queen Medusa that swept everyone away. In any case, the moment the two stepped into the pharmacy, they immediately attracted all the attention in the store.
"Two guests, do you need any help?" A white-haired old man in green clothes came with a smile and asked Ye Chen and the others politely.
Ye Chen took a look at the other person and found that he was actually a high-level Dou Wang. It seemed that he was the owner of this store.
Without any nonsense, Ye Chen took out the list of medicinal materials he had prepared earlier and handed it to the other party.
The old man took a look at the list Ye Chen handed over, his face lit up with joy at first, and then he immediately began to check it carefully.
"The blood essence of three sixth-level monsters: lion, tiger, and bear, blue flame grass, black gastrodia elata, seven-death ginseng, and blood dragon fungus..."
Looking at this long list of names, the old man became more and more delighted. Although the items here varied in grade, they were mainly high-grade medicinal herbs and sixth-tier magical beast essences and cores. These were all valuable items, making this truly a big deal.
After reading it, the old man immediately smiled and took Ye Chen and the other person to the VIP room to sit down, and then said: "Guests, please rest here for a while. I will go and prepare the materials on the list for you."
Ye Chen nodded and let the other party leave. He had encountered this scene more than once when he was in the Dan Domain, so he was happy to be at ease.
Queen Medusa watched all this silently. It was her first time in Zhongzhou, and she still needed to adapt to the pace of Zhongzhou.
Half an hour later, the old man appeared again, but looking at his expression, he seemed a little gloomy. Could there be some unexpected event?
