Zhu Chen smiled and accepted the item.
Yao Lao had refined two Imperial Extreme Pills, both at peak sixth grade.
Their medicinal potency far exceeded that of pills refined by ordinary sixth- or even seventh-grade alchemists.
The moment Zhu Chen opened the bottle, a rich pill fragrance spread out, accompanied by traces of pure spiritual energy.
"As expected of Yao Lao's craftsmanship. If I take these two Imperial Extreme Pills, my cultivation should rise significantly."
He was extremely satisfied.
However, now wasn't the time to refine them.
Zhu Chen stored the pills in his cave and then checked the messages tagging him.

[Xiao Yan]: @ZhuChen Brother Zhu, your Imperial Extreme Pills are done. My teacher refined two. Are you there?
[Xiao Yan]: @ZhuChen Brother Zhu, I've sent you the pills. Please receive them when you're online.
[Lin Dong]: @ZhuChen Brother Zhu, my Ancestral Stone is fully charged!
[Lin Dong]: @ZhuChen Brother Zhu, Brother Han Li wanted to borrow it. Since you weren't here, I lent it to him first!
[Han Li]: @ZhuChen Fellow Daoist Zhu, I'm borrowing Fellow Daoist Lin's Ancestral Stone for now. Please let me know if you need it urgently.
---
Over the past two and a half months, Zhu Chen had been tagged countless times.
Among them, Lin Dong appeared the most frequently.
Every time the Ancestral Stone finished recharging, Lin Dong would immediately notify him.
Zhu Chen almost felt embarrassed.
This Martial Ancestor was far too honest.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, Zhu Chen's gaze paused on another message.
It was from Tang San.
[Tang San]:
@ZhuChen Don't think you can act however you want just because you're the group admin. Let me tell you—I will become the God King of the Divine Realm in the future, standing above the heavens. You've insulted me repeatedly. When I ascend as God King, I will search for you no matter the cost and make you pay for everything.
---
After reading this message, Zhu Chen nearly laughed out loud.
A God King from the Douluo World wanting to stand above the heavens?
That was hilarious.
Why not just say he wanted to rule all epochs alone?
Zhu Chen ignored Tang San's message and scrolled the chat to the latest activity.
At this moment, the group was unusually lively.

[Xiao Yan]: Hahaha~! After countless trials, I've finally fused the Purple Flame with the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame! My signature move—Buddha's Fury Lotus—has appeared ahead of schedule! It's terrifying! I really want to try it on Tang San right now!
[Lin Dong]: Impressive! Right now, aside from Brother Zhu's Vermilion Bird Technique, I don't really have anything worth mentioning.
[Xiao Yan]: Brother Zhu's technique is powerful, but relying on others' methods isn't ideal. You should create your own martial arts. Only techniques you create yourself will truly suit you.
[Naruto Uzumaki]: I think Brother Xiao Yan is right! I've also been developing my own techniques lately!
[Xiao Yan]: Not bad, Brother Naruto! I didn't expect you to take this path. You've got potential!
[Naruto Uzumaki]: Haha~ Everyone's improving, I can't fall behind! By the way, Brother Zhu hasn't shown up for over two months. I wonder what he's been doing.
[Xiao Yan]: Don't worry. He'll appear soon.
[Naruto Uzumaki]: Really? How do you know? Do you have foresight?
[Xiao Yan]: No foresight. But every time you say that, he shows up immediately. Maybe it's a curse…
[Zhu Chen]: ???
[Xiao Yan]: Holy crap—Brother Zhu, you really showed up?!
Xiao Yan rubbed his eyes, suspecting hallucinations.
Only after confirming the message was real did he hurriedly speak again.
[Xiao Yan]: Brother Zhu, did you receive the Imperial Extreme Pills I sent earlier?
[Zhu Chen]: Received. Please convey my thanks to Elder Yao for his hard work.
[Xiao Yan]: Good! If you need pills again, just let me know. I've been handling almost all the pill-refining orders in the group lately. Brother Han Li placed quite a few orders a few days ago—I've been extremely busy!
Seeing this message, Zhu Chen froze.
This kid was taking orders left and right—
Was he treating Elder Yao like free labor?
…
Meanwhile—
In a guest room at a desert inn in the Doupo World.
Yao Lao, who was refining pills, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"Strange… Why do I feel like someone's been watching me lately?"
"Could it be because I helped that brat Xiao Yan obtain the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame early, and Queen Medusa has set her sights on me?"
Yao Lao frowned, pondered briefly, then suddenly realized something.
He turned sharply toward Xiao Yan's room next door and shouted,
"You brat—did you take on another job for me in that group chat?!"
