The Ximen Clan was huge. There were approximately ten thousand members in this manor. Moreover, even a guard here was at least in the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm. It could be seen how powerful the clan was.
Under the guidance of a servant, Yun Lintian and Ning Yue quickly arrived at a spacious dining hall.
At this moment, many people had already sat in their respective seats. When Yun Lintian and Ning Yue entered the hall, everyone’s gaze immediately locked onto them, making Ning Yue tremble in fright.
Yun Lintian patted her hand gently, trying to ease her nervousness before cupping his fists. “Greetings, everyone. My name is Lin Tian, and this is my sister Lin Yue.”
“I can’t believe there is such a powerful young alchemist.” A middle-aged man who sat on the second-row seat said with a kind smile. He was the Supreme Elder of the Ximen Clan, Ximen Bo.
“Come, take a seat.” He made a gesture toward two vacant seats beside him. It could be seen how highly he regarded Yun Lintian.
“Thank you, senior.” Yun Lintian bowed slightly and brought Ning Yue to the seats.
“Since everyone is here, let’s eat.” Ximen Shun, who sat in the highest seat, said. He was unhurried to talk with Yun Lintian at the moment.
During the meal, other members occasionally asked Yun Lintian a few questions, and Yun Lintian always responded politely. His polite and humble stance won everyone’s approval, and no one felt bad about him being treated with privilege anymore.
“Do you have any plans after joining the association, Alchemist Lin?” Ximen Shun asked.
“Please call me by my name directly, Patriarch Ximen.” Yun Lintian responded with a smile. “I wanted to join the association out of convenience. Afterward, I planned to travel around the Heavenhold Realm to gain experience. However, I haven’t decided on the next destination yet.”
“Then, I will call you Little Lin, and you can call me Uncle Ximen directly.” Ximen Shun said with an amiable smile. “The Great Zhou Kingdom is connected to the Great Xia Dynasty. I just got the news that there will be a pill-refining competition over there. The winner will be recruited into the Heavenhold Sect directly. You can go there to take a look.”
“Thank you for telling me this.” Yun Lintian replied politely.
Naturally, he wasn’t interested in such a boring competition. Let alone join the Heavenhold Sect. What he wanted to do right now was to contact his fourth sister after becoming a member of the Divine Alchemy Association.
As for what after, he would carefully think about it again. Perhaps there would be information about the remaining Beyond Heaven Relics.
Just as Ximen Shun was about to say something further, a servant suddenly walked into the hall and said. “Second Princess is coming, sir. Do you want to lead her here?”
“Oh? Why did she come here at this time?” Ximen Wu was puzzled.
The second princess, Zhou Ling’er, was considered his cousin as she was the daughter of Ximen Wu’s aunt. Normally, she wouldn’t come here if there was no important matter.
“Bring her here.” Ximen Shun said, and the servant quickly went out.
Soon, a beautiful young woman clad in a pale red robe walked into the hall. Her movement was elegant, exuding her nobility to the fullest. She was no other than Zhou Ling’er.
“Greetings, uncle and several elders. Ling’er came uninvited. Please forgive me.” Zhou Ling’er said softly.
“How could I blame you? Come, take a seat.” Ximen Shun said with a smile.
“Thank you, uncle.” Although she was the second princess of the kingdom, Zhou Ling’er wasn’t aloof and arrogant at all.
“What brings you here today, cousin?” Ximen Wu asked curiously.
Zhou Ling’er smiled. “I heard that you have invited a top alchemist over, and I came here to take a look.”
She turned to Yun Lintian and said politely. “Please forgive me for the abruptness. Are you Senior Lin?”
Yun Lintian cupped his fists and said. “Profound Pill Sect’s Lin Tian greets Princess Zhou.”
“Does her condition flare up again?” Ximen Shun suddenly asked with a serious expression.
Zhou Ling’er didn’t hide anything. “Yes, uncle. Mother’s condition is getting worse again. I’m afraid she can’t hold on any longer.”
She looked at Yun Lintian and asked. “May I know if Senior Lin can refine the Nine Souls Returning Pill?”
“Nine Souls Returning Pill…” Yun Lintian repeated in a low voice. He looked at her and asked. “Did your esteemed mother suffer from the Soul Decaying Poison?”
Zhou Ling’er’s eyes brightened up as she hurriedly replied. “Yes. Mother has indeed suffered from the Soul Decaying Poison.”
Yun Lintian frowned slightly. “If that’s the case, I don’t think the Nine Souls Returning Poison can help her.”
“What do you mean, Little Lin?” Ximen Shun asked in doubt.
“The Nine Souls Returning Pill could certainly treat the injury of the patient’s soul, but it would be impossible to remove the poison.” Yun Lintian said. “The Soul Rejuvenating Pill is needed.”
“Soul Rejuvenating Pill… That should be the Divine King rank pill.” Zhou Ling’er expression became solemn. She looked at Yun Lintian with hope as she asked. “I wonder if Senior Lin can refine it?”
“I can.” Yun Lintian replied truthfully. For him, even a Divine Emperor rank pill would only be a matter of spending his effort.
Before Zhou Ling’er could say anything further, Yun Lintian spoke first. “However, I wanted Princess Zhou to answer my questions truthfully first.”
Zhou Ling’er was taken aback slightly and quickly said. “Please ask away.”
“How many concubines the Great Zhou Emperor has?” Yun Lintian asked.
His question startled everyone in the hall.
Meanwhile, Ximen Shun seemed to think of something and silently watched Yun Lintian.
Zhou Ling’er didn’t seem to find anything wrong with it. She answered truthfully. “There are around two hundred concubines. My mother is the first concubine.”
“Then, please forgive me. I cannot help you with this.” Yun Lintian said apologetically.
“Why? Senior Lin can tell me the condition. I will try my best to satisfy you.” Zhou Ling’er was puzzled.
“It wasn’t a matter of remuneration.” Yun Lintian shook his head. “Let me tell you this way. The Soul Decaying Poison is a powerful poison that even a Divine King can’t resist. And it isn’t easy to find as well. A person who harmed your esteemed mother was capable enough to find this poison and even successfully poisoned her.”
He took a deep look at Zhou Ling’er and asked. “Please forgive me for saying this. Does Princess Zhou think I can protect myself against such a capable enemy that even the Great Zhou Emperor can’t deal with?”
