Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

night.

Jiang Cheng refined another batch of pills.

After getting started with alchemy and giving full play to one's subjective initiative, a batch of pills made with ten portions of medicinal materials would at least be of intermediate quality, and about half of them would be of high quality.

Therefore, although the experience bar has doubled compared to when I first started.

However, after making a furnace of pills, the experience bar can increase by 8%. Based on six furnaces of pills per day, you can reach a proficient level after one or two days.

When Gu Changkong heard the news at night, he was naturally very happy. After all, he had thought that Jiang Cheng would progress very quickly, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

The two of them talked and laughed on their way back.

This scene made a person hiding in the darkness in the distance frown.

This person was none other than the middle-aged man next to Gu Changjun, Huang Xing.

He knew Gu Changjun's character. If he didn't complete the task as soon as possible, his future days would not be easy. So after making some preparations, he rushed here from the inner city and waited here.

Now he finally saw Jiangcheng, but what he didn't expect was that Gu Changkong was right next to him.

If it was someone else, he would just kill him directly, but it was different for Gu Changkong. He had to act with caution. Although Gu Changkong was not a master, it could not be ruled out that the other party had something that could hurt a master.

He was restricted in his actions, but the other party was unrestrained. If he was not careful, he could suffer a great loss.

So, in the end, Huang Xing did not take action. He watched the two figures disappear from his sight, with a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

The central area was guarded by an array, so even if he was carrying items that could change his aura, he would be noticed the moment he entered. Although those people were unable to do anything to him given their strength, he did not want to make such a big fuss unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Just wait until tomorrow."

He secretly thought.

That guy will come here again tomorrow morning.

He just didn't believe that Gu Changkong could follow him.

If you don't follow, that'll be the time for him to strike!

After parting with Gu Changkong, Jiang Cheng entered the house and just sat down when his cell phone rang.

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment, took out his cell phone and saw an unfamiliar number on it.

"?"

Curious as he was, he still answered the phone.

"Hey?"

"Is it Brother Jiang?"

An old man's voice sounded very kind.

"Mr. Qin?"

Jiang Cheng asked tentatively.

"Hahaha."

Old Qin laughed heartily, "Brother Jiang actually still remembers me. This is rare, rare."

"Mr. Qin, how could I not remember it?"

Jiang Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The other party could be said to be the first master-level expert he had ever met. How could he not be impressed?

However, he was not surprised that the other party called him.

Moreover, he could guess that during these few days, the other party must have used his private power to inquire about him.

Hearing this, Old Qin laughed again, and then asked with concern: "Brother Jiang, how have you been recently? I heard that you are wanted by the law enforcement bureau throughout the city. What's going on?"

"That's a long story."

"It's okay, take your time." Old Qin was very polite, much more polite than when they first met. Jiang Cheng also briefly told the story again.

"That's what happened."

Old Qin was a little surprised.

"Yes."

Jiang Cheng nodded, "But right now I'm hiding in the black market. As long as I don't go out, it won't be a big problem."

"But you can't hide in there forever, right?"

Mr. Qin asked back.

"What good ideas does Mr. Qin have?"

"Of course there is, ahem," Old Qin coughed twice, "Little brother, do you still remember that you told me that you wanted to join us?"

"Of course I remember. After I came back, I contacted that person, but he said there was a test. Even if I passed the test, it didn't guarantee that my family and I would arrive at your base safely. I had no choice but to join the black market."

After saying that, Jiang Cheng sighed.

"That boy is a pig!"

Old Qin immediately started cursing, "Brother Jiang, I've already scolded that kid severely. He is more likely to cause trouble than to help. When you see him later, he will apologize to you. You can beat him up if you want, just don't beat him to death."

Jiang Cheng smiled when he heard that.

That is to say, the other party only said this after knowing that he has this ability.

Of course, there are some things that just need to be known in everyone's heart and there is no need to speak them out loud.

"Mr. Qin, so you called me today to invite me to join you?"

"Yes, Brother Jiang."

Qin Lao was stunned and said hurriedly: "Little brother, I know you are worried that your family will be in danger on the road. Don't worry, I will come personally to escort you and your family to our base. If you are still worried, I will bring another master with me to ensure that nothing goes wrong!
As for the treatment you will receive after arriving here, it will definitely be the best. Moreover, we have no shortage of cultivation resources here, so you don’t need to do anything. Whatever you want, someone will naturally deliver it to you.”

"Thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Qin. But right now, I can't leave here."

Jiang Cheng sighed.

I haven't said anything final.

Because his current backer is Gu Changkong, but Gu Changkong's status in the Gu family is not high, which makes him feel a sense of crisis.

When Mr. Qin heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

What he was most afraid of hearing was Jiang Cheng’s flat refusal.

But that didn't happen, which means there's still room for both sides to talk.

"Right now, what's going on?"

he asked curiously.

"Right now I'm trying to refine the Refreshing Pill, and the black market manager has been a great help to me. Without him, my pill refining skills wouldn't have been able to improve so quickly, and this time..." Jiang Cheng did not hide anything and told him what happened after he came here.

On the one hand, Old Qin also knew most of these things.

On the other hand, the other party is still a good person and has a sense of justice, but he is a little vicissitudes of life and no longer passionate.

"I understand."

After hearing this, Old Qin's opinion of Jiang Cheng increased a bit.

I regretted it even more in my heart. If I had known that day would come, I would have taken Jiang Cheng away with me.

As for his family, couldn't he just go into the city with them? If Jiang Cheng did anything wrong, could it escape the eyes of a master like him?

But at that time, he didn't take Jiang Cheng too seriously in his heart. He felt that it would be better to bring such a person back to the base, but it didn't matter if he couldn't.

Now when I think back on it, I regret it so much. (End of this chapter)
