"It shouldn't be such a coincidence, and I recognize the clothing of the Mahagu tribe. This group of people definitely has no connection with the Mahagu tribe," Qing Yanjing said to Jiahe.

Jiahe didn't know whether Qing Yanjing was comforting herself or him.

"Forget it, we're already here, let's check out the teleportation array first. If all else fails, we can just teleport away," Gahe said.

Qing Yanjing nodded, agreeing with Jiahe's idea.

The two walked down the street, and people kept looking at them.

Qing Yanjing looked at Jiahe with some confusion and asked, "Is there something on my face?"

Jiahe's gaze fell on Qing Yanjing's serene and beautiful face, her fair skin as clear as jade.

Her large, amber eyes were bright and expressive, and her long eyelashes cast a small shadow on her face.

Her high, straight nose and moist, red lips complemented each other perfectly, making her face look like the most perfect creation of the Creator.

Jiahe was momentarily stunned, which made Qing Yanjing even more confused.

However, Gahe quickly came to his senses and picked out a silk scarf from a nearby shop.

"Cover your face, or someone might kidnap you to be their wife!" Jiahe said.

Qingyan gently ran her slender, pale fingers across her face, her pretty cheeks flushing slightly. She quickly took the silk scarf that Jiahe offered and wrapped it around her face.

Immediately, Qing Yanjing stared at Jiahe with her beautiful, watery eyes and asked, "What did you mean by 'bandit's wife' just now?"

Gah rolled his eyes at her and said, "You've never been out in the world before, have you? Don't you even understand what that means?"

Qing Yanjing glared at him with her beautiful eyes and said, "Don't look down on me."

Jiahe chuckled and said, "The term 'bandit's wife' refers to someone who, after I become a bandit king, takes you back to be my wife. That's what 'bandit's wife' means."

"Pah! You lecherous scoundrel!" Qing Yanjing scoffed.

Gah clicked his tongue and said, "You're the one who asked me to explain, and now you're turning around and scolding me?"

Qing Yanjing retorted, "But I didn't ask you to use me as an example."

Gah then added, "Do you think I want to marry you?"

Upon hearing Jiahe's words, Qing Yanjing's eyes widened immediately, and she angrily retorted, "What did you say?"

"Let's hurry, or we might miss it!" Gahe said, quickening his pace as he walked ahead.

Qing Yanjing snorted and then followed.

The teleportation array is located in the northwest of Bailing City, which is also the most prosperous area in the entire city. People from all continents trade and rest here.

When Jiahe and Qingyanjing arrived in front of the huge teleportation array, it was already surrounded by a group of armored guards.

Many people were discussing, "Who are these people? Why did they suddenly block the teleportation array?"

"That's really domineering! They just kicked everyone in line out!"

The people around them spoke with dissatisfaction, but no one dared to step forward, after all, this group of soldiers was emanating a powerful aura.

The weakest of them all was at the Divine Soul Realm, and these people looked like nothing more than front guards.

There must be even more important figures coming here.

"I wonder which important figure is about to travel?" Gahe said.

Qing Yanjing looked at Jiahe and said, "They should be a major family from the Hundred Spirits Continent."

Gah's mind raced, and he heard the voices of passersby nearby.

"Judging from their attire, these people should be from the Lu family of the Tianchen Continent. This family has many powerful figures; legend has it that the Lu family patriarch was a supreme Earthly expert!"

Those nearby exclaimed in surprise, "What? A Supreme Earthly Realm expert? How did someone from the Tianchen Continent end up in our Bailing City?"

"I heard it's because of the Great Thousand Pill Gathering, right? The Lu family of Tianchen Continent has produced a genius alchemist, and it seems that he has been noticed by the Ancient Grasslands!" someone said.

Some people asked, puzzled, "What does this have to do with them coming to our Bailing City?"

"Among the continents surrounding us, who doesn't know that our Hundred Spirits Plain possesses abundant resources for alchemy? The variety of demonic beasts and spiritual herbs is simply inexhaustible!"

"So you're saying that the Lu family has their eyes on the medicinal resources of our Hundred Spirits Plain, and that's why they're coming here to collect spiritual herbs to refine pills?"

"That should be it. It seems that His Majesty King Bailing has reached an agreement with the ancestor of the Lu family, allowing their people to come here to pick herbs. After all, the group of alchemists from the ancient grasslands have their eyes on that alchemy genius from the Lu family. Although he is only at the Tongtian realm, the pills he refines are so good that even supreme experts are envious!"

After hearing what these people said, Jiahe and Qing Yanjing finally understood. It seemed to be just a minor incident. Once the Lu family arrived, the teleportation array should be able to be used by others!

"What is this Great Thousand Pill Gathering?" Jiahe asked Qing Yanjing, recalling the term mentioned by someone next to him earlier.

Qing Yanjing said, "In the vast world, alchemists are a special group. They also tend to band together. There are two great alchemy holy lands, which have become places that countless alchemists from the vast world want to enter."

"One is the Pill God Clan. Legend has it that the people of this race are born with a natural affinity for fire and medicine, possessing a natural ability to refine medicine. It is said that this is because their ancestor was the Pill God of the Great Thousand World, who was able to refine the legendary sacred medicine!"

"This race has never recruited alchemists from the Great Thousand Worlds in the past. Their traditions are passed down only within the race, so their numbers are small, but each one is a top-tier alchemy genius!"

After hearing Qing Yanjing's explanation of the Pill God Clan, Jiahe immediately thought of the Medicine Emperor's lineage and the Medicine Clan on the Dou Qi Continent!

The Medicine Clan back then was similar to the Pill God Clan, stuck in their ways and relying on the power of the Medicine Emperor's bloodline, they looked down on other alchemists on the Dou Qi Continent!

Unfortunately, the Medicine Clan ultimately paid a heavy price, and other alchemists dealt them a severe blow.

This is what made the Medicine Clan realize that there are always higher realms and more capable people!

Qing Yanjing continued, "Besides the Pill God Clan, there is another ancient grassland force that is quite special. They have no lineage; they are just an alliance of rogue alchemists."

"A long time ago, it was just a small force, but after years of development, the power of the Ancient Grasslands has grown stronger and stronger, and now it is showing signs of surpassing the Dan God Clan!"

"The Great Thousand Pill Gathering was created by alchemists from the ancient grasslands. Originally intended to allow alchemists from the ancient grasslands to compete on a stage, it gradually expanded to the Great Thousand World, and now even the Pill God Clan has joined!"

"Therefore, the Great Thousand Pill Gathering has gradually become a grand event in the Great Thousand World. Each time it is held, it attracts countless alchemists to participate and compete for the final prize."

"Becoming the champion of the Alchemy Tournament will not only bring fame throughout the vast world, but also rewards prepared by top alchemists from the ancient grasslands and the Alchemy God Clan." (End of Chapter)
