Cultivating immortality through titles, without bottlenecks.

"what……"

A piercing scream rang out, and Feng Yixing's cheek was flushed red while blood gushed from his shoulder.

His pitiful condition prompted onlookers to sigh in sympathy.

However, Wei Zhong remained calm, his eyes slightly narrowed, which made Feng Yixing feel a chill, and he couldn't even utter a harsh word.

"Throw it out!"

Ding Mo gave the order, and several cultivators immediately stepped forward to stop the bleeding for Feng Yixing and dragged him out of Songlinfang.

Wei Zhong glanced around at the crowd, his fists clenched as he surveyed half of the area:

"My name is Wei Zhong, and I am honored to be the sixth true disciple of Master Yang, following him to learn alchemy..."

"This shop was opened by my parents. I am very grateful for your patronage."

"Starting today, Yangqi San is 20% off, limited to 100 doses! We cordially invite you to come!"

"Master Wei Xiaodan is truly magnanimous!"

"...A truly magnanimous alchemist!"

After making way, Wei Zhong and Ding Mo entered the shop, and then went into the inner room with their parents, leaving Qin Shuhan and a few shop assistants to deal with a large group of customers.

Inner room,

Wei Cichen patted Wei Zhong on the shoulder:

"Zhong'er, you've become quite bold these past few days!"

Wei Cichen laughed heartily, seemingly quite approving of Wei Zhong's actions.

Only Zhou Ninglu's expression was solemn:

"He certainly has the guts, but such actions not only embarrass Feng Yixing but also cripple him. I'm afraid this villain..."

"What's there to be afraid of? Its cultivation level was forcibly increased by elixirs anyway. Losing an arm, what trouble are you worried it will cause?"

The cultivator's physical body is of utmost importance, with its meridians crisscrossing and connected to cultivation techniques and various spells.

With one arm severed, many techniques will be unable to be performed due to the loss of meridians.

In severe cases, one may never make any progress in their cultivation throughout their entire life.

With one strike, Wei Zhong completely crippled Feng Yixing.

Wei Zhong coughed lightly twice:

"Mother, don't worry. He's just a nobody, Feng Yixing. What if he brings the entire Wei family?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Mo also smiled slightly:

"Fellow Daoists, what Junior Brother says is absolutely right."

"Now that Junior Brother has joined Master Yang's school, he is a member of my Qingya Sect."

"You two need not worry about the threat from the Wei family. I will send people from the market to patrol the surrounding area. If any members of the Wei family appear, they will be driven away."

Hearing this, the two felt a little relieved.

After comforting the two elders and confirming that Wei Cichen had not suffered any losses at Feng Yixing's hands, Wei Zhong left with Ding Mo and went to their post in Songlinfang.

"Thank you very much, Fourth Senior Brother!"

The latter shook his head and smiled:

"What are you saying, junior brother?"

"Since we are fellow disciples, we are as close as brothers. It is the duty of a senior brother to protect his junior brother from wind and rain."

"Furthermore, it's still because my senior brother didn't handle this matter well enough..."

After listening to his account, Wei Zhong learned that the Qingya Sect's prestige had recently declined significantly.

With the death of Sect Master Yin and the escape of another late-stage Qi Refining elder from the siege, the entire Qingya Sect is currently relying on Yang Jingting to maintain its prestige.

Such weakness has attracted the attention of various forces who have set their sights on Songlinfang.

Even the major families that had previously cooperated with Qingya Sect were trying to wrest more market share from them.

"If it weren't for the fact that Master is the only top-grade alchemist in the vicinity, these people would probably have pounced on him like hungry wolves long ago, since they need his help."

For cultivators, the most important thing is undoubtedly cultivation.

Whether it's highway robbery or plundering, it's all for resources, and at its root, it all boils down to the word "cultivation".

However, there are even more helpful methods for cultivation, namely elixirs.

Cultivation is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships and worldly wisdom.

Showing goodwill to a master alchemist is a principle that any practitioner should follow.

"I'm busy suppressing the unrest in the market. As for your fifth senior brother, he left the market long ago to appease those small and medium-sized families."

Only after truly becoming a disciple did Wei Zhong realize that the situation of Qingya Sect had collapsed to this extent.

Seemingly noticing the worry on Wei Zhong's face, Ding Mo patted Wei Zhong on the shoulder:

"But Sixth Brother, don't worry. After this incident of making an example of someone, those people will probably not dare to make any big moves again."

"My junior brother's reputation has also been fully established thanks to this opportunity."

Wei Zhong shook his head slightly:

"Fourth Senior Brother, please don't make fun of me."

As the two were talking, a burly cultivator strode closer, simultaneously letting out a "hiss" sound:

"Xiao Mo, it still won't work if I'm not in the market!"

The familiar voice rang out, causing Ding Mo to turn around and smile:

"Don't get cocky, big guy. Sixth Brother is much stronger than you."

Wei Zhong turned his head and saw his fifth senior brother walking in from outside the door.

Liao Yuran, Yang Jingting's fifth disciple.

This man was extremely robust, even taller and stronger than his senior brother Wu Ang, and with his thick black fur, he resembled a standing bear.

The other person immediately patted Wei Zhong on the shoulder:

"I have learned what happened. Junior brother did well this time and did not tarnish the reputation of my Qingya Sect."

Then he took out a storage bag and casually tossed it to Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong picked it up and looked at it, but felt that the storage bag was inexplicably familiar.

"When I returned, I happened to see Feng Yixing leaving, so I concealed my identity..."

Needless to say, this storage bag must belong to Feng Yixing.

"Ding Mo, you went too far. I wanted to vent my anger for my sixth junior brother, but I couldn't bring myself to do it, for fear of being beaten to death by that guy."

Ding Mo rolled his eyes and said to Wei Zhong:

"Junior brother, consider this storage bag as an apology from my senior brother and me. This trouble was caused by our lack of thoroughness."

"where……"

Wei Zhong declined, but couldn't persuade his two senior brothers, so he had no choice but to put the storage bag away.

The three shifted their topic, gradually moving towards the path of cultivation.

"Master's alchemy skills are unparalleled, but we two have limited talent and our hearts are not in it, so it is difficult for us to learn the essence."

"Now that you, Sixth Junior Brother, are following Master in alchemy, you must cherish this opportunity and not follow the example of the two of us."

After saying that, the two of them each took out a copy of their alchemy experience.

"Master stands high above, so the problems of us disciples may not be seen by the other party."

"Junior brother, you can use our experiences as a reference..."

"Thank you both, senior brothers!"

Leave Songlinfang and return to Qingyamen.

Wei Zhong took out a storage bag and two booklets, and couldn't help but mutter:

"Is this the advantage of having connections?"

This background is far superior to that of the so-called Wei family's main branch.

After all, the Wei family has many members, but there are only a handful of direct disciples of the Qingya Sect.

"Moreover, that old man Wei's cultivation level is no match for Master's..."

Wei Zhong muttered to himself as he erased the mark on the storage bag.

My spiritual sense probed into it and I was able to see the small space.

"Ten low-grade spirit stones, one magic sword, and all other miscellaneous items?"

"What kind of life did Feng Yixing lead in the Wei family?"

"Everyone says that Wei Xianjun is a strict tigress when it comes to her husband, and now it seems that's true."

Wei Zhong continued searching and found a small booklet among a pile of miscellaneous items.

"what?"

Upon taking it out, one can see the three large characters "Gathering Qi Technique".
