Yang Chen didn’t have time to deal with Xiao Tian for the time being. However, he still attached him to a weapon. Xiao Tian’s incarnation would always be the appropriate size and shape that best suits his hand, enabling him to use him whenever he pleases.

Gui Shanyou also found many high-level magic weapon fragments from the portal of the Dacheng realm. These pieces were favourite foods for Xiao Tian, every piece of broken skin could give it enjoyment for a long time.

Looking at Xiao Tian bursting with energy, Yang Chen’s heart moved again. There were still a few things in the treasure house of the Dragon Palace that have not been collected. Now Yang Chen’s cultivation base had also improved, and Xiao Tian had completely absorbed the dragon qi. Was it possible to consider going to the Dragon Palace again to collect the rest of the things?

However, for the time being, Yang Chen still suppressed this idea. The first few things in the hands of Yang Chen had not been completely collected until now. Secondly, Yang Chen knew in his heart that he always let Xiao Tian exceed his own limits to absorb the dragon qi, his growth had not been so good, this must stop.

Even so, the growth of Xiao Tian gave Yang Chen a small surprise. The magic treasure pieces he absorbed spiritual power from were thrown away because they had no recycling value. Although the materials were still there, they had been mixed and sacrificial refined in various ways. It was now more difficult to track them than trying to go to heaven.

However, the strength of Xiao Tian made Yang Chen somewhat stunned. After Xiao Tian used the magic weapon fragments, there was a miraculous general change in their appearances. The materials were still mixed, but the trace of sacrificial refining had been completely eliminated, as if swallowed by Xiao Tian itself.

There were no magic fragments with even a trace of sacrificial refining, thus, these materials could be refined and separated in many ways and become the top materials that could be used. It should be known that this part of the material was basically produced in the portal of the Yuanying and the Dacheng realm, its level was not low.

Of course, this advantage, Yang Chen had not yet intended to tell anyone, but he did to let Shangguan Feng pay attention and collect some magic weapon fragments from the Yuanying and the Dacheng realm portals. In the long history of cultivators, he didn’t know how many such things have been piled up in various unknown places so far. If someone has the heart for it, they could collect countless such things.

For Yang Chen, these countless magic weapon pieces meant countless high-grade refining materials. Yang Chen’s Yin-Yang five elements flying swords were just lacking all kinds of top materials for their sacrificial refining. That was simply like getting cheap raw material delivered to his door step.

Speaking of it, this time Xiao Tian also had an upgrade. Yang Chen was happy, he had piled a lot of magic weapon pieces around Xiao Tian. Of course, the most important ones were flying swords; Blood Phantom Vine flying sword and First Wood sword embryo. Xiao Tian’s body was now on the First Wood sword embryo. On the top, it was playing with the Blood Demon Vine flying sword in its mouth.

Yang Chen wanted to leave, but some people didn’t let him. After making up his mind to go to the Monster Race’s domain, he tried to report the matter of his departure to the Palace Master, but he told him that the Green Jade Immortal Island Master had come to visit the Pure Yang Palace. Specifically indicating that Yang Chen must accompany her, there was some business matter to discuss.

The arrival of Green Jade Immortal Island Master was a grand matter and the distinguished guest was to be received in a similarly grand manner at the Pure Yang Palace. Not to mention the Pure Yang Palace, even among the top two sects in the rankings, which one had a history of receiving a distinguished guest with a similar rank as of the Island Master?

However, what surprised Yang Chen was that the Palace Master had told him that the Island Master’s visit was this time, a secret one. Thus, it did not involve fanciful reception. Also, Yang Chen should not divulge this information.

The other party pointed out that Yang Chen should accompany her, there was some business to deal in. He could only obey the instructions. However, what made Yang Chen strange was that, in addition to the two elders of Green Jade Immortal Island, there was another companion, Shi Shanshan.

Yang Chen knew the two elders. One was Yan Huafeng, a master of the Dacheng realm, and the leader of the Great Calamity of Demonic Art. The other was Guan Yuanying, a Yuanying realm ancestor. In the past, he chased Yang Chen for a month in the sea, and later turned to a friend from an enemy.

The Island Master’s appearance was like a thirty years old woman. The smile on her face seemed very bright. If one didn’t know her identity, anyone would take her as a woman full of optimism about life. You wouldn’t think that she was one of the leaders of the several major Dao sects.

Except for the Island Master, the people who came were acquaintances, who tended to be favourable towards the Pure Yang Palace. The secretive nature of this was a bit strange. However, since the other party had something to do with business, of course, it was necessary to bring people who will not cause misunderstanding with the Pure Yang Palace. From this point of view, it was quite normal.

“This old person is going to have something to discuss with the Palace Master. You, young people still have a lot to exchange.”

Unexpectedly, after seeing Yang Chen, the Island Master only looked at Yang Chen carefully and pushed Shi Shanshan out to let her get along with Yang Chen alone.

This gesture seemed to support Shi Shanshan and Yang Chen in their own capacity, but the whole hidden action was a bit strange. Making Yang Chen very confused. He didn’t understand the motive behind it.

Shi Shanshan was frosty in front of outsiders, but in front of these several seniors, she still had a respectful look. Listening to the Island Master’s tease, her face shown a rare blush. The glamorous face with a shyness to boot, compared to the Island Master and several elders was higher by many points.

“Yang Chen, you take Fairy Shi to go to the Meishan Mountain, keep her entertained.”

The Palace Master also commanded. The meaning behind the smile on his face couldn’t be seen through clearly. Whether it was just for mere etiquette or was it optimism about Yang Chen and Shi Shanshan’s relationship.

What could Yang Chen say, he could only leave with Shi Shanshan after a greeting. It was also funny to think about it. He and Shi Shanshan were already over 100-years-old but were still young people in the eyes of their elders.

Shi Shanshan’s face was restored to her usual frostiness. Because the Palace Master had iterated that this was a secret matter and any information about the Island Master was not broadcasted, so Yang Chen directly put Shi Shanshan into the shuttle, and soon flew to a high cliff. After arriving above it, they came out.

“I haven’t tasted the tea you cooked since a long time. It just happened to be so that my tea leaves had matured, becoming much better. Would you like to try them?”

Yang Chen looked at Shi Shanshan, who stood on the cliff. Then looked at the mountains under the cliff. Then laughed and told, “I got a nice Spirit Spring.”

“From the Blue Cloud Sect auction?”

Shi Shanshan turned her head and suddenly asked, “You bought it with Little Xue?”

“Yeah?”

Yang Chen did not expect that Shi Shanshan knew of the matters in the Blue Cloud Sect so clearly. But he did not feel surprised and just nodded, “At that time, I was buying it for alchemy. I’ve tasted it myself. The best thing to use it for is wine and tea brewing.”

Seeing that Yang Chen admitted to it, the frost on Shi Shanshan’s face visibly reduced. Yang Chen laid out a complete tea set with a sway of his hands.

Yang Chen’s movements were not slow. The profound spirit furnace quickly appeared in his hands, and the sprouts of the old tea trees that used the spiritual powers were also picked up in a short time. Then they were hung in the profound spirit furnace.

If anyone knew that Yang Chen actually used the Profound Spirit Furnace to match the Yin-Yang Burning Heavenly Fire just to fry tea leaves, it would definitely exacerbate Yang Chen’s wasteful temperament.

But Shi Shanshan did not blame him at all but rather had a look of anticipation. She had no other good food, but she could brew delicious tea. It was rare for Yang Chen to have a common interest with her and his tea-making technique was not unusual. It let her look forward to his better-looking tea.

The effect of the Yin-Yang Burning Heavenly Fire was not generally good, and Yang Chen had slightly added some Seventh Metal spiritual power to take care of Shi Shanshan’s taste. Even the process of frying was adapted to Shi Shanshan’s metal attributed spirit root. After tasting, one would feel an endless aftertaste.

The water was of course the spirit spring that Yang Chen bought from the Blue Cloud Sect auction site. As for the work of cooking tea, he made Shi Shanshan do it herself. Looking at the elegant and incomparably beautiful woman’s movements while skilfully brewing tea; every move exuding fresh and refined beauty, being alluring at every instance. The tea had not yet been tasted, still it felt like he had already tasted its deliciousness.

“Taste my craft!”

Although Shi Shanshan was cold and proud, but in front of Yang Chen whether it was action or language, a feeling of a wife serving her husband was shown. She even served the tea to Yang Chen with both hands. Though her face did not carry a too intimate expression.

The hot tea would make any person feel the warmth in the whole body. With the exclusively mixed Yin-Yang Burning Heavenly Fire and Seventh Metal spirit power made a person to forget everything.

Even Yang Chen, the initiator of this event, felt such enjoyment, not to mention that even Shi Shanshan was intoxicated. This time, the tea leaves brewing process clearly showed that Yang Chen’s control after his cultivation base had improved. The seventh metal was good, and the fire was unbelievable.

The hard feeling thing hidden in the tea was like a metal, it was the infamous skill of Shi Shanshan. While drinking the tea, the spiritual power of the whole body became stimulated and started moving feverishly. The short moment of enjoyment could almost match the effect of One Heavenly Circulation.

The beauty of Shi Shanshan suddenly lit up. She did not expect that Yang Chen’s tea was so different than before. It was just delicious before, but now it was even affecting her cultivation. It did not have just the delicious taste anymore.

Looking at Shi Shanshan’s amazed eyes, Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh. The reason why he prepared all those things was that he wanted to force such a reaction from Shi Shanshan. Sure enough, the purpose of surprising Shi Shanshan had been achieved, Yang Chen was no longer restrained and laughed out.

“How has my craft improved?”

Yang Chen had a mind to show off and asked with a smile.

Looking at Yang Chen’s proud face, Shi Shanshan only gave him a smile, which was the reward. Soon she recovered her frosty expression. If Yang Chen didn’t know from his several contacts with her that Shi Shanshan did give him a high praise. Maybe he would have misunderstood that she was not satisfied.

It happened to be the sunset, watching the dying sun slowly falling, neither of them had any interest in talking. One person, a Jade cup, a small mouthful of taste, untasted by all others, it seemed that even the mood was tranquil.

“These are well collected. When you have time, you can drink more.”

Yang Chen cooked more than just for this tea, much more, then he directly sealed them in a Jade box, sealed it with a symbol seal and gave it to Shi Shanshan.

“Thank you!”

Shi Shanshan was not polite at all and collected it.

“Why should you say such a word between us.”

Yang Chen said very casually. But immediately realized that he said something wrong, then want to take it back, only to miss the timing.

“Also, between you and me, I don’t have to thank you.”

Shi Shanshan took it seriously and her mouth shown a happy expression.

Yang Chen couldn’t help but sigh again. When he faced this beautiful female, he would always be so unsettled and careless with his words causing such misunderstandings. Could it be that he couldn’t resist the beauty of this female? Or was it because of the prestige of Shi Shanshan’s later generation that he must pay attention to? He could not think it clearly.

However, there was a point that Yang Chen couldn’t deny it. He liked to sit in a place like this with Shi Shanshan very casually. He didn’t talk much, just watching the surrounding scenery and drinking delicious tea.

He didn’t know how, whether it was fighting or leisure, it seemed that both Yang Chen and Shi Shanshan had a silent tacit understanding.

Shi Shanshan also enjoyed this atmosphere. She hadn’t talked for a long time. Until the night’s colour was drooping, she sighed and said, “Yang Chen, I told the island master of the matter last time.”

“En”

Yang Chen gave a cry but did not say anything. Shi Shanshan was originally a person from the Green Jade Immortal Island. If she told the island master of her own whereabouts, what was the fuss?

“That batch of ten thousand years Spirit Medicine, Island Master also knew.”

Shi Shanshan said another thing.

“Well, that is yours.”

Yang Chen said this sentence, but it was a little more, once again acknowledging the ownership of Shi Shanshan. This sentence said so much more, answering all the questions Shi Shanshan imagined.

She thought that Yang Chen would be a little surprised and even uneasy, but she didn’t think that he would have no reaction at all. Shi Shanshan understood that he really regarded those things as hers and never thought about taking them back. This feeling of being trusted seemed to be different from the sect.

“This time, I want to ask you something.”

Shi Shanshan said slightly in a whisper.

“What?”

Yang Chen still asked in a calm tone.

“The Questioning Inner Heart Pill’s raw materials are actually those ten thousand years Spirit Medicine.”

Shi Shanshan’s eyes stared at the ground and didn’t look at his side, carefully masked, she continued, “Can you help out? Use my medicinal ingredients to refine a batch of Questioning Inner Heart Pills?”
