Chapter 35 You Have To Read All These Books!
Su Chen was stunned.
"Are there only two disciples here?"
Xiao Yaotong replied, "Yes, it's just you and Senior Sister Bai, and then there's me, a medicine boy."
"Then why is this place so big?"
Su Chen couldn't help but sigh at how wealthy the Veiled Spirit Sect was.
Xiao Yaotong said, "Senior Sister Bai has read many medical books here. As the next disciple to enter, of course you have to read them all!"
Suddenly, Su Chen regretted agreeing to let Leng Wushuang in.
Reading all these books would be the death of him.
At that moment, there was a commotion outside the alchemy pavilion.
Xiao Yaotong's face changed.
"Senior Sister Bai is back!"
Su Chen turned his head and saw a figure walking straight into the alchemy pavilion.
It was a woman, dressed lively and cute, full of youthful energy. Judging by her age, Bai Weiwei was about the same age as Tang Ziyuan, probably the youngest among the senior sisters.
Bai Weiwei walked into the alchemy pavilion and then came to Su Chen's side.
Xiao Yaotong asked, "Senior Sister, you're back!"
"Mhmm."
Bai Weiwei looked at Su Chen and asked, "You're Su Chen?"
Su Chen nodded.
Bai Weiwei suddenly leaned in, her cute face just a few centimeters away from Su Chen's face.
"You're not bad-looking!"
Su Chen was stunned. This senior sister's personality was too cheerful.
"Do you know that I'm the seventh senior sister?"
"I know!"
"That's good. Just based on your looks, you pass. But I'm not that shallow of a person."
"If you want to be my disciple, it won't be that easy."
Su Chen looked up.
"Senior sister, I didn't come here just to be your disciple. I also want to cultivate in the alchemy pavilion."
"Ah, the Sect Master told me."
Then, Bai Weiwei glanced at Su Chen.
"Do you know how to refine medicine?"
"A little."
"Good, then follow me to cultivate!"
Bai Weiwei said, then turned to look at Su Chen.
"First, finish reading the books on the first floor!"
"..."
As expected, there was no escape.
Su Chen asked, "Senior sister, can I read a little less?"
"No."
"After seven days, I'll come to check on you."
"If you can't pass the assessment, you'll be punished."
After speaking, Bai Weiwei left.
Su Chen looked at Xiao Yaotong in distress.
Xiao Yaotong sighed.
"There's no way, just read!"
Su Chen asked, "Is this punishment severe?"
"It's very severe. You have to accompany Senior Sister in refining medicine!"
"Refining medicine? How is that a punishment?"
Although refining medicine was a difficult process, it required a lot of effort from the alchemist.
Therefore, refining medicine usually required many alchemists to work together.
Xiao Yaotong looked at Su Chen and said softly.
"You'll know when you refine medicine with Senior Sister!"
Meanwhile, in Chen Yuwei's courtyard.
The golden dragon inside the Dragon Spring Sword woke up from its slumber, only to find that there was no one in the courtyard.
Usually, Su Chen would be practicing in the courtyard. Why wasn't he here today?
The golden dragon was puzzled.
The courtyard was empty, with no one meditating or practicing. The golden dragon couldn't help but feel bored.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the courtyard.
Chen Yuwei sat beside the stone table and touched her belly.
Inside her belly, she carried the crystallization of her and Su Chen.
Chen Yuwei looked around the empty yard and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
In just three months of being together, Chen Yuwei had already gotten used to having Su Chen around.
Now that Su Chen suddenly left, Chen Yuwei felt a bit out of sorts.
"Could it be that I've fallen in love with Su Chen?"
Chen Yuwei's expression was filled with melancholy.
Then, she shook her head abruptly.
"No, it's impossible. How could I fall in love with a cultivator?"
Jin Long could see clearly from within the Dragon Spring Sword.
It was obvious that Chen Yuwei was showing signs of affection.
He sighed.
"That kid has quite the luck with love!"
"Wait!"
Jin Long suddenly snapped back to reality.
"That kid left? What should I do?"
Although Jin Long seemed to despise Su Chen on the surface, he knew that there must be a reason why the old man entrusted him to Su Chen.
"No, I have to go find him!"
"I think I heard Chen Yuwei say where Su Chen went just now, it seems to be the Alchemy Pavilion, right?"
Jin Long thought to himself and activated his spiritual power, flying straight out.
At this moment, Chen Yuwei did not notice that the seemingly ordinary long sword that had been stuck in the willow tree suddenly flew out.
Then it disappeared into the air.
In the Alchemy Pavilion, Su Chen held a book, his mind feeling heavy.
This book on alchemy was too boring.
Moreover, the meaning in it was too dry and difficult to understand.
Su Chen had been reading for a long time and could only understand a part of its content.
But fortunately, Su Chen had his own Alchemy Heart Sutra, which was much easier to understand compared to these medical books.
The little medicine boy had already left, and Su Chen was almost falling asleep.
At this moment, a sharp sword aura suddenly rushed into the Alchemy Pavilion.
Then, the Dragon Spring Sword was inserted straight into the chopping board in front of Su Chen.
Jin Long's voice came into Su Chen's mind.
"Kid, it's impossible for you to get rid of me!"
Su Chen saw that the Dragon Spring Sword had come on its own and felt relieved.
He said indifferently, "Oh, you found out!"
"You!"
Jin Long was speechless.
As a divine spirit, when had he ever been treated like this?
Those cultivators all begged him to possess them.
But this Su Chen didn't care at all.
If it weren't for the old man entrusting the Dragon Spring Sword to Su Chen, Jin Long would have wanted to slap Su Chen and find someone else to possess.
"Never mind, I'll stay here these days. The spiritual energy here is abundant anyway."
Su Chen opened his eyes with a dead fish-like gaze and asked, "Aren't you guilty of leeching off other people's spiritual energy every day?"
"Wherever I am, the spiritual energy will follow me."
Su Chen shook his head and ignored Jin Long.
He looked at the towering books around him and felt troubled.
How could he finish reading so many medical books?
Seven days later, Su Chen woke up from his sleep. These days, he had been reading books and his head was throbbing. He hadn't even had time to cultivate.
Suddenly, the little medicine boy hurriedly walked over and shouted, "Su Chen, Su Chen, wake up!"
Su Chen rubbed his eyes.
"Sister is here!"
Su Chen opened his eyes and saw a cute woman wearing a light red skirt and a ponytail appearing in the Alchemy Pavilion.
Upon closer inspection, this woman was none other than Bai Weiwei.
Su Chen was stunned.
Oh no, he hadn't finished reading his medical books yet!
