“Who wouldn’t know about such major news?” Xu Fan said with a laugh, and then led the two of them to the guest pavilion.

At this moment, Wang Yulun took out a large food box from his storage ring, from which he retrieved four hot dishes, four cold dishes, and two soups, in total, ten dishes.

Murong Qian’er then took out a jug of Spirit Wine.

“This is food cooked by the master chef of Drunken Immortal Tower, and the wine is their finest, ‘Drunken in Clouds’.”

“Am I right?” Xu Fan said, looking at the two of them with a smile.

“You’ve made progress. I taught you so much before, and all you knew was to bring demonic beast meat and make me cook it myself.”

“You’ve grown capable. Who taught you?” Xu Fan said, squinting at Wang Yulun. This meal was definitely not his idea.

Wang Yulun scratched his head and sheepishly chuckled. He had indeed planned to bring some demonic beast meat and let Xu Fan do the cooking, but Murong Qian’er had stopped him.

So they’d bought a table full of dishes and Spirit Wine from the best pavilion in the Outer Sect.

Xu Fan put a piece of meat in his mouth and began to savor it slowly.

“Out with it, what’s the matter?”

I, Xu Fan, don’t eat free lunches.

“The thing is, Brother Xu…” Wang Yulun started, somewhat embarrassed.

“We were out on a mission a while ago, and we ran into a 9th Layer Soul-devouring Beast at the Qi Cultivating stage.”

“Although Qian’er and I escaped quickly, she was still affected by the aura of the beast, and she’s been struggling to sleep.”

“She always feels the presence of some specter, urging her to find the Soul-devouring Beast.”

“So we came here to see if you have a solution,” Wang Yulun said in a flattering tone.

Xu Fan gave Wang Yulun a reproachful look, then made a hand gesture.

After a series of complex secret hand seals, A bright, purifying light appeared above Xu Fan’s head, which fell over Murong Qian’er’s head.

‘Bright Light Purification’

Murong Qian’er felt a sense of relief all over her, and black smoke started to seep out of her body.

Xu Fan nonchalantly blasted the black smoke with a fireball, annihilating it.

“Shameless, you, a fifth-stage Qi cultivator, were chased by a Soul-devouring Beast, and even let your wife get hurt,” Xu Fan said resentfully.

“That’s a 9th Layer Qi Cultivator!” yelled Wang Yulun.

“And it still has to die.”

It was at this moment that Murong Qian’er came back to reality.

“Brother Xu, have you mastered the purification technique?”

She knew that only by comprehension of the purification technique at its highest state could the anomalies in the soul be purged.

“Oh, I just casually practice it, and didn’t expect to reach high-level so quickly,” Xu Fan casually said. Typically, it took him fifteen days to master a technique.

“Brother Xu is amazing,” Murong Qian’er now truly believes her man’s words.

“Quickly eat the dishes, or they will get cold soon.”

After a satisfying meal, Murong Qian’er packed the dishes and chopsticks from the table back into the stone box, then started chatting with the two of them, looking very virtuous.

“Brother Xu, will you be going to the Sect’s Secret Realm this time?”

“With Brother Xu’s combat power, you will definitely reap a lot,” Wang Yulun said.

“No, it’s too dangerous. Is living a peaceful life not good enough?” Xu Fan shook his head, he avoids places where the chances of a fight were higher.

“Brother Xu, are you really not going? I heard that the legacies of Great Power Cultivators are in there.”

“Previously, a Refining Master’s handwritten notes were found in the Secret Realm, which also recorded many lost Runes.”

Upon hearing this news, Xu Fan became interested because to become an excellent Refining Grandmaster, the reserve of various runes was indispensable.

A qualified Refining Grandmaster should master at least over a thousand kinds of Runes, but Xu Fan now only masters over 80 of them.

“Brother Xu, I know your character, the Secret Realm is something we had screened in advance.”

“In the Secret Realm, there are only Demonic Beasts at the Qi Cultivation stage, at most, are Demonic Beasts at the Qi Cultivation Peak.”

“Considering Brother Xu’s strength, safety is assured.” Wang Yulun continued to persuade, knowing that Xu Fan has recently been fascinated by the Refining Path.

“Indeed, there’s a Refining Master’s legacy inside, isn’t Brother Xu moved by it?” Murong Qian’er also said from the side.

“Both of you, harmonizing the way you do, are you aiming at something?” Xu Fan said, looking at the loving couple in front of him.

“Hehe, I just want to follow Brother Xu for some benefits, I’m a bit hard up recently.”

After getting a Dao Companion, Wang Yulun always found that Spirit Stones were not enough. Though Qian’er had Spirit Stones, how could he, as a big man, let a woman spend Spirit Stones?

Xu Fan glanced at Murong Qian’er without leaving a trace, expressing great understanding.

“Are you sure, there are only Demonic Beasts of the Qi Cultivation stage inside?” Xu Fan pondered for a while and said.

“Yes, only Demonic Beasts of the Qi Cultivation stage.” Wang Yulun affirmed.

“So when do we go?”

“Ten days later, gather at Tianmi Peak, the entrance fee to the Secret Realm is 1,000 Spirit Stones per person.” Wang Yulun said.

“Alright.”

After sending the two away, Xu Fan began to sort out the techniques he had learned. He attached great importance to the place where a potential battle might occur.

Xu Fan waved his hand and a hundred iron spheres sized like billiard balls appeared in the air. Thunder shone in his hand as he began to examine each one and engraved mysterious runes on their surface.

“Not sure if they can be used, I haven’t tested this technique yet, I don’t know if its power is as huge as imagined.” Xu Fan caressed the iron sphere in his hand and said.

“No, a hundred is a bit insecure, I need to refine some more.”

Xu Fan came to the Artifact Refining Room he had built, laid down a Spiritual Fire formation with Spirit Stones, took out a pile of fine iron ore and began to condense iron spheres.

The next day, Xu Fan arrived at the gathering place of the alliance, in a three-story pavilion on Upper Spirit Peak..

As soon as Xu Fan arrived, he was welcomed by all the disciples in the alliance.

“Hello, Brother Xu.”

“Brother Xu, have some tea.”

“Brother Xu, have you had breakfast? I’ll go and buy one from the Immortal Spirit Tower.”

At this moment, Pang Fu came out.

“Why is Junior Brother Xu interested in coming to the alliance headquarters today?” Pang Fu said with a smile. Ever since Xu Fan had handed out several batches of sought-after Spiritual Pills in the alliance, Xu Fan had entered his VIP list. These were all people who needed to be well attended to.

“Just came to have a look, are those tasks to buy Spiritual Pills yesterday still there?” Xu Fan said with a smile. Don’t hit a smiley person, he had a good impression of Pang Fu.

“They are, they are, Junior Brother Xu is referring to that task.”

“That’s the task to purchase Speed Spirit Pill and Forging Body Pill.” Xu Fan casually said.

“Junior Brother Xu can now refine high-grade Forging Body Pills.” Pang Fu said with surprise. Alchemists who could refine high-grade Spiritual Pills were all desirable characters in the eyes of other cultivators.

An alchemist could master the refining of medium-grade Spiritual Pills after thousands of attempts, but to refine high-grade Spiritual Pills required talent.

“I’ve luckily concocted a few bottles.”

Looking at the flattering Pang Fu, Xu Fan felt a little smug. Although he usually kept a low profile, occasionally showing off was quite enjoyable.
