"Yes, the Blood Wolf Mercenaries. Sooner or later, they will be removed from Rainbow Cloud City." Luo Haiqing nodded and clenched his fists fiercely, "When I think of them, when I make a move against Eldest Miss, I hate them to the point that my teeth feel itchy!"

With a glance, Qin Shi smiled without a word.

The two strolled around the Alchemist Association and started at the building where the alchemists were gathered.

After passing through the building, it was finally the medicine store that Luo Xue Xian talked about.

This medicine store was truly not just any big store. It was at least three stories tall and it was especially grand. In the middle was a huge golden cauldron. Above the cauldron was carved a life-like golden dragon, soaring into the sky.

"Hehe, what a sight."

Just as he entered the medicine store, a strong medicinal fragrance wafted into his nose. Qin Shi couldn't help but feel comfortable as he looked around.

Afterwards, he didn't waste any time as he strolled around the counters to see if there were any herbs he wanted.

When he went through the first and second levels, he did find three herbs that could heal souls. Of these three herbs, two of them were the second grade Life Spirit Mountain Tea and the third grade Spirited Lily.

Logically speaking, this sort of receipt was already pretty good.

However, what happened before made Qin Shi realize that a spiritual herb of this level was impossible to wake up the Jade in the book. To wake her up, she would need at least a fourth rank or higher level spiritual herb.

For this reason, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.

"It seems I can only place my hopes on the third floor." Qin Shi felt slightly apprehensive. If they couldn't find them here, then there was probably no hope for them in the entire Rainbow Cloud City.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to the third floor and walked up with large strides.

However, just as he and Luo Hai Qing arrived at the entrance to the third floor, an armored guard suddenly stopped them and said in a low voice, "The two of you, only the first or second floor is open to the public. The third floor is not open to the public.

"Damn, is this true?"

Qin Shi's brows tightened when he was stopped.

If he didn't go up to the third floor, all hope would be shattered!

As he thought of this, Qin Shi unwillingly asked, "Can't we make an exception? It's not like I'm going to smash and rob them. You can't even put a few herbs on them, right? "

However, no matter what Qin Shi said, the guard was still blocking the way. He stood there as still as a pine tree with only one word, "No."

After a few rounds of arguments, the guard was no longer pleased. He rolled up his sleeves a little and said, "I said that if it's not possible, then it's not possible. If it's not, then don't blame me for being impolite."

At the side, Luo Haiqing's eyes narrowed. Some of the merchants had already been attracted by the dispute and surrounded him, causing him to exclaim, "Strange, Young Master Qin has displayed an extraordinary calmness just now. Why have you become so impatient?"

Of course, what he did not know was that Qin Shi's steadiness would completely disappear when it came to important people.

Amongst the important people, there was no doubt about it.

"Hah, why? You still want to fight with this young master? " Qin Shi's temper wasn't good, and he was worried about the jade in the book. He suddenly became energetic and rolled up his sleeves as well.

Luo Haiqing quickly stopped him. His gaze shifted around as he said in a low voice, "Young Master Qin, don't argue with him. We'll think about it. There must be another way."

When he was stopped, Qin Shi also felt the mixed gazes. In order to not attract attention, he had no choice but to withdraw.

Retreating, Qin Shi stomped his feet on the second floor's great hall and cursed loudly, "F * ck, you're really too unreasonable. What's wrong with alchemists?" This young master has many eyes, many mouths. Isn't it just playing around with the pill furnace to make some medicine? "Incredible?"

He had a feeling that the third floor definitely had something he wanted.

However, he was currently being held back and didn't even have the right to go up. How could he not be impatient?

"Oh right, Mental Energy, how did I forget about that?" With a focused gaze, Qin Shi's eyes lit up. He prepared to use his mental energy to probe first and inwardly rejoiced, "Hmph, if this young master doesn't go up, this young master will still have a way to find out."

He did as he was told. Qin Shi pulled Luo Haiqing and found an inconspicuous corner. They gradually closed their eyes and spread out the spiritual power in their minds, covering the entire medicine shop in the blink of an eye.

As his spirit emerged, everything seemed to be peaceful.

In the blink of an eye, the image of the third level appeared in his mind.

One precious spiritual herb after another that he had never seen before, emitted a faint light. There was a Lingzhi, a snow lotus, and a ginseng and deer antler. If these things were to be placed in Rainbow Cloud City, it would most likely cause quite a sensation.

"As expected of the Alchemist Association, such extravagant work!" Biting his lower lip, Qin Shi quietly snorted. At this time, a emerald green Immortal Phoenix Flower flashed across his sea of consciousness, causing his eyes to light up.

The Immortal Phoenix Flower emitted a halo that circulated around the mind. When Qin Shi's mind touched it, it gave off a strong affinity, causing him to be overjoyed. "This is it …"

Suddenly opening his eyes, Qin Shi revealed a joyful smile.

Although he couldn't be sure of the level of his Immortal Phoenix Flower, he could tell by just the fluctuations of spirit energy that it was definitely not below the fourth grade.

"..."

Of course, what Qin Shi didn't know was that at the instant his Spiritual Force spread out, in a concealed room within the Alchemist Association, a pale-haired old man opened his eyes in vain.

"What a dense Mental Energy …"

The old man stood there in the darkness, wrapped in a black robe, like a ghost hiding in the night sky.

His gaze followed the direction of Qin Shi's Spiritual Force and with a wave of his sleeve, a spiritual power that was much clearer and more vast than Qin Shi's instantly rushed out of the room and onto Qin Shi's body in the medicine store.

In the medicine store, Qin Shi, who was enveloped by his psychic power, didn't notice anything. He remained rooted to the spot, pondering how to get to the third floor of the medicine store.

When he withdrew his Spirit power, the black robed elder revealed a satisfied smile, "He's actually a little demon? It has been a long time since I last saw him. This kind of dense Mental Energy … Interesting! "

"Old Pu, what's wrong?"

At this moment, an aged laughter echoed in the room.

He saw another white-haired old man peeking out from the darkness. His hair was disheveled and his face disheveled. He wore a long white robe with a golden cauldron protruding from the front of it. "I have not seen you reveal such an excited expression in dozens of years. What kind of joyous event did you encounter? Tell this old man?"

Ke ke, Jiu Xian, I finally have a successor. I think that your Alchemist Association has taken a fancy to this brat. He seems to have met with some trouble in your medicine store. The old man stroked his beard, his eyes filled with joy.

The white-robed cultivator was taken aback, but he smiled in a different way. "Heh, what a big card. You want to command me just because you say so?"

"I'll buy you a drink afterwards!"

Mentioning the wine, the white-robed old man was overjoyed. He waved his hands and laughed, "It's an agreement. I'm really curious as to who it is that's interested an old ghost like you."

"..."

Qin Shi was at the third level of the medicine store. He withdrew his mental power and was filled with joy, "There's finally it! Sister Yu is saved! It seems like I must go to the third level."

However, when he thought of this, he glanced at the guards at the entrance of the third floor and forced a bitter expression, "But, this bastard, if he's not willing, how should I go up?"

"Kid, what trouble have you encountered?"

Just as Qin Shi was thinking, a kind laugh came from behind him.

Qin Shi was frightened as his thoughts were interrupted by the laughter. He turned around abruptly and shouted, "Who are you!"

Just as he turned around, the white robed old man who was in the dark room earlier mysteriously appeared behind him.

Qin Shi's body trembled when he saw the white robed old man. He was dumbstruck.

Qin Shi wasn't the only one who was surprised. The white-robed old man was also stunned. The two of them spoke at almost the same time, "It's you?"

Qin Shi recognised this old man. He was the one who gave him the Scarlet Dragon's blood essence in the restaurant back in the ancient city. He was also chased for a few streets, and displayed the ability of a wine immortal that had broken through to the peak of the Spirit Realm.

"Senior, why are you here?"

When they met again, Qin Shi smiled.

"Chairman of the Alchemist Association, He Yan?" At this time, before the white-robed old man could respond, Luo Haiqing who was beside them let out a scream.

"Guild leader?" Qin Shi's eyes widened. He was completely dumbstruck. His mouth was wide open as he stuttered after a long while, "Senior, you, you are the president of this Alchemist Association?"

The old man in white smiled and said proudly, "That's me."

Qin Shi's heart was filled with shock. Never would he have imagined that the old man they met that day would actually be the president of the Rainbow Cloud City's Alchemist Association. Isn't this a bit too dramatic?

Touching his nose, Qin Shi was still in disbelief. He thought to himself, "No wonder he had such power back in the ancient city, but I was curious now. How did he end up in such a sorry state? Being chased for a few streets and almost getting hacked to death! "

Of course, he only dared to think of these words. Back then, he did not know the old man's identity, but Qin Shi remembered that he was boasting with him.

Now that he thought about it, it truly was embarrassing.

"Right!" With a flash of inspiration, Qin Shi grabbed the old man's hand and pulled him without hesitation. "Old senior, you're really my lucky star. I was just wondering how to get to the third floor!"

Seeing Qin Shi's actions, Luo Haiqing was dumbfounded.

He stroked his lips as his heart was filled with shock: "Who exactly is this Young Master Qin? Even the president of the Alchemist Association was recognized? "No wonder Eldest Miss was tempted by him …"

Before He Yan could regain his senses, he was dragged by Qin Shi to the entrance of the third floor.

As he stopped, he felt as if all the bones in his body were about to scatter. He glared at Qin Shi with resentment. "Stinky brat, do you know what it means to respect the elderly and cherish the young?"

"Aiya, okay. It's urgent. Junior will treat you to a drink later." No matter what, Qin Shi still did not have the slightest bit of respect for this messy and unkempt so-called 'President'.

He Yan's face hardened and completely lost his temper. He angrily cursed in his heart: "What the hell is this old fogey doing? I'll settle this score with him when we get back! "

But he only thought about it in his heart and didn't continue to talk nonsense with Qin Shi.

With He Yan around, Qin Shi confidently walked to the entrance of the third floor. The person who stopped him just now once again extended his hand, "Brat, can't you understand what I'm saying? This place is not open to the public, if there is … "

"If what?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Shi interrupted him. He raised his head, raised his hand, and pointed behind him with his thumb. "Look behind me. Come here and talk to me!"

"Yes, president?" This time, it was the guards who blinded them.
