Chapter 422: Chapter 422 Ni Yun (2)_1

"Xiaohuo, how come you are here?" the man ran over to Xiaohuo’s side and asked, "Where’s brother? Why are you alone?"

Xiaohuo looked at the man, then at Dugu Qianye. Dugu Qianye came over to Xiaohuo and asked, "How do you know Xiaohuo?"

Had they just arrived and the Phoenix Clan knew about it already?

Xiaohuo tugged on Dugu Qianye’s hand and said, "Sister, his scent is somewhat familiar, it seems to be..."

"Xiaohuo, it’s me, Tongtong! I’m Tongtong, don’t you remember me?" Bei Tong, seeing everyone looking at him with wary faces, said, "Xuanyue Continent, Phantom Sea Domain, that little kid, Tongtong, do you still remember?"

"You’re Tongtong?!" Xiaohuo, hearing Bei Tong’s words, said, "I remember now, it’s Tongtong’s scent. But wasn’t Tongtong very small? How come in just three or four years of not seeing each other, you’ve become an adult?"

"That’s a long story, I’ll tell you about it later. Where’s brother? Why isn’t he with you?" Bei Tong, seeing Hao Pengyou and the others, but not seeing Baili Xie, asked.

"Hahaha, there’s no brother, only a sister!" Xiaohuo was amused by Bei Tong’s foolishness and laughed as he spoke.

"No brother? Then where is Baili brother?" Bei Tong asked.

"Well, this is your Baili brother." Xiaohuo pointed at Dugu Qianye and said.

Dugu Qianye never expected to have the chance to meet Bei Tong again, especially under such circumstances. Looking at Bei Tong who was now a head taller than herself, she could hardly connect him with the child who once only reached her chest.

"Tongtong," Dugu Qianye looked at Bei Tong and said, "I am Baili Xie."

Bei Tong, hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, wore a look of disbelief. Hadn’t he been male before? How had he turned into a woman?

Seeing Bei Tong’s skeptical look, Dugu Qianye smiled and said, "The space ring I gave you before, did you use the herbs inside? How’s your alchemy level now?"

Hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, Bei Tong finally believed that the brother from before was indeed the woman in front of him. He scratched the back of his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I, I thought it was brother, I didn’t expect it to be sister."

"How come you’re here?" Dugu Qianye looked at Bei Tong, who was alone, and asked, "Where’s Grandfather Bai?"

Speaking of silver, a trace of sorrow crossed Bei Tong’s eyes as he said, "Grandfather is dead. Back then..."

It turned out that silver had once consumed an elixir brought back from the Divine Temple by Bei Tong’s father. In the incident back then, he had been drained into a mummy. Bei Tong watched him die, and the young him was terrified, his cries alarming the villagers. They ran over and were also petrified by the sight of silver. Other residents in the village experienced the same fate, and even the villagers who had come to help Bei Tong turned into mummies. Witnessing living people transform into such terrifying figures before his eyes almost drove the young Bei Tong to the brink.

Luckily, the sucking force suddenly disappeared, but by then, half the villagers were dead, and half of those who survived had aged into old men. The villagers burned all the mummies, and Bei Tong watched his grandfather slowly turn into ashes.

Without his grandfather, Bei Tong had only the Phantom Beast named Yingfeng that Dugu Qianye had once given him to depend on. The prey it caught for Bei Tong became his food.

One day, he sat on a mountaintop, looking at the desolate village, thinking of the life he had with his grandfather, and grief overwhelmed him.

"Master, don’t be sad anymore, Yingfeng is here with you. If your Baili brother saw you like this, he would surely be heartbroken," Yingfeng said.

"Brother, Brother hoped I would be good at alchemy. I even said I would go find Brother when I grew up," Bei Tong wiped the tears from his face and said.

"So you have to pull yourself together, otherwise you’ll have to live here forever and never see your brother Baili Xie again."

From that day on, Bei Tong would go to the cliff where he met Dugu Qianye and study the Pill Book she had given him, identifying each medicinal herb in the Space Ring, and practice when he returned home.

One day, a stranger came to the island and saw Tongtong on top of the cliff. He descended and asked, "Little friend, where are your elders?"

"My grandfather is dead. Now it’s just me," Tongtong closed the Pill Book and stood up to reply.

"Could you take me to a nearby village?" the man asked.

Tongtong nodded and led him to the village. The villagers now knew that the Divine Temple had vanished, so they were no longer afraid to bring strangers back. And by now, hardly any strangers came anymore.

Tongtong brought him to the adults in the village, listened to his talk, which seemed to be about the recent anomaly. After accompanying the man around the village, the man said he wanted to stay at his place for a few days.

With someone at home, Tongtong stopped going out. During the day, he would read at home, study medicinal herbs, elixir formulas, and sometimes practice alchemy using the Pill Furnace and techniques Dugu Qianye had once taught him. His talent was high, and the annotations that Dugu Qianye left in the Pill Book were very detailed, pointing out where to be cautious, so his success rate in alchemy was high.

One day, while he was making elixirs in his room, once he finished, he saw the man standing at his door, not knowing how long he had been there. After he completed the alchemy, the man came in and said, "Your talent is not bad, but you still need more systematic learning of alchemical knowledge. If you had been a little more attentive during your alchemy just now, your elixir completion rate would have been even higher."

After speaking, the man used Tongtong’s medicinal herbs and Pill Furnace and made a batch of elixirs. With the same herbs and Pill Furnace, his output was more than twice that of Tongtong’s.

Bei Tong looked at the elixirs in his hand and said, "So you are an alchemist!"

"Yes, but I’m leaving now. You have great talent. Would you like to come with me and be my disciple?"

"Come with you?" Tongtong looked at the man, thought for a moment, and asked, "If I go with you, can I become stronger?"

"As long as you work hard," the man replied meaningfully.

Tongtong glanced at the Pill Furnace next to the welcoming wind and said, "If I become stronger, I can go find Brother, right?"

The welcoming wind smiled and nodded.

"I’ll go with you," Bei Tong knelt down and bowed to the man, saying loudly, "Master above, please accept your disciple’s bow."

"Very well, I accept your three bows and will teach you all I know about alchemy," the man helped Bei Tong up, "My name is Ni Yun. Remember, I’m only responsible for teaching you. Whether you learn or how well you learn, that’s up to you. If you make no progress because you prefer play, I will also expel you from discipleship."

"Disciple will heed Master’s teachings," Bei Tong respectfully replied.

Afterward, Bei Tong left with Ni Yun. It was only when they reached the interface passage that he found out Ni Yun was not from the Xuanyue Continent. He gave Bei Tong a Divine Artifact to protect his body, then carried him into the passage, leaving the Xuanyue Continent.
