Chapter 137: Chapter 124 Support

"Elder, thank you. Lin Yuan agrees to this matter." Lin Yuan nodded and asked again, "I just don’t know what Beiqing Hall requires of me?"

"You need not worry. With your current level of alchemy, managing Beiqing Hall is more than sufficient." Pei Zhangluo could see Lin Yuan’s concerns and said solemnly, "You have an exceptional talent in alchemy, and there will be an opportunity awaiting you. For now, you can familiarize yourself with Beiqing Hall."

"I will follow the Elder’s instructions." Lin Yuan cupped his hands again and said solemnly.

After leaving Cuiyun Building, Shen Wanpo accompanied Lin Yuan.

The two of them took a carriage directly back to their small residence.

After arranging a resting place for Shen Wanpo in the outer courtyard, Lin Yuan returned to his room.

Lin Yuan returned rather late and saw Zhu Lingshan from afar, sitting by the window with a worried expression, staring blankly at the sky, which was very different from her usual bright and cheerful self.

"Junior Sister." Lin Yuan walked to the window and softly called out.

"Senior Brother, you’re back?" Zhu Lingshan immediately lit up with joy and smiled at Lin Yuan.

"Guess what I brought you?"

Lin Yuan took out a paper box wrapped in kraft paper from behind his back.

Zhu Lingshan took it and opened it.

"It’s snowflake crisp!"

Her eyes immediately lit up, and she exclaimed with surprise, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

Zhu Lingshan gently kissed Lin Yuan on the cheek through the window.

"Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun."

She turned her head and called Xiaoyun a couple of times to share the snowflake crisp with her.

"Coming, Miss."

Xiaoyun, who was washing dishes with wet hands, hurried over at Zhu Lingshan’s call.

"Look what this is? It’s snowflake crisp brought by Senior Brother." Zhu Lingshan giggled.

Seeing the snowflake crisp in Zhu Lingshan’s hands, Xiaoyun’s mouth watered instantly.

"Miss, it smells so good." Xiaoyun quickly came forward and took the pastry given by Zhu Lingshan, saying with surprise, "Master-in-law is the best. Xiaoyun likes Master-in-law the most."

Lin Yuan smiled silently, feeling a gentle ripple in his heart seeing Zhu Lingshan and Xiaoyun happily eating.

This quiet, peaceful, and warm scene was exactly what he had been striving to achieve through his cultivation.

For his family and also for himself, to enjoy this pleasant tranquility. Despite the chilly winter winds, his heart felt a warm sun-like warmth.

"If Junior Sister has something on her mind, perhaps it can wait until she wants to talk about it." Lin Yuan thought to himself, not wanting to break the harmony.

Lin Yuan’s thoughts turned, and then he took out a token from his arms.

"Junior Sister, look at this." Lin Yuan said with a smile.

"What is this?" Zhu Lingshan took it over and looked closely by the candlelight.

Once she understood, Zhu Lingshan immediately exclaimed with joy, "Senior Brother, you’ve been promoted to Pill Master?"

"Hahaha, that’s right." Lin Yuan laughed, placing a big kiss on Zhu Lingshan’s delicate face from outside the window, "From now on, this Pill Master will let you eat the rich and drink the spicy. Would the young lady like to fulfill grandpa’s wish?"

After speaking, Lin Yuan winked at Zhu Lingshan.

"Oh!" Zhu Lingshan quickly withdrew, her face blushing.

She was about to congratulate him, but this rascal turned the topic around with a few words. Xiaoyun was still around, how could he be like this?

"Master-in-law, what is it? Xiaoyun also wants to try." Xiaoyun blinked and asked curiously.

"Hahaha." Lin Yuan laughed, flicking her forehead with a finger.

He stepped inside the house.

Xiaoyun rubbed her forehead, watching Lin Yuan walk through the door, pouting from behind, murmuring, "Hmph. Naughty master-in-law, always bullying me."

The next day, after introducing Shen Wanpo to Zhu Lingshan and Xiaoyun, Lin Yuan went out early.

He headed straight to the Pill Hall.

In the morning at the Pill Hall, the pharmacists on duty gathered in small groups, chatting about recent interesting events.

"I heard that yesterday, a Pill Master Lin produced a furnace of pills, each one a top-grade pill from the middle grade. The level of alchemy was astonishingly high and fast." A lean middle-aged man joined the crowd and said quietly.

"How could that be! I’ve been practicing alchemy for 20-30 years, and I’ve never seen such a speed as rumored out there. A single person’s speed is already three times that of an ordinary Pill Master, and the number of pills produced is also three times that of an ordinary person. Such an outrageous thing, even a three-year-old wouldn’t believe it!" A slightly plump Pill Master scoffed.

"Hey, don’t say that. Yesterday, one of my friends attended the ceremony. He came to my home last night to personally tell me about it. Besides a few Hall Masters from the Pill Hall, I’ve never seen him admire someone so much. It makes me want to meet this Pill Master Lin." Another Pill Master shook his head, insisting the story was true.

"There’s also news that this Pill Master Lin has caught the Elder’s eye and is now going to lead Beiqing Hall. I wonder if it’s true or false. If this Pill Master Lin does come over, how will Hall Master Du handle it? It would be so awkward if they met." Another person with well-connected information surprised everyone.

After all, controlling Beiqing Hall meant immense power.

"No, no, no, you’re underestimating Hall Master Du. This Hall Master wanted to compete with West Success Hall. But a few years ago, after Master You from West Success Hall became a top-grade Pill Master, Beiqing Hall could no longer match them. Lin Yuan’s arrival might give them a chance to become a top-grade Pill Master in the future, and Hall Master Du would surely support wholeheartedly."

"Ahem, ahem."

Just as the person was about to continue, the Pill Master in front of him feigned a couple of coughs.

At this moment, an elderly man, agile despite being over fifty, appeared behind them. From years of studying alchemy books, he exuded an aura of scholarly elegance.

"Greetings, Hall Master." The group quickly nodded in acknowledgment, showing respect.

The person speaking earlier felt fortunate, glad not to have badmouthed Hall Master Du. Otherwise, with Lin Yuan coming, he would be the unlucky one.

"Fellow alchemists." Du Rulun walked forward, speaking solemnly, "I’ve been managing Beiqing Hall for a while, but our Beiqing Hall has consistently ranked at the bottom among the four halls, for which I feel deeply guilty."

What does Hall Master Du mean by this? Could it be that the earlier words from Pill Master Li were not rumors? Is Lin Yuan really coming to lead Beiqing Hall?

Everyone was unsure, but they still complimented him respectfully.

"Hall Master, you’ve worked hard, we know. You’re being too humble. The other halls received more resources, so it’s natural that our Beiqing Hall lags a little."

"What you say, I understand. But I am insufficient in my ability, so I should step down and give way to the capable." Du Rulun smiled lightly, without any attachment to power, "Today, Lin Yuan, Master Lin will be joining Beiqing Hall. Master Lin’s alchemy skills are profound, far exceeding mine. Please do not underestimate him because of his youth."

"I hope everyone will do their best to follow Master Lin’s arrangements, do not be perfunctory." Du Rulun’s voice deepened, glancing around at the Pill Masters.

Having controlled Beiqing Hall for so many years, he had accumulated a heavy aura of authority, leaving the other Pill Masters no choice but to comply.

The room fell silent instantly. Everyone understood that the former Hall Master was genuinely going to give full support to the new Hall Master.

Seeing that all the Pill Masters understood his intentions, he nodded slightly.

Tap, tap, tap.

Footsteps sounded from outside the hall.

Everyone immediately turned to look toward the entrance.

A slender young man walked into the main hall.
