Wang Wei headed to the highest cave of the Origin Pill Dao Sect. At the entrance, he accidentally met a young man wearing a red robe coming out; the young man smiled after seeing Wang Wei and said:
"Fifth brother, why are you here?"
"Second brother, it’s you. I’m here to see the master," replied Wang Wei.
"Is there a problem?"
"No, I just encountered some problems about Alchemy and wanted to ask for the master’s guidance."
"Is that so? Then, I won’t hold you." After that, he flew away. Nevertheless, the fifth brother felt like his younger brother was different today. He shook his head thinking that he might be too sensitive.
Meanwhile, as Wang Wei watched his brother--whose name was Zhang Li--fly away, he noticed that the latter might have discovered something strange about him, or at least, had a slight suspicion.
He took a moment to ponder what was the problem before realizing the crux of the problem. Although he looked exactly like Lou Cheng down to his soul and Fate, his temperament was not the same.
Wang Wei always had an air of confidence and cockiness around him. Adding to that his overwhelming strength, his temperament is unique. As such, even if he turned into Lou Cheng, his previous temperament was affecting his current body.
So, after realizing the problem, he quickly adjusted himself. Although he could fool his second brother, now that he was about to meet his master who was a Saint Realm True Person, it is easier to be exposed.
On the spot, Wang Wei’s temperament changed to a secretly prideful alchemist that is quite conservative. Then, he entered the cave. He notified his master through a talisman and stood up waiting.
Half an hour later, a middle-aged man with slightly dark skin suddenly appeared in the room Wang Wei was in. However, he pretended that he did not notice. After all, his current identity was that of a little Divine Altar Realm cultivator.
"Little Cheng, what brings you to see me today?"
"M-master," stuttered Wang Wei as he slightly jumped backward. Then, he cupped his hand and bow: "Disciple has seen master."
"There is no need to be polite with me," replied Ye Lao, the sect master of the Origin Pill Dao Sect. With a smile on his face, he said: "You rarely leave your alchemy room--unless you have a question of alchemy. So, what is this time?"
Ye Lao was very satisfied with his Fifth Disciple. Although his talent was not the best amongst all the others, he was the most diligent. With effort alone, he managed to make up the gap with some genius alchemist.
"Master, something strange happened to me recently. When I was in Maple Leaf City, I bought a strange mirror. However, a weird light came from it and entered my body. I am worried that something might be wrong."
Ye Lao frowned after hearing this, "Let me check." A powerful Divine Sense came from his body, scanning Wang Wei’s body. At first, he did not find anything, but once he arrived at the spleen, he discovered a weird breath.
A slight surprise flashed in Ye Lao’s eyes, then he said: "Let me see the mirror."
Wang Wei quickly handed it to him. After checking it, he found a similar breath from Wang Wei’s spleen. Then, Ye Lao sighed out loud:
"Little Cheng, you are truly lucky. If I’m not mistaken, this mirror was baptized by the Innate Material Yellow Qi Soil and contained its breath--which was then transferred to you."
Lou Cheng frowned after hearing this, "Master, will I be fine?"
"You do not need to hurry as this is your fortunate encounter. Although only the breath of the Yellow Qi Soil entered your body, it is enough to greatly increase your talent for alchemy."
"Really?"
Ye Lao nodded his head, while Lou Cheng smiled to the point of grinning. However, immediately after, he realized that his action was not proper, so he forced himself to calm down and displayed the proper etiquette.
Sect Master Ye Lao looked at his disciple and sighed internally. He was slightly envious of Lou Cheng’s luck.
"Did anyone else notice when you absorbed the Innate breath?"
"No, I was alone in my room."
"What about the mirror? Who else saw you buy it?"
