Ye Ji followed Emperor Zun until dawn, until Emperor Zun was informed by people in the front hall that a "court meeting" was about to be held, Ye Ji reluctantly said goodbye to him.
Looking at the farewell look, the five guardians felt that Ye Ji and Di Zun were quite a match. They looked like a young daughter-in-law sending off her husband-in-law, gentle and nostalgic.
As soon as Emperor Zun left, Ye Ji received a notification from Protector Jin on the back that Yao Lao had arrived.
Thinking of his cheap apprentice, Ye Ji took a shower and then walked over slowly.
In the courtyard, Yao Lao has been waiting for a long time.
If it were in the past, he would definitely sit there, holding a cup of tea, and wait leisurely.
But today, he came to be a disciple, oh no, to come to see his master. For this reason, he bent down the whole time and stood respectfully waiting, like a sculpture, motionless.
It wasn't until Ye Ji arrived that Yaolao's eyes lit up and he rushed forward excitedly: "Empress, are you okay?"
"Since the last time we said goodbye, I've been thinking about it day and night, lest you get hurt in the slightest."
"I am also a waste, and I cannot protect you."
Seeing that Yao Lao was going on endlessly, Ye Ji quickly stopped: "Stop, let's just get to the point."
"This is my wish. Can you please arrange an errand for me so that I can learn a thing or two by your side." Yao Lao said and presented the top-grade elixirs he had refined one by one.
Ye Ji didn't even look at the pill, and said bluntly: "Forget it about errands. You are also the number one alchemist in the spiritual world. It would be too unfair for you to be a handyman for me."
After hearing this, Yao Lao shook his head with emotion: "I am not wronged, I am not wronged. I can follow you and have your guidance. How can I be wronged? This is a blessing that I will never be able to cultivate in ten lifetimes."
The three guardians responsible for protecting Ye Ji: "..."
With the foreshadowing last night, it's not difficult to manage expressions, but...it's a bit hard to accept!
"You should be my apprentice. After all, you are qualified to be the number one alchemist." Ye Ji said, sitting on the chair seriously.
The three guardians: "..."
What a godly qualification!
Yao Lao was so moved that he wiped his tears and said excitedly: "Master, as long as you say a word, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, no matter what!"
With that said, he presented the generous gift he had brought, and then kowtowed heavily to Ye Ji three times.
Ye Ji also did practical things. After accepting Yao Lao as his apprentice, he began to give on-the-spot guidance.
Ye Ji carefully observed Yao Lao's alchemy process, and then pointed out Yao Lao's shortcomings one by one.
At first, the three guardians thought Ye Ji was talking nonsense.
But when the elixir was released, they discovered that what Ye Ji said was exactly the same as the problem presented by the elixir.
If Yao Lao really improves according to Ye Ji's instructions, he may have to refine the elixir of Dzogchen.
"If I can become your disciple, I will die laughing." Yao Lao's excited lips never closed.
Ye Ji: "..."
While Yao Lao was studying alchemy, Ye Ji also began to meditate cross-legged. The master and apprentice did not interfere with each other, but after a while, a burst of white light appeared on Ye Ji's body.
"Look, look, Madam has made a breakthrough!" said the Earth Protector with an expression of surprise.
Seeing Ye Ji's breakthrough so quickly, Yao Lao was stunned, his hands shook, and he almost destroyed his elixir.
I thought that Ye Ji had made a breakthrough today and would never be able to break through again, but unexpectedly, before Yao Lao's batch of elixirs was finished, a second white light appeared on Ye Ji's body.
"Look, look, Madam has made a breakthrough again!" Protector Tu's eyes were full of shock.
Madam, is this too awesome?
Two breakthroughs in one day?
Seeing that Yao Lao finally succeeded in refining the elixir, he wanted to ask Ye Ji to give him a few comments, but then he saw white light emerging from Ye Ji again.
"Look, look, madam has broken through again!" The Earth Protector was dumbfounded, and his whole body was stunned.
Three breakthroughs in one day?
Is she still human?
Soon, the three guardians stopped looking at Yao Lao and stared at Ye Ji with all their attention.
Just as the Earth Protector was counting down the seconds: "Five, four, three, two, one..."
As the countdown ended, another burst of white light flashed across Ye Ji's body.
"Damn it, I broke through!" The three guardians were stunned, with disbelief on their faces.
I saw the white light on Ye Ji's body shining again, and her aura instantly climbed to a new level.
This was already her fourth breakthrough today, and every breakthrough was so fast and smooth, it was simply unbelievable.
Later, when the three guardians saw Ye Ji's breakthrough, they were all numb.
She is simply not human!
After Yao Lao finished refining the elixir, he felt refreshed, as if he had been reborn, and his whole body was full of strength.
Now, even if he comes to a hundred furnaces, he will still practice it!
Yao Lao originally wanted to take credit from Ye Ji, but then he saw that Ye Ji, who originally had no spiritual power at all, was now a spiritual master with level six spiritual power!
At this speed of promotion, the shocked Yao Lao could fit a whole egg into his mouth.
He didn't believe it before when the master said it was her first time making alchemy, but now, he believes it!
His master is simply a genius!
At the same time, the atmosphere in the magnificent front hall was extremely tense.
At this time, the Emperor seemed to have changed into a different person. The gentle and elegant aura he once had was completely gone, replaced by the domineering aura of a king who looked down upon the world and killed decisively.
"I've seen the Emperor!" Everyone bowed and saluted.
"Ping Shen." The emperor's voice was cold, and his eyes were like frost, sweeping over everyone.
Seeing Emperor Zun like this, many members of the Saint clan retreated.
Only the saint stepped forward unwillingly and said: "Please Emperor, please let the elder go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people of the Holy Clan realized that they were here to force Emperor Zun to release him. Why did he give up before he even said anything?
So, according to the arguments agreed upon by everyone, he began to defend the great elder: "Your Majesty, the great elder is certainly wrong, but isn't his original intention still to consider the safety of our spiritual world?"
"He heard news that an unknown outsider broke into our territory. Facing unknown enemies and friends, he will inevitably have misunderstandings, and accidental injuries are inevitable."
"Please Emperor, please forgive the Great Elder for the sake of the safety of the spiritual world!"
Emperor Zun glanced at them coldly and did not respond.
Seeing this, the saint continued to say in a strong tone: "Lord Emperor, do you really want to sacrifice the life of the great elder for a mortal woman in the fantasy continent?"
"Ye Ji is just an insignificant mortal. Does she deserve to be buried with our great elder from the spiritual world? Can she afford it?"
The saint's words were full of unwillingness and contempt!
In her eyes, Ye Ji's life and death were of no importance at all.
It's not even as important as the great elder's finger!
But the Emperor wanted to sacrifice the Great Elder just to vent his anger on Ye Ji?
Hearing that the saint was disrespectful to Ye Ji, the second elder frowned displeased and retorted: "Lord saint, Ye Ji is the biological mother of your highness the princess, and she is also our benefactor in the spiritual world, but you say she is unworthy? What? She doesn’t deserve it, but you do?”
The second elder rolled his eyes angrily. He didn't even bother to expose the saint's dirty thoughts!
