Chapter 466 - Elder

The cauldron lid opened and Alex pulled out 2 different pills and looked at them.

[Skin Smoothing pill: 14%]

[Skin Smoothing pill: 15%]

Alex chuckled a little when he saw that. Even when he tried so hard and did everything right, he could barely make Mortal grade pill. Even if the pills did not split, he doubted he could reach above 20%.

"Sigh, I have a lot of ways to go with making True pills," he thought. Since he was practically out of Qi, it was time to stop.

So, he took back his cauldron and properly stored his pill. Then, he logged out.

It was early in the morning of a Sunday, and he had nothing to do today. The only thing he planned on doing was going to the Tiger sect today since it had already been 2 weeks since he came back.

He went out to get his breakfast and met with the other girls. Since he didn't have much else to do that day, he decided to go on a date with Emily.

They went to a theater to watch a new movie and watched whatever movie was out at the time. The movie they watched wasn't as good as they had hoped it would be, but the time they shared was fun for both of them.

They went to a cafe next and spent some time there too. Then they went around the city just roaming, having a fun time.

Around 3 pm, they returned back home and Alex went back to his room to log into the game.

Once he was back, he stood up from the alchemy room and went over to Ma Rong. He sent out his spiritual sense to check for her, but couldn't find her anywhere.

"Master?" he called out, wondering if he missed her somewhere since it wasn't like he could see her with his spiritual sense.

He got no response, so he turned around to leave. Just then, he saw his master walking up to the house.

She looked tired and not very well. Her face was pale, and the stride in her feet gave away her fatigue.

"Master, are you alright?" he asked as he ran up to her. He grabbed her by the arm and helped her walk.

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired," Ma Rong said. She continued walking to her house, and Alex brought her there.

During the entire time, there was just one thing that Alex couldn't understand at all. 'Why am I not feeling scared?' he thought.

Ever since Ma Rong awakened her constitution, Alex couldn't help but feel scared around her, but now, he didn't feel anything.

In fact, he really didn't feel anything.

"Master, what happened to your cultivation base?" Alex asked worriedly. To him, she was nothing but a mortal right now.

"Don't worry about it. It will be back in just a few minutes," Ma Rong said. After Alex took her to her room, he could finally not feel cold in this place.

Ma Rong sat down and immediately started cultivating. Soon, tiny bits of Qi left her body, followed by a rush of Yin Qi escaping through.

The feeling of fear immediately returned back to Alex, so he once again stepped back so as to not get affected by it.

Ma Rong took a deep breath as all of her tiredness and fatigue disappeared as well. Her cultivation was back with full force and she could finally feel at peace again.

Then, she took another breath, and all the Yin Qi that came out rushing went back inside her.

Alex could still feel her aura, but it wasn't to the same level as when she wasn't in control of her constitution.

"Master, you started getting better at it?" Alex asked in awe.

"Yes," Ma Rong said. "Or at least I'm getting there. Which is working."

"So, you can make pills again now?" Alex asked.

Ma Rong put on a sad smile and shook her head. "Not yet, but I'll get there," she said. "It's just a matter of time."

Alex put on a sad smile too. 'I'm not sure we have any,' he thought. There was still one thing on his mind that was nagging him at the back of his head, but he wasn't concerned about it since he hadn't taken the time to think it through.

"So, why did you want to find me?" she asked.

"Oh, right. I was coming to let you know that I'm going to the Tiger sect now," Alex said.

"Oh, it's time, huh?" Ma Rong said. "Although, before you go, I had something to discuss with you."

"Sure, master. What is it about?" he asked.

"Since you are already so good at making pills, and are already in the Mind Tempering 2nd realm, it's nothing but a few weeks before you reach the True realms."

"At that time, whether you want to or not, you will have to become an elder, or graduate from the sect and leave," Ma Rong said.

"What? Leave? I don't want to, master," Alex said.

"Yeah, I guessed that," Ma Rong said. "So, I had a suggestion for you."

"What is it?" Alex asked and waited for her to continue speaking.

"Do you want to just cut the line and become an elder now?" Ma Rong asked.

Alex was surprised. "Right now?" he asked.

"Yeah, what do you think?" Ma Rong asked.

Alex fell into contemplation. He would just have to hand over a single Heaven grade common pill and he would become an elder just like that.

However, he wasn't sure if he wanted to do that right now. 'But what else do I have left to do here?' he wondered.

'Besides becoming an elder, I really do have nothing. But then the responsibilities…' he started worrying.

"How about this, master?" Alex said. "I will think about it after I return from the Tiger sect."

Ma Rong smiled. "I didn't want to make you an elder right now either. Go and come back.. We will have plenty of time to talk about this."
