Chapter 339: Elders Qian and Bai
"Level eight pills..." Su Qian stared at the two Dou Zun condensation pills on the table, his throat dry. This gave him a new understanding of the wealth of a high-level alchemist.
"It's best to take you to meet Elders Qian and Bai."
The Great Elder led Xiao Ze and his group of four to the Book Pavilion. There were ways to enter from both the inner and outer academy, so there was no need to return to the outer academy.
After some twists and turns, Xiao Ze arrived at the Book Pavilion for the third time since being at Jia Nan Academy.
"Elders Bai and Qian, please show yourselves."
The Great Elder's voice echoed through the valley like a sound wave.
After a long time, no one appeared, and the Great Elder looked a bit embarrassed.
Sensing the gazes of Xiao Ze and the others, the Great Elder coughed and said, "Elders Qian and Bai are the guardians of Jia Nan Academy and are in a cultivation retreat. Unless the academy is in a life-or-death situation, they won't appear."
Xiao Ze nodded, understanding. In the original story, Elders Qian and Bai didn't appear when the old demon of the Earth attacked the academy. Only when Xiao Yan created the fire flower that almost destroyed the academy did Elders Qian and Bai appear to save it.
Seeing the Great Elder trying to say something more, Xiao Ze interrupted. "Great Elder, let me try."
Su Qian was surprised, but since Elders Qian and Bai hadn't appeared earlier, it was clear they didn't want to respond to him. Allowing Xiao Ze to try wouldn't hurt.
The Great Elder nodded and stepped back. Xiao Ze stepped forward, suddenly releasing his aura. As a six-star Dou Zun, his impressive aura filled the valley.
The space around him seemed unable to bear the pressure of his aura, rippling as if it were water.
In an instant, two gray shadows appeared. One of them spoke, "Which senior is visiting the Book Pavilion of Jia Nan Academy?"
Elders Qian and Bai didn't know who it was; they only felt the immense strength. Not knowing if it was friend or foe, they spoke courteously.
But they soon noticed Su Qian's presence next to Xiao Ze.
The Great Elder didn't expect Xiao Ze to use his aura to force Elders Qian and Bai to appear. With a forced smile, he stepped forward to explain.
"Elders Qian and Bai, I'm sorry to disturb you..."
After hearing the Great Elder's explanation, Elders Qian and Bai relaxed, relieved that it wasn't an enemy. Otherwise, if four Dou Zun attacked Jia Nan Academy, they couldn't protect it.
Approaching, Elders Qian and Bai realized who Xiao Ze was. Elder Qian couldn't help but say, "Aren't you the student the academy trained years ago?"
"Yes, it's me. I apologize for my rash behavior earlier." Xiao Ze bowed to apologize.
Elder Bai opened his eyes wide, observing Xiao Ze closely, unable to discern his true level.
"A monster! Really a monster! In just a few years, he has become a Dou Zun."
Elder Qian looked at the young women next to Xiao Ze and couldn't help but gasp.
Not only did Xiao Ze have exceptional talent, but the three girls, despite their youth, were also Dou Zun.
"What brings you to us in such a hurry?" Elder Qian looked at Xiao Ze and the others. As Dou Zun, they should be able to handle any problem without needing help.
The Great Elder, who had been ignored, quickly intervened, "Elders Qian and Bai, weren't you trying to break through to the Dou Zun level? Xiao Ze has pills that can increase the chances of success, the Dou Zun condensation pills."
Hearing this, Elders Qian and Bai held their breath and looked at Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze nodded and took out two Dou Zun condensation pills.
Elders Qian and Bai, however, weren't carried away by the excitement of the pills. Elder Qian spoke directly, "There's nothing free in this world. Tell us, what do you want in exchange for these two pills?"
Xiao Ze looked at the Great Elder. Earlier, he had said he could get the help of Elders Qian and Bai.
The Great Elder quickly explained the situation in detail to Elders Qian and Bai.
Meanwhile, Xiao Ze remembered that Elders Qian and Bai were true late bloomers in the original story. After dealing with the old demon of the Earth, they attempted to break through to the Dou Zun level. When Xiao Yan returned to Jia Nan Academy from the central continent, Elders Qian and Bai had already reached the seven-star Dou Zun level, and together they could fight against an eight-star Dou Zun.
Even at the Dou Zun level, they progressed rapidly, proving to be late bloomers.
After finishing talking with the Great Elder, Elders Qian and Bai looked at Xiao Ze with a mix of surprise and admiration.
Not only had he quickly reached a high level of Dou Qi, but he was also a master alchemist.
"Xiao Ze, we owe you thanks. Compared to the benefits of the pills, what you're asking us to do is easy." Elder Qian looked at Xiao Ze and couldn't help but speak.
Elder Bai also spoke, "Two Dou Zun condensation pills can make many strong Dou Zong work for you, just for one of them."
"Haha, I don't plan to stay long in the northwest continent. The safety of the Xiao family is crucial, and I need trustworthy people."
Xiao Ze's words made Elders Qian and Bai smile.
With the academy's relationship, they were naturally trustworthy.
Xiao Ze tossed the two Dou Zun condensation pills to Elders Qian and Bai and bowed. "I wish you success in your breakthrough to the Dou Zun level."
Elders Qian and Bai felt the powerful energy of the pills in their hands, and their hearts beat faster.
"Then, we accept your good wishes. If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask. We will do our best to help you."
After receiving the pills, Elders Qian and Bai wasted no time and hurried to their retreat.
Xiao Ze watched the backs of Elders Qian and Bai and said to the Great Elder, "The next time you see them, you may have to call them Senior Dou Zun."
The Great Elder sighed nostalgically. "Ah, I would also like to retire and train quietly."
"Now that the director is away and the two elders are in retreat, the whole academy depends on me for administration. Ah..."
Having said that, the Great Elder suddenly looked at Xiao Ze. "Xiao Ze, why don't you become the Great Elder of the Inner Academy?"
Xiao Ze laughed and shook his head. "Great Elder, have you forgotten that I have to go to the central continent?"
"True. Ah, do you think I should look for someone to succeed me as Great Elder? I think Hu Qian would be a good choice."
The Great Elder thought of Vice Director Hu Qian. Xiao Ze and the others looked at each other and smiled.
