Chapter 136: A Trivial Matter

"Sect Leader... something terrible has happened. A... a group of female disciples is charging over." At this moment, Zhang Er'gou, his face full of panic, came rushing in.

Too frightening, truly too frightening.

Outside, a group of female disciples was advancing aggressively, their momentum so fierce that Zhang Er'gou looked as if he had lost his soul.

Lin Fan frowned slightly. Female disciples? What female disciples? Then he walked toward the entrance of the peak. When he saw them, Lin Fan couldn't help but smile. It turned out the disciples of Jialan Peak had arrived.

"Greetings, Uncle Lin." Zhou Yaoyao stepped forward, greeting him with a smile.

"Greetings, Uncle Lin." The other female disciples followed suit.

Zhang Er'gou was stunned on the sidelines. He hadn't expected the Sect Leader to know so many female disciples. But thinking about it, it didn't make sense. Since the Sect Leader had joined the sect, he had been by his side, and he hadn't seen him getting to know anyone else.

Strange, truly strange. But when he looked at the group of female disciples, Zhang Er'gou's eyes went wide.

They were incredibly beautiful. If only he could marry one of them as his wife, how wonderful that would be.

But seeing how well the Sect Leader got along with these junior sisters, and how the Sect Leader always took care of them, he probably would arrange marriages too.

"All you junior nieces, what brings you to Nameless Peak today?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.

"We missed you, Uncle. Can't we come to see you?" Zhou Yaoyao said.

Lin Fan chuckled softly. "Go sit over there. Since you're here, let your uncle treat you well."

At present, Nameless Peak had at most four people. For such a vast place, it felt a bit desolate.

Now with so many people here, it was bustling with excitement.

Zhou Yaoyao knew about Nameless Peak. It had once been overgrown with weeds and uninhabited. Now, in such a short time, it had transformed like this. It must be due to the sect's strong support.

Uncle Lin truly lived up to his reputation. In such a short time, he had made the sect so attentive. He was indeed extraordinary.

But time was pressing now, and staying here was out of the question. Zhou Yaoyao pouted and acted spoiled. "Uncle, could you do us a favor?"

At that moment, Zhou Yaoyao tugged at Lin Fan's sleeve, her crystal-clear eyes staring at him pitifully.

Lin Fan smiled calmly, putting on an expression of an elder doting on a junior. "Tell me, what is it?"

"Uncle, could you refine some pills for us? They're all easy to refine, but we're in a bit of a hurry. We've already brought the materials." Zhou Yaoyao said.

"Please help us, Uncle." The group of female disciples behind her gathered around, pleading with Lin Fan.

Today, Jialan Peak's senior sister had organized a trial, which would take place in the Jialan Peak secret realm. Although there was no real danger inside, the conditions were extremely harsh.

For them, the secret realm held no fear, as long as they prepared some necessities.

But the peak's supply of mosquito-repelling pills was insufficient, leaving some disciples without pills.

Without these pills, entering the secret realm would surely attract blood mosquitoes.

In the end, for fairness, the senior sister directly ordered that no one was allowed to bring pills into the secret realm.

So at the last moment, Zhou Yaoyao thought of Lin Fan, hoping Uncle Lin could help.

...

Zhang Er'gou stood to the side, enviously watching the Sect Leader, and sighed softly. The Sect Leader really had a way with women. If only he could stand among them, how wonderful that would be.

But that was clearly impossible.

"Alright, alright, I'll help..." For Lin Fan, pill refining was the simplest thing. Now that such a large group of juniors was begging him to refine pills, he naturally couldn't refuse. How could he disappoint them?

"Uncle, we only need thirty pills. When will they be ready?" Zhou Yaoyao asked after handing the materials to Uncle Lin.

The peak's secret realm would open soon, and they still needed to rush back.

"Very soon." Lin Fan chuckled softly, then, as if intentionally wanting to show off a bit in front of these junior nieces, he made a move.

His right hand flipped, and a blazing flame surged. Lin Fan took out the herbs and tossed them in.

Zhou Yaoyao and the others were dumbfounded. They had no idea what kind of pill-refining method this was.

Zhang Er'gou had deeply absorbed Lin Fan's essence. Now that the Sect Leader was refining pills in public, using the "One Thought into Pill" method, it clearly had profound implications.

As the senior disciple of the Holy Demon Sect, how could he not understand the Sect Leader's intentions?

Especially when he saw the dumbfounded expressions of the female junior sisters, Zhang Er'gou already knew what he had to do.

"Ah, this is actually 'One Thought into Pill,' the highest realm of pill-refining techniques, a method that even the Holy Sect Leader and the various Supreme Elders admire!" Zhang Er'gou exclaimed in feigned astonishment, his voice full of surprise.

His voice was so loud that even the female disciples of Jialan Peak could hear it.

The effect of Zhang Er'gou's words was truly remarkable. The female disciples of Jialan Peak, who were already shocked, became even more astonished.

Especially Zhou Yaoyao, who looked at Lin Fan with even greater admiration. She hadn't expected Uncle Lin to be so powerful.

But if you thought that was all, you would be underestimating Zhang Er'gou's combat effectiveness.

"This pill-refining method has only appeared once in the Holy Sect in ten thousand years. That predecessor used this method to push the sect to its peak, and all the major sects would come to beg for pills..." Zhang Er'gou said with emotion, while occasionally glancing at the expressions of the female junior sisters from Jialan Peak.

Zhang Er'gou was highly skilled at reading people. If the wind changed direction, he would immediately adapt.

But the current situation was very favorable, with everything developing toward the expected goal.

Lin Fan, who was in the midst of refining pills, was very satisfied. Er'gou was good. No wonder he was the senior disciple under his command. If he trained him well in the future, he would surely become a great asset.

"Junior Niece Zhou, take out your storage pouch and prepare to receive the pills." At that moment, the flame in Lin Fan's hand grew more intense. The herbs within the flame gradually melted and condensed into pills.

"Yes." Zhou Yaoyao was startled. She hadn't expected the pill refining to be so fast; not even the time it takes to burn an incense stick had passed.

But since Uncle was urging her, she naturally didn't dare to delay and quickly took out her storage pouch.

"Open it."

"Yes." Zhou Yaoyao didn't hesitate.

At that moment, Lin Fan's right hand trembled slightly, and the pills floating in the flame flew one by one into the storage pouch.

One.

Two.

...

Finally, a full one hundred and twenty pills.

"Uncle, that's too many."

"One batch of materials yields four pills. That's just right." Lin Fan said.

The female disciples of Jialan Peak were shocked, finding it hard to believe. They had always gotten one pill per batch of materials. How could Uncle Lin get four times as many?

Seeing the female disciples of Jialan Peak again showing astonishment, Zhang Er'gou seized the opportunity to speak. "The Sect Leader's pill-refining skill is unmatched in the sect. Even the Supreme Elder of Danding Peak admits he's no match for our Sect Leader. Getting four pills from one batch of materials is quite ordinary for him."

Zhang Er'gou was like an interpreter. Lin Fan didn't need to say a word; Zhang Er'gou said it all.

Sure enough, the female disciples of Jialan Peak now looked at Lin Fan with an expression that could no longer be described as admiration, but rather frenzy.

Like the frenzy of brainless fans chasing a star.

Lin Fan smiled calmly and waved his sleeve. "Alright, since you're in a hurry, go back quickly. This pill is a trivial matter; no need to dwell on it."
