When the new steward arrived,

Lin Jing had been busy with alchemy and was unaware of the new arrival; it was Huang Qingling who told him about it.

At the same time, Huang Qingling also brought another piece of news that caught Lin Jing’s attention.

After the arrival of the new steward, they had visited the Liu Clan and called on the Wu Cai Immortal.

This matter couldn’t help but cause Lin Jing to think a bit more.

It seems that the Wu Cai Immortal and this steward from Yuebaolou know each other.

However, even if they knew each other, it wouldn’t be surprising.

After all, belonging to the same rank of Golden Core Immortals, they would have their own network of connections. It’s normal for them to know each other.

Eventually, he remembered what Elder Bai had said and decided to pay a bit more attention to lt.

After Huang Qingling left, Lin Jing continued with his alchemy and no longer thought about the new steward’s affairs.

Two days later…

Lin Jing had just finished refining a batch of Elixir Medicine and, after some rest, was organizing alchemy ingredients, planning to start another refinement…

At this moment, the System alert suddenly went off.

“Warning!”

“Someone has intruded the alert perimeter, please host respond in time.” Lin Jing put down the alchemy ingredients in his hands and frowned…

Because Huang Qingling had just come over in the morning, she told him that she was going to the Li Family to find Li Qingqing and said she might not come back today.

She had originally wanted to bring Lin Jing along, but he had declined, citing alchemy as his reason.

Therefore, the visitor at this time shouldn’t be Huang Qingling.

Besides Huang Qingling, who else could it be at this time?

Lin Jing pondered for a moment, then summoned the System.

“System.”

“Enter Observation Mode.”

Next, Lin Jing’s perspective shifted, appearing above the small courtyard, before moving his view to the front gate of the yard and saw a person standing there.

This person was none other than Yu Yan, who often accompanied the Wang surname Pill Master.

Yu Yan knocked on the door again and then spoke up:

“Lin Daoyou, are you there?”

“It looks like he must be here for some matter,” Lin Jing thought to himself. “System, exit Observation Mode, leave System Space.”

Afterward, Lin Jing left System Space and appeared inside the room.

After tidying up his clothes, Lin Jing walked towards the door.

Upon reaching the door, Lin Jing reached out to open the courtyard gate and saw Yu Yan.

“It’s Yu Daoyou…”

“I was just cultivating, my apologies for making you wait…” “No worries…” Yu Yan waved his hand.

“It is I who has come unannounced and disturbed Lin Daoyou…” “Yu Daoyou, may I know the reason for your sudden visit?” Lin Jing asked.

“Lin Daoyou, here’s the thing…’

Yu Yan began to speak:

“The newly arrived Steward Zheng wishes to gather all Pill Master Offerings tomorrow, saying that some important matters will be discussed, and specifically asked me to notify Lin Daoyou…” Hearing this, Lin Jing thought to himself:

“To gather all Pill Master Offerings…”

“The new steward has just come and already wants to gather all Pill Master Offerings, but it is unclear what this means…”

On the surface, Lin Jing remained composed and cupped his fists to Yu Yan: “I see, thank you, Yu Daoyou, for making a special trip to remind me…”

“It’s nothing, Lin Daoyou, please don’t be so polite…” Yu Yan also responded with a fist salute.

After speaking…

Yu Yan glanced left and right, then stepped closer and whispered to Lin Jing:

“Lin Daoyou.”

“Besides discussing matters, I’ve unintentionally heard that there might also be an assessment this time.”

“It’s said to examine the Alchemy Dao level of all Offerings, and those who do not qualify will be stripped of their Offering status.”

“Moreover, all benefits provided by Yuebaolou will be retracted.”

‘You should be more cautious…”

Yu Yan’s reminder was quite clear.

Because the alchemy level Lin Jing currently showed fell short of the standards of a Yuebaolou Offering.

So, if Lin Jing fails to pass the assessment this time, his identity as an offering Pill Master might very likely be revoked.

“All right, I have delivered the message.”

“I need to inform the other Daoyous, so I will take my leave now…” Having said that, Yu Yan turned and prepared to leave.

“Thank you, Yu Daoyou, for informing me of this matter,” Lin Jing said, clasping his fists in gratitude.

“It’s not necessary…”

“Lin Daoyou, it would be best if you prepare in advance…”

Yu Yan turned back, advising Lin Jing.

After finishing his words, Yu Yan left.

After Yu Yan departed, Lin Jing shut the door and returned to his small courtyard.

Back inside his house, Lin Jing sat there pondering the matter.

He wondered whether the assessment mentioned by Yu Yan was a spontaneous decision by Steward Zheng or if there were other reasons behind it…

Lin Jing had no way of knowing.

But…

He wasn’t worried at all, as with his true level, passing the assessment would be a breeze.

If even with his skill level of a third-grade alchemist he couldn’t pass this assessment, then even less so could anyone else.

Moreover…

Lin Jing also didn’t have to worry about his true strength being exposed because, aside from technique, luck also played a significant part in alchemy.

Even those alchemists whose skills were not quite mature could sometimes have exceptionally good luck, producing elixirs that were even better than those made by more experienced Pill Masters.

It was even possible to directly produce a Pure Elixir.

So there was absolutely no need for concern.

Having thought this through, Lin Jing continued back to the System Space to start making elixirs.

The next day…

Lin Jing arrived early at the Yuebaolou.

After reaching Yuebaolou, he was told to directly gather at the alchemy room of Yuebaolou.

“Alchemy room…”

Lin Jing’s heart stirred, and he thought to himself: “As expected, is this the assessment?”

Then, Lin Jing made his way toward the alchemy room.

On the way, Lin Jing also encountered several Pill Master offering priests.

And like Lin Jing, they were also heading to the alchemy room to gather.

Lin Jing followed them and together they arrived at the alchemy room.

Upon entering, Lin Jing found that many Pill Master offering priests were already there.

At the same time…

Lin Jing also saw Yu Yan and a Pill Master with the surname Wang.

After Lin Jing arrived,

Many people greeted Lin Jing upon seeing him, and Lin Jing responded simply to their greetings.

Afterward, he stayed in an inconspicuous corner, waiting for everyone to arrive.

As they did so, they waited another half an hour before all the offering priests were fully assembled.

It was only then…

Two people pushed the door and walked in.

Lin Jing recognized one of them; it was Steward Cheng, who was close to Elder

The other, a dark-faced elder who walked in front of Steward Cheng, was someone Lin Jing had never seen before.

Presumably, he must be the new Steward Zheng.

The two made their way through the crowd and came to the front of everyone.

At this moment, the dark-faced elder began to speak.

“I apologize for keeping everyone waiting…”

“I assume some of you do not know me yet, so let me introduce myself.”

“I am the new steward of Yuebaolou, my surname is Zheng, and you can just call me Steward Zheng.”

“We have seen Steward Zheng…”

Immediately, some people clasped their hands and addressed Steward Zheng. “There is no need to be so formal…” Steward Zheng raised his hand to stop them.

“Before Elder Bai returns, I will be temporarily managing the Yuebaolou in Nanshan Market.”

“The reason I called everyone here today is to simply talk to you all and also to have you witness something..”
