Stepping into the threshold with one foot, Ye Bai's eyes swept forward, and what caught his eye was an old man dressed in white with a white beard.

The white clothes on this old man's body obviously have a lot of patches, it seems to be the same as the small courtyard, and there is some history, the old man does not have any breath on his body, and he is no different from ordinary people, he is holding a broom at the moment, and he is slowly sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground.

The mountain breeze blew, the tall plane trees in the courtyard rattled, and countless yellow fallen leaves fell again, as if the fallen leaves in the entire courtyard could never be swept away.

Ye Bai inexplicably felt a sympathetic feeling in his heart, he always felt that the other party didn't seem to care about whether he could clean it up, or rather, the reason why the other party wanted to do this was just to pass the time.

This feeling is very strange, but the moment he saw this old man, Ye Bai did have such a feeling in his heart.

However, Li Qingyi's words next made Ye Bai put away such thoughts.

"Senior brother!"

Li Qingyi bowed deeply, and bowed meticulously, with a solemn and solemn face.

The old man seemed to realize that someone had come in, he stopped his movements, glanced at Li Qingyi, smiled, and said, "It's coming." ”

Li Qingyi nodded.

Ye Bai was a little surprised, from Yuan Zhen's mouth, he knew very well that this Elder Li Qingyi was extremely high, and as his senior brother, how could this old man live alone in such a dilapidated place?

Yes, the so-called sense of history, to put it bluntly, is dilapidated.

Moreover, no matter how this old man looks, he looks like an ordinary person.

Just as Ye Bai was thinking about these things, the old man's gaze fell on Ye Bai in the same way, his eyes were gentle, a smile appeared on his face, and at a glance, he looked like an old grandfather in the neighborhood.

"Are you Ye Bai?"

That was the first thing he said.

Ye Bai hesitated for a moment, then saluted seriously and said, "Disciple Ye Bai, I have seen my predecessors. ”

The old man nodded slowly, his smile was even bigger, but a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Under this flash of light, Ye Bai was shocked in his heart, and he had a feeling that the whole body was understood by the other party.

What's more, he actually felt that the Qinglian Fire in the sea of qi was inexplicably irritable, and that feeling was like encountering a natural enemy.

Ye Bai's heart sank, and he hurriedly appeased Qinglian Huo, but his face became much more respectful.

He could be sure that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person, and this was clearly a hidden hermit.

In fact, as Li Qingyi's senior brother, how can the senior brother who can make Li Qingyi treat him like this be an ordinary person?

"Not bad, not bad. ”

A look of satisfaction flashed in the old man's eyes, and he said unhurriedly: "It's good that you can feel threatened." ”

It's nice to feel threatened?

Ye Bai was a little speechless, and he didn't feel that he had anything good about it, but since the other party said so, he would naturally not be stupid enough to refute the other party.

The old man didn't say anything, he turned his head to look at Li Qingyi and said, "Senior brother, thank you." ”

Li Qingyi's eyes were complicated, and there was a hint of fanaticism in it, he suddenly sighed and said, "Senior brother, between us, why should it be like this, you know very well that I want to succeed more than you." ”

"yes, we've waited too long. ”

The old man was silent for a moment before he spoke out.

Ye Bai lowered his eyebrows and stood obediently, he didn't understand the conversation between the two.

The old man glanced at him again, and then his face perked, he didn't know what he thought, and said with a smile: "His talent is very strong, and he can condense the Qinglian Fire, or give birth to the Qinglian Fire of Spiritual Wisdom, yes, very good, if you look at the talent, throughout the establishment of the Dan Palace, it can also rank in the top three." ”

"Young man, would you like to worship me as a teacher?"

The old man's eyes were shining, staring at Ye Bai.

Ye Bai was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably: "Why do you want to take me as an apprentice?"

The old man didn't seem to expect Ye Bai to answer like this, he smiled and asked, "What, do many people want to accept you as a vain?"

Ye Bai did not answer this sentence.

Li Qingyi's face was a little strange, he said the sensation caused by Ye Bai's entry, and the old man smiled with relief and said, "It's no wonder, with your talent, even I am very tempted, let alone them." ”

Ye Bai sensitively noticed the arrogance contained in this sentence, as if in this old man's heart, it was an extremely remarkable thing to be able to attract his attention.

What's more, this old man's words faintly didn't even pay much attention to Supreme Elders like Ye Bai's master and Yunxu Zhenren.

Who the hell is this guy?

Ye Bai's heart shook a little.

The old man pondered for a moment, threw the broom in his hand on the ground, he raised his head, looked at Ye Bai with an expectant gaze, and said, "Don't worry, no one will object to the matter of worshipping me as a teacher, as for your master, there are many...... Since your masters don't mind, what do you have to mind?"

Ye Bai choked and wanted to refute, but found that he had nothing to refute at all.

Li Qingyi suddenly said: "Elder Yunxu once told you that if you worship under his door, he can guarantee that you can become an eight-rank alchemist, but do you think that an eight-rank alchemist is your end?"

Ye Bai spread his hands, rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Elder Li, I'm just a second-grade alchemist now, and I don't know what the concept of an eighth-grade alchemist is. ”

Li Qingyi looked at Ye Bai and was speechless.

He really wanted to slap Ye Bai to death, after all, there was an alchemist who said that he didn't know the concept of an eight-rank alchemist?

But when he thought that it hadn't been long since Ye Bai had studied alchemy, he knew that what Ye Bai said was right, but the more this happened, the more speechless he became in his heart.

This is simply a pervert like a demon!

"Second-grade alchemist?"

When the old man heard this, his face moved, and his eyes showed a strange look.

Li Qingyi came back to his senses, his tone was a little amazed, and said, "Senior brother, just now, Ye Bai has successfully refined the second-grade pill and become a second-grade alchemist. ”

"What?"

The old man's eyes froze, his face became serious, he slowly looked at Ye Bai, but said in his mouth: "Senior brother, if I remember correctly, he should have just refined a grade of pills." ”

"Yes, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, senior brother, I wouldn't want to believe it. ”

Rao was proud of Li Qingyi, thinking of the scene he had seen before, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
