Half a month later.

In the courtyard, the temperature inside the house was extremely low. This was because Lu An made an ice palace out of profound ice and wrapped himself in it. There were ice tables and chairs inside, as well as materials being refined.

I saw Lu An carefully refining the materials. According to the contents of the elixir book, except for the materials he was refining, he had successfully refined all the existing materials so far. In the past half month, he has been half practicing and half

Refining elixirs, if it were ordinary elixirs, he would not spare so much time, but refining seventh-grade elixirs still interested him very much.

If he hadn't been wrapped in an ice palace, the flames that had been rising for a long time would have ignited the room. Finally, after a long time, Lu An suddenly retracted the flames, held the refined materials in his hands, and finally exhaled for a long time.

One breath.

The feeling of holding my breath all the time is very uncomfortable. .??.

Now, all the materials that need to be purified on the elixir spectrum have been basically purified, except for the two materials that he does not have yet. Those two materials have not been sent by Yang Meiren for a long time. Lu An knows that she must be trying her best to find them, and there is no reason for him to go there.

Reminder. Moreover, purification is only one of the steps in alchemy. Although he can purify it, it does not mean that he can continue.

Alchemy can be said to be a wrong step, and every step is wrong. Among the hundreds of procedures, if one cannot do it, the elixir cannot be made. Lu An picked up the alchemy book and demonstrated in his mind the contents of the next step of refining. And in this

Suddenly, a breeze appeared in his room, causing Lu An to raise his head.

He saw a beautiful figure standing in front of him, it was Yang Meiren.

"This slave has met the master." Yang Meiren said and knelt down. Lu An had long been accustomed to seeing this scene. Maybe he was only used to Yang Meiren kneeling to him. If others were to kneel to him, he would not be able to accept it mentally.

"Get up." Lu An put away the cold ice palace around him, sat on a chair and looked at Yang Meiren and asked, "How is it? Did you get the Black Water Diamond Pill?"

In Lu An's expectant eyes, Yang Meiren shook her head slightly and said, "No."

Lu An was stunned and asked doubtfully, "Is there no one in the Medicine God Kingdom who can refine it?"

"Yes." Yang Meiren said, "But only a few people can, but they are all practicing

Alchemy idiot, if you want to buy the Black Water Diamond Pill, you must exchange it with other precious materials and pills, which I don’t have."

Lu An frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect it to be for such a reason. Indeed, money has no meaning to such a pharmacist. With such a skill in refining alchemy, you can get it for any amount of money.

Seeing Lu An's thinking, Yang Meiren thought for a while and asked, "How is the master's refining going?"

Lu An was startled when he heard this. He placed the purified materials in the ring on the table and said, "I have purified all the materials you gave me. The success rate is not high, but at least there is one of each type."

Yang Meiren's body was shaken, and she could not suppress a look of astonishment on her face when she looked at the many materials placed on the table. Maybe others didn't know the difficulty of refining these materials, but as a seventh-level heavenly master, she knew these materials very well.

Even an ordinary seventh-level Celestial Master would find it very difficult to refine it, but Lu An, who is only a mere fourth-level Celestial Master, could actually refine it!

She originally had no hope for Lu An, just because he was her master and she would do whatever he wanted, even though Lu An's alchemy ability was not low. But when she really saw these materials, she was completely

Changed my mind.

"These...were all purified with your flames?" Yang Meiren looked at Lu An, took a deep breath and asked.

"Yeah." Lu An nodded and said, "It's much easier to purify these than I thought. I didn't expect that I could successfully refine them."

Yang Meiren glanced at Lu An, and the shock in her heart was beyond what Lu An could imagine. Although she already knew that Lu An's flame was very powerful, even stronger than she knew the strongest flame in the world. From the last time she was in the Medicine God Kingdom,

She was sure when Lu An used flames to burn the Zhitian Divine Tree. But this time, Lu An's flames once again made her feel powerful.

Lu An has twin life wheels, which Yang Meiren knew from the very beginning. Yang Meiren knew very well where his Xuan Shen Ice came from, and now it seems that this flame can coexist with Xuan Shen Ice.

One place may have a deeper meaning.

"By the way, have you bought the other two materials?" Lu An suddenly asked.

Yang Meiren's body trembled slightly, she came back to her senses, and said, "I just came back from Medicine God Kingdom. I haven't returned to Purple Lake City yet, but I'm looking for the owner first. But it should be about the same. Although these two materials are precious, they are not impossible to buy.

Something that arrived.”

Lu An nodded when he heard this and said, "If there is any, send it over. I want to see if I can continue to refine it."

"Yes." Yang Meiren nodded and talked to Lu An for a while before leaving.

Lu An continued to look at the pill chart, but about half an hour later, there was a knock on his door. Lu An was slightly startled, put the pill chart away, and said loudly, "Please come in!"

The door was pushed open, and a soldier walked in respectfully and said, "Deputy battalion commander, the general invites you."

Lu An nodded slightly when he heard this and said, "I understand."

In Guangyu City, except for a few people who were in the meeting hall that day, no one knew his identity, and those people did not dare to tell anyone under his order. After all, the former general was still in prison, and no one could

Don't dare to be presumptuous.

Lu An did not delay and went directly to the meeting hall and found that almost everyone was here. Liu Huairen and Nie Han quickly stood up to greet Lu An when they saw him. Lu An signaled that they didn't have to go to such trouble and waved everyone to sit down.

"I wonder what happened to ask me to come here?" Lu An looked at Liu Huairen and asked.

"That's right." Liu Huairen nodded and said with a serious expression, "There was an order from above. After learning that the three fifth-level enemy Celestial Masters who were confronting us were all killed, they were to send us to attack and create a breakthrough on the side.

.In this way, the enemy will have to transfer people from other garrisons, and other places will be less stressed."

Lu An nodded slightly when he heard this, but then said, "It is indeed possible. It is not difficult for us to break through the enemy head-on, but won't doing so break the balance?"

Liu Huairen looked at Lu An and could not help but feel a flash of appreciation in his eyes. He nodded and said, "Yes. Now we have always been on the defensive side.

All the borders of Shang Qi have never taken the initiative to counterattack. Now the other side has been in a state of confrontation with us. Although there have been wars, there has been no major breakthrough because the lord of Purple Lake City is deliberately restraining. I am afraid that our proactive attack this time will be counterproductive.

, so that the enemy will no longer continue the confrontation and take the initiative to attack."

Lu An frowned and nodded. He also thought so. This kind of balance is necessary for the alliance's situation. They need time to breathe, and he also needs time to refine elixirs.

"However, I have reported to the above that their order is still to attack." Liu Huairen frowned and said, "They believe that places like ours where the main conflict is not frontal will not make the enemy lose patience."

"..."

Lu An's brows deepened. Such behavior is undoubtedly gambling. Although the chance of losing is small, it does not mean that it does not exist.

"Whose order is this?" Lu An asked.

"They are senior officials of Shang Qi State." Liu Huairen replied immediately.

Lu An's face darkened. It was indeed not an order from Purple Lake City. However, frontline command still had to rely on their respective countries, and Purple Lake City simply could not take care of so many places.

Lu An did have the right to speak to stop this attack, but he hesitated. He did not understand military affairs. Although Liu Huairen knew military affairs well, there may not be anyone at the top who could see the situation more clearly. Lu An did not want his ignorance to let go

He came to control the battle situation, looked at Liu Huairen and asked, "What does the general think should be done?"

Liu Huairen frowned when he heard this, thought for a moment, took a deep breath, and said, "Without you, the military orders are like mountains, and I will obey them."

Lu An nodded and said, "Then follow the arrangements from above and organize an active attack on the enemy."

"Okay!" Liu Huairen nodded, thought for a moment and then looked at Lu An and asked, "City Lord Lu...can he go to battle?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room looked at Lu An. Lu An's strength was obvious to everyone. If Lu An was there, they would be able to completely relax and attack.

Lu An was startled, then looked at everyone and smiled and said, "As the deputy commander of the Tianshi Battalion, of course I will go to war."
