After they entered, they were taken to Bai Jingshen himself, who was chilling in the garden again, alongside his 7 wives and concubines. Scarlet was there as well close to them.

“You are back,” Bai Jingshen said as soon as Alex and the rest arrived in the garden. “Oh, and you’ve brought your mother back this time around.”

“Greetings, seniors,” Helen bowed toward the ruler of the Western Continent and his wives.

“You haven’t improved since you left,” Bai Jingshen said. “If that was the case, you shouldn’t have left at all.”

“It’s… it’s alright,” Helen said.

“Mother,” Alex called out and brought her over to Scarlet. “This is Scarlet, the phoenix I told you about.”

“Oh,” Helen reacted quickly. She bowed once more. “Greetings, senior. I am Alex’s mother, Helen.”

Scarlet looked toward Helen and got up. “Greetings,” she spoke. “You do not have to call me senior. I am bonded with your son, so we can be considered as close as a family.”

“Then…”

“Just call me Scarlet,” Scarlet said. “Your husband does so anyway. Speaking of which, where is your father, Alex? And your daughter?”

“They’re in the city with my clone. They won’t be coming until the end,” Alex explained. He quickly turned around to Bai Jingshen and asked, “How’s Pearl? Any news?”

The White Tiger shook his head. “He hasn’t come out yet,” he said.

“Any idea when he will come out then?” Alex asked.

“Can’t tell,” Bai Jingshen said.

“Do you not know how far along he’s progressed?” Alex asked.

“That’s… not how evolution works in this case,” Bai Jingshen said. “If it were normal evolution, he would have slowly progressed through the evolution. But since he is trying to do it forcefully, the evolution will be almost instantaneous. As for when it will be, that is something only a seer would be able to divine.”

“I see,” Alex said. “So it basically all up to luck, huh?”

He sighed a little but didn’t lose hope. He knew Pearl and he knew how hard-working he was. He wasn’t going to give up so easily and would definitely come out sooner or later.

Bai Jingshen watched Alex’s face grow resolute after hearing the news and smiled slightly. “Right, here you go,” he said while bringing out some things.

Alex looked at what was brought out and his eyes widened slightly. “You found it?” he asked excitedly.

“It was a little hard to find, but I did so in the end,” Bai Jingshen said. “I had to send my beasts throughout the land to search for one of that ingredient.”

Alex took the pile of boxes that Bai Jingshen had given him and looked through each of them to check through the ingredients. Every single one of the ingredients he needed was all there, including something he could not find in the Southern Continent at all.

“Thank you,” Alex said sincerely.

Bai Jingshen nodded and gestured to the pile of ingredients. “What are they for exactly? Some sort of pills?” he asked.

“Pills? No, they’re not for pills,” Alex said. “I’m going to make pastes out of them.”

Bai Jingshen paused for a moment and even Scarlet turned her head. Liz and Helen looked confused as well.

“Why are you making a paste? Pills are obviously superior,” Bai Jingshen said.

“Yes, but what I’m doing requires pastes instead of pills,” Alex said.

“What exactly are you doing?” Scarlet asked. She was quite curious as well.

Alex took a moment to quickly go through his head to see if it was a good idea to tell what he was going to do. In the end, he saw no reason to hide it.

“I’m going to help my family learn an eye skill that will improve their eyes massively,” Alex said.

“Hmm, an eye technique huh? Not bad,” Bai Jingshen said. “Is it good?”

“Very,” Alex said.

“Can I learn it too then?” Bai Jingshen asked.

Alex paused for a second again. “I’m not sure if you can learn it. It requires one to destroy their eyes using this paste and heal them back to become much better than it originally was. The technique primarily works on human and devil eyes, so I’m not sure if beasts can use it or not,” he said.

“Don’t worry,” Bai Jingshen said. “I will simply remain in my human form while I make use of that paste. That’s assuming it works on me at all.”

“Hmm, this paste might be too weak for you,” Alex said. “It’s better if you skip it until I try and find some Immortal ingredients that can be used as substitutes to improve the level of the paste. You can give it a go then.”

“Hmm, if I am going to need pastes corresponding to my cultivation base, then I’m going to have to wait for a long time,” Bai Jingshen said.

“Hopefully, I can go to the Immortal realms soon. By the time you can go back to your land of the Blessed Sun, I should have done it all,” Alex said.

“I still doubt it, but I suppose it won’t hurt to just wait and see if you can do what you said,” Bai Jingshen said. “Anyway, now that I’ve given you what you want, time for you to keep your end of the promise.”

“Don’t worry, brother Shen. I will make all the pills you need. In fact, I am going to make such good pills that you will definitely want more from me in the future,” Alex said proudly.

“Well, you are already quite proud of your pill it seems. Whether your pride is justified or not, we’ll see,” Bai Jingshen said. “Nuanhuo has told me your alchemy level has increased quite a lot since the days I was with you, so I’m curious to see what sort of pills you will make.”

“Okay,” Alex said. “I will make one soon.”

“Not one,” Bai Jingshen said. “I have all the ingredients prepared, so you should make as many as you can.”

“Oh,” Alex was surprised. “Do you want me to make them as right now?”

“The sooner you do the better,” Bai Jingshen said. “In fact, the sooner you make them…”

Bai Jingshen pulled out something from his storage artifact and put it in front of him.

“… the sooner you will get this.”

Alex didn’t even have to look at it before his nose caught a hint of what it was. The thick scent of blood drifted around the air, letting everyone know what it was.

“This is… did you really gather all the blood?” Alex asked.

“I asked every Saint beast to give me as much blood as they could. At the same time, my wives and I gave some of our own blood as well,” Bai Jingshen said. “How good will this do for you?”

Alex couldn’t help but smile when he saw that.

“It’s great,” Alex said. “Blood without Blood Essence is significantly worse than Blood with Blood Essence, but the overall quality of this should still be way better than what I’m used to since it has 8 different Immortal’s blood in here.”
