Chapter 223
"But, that wild and violent energy?" Guardian Zhuo asked, and he was still extremely worried. He
pointed to the gust of energy that was hovering above the furnace like a dragon.
Fade Chen didn''t speak. He shot out several beams of energy with his right hand. Like chains, they
bound the dragon which was flying in the air. Then he put forth his strength with his fingers, and the
chain instantly tightened.The roaring dragon was pulled back into the Magic Furnace.
Then, Fade quickly patted the Magic Furnace with his left hand. The liquid in the furnace captured
the energy, and the furnace rotated, freezing the dragon.
Finally, Fade pped on the furnace, and dozens of ck pills in the size of fingernails popped out.
He immediately picked up a jade te and raised his arm in the air. Then, he put all the pills
perfectly in position on the te.
Putting the jade te on the wooden table beside him, Fade said to Guardian Zhuo with a smile,
"Guardian, the Inner Strength Pills are ready!"
Guardian Zhuo looked at the round and fragrant pills on the jade te. His mouth and his eyes
were wide open as he looked at this scene in disbelief.He said, "Are these really Inner Strength
Pills?"
"Of course! Without the Catalpa branch, they''ll be less effective though," Fade said with a smile.
"This, this is incredible. Mr. Chen, your alchemy technique is really superb. I can''t describe it in
words," Guardian Zhuo said in excitement.
Outside, Elder Chai and the others, who witnessed this bizarre situation, walked over curiously.
When they saw the pills on the jade te and heard Guardian Zhuo''s words, they immediately
understood what had happened.They looked at Fade in disbelief.
"Well, Mr. Chen, how did you achieve this?"they asked.
"Yes, the Magic Furnace was about to explode. But, you controlled the burning energy and
sessfully refined the pills which were ruined beforehand. This, this is perfection!"someone said.
All the elders were moved. Fade smiled and gestured his hand, saying nothing.
After that, Guardian Zhuo and the others expressed their gratitude to Fade. They were willing to
present all the treasures in the n to him, allowing him to choose a present.
Fade''s kindness to them was not just due to his refinement of pills. He had rescued Guardian
Donovan Zhuo and the foundations of Cloud n. Without his help, half of the n would have
been destroyed.
Therefore, Fade''s kindness and actions had protected Cloud n. He had killed Feather Gu,
returned the Cloud-reaching Skill booklet, and spotted the hidden traitor Elder Hu. Fade had saved
Cloud n, from a huge crisis, all by himself.
No wonder Guardian Zhuo and the others were so moved, and they had great respect for Fade.
Fade declined Guardian Zhuo''s offers of gratitude. He excused himself, saying that it was already
late and that he was ready to go back to rest.
But just as he was about to leave, a unique scent wafted into his nose.Then, he looked at the fire
below the Magic Furnace.
"Mr. Chen, is anything the matter?" Guardian Zhuo asked.
Fade stared at the fire and said, "Guardian Zhuo, where did these mes under the furnacee
from?"
Guardian Zhuo was surprised. He wondered why would Fade inquire about this matter. He replied,
"At the back of the mountain, there is a hot spring. Below the hot spring, the ground is scorching
hot. We have investigated the matter, and we discoveredva underneath the ground. Therefore,
we dug a tunnel, allowed theva to seep out, and built this fire ce."
"Mr. Chen, is there something wrong with the firece?" Guardian Zhuo asked.
"Nothing at all!" Fade shook his head and said nothing. Then he turned and left.
After everyone left the back of the mountain, Guardian Zhuo returned to the side hall and found out
that Elder Hu was a spy. He was instantly angry, and then he was grateful to Fade.
Finally, Guardian Zhuo, along with Elder Chai and the others, sent Fade back to the resting area.
Then, while Guardian Zhuo was dealing with matters in the n, he asked disciples to open the
gates and let the people waiting for medicine toe in.
They were busy until around midnight. The entire Cloud n was aze with lights, and the ce
was bustling.
At dawn the next morning, the entrance of Cloud n was full of people. As time passed, more
people gathered in front of the mountain gate.
As the sky- worshipping ceremony of the Cloud n would be held today, many people came to the
mountain.
The Cloud n had mobilized almost all the disciples for this event. They began to prepare for the
ceremony, entertaining guests and dealing with other relevant matters.
During the busy time, Elder Chai came to look for Fade. He wanted to arrange for Fade to be an
honored guest of the Cloud n, as a gesture of respect.
Fade declined his kind offer and told them that he would just sit with the general public. Then, he
took seats next to Winnie Huo, Old Mr Liu and the others.
Before ten o''clock, thousands of people had gathered on the mountain. People came from all over
the country to acquire medicine. There were envoys from other ns who came to congratte
them, and local officials as well.
Sharp at ten o''clock in the morning, a melodious bell was struck and the ringing sound indicated the
official start of the Cloud n Sky-worshiping ceremony.

The noisy crowd became quiet. Guardian
Zhuo wore a brand- new robe, and he proceeded to walk out with the elders and disciples. His
expression was serious. Then, a sophisticated and majestic ceremonymenced.
Although the public didn''t know much about the ceremony, theirmanding presence,respectful
attitude and the solemn atmosphere of the procession caused everyone to feel a sense of great
power and authority.
After the opening procession, the disciples of Cloud n took their seats. Guardian Zhuo went up
to the stage and briefly announced the order of events. He also spoke of his high expectations for
the future of the n, and expressed his gratitude to everyone who had supported Cloud n.
After an eloquent speech, the Cloud n was officially proimed as a ck Level n. Instantly,
warm apuse could be heard.
Finally, the event that everyone was anticipating wouldmence, the Cloud n would start
distributing medicine to the crowd.
For some time, hundreds of people were bustling with noise and excitement.
The Cloud n was experienced in this matter, so they were not in a hurry. The elders and
disciples proceeded in an orderly fashion and inquired about the relevant information of each
person who requested for medicine. Then, they handed out the medicine to the person without
charge.
Many people who obtained the medicine were so excited that they knelt down and groveled in front
of members of the n. They were truly grateful. They even burst into tears. The scene at the
ceremony was lively and full of enthusiasm.
Because there were too many people rushing forward, Winnie Huo was not willing to go forward
with them, due to her identity. She sat in her seat next to Fade and remained still.
