"I appreciate Sect Master Qin's kindness. However, I have many tasks to attend to, and I fear I cannot stay long at the Fire Cloud Sect."
To Qin Ming's great surprise, Fang Bai did not show any excitement or enthusiasm towards his proposal; instead, he smiled and politely declined.
Qin Ming couldn't help but feel deeply disappointed and sighed with regret, "That's such a pity..."
Fang Bai, still smiling, continued, "Before I leave, I can exchange some thoughts on alchemy with several alchemists in the sect. I'm sure they will make great progress in the Alchemy Dao in the future."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming's regret turned into joy.
The elders and stewards of the Fire Cloud Sect, who were also alchemists, all showed excitement, stepping forward one after another to express their gratitude.
Qin Ming and the others knew that with Fang Bai's alchemy technique, what he called "exchange" was actually guidance.
