Chapter 55 The Alchemy Master Questions Life
“Master, stop refining those trash pills. I’m not trying to discourage you, but given your current condition, you won’t be able to refine them even after another five thousand years.”
Geng Yu shouted loudly, "Master, if you don't come out, I'll blow up your alchemy room!"
You heartless old man, your precious apprentice was almost killed, and you didn't even come out to check.
You cold-blooded old man!
You are heartless!
You are ungrateful!
He wiped away imaginary tears with his sleeve, squatted down, slapped his thigh, and cried out, "If I had known you were such a stinky old man, I would have gone with my master to eat and drink the good life."
A surge of energy emanated from the alchemy room.
Like an ape evolving into a human, Geng Yu ran and stood up, fleeing the scene at breakneck speed.
"Geng Yu, you little brat, just you wait!"
"boom!"
I heard an explosion.
Geng Yu placed his hand on his forehead and gazed at the alchemy room emitting plumes of black smoke.
"Tsk tsk! Looks like the old man failed again. What a waste!"
Seeing a dark mass hurtling towards him at incredible speed in the distance, Geng Yu turned and ran.
"Sect Master, help! Please save the sect's most talented and promising alchemy master! Someone is trying to destroy the future of the Lingyun Sect! Ah! Help!"
"You little brat, stop right there!"
With a roar like a lion, the entire Lingyun Sect trembled.
You chase me, I run; there's no escaping you.
"If you don't chase me, I'll stop here."
"Stop right there, and I won't chase you."
The disciples of Lingyun Sect had become accustomed to it.
The two tacitly refrained from using their spiritual power as they moved among the disciples.
"How long do you think it will take Elder Mu to capture Junior Brother Geng this time?"
"If I remember correctly, it took the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to reach that point half a year ago. Now that Junior Brother Geng's cultivation has improved, I guess it still takes the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"
"You know how to talk nonsense. You didn't use spiritual power, so it's not really related to your cultivation level. I'll guess it'll be a quarter of an hour."
“You guys are really underestimating Junior Brother Geng. I guess he’ll only last for a cup of tea.”
"If you ask me, I'm the only one in the world who truly understands Junior Brother Geng. He's not long-lasting enough; even half a cup of tea takes too long!"
"You seem to know so much about this, have you tried it?"
Upon hearing these words, Geng Yu, who had been captured, replied dejectedly, "Sigh! It's even shorter than you imagined!"
Zhong Qi: ...
Listen to what you're saying!
Zhong Qi greeted him respectfully: "Uncle Mu!"
Elder Mu rolled his eyes and said in an unfriendly tone, "You brat, you come along too!"
He grabbed Geng Yu by the collar and dragged him back to the alchemy room.
Zhong Qi cast a cleaning spell, and the house, which was originally covered in medicinal residue, became clean and tidy.
Feeling a bit better, he moved a wooden stool to a corner and waited for the master and apprentice to reach their explosive phase.
Hey!
Everyone in the sect is used to it!
"You brat, if it weren't for your constant whining outside today, your master would have succeeded!"
The same start.
"You old codger, you wouldn't have succeeded without me. Your skills are lacking, and instead of looking for the reasons within yourself, you only know how to blame this innocent genius."
The same response.
"My alchemy skills are terrible, so don't have been crying and begging to become my apprentice!"
The same disdain.
"Did I want to become your disciple? Have some shame! I was just young and accidentally tripped and fell in front of you, knocking out a front tooth and crying. Don't wrong me, I didn't beg you to become my disciple."
The same grievance.
"Hmph, I don't care. You've already knelt down and cried, you're just begging me to become your disciple!"
Equally shameless.
Zhong Qi shook his head. Uncle Mu is doomed!
"Forget it, I originally wanted you to become her apprentice, but since you're unwilling, I'll just have to do it myself. Hehe!"
"From now on, when I fill every batch of pills, don't come crying and begging me to teach you, hmph!"
Geng Yu arrogantly raised her chin, glancing disdainfully at her master.
Elder Mu turned to Zhong Qi, seeking confirmation: "Is what this little brat is saying true?"
Zhong Qi nodded.
it is finally over.
In the past, it would take at least a hundred rounds of back-and-forth to win a fight.
Tushan is my savior.
Thank you to her, and may she have many more spirit stones.
I also wish myself lots of spirit stones.
Elder Mu looked at them suspiciously: "Did you see her refine it with your own eyes?"
Geng Yu patted his chest and assured her, "Of course, I even helped you become her disciple on the spot, but unfortunately she refused."
"What? I, a dignified eighth-level alchemist, want to become her apprentice, and she refuses?"
"Yes, she refused because she heard you were poor."
I want to earn more spirit stones in the future. If she doesn't want to take you as her disciple, she can take me as her grand-disciple.
When I reach full capacity in the furnace, you'll have to call me Master, hehehe!
Elder Mu saw Geng Yu's silly expression and slapped him.
"Wake up! What sweet dreams are you having in broad daylight!"
Geng Yu covered the back of her head, looking aggrieved, and said, "I'm telling the truth, you old geezer. If you knew her abilities, you would be very surprised."
Elder Mu glanced at him and said disdainfully, "Oh? I don't believe it!"
Geng Yu was furious: "Hey! Would I lie to you? Let me tell you, she can refine a full batch of mid-grade third-level pills at the fourth level of Qi Refining."
Elder Mu looked at Geng Yu with suspicion, then at Zhong Qi.
The two nodded affirmatively.
Elder Mu was questioning the meaning of life.
What was he doing when he reached the fourth level of Qi Refining?
How to identify spiritual plants?
Light a fire?
What are the different grades of alchemy?
These two little brats aren't working together to scam people, are they?
"You old geezer, what kind of look is that? You...you don't believe me? Am I still your precious disciple?"
Elder Mu rolled his eyes and coldly uttered a single word: "Get lost."
"Fine, fine, fine, I've followed you for so many years, and you actually don't believe me? You even told me to get lost. Aren't you afraid I'll go far away and never come back?"
With red eyes, Geng Yu cried to Elder Mu.
Zhong Qi: Can you two stop acting and let's get down to business?
Elder Mu caught a glimpse of Zhong Qi's seemingly all-knowing expression and felt a slight pang of guilt.
How can you blame him?
Having lived for three hundred years, spending every day either cultivating or refining pills, he finally has a little brat to play with. How could he not play with him and live with his conscience?
In a few years, when the little rascal grows up a bit more, he'll definitely act all pretentious like everyone else, and won't be as lively and cute as he is now.
This is so frustrating!
Ok?
Did we just overlook some important information?
Qi Refining Level 4?
When did such a peerless genius like him reach the fourth level of Qi Refining?
Elder Mu patted his head.
Yes, he entered the Lingyun Sect at the age of ten and reached the fourth level of Qi Refining at the age of twelve.
The little rascal is also twelve years old.
The other person with facial paralysis is thirteen years old. He entered the sect at the same time as the little brat, but is a year older than the little brat.
They both have decent talent, just a little bit less than him.
Despite his constant antics and lively personality, this little rascal doesn't really care about many people.
On the surface, they seem to get along well with everyone, but in reality, they don't get along well with anyone.
Hey!
That little brat is such a good actor, what can he do about it?
As for the other one, he didn't even bother to pretend; he just had a cold face that kept everyone at arm's length.
In his words, "Time is life, and he wants to cultivate himself; he doesn't want to waste his life by being hypocritical."
There aren't many people who can truly convince these two brats.
He wanted to see if that person was really as powerful as they said.
