C24 Face-smacking
"Hey!" "He doesn't have the slightest bit of common knowledge in pill refining. He's just messing around."
"That's all. Let's not even talk about the ancient Pill. Even if it's an ordinary first stage Body Tempering Pill, let's see how he will deal with this later."
"He is a pretty boy, so he should naturally have Miss Lu's Pill And Artifact Tower. I really don't know what point Miss Lu has taken a fancy to him."
...
The group of officials all whispered amongst themselves, occasionally letting out ridiculing laughter, and some of them even thought that Qi Tianyu had been raised by Lu Qiuyue.
Lu Qiuyue's eyes were filled with coldness, although the discussions were quiet, she was still able to hear some of it.
"Why is this fellow so reckless!"
Lu Qiuyue was a little angry in her heart, because what the ministers said was reasonable. Refining medicinal ingredients should have been done one by one.
This was because different medicinal herbs had different medicinal properties, so it was highly likely for them to clash with each other. It would be weird if someone like Qi Tianyu could throw all of the medicinal ingredients into the furnace in one go.
Even with his grandfather's tier 4 apothecary level, he didn't dare to do such a thing because it was too difficult to control.
Only an apothecary of Zongshi realm or above would possess such incredible control.
Originally, she was full of confidence in Qi Tianyu, but she never thought that the latter would actually be so reckless.
King Xiao Dingtian did not speak and sat on the golden dragon throne. His sharp eyes flashed between Qi Tianyu and Lu Qiuyue, as if guessing the relationship between the two of them.
"The Crown Prince is exaggerating too much."
Wang Yan forced a smile and looked at the Third Elder. The latter shook her head helplessly, she also agreed with Wang Yan.
The two of them were anxious. They did not expect the current situation to be like this. They did not know what would happen next.
"Humph!" You actually dare to pretend to be a master in front of the King, if you can't refine it later, let's see how you will withstand the anger of the King. "
Prime minister Liu Qishan secretly sneered, killing intent in his eyes.
If Qi Tianyu was not able to refine the Ancient Pill, even if he had a deep relationship with Lu Qiuyue, he would still be unable to escape his punishment.
Pill And Artifact Tower had always been superior to others, and would not interfere in the internal affairs of Nanyang Kingdom.
Regardless of the discussions of the others, Qi Tianyu could not be bothered with them, he focused his mind on the pill furnace in front of him.
At this moment, any rebuttal would be futile, and one could only use facts to viciously slap at one's face.
In the past, he could already refine Foundation Building Pill with just the help of an Apprentice level, let alone now, with the help of a Strange Fire of Heaven And Earth.
A large amount of medicinal ingredients was thrown into the furnace and quickly refined under the cover of the Geocentric Fire. The pure medicinal effects were refined wave after wave and then merged together in an ingenious manner.
"Clang clang!"
The effects of the pill were immense, causing the pill furnace to sway from the impact.
"Haha, look, the furnace is about to explode. Everyone, it's better to stand far away to avoid being affected."
Seeing that, Master Xiao laughed out loud. According to his experience, this was a sign of a furnace explosion.
With him in the lead, the officials quickly rushed to the main hall's door.
As for Xiao Dingtian, who was seated on the golden dragon throne, his gaze also gradually turned cold.
However, the expected explosion did not happen. The shaking pill furnace quickly calmed down.
"So he actually refined a type of Strange Fire of Heaven And Earth. No wonder he dared to do this!"
Lu Qiuyue's eyes suddenly shone, bringing along a trace of shock. She had finally seen how extraordinary the flames Qi Tianyu had released were.
This was actually a kind of Strange Fire of Heaven And Earth. To any pill master, this was a supreme treasure.
You have to understand that even her grandfather was unable to own a Strange Fire of Heaven And Earth.
"Hmm? This seems to be a Geocentric Fire, could it be … "
Lu Qiuyue raised her eyebrows, and suddenly thought of the Pyretic Pulse under the Pill And Artifact Tower.
It was just that it was too deep, so no one could go in, so they were not sure.
"Eh? Why didn't it explode! "
"Strange, just now I felt a very violent energy that was about to burst out. Why did it suddenly calm down?"
...
The initial signs of an explosion suddenly disappeared, which caused the officials to feel strange. However, they did not dare to approach.
"This... "Impossible!"
Even the Master Xiao was alarmed and felt uneasy, but he immediately denied it.
What a joke! With so many medicinal herbs thrown in at once, how could it possibly be perfectly refined?
"Buzz!"
However, at this moment, the pill furnace trembled. The lid of the furnace opened a crack, and a faint medicinal fragrance wafted out.
"Why is it so fragrant?" Eh? It seems to be coming from the pill furnace. "
"This is a medicinal fragrance, I have never smelled such a pleasant medicinal fragrance, could it be that the Pill has refined it?"
"This Qi Tianyu was actually able to refine it? How could he be so fast? "
...
The officials immediately surrounded him and stretched out their necks, staring with their eyes wide, eager to see what was going on inside the pill furnace.
"This is impossible. It must be an illusion."
Xiao Wanfeng felt his entire body turning cold, his eyes staring wide, no matter how hard he tried to shake his head, he could not shake off the shock on his face.
"Qi Tianyu, did you really succeed in refining the Pill?"
Even the King, Xiao Dingtian, had suddenly stood up from his Golden Dragon Throne.
"That's right!" The Pill has become a success! "
Qi Tianyu nodded, his expression calm.
"Impossible!" How could you refine a Pill in such a short period of time? Even if it's me, it would take at least two hours to form a pill. "
Xiao Wanfeng cried out. He was the first to be unable to accept it, like a cat whose tail has been stepped on.
From the time the pill furnace had been quiet until now, it had only taken a moment to realize that the Pill had actually become something? This was too fast, it did not make sense.
However, when the pill furnace was opened, and the three round Pill appeared in front of everyone, his questioning voice immediately became extremely pale.
Qi Tianyu glanced at the dumbstruck Xiao Wanfeng, a trace of disdain appearing on his face as he said, "Don't use your tortoise's speed as my standard."
"You!"
Xiao Wanfeng was so angry that his face turned green, his trembling hands pointed at Qi Tianyu.
This sentence was simply tyrannical to him. He, a dignified Third Grade alchemist, was actually ridiculed by a junior for refining pills too slowly. Where would he put his face?
However, the truth was right in front of him, making him unable to refute it. This person's speed was just that fast, completely dominating dozens of streets away from him.
"How is this possible? This little brat really refined a pill. "
Prime Minister Liu Qishan's face turned gloomy, he never thought that this young man would actually hide his strength so deeply.
He was sixteen years old, had a powerful secret technique, and his fighting strength was comparable to the Yellow-rank Expert. Now that he had changed, he was once again a respected alchemist.
Just the thought of such a terrifying Inherent skill made his scalp tingle.
"The crown prince actually refined a Pill. Damn, so he wasn't bragging."
Wang Yan was at a loss for words, and could not help but curse.
"This kid has been keeping us in the dark for a long time."
The Third Elder shook his head with a bitter smile. The shock in his heart was no less than anyone else's.
Could it be that Marquis TIanyi had already secretly groomed him, or perhaps his son had some fortuitous encounter, the Third Elder guessed in his heart.
In the main hall, the officials were in an uproar. The ruckus was like a market.
Originally, they were all prepared to watch a good show. No one believed that Qi Tianyu was really a pill refiner, and that he even wanted to refine an Ancient Pill.
However, reality slapped them hard in the face. The crown prince had actually refined a Pill, and at such a high speed at that. It was simply unbelievable.
"Quiet!"
King Xiao Dingtian shouted coldly, calming the hall down. He then walked over seriously and asked, "This is the Foundation Building Pill?"
"It's the real deal!" Foundation Building Pill s are a type of Body Refinement Pellet exclusive to Ancient Warriors. When used for the first time, it can at least raise one's physical strength to ten thousand kilograms. "
Qi Tianyu said.
"Nonsense, in such a short period of time, how could you refine such an ancient Pill? You must have used a Body Tempering Pill to disguise yourself."
At this time, Xiao Wanfeng jumped out again. He still did not believe that with his abnormally fast speed, Qi Tianyu could refine the legendary Ancient Pill.
Therefore, he thought that Qi Tianyu was just using the Body Tempering Pill to fool others.
"Master Xiao is an alchemist with Third Grade, he definitely won't admit his fault. This brat will definitely use the Body Tempering Pill to trick us, I hope King will understand."
Liu Qishan also jumped out right after. Right now, he could be considered to be on the same boat as Xiao Wanfeng, so they had to hug tightly.
Thus, when he saw how confident Xiao Wanfeng was, he hurriedly stepped forward and agreed.
"The Prime Minister is right, as an alchemist of the Third Grade, he should not have made such a low level mistake in recognizing the wrong Pill. Since that's the case, you can find someone to test your medicine. "
When Qi Tianyu saw that Liu Qishan had come out to help, he was immediately overjoyed.
"Father, Yu'er is willing to test the medicine."
Suddenly, Seventh Princess Xiao Yu walked over and bowed towards King.
Qi Tianyu looked at the Seventh Princess strangely, unable to understand why this arrogant girl would come out to test her medicine.
"Yu'er, you mustn't. You have a body of gold, you can't be in danger."
Xiao Wanfeng hurriedly said.
"Master Xiao just said that I'm a Body Tempering Pill. How did it become poison in your mouth?"
Qi Tianyu could not help but laugh.
"I …"
Xiao Wanfeng was speechless.
Seeing that, the King nodded, he was not worried about what poison it was. Otherwise, if something were to happen to the Seventh Princess, Qi Tianyu would not be able to escape his responsibility.
Under the nervous and expectant gazes of the crowd, the Seventh Princess took a Pill and directly consumed it. Then, with the help of the King, she quickly refined it.
A moment later, a powerful aura emanated from the Seventh Princess.
Her Cultivation Level had not changed, and she was still at the late stage of Intermediate Realm. However, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that she seemed to have undergone a shocking transformation.
