Chapter 931 - Becoming an Alchemist "Since you're able to endure the pain and nothing seems to be wrong, I will leave you alone and go concoct some pills. How long will you be staying there? A single pill can last you a week even if you are soaked in it the entire time." Wang Xiuying asked him. "I'll temper my body for a few hours. It would be a waste of money if I leave so quickly," he said. "Okay. Have fun." Wang Xiuying went to her room to concoct pills. Three hours later, Yuan opened his eyes and looked at the clear water with raised eyebrows, "I thought she said that it'd last a week. It's only been three hours since I started and the medicine is already all gone." Yuan mumbled in a low voice. "Young Master, did you already forget? You have a special body and incredible talents. It's only natural that you'd absorb the medicine much quicker than others." Feng Yuxiang said. "I'm well aware of that, but when it takes only a few short hours to absorb a week's worth of medicine... At this rate, I will need to buy a lot of Body Tempering Pills. I don't even dare to imagine how much money it will cost me if I want to temper my body for 1 month." Yuan sighed. "The most efficient way to save money on pills is to concoct them yourself. Although the ingredients are costly as well, you can easily make a profit with a single decent pill. If you concoct two pills and sell one of them you'll gain enough money to buy ingredients to concoct another two or three pills, even more if the pill is of high quality." Feng Yuxiang said. Yuan sighed, "So you're telling me to become an Alchemist and concoct the pills myself? I wanted to be an Alchemist at one point, but after learning the process, I gave up on that thought." "No offense to Xiuying and all of the Alchemists out there, but I just find it way too boring. Honestly, if I wasn't able to consume monster cores and raise my cultivation that way, I would've hated cultivation." Feng Yuxiang began pondering after hearing Yuan's words. "I have a suggestion," she said a moment later, and she continued, "If the Young Master refuses to do Alchemy, why don't I concoct pills for you?" "Huh?" Yuan looked at her with wide eyes. "You want to concoct pills for me? Do you know how to concoct pills?" She shook her head, "No, I have never concocted a pill before, nor do I have any experience in Alchemy." "Then how are you going to concoct pills? I can't ask you to learn Alchemy just to help me save money. That's too much." Yuan rejected her idea. Feng Yuxiang then said, "Actually, even if I don't have any experience, I am very confident in my abilities to concoct pills. After all, a large part of Alchemy is basically how well one can control their flames." "I may be a young phoenix, but I am very confident in my mastery over my own flames. Furthermore, my phoenix flame can rival even the best Alchemy Flames out there. I meet pretty much every necessary requisite for an Alchemist— a powerful fire, perfect control over that fire, and I also have extensive knowledge on medicine and herbs because of my previous occupation. If you ask me, I am essentially an Alchemist already." Yuan stared at her with a look of disbelief, and he mumbled in a low voice, "If you put it that way…" "Now I just need to successfully concoct a pill. Once that is done, I can call myself an Alchemist and start concocting pills for you! I will be right back, Young Master! You can go ahead and try out the Tier 5 Body Tempering Pill." "Where are you going?" He asked out of curiosity. "I'm going to borrow your friend's cauldron and try to concoct a pill!" After saying that, Feng Yuxiang left the room and went to find Wang Xiuying, who was practicing Tier 4 pills in her own room. "71 percent purity… Haaaa… It'll probably take me another month before I can concoct Tier 4 pills with over 90 percent purity…" Wang Xiuying sighed. Despite already having the ability to concoct Tier 4 pills without failing 10 out of 10 times, she won't consider it a success until she can concoct a Tier 4 pill with over 90 percent purity. In fact, she refuses to touch Tier 5 pills until she can 'successfully' concoct a Tier 4 pill. This stubbornness has caused her Master plenty of headaches. "Alright! Let's try again!" However, Feng Yuxiang knocked on her door right as she stood up to gather more ingredients. "Hm? Did something happen to Yuan?" Wang Xiuying asked after seeing Feng Yuxiang standing outside her room.𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮 "No, I came here because I have a request. Can you concoct a Body Tempering Pill for me? I also want to watch you make it." "I don't mind, but can I ask why? Yuan is already using Tier 4 Body Tempering Pills while I can only concoct Tier 3 Body Tempering Pills." "I want to see if I can concoct a pill." Feng Yuxiang said. "Eh?" Wang Xiuying raised her eyebrows in a questioning manner. "Are you an Alchemist as well? I mean, you do have a very powerful fire…" "No, I am not… yet." "I-Is that so… I guess I can concoct a Tier 3 Body Tempering Pill for you." Wang Xiuying accepted her request. "Thank you." While Wang Xiuying gathered the ingredients, Feng Yuxiang took a seat in front of the cauldron right beside where Wang Xiuying will be seated. Once Wang Xiuying was seated and began concocting the pill, Feng Yuxiang paid close attention to her Alchemy Flame. From the temperature of Wang Xiuying's Alchemy Flame to the way she adjusted its intensity— Feng Yuxiang memorized all of it with a single glance.
