Chapter 135: Failed Little Heizi

Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Failed Little Heizi

In an instant, the White Wolf was upon Little Heizi, who stared as it approached.

He was stunned for a moment!

But!

He didn’t dare hesitate for a second!

The next moment!

He immediately leaped backward!

At the same time, the White Wolf’s claws swiped down, landing right in front of Little Heizi!

THUD!

A heavy thud echoed out!

The ground in front of Little Heizi shattered!

The White Wolf’s claws were like sharp plows, carving deep gouges into the earth!

It was a horrifying sight!

As Little Heizi watched, the desire for conquest in his eyes grew even stronger!

He then charged toward the White Wolf!

The next moment!

He circled around behind the White Wolf!

But the White Wolf spun around!

...and snapped its jaws at Little Heizi!

Those sharp teeth!

They glinted with a cold, menacing light!

Little Heizi retaliated!

Fangs clashed, and in that instant, the White Wolf felt an immense force!

It looked at Little Heizi, its eyes filled with shock!

It was as if to say, ’This guy was so weak before. Why is he so strong now?!’

Little Heizi landed, equally frustrated. ’I’m on a similar level to the White Wolf now,’ he thought.

’But it’s still not enough to conquer it!’

He tried a few more times.

They traded blows, neither gaining a clear advantage.

After a while, Little Heizi realized it was futile for now.

Having achieved nothing, he could only retreat in frustration.

The White Wolf, for its part, watched Little Heizi retreat with arrogant eyes.

It threw its head back and let out a long, triumphant howl.

Hearing the howl from a distance, Little Heizi turned his head back toward the forest. He bared his fangs, his eyes burning with frustration, and then raced back toward the manor!

「Inside the manor.」

Meanwhile, Ye Yunyi decided the time was right.

He had already begun to harvest the Mutant Plants in preparation for Alchemy.

Then.

A whooshing sound came from the distance.

Ye Yunyi glanced into the distance. It was none other than Little Heizi, returning from outside the manor.

"Hm? Where did this little guy run off to?"

As Ye Yunyi muttered to himself, Little Heizi ran over.

As he drew near, Ye Yunyi noticed that the little guy had signs of a fight on him, along with specks of blood!

Nearby, the Crimson Flame Tiger and a few other Exotic Beasts came over, growling lowly.

They sounded righteously indignant on his behalf.

Little Heizi, however, remained silent, just looking up at Ye Yunyi. Ye Yunyi got the message.

He immediately took out a few Divine-level Exotic Beast Upgrade Pills and fed them to the creature.

Then, he went over to the beast feed and got him some more.

"Go on, eat up. Who knows where you ran off to. Got a taste of the real world and came running back to cry about it, huh?"

Looking at Little Heizi’s wounds, Ye Yunyi reflected, ’This little guy has hardly faced any real setbacks, from the time he was a pup until now.’

’He’s never known failure. This is a good thing.’

’He finally failed.’

’But failure is the mother of success, after all.’

Although Ye Yunyi didn’t know what the creature had been up to.

Little Heizi ate three Divine-level Exotic Beast Upgrade Pills, but his strength showed no visible improvement.

Ye Yunyi watched and mused, ’It seems that after a certain Level, the effectiveness of Divine-level Exotic Beast Upgrade Pills diminishes.’

’But his strength should still increase once he absorbs them.’

"All right, you ate so many at once. You need to digest them properly. Just be patient," Ye Yunyi said, patting the creature’s head.

After all, he had other things to do.

Ye Yunyi walked over.

Yu Yan and the other women had already prepared all the Mutant Plants.

Without further delay, Ye Yunyi began.

It was time to refine the ultra-potent medicine!

Ye Yunyi began to place all the ingredients into the Alchemy Cauldron.

Then, he took out the Late-Star Stage Exotic Beast Crystal Core.

Nearby, Gong Xiaohan and Luo Xingyue also saw what was happening.

The corners of their mouths twitched.

’What the—!’

’Is he really just throwing everything in there like that?’

’Is that really going to be okay?’

They had heard rumors about Alchemy before. The failure rate was notoriously high, especially for High-Level medicines.

The failure rate was astronomical.

’And now Ye Yunyi is just dumping everything in all at once. How can that possibly work?’

’This time, he’s probably going to waste that Late-Star Stage Exotic Beast Crystal Core.’

The young women watched, sighing inwardly.

Of course, it wasn’t their place to say anything.

Then, they glanced at the expressions of Yu Yan and the others.

The next moment, they froze!

’What in the world...!’

Yu Yan and the other women were watching with eyes full of anticipation.

This...

’Do they have that much faith in Ye Yunyi?’

And so, they continued to watch.

Ye Yunyi then tossed the Late-Star Stage Exotic Beast Crystal Core from his hand into the cauldron.

Then he closed the lid.

Sensing the state of the Mutant Plants inside, he began to adjust the heat of the fire.

An hour passed, then two...

Gradually, a fragrant aroma began to waft from the cauldron.

Instantly, Gong Xiaohan and the others’ eyes flew wide open. They couldn’t believe what they were smelling!

’Is this...!’

’It’s the scent of a successful concoction!’

’Don’t tell me... it’s actually turning into medicine?!’

The medicinal aroma grew richer and richer!

The fragrance spread far and wide!

「Outside.」

「On the road.」

Many people caught a whiff of the fragrance.

All of them stopped in their tracks!

"Huh? What’s that smell? It’s so fragrant," a Mutant remarked, stopping and looking at the people next to him.

The people beside him had also smelled it and were frowning. The aroma seemed to be more than just a pleasant scent.

One of them gasped softly. "I don’t know... something feels strange. After smelling it, my body feels lighter, somehow."

His words seemed to be a revelation for the others.

"Yes, you’re right! I feel it too! It’s like a rich wave of Energy is pouring into my body. What a magical feeling!"

"This is something good!"

"Should we follow the scent and check it out?"

"Yeah!"

"Let’s go, let’s go!"

The group was in immediate agreement.

They immediately headed off into the distance!

A short while later, they arrived at the edge of Ye Yunyi’s manor.

Not far off, many other Mutants were also arriving one after another. All of them stared at Ye Yunyi’s manor, their eyes filled with shock.

"What’s this! Is Lord Ye up to something?"

"I don’t know, but the scent is strongest here. Lord Ye must be cooking something up in there!"

"And the aroma is getting stronger!"

"Honestly, I’m dying to go in and take a look."

"Are you kidding? Who doesn’t want to go see? I do too, but who dares to go in?!"

A chorus of similar sentiments rose from the crowd of Mutants.

Everyone looked at the manor with longing, cursing the fact they weren’t beautiful women.

All they could do was wait outside!

Just then, not far away, several young figures appeared.

They looked at the manor, the corners of their mouths twitching. The other Mutants might not recognize this fragrance, but they certainly did.

’This is the scent of a successfully refined medicine!’

’A High-Level medicine, at that!’

’To think there’s such a powerful Alchemist in there!’
