Strongest Eccentric Consort

Chapter 129: How Is This Possible?

“Don’t be bothered by what they say. Hurry up and condense the pill.” Lou Qianxue urged Ye Zhuixun to continue. She then looked at Master Yan and coldly smiled. “I’m despicable? I have disturbed Yan Gongqing’s state of mind? I caused his tripod to explode? Is this how you distort the facts as a master?”

“You! Wretch, you dare to rebut me?”

“Why not?” Lou Qianxue asked. With the memory of the Alchemy God, a fourth-grade alchemist was not even worth her attention. “From the beginning to the end, I was only teaching Ye Zhuixun. Did I ever say anything bad about Yan Gongqing? Since I did not talk about him or talk to him, how could I disturb his state of mind?”

Lou Qianxue’s beautiful face became frosty as she said, “On the contrary, he called us trash once and alleged that our tripod would explode the next moment. Shouldn’t he be the one who had disturbed our state of mind? It was fortunate that Ye Zhuixun was determined, and did not let those ignorant people affect him. Yan Gongqing tried to gain an advantage only to end up worse off. He was shocked by Ye Zhuixun’s talent, which resulted in him being careless. He was the reason for his failure. What has this got to do with us?”

Lou Qianxue’s words were like needles that pierced Master Yan’s heart. Master Yan became ashamed and furious, but he couldn’t find any fault in those words. His face turned red in fury as he tried to hold it in, but he was close to fainting.

When the scarlet-masked young man saw this, he laughed. His charming eyes sparkled as he said, “This is interesting. She’s an interesting girl.”

The crowd was stunned for a while. When they came back to their senses, they assessed the situation.

Master Yan is the first fourth-grade alchemist in Liuyun Prefecture. He has a high status. Even in the imperial city, he has the authority to speak.

Lou Qianxue, a little girl who’s not even at the ninth level of the Spiritual realm, actually dared to question him? She even said that he was wrong?

The atmosphere in the entire place became stagnant.

At this moment,

“Successful!” A surprised voice said. “The Peiyuan pill’s condensation is successful!!!”

The speaker was Ye Zhuixun.

He agitatedly put out the fire in his hand and grasped a round pill.

Lou Qianxue’s face also softened. She then said, “It’s clear who’s the winner in this competition. Yan Gongqing, shouldn’t you kneel and slap yourself?”

“No, I don’t believe it!” Yan Gongqing’s eyes turned red. His face became distorted as he glared at the pill in Ye Zhuixun’s hand. “I don’t believe that he could refine the Peiyuan pill given that he made a mistake in the purification of the herbs. It’s even harder to believe that he could refine the pill without merging the herbs. I want to test the pill!”

“Right.” Master Yan also stood up. “I’ll personally test the pill!”

The refining method that Lou Qianxue had taught Ye Zhuixun was irrational! It was impossible to successfully refine pills with that method!

Lou Qianxue said, “It’s up to you all to test. However, remember to fulfill your promise after testing. You, being the dignified Young Master Yan, wouldn’t act dishonestly, right?”

Ye Zhuixun sent the pill over to the opposite party.

Master Yan frowned as he received the pill. When he glanced at it, astonishment appeared on his face. “A Peiyuan pill that has 60 percent purity? How is it possible! How is it possible for someone to refine a Peiyuan pill of 60 percent purity on his first try in alchemy?”

“What?”

Master Yan’s words evoked shock inside everyone’s hearts.

A pill that had 50 percent purity was considered a superior pill, and it was extremely tough to achieve a higher purity in refining pills.

“Am I dreaming?”

“How is this possible?”

“Did Master Yan see wrongly?”

The crowd repeatedly gasped.

To their surprise, Lou Qianxue frowned. “It’s a pity! I had thought that it would have at least 80 percent purity!”
