Gu Ni was only pleased that Chen Yang had concealed his Alchemist level.
Moreover, the fact that the Teacher was the first to tell him this secret showed that he held an unparalleled position in the Teacher's heart.
"Tsk tsk, I've accidentally latched onto the coattails of a young Grade 4 Alchemist. I, Gu Ni, am probably going to be remembered for generations in the Jia Ma Empire!!!"
Gu Ni happily hummed a little tune as he walked to the storeroom and took all the herbs for the Qi Gathering Powder that Chen Yang needed!
The warehouse manager, who was not an alchemist, naturally did not know that the medicinal materials Master Gu Ni took away were for making Qi Gathering Powder. He simply respectfully prepared the medicinal materials by classifying them!
While Gu Ni was preparing the medicinal herbs, Chen Yang welcomed his third guest of the morning.
"Brother Yang!"
Today, Xiao Yan was still wearing the same black outfit he wore yesterday.
"They're here!"
Chen Yang nodded to Xiao Yan, then waved his hand and placed five bottles of Foundation Building Liquid, one bottle of Body Tempering Pill, and a piece of paper on the table.
"Foundation Building Liquid, 50,000 gold coins per bottle; Body Tempering Pill, 20,000 gold coins per pill!"
"Find a batch of the medicinal herbs on this paper yourself. These herbs are for your father, Xiao Zhan. If you're lucky, your father can become a 9-Star Great Dou Master within two months!"
Chen Yang pointed to the list of pills and medicinal herbs on the table and said.
"Thank you, Brother Yang!"
Xiao Yan didn't say much. He picked up the medicine bottle on the table, opened it, and sniffed it, actually letting Yao Lao distinguish it.
"Wow!"
"This liquid?"
"This liquid..."
The shocked voice of the old man echoed in Xiao Yan's mind.
"What's wrong, Teacher?"
Xiao Yan asked in his mind, puzzled.
I'll tell you when I get back!
"It seems this kid has quite a background!"
The old doctor sighed. He had no sense of smell, but he could roughly analyze the effects of the Foundation Building Liquid by using Xiao Yan's sense of smell.
It seems that what he said to Xiao Yan before was going to backfire!
"This Body Tempering Pill, if taken before practicing combat techniques, will enhance your physique. If you can get beaten up during combat techniques, the effect will be even better!"
"After you finish practicing your combat skills, or after you've been beaten up, add three drops of this Foundation Building Liquid to your bath. With your talent, if all goes well, reaching the 9th Level of Dou Qi in half a year shouldn't be a problem!" Chen Yang said with a smile, pointing to the two kinds of pills.
"Six months?"
"9th Level of Dou Qi?"
Xiao Yan was shocked upon hearing this.
His Teacher had told him that even with his help, it would be difficult for him to reach the 7th Level of Dou Qi in a year. Now, he could reach the 9th Level in just six months.
"Of course, the premise is that there's enough Foundation Building Liquid and Body Tempering Pills!"
"Moreover, if you want to reach the 9th Level of Dou Qi and have a solid foundation within six months, you have to be beaten, and you have to be beaten badly. Are you sure you can withstand it?"
Training the future Flame Emperor would be quite fun. Chen Yang was now eager to find something to keep a record of it, but it seemed there wasn't such a thing on the Dou Qi Continent!
'If all else fails, we can find a top-notch artist to draw a picture of Emperor Yan getting beaten up!'
Chen Yang muttered to himself.
"I'm fine!"
"With the gold coins donated by Nalan Yanran, the pills should be enough to support my cultivation for the next six months!"
"Moreover, once Nalan Yanran's pills and cultivation techniques arrive, my family can also help me afford some!"
Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, his gradually maturing face filled with determination.
Whether you can persevere or not is your problem!
"Let's have a fair trade. I'm only doing this because I see you have talent and want to build a good relationship with you!"
Chen Yang said with a smile.
"Brother Yang, Xiao Yan will never forget your kindness in this lifetime!"
"Xiao Yan understands your kindness!"
"If these pills were put up for auction, they would definitely fetch a much higher price!"
"I…"
Xiao Yan's voice was choked with emotion.
Chen Yang spoke casually, and charged a hefty price for the pills, but as he said before, under the same conditions, why should Xiao Yan have priority?
"Hahaha…"
"Go back and cultivate diligently!"
"Collect those medicinal herbs carefully, and then send them to Mittel!"
Chen Yang waved to Xiao Yan and said with a smile.
"Well then, Xiao Yan will take his leave. Brother Yang, you're busy!"
Xiao Yan bowed to Chen Yang, put the list of pills and medicinal herbs into his pocket, and walked out the door.
He planned to first go to Ya Fei to buy a storage ring, otherwise it wouldn't be very convenient to store these pills!
...
After buying the storage ring, Xiao Yan ran back to the Xiao Family, panting all the way.
"Phew... Teacher!"
"How does the effect of the pills that Brother Yang refined compare to yours?"
Xiao Yan said proudly on his little face.
"Tsk..."
"This Chen Yang kid is a bit strange!"
"This Foundation Building Liquid is quite similar to my Foundation Building Spirit Liquid. Although I can't tell exactly what medicinal herbs were used, its effects are at least ten times stronger than my Foundation Building Spirit Liquid!"
"And this Body Tempering Pill is also exquisite. If you persist in taking it during the Dou Zhe stage, you can even succeed in condensing the Dou Qi vortex in one go without using the Qi Gathering Powder!"
"Moreover, it will greatly benefit your cultivation of combat skills, the strength of your physical body, and the stability of your foundation!"
"Tsk..."
"What were the people who invented these two elixirs thinking? Amazing... truly amazing!"
"I'd love to sit down and have a proper talk with him!"
The old doctor looked on with a sigh.
"Teacher, just tell me, do you admit defeat or not?"
"You used to say that no one was better than you at using foundational pills, but now you've been proven wrong, haven't you?"
"Brother Yang, an eighteen-year-old alchemist, can casually produce something that shocks you to this extent!"
"I don't think you know how to make medicine at all, yet you boast that Gu He is nothing but a fart in your eyes..."
"Tsk tsk!"
Xiao Yan thought the old man was a braggart.
There was nothing he could do; Yao Lao had absorbed his Dou Qi for three years, and Yao Lao wasn't his only lifeline now, so the resentment was still there.
Of course, he was just making a slight mockery of Elder Yao; his future cultivation would mainly depend on Elder Yao.
"Hey!"
"My surname is Yao, so you're saying I can't make medicine?"
"You brat, just you wait. You're going to get a beating after you take this Body Tempering Pill, aren't you?"
"Watch how I beat you up!"
The old doctor decided to settle a personal score, and he did so in a very righteous way.
"Come!"
"I'm not afraid of you, even though I'm your son!"
Xiao Yan snorted coldly, his face full of disdain.
Yao Lao: "There are plenty of people in this Dou Qi Continent who want to be my son. You'll have to wait in line!"
Xiao Yan: "Keep bragging!"
Old Medicine Master: You just wait, I'll prove you wrong sooner or later!
Xiao Yan: "I'm afraid you'll die before that day comes!"
"..."
The master and apprentice bickered incessantly in the room, while Xiao Yong received the pills given to him by Chen Yang.
"Mr. Xiao Yong, please rest assured, another batch of these pills will be sent over in a while!"
"You and Miss Xiao Ling should continue your cultivation. I'll be leaving now!"
After handing the items to Xiao Yong yesterday, the female fighter left immediately.
Xiao Yong stared at the pill in his hand, speechless for a long time…
