The crowd outside the house all looked at Wang Ruoxie, who was already in the pill collection stage, with eyes full of shock.
Although they didn’t know exactly what grade Pill Master Wang Ruoxie was, his fluid and artful alchemy technique made each of them feel ashad of their own skills.
Moreover, there was also a hint of gratitude in their gazes toward Wang Ruoxie.
If it weren’t for Wang Ruoxie’s intervention, they might have already perished in the terrifying blast of the exploding furnace.
Ouyang Qian was also utterly stunned by Wang Ruoxie’s alchemy skill.
In her opinion, even her master, Third Grade Alchemist Zuo Honghui, might not compare to Wang Ruoxie in terms of alchemy skill.
Xiao Ningyue was equally stunned, not expecting that not only did Wang Ruoxie truly understand alchemy, but he seed to be extraordinarily skilled at it.
As for Wang Ruoxie’s earlier claim of only knowing a little, it was simply too humble.
If this was just knowing a little, then what did that make the Second Grade Alchemists like Ouyang Qian? Totally ignorant?
She now finally understood why Wang Ruoxie was so confident when he killed Leng Ao in front of everyone before.
With such remarkable alchemy skill, why worry about not having enough contributions to offset the cri of killing Leng Ao?
Soon, Wang Ruoxie handed the successfully refined pill to Ouyang Qian.
"This Gathering Essence Pill has been successfully refined."
Wang Ruoxie smiled at Ouyang Qian and spoke.
Ouyang Qian was still in shock, chanically accepting the pill, and when she looked down at it, her pupils suddenly widened as she exclaid, "A supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill."
Given her alchemy skill, even if she could successfully refine this Third Grade Gathering Essence Pill, it would be at most of ordinary quality.
Not to ntion, due to her previous mistake, it almost led to a furnace explosion.
What she didn’t expect was that this Inner Sect Disciple around her age, with his dreamlike alchemy technique, could turn the tide, not only averting the explosion crisis but also successfully refining the pill.
What astonished her most was that the Gathering Essence Pill he refined after taking over was of supre quality.
To know, even her master only had a ten percent chance of refining a supre-quality Third Grade Pill.
"Who... Who exactly are you?"
Ouyang Qian looked at Wang Ruoxie with a peculiar gaze and asked.
"Just an Inner Sect Disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect."
Wang Ruoxie chuckled and replied.
Hearing Wang Ruoxie’s words, Ouyang Qian was slightly stunned, then her gaze fell on his chest, where she did see the blue small sword symbol of an Inner Sect Disciple.
But how could she believe that a Third Grade Alchemist would be just an Inner Sect Disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect?
Though the Celestial Sword Sect has extrely strict requirents for accepting disciples, it treated special talents like Alchemists, Artifact Masters, and Array Masters with great favor.
Even a First Grade or Second Grade Alchemist, as long as the aptitude wasn’t too poor, could join the Celestial Sword Sect directly. A Second Grade Alchemist could even beco an Inner Sect Disciple directly.
Though she was only a Second Grade Alchemist, due to her high talent in alchemy, she was accepted as a direct disciple by Elder Dan, Third Grade Alchemist Zuo Honghui, of the Pill and Artifact Hall, and was directly promoted to Core Disciple.
If Wang Ruoxie revealed his identity as a Third Grade Alchemist, he might not be able to promote to True Disciple directly, but at least he would be a Core Disciple, and even the position of an Elder in the Pill and Artifact Hall was not impossible.
The crowd outside also had the sa thought. In the East Victory Kingdom, a Third Grade Alchemist was already at the peak, and there hadn’t been an Alchemy Master above Third Grade for hundreds of years.
Thus, being promoted to Third Grade Alchemist would lead to high regard in any power, even at the top of the Ten Great Sects—the Celestial Sword Sect—wouldn’t be an exception.
After all, the number of Third Grade Alchemists was very scarce. In the entire Celestial Sword Sect, there was only Zuo Honghui.
"Qian’er, what’s going on? I heard there was going to be a furnace explosion here?"
At this mont, a figure rushed over, sowhat panicked.
Everyone turned to look and saw a middle-aged man in his forties, with a dignified appearance, wearing an Elder Robe, with a golden small sword embroidered on his chest.
"Greetings to Elder Zuo."
Upon seeing the newcor, everyone bowed slightly, greeting him respectfully.
It was evident that the newcor was Elder Dan of the Pill and Artifact Hall, Third Grade Alchemist Zuo Honghui.
"Master, it’s already resolved."
Ouyang Qian stepped forward, approached Zuo Honghui, and smiled as she spoke.
Hearing that it was resolved, Zuo Honghui sighed with relief and then smiled, "I suppose it ended in failure. I’ve advised you before, even though your alchemy talent is high and even surpasses , your experience in alchemy is still short, especially your technique is not yet skillful enough to reach the ability to refine Third Grade Pills."
"But you shouldn’t be discouraged. With consistent practice and my guidance, within a year, you will certainly be able to successfully refine Third Grade Pills and beco a Third Grade Alchemist."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Qian chuckled, then handed the supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill to Zuo Honghui, "Master, look."
Zuo Honghui looked down, and his eyes twitched instantly, exclaiming, "A supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill."
He quickly reached out, picked up the supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill, sniffed it, and examined it carefully, muttering, "Perfect, simply perfect. I have studied the Alchemy Dao for more than twenty years and have never seen such a perfect pill."
"Qian’er, who refined this pill?"
He looked up and asked Ouyang Qian.
Naturally, he knew that this supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill was not refined by Ouyang Qian.
"Master, while I was refining..."
Ouyang Qian didn’t hesitate and explained everything that had happened to Zuo Honghui.
"Young man, did you really refine this supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill?"
Upon learning that the supre-quality Gathering Essence Pill in his hand was refined by this young man before him, who looked only sixteen or seventeen, Zuo Honghui’s face was full of disbelief.
"Elder Zuo, Ouyang Qian is your disciple. She certainly wouldn’t lie to you. Moreover, when I refined this Gathering Essence Pill, everyone saw it with their own eyes, so how could it be false?"
Wang Ruoxie smiled and said.
Zuo Honghui knew Ouyang Qian wouldn’t lie to him, but it was just too unbelievable.
"Young man, since you’re a Third Grade Alchemist, why would you willingly be an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple?"
Zuo Honghui looked at Wang Ruoxie with doubt in his eyes and asked.
"Elder Zuo, I am indeed an Inner Sect Disciple, but due to a mistake, I was punished to work as a laborer in the Pill and Artifact Hall for three months."
Wang Ruoxie said with a smile.
"Young man, you’re joking, right?"
Hearing Wang Ruoxie’s words, Zuo Honghui was slightly startled and then said.
Ouyang Qian and the others all looked at Wang Ruoxie with strange expressions. They evidently didn’t believe that a noble Third Grade Alchemist would be punished to do labor in the Pill and Artifact Hall.
"Elder Zuo, his na is Wang Ruoxie, and he indeed was punished to be a laborer in the Pill and Artifact Hall for three months."
At this mont, Xiao Ningyue walked up to Wang Ruoxie’s side and spoke to Zuo Honghui.
