Ni Qianjun raised his thick eyebrows, his gaze filled with certainty.
Lady Yao nodded towards Yue Jinghua, "If I'm not mistaken, this must be Miss Yue Jinghua of Lie Family Mansion. I am Lady Yao from the nightclub. Forgive my boldness, but please don't take it amiss, Miss Yue. I have so acquaintance with the Lie Family's head, Second Brother Lie, and I've always heard that Miss Lie Sisi of the Lie Family is a talented Pill Master. But I have never heard that Miss Yue Jinghua could also perform alchemy."
The appearance and speech of Yue Jinghua just now were like adding a dipper of cold water to boiling water, cooling down the entire tent.
And Lady Yao's words were like adding wood to the extinguished firewood, making the water boil again instantly.
"Turns out she's an impostor, what kind of genius Pill Master is that, if you're capable, refine pills in front of us all," the rcenaries shouted.
Lady Yao tily added, "Miss Yue, if you feel offended by my words, we can both try refining a batch of elixir pills right here in front of everyone. I can prepare the materials and the Elixir Furnace for you,"
Ni Qianjun frowned upon hearing this, just about to intervene.
But then he saw Yue Jinghua suddenly smile and say, "What if I refuse?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the rcenaries inside the tent beca even more restless and uneasy.
Everyone cursed, one after another.
"If you don't agree, then just get out,"
"Ni Huoyong Bone Charcoal doesn't need a trash who masquerades as soone else,"
Ni Qianjun stood in front of Yue Jinghua, wanting to protect her.
A hand landed on his shoulder, Yue Jinghua pushed him away and walked up to Lady Yao.
Yue Jinghua still smiling, her eyes shining with slyness, blinked, "No need to be anxious, everyone. I have not yet finished speaking. Lie Sisi's Alchemy Technique is famous among everyone because alchemy is her main field. As for , alchemy is just a hobby of mine, not enough for the big stage, and naturally unknown to the outside world. It's fine to compete with Lady Yao in alchemy, however, Lady Yao has been renowned for a long ti, competing in alchemy skills with a junior like could lead to others mockingly saying you disrespect the elderly."
Ni Qianjun was also taken aback, not her main field? What does she an by this?
Lady Yao was holding the upper hand, but being told off by Yue Jinghua like this reversed the situation, actually leading to the hint of elder superiority. Such a hat of bullying the young, once it cos out, indeed Lady Yao won't be able to raise her head again.
But having managed the nightclub for decades, Lady Yao had a heart with all six senses very keen, and certainly not soone to be trifled with. "Miss Yue, what a tongue you have. They say Lie Sisi is as clever as ice and snow, but today, I'd say Miss Yue has a heart as intricate as the Seven Orifices. Since you said alchemy is not your main field, I shouldn't compel you to compare alchemy with . However, I am interested in learning what is your true main field, if I am also proficient in that skill, perhaps I can also learn from Miss Yue."
With her saying this, all the rcenaries present also voiced their support, praising Lady Yao's magnanimity.
Yue Jinghua furrowed her brows, mixed with a bit of helplessness, "Does Lady truly want to learn from ? This could be difficult."
Lady Yao, confident in her utmost intelligence and being considerably older than Yue Jinghua, had explored all six arts and was not afraid of any challenge Yue Jinghua might present.
"May I ask if Lady Yao knows how to enhance a weapon's attributes," Yue Jinghua countered.
"Weapon?" Lady Yao was taken aback.
"Precisely, enhancing a weapon's attack power and hit rate. I, unworthy as I am, happen to have so research in weapon refinent," this ti, everyone including Ni Qianjun was stunned.
"Gulp," soone swallowed audibly in the silence.
A Pill Master who is also a Weapon Refiner, the vast gap between the two roles was sothing only Yue Jinghua could bridge.
Lady Yao's mouth twitched, but she ultimately did not speak.
On the continent, there are several thods for Dark Practitioners to enhance their combat abilities, one being strengthening oneself by practicing higher-level Dark Techniques.
Another thod is engraving Spiritual Patterns.
Both of the above thods are limited by personal talent and opportunities, and a slight carelessness could lead to death.
Not to ntion, acquiring high-level Dark Techniques or obtaining Spiritual Patterns, all are by luck and not guaranteed, demanding a price beyond what ordinary people can afford.
However, there's another widely recognized thod on the continent to enhance personal combat abilities that does not relate to a Dark Practitioner's talent, and that is weapon enhancent.
By drilling Dark Pill holes into a weapon and embedding the appropriate Dark Pills, and engraving Artifact Patterns, one can enhance the weapon's combat or defense attributes, thus strengthening a Dark Practitioner's combat ability.
For most rcenaries, weapon enhancent is much better than consuming Elixir Pills. It's the most convenient thod of improving combat capabilities, certainly more reliable than the tedious Elixir Pills.
And Yue Jinghua, precisely learned the first Artifact Pattern from the Demon Sword "Lianyun".
Yue Jinghua duly beca the escort alchemist for Reversed Fire rcenary Corps.
This ti, it wasn't just Ni Qianjun's resolute insistence, but the entire Reversed Fire rcenary Corps, aside from Feng Buhui, including all young rcenaries and the old rcenaries led by the barbarians, unanimously agreed on Yue Jinghua staying.
Soone possessing dual identities as a Pill Master and Artifact Pattern Master, and also being a Two-star rcenary.
These three aspects combined, especially the role of Artifact Pattern Master, a rarity even rarer than a phoenix's feathers and a unicorn's horn, instantly made Yue Jinghua an irreplaceable asset within the Reversed Fire rcenary Corps.
