Before arriving at the Great Qian Dynasty.
Fu Yuan's sole intention had been to do just enough to get by, hoping only to endure these painful ten years so he could regain his freedom.
But now...
Facing his old friend Nalan Qianqiu and those who were far inferior to him, Yan Mingli and Xue Bufan, had Fu Yuan really beco the worst Alchemist among them?
Of course.
This was only in terms of concocting low-grade dicinal pills; if it was about creating seventh-grade pills, he would naturally be far superior to both Yan Mingli and Xue Bufan.
After all.
Their cultivation levels limited them from concocting such high-grade dicinal pills.
But those who truly understood Alchemy wouldn't take the ability to concoct the highest-grade pills as the only standard; the success rate and the rate of producing top-quality pills for the sa level of pills were the real criteria for asuring an Alchemist's skill.
Take the Shen Yi Elixir, for example.
Even now, as a seven-star Alchemist, Fu Yuan could at most produce twenty elixirs in a single batch, and having half of them be of top-quality was already an exceptional performance.
Yet, even at his best, his success rate and top-quality rate still didn't match those of the four-star Alchemist, Yan Mingli!
Gurgle!
Fu Yuan swallowed hard and stared at Nalan Qianqiu, saying gravely, "Qianqiu, does Xiao ever co to the Treasure Pavilion?"
Nalan Qianqiu was taken aback and shook his head, "Xiao seldom cos here."
A trace of disappointnt appeared on Fu Yuan's face.
Nalan Qianqiu smiled and said, "Fu Yuan, do you want to wait for Xiao to give you guidance?"
"This..."
Fu Yuan's face stiffened, rembering his previous disdain for Xiao Yi. Now he was desperately eager for Xiao Yi's guidance, which made him feel quite embarrassed. He managed a wry smile and said, "Just, just to discuss, I guess!"
"Hahaha!"
Nalan Qianqiu laughed and shook his head, patting his shoulder, "No need to be embarrassed. Xiao is like the starry sky, profound beyond our comprehension as re mortals. We simply cannot fathom how vast the heavens are. Don't you just want to learn Xiao's Alchemy techniques? Let little Yan teach you!"
"Uh... him?"
Fu Yuan was taken aback.
He had assud Nalan Qianqiu would personally give him guidance, not that he would ask Yan Mingli to instruct him?
How could a re four-star Alchemist give pointers to him, a mighty seven-star Alchemist?
Nalan Qianqiu said with a smile, "Just give it a try!"
"This... alright then!"
Fu Yuan nodded and turned to Yan Mingli, "Brother Mingli, I'll be in your care!"
"Master Fu, you're too kind!"
Yan Mingli smiled ticulously, then took out so herbs and began to demonstrate and instruct Fu Yuan. At first, Fu Yuan wore a look of scorn on his face, but as Yan Mingli began Alchemy.
His expression kept changing.
From initial disdain and contempt, he beca serious and solemn.
He watched every move of Yan Mingli's without blinking.
Now frowning, now exclaiming, now bewildered...
"Is it really possible to do it this way?"
"Damn, such a subtle technique, could it really be conceived by a mortal?"
"Terrifying, truly terrifying..."
All of Fu Yuan's pride dissipated.
He looked at Yan Mingli with a face full of shock, and suddenly, with a humming sound, the Pill Furnace abruptly opened. A fragrance of dicine wafted out; it was the Shen Yi Elixir again, and this ti Yan Mingli had indeed outperford himself.
There were twenty-nine elixirs, with twenty-eight of top-quality.
The remaining one was also of high quality.
Yan Mingli smiled and said, "Xiao left in a hurry at that ti, just giving one session of guidance. There are many areas where I still don't asure up, please forgive , Master Fu!"
"..."
Fu Yuan's face was a picture of shock.
To achieve such astonishing results from just one piece of advice?
Just how terrifying was Xiao Yi's mastery in the field of alchemy?
Gulp!
Fu Yuan swallowed hard, his eyes brimming with excitent as he looked at Nalan Qianqiu, "Qianqiu, if Xiao personally does the alchemy, what's the success rate for forming pills? And the rate for producing top-quality ones?"
Nalan Qianqiu was taken aback and said, "The success rate is over thirty percent, all top-quality..."
He didn't finish his sentence.
Fu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If that's the case, I can accept it."
In his opinion, after all, even Nalan Qianqiu could achieve over thirty percent success, all top-quality, and with more practice, Fu Yuan was confident he could catch up to, and even surpass, Xiao Yi.
After all.
He had learned quite a few exquisite techniques and skills from the earlier demonstration by Yan Mingli.
Just as Fu Yuan was feeling self-satisfied.
Nalan Qianqiu coughed lightly, "I haven't finished yet! Such success and top-quality rates were achieved by Xiao while refining fourteen batches of pills at the sa ti. After all, Xiao himself said he wasn't a professional alchemist, and it was rare to see him give his all..."
"..."
Fu Yuan was dumbstruck, the dicine bottle in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter, and he blinked, "What, what the hell? Refining fourteen batches at the sa ti? You're not joking with , right? Refining fourteen batches at the sa ti?"
"We saw it with our own eyes!"
"Fourteen furnaces, each one containing different pills..."
In the alchemy room, Ning Luo and the others also nodded in unison.
Hisss!
Fu Yuan's hand trembled, and he couldn't help but take a sharp breath.
Just the thought of achieving such success and top-quality rates with one batch of pills had already amazed him. And Xiao Yi could control fourteen batches at once?
You should know...
Fu Yuan himself could multitask, but he could at most control three pill furnaces.
And he could not guarantee success and top-quality rates.
Controlling fourteen pill furnaces at once, let alone seeing it, he had never even heard of it!
At this mont.
All the arrogance Fu Yuan had been carrying vanished without a trace, and the image of Xiao Yi surfaced in his mind, murmuring to himself, "There is always soone better, heaven beyond the heavens, the ancients truly did not deceive ."
Seeing Fu Yuan completely convinced, and even showing unconscious admiration and fervor on his face when ntioning Xiao Yi.
Li Jinjun sighed inwardly, "Truly worthy of being Xiao, he didn't even need to make an appearance himself, and he had already completely subdued the proud Seven-Star Alchemist. Who could compare with such ans?"
At this mont.
Xiao Yi, who was actually sitting at Xuanwu Square, had no idea that he had just made Fu Yuan run errands with dicinal materials to Nalan Qianqiu, and it turned into a personal show-off session!
He utterly suppressed this proud Seven-Star Alchemist!
In the alchemy room.

Fu Yuan put aside his arrogance, and his attitude beca much more humble as he looked at Nalan Qianqiu, "Qianqiu, Xiao asked to bring these dicinal materials over, and all these ten storage rings are full of them. By the way, what does Xiao need so many dicinal materials for?"
Ten storage rings fell into Nalan Qianqiu's hands.
Looking at the storage rings in his hand and briefly inspecting them, he saw an accumulation of dicinal materials like a mountain inside.
You should know...
These dicinal materials represented goods worth a hundred billion silver after being discounted by thirty percent from the market price by the Hundred Herbs Chamber of Comrce. At regular prices, it would be equivalent to three to four hundred billion silver to gather this many materials.
Even the storages of the Beitang Family might not have this much!
Nalan Qianqiu's face lit up with extre joy, "Great, with these materials supplied, we can finally launch a full-scale offensive in our price war against Nangong and the Beitang Family!"
