Chapter 932: Feng Yuxiangʼs Alchemy

While Feng Yuxiang went to watch Wang Xiuying concot pills, Yuan tested out the Tier 5 Body Tempering Pill.

”Shit! This is painful!” He exclaimed in a shocked voice after trying to absorb the medicine.

”I didnʼt think the difference between Tier 4 and Tier 5 would be this vast. This pain is comparable to my first experience.”

However, despite the pain, Yuan felt relieved. After all, if the Tier 5 Body Tempering Pills were not strong enough, he would need to use Tier 6 Body Tempering Pills, and who knows how much a single one of those would cost.

An hour later, Wang Xiuying retrieved the Tier 3 Body Tempering Pill that sheʼd just concocted from the cauldron.

”How was that?” She asked.

”I have memorized everything. Thank you. Now I would like to try.” Feng Yuxiang said.

”You want to try? You know… I donʼt want to sound arrogant, but if concocting pills were this easy, everyone would be an Alchemist.”

”Maybe not human cultivators. However, in case you forgot, I am not human. I am a phoenix with fire mastery that most humans cannot even begin to comprehend.”

Feng Yuxiang stood up and asked, ”Can I use your medicines for my pill?”

”Sure… Use as many as you want.” Wang Xiuying nodded.

After gathering enough ingredients to concoct three Tier 3 Body Tempering Pills, Feng Yuxiang returned to the cauldron.

”If I cannot successfully concoct a pill with three attempts, I will admit defeat and learn Alchemy from the beginning.”

Feng Yuxiang proceeded to summon her phoenix fire around the cauldron, and Wang Xiuying stared with wide eyes.

ʼHer control over the flames is immaculate… Sheʼs even better than my Master…ʼ Wang Xiuying was shocked inwardly by Feng Yuxiangʼs performance even though she hadnʼt even begun putting the ingredients inside.

Sometime later, Feng Yuxiang tossed the first ingredient into the cauldron and adjusted the strength of her flames so that it wouldnʼt burn the ingredient.

ʼMy god, she melted the ingredient almost instantly and even destroyed all of the impurities at the same time. I have never seen anything like this before…ʼ Wang Xiuying exclaimed inwardly as she watched Feng Yuxiang toss ingredients into the cauldron every five seconds.

The speed of Feng Yuxiangʼs Alchemy was truly shocking for someone like Wang Xiuying, as it was many times faster than even her Master, who was the best Alchemist in the Spirit Heaven.

Feng Yuxiang melted all of the ingredients needed to concoct the pill within minutes, and after another minute, she finished concocting the Tier 3 Body Tempering Pill.

”Looks pretty good to me. What do you think?” Feng Yuxiang handed the pill to Wang Xiuying after glancing at it.

[Body Tempering Pill] [Tier: 3] [Purity: 99%]

[Effects: Used for body tempering. Toss in water and wait until the pill completely dissolves. Only recommended for Spirit Grandmasters and above.]

[Description: Concocted by Feng Yuxiang]

”Unbelievable… You really concocted a Tier 3 Body Tempering Pill on your first try… And it even has a 99 percent purity! Please tell me you were only joking with me when you said that you had no experience with Alchemy!” Wang Xiuying looked at Feng Yuxiang with teary eyes.

”This is really my first time doing Alchemy.” Feng Yuxiang calmly shrugged.

And to Feng Yuxiangʼs surprise, Wang Xiuying suddenly began crying, ”If Yuan has someone as talented as you by his side, thereʼs no longer any reason for someone like me to exist! All of my efforts would be in vain! And Alchemy is the only thing that I am good with in this world! Why am I so unlucky?! I only wanted to be helpful to him!”

Feng Yuxiang was completely baffled by Wang Xiuyingʼs sudden outburst. She didnʼt think that she would upset Wang Xiuying this much by concocting a single pill.

”Iʼm sorry, but I donʼt really understand…” Feng Yuxiang said a few moments later.

Wang Xiuying wiped her tears and said, ”Yuan is a very talented person, some may even say that heʼs too talented. Heʼs also someone that I idolize very much, so I want to help him in any way that I can. However, since heʼs very talented, there are very few things that I can help him with.”

”The field of medicine is one of these very few things that Yuan has zero experience and interest in, so I came to this place to study Alchemy. I wanted to help Yuan with the pills that Iʼd concocted. However, now that youʼre in the picture, I will no longer need to concoct any pills for him since youʼll definitely do much better than me. Do you understand my frustration now?”

Feng Yuxianbg nodded in a dazed manner.

”Believe it or not, I actually understand your feelings very well. I also want to help him, but besides offering him treasures and some of my knowledge, thereʼs really not much that I can do to assist him, and he will eventually acquire more treasures and knowledge than me.”

”However, he just told me that heʼs reluctant to learn Alchemy since he finds it very boring, and thatʼs when I got the idea of becoming an Alchemist. This way, I will be able to stand by his side and not feel useless even in the future when heʼs standing at the peak of this world.”

”I see… If thatʼs the case, then I donʼt mind giving up on Alchemy. As a nurse, I only want whatʼs best for my patients, and youʼre clearly the best out there— at least way better than me.” Wang Xiuying sighed.

”What? Youʼre going to give up Alchemy because of this? Thatʼs nonsense!” Feng Yuxiang said.

”I mean… I only started Alchemy so that I could help him… Is there a point for me to continue if I cannot help him?”

”Of course! Donʼt you enjoy concocting pills? You even said it yourself that you do! I will take care of the Young Master in your place, so you should start concocting pills for yourself.” Feng Yuxiang said,

And she continued, ”Furthermore, the Young Master will be leaving this world soon. Unless you plan on ascending with him, you wonʼt be able to help him with your Alchemy.”

”What?! Yuan is leaving this world already?! He just got here!” Wang Xiuying exclaimed after learning this information for the first time.
