The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Skill-Dispersing Essence Enhancing Pill

Seeing Yang Jian dawdling, the Old Dragon King grew annoyed. ”What’s the matter, Yang the Second? Are you that reluctant to part with your Yang Family’s Secret Techniques?”

”No, no. I’m just worried Cheng Yuan will get lost.”

Cheng Yuan grinned. ”Don’t you worry, Junior Martial Uncle Yang. I have the Dragon Seeking and Qi-Watching Skill, so I definitely won’t get lost. I’ll catch up with you in no time!”

Yang Jian still hesitated. ”This...”

The Old Dragon King snapped, ”Yang the Second, I’ve already taken the most valuable ingredients! You think there’s something even more precious left in the ingredient section?”

The Old Dragon King’s words were a wake-up call. ’That’s right, he’s already taken the most precious ingredients. What do I care about the rest?’

”Brother Huangfu is right. Let’s go.”

Yang Jian gave a wry smile and led the Old Dragon King straight toward the Cultivation Method Area.

The moment the two were gone, Cheng Yuan began his mad shopping spree.

RATTLE! SWISH!

Cheng Yuan flew down the aisles, flinging open the wooden boxes and Jade Boxes on the shelves and sweeping all the ingredients inside into his Jade Pendant Space.

Soon, the Jade Pendant Space was almost completely filled with medicinal ingredients.

At first, the nine little girls were ecstatic.

The Medicinal Power in these ingredients was immense; even the weakest among them were over a hundred years old.

The nine little girls voraciously devoured the ingredients, and their Cultivation soared.

Soon, the nine little girls had eaten their fill. They sat on the ground, patting their round, bulging bellies and giggling foolishly.

Gradually, their giggles died down.

The space was now densely packed with ingredients. There was no room to play, and soon, there wasn’t even anywhere to sit!

The nine little girls couldn’t help but start protesting.

”Brother, stop! Please stop! We don’t have anywhere to sit anymore!”

Only then did Cheng Yuan realize, ’Oh right, there are still nine little girls in the Jade Pendant Space!’

’Oh well,’ he thought. ’I’ve already taken most of the high-grade ingredients from the Yang Family Treasury. For what’s left, I’ll just grab the high-quality stuff and leave the dregs for the Yang Family.’

Cheng Yuan began to stroll slowly, adopting the Eighth Master’s Step. He activated his Double Pupil as he walked, unwilling to let a single treasure slip through his fingers.

Soon, Cheng Yuan reached the very center of the ingredient section.

Here, there were two rows of different-looking shelves.

These two rows of shelves were filled with Jade Bottles, and inside the bottles were all sorts of Elixirs.

They were all Three Patterns Elixirs.

For a Hundred-Year-Old Gate Valve, Three Patterns Elixirs were definitely considered part of their foundational resources.

After all, with Three Patterns Elixirs, they could help their disciples reach the rank of Martial Emperor at the fastest possible speed.

Anyone else would have taken every last one of these Three Patterns Elixirs, but to Cheng Yuan, they were complete garbage.

Just as Cheng Yuan was about to turn and leave, he suddenly had an idea.

In the Celestial Witch Inheritance, the Chapter on alchemy mentioned the Dissolving Pill. When talented disciples wanted to switch their Cultivation Technique, they could use a Dissolving Pill to disperse the power of their old one.

Cheng Yuan had no plans to change his own Cultivation Technique, so he’d never bothered to make one.

’What if I refined and fused a Dissolving Pill with an Essence Enhancing Pill? Then, after a Yang Family disciple took one of these special Essence Enhancing Pills...’

Heh heh...

With a thought, Cheng Yuan summoned his Eagle-shaped Pottery Cauldron, along with several sets of ingredients for refining a Dissolving Pill.

With a FWOOSH, Cheng Yuan skillfully lit a fire beneath it.

CLATTER, CLATTER.

Cheng Yuan tossed the ingredients for the Dissolving Pill into the Eagle-shaped Pottery Cauldron, then dumped all the Elixirs from the shelves into the Alchemy Furnace as well.

Under the intense heat, the Elixirs and ingredients quickly melted into a liquid.

These Three Patterns Essence Enhancement Pills from the Yang Family Treasury had only reached the level of Three Patterns because they had been forcefully compressed into a Refined Pill using brute Martial Dao Cultivation. It was a crude method, at best.

Cheng Yuan extracted a significant amount of impurities from the Elixirs, drastically improving their quality.

Of course, that would only be true if he hadn’t mixed in the Medicinal Power of the Dissolving Pill.

It had to be said, Cheng Yuan was a genius.

He managed to fuse the Medicinal Powers of the two different elixirs and smoothly succeeded in Solidifying the Pill.

An astonishing medicinal fragrance instantly filled the air.

In the distance, the Old Dragon King was carefully selecting a Cultivation Technique in the Cultivation Method Area.

However, to the Old Dragon King’s frustration, the few Thunder Attribute Techniques in the Jinling Yang Family’s collection were all of a rather low grade.

Suddenly, the Old Dragon King’s nose twitched.

’What a wonderful smell!’

’What is that?’

Yang Jian caught the scent as well and subconsciously looked in the direction it was coming from.

Yang Jian froze. A sudden realization dawned, and his expression changed dramatically.

’This is bad!’

’The Elixir Medicine Area!’

’How could I have forgotten about the Elixir Medicine Area?’

’If Cheng Yuan takes all the Elixirs, the foundation of our Jinling Yang Family will be crippled!’

’Damn it!’

Yang Jian paid the Old Dragon King no mind and sprinted toward the Elixir Medicine Area.

Cheng Yuan, who had seen Yang Jian’s movement with his Double Pupil, quickly put away the Eagle-shaped Pottery Cauldron. With nimble hands, he returned the newly refined Elixirs to their Jade Bottles and placed them back on the shelves.

Yang Jian was fast. Just as Cheng Yuan finished setting everything back, he appeared, staring at him with a suspicious look.

Cheng Yuan’s heart skipped a beat. ’If Yang Jian checks the Small Jade Bottles now, he’ll definitely notice the temperature is off.’

’After all, the Elixirs haven’t cooled down yet!’

’I can’t let him inspect the Small Jade Bottles. I have to send him away!’

An idea popped into Cheng Yuan’s head. ”Junior Martial Uncle Yang, you’re just in time! Could you go out and get me a couple of sacks? I want all these Elixirs!”

Yang Jian was so enraged that a wave of fury washed over him, making him completely forget to check the condition of the elixirs. He just glared at Cheng Yuan.

”Go out and get you some sacks? You’ve got some nerve! The Treasury is only open to you once. You take what you can carry! If you can’t carry any more, then get the hell out!”

Cheng Yuan put on a deeply troubled expression. ”Sigh... Fine, forget it. I’ll just take what I can carry!”

With that, Cheng Yuan started furiously stuffing the Small Jade Bottles into his pockets.

Soon, all of Cheng Yuan’s pockets were bulging with Small Jade Bottles.

Yang Jian secretly sighed in relief. ’Thank goodness the clothes Cheng Yuan is wearing don’t have many pockets.’

Just as Yang Jian was breathing a sigh of relief, Cheng Yuan called out, ”Master, you’re just in time! Can you help me carry some more of these Elixirs?”

The Old Dragon King paused. ’Xiaoyuan can already consistently refine Four Patterns Elixirs. Why is he so enthusiastic about these Three Patterns Elixirs?’

’There’s definitely something fishy going on here.’

Filled with suspicion, the Old Dragon King reached out and picked up a Small Jade Bottle.

Hmm?

’The temperature isn’t right!’

’The Small Jade Bottle is a bit warm!’

The Old Dragon King’s pupils contracted slightly.

’It seems Xiaoyuan has tampered with the Elixirs!’

The Old Dragon King gave Cheng Yuan a deep look. He had underestimated how ruthless his disciple could be.

But the Old Dragon King didn’t think Cheng Yuan had done anything wrong. If you weren’t ruthless toward your enemies, you were the one who would end up bleeding and crying.

The Old Dragon King didn’t expose Cheng Yuan. Instead, he copied him and began stuffing his own pockets full of Small Jade Bottles.

The sight made Yang Jian’s heart ache.

Yang Jian was filled with regret. ’Why did I bring the Old Dragon King back here?’

’Now I’ve lost several more bottles of Elixirs for nothing!’

”Xiaoyuan, that’s enough. I saw a few decent Thunder Attribute Techniques back in the Cultivation Method Area. Want me to take you to have a look?”

”Okay, let’s go.”

The two of them turned and left without even asking for Yang Jian’s opinion.

Afraid they would cause more trouble, Yang Jian quickly followed after them.

Cheng Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

’That was close!’

’Master played along perfectly!’

’I almost blew my cover!’
