The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 882: Chapter 877: The Angry Fat Man

In the flying Cloud Pill Workshop, there were already a lot of people bustling around.

The entrance was a crowded place with people coming and going, and it was quite lively even early in the morning.

”Because Grandpa Fuyao is going to give a lecture with the visiting senior, so there’s a huge crowd here early today!”

Shi Xiaoshou looked expectantly and enviously at the inside of the workshop, turned back to Lin Tian, and explained, ”The flying Cloud Pill Workshop is the biggest in flying Cloud Inn; it’s packed every day! But unfortunately, no one has been able to take away that Pill Furnace! It seems it’s destined to wait until I, Shi Xiaoshou, make my move...”

Lin Tian withdrew his gaze, smiled in surprise, and said, ”You want the Pill Furnace inside?”

”Of course! Although my current Pill Furnace is barely usable, if I get a better one, I, Fatty, can definitely refine higher quality elixirs!”

Shi Xiaoshou nodded solemnly, then said with a look of disappointment, ”But with my current skill level, it’s impossible to refine an Advanced Profound Pill. I’ll have to wait for the future!”

”Why wait for the future when you can try now? The Alchemy Method I taught you before could come in handy. Maybe this time, you could refine an Advanced Profound Pill!”

Lin Tian looked at the workshop, encouraging Shi Xiaoshou.

He also wanted to go in and see the quality of that so-called spiritual Pill Furnace.

”Really? Then let’s give it a try! There are still more than two hours before Grandpa Fuyao’s lecture!”

Shi Xiaoshou’s eyes lit up, filled with eagerness to try.

Fatty is quite obsessed with alchemy and very much wants a precious Pill Furnace of his own.

This was an opportunity!

Subsequently, the two squeezed into the shop inside the workshop along with the crowd.

In one corner of the shop, the plump shop owner had already displayed a large jade green Pill Furnace on a table.

At this moment,

A crowd of people were already gathered around the table, and many were eager to participate.

”Everyone, if anyone can refine an Advanced Profound Pill, this advanced Pill Furnace is theirs!”

The plump shop owner, with a big belly, walked around, and his chubby face resembled Maitreya Buddha, always smiling as he looked at the crowd, saying, ”The spiritual medicines for refining the Advanced Profound Pill are all provided by our shop! Of course, if you’re not confident, be careful, as wasting too much spiritual medicine isn’t good! And no matter what quality of elixirs you refine with this Pill Furnace, they have to belong to our shop in the end! But if you can refine an Advanced Profound Pill, congratulations, the Pill Furnace is yours!”

”Boss Guu, is this for real?”

Someone in the audience exclaimed in surprise.

Anyone could tell that the person speaking was a first-timer at flying Cloud Square; otherwise, they wouldn’t be unaware of the Pill Workshop’s tradition of giving away Pill Furnaces.

”Is this fellow Daoist here at flying Cloud Inn for the first time?”

Someone in the crowd spoke up in astonishment, laughingly, ”This is well-known here at flying Cloud Inn, but unfortunately, no one has ever managed to refine an Advanced Profound Pill!”

”Haha... then let me give it a try!”

The person who first spoke was a young man; he stepped forward and, with Boss Guu’s permission, began the alchemy process.

Here, Boss Guu had prepared everything needed for alchemy, using the jade green Pill Furnace.

Unfortunately,

The young man’s alchemy skills were limited, and he couldn’t even complete the solidifying pill process, sheepishly withdrawing his attempt.

The surrounding crowd couldn’t help but let out soft laughter.

However, many knew they had no ability to refine any elixirs and could only watch around the Pill Furnace.

”Let me give it a try, Fatty!”

Shi Xiaoshou rubbed his hands eagerly and looked at Boss Guu with a playful smile, ”Guu Dapang... ah, no, Boss Guu, can I try?”

Privately, many referred to Boss Guu as Guu Dapang, and Shi Xiaoshou was no exception.

”You, Shi Xiaopang, are back again! How many times has this Furnace been touched by you until it’s all shiny and radiant?”

Seeing Shi Xiaoshou appear, even Boss Guu couldn’t help but laugh scoldingly, ”Today you’re not touching the Furnace, but going for alchemy? I know you’ve always coveted my Green Shadow Furnace, but if you’re not confident, don’t try!”

”Hehe, Boss Guu, this time Fatty here is prepared to give it a shot!”

Shi Xiaoshou stared at the Green Shadow Furnace with glowing eyes, then confidently patted his chest, ”If it succeeds this time, wouldn’t you have an extra Advanced Profound Pill, Boss Guu?”

”Shi Fatty doing alchemy? Oh my, you’re joking, right? He’s famous for using weeds in alchemy, and his talent is abysmal; otherwise, Senior Fuyao would have taken him as a disciple long ago!”

”Exactly, if he can refine a Profound Pill, I’ll eat the leftover pill dregs right here!”

”Haha... it’s always been rumored that this Fatty has a loose screw, looks like it’s true! He even thinks he’s Zhou Chencheng, Young Master Zhou! That guy is a genius disciple under Senior Fuyao and can already refine Mid-level Profound Pills!”

”Yeah, you should just go on touching the Furnace and leave it at that!”

”Hahahaha...”

...

In the workshop shop, many seemed quite familiar with Shi Xiaoshou, and hearing his intention to do alchemy, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Upon hearing this.

Shi Xiaoshou’s face turned green and red, filled with defiance.

”Humph, don’t underestimate me, Fatty! I will definitely surpass that Zhou Chencheng in the future!”

Shi Xiaoshou coldly said, glaring at the surrounding crowd.

”Hahahaha...”

As soon as Shi Xiaoshou finished speaking, the shop immediately echoed with a burst of laughter, and many couldn’t help but clutch their stomachs laughing wildly.

Even Boss Guu couldn’t help shaking his head, smiling wryly without words.

Surpass Zhou Chencheng?

What a joke!

Zhou Chencheng was known as an alchemy genius in flying Cloud City!

At the mere age of thirteen, he had been taken in by Fuyao Wanderer as a disciple.

Now.

Only four years had passed.

Zhou Chencheng had already become a Mid-level Profound Pill Master!

And it’s said that Zhou Chencheng’s alchemy skills have recently improved again, just shy of refining an Advanced Profound Pill, which means he’s only a step away from becoming an Advanced Profound Pill Master!

In flying Cloud City, there are plenty of alchemy talents, but no one can compare to Zhou Chencheng.

Even Fuyao Wanderer’s other disciples were surpassed by Zhou Chencheng.

Now, this fat waste from flying Cloud City wants to surpass Zhou Chencheng, what a laughable thing!

”Fatty, do you even know the gap between you and Young Master Zhou? Your body fat alone can’t compare to a single hair of Zhou!”

Someone in the crowd taunted.

”Exactly... even as a shoe bearer for Young Master Zhou, he’d find your hands dirty...”

Someone else chimed in.

Shi Xiaoshou, flushed with anger, roared furiously, ”Who is Zhou Chencheng anyway? I, Fatty, will definitely stomp him down someday, and then we’ll see if you still dare look down on others with those dog eyes!”

”Hehe, you want to stomp down on this Young Master?”

A suddenly cold sneering voice came from the workshop’s entrance, as a young man in luxurious clothing stepped in with several others.

Seeing the young man appear, Shi Xiaoshou’s face immediately froze, revealing a look of fear.

”Young Master Zhou has arrived, let’s see how this Fatty plans to stomp!”

The crowd, upon seeing the young man, couldn’t help but brighten their eyes, revealing expressions ready for drama.
