Hong Ling stood aside with great interest at first, arms crossed, and his eyes followed Jiang Donghua's movements.

Fourth-grade Alchemist personally makes elixirs. This kind of scene is rare.

She watched him put each medicinal plant into the medicine cauldron accurately. As the flames roared, the medicinal liquid gradually condensed, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance.

But after watching it for a while, Hong Ling felt a little bored.

Refining alchemy is indeed too boring.

She curled her lips and stretched lazily, her red skirt swaying slightly with her movements, outlining her graceful curves.

"Junior brother, how long will you practice Fire Spirit Pill?"

She yawned, her tone a bit impatient.

Jiang Donghua didn't even raise his head, he picked it up with his fingertips, and the flames suddenly surged, wrapping a red Fire Spirit Grass in it.

"Why are you so anxious? Refining elixir is all about the heat. If it is too fast, the effect of the medicine will be gone."

Hong Ling rolled his eyes, not bothering to look at his focused look anymore, and turned around and walked towards the corner of the secret room.

"Okay, you practice slowly, I will practice for a while first."

She randomly found a seat and sat cross-legged, forming a seal with her hands. Silvery white lightning gradually appeared around her body, and wisps of electricity crackled in the air.

Lightning Attribute Dou Qi, domineering and fierce!

Refining elixirs usually involves almost no movement except for the sound of the medicinal materials. It can also be considered extremely boring, and the day and night pass quietly without realizing it.

Jiang Donghua Slowly pushed open the thick stone door of the secret room, and a hot medicinal fragrance swept out instantly, mixed with a faint smell of sulfur. His face looked slightly tired, but his eyes were shining with excitement that could not be concealed.

Seven Fire Spirit Pill!

If this spreads out, it will be enough to make all the alchemists in Black Corner Region go crazy!

You know, if Fourth-grade Alchemist usually refines Fire Spirit Pill, he is considered a master if he can achieve a 20% elixir-forming rate, but Jiang Donghua can forcibly refine seven pills out of ten medicinal materials!

"It's a pity that I can only give two Bai Xiaofeng."

Jiang Donghua raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and gently touched Storage Ring with his fingertips. Five high-quality Fire Spirit Pill lay quietly inside.

The remaining two pills are defective products that he specially selected. Although the medicine is effective, it has more impurities and may cause some side effects after taking it.

"Anyway, that guy doesn't know how to make alchemy, just fool him."

He stretched, his bones cracked slightly, and then he stepped out of the secret room.

In the hall, Bai Xiaofeng was lying on a soft couch with his upper body naked. Hong Yu and Biyao, half-dressed, were nestling in his arms. The three of them had obviously just experienced an intense training session.

"Ninth Young Master~Why did you stop suddenly?"

Hong Yu cooed, fingertips lightly tracing his chest.

Bai Xiaofeng suddenly sat up and stared in the direction of the secret room.

"The secret room is open!"

He pushed the two women away, grabbed a robe and put it on. There was still a bit of blush on his face, but his eyes had become sharp.

"So fast? It only takes one day and one night!"

According to his estimate, it would take at least three to five days, or even longer, to refine ten furnaces of Fire Spirit Pill.

But Jiang Donghua came out after only one day and one night?

"Did it fail?"

Bai Xiaofeng's face changed slightly, and anger suddenly surged in his heart.

"Damn it, what if I wasted my medicinal materials!"

He was just about to rush out to question, but saw Jiang Donghua slowly walking into the hall, with a calm expression, as if he just went out for a walk.

"Master Jiang, what are you?"

Bai Xiaofeng suppressed his anger and managed a smile.

Jiang Donghua glanced at him, then glanced at the disheveled Hong Yu and Biyao, with an imperceptible hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"Ninth Young Master is really interested."

Bai Xiaofeng laughed dryly, waved his hand to the two women to leave, and then asked impatiently.

"What happened to Master Jiang, Fire Spirit Pill?"

Jiang Donghua did not answer directly, but slowly took out a jade box from Storage Ring and opened it gently.

"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

Two crimson elixirs lay quietly in the jade box, with a faint firelight on the surface and a strong medicinal fragrance. However, if you look carefully, you can find that there are some impurities deposited inside the elixirs.

Bai Xiaofeng's eyes lit up and he was instantly ecstatic!

"Done?! Two pills?!"

He originally thought it would be good to have one, but he didn't expect that Jiang Donghua actually made two!

"Hahaha! Master Jiang is really amazing!"

Bai Xiaofeng held the two Fire Spirit Pill, the smile on his face almost reaching his ears, his eyes fixed on the firelight flowing on the elixir, and his fingers trembled slightly with excitement.

"Two! Actually made two!"

He originally thought it would be good to have one. After all, it is extremely difficult to refine Fire Spirit Pill. The 20% success rate for ordinary Fourth-grade Alchemist is the limit.

But Jiang Donghua not only made it, but also gave him two at once!

"Hahaha! God help me!"

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiang Donghua. He saw that his face was slightly pale, and there was even a trace of sweat on his forehead. It was obvious that he had spent a lot of money.

Bai Xiaofeng felt something in his heart, quickly put away his ecstatic expression, and said pretending to be concerned.

"Master Jiang, thank you for your hard work! Get some rest quickly. I will prepare the best Spirit Tea and elixirs to help you regain your strength!"

Jiang Donghua waved his hand lightly, his expression remained calm, but his tone revealed an unquestionable firmness.

"No need."

He raised his eyes slightly and looked directly at Bai Xiaofeng.

"Ninth Young Master, now that my uncle is feeling hot, hurry up and get some more Fire Spirit Pill medicinal materials."

Bai Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up!

"Master Jiang means you can practice again?!"

Jiang Donghua The corners of his mouth were raised slightly, revealing a hint of pride.

"What? Ninth Young Master can't trust me?"

Bai Xiaofeng How dare you hesitate? He immediately slapped his thigh and almost jumped with excitement!

"Believe it! Of course I believe it!"

He turned his head sharply and shouted urgently at Biyao standing beside him.

"Biyao! Go to the warehouse quickly and get all the medicinal materials for Fire Spirit Pill! Hurry!"

Biyao responded quickly and was about to turn around when Bai Xiaofeng suddenly raised his hand.

"Wait!"

He frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something, and then he grabbed the robe that was scattered aside, draped it around him randomly, and strode outside.

"No, I have to go in person!"

As he walked out quickly, he turned back and shouted at Jiang Donghua.

"Master Jiang! Please wait for me! I'll be right back!"

Jiang Donghua stood with his hands behind his hands and nodded lightly.

"Go ahead, don't waste time."

Bai Xiaofeng heard this and walked faster. He didn't even bother to sort out his messy clothes and hurried out of the hall and went straight to the warehouse.

Bai Xiaofeng looked impatient and slammed the table, causing the tea cups on the table to jingle.

"Nonsense! What else could it be if it wasn't Fire Spirit Pill? I made it myself by watching it!"

He stared and slapped the jade box on the table.

"Hurry up and test! Give me the medicinal materials after the test, I don't have time to waste with you!"

The treasure appraisers looked at each other, and one of the white-haired old men stepped forward cautiously, gently picked up one of the Fire Spirit Pills with his skinny fingers, and brought it up to his eyes for a closer look.

The elixir is red all over, with faint firelight flowing on the surface, and the medicinal fragrance is rich, but if you sense it carefully, you can detect a faint sense of astringency mixed with it.

"It's indeed Fire Spirit Pill! It's just that the quality..."

The old man murmured in a low voice, but his brows furrowed slightly.

"What happened to the quality?!"

Bai Xiaofeng's eyes sharpened, and his tone suddenly became gloomy.

The old man shook his head quickly and said with a smile.

"Ninth Young Master misunderstood. I am just surprised. This Fire Spirit Pill is extremely difficult to refine. It is rare for ordinary Fourth-grade Alchemist to be able to refine one."

"Hmph!"

Bai Xiaofeng sneered and raised his chin proudly.

"That's because you are short-sighted! How can Master Jiang's methods be compared to those of ordinary alchemists?"

The deacon stood aside, with cold sweat on his forehead, but a turmoil in his heart.

Fourth-grade Alchemist can actually make two Fire Spirit Pill in one day and one night?!

This rate of pill formation is simply unheard of!

He secretly glanced at Bai Xiaofeng and thought to himself.

"This Ninth Young Master, I'm afraid I found a treasure."

However, the treasure appraisers exchanged meaningful looks.

One of them coughed slightly and said slowly.

"Ninth Young Master, according to the rules, your two Fire Spirit Pill can indeed offset the previous account, but if you want to get the medicinal materials again."

"What? I'm not qualified to get it now?"

Bai Xiaofeng His eyes turned cold, and his whole body Dou Qi was surging faintly.

The old man waved his hands quickly.

"Don't dare! There are only Fire Spirit Pill medicinal materials in the warehouse, and there aren't many left."

"Stop talking nonsense! Take what you have! Master Jiang is waiting now!"

Bai Xiaofeng interrupted impatiently.

Seeing this, the deacon had no choice but to nod.

"Yes, Ninth Young Master wait a minute, I'll go get ready."

What is the origin of this Jiang Donghua?

If he can really refining Fire Spirit Pill stably, wouldn't Bai Xiaofeng be about to make a comeback?

And just after he left, one of the treasure appraisers lowered his voice and said to his companions.

"These two pills of Fire Spirit Pill contain a lot of impurities. I'm afraid there will be backlash after taking them."

The other person narrowed his eyes and sneered.

"It seems that Master Jiang is not as honest as he appears."

Bai Xiaofeng walked out of the warehouse with a proud smile on his face, as if he had already seen himself ascending to the position of head of the family.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and his steps became a little brisker.

Jiang Donghua, is really his lucky star!

At the same time, inside the treasure appraisal room.

Several old men sat around the table, staring at the two Fire Spirit Pill with different expressions.

"There is indeed something wrong with this elixir."

The white-haired old man said in a deep voice.

"Fire Spirit Pill should be pure and flawless, but these two pills contain a bit of fire energy. If they are taken, they may damage the meridians."

Another old man in gray robe sneered.

"So what? Ninth Young Master said it himself, he made two pills in a day and night, and it is normal for the quality to be lower. Besides, Bai Xiaofeng himself doesn't care, so why should we worry?"

He narrowed his eyes.

Several people were silent for a moment, and finally, the white-haired old man sighed and put the elixir into the jade box.

"That's all, since he doesn't care about it himself, why should we bother him?"

On the other side, Bai Xiaofeng has returned to Jiang Donghua's alchemy room happily.

"Master Jiang! I've brought all the medicinal materials!"

He opened the door with a smile on his face.

"Look, are these enough?"

Jiang Donghua was sitting cross-legged and adjusting his breath. Hearing the words, he slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the medicinal materials, and raised the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.

"Well, it's barely enough."

He said calmly.

Bai Xiaofeng rubbed his hands, his eyes full of expectation.

"So Master Jiang, how many can you make this time?"

Jiang Donghua glanced at him, half smiling.

"Why, Ninth Young Master is not enough?"

"No no no!"

Bai Xiaofeng waved his hand quickly.

"I'm just asking, just asking!"

With Jiang Donghua, his path to the throne is stable!

Inside the mansion of Heavenly Snake City, Bai Clan Third Young Master Bai Wuchen.

"Bang!"

A fine sapphire tea cup was smashed to the ground, and the tea spilled all over the floor.

"Damn! That idiot Ninth Brother actually recruited a Fourth-grade Alchemist?!"

Bai Wuchen's face was gloomy, with jealousy and anger shining in his eyes.

The confidant Bai Li said in a low voice.

"Third Young Master, the news is conclusive, that Jiang Donghua refined two Fire Spirit Pill in one day and night. Ninth Young Master has already taken it to the auction to pay off the debt. Now the whole Heavenly Snake City is spreading rumors that Ninth Young Master has found a treasure this time!"

"Fart! Just for him Bai Xiaofeng? A loser who only knows how to play with women all day long, does he deserve Fourth-grade Alchemist?"

Bai Wuchen was so angry that he laughed instead.

He stood up suddenly and paced back and forth in the hall, clenching his fists.

"No! We must not let him become a big man!"

At the same time, in the courtyard of the Bai Clan Fifth Young Lady Bai Qingshuang.

She was leaning on the soft couch, holding a message jade slip lightly on her fingertips, her red lips slightly hooked, but her eyes were filled with coldness.

"Oh, my ninth brother is quite lucky."

The maid next to her whispered.

"Fifth Young Lady, should we also send someone to contact that Master Jiang?"

Bai Qingshuang chuckled and shook his head.

"It's too late. Now that idiot must treat Jiang Donghua like a treasure. It will be difficult for anyone to meet him."

Her eyes flashed slightly, and then she revealed a meaningful smile.

"But since he values this alchemist so much, let's start somewhere else."

The maid was stunned.

"What does Fifth Young Lady mean?"

But the woman shook her head and did not speak.

At this moment, Bai Xiaofeng has no idea that he has become the target of public criticism.

He crossed his legs and sat in the hall of his mansion, listening to the reactions from the outside world reported by his subordinates with a proud face.

"Hahaha! Third brother and fifth sister are afraid that their intestines will turn green now, right?"

He laughed, his eyes full of joy.

"Let them look down on me before! Now that I have Master Jiang to help me, let's see who dares to look down on me!"

Biyao on the side smiled and flattered.

"Ninth Young Master is so blessed that even Fourth-grade Alchemist is willing to work for you. Isn't the position of city lord within reach in the future?"

Bai Xiaofeng pinched her cheek proudly.

"Well said! When I become the lord of the city, your benefits will be indispensable!"

More than half a month has passed, and Bai Xiaofeng's initial ecstasy has long been replaced by a faint uneasiness.

The speed of refining alchemy is so terrifying!

Two Fire Spirit Pill and Jiang Donghua were refined almost non-stop every day. Every time he came out of the alchemy room, his face was paler than the last time, but his eyes were still as cold as a knife.

Bai Xiaofeng stood outside the alchemy room, rubbing his hands with a flattering smile on his face, but feeling increasingly panicked in his heart.

"Master Jiang, do you think you need to rest for a few days?"

he asked cautiously.

"There are many good places in Heavenly Snake City, why don't I take you to relax?"

Jiang Donghua didn't even raise his eyelids, he just replied coldly.

"No time."

Bai Xiaofeng swallowed his saliva and continued bravely.

"But if you continue like this, your body may not be able to bear it! If you collapse from exhaustion, wouldn't I?"

"What? Ninth Young Master Are you afraid that I won't be able to practice anymore?"

Jiang Donghua finally raised his eyes, his eyes as cold as ice.

"No, no, no! I'm just worried about your health!"

Bai Xiaofeng waved his hands quickly, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Then stop talking nonsense and do you still want me to help you make elixirs?"

Jiang Donghua turned around and walked towards the alchemy room again.

Bai Xiaofeng opened his mouth, but in the end he could only laugh twice.

"Yes, of course!"

But in my heart, I have already begun to regret it.

How is this alchemy refining? It's simply draining your life!

After a few days, Bai Xiaofeng finally couldn't bear it anymore.

When Jiang Donghua once again pushed open the door of the alchemy room, holding two newly refined Fire Spirit Pill in his hand, Bai Xiaofeng's face was even uglier than his.

"Master Jiang, that's enough this time!"

He said almost begging.

"You should take a rest first before you continue like this~"

Jiang Donghua glanced at him lightly.

"Why, Ninth Young Master doesn't want the elixir anymore?"

Bai Xiaofeng gritted his teeth and finally shook his head.

"No more! I really don't want it anymore!"

He was afraid.

He was afraid that Jiang Donghua would really die of exhaustion in his house!

This Master Jiang is simply a lunatic, a pure alchemist Medicine Maniac!

No wonder you can step into the category of Fourth-grade Alchemist at such a young age.

This Jiang Donghua is more crazy about refining medicine than all the young Fourth-grade Alchemist Bai Xiaofeng has ever seen!

Jiang Donghua stared at him for a few seconds and suddenly smiled.

"Okay, since Ninth Young Master has spoken, I will rest for a few days."

Bai Xiaofeng nodded quickly as if he was being pardoned.

"Okay, okay! Just rest and ask for anything you need!"

Jiang Donghua said no more, just turned around and left, with a faint sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Squeeze dry?

Oh, this is just the beginning.

Bai Xiaofeng The recent days can be described as painful and happy at the same time.

Happily, he has more and more Fire Spirit Pill in his hands, and his wealth has skyrocketed!

The painful thing is that he found that he couldn't stop at all!

He needs gold coins to buy medicinal materials, needs medicinal materials to let Jiang Donghua make elixirs, needs elixirs to sell for money, and then buys more medicinal materials.

This is simply a bottomless pit!

But unfortunately, he simply couldn't refuse such a temptation!

Heavenly Snake City auction, the recent Fire Spirit Pill has almost become the most sought-after goods!

"Ninth Young Master, this time Fire Spirit Pill, we are willing to purchase it at a price that is 10% higher than the market price!"

The deacon at the auction was smiling with a greedy light in his eyes.

Bai Xiaofeng crossed his legs and shook the jade box in his hand proudly.

"One percent? Hehe, there are people out there who are offering 20 percent!"

The deacon's expression changed and he said quickly.

"Ninth Young Master, we have been friends for a long time! Like this, 30%! It can't be any higher!"

Bai Xiaofeng sneered and threw the jade box to him.

"Okay, seeing as you are so sincere, let's make the deal!"

The deacon quickly took the elixir as if he had found a treasure.

The news spread quickly. In just a few days, the forces in several nearby big cities heard that a crazy Fourth-grade Alchemist appeared in Heavenly Snake City!

"Two Fire Spirit Pills a day? Even Fifth-grade Alchemist can't achieve this speed, right?"

"I heard that Master Jiang has been recruited by Bai Xiaofeng, and now Heavenly Snake City's elixir market is almost monopolized by him!"

"Damn it! If only I could dig him out!"

Countless forces are jealous, but when they think of the Four-star Dou Zong Bai Wutian behind Heavenly Snake City, they can only suppress their thoughts helplessly.

Who dares to rob people on Dou Zong's territory?

Bai Clan Third Young Master Bai Wuchen has been in a very bad mood recently.

"Damn it! That good-for-nothing Ninth Brother actually turned around thanks to pills?!"

He punched the table hard, his eyes full of jealousy and anger.

A confidant on the side whispered.

"Third Young Master, there are rumors outside that Master Jiang's alchemy speed is comparable to that of Fifth-grade Alchemist. If this continues, Ninth Young Master's power will probably grow stronger!"

Bai Wuchen's face was gloomy.

"No! We must not let him continue to grow!"

Bai Xiaofeng was still immersed in the joy of soaring wealth at this time, unaware that he had become the target of public criticism.

He laughed and hugged the maid beside him, throwing out a green and gold card.

"It's your reward! If you follow me, you will have many benefits in the future!"

The maid took it with a sweet smile, but a strange light flashed in her eyes.
