Compendium of Grade 2 Pill Recipes

"Let's head back."

"Those people ruined any interest we had in shopping."

After speaking, Xiao Yan glanced at Xun'er.

"Xun'er, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Xun'er smiled and said,

"Since Brother Xiao Yan says so, let's all go back together."

"We can come shopping again next time."

Since the two of them said so, Xiao Yang naturally had no objections.

However, neither he nor Xiao Yan noticed the flicker of coldness in Xun'er's eyes when they turned away.

Before long, the three returned to the Xiao Clan and went their separate ways.

Xiao Yang was preparing to refine pills, while Xiao Yan intended to cultivate.

After returning to her room, Xun'er spoke indifferently to the empty chamber.

"Elder Ling."

The next moment, a figure appeared before Xun'er.

"Miss!"

"Deal with those Cloaked Figures who escaped earlier."

Xun'er spoke calmly.

When she mentioned dealing with several people, there was not the slightest ripple in her eyes.

In the entire Xiao Clan—or rather, the entire Northwest Continent—only Xiao Yan and the others could stir even the slightest emotion in her.

Everyone else was nothing more than ants in her eyes.

"Yes!"

The next moment, Ling Ying vanished.

Jia Lie Family.

"Father, hurry and have someone kill that Xiao Yan!"

"That kid beside him actually killed two of my guards!"

"And another one had an arm crippled!"

Galeo was kneeling before an elderly man who resembled him somewhat, crying and wailing miserably.

Jia Lie Bi had long since heard the details of this incident from the guards.

"Useless trash! You went to block them, yet they killed two of your men and crippled another!"

"You were so scared stupid that you could only let others drag you away!"

"How did I end up with a son like you?!"

"If I'd known, I would've splattered you on the wall back then!"

Jia Lie Bi was in the middle of a rage.

He had not expected his son to bring people to block someone, only to have several of them killed in return.

What was more, the other side was completely unscathed.

Galeo was so frightened that he no longer dared to speak.

After a while, Jia Lie Bi continued,

"Speak. What did that person look like?"

"I'll have someone investigate."

"The other party should also be a junior of the Xiao Clan."

Just as Galeo was about to speak, several streaks of flowing light suddenly shot in from outside.

The streaks of flowing light struck Galeo and the guards who had fled back with him earlier with perfect accuracy.

In an instant, several people fell silent forever.

Jia Lie Bi stared at his dead son before him, stunned.

The next moment, immense fury filled his heart.

He had finally fathered a son in his old age.

And now, that child was gone!

Though Galeo was rather useless, he was still his son!

"Who is it?!"

Just as Jia Lie Bi erupted in anger, a cold snort rang out.

"Hmph!"

The next moment, Jia Lie Bi suffered internal injuries and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Pfft!"

That cold snort also extinguished the anger in his heart.

A single snort had injured him. Just how strong was the other party?

"May I ask which great person has arrived?"

"May I ask how the Jia Lie Family has offended you?"

He immediately knelt on the ground and spoke respectfully.

At that moment, he did not even dare raise his head.

He feared that if the other party saw the resentment in his eyes, he might be killed by accident.

Ling Ying said nothing and left directly.

However, Jia Lie Bi did not dare rise.

He remained kneeling until nightfall. Only after probing a few times and seeing that Ling Ying did not appear did he dare stand.

The next day, rumors spread through Wutan City that Galeo had died suddenly and that Jia Lie Bi had smashed up his room in rage that night.

Xiao Yang knew nothing of what happened afterward.

After bidding Xiao Yan and Xun'er farewell, he returned to his Small Courtyard.

By now, no one lived around his Small Courtyard.

Only a few servants stood by at all times.

They had also been ordered not to make noise here.

Furthermore, several guards stood watch not far from Xiao Yang's Small Courtyard.

They had been ordered not to allow anyone else to casually come and disturb Xiao Yang.

Thus, the area around Xiao Yang's Small Courtyard was now extremely quiet.

From then on, he would mostly refine pills in his own Small Courtyard.

"System, claim the rewards!"

After returning to the Small Courtyard, Xiao Yang impatiently muttered in his mind.

The next moment, several more items appeared in his System Space.

At the same time, another plot appeared in his Medicinal Field.

Without the slightest hesitation, he took out the Peiyuan Grass Seeds and planted them in the Medicinal Field.

The most precious seeds he possessed now were the Peiyuan Grass Seeds.

Peiyuan Grass had extremely demanding requirements for its growing environment.

It had to grow in a place rich in energy.

In a place like the Middle Continent, Peiyuan Grass was easy to find.

But in a place as Dou Qi-starved as the Northwest Continent, it could only be found deep within the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

However, it could be planted in the Medicinal Field within the System Space.

After planting the ten seeds, Xiao Yang entered the Medicinal Field and began using the Spirit Plant Method on one of the seeds.

He could enter the space where the Medicinal Field was located.

The surroundings were shrouded in mist.

Whenever he tried to leave the Medicinal Field, he could feel an invisible barrier blocking him.

The other areas of the Medicinal Field contained low-grade medicinal materials such as Bone-regenerating Flowers and Qi Replenishing Grass.

After all, rather than leaving it empty, he might as well plant some medicinal materials.

Before long, Xiao Yang hastened one Peiyuan Grass seed to germination.

He discovered that the Dou Qi within his body could only hasten the Peiyuan Grass by less than three months.

It had to be known that while some of the Dou Qi in his body had been consumed earlier, it was not much.

In other words, even if he went all out to hasten Peiyuan Grass, he could only advance it by a little over three months, at most around four months.

He had just broken through to become a Two-star Dou Practitioner.

Compared to when he was at one star, his Dou Qi had increased considerably.

Now, when hastening Coagulation Flowers, he was confident he could raise their medicinal age by eight or nine months in one go!

Yet Peiyuan Grass could only be hastened by three or four months.

For a single Peiyuan Grass plant to mature completely, it needed at least ten years.

Even with the excellent environment of the Medicinal Field in the System Space, it would still take seven or eight years.

"Ah..."

Xiao Yang sighed. He could only take it slowly.

After leaving the Medicinal Field Space, Xiao Yang took out the Foundation Building Divine Liquid and began recovering his Dou Qi.

Before long, his Dou Qi had fully recovered.

He told the servants outside not to let anyone disturb him.

Then, Xiao Yang prepared to begin refining pills.

He wanted to raise his First-grade Pill Proficiency to Major Accomplishment before refining the Fighter Pill.

It had to be known that the Fighter Pill was extremely difficult to refine. Even a Second-grade Alchemist might not necessarily succeed.

His First-grade Pill Proficiency had already reached Minor Accomplishment, 8/10.

As long as he completed two more tasks, he could reach Perfection.

Without hesitation, he directly created the tasks.

[Task: Refine nine portions of Qi Replenishing Powder. Reward: First-grade Pill Proficiency +1, one Ironwood Root.]

[Task: Refine nine portions of Coagulation Powder. Reward: First-grade Pill Proficiency +1, one Sunpetal Flower.]

[Task: Raise one bottle of pill proficiency to Major Accomplishment. Reward: Alchemy Techniques Proficiency +3, Beginner Alchemy Talent +3, Compendium of Grade 2 Pill Recipes]
