The Little Princess Yao Yue
"Yes.🎄🐼 ➅9sùx.ČόM 😾🐟"
Qian Ye did not deny it, and opened the lid of the Eight Trigrams Furnace, took out some medicinal herbs for alchemy, and threw them inside.
Hearing his words, she didn't say anything more, nor did she stop him. Instead, she stared at him and then at the alchemy furnace.
After placing the medicinal herbs inside, Qian Ye put the lid on, then released his Dou Qi, and two balls of fire emerged from his hands, which he then placed into the alchemy furnace to refine.
Heavenly Flames!
She could tell at a glance that the Qian Ye was using for alchemy was undoubtedly Heavenly Flames.
He's certainly got some skill; he even absorbed the Heavenly Flames.
Unconsciously, a hint of a smile appeared in her eyes, but she didn't realize she was already smiling.
Perhaps it was because she hadn't laughed in a long time, and didn't know the difference between laughing and not laughing.
Tap, tap, tap~
Suddenly, footsteps sounded outside the door. Qian Ye was focused on refining pills and didn't bother to look even though he knew someone was coming.
However, Yao Ye saw that the person who came was none other than Jia Xingtian, and another girl, who was slender and resembled her in some ways, but was not as tall as Yao Ye.
The girl had very fair skin, a bat-shaped hair ornament, and two sharp fangs, making her look like a vampire, but she wasn't fierce at all; in fact, she was quite cute, with a cute yet fierce look.
And on her feet, she was wearing a pair of shoes with extremely high heels.
The girl looked like a mischievous and unruly person.
"Great-grandfather, little sister, is there something you need?" Yao Ye stepped forward and greeted them.
"Mm." Jia Xingtian nodded, saying nothing more, but his gaze swept towards Qian Ye, his eyes lighting up. "Ye, is Mr. Qian Ye refining pills?"
"Yes," Yao Ye replied, then looked at Qian Ye: "Great-grandfather, he said he's Seventh-Tier Medicine Master and is currently refining a seventh-grade pill, but I don't know if it's true."
"What?! A seventh-grade pill? Is he really Seventh-Tier Apothecary?" Jia Xingtian was shocked and jolted awake, somewhat unable to believe it was true, yet hoping it was.
He couldn't possibly be unaware of how important a Seventh-Tier Apothecary was in the Jia Ma Empire.
Throughout the entire empire, apart from Gu He, who is a sixth-rank pharmacist, there is no one who is above the sixth rank.
In other words, the vast Jia Ma Empire has never produced a single Seventh-Tier Medicine Master.
Besides, Seventh-Tier Medicine Master is not someone that a small country like the Jia Ma Empire can keep.
"Sister, who is he?" Yao Yue was immediately drawn to the strange man refining pills as soon as she entered, and asked her sister.
Yao Ye simply patted the little princess's head. "Yue, his name is Qian Ye, and he is a Seventh-Tier Medicine Master."
"What... Seventh-Tier Medicine Master!" Yao Yue stared in disbelief, her face filled with shock. This was the first time she had ever seen Seventh-Tier Medicine Master up close, and even witnessed them refining pills—seventh-grade pills, no less! As a fellow pharmacist, she was naturally overjoyed, filled with admiration, and utterly filled with awe. 💔🐉 💔🍓
"I think so." She wasn't sure, so she could only give a vague answer.
"Where did he come from?" Yao Yue's curiosity was piqued.
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat!
"I don't know. I only know that he was in the Snake-People Tribe. My sister asked my great-grandfather to invite him here," Yao Ye said without hiding anything.
Snake-People Tribe?
Yao Yue seemed lost in thought. How did he end up in the Snake-People Tribe?
He immediately looked at Qian Ye's lower body and saw no tail, only normal human legs. He patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness there's no tail?"
"What tail?" Yao Ye couldn't help but ask when he saw his little sister talking to herself.
"Oh... it's nothing!" Yao Yue quickly waved her hand, revealing a cute smile.
Actually, she's not young anymore. Now, more than six years later, she's nineteen years old, a slender and beautiful young woman. Although not as alluring or tall as her older sister, she's still 1.7 meters tall, lively and cute, with a youthful charm and a loli-like quality.
Yao Ye shook his head, saying nothing more. The three of them also remained silent, taking their seats as if afraid of disturbing him, and simply watched.
The waiting group showed no impatience whatsoever; instead, their eyes were all fixed on him and the Eight Trigrams Furnace, watching him refine pills with great interest.
The three of them would glance at each other from time to time, all showing expressions of joy.
unconsciously.
Half an hour has passed.
Buzz buzz buzz~
Bang bang bang~
Suddenly, a muffled thud and a cracking sound came from Eight Trigrams Furnace.
Upon hearing the sound, Qian Ye immediately withdrew his hand and also retracted the Heavenly Flames.
Jia Xingtian, Yao Ye, and Yao Yue were all delighted. Although they were not alchemists, they had seen others refine pills before. As long as the furnace didn't explode, the pill was almost complete.
Although they didn't know its grade or purity, it wasn't important to the two of them. What mattered was that it was a seventh-grade pill. As for Yao Yue, she was a pharmacist herself, and had already broken through to the Fourth-Tier Apothecary level. It could be said that her talent was not bad either. At only nineteen years old, she had already reached the Fourth-Tier Apothecary, which was beyond the reach of ordinary pharmacists.
However, on the other hand, once an alchemist reaches the fourth or fifth rank, it becomes extremely difficult to advance their alchemy level further.
First of all, it's not just that the strength of the Dou Qi Master increases, but the alchemist's strength also increases accordingly. The alchemist's level can only increase in tandem if their Spiritual Strength becomes stronger.
Therefore, many alchemists find it difficult to advance beyond the third, fourth, or fifth rank, and those who can reach the sixth rank are extremely rare.
Take Fa Ma for example. He and Jia Xingtian were from the same era, but his talent was average. Although he was already very old, his alchemist rank was still only fifth grade, which was not as good as Gu He, who was a generation younger than him. At least Gu He had broken through to the sixth grade.
They have been stuck at the sixth rank for a long time, with no sign of breaking through.
As for Fa Ma, although he was unwilling, he had almost given up.
At his age, leveling up is simply impossible without a stroke of luck.
On the other hand, his level is Five-Star Dou Huang, and there is no chance of him advancing further, so naturally he doesn't have much of a chance.
Even the seventh-grade pills are divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced.
Although it is a seventh-grade primary pill, its quality is generally poor. It contains many impurities, has an unattractive appearance, and is of varying sizes. As a result, its medicinal effects are naturally very poor.
Although it is still a seventh-grade pill, its quality has improved, and its medicinal effects are naturally higher than those of a low-grade seventh-grade pill.
Finally, there are high-grade seventh-rank pills. On the surface, they are also seventh-rank, but these are the most perfect seventh-rank pills. They are of the highest quality, with the largest size and smoothest surface. Most importantly, they have the most perfect medicinal effects and are the best quality seventh-rank pills.
As soon as the alchemy furnace was opened, one, two, three... ten pills immediately emerged from it and floated above the Eight Trigrams Furnace.
Qian Ye didn't say much and immediately put away the Eight Trigrams Furnace. This thing was no ordinary divine artifact, and if it was left there for too long, the world's gravity wouldn't be able to withstand it and it would be ruined.
Rumble~
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered outside, thunder roared and lightning flashed, and soon it became pitch black outside the windows of the Council Hall.
Inside the hall, Yao Ye and the others were startled by what they saw.
