Wang Lingxi Outside the Alchemist Alliance
Ye Nan slipped the purple storage ring onto his finger.
He thought that having a storage ring would make storing things much more convenient from now on.
He was currently an Intermediate Martial Master.
There were naturally pills suited to Intermediate Martial Masters as well.
Since he was already at the Alchemist Alliance, he naturally wouldn't pass up the opportunity.
After activating the Super Alchemy Brain, Ye Nan quickly deduced which pill suited him best at the moment.
The Azure Moon Pill.
It was a low-grade fifth-rank pill.
He then shared his thoughts with Zhang Yueshan.
After hearing him out, Zhang Yueshan gave Ye Nan the ingredients for the Azure Moon Pill without another word.
After obtaining the ingredients, Ye Nan chose not to return to his clan to refine the Azure Moon Pill.
He had already refined the mid-grade fifth-rank Blood Battle Pill at the Alchemist Alliance.
Why would he be afraid of refining an Azure Moon Pill?
Zhang Yueshan and Wang Pei also knew that Ye Nan intended to refine the Azure Moon Pill here.
They tactfully took their leave.
About half an hour passed.
The flames in the cauldron went out, and Ye Nan took the Azure Moon Pill out.
At the same time, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
Naturally, the system's voice announced that he had gained an epiphany about the best refinement method.
The best refinement method was much the same as the one for the Spirit Forging Pill.
Both required the Heavenly Dragon Body Tempering Art.
He thought he would find a quiet place to refine and absorb the Azure Moon Pill after leaving the Alchemist Alliance.
Once he had refined and absorbed it, his combat power would rise another level.
However, it probably wouldn't be enough to let him break through to Senior Martial Master.
With pills, the first one had a powerful effect.
Taking another would have a somewhat weaker effect.
Of course, if it were a higher-rank pill,
Ye Nan's current combat power certainly wouldn't be enough to withstand it.
He then left the high-grade alchemy room.
Outside, he saw Zhang Yueshan and Wang Pei.
Zhang Yueshan and Wang Pei certainly knew that Ye Nan had finished refining the Azure Moon Pill.
"Ye Nan, are you now..."
"Alliance Leader Zhang, I'm leaving. If anything comes up in the future, you can call on me."
"All right!"
A smile appeared on Zhang Yueshan's face when he heard Ye Nan say that.
He knew those words from Ye Nan were enough.
Before long,
Ye Nan arrived outside the Alchemist Alliance.
To his surprise, he saw Wang Lingxi there.
He could still see the soul inside Wang Lingxi.
But as he saw it, this was probably just like the web novels he had read back in Huaxia.
"Ye Nan?"
Wang Lingxi hadn't expected to see Ye Nan here either. A bewildered look appeared on her fair, aloof face.
"Ye Nan, what are you doing here?"
Wang Lingxi looked at Ye Nan in puzzlement. As far as she was concerned, there was no way he could be here.
"Refining pills."
Ye Nan smiled.
He thought that Wang Lingxi wouldn't believe him anyway.
But if Wang Lingxi had come to the Alchemist Alliance to have pills refined as well, he wouldn't mind refining them for her.
Provided he got something worthwhile in return.
After all, judging by the pills he had refined these past few times,
the quality of the low-rank pills he made should be beyond anyone else in Jiangcheng.
"Refining pills?"
Ye Nan's words left Wang Lingxi utterly stunned.
It wasn't just Wang Lingxi. Lu Lenglan, inside her body, was astonished as well.
"Lingxi, could he really know how to refine pills?"
Hearing her teacher say that, Wang Lingxi replied silently in her heart:
"Teacher, even if he can refine pills, what good would it do? What I need is a low-grade fourth-rank pill."
In Wang Lingxi's view, even if Ye Nan really knew how to refine pills, he couldn't possibly make a low-grade fourth-rank pill.
"That's true, but I think you should ask him. He really is far too mysterious."
Lu Lenglan spoke again after pondering for a few seconds.
Wang Lingxi couldn't help being taken aback by her teacher's words.
"Um... Ye Nan, can you refine a low-grade fourth-rank pill?"
"A low-grade fourth-rank pill?"
Ye Nan looked at Wang Lingxi with considerable hesitation after hearing her question.
How could Wang Lingxi ask him something like that? Wasn't it a little unbelievable?
He thought that Wang Lingxi surely wasn't joking with him.
And yet she had asked him that very question.
Did that mean Wang Lingxi somewhat believed he could refine a low-grade fourth-rank pill?
Holy shit, this is too...
For a moment, even Ye Nan didn't quite know how to describe it.
"I can indeed refine a low-grade fourth-rank pill, but what can you offer me in return?"
Since Wang Lingxi had already asked, Ye Nan thought there was no need for him to beat around the bush.
"Huh?"
Wang Lingxi had expected Ye Nan to say he couldn't.
How could she have expected him to say she could?
This was a low-grade fourth-rank pill! Could someone Ye Nan's age really refine one?
She knew that some alchemy geniuses in Dragon Emperor City could.
But could such an alchemy genius really appear in a place like Jiangcheng?
A few seconds later, Wang Lingxi came back to her senses.
"Ye Nan, if you really can refine a low-grade fourth-rank pill, I'll give you five million."
"On the other hand, if you can't, you'll have to compensate me for all my losses. What do you think?"
Wang Lingxi said to Ye Nan.
Listening to her, Ye Nan thought that Wang Lingxi was indeed from a big place; she certainly knew her way around a business deal.
Five million Dragon Coins could indeed accomplish a lot in a place like Jiangcheng.
He didn't have much need for anything else at the moment, and having some money on hand would be quite nice.
"All right. First, gather all the ingredients for the pill you want, then come find me at school."
After saying that to Wang Lingxi, Ye Nan left.
Wang Lingxi watched Ye Nan walk away, at something of a loss for words.
It wasn't just her teacher; even she now thought Ye Nan was mysterious.
Could Ye Nan really be the person she was looking for?
"Lingxi, stop standing there in a daze. Let's go inside and buy the ingredients."
Seeing that Wang Lingxi was still standing there in a daze, Lu Lenglan spoke from within her.
"All right, Teacher."
At Lu Lenglan's words, Wang Lingxi quickly came back to her senses.
Then she walked into the Alchemist Alliance.
Once inside, Wang Lingxi began buying the ingredients for the Wu Qing Pill.
After Ye Nan returned to school, he found a place where no one was around.
He then put the Azure Moon Pill in his mouth and used the Heavenly Dragon Body Tempering Art.
A long time later, he successfully refined and absorbed the Azure Moon Pill.
He checked his current total combat power:
75,000.
Ye Nan was quite satisfied with his current combat power.
At this rate, he would soon break through to Senior Martial Master.
The next day.
Wang Lingxi arrived outside the boys' dormitory building.
The school goddess's arrival left the students astonished. They couldn't understand why she had come to the boys' dormitory.
