Alchemists generally cultivate fire-based Star Skill, especially in the Jiang Family, where fire-based Star Skill are considered their ultimate skills.
This also aligns with their path of spiritual practice.
If someone specializes in the Pill Department and is skilled in fire control, they can refine even better pills.
Therefore, Jiang Yuqing also learned a fire-based Star Magic combo.
As luck would have it, one of them was hit by his blast. The other person glared at him fiercely, Jiang Yuqing shuddered, wishing he could take a quick-acting heart medicine right now.
Fortunately, Li Yang acted very quickly; she had already attacked one of them.
The man was on guard and quickly exchanged several blows with Li Yang.
Both are at the Third Grade Realm and possess melee skills; the competition boils down to combat experience and Spirit Points.
If we only consider combat experience, Li Yang is definitely not qualified. Even though she is one of the best students, she is still a novice when facing these people.
Fortunately, she wasn't alone.
With her exceptionally high Spirit Points and Lianxin's precise reminders, she became increasingly adapted to this combat mode, pushing her Burst-Speed Combo to the limit.
He used a whole set of skills in a flash, triggering the Execution again.
The opponent slashed at Li Yang with a desperate blow, Li Yang was unable to dodge in time, sustaining an injury to his arm.
A sharp pain struck, making it difficult for Li Yang to concentrate.
But she had already killed him.
The sole survivor realized something was wrong and tried to escape.
Li Yang quickly gave chase, and Jiang Yuqing also threw a ball of fire to block his path.
The three men who were determined to ambush and kill Jiang Yuqing never expected that they would be killed instead.
The last person tried to send a distress signal, but Li Yang noticed it beforehand.
She channeled her Frenzy to its fullest extent, appearing behind him in the blink of an eye. Shadow Moon pierced his back, but failed to extinguish his signal flare.
Jiang Yuqing's expression changed as she said, "He has about five or six teammates..."
Li Yang knew what was going on as soon as he heard the number.
Shen Binghua was absolutely right.
The other side sent out a ten-man squad.
Moreover, all ten members of this team are at the Third Grade Realm!
This time, the person behind the scenes did not underestimate Li Yang; they truly wanted to eliminate her within the Divine Miracle.
Li Yang used the last of her Power of Starlight to kill the person before her!
The amazing thing is that, even though she hadn't filled all the Star Aperture, she could still sense the outlines of the other Star Aperture.
If her current Star Aperture can be filled, she can break through to the next realm immediately.
Unfortunately, Li Yang's lifespan was not long enough to fill the Star Aperture.
Jiang Yuqing ran over, drenched in sweat, and said to the man on the ground, "He's not dead yet, hurry up and finish him off."
To Jiang Yuqing's surprise, Li Yang actually used a healing skill to extend the life of this dying person by a little.
Jiang Yuqing: "???"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
What is Li Yang up to now?
Why did they extend his life?
Jiang Yuqing was shocked by her again.
He was quite certain that even if Li Yang wasn't Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer, he would still be amazed by her amazing actions from time to time!
This person's talent is truly astonishing!
What a pity, the Shock System is actually on him.
Li Yang said, "Carry him on your back."
Jiang Yuqing: "???"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
Li Yang said, "Hurry up, I'm too big to carry this. If they come soon, we won't be able to escape."
Jiang Yuqing inevitably gained several hundred Shock Points.
He was too lazy to think anymore. He hoisted the still-breathing attacker onto his back and asked, "Which way?"
Li Yang said, "Come with me."
They quickly left the place, with Li Yang following behind, eliminating their traces.
The goal is to ensure that even if someone arrives here, they cannot determine where they went.
Li Yang led Jiang Yuqing towards the inner city, erasing all the marks she had left behind as she ran.
When it got dark, they returned to the Little Ox's shed.
The Little Ox, startled by the commotion, was about to unleash its mature Star Plant to attack...
Li Yang said, "Second Brother, it's me!"
Upon hearing the word "Second Brother," the Little Ox instantly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly came out to greet him.
However, what he saw was a man with effeminate features carrying a dying man on his back.
Li Yang said, "He is my friend."
Without asking any further questions, the Little Ox quickly welcomed them inside.
Jiang Yuqing looked at the Little Ox in front of her, and listened to Li Yang call him "Second Brother," her mind filled with nothing but "???"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +300 points.]
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +300 points.]
I'm speechless; I'm just shocked.
Jiang Yuqing had only just met with Li Yang when he had already made a fortune.
As expected of Li Yang, as expected of the person he has been longing for.
Once inside, Jiang Yuqing, utterly exhausted, threw the person on her back off with a thud.
The Little Ox was startled and said, "Be gentle, he'll die!"
Jiang Yuqing said angrily, "They deserved to die!"
Li Yang said, "Tie him up. I'll question him later."
The Little Ox was stunned. "Isn't he your friend?"
Li Yang: "This isn't it."
Little Ox: "Oh."
The Little Ox didn't dare ask any more questions. It quickly pulled out some tough vines and tied the half-dead attacker up tightly.
Jiang Yuqing immediately recognized the vine's exceptional quality and exclaimed, "This is... a Grade Three Green Oriole Vine!"
Li Yang's understanding of elixirs was far less than Jiang Yuqing's.
As the saying goes, everyone has their own area of expertise.
Although she can refine pills, she is still far inferior to the Heavenly Fortune Bearer of the Pill Department School.
Jiang Yuqing has always been dedicated to alchemy. He not only learned a lot at the Star-Slaying Military Academy, but also accumulated a wealth of knowledge from a young age through exposure to the arts.
This kind of knowledge takes time to accumulate, Li Yang obviously doesn't have that much energy to put into it.
Therefore, Jiang Yuqing could understand the medicinal herbs that Li Yang couldn't at a glance.
Li Yang didn't say anything, but simply had Little Ox tie the vines even tighter.
The man was still unconscious, so Li Yang wasn't in a hurry to interrogate him. She would wait until he woke up before speaking to him.
The Little Ox said timidly, "Big... big..."
Li Yang: "Call him 'brother'."
The Little Ox looked like he was about to cry, "Little brother, all the crops outside are ripe."
Li Yang: "Mm."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
This scene was all too familiar. How many times had he repeatedly told Wei Cang, "Call me Qingqing"?
He was quite certain that Li Yang wasn't deliberately imitating him.
This confirmation shocked him even more.
Truly... an extraordinary talent!
Li Yang didn't rush to say anything more to Jiang Yuqing, but instead took Shadow Moon to the backyard.
Jiang Yuqing followed her in, and the moment the backyard door opened, he gasped.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
He stammered, "What... what is this?!"
The backyard was full of mutated Star Plant. With a quick scan using his Spirit Points, he could tell the cultivation level of these Star Plant; a third of them were at the Third Grade Realm...
This scene could be described as a horror movie.
Even with Li Yang's abilities, he couldn't possibly defeat these Star Plant!
Oh no, oh no.
They're not going to die here, are they?
Jiang Yuqing was still in Shock Points...
But I couldn't feel happy.
Even if Shock Points, you still need to be alive to enjoy it.
Li Yang only replied with two words: "Star Plant."
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
How could he not know that this was Star Plant?
You've uttered a truly useless statement!
The next moment, Jiang Yuqing was even more shocked.
Li Yang strode towards the backyard and swiftly chopped down a Star Plant with his knife.
The skill with which he moved left him speechless.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Immediately afterwards, Li Yang swung his knife again, and another Star Plant crashed to the ground.
Little Ox quickly ran up and deftly began to collect the materials that had fallen to the ground, while Li Yang casually "purified" a huge star seed into white.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
He doesn't understand!
I don't understand it at all!
Is that really Li Yang?
Or did he fall into a trap set by the Astral Realm beings?
Could these two Star Beasts that look like cows be the Divine Miracle Core?
Jiang Yuqing's Shock System also has some advantages, such as his ability to see through other people's identities.
The problem is, all he's receiving right now is his own Shock Points.
Although he has only ever been shocked by Li Yang so far, there are always people more capable than him, and who knows, there might be a second Li Yang!
Jiang Yuqing's face turned deathly pale, and for a moment she wanted to run away.
Li Yang spoke up, "Jiang Yuqing, come help organize the materials. Second Brother isn't an alchemist and can't tell the difference. Teach him."
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
The Little Ox's voice was very soft and childlike, but its tone sounded just like Li Yang's.
Especially since she knew his identity...
The Astral Realm beings wouldn't know he was Jiang Yuqing, much less that he was an alchemist.
So this really is Li Yang.
Jiang Yuqing finally couldn't help but ask, "Are you really Li Yang?"
Li Yang looked at him. "Nonsense, doesn't your Shock System display names?"
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +100 points.]
