Ch 24: Pill Refining

After he had sorted his thoughts out. He again opened the book and retrieved the body tempering art, inscense burner and the True Yang secret art from the tomb.

As both the body tempering art and true yang secret art were of no use to him, he only went through them and put them aside. As for the inscense burner, although he used it, it wasn't of much use so he stored it into his inventory.

As he had finished all that. He focused on his next course of action, although he had lived inside the sect for a year, he never saw Su Yan nor Xia Ning Chang.

Now that he had gotten the mystic demon tomb he wanted to try and get closer to them. He remembers that in his previous life he had a huge crush on a few female characters including both Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang. And it is to be noted that this world is an ancient Chinese theme world, so you can have as many wives as you want if you have the Capital for it.

So it is not a surprise that anyone who goes from a modern world to a cultivation world would want to have a harem. 'I won't be able to meet Su Yan for sometime as she is in seclusion or so I heard. As for Xia Ning Chang, she's too shy for me initiate a talk with her out of the blue.'

Just as he was wreaking his brain to come up with something, he suddenly got a brilliant idea. If he used this method even Meng Wu Ya might not hold her back too much. He called out to his system for his status.

As he went through the mission, he was stunned as he saw the 6th mission and even more shocked at seeing the reward because this is the first time the system gave him this type of mission

After looking at the mission for a good minute and remembering every mission he completed before. He came to a conclusion that the system gave him missions according to his desires.

After coming to this conclusion his determination to complete more missions rose and he began his preparations for the plan he had thought of earlier.

----------------------------------------------------

The next day, the disciples of high heaven pavilion were in an uproar. This uproar was caused by yang feng's plan. He had set up a board on his cottage, the board said that yang feng would accept the requests of the disciples and refine them pills according to their requests upto top heaven rank.

Everyone knew that yang feng was an alchemist and the quality of his pill was always above the other alchemist. But no one knew at which rank he was at and he would only refine pills for himself and his brother yang kai. Now that he was refining pills for other, everyone rushed to get the herbs for the pills they wanted to refine.

Yang feng, who was the orchestrater of all this commotion was in his cottage refining a pill for one of the disciples of the sect. This was the plan he had come up with, to use his alchemy skills to attract Xia Ning Chang's and Meng Wu Ya's attention.

With Xia Ning Chang's physique using alchemy as a way to cultivate, Meng Wu Ya will definitely want to who it is that is so proficient in alchemy in this small world and will probably not stop, or he might even persuade, Xia Ning Chang to compare notes on alchemy with him, considering that her rank might not be too high right now.

As yang feng continued to refine pills for the sect, his fame grew with the news of his pill quality being at least 2 times higher than alchemists of the same rank, but what they didn't knew was that the pills he gave out were only at an acceptable quality for him.

As he had the best knowledge of alchemy in this whole reality, he of course had methods that allow him to use the materials to the fullest, coupled with his talent and experience, he was the best alchemist in this small world in terms of pill quality right now.

In every batch he refined, there were not just one pill refined, but they ranged from at least 3-9 pills per furnace and in every furnace there would be at least 1 or 2 pills with pill veins in every cauldron containing 4 pills and 4-5 in every cauldron containing 8-9 pills.

As waited for either Meng Wu Ya's call or Xia Ning Chang's arrival, a week quickly went by for him. In this period of time he had refined more than a 100 batch of pills ranging from high-common to mid-heaven for the sect disciples and elders.

On the eighth day, as he was just about to receive another pill refining request he saw someone that made a small smile breakout on his face, which he quickly hid.

In front of him he saw a girl that looked to be about his own age. The girl had brown colored hair held in a ponytail, her big bronze colored eyes filled with innocence and a bit of eagerness mixed with shyness and hesitation, although her face was hidden behind a veil it couldn't hide her beauty, her figure dispite her age was developed but in a balanced proportion and there was a type of sacred and innocent aura surrounding her as if she was untainted from the filth of the material and spiritual world.

As the figure came closer towards yang feng, he silently admired the visage in front of him without any improper thoughts. He ideally noted that the dress she was wearing was the same one she wore in the manhwa.

When the figure came up close to him, he smelled the scent of a mixture of herbs with a sweet fragrance. When the figure was right in front of him, the figure looked as it wanted to say something but didn't know how to start, so yang feng asked," hello, my name is yang feng, what can I do for you?"

He didn't try to be overly familiar with her as he had just met her. The figure seemed to calm herself and spoke," hello, my name's Xia Ning Chang, the disciple of the sect treasurer Meng Wu Ya. I wanted to ask for a favor from Junior Brother, if possible." Xia Ning Chang started with her sweet voice but at the end her voice decreased a little in volume than her already low and soft voice.

"Oh, a disciple of treasurer Meng, so what's the favor that senior sister wants from me. I will do anything I can to complete your request." Yang feng feigned surprise at first and continued in normal tone.

"I..I want to discuss alchemy with you."
