Chapter 21

~8 min read 1,418 words

The atmosphere on the pill refining field was stagnant.

Heng Xian's mysterious confidence left everyone confused.

And under Heng Xian's burning gaze, Old Mo inexplicably felt a trace of pressure:

"The Pill Refining Alliance can withstand any questioning! I will be absurd today and bet with you, kid!

However, if you lose, one million low-quality spirit crystals are not enough; I want two million low-quality spirit crystals!

If you can't pay, your Heng Family must pay!"

Everyone all around felt their hearts skip a beat.

Two million low-quality spirit crystals in cash, even the City Lord's Mansion would find it difficult to produce in a short time.

You know, all the reserve spirit crystals of the Heng Family some time ago were only 700,000.

Who knew Heng Xian didn't hesitate at all, smiling to reveal eight snow-white teeth: "Not a problem, let's do it!"

Heng Wei below couldn't bear it anymore: "You brat, what are you doing? You don't even have cultivation, how can you make the three of them refine high-grade pills?

Are you using the Heng Family as a bargaining chip? Is this a place for you to be presumptuous?"

Heng Xian looked at him: "Is there any worse situation for the Heng Family? Uncle, what the hell are you babbling about? Or... you go up?"

"I, how can I..." Heng Wei was dumbfounded.

Old Master Heng Xiu beside him seemed to have figured it out: "Let him mess around, it would be even more embarrassing to drive him away. He's right, it can't get any worse, anyway, he and his father have money!"

Heng Wei and a group of Heng Family elders looked at each other and shut up obediently.

Heng Xian cupped his hands to Old Mo: "Three types of pills, please point them out, old gentleman!"

Old Mo pinched his beard: "Then let's have the White Dew Pill, Yuan-Returning Pill, and Gold Crushing Pill!"

"Can do!"

Heng Xian nodded and walked towards the three Heng Family alchemists: "Get up and work!"

The three Heng Family alchemists hurriedly raised their heads, looking terrified: "Young Master Xian, you brag, we can't do it, we really can't!"

"Pfft..."

"Hahaha..."

There was a roar of laughter all around.

Those with low laughter points wiped their tears.

Xue Jiaojiao laughed the loudest: "Look at how heartless you are, what kind of mess can you make!"

The Heng family members sighed one after another, unable to bear to look again.

Heng Xian didn't feel discouraged at all, but lowered his head and said in a voice only the four of them could hear: "You don't need to use your brains, just listen to my command. Whatever I tell you to do, you do it.

This is your only chance. If you succeed, you will be famous throughout the city and wipe away your past shame. If you lose, it can't get any worse, right, old iron?"

The three alchemists looked at him fiercely: "Really?"

Heng Xian said seriously: "Simple as pie!"

"Pie!"

The three alchemists gritted their teeth, gathered their courage, stood up, and walked towards the pill furnace.

"What did he say to those three alchemists? To make the three decadent people jump around?"

This was almost everyone's question.

The next moment, everyone calmed down and looked at the platform; it was about to begin!

I want to see what magic this confident kid has!

At this time, the three Heng Family alchemists sat by the pill furnace, looking at Heng Xian expectantly.

Heng Xian put his hands behind his back and deliberated: "The pill furnace is made of blunt copper, carved with a small Five Elements formation, the furnace wall is two inches and three thick!

The fire used is the Five Elements Earth Core Fire, and the fire port can be divided into small fire, medium fire, large fire, and fierce fire.

Your cultivation is all between the fifth level and ninth level of the Innate Realm.

Am I right?"

The three Heng Family alchemists nodded in surprise: "Young Master Xian is right!"

Below the platform, the Heng family, from the old master down to Heng Ruze and others, were all stunned. This spendthrift actually knows so clearly?

Old Mo and the group looked at each other; looking at it this way, this kid has some skills.

Heng Xian nodded: "We are refining the first White Dew Pill, warm the furnace with medium fire!"

"Yes!" The three alchemists followed suit obediently.

Heng Xian continued: "Prepare the materials for the White Dew Pill: White Heart Grass, True Dew Leaf, Platycodon, Kui Seed, Heavenly Fragrance Water!"

The three alchemists looked full of admiration and prepared the materials obediently.

Heng Xian paced back and forth, waiting for a full ten breaths before saying: "Put in the Platycodon, melt it!"

The three alchemists followed suit.

Heng Xian: "Add True Dew Leaf, melt it!"

"Remove the residue, add one-third of the Heavenly Fragrance Water!"

"Beat the medicinal liquid into the furnace wall pill liquid chamber!"

"Add White Heart Grass and Kui Seed at the same time, melt them!"

"Remove impurities!"

"Add one-third of the Heavenly Fragrance Water!"

"Gather the four medicinal liquids, turn to small fire!"

"Fierce fire, add the last one-third of the Heavenly Fragrance Water!"

"Condense and refine, roast with medium fire!"

"Hum—"

A peculiar medicinal fragrance wafted out from the three pill furnaces at the same time.

Nearly a thousand people from all directions looked on with burning eyes.

"This..." The thin alchemist sniffed his nose and looked at Old Mo, "This medicinal fragrance..."

Old Mo frowned slightly: "It indeed smells like a high-grade White Dew Pill."

The Seventh Princess Jiang Ziyi beside him blinked: "In other words, this guy isn't bragging, he really has skills?"

Old Mo hesitated: "This kid's technique is very strange, different from ours, let's wait until he opens the furnace!"

The medicinal fragrance in the pill furnace became stronger and stronger.

Heng Xian suddenly shouted: "Fierce fire!"

The three Heng Family alchemists immediately followed suit.

Heng Xian waited silently for five seconds: "Open the furnace!"

The three alchemists closed the fire port, jumped up, and slapped the pill furnace fiercely.

"Hum—"

Three white, rolling pills flashed out, with an incomparably rich fragrance.

The three alchemists caught them, eyes wide, panting like cows.

Everyone below the platform stared fixedly at the four alchemists including Old Mo.

Old Mo and the thin alchemist looked at each other, the latter stepped on the platform, took the three pills with a solemn expression, and examined them carefully,

the more he looked, the more shocked he became:

"It, it really is high-grade, it seems even purer than our high-grade ones!"

"Woo..." The three alchemists received affirmation, sat on the ground, and all the grievances from before erupted at once, and they couldn't help but cry out.

"Wow..."

Everyone below the platform stood up.

Heng Xiu, Heng Wei, Heng Yueruo, and all the Heng family members were full of surprise. Heng Xian, this spendthrift, actually... really did it?!

Xie Lingyu opened her mouth; this Heng Xian, it's not the first time he's done this!

The people from the City Lord's Ye Family, Xiao Family, Li Family, and Sun Family camp were hesitant at first, then their expressions became very solemn!

The Xue Jiaojiao family was dumbfounded!

Discussions arose far and near.

Everyone's eyes on Heng Xian changed!

Actually, refining high-grade pills is not scary! It's not like everyone hasn't seen high-grade pills!

But directing three alchemists who were still waste and decadent just before, like a god, to collectively refine high-grade pills!

And didn't waste a single material!

There were no mistakes in the middle!

This operation is too flashy!

It's simply unheard of!

Old Mo ran to the platform himself, checked the three pills personally, and after confirming there were no mistakes, looked at Heng Xian: "How... did you do it?"

Heng Xian pointed at the three wailing alchemists: "Didn't they do it?"

"Uh..." Old Mo was speechless for a moment.

Heng Xian turned his back and looked at the three Heng Family alchemists: "Why are you crying, cry later, continue, refine the Yuan-Returning Pill!"

The three alchemists wiped their tears, looked at him with gratitude and admiration, nodded heavily, and walked towards the pill furnace.

After the three alchemists sat down.

Heng Xian put his hands behind his back: "Warm the furnace with small fire!"

"Check the materials for the Yuan-Returning Pill: Seven Cliff Grass, Six Needle Fragrance, Hemostatic Vine, Bitter Zhi Water!"

"Yes!"
