Chapter 92

There's such a method?

The crowd was stunned, their gazes all turning toward Xu Que.

Xu Que also smiled with satisfaction, patted Xiao Yu on the head, and secretly praised her, thinking, this child is truly sensible!

But Xiao Yu's next sentence caused his smile to freeze instantly.

"But that method has already been lost. Many nine-star alchemists have painstakingly researched it and wasted countless medicinal materials, only to end up with nothing," Xiao Yu said, looking bewildered.

Xu Que immediately withdrew his hand from Xiao Yu's head. Hmph, this brat is not sensible at all!

What do you mean it's lost? Big Brother has a system! With the system in hand, the world is mine, you know? Can a mere bit of alchemy really stump me?

Xu Que's tiger-like body shuddered, and he opened his mouth to speak.

But Su Ling'er had clearly anticipated his move, and she glared at him with a warning look.

Xu Que was immediately displeased and said speechlessly, "Can you guys stop being so funny? I really can do it; why won't you let me try first?"

"Because this would endanger the entire tribe. If you can't control the heat and the pill furnace explodes, what will we do then?" Su Xiaoqi said, waving her small fist.

"Bullshit! Every time I make a move, it's a one-hundred-percent success. How could I possibly fail to control the heat?" Xu Que glared.

But these honest words, falling into the ears of the crowd, immediately became bragging!

An elderly alien of the Nascent Soul Stage couldn't listen anymore and frowned, saying, "Little Friend, it's not that I want to discourage you, but even nine-star alchemists wouldn't dare claim a one-hundred-percent success rate. You are just a tiny Golden Core Stage cultivator; where do you get the courage?"

"What's wrong with the Golden Core Stage? Is a Golden Core Stage cultivator not a person? Why don't we spar?" Xu Que said, lifting his iron rod.

That elderly alien had clearly heard of Xu Que's combat power from Su Ling'er. Upon hearing this, he immediately wilted, turned his head away, and pretended he hadn't heard anything.

Su Ling'er frowned deeply and said, "Sun Wukong, do you really want to refine the pills yourself?"

"I really do! And it will absolutely be a success; I never lie to people!" Xu Que nodded.

"Then what if you fail?"

"If I fail, I'll eat shit and kill myself!" Xu Que replied without even thinking, because it was impossible for him to fail.

"……"

The crowd was ashamed; if you fail, you'll eat shit and kill yourself? You're betting really big!

Su Xiaoqi couldn't help but widen her eyes in astonishment, saying, "This dead monkey... could it be that he's looking for a legitimate excuse to eat shit?"

Xiao Yu looked at Xu Que curiously and remained silent the whole time; it seemed she was the only one in the room who felt that this Great Sage Brother would definitely succeed.

Su Ling'er considered it for a long time before finally nodding and saying, "In that case, I will let you try once. Only once."

"Your Majesty, this must not be done!"

"That's right, what if he can't control the heat..."

Several other Nascent Soul Stage aliens were moved and began to dissuade her.

But Su Ling'er waved her hand to interrupt them and looked at Xu Que again, saying, "If you find that the pill furnace is becoming unstable, you must stop immediately when I tell you to, do you understand?"

"No problem! My alchemy is famously stable, and I am also famously cautious. If you don't believe me, go out and ask around; who in the alchemy world doesn't know me!" Xu Que patted his chest and began to brag.

Su Ling'er habitually ignored his words and said calmly, "Then you may begin."

"Wait, if I fail, I'll eat shit and kill myself, but what if I succeed?" Xu Que asked.

The crowd rolled their eyes.

It would be good enough if you didn't blow up the pill furnace; you're still thinking about what if you succeed? Forget about the "what if"; there's no such possibility!

"Dead monkey, if you want to try, do it quickly. Don't talk nonsense. If you can really succeed, you can have whatever you want," Su Xiaoqi said impatiently.

Xu Que was immediately delighted. Whatever I want? Is that for real? He couldn't help but look at Su Ling'er.

Su Ling'er was startled and shook her head, saying, "Hurry up and begin. If you can succeed, I promise you any one condition, as long as it isn't immoral or harmful to my tribespeople."

"Ah! Sister, you can't do that." Su Xiaoqi thought of something and immediately exclaimed, "What if he asks you to offer your body to him?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Even Su Ling'er was taken aback, her cheeks flushing red, and she felt somewhat at a loss.

Xu Que quickly stood up and said righteously, "Don't worry, I am definitely not that kind of person, and I would never ask your sister to offer her body to me."

Are you kidding? How could someone as witty and intelligent as me, Xu Que, make such a stupid condition? My condition would be for both you and your sister to offer your bodies to me!

"Hmph, stop pretending. I know you are exactly that kind of person. But it doesn't matter; you won't succeed anyway!" Su Xiaoqi glared, puffed out her cheeks, and walked out of the alchemy room.

In the eyes of the crowd, it was indeed impossible for Xu Que to succeed. Not to mention whether he knew alchemy or not, Su Ling'er had only agreed to let him try once!

This meant that Xu Que could only take one portion of medicinal materials, without even a chance to warm up. If he almost succeeded, that would still be a failure!

Su Ling'er understood this point very well. She agreed to let Xu Que try just to satisfy his curiosity. Once he failed this time, she would make him cooperate with Xiao Yu's alchemy in peace.

Therefore, Su Ling'er didn't pay much attention to the "any one condition" she had just promised.

Xiao Yu was quite sensible; she took the initiative to hand the portion of medicinal materials in her hand to Xu Que and asked obediently, "Great Sage Brother, does Xiao Yu need to help you control the heat?"

"No need, you just watch from the side. Great Sage Brother will teach you the most authentic alchemy!" Xu Que smiled.

"Okay." Xiao Yu nodded repeatedly, her eyes filled with brilliance.

Thus, under the solemn gaze of the crowd, Xu Que took the medicinal materials and walked to the pill furnace.

He closed his eyes gently and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, his expression became serious and earnest.

Seeing that he was no longer so sloppy, the crowd felt a little more at ease.

The next moment, Xu Que turned his head to look at Xiao Yu: "By the way, Xiao Yu, are these materials for refining Spirit Nourishing Pills or Blood Origin Pills? Show me those two pill formulas."

"……"

In an instant, the whole room fell silent.

Everyone widened their eyes, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.

Big Brother, you... are you sick! You can't even distinguish the materials for Spirit Nourishing Pills and Blood Origin Pills. Uh, no, that's not right; you haven't even refined these two types of pills before, have you? And you still dare to pat your chest and guarantee a one-hundred-percent success?

"This dead monkey is definitely just looking for a way to eat shit," Su Xiaoqi said with absolute certainty.

Even Xiao Yu was a bit dumbfounded, looking at Xu Que in astonishment, "Great Sage Brother, you... have you never refined Spirit Nourishing Pills or Blood Origin Pills before?"

"That's right. I used to refine things like Immortality Pills. This is indeed my first time refining things like Spirit Nourishing Pills. Give me the pill formulas first," Xu Que said shamelessly.

"Oh..." Xiao Yu was so bewildered by his bluffs that she couldn't react, but she didn't think too much about it and took a tattered Pill Classic out of her bosom!

It recorded far more than just two pill formulas; it contained countless pill formulas passed down by the Jade Rabbit Clan!

Xu Que's eyes lit up, and he summoned the system: "System, hurry, copy them all."
