Chapter 773: Miyuan Pill

~8 min read 1,408 words

As he added the medicinal ingredients one by one, Chen Yu had not yet begun to light a fire, but he saw the runes on the Green Cauldron slowly light up, and wisps of heat surged out.

Chen Yu gave a soft sound of surprise; could this cauldron light its own fire? He took a deep breath and injected a wisp of Original Power into the Green Cauldron, and at the very moment his Original Power entered the cauldron, the Green Cauldron gave a soft hum, followed by the runes suddenly lighting up.

These runes turned bright red, as if they were being calcined by a raging fire, and gradually, a wisp of yellow flame enveloped the Green Cauldron; it had actually begun to refine the pills on its own.

"Is this Alchemy Fire?" Chen Yu was both surprised and delighted. This cauldron was definitely not an ordinary Dharma Artifact; judging by this situation, it was at least at the level of a Spirit Tool. It was just that he did not yet understand the knack for utilizing it; it seemed he would have to study it carefully in the future.

The Green Cauldron generating its own Alchemy Fire was truly a pleasant surprise. Originally, Chen Yu had decided not to sleep for three days and three nights to refine three batches of Spirit Pills, but with the Alchemy Fire, these three batches of medicine were refined in a single night.

Looking at the Miyuan Pills, which were the size of lotus seeds, yellow throughout, and emitting waves of medicinal fragrance, Chen Yu was very satisfied.

This harvest was not small; thirty Miyuan Pills were very precious, and he had to make good use of them.

"Brother Chen, White-robed Onmyoji Group is establishing a charity foundation today and is calling on all caring people to donate. Do you have time to come over?" Chen Yu had just taken a shower and changed his clothes when Tang Xinyi called.

"I can. Send me the location, and I will head over now," Chen Yu said.

"That's great. I'll send you the address now. See you in a bit, Brother Chen," Tang Xinyi said happily.

At the Chamber of Commerce building, in a massive venue, the White-robed Onmyoji Group's event space had already been set up.

Tang Xinyi was wearing a formal professional outfit today; the white suit outlined the perfect lines of her body, and the buttons of the white shirt under the uniform were pulled tight, giving people a feeling that it was about to burst open.

"Brother Chen, you're here." Seeing Chen Yu, Tang Xinyi happily walked up to greet him.

"What made you think of establishing a foundation?" Chen Yu asked.

"The Tang Clan's capabilities are limited after all. Calling on caring people in society to donate together will reduce our pressure relatively. I had advised my grandfather to do this before, but he never agreed to establish a charity foundation, though he is moved by the idea now," Tang Xinyi said with a smile.

"Where is Tang Xue? Why didn't she come?" Chen Yu asked.

"Since White-robed Onmyoji Group is establishing a foundation, we are also going to build a few orphanages, so she went with my aunt to discuss the land," Tang Xinyi said with a smile.

"Alright, go ahead and get busy. Don't worry about me," Chen Yu smiled and found a random seat to sit down.

"Get up, my cameraman needs to sit in this spot." Just as Chen Yu sat down, a woman wearing a press pass walked over, followed by a cameraman carrying a video camera.

Chen Yu couldn't help but glance at her. This woman was a reporter, and the name on her press pass was: "Zhu Lingxue."

Chen Yu had an impression of this reporter; she was a very famous reporter at Huaxin Media. Because she had exposed the dark secrets of gutter oil and also exposed the axle-breaking scandal of a certain car brand, her popularity was very high, and she even had a show on CCTV about exposing fraud.

Originally, moving aside wouldn't have been a big deal, but her commanding tone was very unpleasant. Chen Yu hesitated for a moment, and the woman furrowed her brows: "I am speaking, did you not hear me? I told you to move away; my cameraman needs to film here."

Chen Yu frowned. This woman was a person who appeared righteous and sharp-tongued on screen, but he hadn't expected her to be such a domineering person in reality.

However, today was the day the White-robed Onmyoji Group foundation was established, and Chen Yu didn't want to lower himself to her level, so he stood up and moved aside.

"Moving so slowly, you're young but act like an old person. Do you have Alzheimer's?" Zhu Lingxue glanced at Chen Yu and muttered.

"I've already moved aside, what else do you want?" Chen Yu frowned: "When you are asking something of others, shouldn't your tone be more polite? As a reporter, you start off using a commanding tone to make others move; do you think you're doing the right thing?"

"What did you say? What tone are you using to speak to me?" Zhu Lingxue turned her head with an arrogant expression: "Do you not know who I am? Apologize to me immediately."

"Does that have anything to do with who you are? I know you are a reporter and I know you are very popular, but that is not a reason for you to be arrogant," Chen Yu said coldly: "You should be thankful that today is a big day for my friend, otherwise, just based on your attitude just now, I would have let you experience a beating from society."

"Point the camera at him, expose him." Zhu Lingxue pointed at Chen Yu: "Record his attitude from just now for me."

Chen Yu couldn't help but get angry. The pen in a reporter's hand is a gun that can kill without leaving a trace.

This woman's public persona was actually quite good, but he hadn't expected her to be someone who distorted the truth.

"Sister Xue, is that necessary?" the cameraman said helplessly: "We are here to report on the Tang Clan today."

"Hmph, the Tang Clan claims to be a charitable enterprise and hires internet trolls every day to build their image. I don't believe there aren't any shady dealings in their charity." Zhu Lingxue remembered the purpose of her visit today, and only then did she reluctantly give up. She glanced at Chen Yu: "I have important business today, so I won't bicker with you."

"Then I really have to thank you," Chen Yu sneered. Based on his intuition, he felt this woman was here to stir up trouble.

Soon, the meeting began. Tang Xinyi walked onto the stage in a white professional suit. She first bowed deeply to everyone: "Thank you to the friends in the industry and the media for your support. I now announce that the foundation under White-robed Onmyoji Group, the Sunshine Foundation, is now officially established."

"For ten years, the Tang Clan has been committed to charity, doing our best to help orphans in need in society. I swear here that the Sunshine Foundation will not forget its Initial Embrace and will help more people..."

Thunderclap applause erupted at the scene. Those who knew the inside story knew that White-robed Onmyoji Group was truly doing charity, and the funds invested over these years had almost dragged the Tang Clan down.

Now that the foundation was established, it was feared that White-robed Onmyoji Group could no longer hold on and needed caring people in society to donate together.

"Miss Tang, I am Zhu Lingxue, a reporter from Huaxin Media. I have a few questions to ask you." Suddenly, an untimely voice rang out.

Everyone turned back to see that Zhu Lingxue had already set up her camera, holding a microphone with a questioning look on her face.

"Isn't that the reporter Zhu Lingxue? Why is she here?"

"Yeah, she is famously tough; why would she be at this occasion?"

"She's not here with good intentions; she's probably here to stir up trouble."

Among the people present, most knew Zhu Lingxue, but the people at the scene were not like the mindless keyboard warriors on the internet; they were clear about how much of the so-called dark secrets Zhu Lingxue exposed were actually dark secrets.
