Chapter 345: 345
Song Yu thought for a moment, then clenched her teeth.
“Fine, but I need the Detoxification pill right now, I still don’t trust you guys,” Song Yu said coldly.
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled lightly and casually tossed two Detoxification pills over to her.
To others, these pills may be considered precious, but to Jiang Xiaobai, they were nothing special. It was the simplest type of medicinal pill and the raw materials weren’t too rare, he had plenty of them.
When Song Yu saw Jiang Xiaobai was daring enough to give her the Detoxification pills, she was also shocked.
“You really gave it to me?”
Song Yu asked incredulously.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded his head: “Of course, when I say I’ll give you something, I will. Now stop the chitchat, let’s get started.”
Right then, Song Yu also stopped hesitating, anyway, the benefits had already been secured, so there was nothing to worry about.
Moreover, they had noticed Jiang Xiaobai’s team hadn’t even reached the Dividing the gods stage. Although there were two Dividing the gods masters at the side, they were not frightened.
Under unexpected circumstances, the Song siblings were confident that they could escape.
At that moment, Song Yu started to make the medicinal pill, and took out a pill furnace and many materials.
With just a glance, Jiang Xiaobai was a little surprised.
Because the materials that Song Yu took out were the actual ingredients for the Detoxification pill, absolutely correct.
Furthermore, Song Yu’s pill-making techniques were quite good, showing that she had a good foundation in alchemy and was probably at the level of a mid-tier alchemist.
Then, Jiang Xiaobai stared intently at Song Yu’s movements, continually analyzing.
In the end, he concluded that this woman indeed had a basic knowledge of alchemy and had even practiced.
This aroused his curiosity, how had Song Yu accomplished this?
They weren’t supposed to have been given systematic alchemy training, were they?
However, he didn’t immediately interrupt her, but watched Song Yu’s alchemy process quietly.
Although she had some alchemist skills and a basic foundation, her refining speed was still slow because she didn’t know how to refine the Detoxification pill.
After the time it takes for one incense stick to burn, as the flame underneath the pill furnace extinguished, a pill appeared in front of Jiang Xiaobai.
“See now, how about that, can we leave?” Song Yu said coldly.
“No.”
Jiang Xiaobai responded, taking up the pill and inspecting it carefully.
With what had transpired earlier and the pill she had just crafted, he understood how Song Yu could make her fake pills seem real.
Although Song Yu didn’t know how to truly refine them, she had her own understanding of alchemy, and merely through those materials, she was able to simulate the general Qi of the medicinal pills, only this was limited to the outer layer of the pill.
Beyond this surface, it was a mess, nothing substantial.
Moreover, such a pill couldn’t possibly have any effect, it would be lucky if it didn’t poison the user.
Regardless, it was clear that Song Yu had significant talent in alchemy. Besides Kong Yuhuai whom he had met before, it was only Song Yu’s talent that had made him so astonished!
“What’s with the face?’ Song Yu saw the somewhat excited expression on Jiang Xiaobai’s face and immediately raised her eyebrows.
“Nothing, I’m just curious, where did you learn your alchemy skills from?”
Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.
Song Yu frowned: “I never formally studied them, just due to our experiences over the years. We needed to scam people, so we needed to be proficient in many things. Using medicinal pills to scam people was the most efficient way.”
“Haven’t you ever thought about using medicinal pills to make money? You could make a lot of money working as an alchemist for some places, right ?”
AnRan asked surprisedly: “The alchemists in our Wu An Line earn quite a bit.”
However, Song Xi just sneered: “Hmph, those with money belong to strong forces. Those who bully others using their power, we would never help them, they’re lucky we don’t kill them.”
“Additionally, alchemy requires a prescription and materials, and it’s not guaranteed that every attempt at refining will succeed. Furthermore, my sister’s alchemy skills were casually learned and wouldn’t meet their requirements.”
“You must know that we are all alone in the world, unlike you guys who can have anything you want whenever you want.”
Saying this Song Xi’s voice somewhat took on a bizarre tone.
Indeed, the children and descendants of major forces received different treatment compared to scattered cultivators, most of who were hand to mouth.
To deny any envy would be a lie, but their hatred ran deep in their bones.
Jiang Xiaobai was aware that some things can’t be changed, so he didn’t insist.
However, from what had just happened, it was pretty clear that Song Yu’s alchemy skills were competent and her talent was exceedingly strong!
Especially when he found out that Song Yu hadn’t received systematic training, he was only more eager to cultivate her!
Even if he’s standing all alone right now, cultivating some companions and garnering help would be quite beneficial.
He had killed people, many people.
He held considerable sympathy for Song Yu, always feeling that such a promising talent, if wasted, would truly be a pity.
With these thoughts, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Song Yu: “How about it? Would you like me to guide you?”
“You?”
Song Yu scoffed: “Someone like you, a playboy, also knows alchemy? Alchemy not only requires talent but also takes a lot of time to…”
Before Song Yu could finish, she suddenly fell silent.
She saw a black flame appear in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand. His left hand tossed all the ingredients for the Detoxification pill into it, and within a few seconds, the flames dissipated, and a round pill appeared in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand.
The Detoxification pill was created just like that!
The Song siblings were stunned.
The Detoxification pill was refined in front of them so quickly?
They must be kidding, right?
When they recovered, Song Yu looked at Jiang Xiaobai incredulously: “You… are you that top alchemist who refined the Detoxification pill?”
“What’s your level, Divine Alchemist?”
Jiang Xiaobai shook his head and chuckled: “What good is knowing the levels? Are alchemists supposed to rely on levels to judge their strengths?”
“If you could refine the Detoxification pill right now, would you be a Divine Alchemist?”
With these words, Song Yu was rendered speechless, her delicate face turned crimson.
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled: “So, am I qualified enough to instruct you?”
Song Yu didn’t utter a word.
But deep down, she didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
She and Song Xi both understood how important an alchemist was. If Song Yu could truly become an alchemist, then they wouldn’t lack cultivation resources in the future.
Moreover, they wouldn’t need to risk their lives scamming people any longer.
But there’s a catch, was there such a thing as a free lunch in the world?
