"Eh!" Hearing Xiatian's words, Pill Spirit also went up to take a look. At this time, there were only five pills in the furnace. "This time, it's indeed a bit too little."
If it was under normal circumstances, someone would definitely be courting death if they dared to speak to Pill Spirit like this. However, when Xiatian said this, Pill Spirit seemed very embarrassed.
"Senior Sister, have you got the money for the materials back?" Xiatian said helplessly.
"Practicing alchemy is originally a loss. How can it be possible to make money as soon as you start? Wouldn't that mean that every alchemist would become rich?" Pill Spirit said very casually.
Hearing her words, Xiatian felt that it seemed to make sense, but this was different from what Xiatian had imagined. He was very sure that with the materials just now, he would be able to refine at least eighty pills.
However, Pill Spirit only refined five pills, which was why he was so surprised.
"Alright." Xiatian said helplessly.
"If you think you can refine more than me, then you can refine it." Pill Spirit said very unhappily. After all, she was known as the number one alchemist in Tianling Mountain. She had always been the target of flattery.
However, she felt that she had no face in front of Xiatian.
Generally speaking, she didn't care about the opinions of a white-clothed disciple, but she cared a lot about Xiatian's opinions.
"Eh, I don't know how to." Xiatian smiled slightly.
"Humph." Pill Spirit snorted coldly. She knew that Xiatian definitely knew how to refine pills, but Xiatian just didn't admit it, so she had no other way.
However, she was very sure that Xiatian definitely knew how to refine pills.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be so familiar with so many herbs. Moreover, from Xiatian's expression when she was refining pills, it could be seen that Xiatian definitely knew how to refine pills. Maybe Xiatian was even an alchemy master.
Of course, all of this was Pill Spirit's guess.
Now that Xiatian refused to admit it, she had no other way.
"Hey, what's your name?" Pill Spirit Asked.
"Xiatian," said Xiatian.
"Xiatian, how about we discuss something?" Elixir Spirit Asked.
"There's no room for discussion. After today, I don't plan to accept any more missions from you," Xiatian said.
"Why?" Elixir Spirit Asked, puzzled.
"Accepting your mission is life-threatening. You might kill me one day because of your bad temper," Xiatian said seriously.
"Eh, don't worry. I definitely won't kill you, and I won't hurt you either. How about it?" Elixir Spirit Asked.
"Even if you don't kill me, you can just find someone to kill me. I can't do anything about it. You are a red-robed disciple, after all. One word from you is enough to make many people go through water and tread on fire," Xiatian said.
"Then I promise I won't let anyone hurt you, okay? Moreover, if anyone dares to bully you in the future, you can come and find me. I will definitely help you. The Pill Spirit said.
"Okay, it's a promise. Tell me, what do you want to discuss?" Xiatian said.
"When I'm refining pills, just say whatever you have in mind. It's that simple. Then, I will issue C-level missions every day for 400 contribution coins a day." Elixir Spirit directly suggested.
She had already guessed that Xiatian definitely knew how to refine pills, and Xiatian definitely had his own ideas.
If Xiatian's ideas were useful to her, then her alchemy skills might improve.
She didn't lack materials or contribution coins, but she lacked alchemy skills. Although there were many alchemy skills in Tianling Mountain, she had already seen most of these alchemy skills. Then, she combined them with her own alchemy skills to achieve her current achievements.
"I don't know how to refine pills." Xiatian insisted that he didn't know how to refine pills. He was very clear that the tallest tree in the forest would be destroyed by the wind. His cultivation talent was already terrifying. If others knew that he was so good at alchemy, refining, and formations, then there would definitely be people who would secretly make a move on him. They might capture him, or they might directly kill him and steal his treasures.
Therefore, Xiatian definitely wouldn't admit that he knew how to refine pills if he didn't have the ability to protect his identity.
Not even to the Pill Spirit.
"Uh, I know you don't know how to refine pills. I just want you to say whatever ideas you have. Maybe your ideas will be useful to me." The Pill Spirit finally understood that Xiatian didn't want to admit that he was an alchemist.
She could understand this point. After all, there were all kinds of people in this world.
Therefore, she simply didn't point it out and pretended that she didn't know.
"Okay." Xiatian nodded.
"Okay. In the future, you will still be my assistant. Just go to the mission office every day to accept missions."
"Okay, then it's settled. It's about time for today, so I have to leave Astral-4." Xiatian handed his mission token to the Pill Spirit, who directly transferred her spiritual energy into it.
The mission token showed that the mission had been completed.
White-robed disciples could only stay in Astral-4 for a maximum of five hours. Otherwise, they would be executed. This was the rule. Xiatian had already stayed here for four hours, so it was time for him to leave.
"Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow." The Pill Spirit nodded.
The Pill Spirit was actually looking forward to seeing Xiatian the next day. Of course, she wasn't looking forward to seeing Xiatian, but to seeing what surprises Xiatian would bring her tomorrow.
After Xiatian left Astral-4, he returned to the mission office.
When he returned, the faces of the people waiting to accept missions turned green.
"You completed it again?" Asked the person at the mission office.
"Yeah." Xiatian nodded.
"Good job." While the person at the mission office was praising him, Lu Yin turned to the people around him and said, "Stop crowding around and disperse. Tomorrow's mission will go to group one hundred."
Xiatian handed over the mission token.
When they saw Xia Chen handing over the mission token, the people at the scene all shook their heads. They knew that they had been waiting in line for nothing for the entire day.
"Brat, you do have some skills. Here, 400 Contribution Coins. Take it." The person at the mission office handed the coins to Xiatian. After receiving the coins, Xiatian headed back to his residence.
He didn't go to the trading market today as he planned to save up some contribution coins. He also planned to stabilize his cultivation when he returned. After all, he had just broken through to the second stage of the One Cauldron, so his realm wasn't very stable yet.
Group one hundred was very quiet today because they had all gone out to complete missions. Xiatian returned to his little cave and began to cultivate.
When night fell, he opened his eyes.
"It's here again." Xiatian's lips curled up slightly. It was the ugly slave again. He wanted to see what she had brought him today. The ugly slave had brought him things every day, and at the same time, she would take the opportunity to poison him.
