Heart of Delicacy (1)
Yan Zifeng frowned. He had stayed in the alchemy room because he was afraid that Gongsun Qing might promise to refine the pill properly, but she would slack off. But after a few days of observation, this stubborn girl really meant what she said. Since she had made up her mind to 'save people', she was really studying the pill recipe seriously. It was a pity that the ancient beast cauldron … didn't seem to be as mysterious as Xiaozhen said!
"It's a good thing that you can't refine it."
Yan Zifeng said insincerely. He suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and comforted her softly, still looking as upright as ever.
"Where did I go wrong?"
Grandma Gongsun was still immersed in her mistake and didn't seem to hear Yan Zifeng's voice. Her eyes were fixed on the ancient beast cauldron.
Yan Zifeng's criticism was right!
The ancient beast cauldron was indeed not as useful as it was in Shaoning Manor. Be it the cries of the Yellow Bird or the roars of the Green Mane Beast, they were all slowed down for some reason. When she was refining the Essence Eroding Pill, she couldn't eliminate the hidden dangers of the pill in advance.
She didn't directly tell Yan Zifeng about her doubts. She frowned and seemed to understand something. Grandma Gongsun's tense expression suddenly relaxed, and the corners of her lips even curled up slightly.
"It seems that there are still a few parts of this pill recipe that I haven't figured out. If I continue refining like this, there won't be any results. It'll just be a waste of precious materials."
Patting off the burnt smell on her sleeves, Grandma Gongsun's tone became light and cheerful.
"I'll go meditate in the side room and think about how to break through."
Grandma Gongsun cupped her hands at the stunned Yan Zifeng and disappeared from the smoke-filled alchemy room.
She was secretly delighted. She knew that it was all Xiaozhen's doing!
On the surface, she had the ancient cauldron to refine pills, but this cauldron was actually connected to Xiaozhen's mind. It had already recognized her as its owner. That clever girl seemed carefree on the surface and didn't keep her mouth shut, but she was actually more sensible than she thought. Although she couldn't warn her under the surveillance of the Black Dragon Master, she must have used her identity as the cauldron master to weaken the power of the beast markings in the ancient beast cauldron. Even if she gave it her all, she wouldn't be able to replicate the glory she showed in Shaoning Manor a few days ago!
This is great!
If it was any other time, Grandma Gongsun would definitely scoff at such underhanded methods, but treacherous methods depended on where they were used.
The Black Dragon Lord would definitely be able to tell that he wasn't going all out.
However, under the situation where she was completely immersed in it, the Essence Eroding Demonic Pill was still unable to be condensed because the threshold was too high, so he couldn't blame her, right?
Granny Gongsun, who was snickering, could not help but look at Zhen Xiaoxiao in a higher light. At the same time, she understood even more clearly that he had gone through the sect's strict rules to send her, who was severely injured and did not have an outstanding cultivation base, directly into the Evanescent Immortal Sect.
Although Little Zhen's cultivation was not strong, he was definitely a rare talent!
Grandma Gongsun did not mention a single word of her conjecture to Yan Zifeng.
However, it wasn't because he didn't trust his character, but because the entire Hundred Fierce Herb Field was under the surveillance of the Black Dragon Venerable at all times. It was better to hide any thoughts of destroying the Magic Elixir refinement as deep as possible!
Looking at Grandma Gongsun's hurriedly disappearing figure, a hint of suspicion appeared on Yan Zifeng's face.
What kind of person was he?
He easily toyed with the Four Sages of Tianliang, and even learned in the Evanescent Immortal Sect for many years, but still did not let anyone see through his disguise. A person like this must be a shrewd person, and he memorized every subtle movement of Grandma Gongsun's expression and carefully analyzed it.
With just one look, Yan Zifeng could tell that there was something fishy about this!
"Morning, my little cuties!
"After running around for a whole day yesterday, I confirmed that I need surgery at the gynecology department in the morning, and completed the pre-surgery checkup. "In the afternoon, I went to the dermatology department, and after many days in the otorhinolaryngology and stomatology departments, they finally confirmed that my swollen face is not the main cause. Those blisters that seem to have been caused by physical therapy are viral shingles, which caused the lymph nodes in front of my ears to swell. Right now, my left eye is so swollen that I can't open it, and I will need fifteen days of infusion treatment. Under such circumstances, surgery cannot be done.
"Now I can focus on treating the shingles.
