"What's the hurry? Who knows the result until the very last moment?"
Lin Tian glanced indifferently at Old Mi as he spoke unhurriedly.
"It's already come to this point, yet you're still so stubborn."
Old Mi sneered, "Fine then, since you insist on seeing the result, I won't mind waiting a few more minutes. Today, I'll make you accept your defeat!"
With that, Old Mi began to wait in silence.
Although it wasn't difficult to form a pill, it was a long and patient process.
At this time, the alchemist had to stabilize the flame and slowly refine the liquid into a pill.
If it was a novice alchemist, they could be too hasty and make unnecessary mistakes.
Although Yue Qingying wasn't an experienced alchemist, she wasn't a novice either. Old Mi had seen her refine pills before, so he was very confident in her ability. He didn't think Yue Qingying would make a mistake in such a simple step.
The medicinal liquid in the cauldron gradually took shape, turning into two icy blue pills, which were being roasted in a strand of raging fire.
The fragrance of the pill gradually wafted out from the furnace, making people feel relaxed and happy.
"Lin Tian, didn't you say that this cauldron of pills will fail 100%?"
When Mo Yu saw this, he looked at Lin Tian and said with a cold smile, "What else do you have to say now?"
"I have nothing to say. Before a pill is successfully refined, it can only be considered a half-finished product."
Lin Tian's expression was calm and indifferent. He was certain this furnace was going to be destroyed.
Seeing this, Bai Chang Feng sighed again.
In his eyes, Lin Tian was simply pestering endlessly.
Bai Chang Feng's impression of Lin Tian once again dropped a lot. From wanting to make friends with him at the beginning, to now, there was only disgust in his heart.
He felt that he was wrong from the start. His first impression of Lin Tian was that of a young genius.
In reality, this young man wasn't the kind of genius he imagined. Instead, he was an arrogant and domineering silkpants who liked to talk big.
That Demon Emperor level feather was probably stolen from home.
Thinking up to here, Bai Chang Feng couldn't help but feel a little remorseful. How could I be so blind to have brought such a person here?
If he incurred the displeasure of Yue Qingying, he was afraid that his position as the chief array master would come to an end.
"Lin Tian, even I can see this pill. It's impossible for it to fail. Don't be stubborn anymore. Apologize to the young miss."
Bai Chang Feng slowly says, his tone a little cold and indifferent. Now that he's directly calling out the man's name, there's no longer any sense of intimacy like before.
Lin Tian smiled and repeated his old words, "There's no rush."
"You won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"
Old Mi snorted coldly.
Yue Qingying glanced at Lin Tian with some doubt in her beautiful eyes.
Right now, even a fool would be able to tell that she had already finished concocting this batch of pills and was just about to leave the furnace. She didn't know what he was persisting for.
With the passage of time, there was only one round pill left in the furnace. Spinning in the fire, the color was very good and the fragrance was very pleasant.
Seeing this, Yue Qingying's last trace of worry due to Lin Tian's words completely disappeared. Instead, a faint smile appeared on her face.
This smile was like a blooming snow lotus, indescribably beautiful.
Mo Yu was like a love-struck fool as he stared blankly at Yue Qingying. Looking at the smile on her face, he felt that even if he died for her, it would be worth it.
Towards this kind of loser who's never seen a woman before, Lin Tian cast a disdainful look at him. Then, looking at the smile on Yue Qingying's face, he also smiled brightly and began to count in his heart.
"Ten …"
"Nine …"
"Eight …"
… …
Just as Yue Qingying was about to open the furnace and complete the last step of extracting the pill, she happened to notice Lin Tian's smile.
I'm clearly about to succeed, why is he smiling?
Could it be that he's crazy?
Yue Qingying felt that she couldn't understand Lin Tian.
However, she didn't delay the extraction of the pill because of Lin Tian's strange smile. Just as she opened the furnace lid and was about to take out the pill, Lin Tian's countdown in his heart reached the end.
"Destroy!"
Following Lin Tian's incantation, the pill that was originally lying gently in the cauldron suddenly trembled and became extremely unstable.
The extreme cold that Yue Qingying had previously suppressed also erupted at this moment, rapidly destroying the medicinal properties of the pill.
This Spiritual Transformation Pill that was being nurtured in the blazing furnace was now covered in frost.
Its smooth and round surface was covered in many spots, as if it had been eaten by countless insects.
This scene made Yue Qingying a little confused.
"What, what's going on?"
Mo Yu stared blankly at the changes in the furnace. He'd refined many pills, but he'd never seen such a strange thing.
Elder Mi's eyes were also wide open, his face filled with disbelief.
He was a peak ninth rank alchemist who was only a step away from becoming a master, but even he couldn't understand what was going on.
Everyone looked at this scene in shock. Then, they recalled Lin Tian's confident guarantee and couldn't help but think, Did this kid really see through some flaw?
However, as soon as this thought appeared, they were given a fright. They all shook their heads, feeling that it was impossible.
After all, if Lin Tian could see through a mistake that even Elder Mi couldn't, didn't that mean that he was even better than Elder Mi?
If this had been done by a famous alchemist, they could still accept it.
However, no one dared to believe Lin Tian's words.
Because Lin Tian was just too young, no one believed that his alchemy skills were better than Elder Mi's. They felt that this was most likely just a coincidence.
After a while, Yue Qingying stopped refining the pill.
The flames in the furnace were also extinguished at this moment.
She stared blankly at the shattered Spiritual Transformation Pill in the furnace. In the end, she'd failed.
"How did you know?"
Yue Qingying turned to look at Lin Tian with a complicated expression. Her beautiful eyes were filled with countless questions. She'd clearly formed the pill and was about to take it out. How could she have failed at this moment?
Yue Qingying found it hard to accept.
"You want to know?"
Lin Tian smiled evilly. He suddenly reached out and lifted a strand of Yue Qingying's hair. Under everyone's shocked and angry gazes, he sniffed it with an intoxicated expression. Then, he laughed lewdly. "Be my maid for three months, and I'll tell you. I'll even teach you how to refine pills. How about it?"
When everyone saw this scene, their faces were filled with astonishment. They instantly exploded.
Mo Yu, in particular, was so angry that his eyes turned red. His face was gloomy, and he clenched his fists. He wanted to kill someone.
Ahhh!!!
You have to know, this is my goddess!!
But now, Lin Tian was flirting with Yue Qingying right in front of his face.
How could Mo Yu accept this? His heart was filled with anger and jealousy.
Bai Chang Feng also had a face full of shock. Dumbfounded, he didn't know what to say at this point. He's starting to think Lin Tian must've lost his mind.
First, he wanted the famous Miss of the Su House to be his maid.
Now, he's actually having ideas about our Miss.
He's a complete lunatic. I don't know what he's talking about. Who gave him the courage and confidence to do this?
