Chapter 392 “Something’s Wrong (1)”

It was then another fierce sounding thump came from the cauldron, as such, Qiu Shu Rong’s forehead became even more entrenched with sweat.

But alas, his nervousness was handsomely rewarded with a faint mesmerizing fragrance from within, signaling the success of his endeavour.

It’s formed!

Slowly exhaling a long sigh of relief, the senior can honestly say he would’ve fainted if things didn’t turn out well this time. It’s no a secret his precious disciple’s temper wasn’t to be taken lightly when it came to alchemy. If he fails this time too even under her guidance then he might as well find a hole and squirm in there.

“Sweetie look, I’ve succeeded this time, so….”

“Mmm, pass me the final product so I can examine it,” only then does Bai Yan’s tightly furrowed brow loosen up.

Knowing this was his chance to redeem himself, the Third Elder hurriedly hands the pill in question over while not forgetting to stand in anticipation for the expected praising. Yet, none ever came….

It’s because the woman had turned away to face her grandfather by then right after taking the beady little thing.

“Her Grace the Dowager already told you I’m sure. Whether or not I am a daughter of the Lan House or not…. I will always hold the members of this family as my own, as my closest loved ones.”

Naturally Old Lord Lan would be appeased by that statement, evident by that gratifying smile.

Don’t assume just because this old grandpa was all grumpy and humpy due to his granddaughter’s sudden departure, he only did that out of stubbornness. In fact, Bai Yan was his pride and joy….

“Your mother Lan Yue made a lot of stupid mistakes in her life, but I can say this for sure, she taking you in as her own was the greatest choice she ever made while she was around.”

In response, Bai Yan only raised a smile of neither agreeing nor disagreeing with that statement: “Grandfather, your cultivation is almost at its limit so it will be difficult to achieve anything further. However, if you take this Regrowth Dan pill then you should be able to regain your youthful energy and break into the King Rank.”

As a Sky Rank master, Old Lord Lan was already the family chief of a first rate noble family, now he can actually become a King Rank master and compete with the royal family?

Of course, there’s no such thing as a free meal in this world. Yes it can help the old gramp regain some of his youthful self through the consumption of this pill, but that requires time due to its fierce nature. That means the duration of fully digesting the medicine might take months, or even years to allow the individual to fully take advantage of its effect.

“This…” Old Lord Lan almost couldn’t keep his legs steady as he eyed Bai Yan and the beady little object there.

If there is such a good thing out there then how come I never heard of it before?

Not missing the surprised expressions shooting out of everyone’s faces, Qiu Shu Rong was the first to explain and in a very proud manner as well: “The recipe is something Yan Yan created herself. Aside from us three and herself, none out there will know how to create it! Furthermore, the effects have also been greatly reduced for a regular person’s consumption. If not, you would immediately explode and die considering your current strength.”

In the past, medicinal concoctions like elixirs and Dan pills used for cultivation purposes are usually reserved for King Rank individuals. If not for Bai Yan’s appearance and bringing her reduced versions of various formulas into this world, such a claim would’ve been immediately shot down as outlandish.

For a moment there, all eyes were on the woman, thus causing her to feel both guilty and uneasy with good reasons.

This level of control and knowledge was never part of this world, it’s something she brought over from her previous life. If not for the Holy Land taking her in and allowing her to discover how rudimentary and backward the alchemy here was, she would’ve still been stuck in the illusion that its just other’s being not talented.

“Ahumph,” coughing to clear the mood, Bai Yan awkwardly changes the topic, “Grandfather, why don’t you and everyone else go down first. Third Shifu he still needs to practice some more so it’s best we not disturb him.”

If it was in the past, Old Lord Lan would’ve definitely refused the gracious gift for fear of offending QIu Shu Rong; however, that’s completely changed after seeing the way these four are acting.
