Celestial Refining Divine Scripture-Chapter 147 - 45: Ordinary Beginnings and Departure
But as Xu Yang began to refine the pill, Bai Jingxue’s curiosity turned into bewilderment and confusion!
She couldn’t understand!
Really couldn’t understand!
Xu Yang’s alchemy was already different from that of ordinary Alchemists; for familiar pills, he could even effortlessly split his focus into two or three parts.
He dumped all the Spirit Elixirs in at once, then just ignited the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod’s Spirit Fire.
The whole process was as simple as eating or drinking water!
Anyone watching would be utterly baffled!
In the end, it was the Six Heavenly Skills that truly stunned Bai Jingxue.
But still, she had no idea what was going on!
When the supreme-grade pill emerged, a shocking aura erupted, and the pill shot skyward, seemingly trying to escape. Bai Jingxue’s beautiful eyes were wide with astonishment!
Just like the legends!
Supreme-grade pills can have spirit, able to fly through the heavens and burrow into the earth!
"Miss Bai, I did not fail your trust!"
After suppressing the Spirit Pill, Xu Yang waved his sleeve, and the Spirit Pill appeared before Bai Jingxue.
The pill’s radiance slowly faded, but the overwhelming spiritual energy hit Bai Jingxue straight on, making her swallow nervously without meaning to.
Just one deep breath of the pill’s aroma was enough to make her feel her soul ascend!
Bai Jingxue suppressed her shock, put away the Spirit Pill, and sincerely sighed, "Although I don’t understand the Alchemy Dao, Mr. Xu, your alchemy methods are truly formidable. I’m afraid that within three years, you’ll become an alchemy master even stronger than the Pill King!"
"Miss Bai, you’re exaggerating!"
Suddenly, Bai Jingxue playfully winked and said, "From now on, I hope the Bai Family can rely more on Mr. Xu! If you ever need anything, just speak up. The Bai Family will never let you down!"
Xu Yang smiled, "That would be my honor!"
The atmosphere instantly became more harmonious than ever!
Bai Jingxue was well aware of the benefits that befriending an Alchemist like Xu Yang could bring!
Honestly, even more than being allied with a Pill King!
Right now, with fourth-tier supreme-grade pills, she could bolster the Bai Family’s younger generation!
In a year or two, fifth-tier supreme-grade pills could strengthen their core ranks!
And three or five years later, sixth-tier supreme-grade pills could greatly increase the power of the Bai Family’s top experts, perhaps even helping them break through their limits!
Just thinking about it excited her!
Bang bang!!
"Mr. Xu?"
Suddenly there was a knock at the door.
Su Yun?
Xu Yang raised an eyebrow and said in a low voice, "Come in!"
Su Yun pushed the door and entered, and when she saw Bai Jingxue, she was briefly startled.
Of course she recognized Bai Jingxue!
However, although Bai Jingxue didn’t know Su Yun, she was stunned for a moment by Su Yun’s beauty.
A true enchantress!
Bai Jingxue glanced deeply at Su Yun, then turned to Xu Yang, bowed her head, and said, "Since you have a guest, I won’t disturb you any longer, Mr. Xu."
"Mr. Xu, come visit the Bai Family if you have time."
"Certainly!"
Watching Bai Jingxue leave, Xu Yang looked at Su Yun and asked curiously, "What brings you here?"
Su Yun’s eyes were full of resentment: "So, Mr. Xu got cozy with the Bai Family’s heiress and doesn’t want to see me anymore?"
She was also impressed by Bai Jingxue’s gentle beauty!
A woman like that would be a huge temptation for most men!
Let alone the fact that she’s the Bai Family’s eldest miss!
In terms of status, Su Yun couldn’t compete with Bai Jingxue!
As for being a virtuous wife, even though Su Yun was confident, she still felt a bit discouraged when up against Bai Jingxue!
Xu Yang’s mouth twitched and he said impatiently, "Get to the point?"
"Alchemy!"
Su Yun directly took out a Storage Ring, smiled sweetly and said, "Mr. Xu wouldn’t refuse such a small request, right?"
She wanted to get stronger too.
With all the young prodigies popping up, all of them were at the Yang Realm—she really felt a huge amount of pressure.
She was only at the Middle Stage of the Yang Realm!
"I still can’t refine fifth-tier supreme-grade pills." Xu Yang took a look and gently shook his head.
"Top-grade is enough—I’m easy to please!" Su Yun threw Xu Yang a flirty look, bashful and charming!
Xu Yang acted as if he hadn’t seen it, turning his back to Su Yun and sitting cross-legged.
Su Yun gritted her teeth in frustration!
This guy was completely unresponsive!
So many men would give anything for me, but this guy acts like I don’t even exist!
Is it that I’m not attractive enough?
Or does this guy just like Bai Jingxue’s type?
Su Yun started to doubt her own charm.
After this scene, she was even more determined to conquer Xu Yang!
It wasn’t about anything else—it was just a strong woman’s instinctive urge to conquer a powerful man!
The more Xu Yang ignored her, the more her desire to conquer him burned!
I don’t believe this!
"What do you think of Song Yuanhao?"
Xu Yang suddenly asked.
"Song Yuanhao?"
Su Yun was stunned, then thought for a moment. "I haven’t interacted much with him, but Song Yuanhao has an excellent reputation within the Celestial Travelers’ Commerce Association. In terms of conduct and skills, he’s upright and impeccable—someone even the President values greatly!"
"Is that so...?" Xu Yang’s eyes flashed with a glint.
Back at the square, Song Yuanhao’s decisions had been crisp and resolute, with no faults at all!
He was basically the one Celestial Travelers’ Commerce Association had chosen to bet on!
That, after all, had been his intent!
Still, he couldn’t shake the feeling that Song Yuanhao wasn’t as simple as he seemed!
There was a vague sense of unease Xu Yang couldn’t quite explain!
Xu Yang gently shook his head, pushed aside stray thoughts—regardless of what kind of person Song Yuanhao was, he would just be more cautious in future dealings!
With what he had already shown, it could only benefit Celestial Travelers’ Commerce Association, never hurt it!
A quarter of an hour later!
Xu Yang handed the fifth-tier pill to Su Yun!
Su Yun’s face lit up as she gazed at Xu Yang, smiling enchantingly: "Mr. Xu, will you refine a supreme-grade pill for me one day?"
Xu Yang replied blandly, "Mr. Su once saved my life; what are a few pills in comparison?"
Su Yun’s eyes sparkled, moist and alluring. She licked her lips and suddenly leaned closer to Xu Yang, and in a voice dripping with temptation, said, "But I have nothing to repay you with... how about offering myself instead?"
Xu Yang stared expressionlessly at her alluring face just inches away, eyes full of playful interest: "Mr. Su, if you don’t leave now, there might very well be a bloodbath."
"Huh?"
Su Yun froze, blinking in confusion, not understanding why!
Suddenly.
Her heart trembled, a chill running down her back!
Su Yun shivered involuntarily and glanced to the side on instinct.
On the courtyard wall stood a tall silhouette, no one knew when she’d arrived. She was looking down at Su Yun with eyes full of Evil Qi!
Tuoba Hongyu!
Su Yun’s lovely eyes shrank. In her heart, she cursed, ’Damn bitch!’
Instantly, she withdrew her gaze like nothing had happened, flashed Xu Yang an aggrieved smile, and decisively turned to leave!
She could sense a thick killing intent!
After Su Yun left, Tuoba Hongyu leapt down, her tone mocking and cold: "Mr. Xu, your skills at charming women are truly impressive. I, Your Highness, am in awe!"
Xu Yang replied blandly, "Your Highness seems to be meddling too much!"
"You’re my husband!"
Tuoba Hongyu took a step forward, eyes boring into Xu Yang!
"That’s just pretend—both of us know it!"
"It could be real!"
"If I want it to be real, it won’t be fake!"
She pressed in on Xu Yang again, her gaze steady as ever.
Xu Yang was briefly stunned—was this woman triggered or something?
He looked Tuoba Hongyu up and down, then suddenly chuckled and teased, "Really?"
"Is Your Highness being sincere?"
"Want to find out?"
Tuoba Hongyu straightened her chest slightly, a captivating smile on her lips.
"I couldn’t ask for more!"
"Please!"
Xu Yang grinned and walked straight toward the room.
Tuoba Hongyu was momentarily dumbfounded!
He’s not rejecting it?
This...
"What, scared now?" Xu Yang suddenly turned around, his eyes ice-cold.
"You...who’s scared of who?"
Tuoba Hongyu gritted her teeth, eyes fierce, thrust out her chest, and strode into the room first.
Bang!
The door slammed shut!
"Go on then. Let me see Your Highness’s sincerity!"
Xu Yang stared at Tuoba Hongyu’s back, expressionless as he spoke.
