Chapter 940: Chapter 537: Nine-Turn Golden Pill?
Logan knew that anything he said at the moment would be empty talk, so he simply smiled without saying a word.
“Oh, forget it, there will always be someone better than me in this world. If I took issue with that, what would I become? By the way, I remember you once said you could help me with something. I’ve heard of your reputation, your alchemy skill is impressive. Could you refine an elixir for me?”
This actually wasn’t a big deal for Logan, so he agreed without a second thought.
“Alright.”
The City Lord appeared very pleased and clapped his hands, immediately prompting someone to bring over the ingredients.
“These are all the corresponding herbs. Don’t worry, I know the rules. Since I’ve asked you to perform alchemy, I certainly won’t make you use your own materials.”
Seeing that the other party had considered everything, Logan’s smile became a bit more sincere.
Then, taking the herbs, he began the alchemy process.
This should have been an easy task for him, but during the process, White Elizabeth suddenly became uncooperative. And as if that weren’t enough, she deliberately started causing trouble.
The flames under the Furnace Cauldron began to surge, engulfing the entire Alchemy Furnace in fire. The fierce blaze seemed intent on burning the elixir and the furnace to ashes.
Her random acts almost ruined the whole batch of elixirs.
Logan’s eyes narrowed slightly, realizing White Elizabeth was misbehaving. With a flick of his wrist, he pressed down and the flames subsided.
Seeing how Logan had easily calmed the chaos she’d caused, White Elizabeth’s face showed an unsatisfied and pouting look as she switched to another method to wreak havoc.
However, Logan was still able to navigate the crisis, putting in great effort to suppress White Elizabeth’s antics and correct the errors, ultimately controlling the situation perfectly and successfully refining the elixir.
When he produced the elixir, the City Lord had only words of admiration and didn’t notice anything amiss.

Of course, the City Lord wouldn’t approach him while he was performing alchemy, and neither would anyone else.
It was an unspoken agreement, as alchemists all have their own taboos.
But one thing was the same, they did not like having an audience.
Doing so would be akin to giving away their secrets, something that no one would allow.
The City Lord could only wait anxiously on the outside, alternating between worry and relaxation.
After all, Logan was still so young, and the elixir recipe he provided was no ordinary one. Could he really do it? If not, it would be a waste of the painstakingly collected herbs.
Yet the City Lord had seen the elixirs from the Elixir Shop Logan had previously opened, and even had high-level alchemists look at them.
They couldn’t believe it, thinking the techniques were novel and that Logan must be a rare talent.
To be honest, this elixir recipe had already been given to many people.
But so far, very few alchemists had been able to successfully create the elixir.
Even if they managed to barely make it, the quality of the elixirs was worrying.
He was really at his wits’ end, resorting to desperate measures.
Unexpectedly, Logan gave him such a huge surprise by succeeding.
There was no explosion of the furnace, no foul smell, and no look of discouragement on Logan’s face.
By now, the City Lord had gone through a series of mental adjustments and had significantly lowered his expectations.
He didn’t even demand quality; success alone would have been more than satisfying.
“Logan, how did it go? Did you succeed?”
Logan wiped the sweat from his brow and gave a small smile as he handed over the elixir.
“Yes, I’ve not failed you. This batch yields ten pills.”
“Ten pills! My goodness, that’s such high yield! And, it seems that the quality of these elixirs is not low-grade.”
The City Lord took a closer look and found that the pills were indeed of high quality.
High-quality indeed! What a stroke of luck!
“Hahaha, Logan, this is wonderful, truly wonderful. I knew I wasn’t wrong about you, I knew you could do it. You’ve given me such a big surprise, I’m utterly amazed!”
In his excitement and surprise, the City Lord kept patting him on the shoulder.
Logan felt somewhat embarrassed and eventually had to dodge his hands.
“City Lord, I get it, you don’t need to be so excited.”
Only then did the City Lord come to his senses and withdrew his hand, looking somewhat embarrassed.
“Haha, well, you’re my honored guest now, no more words. No matter what, I must reward you properly. Come, I will hold a banquet tonight, to welcome and refresh you!”
Logan had intended to refuse, but he simply couldn’t and allowed himself to be dragged along.
Along the way, the City Lord was virtually chattering non-stop.
“Logan, Logan, you’ve really surprised me immensely. When you first appeared, how could I not have known about your alchemy skill? You’ve hid it well, too well in fact. It seems I underestimated you, perhaps you have other skills I do not know about.”
Logan didn’t know what to say and could only offer modesty in response. Regarding his secrets, he definitely couldn’t reveal them and instead gave evasive answers.
The evening banquet prepared by the City Lord was grand but not crowded with guests.
“This is a gathering between you and me, so I didn’t invite others to disturb us. Besides, I know you prefer to keep a low profile. If word got out, who knows how many would be knocking down the door.”
For this last point of consideration, Logan did feel grateful.
So, he too raised his glass and joined the City Lord in a toast.
“Thank you, City Lord.”
After enjoying fine food and wine,
Logan bowed to the City Lord and excused himself.
