As a seventh-grade spiritual alchemist and a grandmaster of alchemy at the Sacred Pill Pavilion, why was Jiang Rong so concerned about these three types of spiritual pills?
Even if the alchemy methods for these three spiritual pills were lost, there was no need to be so anxious, right? After all, they were only first-grade spiritual pills!
Sheng Xinyue opened his mouth to speak but suddenly remembered Qin Ning’s personality and hesitated.
Qin Ning had just instructed him to throw these three types of spiritual pills away.
This indicated that Qin Ning was extremely dissatisfied with the three spiritual pills he had refined.
If he told Grandmaster Jiang Rong that Qin Ning had refined them, he was afraid it would displease Qin Ning.
“Speak quickly!” Jiang Rong couldn’t help but urge.
“Grandmaster Jiang!” Sheng Xinyue said, “These three types of spiritual pills were obtained by a wandering hero who broke into an ancient cave and then sold them to the Sacred Pill Pavilion. I don’t know who refined them!”
Hearing this, Jiang Rong’s face clearly showed disappointment.
Seeing this, Jiu Shi immediately said, “Grandmaster Jiang, they are just first-grade spiritual pills. Why are you so concerned?”
“First-grade spiritual pills?”
Jiang Rong sighed and said, “These three first-grade spiritual pills hold great significance!”
Jiang Rong carefully explained, “These three spiritual pills, each type complements the others, and they are specifically used to help martial artists in the Spirit Sea realm restore their Spirit Sea. Not to mention their extreme preciousness, here, you two carefully taste them!”
As soon as Jiang Rong finished speaking, Sheng Dengfeng and Jiu Shi stepped forward together and carefully tasted a bit of the powder.
Afterward, the expressions on their faces gradually changed.
At this moment, Jiang Rong slowly said, “If I were to rate these elixirs, they would be at least nine points!”
Nine points!
Hearing this, the two exchanged glances. Although they felt a shock in their hearts, they still nodded slightly.
If judged purely as first-grade spiritual pills, these elixirs truly deserved nine points.
“Spiritual pills of this caliber mostly originated from the hands of some spiritual alchemists thousands of years ago. As time passed, many alchemy methods were lost. For the alchemy world, this can be called a great loss!”
Hearing this, Sheng Xinyue’s expression looked very strange.
“Give this old man one of each. This old man will go back and study them!” Grandmaster Jiang Rong exclaimed.
“Yue’er, didn’t you hear Grandmaster Jiang Rong’s words?”
“Yes, yes!”
Sheng Xinyue immediately took out one of each type and handed them to Jiang Rong.
Looking at Jiang Rong’s cautious and reserved manner, Sheng Xinyue only felt it was strange.
Afterward, Grandmaster Jiang Rong, somewhat absent-minded, strode away.
Jiu Shi hurriedly followed.
At this moment, Sheng Dengfeng finally sighed.
“You stinky brat, are you stupid?”
Sheng Dengfeng scolded.
“What’s wrong, Father…” Sheng Xinyue didn’t know what to say at this moment.
“These three types of spiritual pills are for restoring the Spirit Sea, and their effects are exceptional. Why didn’t you keep them carefully and instead brought them out to run around?”
Sheng Dengfeng reprimanded, “Don’t you know that Young Master Qin’s elder brother lost his Spirit Sea and needs these spiritual pills to recover?”
Hearing this, Sheng Xinyue’s expression became even stranger.
“You stinky brat, are you unconvinced?” Sheng Dengfeng scolded, “If it weren’t for Qin Ning, could Father have reached fifth-grade spiritual alchemist? Could I have suppressed Jiu Shi?”
“Moreover, today Father has already obtained the three questions for tomorrow’s competition, and I still need Qin Ning to help me answer them. You stinky brat, why do you do things without using your brain?”
“Father, have you reached the fifth-grade Spirit Pill Master rank?”
Sheng Xinyue was utterly astonished.
His father had been stuck at the fifth-grade Spirit Pill Master rank for ten years, and now he had suddenly reached the fifth-grade Spirit Pill Master rank!
“What else do you think?”
Sheng Dengfeng snorted and said, “Quickly put away these three spirit pills and save them for Qin Ning. Little brat, don’t run around, or I’ll skin you alive!”
“Father…”
Sheng Xinyue forced a bitter smile.
“Father, can I speak first?” Sheng Xinyue continued, “These three spirit pills were originally refined by Brother Qin. But he wasn’t satisfied, felt they were flawed, and told me to throw them away. That’s how I met everyone!”
“What did you say?”
Sheng Dengfeng stared at Sheng Xinyue, trembling all over.
These pills were refined by Qin Ning…
But Qin Ning wasn’t satisfied, was about to throw them away, and didn’t even bother to keep them for Shengdan Pavilion to sell.
How dissatisfied must he be to do such a thing?
Yet, a discarded spirit pill was rated nine points by Grandmaster Jiang Rong!
Nine points!
In the entire Beiming Empire, almost no one had ever received such a high rating from Grandmaster Jiang Rong.
Suddenly, Sheng Dengfeng felt his understanding completely overturned.
Qin Ning, what kind of monster was he, exactly?
One could say these spirit pills were incredibly precious, but Qin Ning didn’t even spare them a glance.
Sheng Xinyue didn’t say much either. He knew that his father was reacting just as he had when he first saw Qin Ning refine pills.
Shocked, even feeling that his entire life’s journey had been crooked.
“Why didn’t you mention this earlier?” Sheng Dengfeng reacted, immediately saying, “With Grandmaster Jiang Rong’s praise, Qin Ning will surely catch Grandmaster Jiang Rong’s attention, be taken as his final disciple, and his status will soar!”
“Father…”
Sheng Xinyue helplessly drew out his words, “Do you think… Brother Qin would care about these things?”
“Moreover, Brother Qin told me to throw them away. If he finds out that others have seen them, with his arrogant temperament, he will definitely feel humiliated. Father, tell me… will he still show us any respect?”
“Right, right, right, that makes sense!”
Sheng Dengfeng quickly said, “Tonight, tell the best chef at the Shengque Restaurant to use all his skills to prepare a feast to properly entertain Young Master Qin!”
“I understand, Father!”
Sheng Xinyue chuckled, “Father, Brother Qin is only a first-grade Spirit Pill Master, at the first level of the Spirit Sea realm. You’re so concerned, aren’t you afraid of losing out?”
“Nonsense!”
Sheng Dengfeng scolded, “You don’t know anything!”
“If Qin Ning were only a first-grade Spirit Pill Master, how could he assess fourth-grade spirit herbs so skillfully? Why would he possess such profound pill refining techniques? He is only limited by his pill refining fire grade right now!”
“Moreover, if I hadn’t seen his sixteen or seventeen-year-old appearance, I would even suspect if he was an ancient person who had lived for ten thousand years!”
“Maybe he really is!”
“You stinky brat, talk less nonsense!”
Sheng Dengfeng looked at Sheng Xinyue and said, “Quickly put away the spirit herbs, it’s a pity to throw them away. When I have free time, I’ll try to study them.”
“Oh right, go ask Qin Ning if he can have dinner with us tonight!”
“I’m afraid not!”
