124: I've never seen it before, but now I see it! Heavenly Fire Pill, are you serious?

"Alchemy? You can also perform Alchemy?"

When Xu Chuang heard Ye An, he was visibly stunned, but then he laughed.

"Refining a Grade-1 Pill or a Grade-2 Pill, or perhaps a Grade-3 Pill?"

"Is there even a need to refine Medicinal Pills of that level?"

"How about you tell me what Medicinal Pill you want, and I'll buy it for you?"

"My Xu Family lacks everything but Spirit Stones!"

Looking at Xu Chuang's smug expression, Ye An wanted to slap him.

Damn it, in his previous life, he couldn't even find a single wife, but what about those rich second-generation heirs?

Each of them had countless beauties around them!

Of course, Ye An didn't blame these rich second-generation heirs; after all, it wasn't up to them who women chose to flock around!

But Ye An just felt annoyed!

He didn't expect that after Transmigration, he would still encounter a second-generation heir acting all high and mighty in front of him.

How could he not be angry?

However, Ye An was, after all, seventy years old, and too lazy to bother with Xu Chuang, so he said indifferently,

"If I were refining Grade-3 Medicinal Pills, would I still need your help?"

"Then you're going to refine Grade-4 Medicinal Pills?"

Xu Chuang asked in surprise.

"Although Grade-4 Medicinal Pills are difficult to refine, Jianglan City isn't without Grade-4 Alchemists!"

"The Li Family has two!"

"It's just that I've never heard of you, have I?"

Ye An was too lazy to waste words and said,

"I'm refining Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills!"

"If you keep babbling, do you believe I'll sew your mouth shut?"

"What did you say? Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills?"

Xu Chuang was instantly stunned when he heard this.

Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills and Grade-4 Medicinal Pills are vastly different!

It's the same principle as a Grade-4 Alchemist and a Fifth-Grade Alchemist!

Jianglan City might have Grade-4 Alchemists, but it definitely doesn't have Fifth-Grade Alchemists!

Perhaps some people might ask why!

The reason is simple: Fifth-Grade Alchemists can clearly earn more money in White Province City, so who would be foolish enough to run to a place like Jianglan City to earn less money?

Of course, some people might say!

Aren't there some people who, due to special reasons, choose not to stay in White Province City?

For example, having enemies, wanting to keep a low profile, and so on!

Don't even mention it, it's truly impossible!

The reason is also simple; it can be summarized in four words!

A crane among chickens!

In a place like Jianglan City, there are more Grade-3 Alchemists, and they can still remain anonymous by blending into the crowd!

When it comes to Grade-4, who wouldn't inquire about their name!

Not to mention Fifth-Grade; if a Fifth-Grade Alchemist came to Jianglan City, Old Master Jiang would probably have to personally receive him!

How do you think he could remain anonymous then?

If you say he doesn't perform Alchemy, then he could indeed remain anonymous, but the problem is that not performing Alchemy also means not making money!

Those who are not in the public eye are naturally not within the scope of discussion!

Therefore, when Xu Chuang heard that Ye An was going to refine Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills, he was shocked, even completely disbelieving!

After all, if Ye An had such ability, he would have gone to White Province City long ago; why would he be in Jianglan City!

But how could Xu Chuang know that he had encountered a cunning old fox today!

He just likes to hide in small places; who can you reason with about that!

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

"The Dao of Cultivation and the Dao of auxiliary professions are both extremely time-consuming!"

"There are very few Cultivators who are not only powerful but also skilled in auxiliary professions!"

"Not to mention having a Fifth-Grade Alchemist in a place like Jianglan City!"

"If there were, why have I never seen him!"

Ye An smiled when he heard this.

"Just because you haven't seen him doesn't mean he doesn't exist!"

"Besides, didn't you see him today?"

"You!"

Xu Chuang was speechless!

Ye An was also too lazy to waste words and said,

"If you keep dawdling, do you believe I'll tell my wife to hit you?"

"Hurry up and start the fire; I'm going to begin Alchemy!"

"You!"

Xu Chuang was furious, but when he thought of Liu Bairan's murderous methods, Xu Chuang was still afraid.

He could only angrily run to the side and start gathering firewood to light the fire.

Meanwhile, Ye An wasn't idle either.

He immediately took out the Skyfire Pill Formula and that Fifth-Grade Spiritual Plant, the skyfire lotus!

To be honest, Ye An was lucky this time.

This Fifth-Grade Skyfire Pill is a rare single-herb Medicinal Pill among Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills!

Therefore, Ye An was able to refine it.

If it were a common multi-herb Medicinal Pill, he wouldn't be able to refine it!

The terms single-herb Medicinal Pill and multi-herb Medicinal Pill here actually refer to whether other Spiritual Plants are needed for the Alchemy process.

Generally speaking, to refine a Medicinal Pill, more than one type of Spiritual Plant is required.

Other Spiritual Plants are also needed for cooperation!

However, there are some Medicinal Pills that only require one type of Spiritual Plant to refine!

And such Medicinal Pills are called single-herb Medicinal Pills!

This is also why Xu Chuang was so determined to obtain the skyfire lotus!

He had already obtained the Pill Formula for the Skyfire Pill, and all he lacked was this skyfire lotus, which is why no one dared to compete with him for it!

Meanwhile, Xu Chuang had just finished lighting the fire.

He turned around and saw Ye An holding the skyfire lotus and Pill Formula that he had painstakingly collected, and he immediately became agitated!

"You... you said you were refining Medicinal Pills, but you're actually going to refine my Skyfire Pill?"

Xu Chuang looked at Ye An, barely believing his eyes!

"What? Do you have an opinion?"

"Even if you do, you'll have to keep it to yourself; these things are mine now!"

Ye An said unceremoniously.

However, if Xu Chuang could have held back, he would have been a ghost; he pointed at Ye An and cursed,

"Give them back to me, damn it! Do you know how much time and money I spent collecting the Pill Formula for the Skyfire Pill!"

"I waited five whole years for this skyfire lotus!"

"You can't just ruin them like this!"

"You can't!"

Ye An was utterly annoyed by his shouting; with a wave of his hand, a wall instantly appeared behind Xu Chuang.

Two holes immediately emerged on the wall, and then they locked Xu Chuang's arms inside.

No matter how he struggled, he couldn't break free!

Ye An was also too lazy to listen to his nonsense; seeing that the Pill Furnace had already heated up.

He immediately threw the skyfire lotus into the Pill Furnace!

This scene also made Xu Chuang completely freeze.

The next moment, he directly knelt on the ground, his eyes devoid of light, saying,

"It's over! It's all over!"

"I collected them for five whole years!"

"You scoundrel, you ruined them in an instant!"

"Now it's completely over!"

Ye An controlled the heat while saying impatiently,

"Shouting, shouting! Who are you shouting at, your great-uncle?"

"Didn't you collect the Spiritual Plants and Pill Formula precisely to refine the Skyfire Pill!"

"I'm helping you refine the Skyfire Pill today; instead of saying thank you, what are you wailing about!"

Xu Chuang didn't speak; he just stared blankly at the Pill Furnace, his eyes completely lifeless.

Seeing this, Ye An was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He began to carefully control the heat of the Alchemy, to avoid failure!

The higher the grade of the Medicinal Pill, the more difficult it naturally is to refine.

And the most difficult part is controlling the heat.

Fortunately, Ye An's Alchemy technique is different from others'.

Other people's Alchemy techniques are all experiences they've accumulated little by little!

But Ye An's was given to him by the System, based on the experiences of other Alchemists!

It can be said that Ye An's Alchemist experience is much richer than that of other Alchemists at the same level!

Therefore, his Alchemy looked even more seasoned than an old hand's!

...And as both of them fell silent!

The Pill Refining Room gradually became quiet.

Besides the crackling sound of burning firewood, the aroma of Medicinal Pills gradually began to fill the air!

Smelling this aroma, Xu Chuang's gaze slowly fell back on Ye An.

But seeing Ye An occasionally checking the heat and occasionally checking the condition of the Medicinal Pill!

Gradually, even Xu Chuang was somewhat dumbfounded by what he saw!

He even muttered in his heart,

"Can this kid really refine Fifth-Grade Medicinal Pills?"

"How is this possible!"

But Ye An's Alchemy state was truly too experienced.

Finally, Xu Chuang couldn't help but ask,

"I say, are you serious?"
