Soon, he greeted Master Huang with a broad smile and respectfully invited him out.

Master Huang, dressed in a flowing black robe with a serene smile on his face, nodded slightly upon hearing the matter and readily agreed to appraise the elixir.

"Master Huang, these are the pills I purchased from Fang's Pill Shop. Could you please appraise them and tell me their quality?"

With a polite smile on his face, Ye Qianqiu gestured for Ye Qianqian to hand over the porcelain bottle containing the pills.

Ye Qianqian moved gracefully and walked to Master Huang, presenting the porcelain vase with both hands.

Master Huang reached out and steadily took the porcelain bottle, his movements unhurried and measured, displaying the composure characteristic of an expert.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, first carefully examining the appearance of the porcelain bottle. He saw that the patterns carved on the bottle were indeed the Fang family's exclusive style. Then, he gently lifted the lid of the porcelain bottle with his finger.

In an instant, a rich and unique aroma of medicinal pills wafted out of the porcelain bottle, quickly filling the entire shop.

"It smells so good!"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise first.

"It smells so refreshing!"

Then someone else joined in the shouting.

"This pill seems rather interesting."

An old man stroked his beard, muttering to himself thoughtfully.

The elixir had not yet fully revealed itself, but the mere wisp of fragrance it emitted had already astonished many. Everyone craned their necks, their eyes fixed on the porcelain bottle in Master Huang's hand, eagerly anticipating the unveiling.

Just as everyone was filled with anticipation and the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, Master Huang's steady hand tilted slightly, the porcelain bottle trembled slightly, and soon, a pill slowly rolled out from the mouth of the bottle and landed steadily in his palm.

At this moment, Fang Han strolled leisurely into the Zhao family's medicine shop.

However, at this moment, everyone in the shop was focused on Master Huang and the pill in his hand.

They were afraid of missing any crucial details.

Apart from Master Huang, Ye Qianqiu, and Ye Qianqian, who noticed Fang Han's arrival with their keen peripheral vision, the others paid no attention to Fang Han.

Everyone stared intently and saw that the pill was an extremely pure orange-yellow color, full and bright, without the slightest impurity.

What's even more peculiar is that there's a faint, flowing light surrounding the pill. That light, like a lively sprite, flickers and swirls gently, adding a touch of mystery to the pill.

At the same time, the aroma of the elixir grew stronger, like a surging tide, instantly permeating every corner of the shop, causing everyone's nostrils to tremble and becoming intoxicated by it.

"This pill looks pretty good!"

A young man in the crowd broke the silence first, his eyes wide with amazement, his words tinged with barely suppressed excitement.

"The Fang family could never refine such a pill! They have always been able to refine only ordinary pills; this is simply beyond their capabilities."

A middle-aged man frowned and shook his head repeatedly, his tone full of doubt and certainty.

"That's right. Even if the Fang family has made some breakthroughs in alchemy, at most they can only refine a mid-grade Body Tempering Pill. There is absolutely no way they could produce a pill of this quality."

Another old man echoed, his eyes scrutinizing, seemingly already denying the possibility that the Fang family could have refined this pill.

"Please be quiet and wait for Master Huang's appraisal. What he said is absolutely correct!"

A burly man in the crowd shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice booming like a bell, instantly drowning out the murmurs of the crowd.

His face was filled with trust in Master Huang, as if all the mysteries would be solved as soon as Master Huang spoke.

"That's true. Master Huang is a great figure who is capable of refining Qi Transformation Pills. Looking at the entire Tianyuan County, even the famous alchemists in Divine Doctor Valley cannot compare with Master Huang in terms of alchemy skills."

A man in a long robe, with a refined demeanor, nodded slightly, his expression full of respect and admiration for Master Huang.

For a moment, the people in the medicine shop were once again discussing it, with various voices intertwined.

"Everyone, please be quiet."

Just as everyone was discussing and making a ruckus, Master Huang's calm and steady voice rang out.

His gaze swept calmly over the noisy crowd around him, his eyes carrying a confident air.

He already knew the grade of this pill.

The Fang family's superior-grade Meridian Opening Pill is exquisitely crafted and of extraordinary quality, already approaching the level of a top-grade Meridian Opening Pill.

As soon as Master Huang spoke, the once bustling medicine shop, which resembled a marketplace, fell silent instantly, as if time itself had frozen.

Everyone seemed to be frozen in place, holding their breath and focusing their gazes on Master Huang.

Everyone knew that Master Huang was about to announce the appraisal results of this highly anticipated elixir, and that these results would very likely overturn everyone's previous understanding.

Under everyone's gaze, Ye Qianqiu crossed his arms, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Ye Qianqian stood gracefully to the side, her expression calm.

Zhao Mengde, on the other hand, seemed quite calm.

"Gentlemen, this pill is indeed a top-grade Meridian Opening Pill."

The next moment, Master Huang's voice slowly echoed in the shop, like a thunderclap, instantly breaking the silence.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
