"As expected, she was making fake pills before. Now that she's changed the furnace, she can't even control the fire." On the other side, a group of teenagers dressed similarly to the young man whispered among themselves.
"Why does Your Highness need to take matters into your own hands? We can handle such a trivial matter. Why make such a fuss over a five or six-year-old little liar?"
Everyone assumed that Ruoruo's inability to control the fire caused it to go out.
In fact, Ruoruo was extremely shocked.
She had heard from her master that all her senior brothers and sisters had died, but she had never heard of any junior disciples.
Although Ruoruo thought so, her gaze towards Qinglian became increasingly excited.
My nephew! A species I've never seen before!
She has always been the youngest, and although this person is older than her, he is younger in terms of seniority.
She will definitely be a good nun!
In her excitement, Ruoruo rekindled the furnace fire, and the speed of alchemy unconsciously increased considerably.
A batch of top-grade pills was produced in less than 15 minutes.
Mo Jinyan couldn't help but flap his wings to remind her, "Slow down, slow down, control the quality of the pills."
Ruoruo then barely stopped, increasing the heat on the thirty-six top-grade pills that were almost finished in the furnace, burning twenty-three of them and leaving only thirteen.
While you're at it, burn off all the spiritual energy from the pills that are almost top-grade, thus lowering their quality.
However, the destruction of the pill was too loud, and thick black smoke and a burnt smell billowed from her pill furnace.
The onlookers couldn't help but take a step back, and some even covered their noses with their sleeves: "This little girl doesn't know how to refine pills at all! So what if she knows how to light a furnace? She's probably burned all the medicinal herbs now."
The owner of Cunyitang was even angrier: "Why not just call out the alchemy master behind him? It's a complete waste of time and precious medicine."
"Don't let them burn my furnace." The blacksmith who provided the furnace also felt a bit regretful.
Why bother getting involved in this?
Although this young girl doesn't know how to refine pills, the quality of the spiritual fire in her hand is better than ever before.
This haphazard burning method might damage the internal formation, and he'd have to repair it later.
"It's a pity that such a good fire has fallen into her hands." A pharmacist's eyes gleamed with greed. "If the fire seed fell into my hands, I could definitely refine a better quality pill by cultivating this kind of spiritual fire."
Some people also focused their attention on Ruoruo's shop: "This little girl has now exposed her true colors and lost face. The alchemist behind her should show up by now. I wonder if he is a fraud like this little girl or if he is really capable."
Not to mention others, even Little Fatty Mo Jinyan was a little anxious when he saw the thick smoke: "What's going on? Ruoruo, did you use too much force? Don't burn all the pills, we still need to keep an eye on the line to prove ourselves."
Ruoruo replied telepathically, "Don't worry, Third Brother, I know what I'm doing."
However, because it started too fast, even if it's delayed, it won't last long.
In a little over fifteen minutes, Ruoruo closed her hands in a series of hand seals, and the Phoenix True Fire boiling in the alchemy furnace slowly extinguished. Ruoruo wiped away her sweat with a practiced air.
"Pfft, still putting on an act. What can you possibly refine in a little over a quarter of an hour? Did you burn all those spiritual herbs?" someone mocked.
"I'm not used to the new alchemy furnace yet, so I've been refining a little faster," Ruoruo explained with a smile, showing no anger.
It was her mistake to start practicing too fast.
Yuebai never doubted Ruoruo's strength. He took out the box and was about to go up and collect the pill.
"Wait a minute!" the alchemist who provided the furnace suddenly shouted. "Of course, we should be the ones to collect the pills. Who knows if you've tampered with the boxes?"
His stove has already been damaged like this. If they tamper with it again, wouldn't it be a waste of his stove?
"Okay, you can go collect it." Ruoruo called out to Yuebai.
The man took out a box that could hold pills and stepped forward. He looked carefully into the furnace and said angrily, "As expected, he's a little swindler. It's just a furnace full of dregs. There are no pills in it at all."
“Some medicines were accidentally ruined during the refining process, but some were successfully refined.” Ruoruo said, tossing out a wind talisman.
A gentle breeze swept away the residue in the alchemy furnace, and wisps of elixir fragrance wafted out.
The alchemist stared in disbelief at the remaining pills in the furnace, his hands trembling slightly as he took them out: "There are thirteen pills in total, three top-grade, eight high-grade, and two mid-grade..."
"What!" The owner of Cunyitang reacted the most, and quickly came over to take a closer look.
These pills were accidentally stained with other medicinal ash, making them look somewhat dusty, but their fragrance, patterns, and transparency still confirm that they were indeed dusty.
The crowd gasped in astonishment: "She actually knows how to refine pills!"
Those who had previously voiced their accusations and doubts suddenly felt a burning pain on their faces.
"Sigh, I didn't control the quality of the pills well." Ruoruo looked at the three top-grade pills and felt a little embarrassed. She had accidentally made too many.
If those words landed on their faces like slaps, making their faces sting even more.
Look at them, still questioning whether others can refine pills. They've refined three top-grade pills, and they still think they haven't refined them well enough.
They can show off for ages if they can produce just one egg from a single batch.
An alchemist rushed forward almost frantically and asked, "Young lady... no, senior, please forgive my ignorance, tell me, how did you turn twelve full pills into thirteen?"
