Chapter 7: The Swimming Pool Was Blown Up (1/2)



Xiaoxi is naturally outgoing and friendly.

Within two days, she had gotten along very well with the servants and was very familiar with the house.

During the day, Xiaoxi seems to be playing around the manor, but in reality, she is wandering around looking for conditions that will be favorable for her to repair the chain.

She told her brother that she was growing to love their home more and more.

This is something Ye Yichen is very happy to see. He is also very busy at the end of the year and has even less time to take care of Xiaoxi, so he lets his sister have fun.

But Xiaoxi did not indulge in a comfortable life. She still diligently cultivated her skills and had begun to study the books her master had given her.

To improve one's cultivation level, the best shortcut right now is to refine pills; at this stage, the only option is to take enhancement pills.

The Enhancement Pill is the most basic pill in the book, and it seems to be the easiest to use.

The Ye family manor is located on the edge of the Deer Mountain Forest, and Xiao Xi has actually collected all the herbs in the woods these past two days.

Now, she needs an alchemy furnace.

Xiaoxi actually found an old clay pot in the kitchen storage room. This clay pot looked a lot like the kind sold by vendors selling lotus seed soup, so Xiaoxi decided to give it a try.

But where is a suitable place to refine elixirs? It requires an absolutely quiet place.

Xiaoxi quickly found the place; it turned out to be a rooftop.

There is a swimming pool on the roof. Uncle Qin said it was built especially for the Fifth Young Master.

Her fifth brother is often away from home, but when he does come back, he has to swim and exercise every day to maintain his physique.

So the rooftop pool area is a great spot; hardly anyone comes here, and it's close to the water. It's perfect for alchemy.

Xiaoxi got up even earlier today, took a shower, and rushed to the rooftop.

Taking advantage of the faint light of dawn, Xiaoxi took out a clay pot, herbs, pill formula, a large pot of water, and a bundle of firewood from her brocade storage bag.

This was her first time refining elixirs, and it was a very ceremonial process.

She built a frame with firewood, set up a clay pot, added water to the pot, and then threw in the medicinal herbs according to the prescribed ratio.

A fire was started under the clay pot. Xiaoxi was very familiar with starting a fire, boiling water, and heating food, having worked in the garbage dump shack before.

Once the medicinal broth boiled, Xiaoxi reduced the amount of firewood and simmered it slowly over a low flame.

In the early morning, the manor was full of spiritual energy. She guided her energy into her dantian and then channeled the spiritual power in her body into the casserole through her fingers.

Suddenly, she realized she could see inside the casserole dish. A flash of inspiration struck her—this was the legendary divine sense!

After several attempts, Xiaoxi became more and more proficient in using her divine sense.

She used her divine sense to see the medicinal soup in the casserole pot slowly reducing in volume.

Xiao Xi continued to infuse spiritual energy, constantly observing the changes in the casserole.

After the medicinal liquid was reduced, it began to slowly solidify. She became increasingly careful to infuse it with spiritual power, separating the residue from the essence of the medicine. The essence then condensed together with her gradually strengthening willpower.

It must be said that Xiaoxi is also exceptionally talented in alchemy, managing to form an elixir using an ordinary steaming clay pot.

Even though Xiaoxi dared not get carried away, the thing she feared still happened.

After all, a clay pot is just an ordinary clay pot. It is not worthy of its position. How could it possibly bear the spiritual pills?

Almost at the same time, Xiaoxi sensed something and cried out, "Oh no!"

At the last second, she quickly used her divine sense to transfer the scalding hot pill into her storage pouch.

Then, the sandbag, unable to bear the weight, flew into the pool with a loud bang.

The casserole sank to the bottom of the pool, finally disintegrating and exploding violently again, splashing water high into the air.

Meanwhile, Ye Yichen had just gotten up and was watching the morning news in his study.

He heard two loud bangs and was startled: Why is there thunder in winter?
