97. The Alchemist’s Actions
—
Lin Nuo: ???
Lin Nuo only then understood the saying ‘Silence is golden, but when I speak, it’s startling.’ Qin Shili’s words had shocked him to the core.
Excuse me? Jump straight to cultivating together?
I, Lin Nuo, haven’t done anything, and here you are, sending me straight to jail.
“Cultivating… together?!”
Hearing this, Li Ruoruo’s eyes lost their sparkle, as if she had lost faith in the future.
Her young master had cultivated together with Qin Shili, the strongest young disciple of the Xuan Yun Sect!
No wonder the young master hadn’t cultivated with her; he had already chosen someone else.
Indeed, the young master has always liked Sister Shili, and with his strength, he should cultivate with the strong. I, Li Ruoruo, am naturally not worthy to cultivate with the young master.
The future seemed bleak, uncertain where to go, as if she was of no use to the young master anymore.
Sect Leader Zhao frowned, asking sternly, “Cultivating together? Have you really gone that far?”
Shi Li calmly stated, “He’s practicing with me, that’s dual cultivation.”
From noble mtl dot come
Lin Nuo listened and thought, what a term! By that logic, since you’re my female friend, can I call you my girlfriend?
“Isn’t it the dual cultivation that balances yin and yang?” Master Zhao continued to inquire.
“It’s not.”
“Then what are you two practicing together?”
“Martial arts sparring, and I lost.”
“And just now?”
“Just a minor accident, and since I’m the loser, he has the right to do so.”
Shi Li spoke these words with an expressionless face, prompting Lin Nuo to interject, “Hold on, it was an accident. The branch broke, and we both fell. It wasn’t intentional on my part.”
“It’s all the same.”
“How can it be the same?”
Lin Nuo was at a loss for words with his second senior sister’s remarks. How could they be the same? One is passive, the other active. They can’t be the same, even in a court of law, the judgment wouldn’t be the same.
“So, you were practicing, and then an accident occurred?” Master Zhao tried to clarify, asking.
“Yes.”
Lin Nuo quickly spoke before Shi Li could, preventing her from spouting nonsense.
Seeing Master Zhao present, Shi Li knew it wasn’t appropriate to practice with Lin Nuo, so she politely bowed, “Master Zhao, I shall take my leave now.”
She walked away lightly, not forgetting to give Li Ruoruo a disdainful glance.
The talk of dual cultivation was actually meant for her to hear.
Li Ruoruo pouted. Although she was weak, she couldn’t lose her spirit.
Even if you’ve dual cultivated with the young master, it doesn’t change the fact that I, Li Ruoruo, was the first to do so with him!
After Shi Li left, Lin Nuo was left alone to be reprimanded by Master Zhao, who told him to be mindful of his image with Shi Li, as the recent scene was quite unseemly.
Who’s to blame for the accident?
After Master Zhao left, Lin Nuo planned to return with Li Ruoruo.
“Young master, did you really dual cultivate with Sister Shi Li?” Li Ruoruo asked with a pout.
“How can we dual cultivate with clothes on?”
“Oh, right. Young master, it seems we haven’t dual cultivated in a long time. Should we try it again? It might improve your cultivation.”
“No cultivation, don’t let your thoughts wander.”
Lin Nuo gently tapped Li Ruoruo’s head, “Also, learn how to lie better next time. She saw right through what you said and came here.”
“Um…”
Li Ruoruo had no retort; indeed, her little scheme had been exposed, which brought Shi Li here.
“Let’s go.”
Lin Nuo and Li Ruoruo headed back, and on the way, they saw a man carrying a medicine chest, chatting and laughing with the other elders.
“Young Master, who is that man carrying the medicine chest?”
“Yu Zheng, the current alchemist of Xuan Yun Sect, skilled in refining various elixirs.”
“Oh, Young Master, you mentioned before that you would be learning alchemy soon.”
“Yes, tomorrow.”
“Oh, then good luck, Young Master~ Learning to refine elixirs will be quite beneficial for you in the future.”
“I’ll certainly need to put in the effort.”
Lin Nuo smiled. His own encouragement wasn’t for learning alchemy, but for another purpose.
The Black Scale Stone in his possession had long been starving for action. Soon, he would be able to end his days as an unsuccessful villain, blow up the protagonist, and become the ruler of the future.
…
Tian Ling Mountain, Alchemy Room.
Here, there were numerous alchemy furnaces, all for the use of the Xuan Yun Sect disciples.
The door to the Alchemy Room was opened, and a man carrying a medicine chest walked in, placing the chest to one side.
He was the manager of this Alchemy Room, the alchemist of Xuan Yun Sect, Yu Zheng.
He held a list in his hand, with the names of the disciples written on it.
He glanced over the list and found that name.
“Mu Yiting.”
He chuckled, marking a cross next to Mu Yiting’s name, then a large cross over the entire list, like a death register, where the names crossed out represented death.
He walked to an alchemy furnace and took out a black stone from his pocket.
The Black Scale Stone, a highly explosive blasting stone.
He placed the Black Scale Stone into one of the alchemy furnaces and concealed it well; its presence was not visible on the surface.
Now, the Black Scale Stone was ready, just waiting for the grand feast during the alchemy session.
Mu Yiting would die, as would all the other disciples present for alchemy; no one would escape their fate.
