A hero saving a beauty is truly harming others. She didn't dare to try again in the future.
When she returned to her room, she did not even think of a way to resolve this issue. Thus, she did not sleep well for the whole night as she kept thinking and thinking.
With the extent of her mental state, even if she had a small conflict with Tuoba Rui, she had never experienced insomnia. From this, it could be seen how much of an issue this had caused to her.
Until the morning of the next day, Hua Ruge only thought of one method, and that was to try his best not to meet each other.
Since they were going to go to the Profound Beast Forest anyway, when the three major sects get together, there would be very little to see.
After thinking about it, her heart felt somewhat relieved. Just as she was about to catch up on her sleep, a knock sounded on the door once again.
"Li Dahai, wake up, Pill Master Cheng is calling you." The maid's voice sounded from outside.
Hua Ruge unwillingly got up and followed her.
The maid looked at his listless expression and could not help but ask, "You didn't sleep well last night?"
"Yes, I drank too much. My head hurts." Hua Ruge said casually.
"You are truly extraordinary to be able to make a pill refiner bring out wine for you to drink. Normally, pill refiners are not allowed to give wine to others to taste." The maidservant gossiped.
Hua Ruge yawned: "I was just lucky."
Arriving at the Pill Room, Hua Ruge realized that Cheng Sheng was still walking around the room. He did not know what had happened.
"Master Alchemist." Hua Ruge bowed in greeting.
"Alright, alright. I just remembered this morning. I only barely got a placing in the sect. If I were to enter the Alchemist Competition, wouldn't I only lose?" Cheng Sheng asked anxiously.
Hua Ruge thought, this was obvious.
"How can that be? It's possible that my Brahmin is powerful, but those two sects are simply unable to compare with us." Hua Ruge said casually, she did not even believe those words herself.
Cheng Sheng waved his hand: "What do you know? My top priority right now is to concoct a sixth grade pellet. Do you have any ideas?"
"Sir, you are a pill refiner, and I am only an apprentice alchemist. How could I possibly think of such a method?" Hua Ruge shook his head.
She did not think highly of Cheng Sheng's talent.
To become a Tier 6 pill refiner in three days? Unless her strength were to rise and she were to reveal herself to guide him, it would be impossible for him to do so.
"Of course I know that you're an apprentice apothecary. Think about it carefully. Have you ever heard of any method?" Cheng Sheng did not give up just because of this.
Hua Ruge thought that it was too obvious if he rejected her directly, so he said, "Then let me think."
Cheng Sheng nodded his head repeatedly, then took out a pill formula of a Sixth Grade Earth Yuan Pill and gave it to Hua Ruge: "Go and prepare the ingredients for me, I will concoct the pills."
The corner of Hua Ruge's eyes twitched, he wondered how many spirit medicines were about to be ruined.
She did not waste any time and quickly brought back ten portions of spiritual medicine.
Cheng Sheng started to concoct pills again. This time, he had obtained a large sense of accomplishment, which also caused him to be more interested in the Dao of alchemy.
However, a Grade 6 Elixir was different from a Grade 5 Elixir. The difficulty of purifying it was much higher. Not only did it have to be properly controlled and have a high intensity flame, it also required a strong apothecary.
Cheng Sheng's strength was obviously not enough, after purifying two stalks of Spirit Grass, his forehead started to sweat, the intensity of the flames were obviously weaker.
The reason why apothecaries were rare was because they needed to raise their own strength and pill forging skills at the same time. It would require a huge amount of effort and experience, and most people wouldn't be able to deal with them.
There were very few people who were as blessed as Hua Ruge, who had eight times the same level of strength as him, and who also had the pill cultivating techniques left behind by the original owner's mother.
She already knew that Cheng Sheng wouldn't be able to succeed, so she didn't look at it and just laid on the table, dozing off.
In any case, he could participate in the Alchemy Competition now. As long as Hua Ruge followed behind him and watched what the three great sects were up to, it wouldn't affect him much whether he won or not.
Cheng Sheng gave up after purifying the three Spirit Grasses, and panted non-stop by the side.
"I'm still not strong enough." he gasped.
Hua Ruge was still dozing off at the side.
"How difficult is the art of alchemy? How could there be someone who could achieve such a feat at such a young age?" Cheng Sheng said in disbelief as he looked at the mess on the ground after his failure.
Hua Ruge still did not reply, he was already about to fall asleep.
"Li Dahai, what do you think?" Cheng Sheng turned his head and asked.
Hua Ruge rubbed his nose, and muttered: "You mean Pill Master Song?"
"He's nothing. Have you heard of the Hua Ruge of Sky Mansion Academy?" Cheng Sheng raised his voice.
When Hua Ruge heard his name, he subconsciously opened his eyes and nodded his head: "I have, two days ago I heard from Brother Cui that she might already be a Tier 9 Pill Refiner."
"Even though she said that, I don't really believe it. But if she said that she didn't, then how could she become the head of the Danyang Peak?" Cheng Sheng said.
Today, he wasn't going to throw a tantrum, but he was a little suspicious of the world.
Hua Ruge rubbed his nose and said: "It's possible that he's blessed by the heavens."
"The Element Body is indeed blessed, but it is extremely difficult to cultivate them. That little girl must have had a good luck." Cheng Sheng said as he looked at the medicinal liquid that had failed to purify on the ground. "I actually want to see her more and more.
Hua Ruge could tell that Cheng Sheng was much more interested in refining pills.
She smiled and said, "Perhaps I will be able to see it. I believe that at that time, she will guide you."
Right now, she was guiding this person with the truth. It was just that the time was not right.
"Forget it, I won't think about it." Cheng Sheng stood up and said: "I won't be calling you for help for the next few days, I'm going back to my closed door cultivation, what do you want to do?"
0
Hua Ruge stood up, and slightly bowed as he said, "I wish Master Alchemist a successful promotion."
"Kid, you're the only one who knows how to say that. Let's go." Cheng Sheng laughed and left.
Hua Ruge looked at Cheng Sheng's back and felt complicated.
She had a good impression of most of the members of the Devil's Gate, but she would soon be on their opposite side, and whether or not she wanted to do it.
She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she thought. In the end, she could only sigh and head back to her own residence.
She didn't know what would happen in the future, so she could only take things one step at a time.
Just as Cheng Sheng had said, she did not find her for the next few days. After Hua Ruge calmed down, she also closed up at her residence.
Right now, it was very possible that she could encounter danger at any time, so she could not be careless. When she had time, she could not relax.
According to Tuoba Rui's words, she would need to rest for a few months. Fortunately, she had the assistance of a few medicinal pellets which greatly reduced the time she needed to rest. She felt that if she was given another half a month, she would be able to quell her restlessness and raise her strength completely to the level of Great War Master.
With her physique, even a Saint rank master would probably have to give way by then.
