Chapter 341: Chapter 341: The Medicine Lead_1
After confirming there were no traces of lipstick left on his face, Qin Feng let out a big sigh of relief and questioned the darn bird, "Where do you see lipstick marks? There are clearly none. Stop spouting nonsense and slandering me!"
"No marks? Then why did you stop the car? Why did you look at your face in the mirror? I think you’re just feeling guilty! Guilty as a thief! Don’t think just because you’ve wiped off the lipstick marks from your face, I don’t know about the other things you’ve been up to, Hua!"
"What ’other things’ have I been up to?"
"What have you been up to? Shangguan Yan is already calling you ’hubby’, what else do you think you’ve done? If I so much as mention tonight’s events to Xue Xiaochan, do you think she won’t just cripple you on the spot?"
"Hua, my dear Hua, please don’t stir up trouble!"
"You think a few sweet words can seal my lips? Is it that easy? I’m craving some peanuts, Hua. Go grab me a couple of packs, now."
Qin Feng: ...
He had thought the darn bird would threaten him to do something significant, but it turned out all she wanted was two packs of peanuts!
Qin Feng hurried to the nearby convenience store and bought two packs.
"Hua, are you satisfied now?"
"Peel them for me, Hua!"
Qin Feng: ...
When he returned to Villa No. 7 at Rose Manor, Xue Xiaochan was still working overtime at the company and hadn’t come back.
Qin Feng took out the Seven-Dragon Alchemy Furnace and placed it alongside the Nine Dragons Altar. In addition, he took out the Spiritual Medicine he had retrieved from Valley of Thousand Poisons, intending to try making some pills.
While Qin Feng was busy with the medicine preparation, Princess Huahua, who had peeled a large pile of peanut shells, fluttered over.
"Is this the Nine Dragons Altar?" it asked.
"You’ve got sharp eyes, Hua!"
"This Nine Dragons Altar, you must have snagged it from a bargain with Wang Quezi, right?"
"Yes."
"Wang Quezi is from the Southern Faction. If the experts from there find out you’ve got the Nine Dragons Altar, they will definitely come to snatch it. The Southern Faction is not to be trifled with like Loyal Sect. The Loyal Sect’s leader, Ding Zhiming, is merely a fifth-grade Grandmaster who has just stepped into that level.
The strength of a Grandmaster is delineated by the fifth grade. The power above fifth grade is far stronger than that below it. In the Southern Faction, there are several dozens of Grandmasters above the fifth grade. With your current strength, you might barely manage against one or two, but if ten or eight of them come at you, you certainly won’t be able to hold your ground.
So, to keep the Nine Dragons Altar safe, no, to save your own life, you must practice diligently and hasten to improve your strength.
The Nine Dragons Altar is a supreme treasure; not only the other experts of the Southern Faction, but even Feng Buhui would try to rob it if he knew about it. A thousand years ago, the Nine Dragons Altar belonged to the Southern Faction but was later lost. Now that the Nine Dragons Altar has reappeared, it has fortuitously come into your possession. If you aren’t strong enough, you won’t be able to protect it."
Princess Huahua’s words left Qin Feng stunned. He explained, "I’m making pills exactly to quickly boost my strength!"
"What pill are you trying to make?" asked Princess Huahua.
"Solid Foundation Pill."
"Solid Foundation Pills will only stabilize the Xuanhuang Qi in your body, but won’t rapidly increase your power. To gain a rapid increase in strength, with the ingredients you have, you can make the Heaven Yin Pill. Although you have the Nine Dragons Altar, a wonder for brewing pills, the Seven-Dragon Alchemy Furnace you use for alchemy is just average. However, it should suffice for you now."
Heaven Yin Pill?
Qin Feng recalled these three words in his mind and quickly found them in the ’Xuanhuang Medical Classic’.
He did indeed have all of the Spiritual Medicines listed in the recipe for the Heaven Yin Pill, but only enough for making one. However, there was one catalyst called the Extreme Yin Herb he didn’t recognize.
Thus, Qin Feng curiously asked Princess Huahua, "I don’t have the catalyst for the Heaven Yin Pill, the Extreme Yin Herb."
"You don’t have it? While I can’t say you have an abundance, to make a single Heaven Yin Pill, you definitely have enough."
"I have it?" Qin Feng looked at Princess Huahua curiously and asked, "What exactly is the Extreme Yin Herb?"
"The Extreme Yin Herb naturally grows in places of extreme yin, and as for such places, well, they are naturally found on a woman’s body! So, you know what I mean."
Princess Huahua said no more, and Qin Feng understood.
"You’re telling me to get it from Xue Xiaochan?"
"After all that you two have been through together, wouldn’t she give it to you?"
"Err...," Qin Feng shook his head and said, "That’s not the same thing at all. If I tell her I want that from her, won’t she call me a pervert?"
"Why would you tell her? Can’t you just take it quietly?"
"She would kill me."
"She wouldn’t kill you! But if your strength doesn’t rapidly increase, when those experts from the Southern Faction come after you, they really might kill you."
"Any Extreme Yin Herb will do, right? It doesn’t have to be freshly plucked, right?" Qin Feng asked.
"Any would do, though Xue Xiaochan’s would be best since she has the Heaven Yin Physique. Using another woman’s would work as a catalyst, but the resulting Heaven Yin Pill would be much less effective."
