Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 37 Confession

"That's right, I made it!"

Upon hearing the old doctor's surprised question, Xiao Bai remained calm and nodded in acknowledgment.

Xiao Xun'er's eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed. She had really succeeded! Her Xiao Bai brother was indeed as outstanding as ever!

She had wanted to ask earlier, but she was a little hesitant, afraid that if he hadn't succeeded, asking would be like reopening his wounds. Now she could finally relax.

Xiao Yan, seeing his teacher's surprised expression, was also somewhat shocked. He had asked his teacher and knew that for thousands of years, only those with fire and wood attributes could refine pills, without exception.

Brother Bai has truly pioneered a new path in the Dou Qi Continent. While I'm happy for him, I also feel a little embarrassed. I remembered feeling sorry for Brother Bai last time and comforted him by saying that I would consult him for alchemy in the future.

Now that Brother Bai has successfully refined pills, he is still in the Battle Power stage. Let alone refining pills, he can't even release the flames needed for refining pills.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan touched his nose, and even with his thick skin, he couldn't help but feel a little hot.

Seeing Xiao Bai's nonchalant demeanor, Yao Lao felt a slight tightness in his chest and harbored some doubts.

"Is this kid just showing off, or does he not realize how significant the impact of thunder magic alchemy is on the Dou Qi Continent?"

You should know this kid has a criminal record; even his apprentice occasionally complains to him about it.

"Sometimes when I see Brother Bai's calm and collected demeanor, I just want to go up and punch him to see how he reacts. If I weren't outmatched, I would have done it long ago!"

The old doctor shook his head, clearing his mind, and said seriously:

"Xiao Bai, do you know what kind of impact this lightning-based alchemy technique will have on the alchemy world if word gets out?"

"Let me tell you, countless fire and wood alchemists will want to kill you. Your lightning-based alchemy has already shaken their position on the continent. Of course, countless lightning cultivators will also frantically pursue you, or perhaps even try to kill you to obtain your inheritance!"

"Therefore, I won't ask you about this method. However, you'd better be careful in the future, and don't reveal it before you're strong enough!"

At this point, the old alchemist sighed. The moment he saw him answer yes, he had an urge to take action, let alone the other alchemists.

If it were anyone else, the old alchemist would definitely try to get rid of them, because they are also beneficiaries of the current alchemy system, and at the very top.

But this person is Xiao Bai, a young man he greatly admires. If the boy hadn't been unwilling, he would have really wanted to take him as a disciple.

Not only that, Xiao Bai is also the elder brother of this disciple. If he really does that, he might be betrayed again in the future.

Moreover, not to mention the girl next to him, even Xiao Bai himself is not entirely confident that he can handle it!

Recalling that seemingly harmless wisp of black-red lightning, Yao Lao shuddered; that tiny bit had put him into a two-month slumber.

If there were more, I'm afraid I'd be sleeping forever!

Xiao Bai remained unmoved by Yao Lao's words. Did he not know these things? He did know; he had already considered them long before plotting to make Yao Lao an eighth-grade alchemist.

Although once he succeeds, this method of alchemy will not be replicated by other thunder cultivators, it cannot overcome the two words.

People's hearts!

Those alchemists and thunder cultivators don't care whether your method can be replicated or not; they only want to believe what they see.

That's why Xiao Bai wanted to get his hands on the eighth-grade alchemist's inheritance from Yao Lao.

The goal is to solve the problem of inheritance once and for all, so as to avoid having to piece together a solution in the future and increase the risk of exposure.

With the alchemy inheritance from Elder Yao, he will hardly need to worry about this matter anymore.

As for being frank with Elder Yao about this issue today, firstly, I genuinely wanted to ask him about the elixir, and secondly, it was also a test of Elder Yao's abilities.

Among the few people in the courtyard today, Xiao Bai knew that he couldn't hide the fact that he had successfully refined the medicine.

Since we can't hide it anymore, we should expose it sooner rather than later and see what Yao Lao's attitude is.

In retrospect, the outcome was not bad; things didn't turn out as badly as he had feared.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will remember it!" Xiao Bai smiled and nodded to Yao Lao.

Upon hearing this, the old apothecary said no more. With Xiao Bai's intelligence, even if he hadn't thought of it before, now that he had been reminded, there shouldn't be any problems.

Turning to Xiao Yan, he instructed, "Don't talk about what happened with your brother Bai today, understand?"

Xiao Yan said solemnly, "Don't worry, Teacher! I will keep Bai Ge's matter a secret to myself and will never utter a word about it!"

The old doctor nodded. As for the little girl over there, he didn't need to tell her; she would be even more reluctant to let Xiao Bai get into trouble than they were.

Looking at the pill in his hand again, the old apothecary said to Xiao Bai with great surprise:

"This is the first time I've ever seen such a pill. It clearly lacks medicinal flavor, yet it contains the energy fluctuations of a fourth-grade pill. Calling it a first-grade pill would be an insult, but calling it a fourth-grade pill is clearly insufficient. It's truly amazing!"

"I don't care what grade it is, what matters is its function!"

At this point, Xiao Bai hesitated for a moment, glancing at the little girl beside him, finding it hard to say.

Xiao Xun'er was listening intently. Although she was not an alchemist, her knowledge of pills was second only to that of the old alchemist present.

She was very interested in the magical pills that her brother Xiao Bai had refined and wanted to learn more about them, but he didn't say anything and just stared at her, which puzzled her.

Seeing her confusion, Xiao Bai didn't speak, but gently patted her head and directly transmitted his voice to Yao Lao, recounting the scene of using the pill on the rabbit.

At first, Yao Lao was a little surprised that Xiao Bai was speaking normally when he suddenly used soul transmission. But after listening to Xiao Bai's story, he pondered for a moment, then winked at Xiao Bai in a teasing way and laughed.

"Haha, Xiao Bai, you're truly a genius! You managed to refine a perfectly good blood-clotting powder into something with such an effect!"

Xiao Yan, standing to the side, was completely bewildered. Bai Ge hadn't even finished speaking yet! The teacher seemed to understand what was going on.

Xiao Xun'er seemed to be deep in thought, giving Xiao Bai a strange look. Judging from his expression just now, was there something he couldn't let her know?

And that soul fluctuation just now, that must have been a soul transmission!

Judging from what the old man said, what kind of effects, what kind of effects, she couldn't possibly know?

And why does this old man's smile have such a lewd feel to it!

Then they saw Xiao Bai talking to that lewd old man through telepathy. The old man had a smile on his face, while Xiao Bai frowned at first, then seemed to suddenly realize something.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!" Xiao Bai bowed to Yao Lao.

"It's alright, it's alright. You just don't understand the properties and pharmacology of medicines well enough. Otherwise, you would have figured these things out yourself without me having to explain them, haha!"

The old man stroked his beard and smiled as he spoke to Xiao Bai.
