The Eternal Saint of Alchemy
Chapter 1: From Pill Saint to纨绔 ?
"He ruined his dantian by sleeping with six women in one night? He gambled away his family's token at the casino? And he even failed to seduce the Yun family's daughter?"
"I've only been in seclusion for half a month, does this little beast want to utterly disgrace the Xiao family?!"
In the main hall of the Xiao family, the old master Xiao Zhankui slammed his hand on the rosewood table, making the teacups rattle.
The steward and several clan elders standing below dared not utter a sound.
"Speak up! Are you all mute?"
Xiao Zhankui's white beard trembled with rage: "Our Xiao family has been established in Donglin City for three hundred years, and we've never produced such a scoundrel!"
"Master, please calm your anger."
Second Uncle Xiao Yuanhe sighed: "The Yun family has already sent people over, demanding an explanation from us."
"Explain my ass!"
Xiao Zhankui slammed his fist on the table in anger: "That girl from the Yun family didn't lose a single hair, but this little beast had three ribs broken by their guards!"
At this point, Xiao Zhankui suddenly felt a sense of disappointment and frustration.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, but no one responded.
Although everyone disliked this young master, it was because his father, Xiao Yuanshan, was the next head of the Xiao family.
His talent was undeniable, but he died young. As his father, Xiao Zhankui, out of love for his grandson Xiao Fan, also doted on him.
But in the end, he developed a host of health problems.
After a long pause, Xiao Zhankui took a deep breath: "Where is that wretched creature now?"
"Reporting to Master, the eldest young master should be in the west courtyard."
Xiao Zhankui remained silent for a long time, then waved his hand: "You may all leave."
…………
In the west wing, in a room filled with the smell of medicine.
The moment Xiao Fan opened his eyes, his mind felt like it had been filled with a lump of paste.
It hurts! My whole body aches!
"Young Master! Young Master, you're awake!"
A round face came closer, its eyes narrowed into slits.
"I knew it! Young Master's 'golden spear' is invincible; how could he possibly be drained dry by those few young sluts!"
Xiao Fan was stunned.
What is that?
He remembered that he had just been refining the Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill in the alchemy room, and it was almost complete—
With a deafening roar, the tribulation lightning descended, and without further ado, he too was struck by the ensuing lightning.
"Young Master?"
The chubby face moved closer. "Don't scare me, Fan Jian is a coward."
Xiao Fan stared at that face for three seconds, and a flood of complex memories suddenly rushed into his mind.
Xiao Fan, the eldest son of the Xiao family, is the number one playboy in Donglin City. He is greedy, lustful, and incompetent. Three years ago, his dantian was inexplicably shattered, leaving him a cripple.
Last night, my predecessor ordered six girls at Qunfanglou in one go, and after a whole night of this, he passed out.
"Have I been reborn?"
How could a dignified Pill Saint be reborn into the body of a good-for-nothing?
"What did you say, young master?"
Fan Jian pressed his ear closer.
"fine."
Xiao Fan closed his eyes: "You go out first."
"Alright! Young master, please rest. I'll go and make you a bowl of ginseng soup to nourish you."
Fan Jian ran out excitedly.
Xiao Fan lay on the bed, carefully processing the memories of this body, but the more he looked, the colder he felt.
His dantian was shattered, his cultivation was completely ruined, and he was not even as good as a servant in the family.
If it weren't for the fact that the old man, Xiao Zhankui, still had some family ties, he would have been kicked out of the Xiao family long ago.
Just as he was feeling somewhat lost, he suddenly sensed something vibrating slightly deep within his consciousness.
His mind went blank.
boom!
An ancient bronze cauldron appeared in his mind's eye, its body covered with mysterious patterns, exuding a vast and ancient aura.
The Cauldron of Creation!
This was his natal alchemy cauldron that accompanied him throughout his past life in the world of alchemy, and it actually came with him across time!
Xiao Fan was overjoyed.
With this cauldron, he can use his sea of consciousness as a furnace and spiritual power as fire to refine all things in heaven and earth!
What does it matter if my dantian is shattered?
However, Xiao Fan's expression darkened again.
He searched through his memories and found that the absurd banquet was suspicious in every way.
Qunfanglou was owned by his cousin Xiao Ming, and the six girls were arranged by Xiao Ming. Even the drinks were personally delivered by Xiao Ming.
After drinking it, he remembered nothing. When he woke up again, his dantian was completely ruined.
"Xiao Ming?"
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes; this was going to torture him to death.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and Fan Jian came in carrying a bowl of ginseng soup, his fat face jiggling.
"Young Master, something terrible has happened!"
"What's wrong now?"
"The second young master has spread the word that you lost the family token to the casino, and he's already sent people to retrieve it. He also said..."
Fan Jian swallowed hard. "They also said you harassed the Yun family's daughter, and the Yun family wants you to come and kowtow to apologize within three days, or they'll break your legs!"
Xiao Fan sneered. It seemed that these people had already prepared for what would happen next.
If he hadn't transmigrated, his predecessor would probably have been killed by these people.
Then they can simply eliminate any evidence of the death, and because of the Yun family's affairs, they can kick the predecessor out of the Xiao family.
At that time, no one will speak for a dead man, and Xiao Ming, as Xiao Yuanhe's eldest son, will naturally become the family's first choice.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan looked at Fan Jian and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
But Xiao Fan's dazed expression appeared to Fan Jian as one of resignation.
"Young Master, we're really finished this time!"
"Alright! Stop acting like a woman, I'm not dead yet!"
Xiao Fan is very annoyed right now; his predecessor's body was indeed in terrible shape.
With his dantian completely destroyed and his meridians in disarray, he could barely get out of bed, let alone cultivate.
We must obtain the medicinal herbs as soon as possible and refine a batch of Nourishing Essence Pills to repair the foundation of this body.
But everyone in the Xiao family wishes he were dead, so who would give him medicine?
"Fan Jian, how much wealth have I accumulated over the years?"
"Well……"
Fan Jian scratched his head. "Young master, you gave all the silver notes to the girls at Qunfang Tower that night. Now we only have a few taels of silver left in our courtyard."
Three ounces isn't even enough to buy a single ginseng root.
It's ironic that someone who once stood at the pinnacle of alchemy is now worrying about a few medicinal herbs.
But just then, an old voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Young Master, Master asked me to take you to the East Courtyard."
Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Fan was somewhat surprised. In his memory, this person should be Uncle Yu, the personal butler of his grandfather from the previous life.
Its strength should be at the Profound Realm, but the exact level was never known to its predecessor due to the limitations of its dantian.
(Cultivation realms are divided into: Mortal Realm, Profound Realm, Spiritual Realm, Yin Realm, Yang Realm, Unity Realm, Tribulation Realm, and Celestial Realm)
…………
In the study, Xiao Zhankui sat in a grand chair.
He stared at his good-for-nothing grandson with a livid face.
Xiao Fan was helped in by Fan Jian. His face was as pale as paper, his steps were unsteady, and he looked like he was about to collapse at any moment.
"Look at the state you're in now!"
Xiao Zhankui launched into a tirade, "You've completely disgraced the Xiao family!"
Knowing he was in the wrong, Xiao Fan remained silent, waiting for the old man to reprimand him.
Just when he thought the other party was going to continue lecturing, Xiao Zhankui suddenly stood up and walked up to him.
"I've temporarily suppressed the situation with the Yun family, and I've also had someone redeem the casino token."
The old man stared into Xiao Fan's eyes: "But remember, this is the last time. If there's a next time, you'll be kicked out of the Xiao family and left to fend for yourself."
Xiao Fan's heart stirred slightly.
Its predecessor had caused a lot of trouble, but the old man in front of it always helped clean up its messes.
This time, it directly involved a family with a power no less than the Xiao family, but the old man still intervened.
This grandpa has a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
"Okay, Grandpa."
Seeing his appearance, Xiao Zhankui finally softened and sighed.
"Regarding your dantian issue, I invited Pharmacist Sun from Medicine King Valley to examine it, and he said there's still a glimmer of hope."
"A medicinal bath has been prepared in the backyard, made with 300-year-old blood ginseng and dragon bone grass. Take a bath in it, and even if it can't restore your dantian, it can at least help improve your injuries."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan's eyes lit up.
With the addition of blood ginseng and dragon bone grass, along with the Qiankun Creation Cauldron in his sea of consciousness, he was absolutely certain he could refine a batch of Nourishing Essence Pills!
This is my own grandfather!!
