The old man and Su Xi looked at each other with smiles on their faces. After drinking his tea, Su Xi gave him a gift.
Then Fengjiu served tea to the two of them, and also received the gift prepared by Suxi.
After a few people chatted in the palace for a while, Feng Xiao left first because the heads of state of various countries were leaving today and he had to arrange for them to see him off.
Fengjiu stayed and talked for a while, then left as well, because after her grandfather's wedding, she planned to go to Taohuawu to practice in seclusion and wait for the enrollment day of the Six Star Academy.
"Brother and the others are going back today too, let's go see them off!" Su Xi said as she looked at the people around her, a happy smile on her face. After years of waiting, she finally got the result, so she was naturally filled with joy.
"Okay." Old Master Feng agreed and accompanied her to see her off.
Before the wedding, people from all walks of life came and it was very lively. After the wedding, everyone went back home. Even Guan Xilin followed the black market mercenary team out for training again...
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, three months have passed.
In Taohuawu, the old man sweeping the floor heard another furnace explosion and couldn't help but look up at the alchemy room. This was the 42nd furnace explosion this month. The people from the black market had been coming more frequently recently, all busy bringing her an alchemy furnace.
“Ahem.”
Fengjiu was dressed in black, and even her hair was burned by the flames from the exploded alchemy furnace. It curled up slightly and smelled burnt. Her face was gray and black, and her hair was messy, making her look very wolfish.
She ran out of the alchemy room while covering her mouth and nose, and came to the courtyard to take a deep breath, frowning tightly, and said to herself: "No! I have clearly controlled the ground fire very well, why did the furnace explode? What's wrong?"
"Could it be that the amount of Baikucao is too large?" Thinking of her, she ran into the alchemy room again, took out a new alchemy furnace from the space, and started a new experiment.
However, two hours later, another loud bang was heard. This time the alchemy furnace was not destroyed. Instead, a stream of air suddenly rushed out of the furnace, and with a loud bang, all the elixirs in the furnace were destroyed. It failed again.
"The furnace didn't explode this time, and it wasn't because of the large amount of 100-knot grass. So the only thing left is the incompatibility of the medicinal properties..."
She sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, all dressed in black, her brows furrowed in deep thought, her eyes full of determination. In the past three months, apart from refining potions and selling them on the black market, she has been studying the way of alchemy.
But she didn't expect that although she had refined the elixir that could trigger heavenly thunder, she couldn't refine the third-level longevity pill. She couldn't help but wonder if she was able to refine the pill just by luck
"I really don't believe it!" She looked determined and tried again.
Under the peach tree in the courtyard, the old man sat quietly, looking at the courtyard where the alchemy room was located. After two hours, when he no longer heard the sound of the furnace exploding in the courtyard, he slowly closed his eyes and sat quietly like an old monk in meditation.
It was not until another hour passed and he heard the woman's laughter in the yard that he opened his eyes, slowly stood up and turned to leave.
In the alchemy room, Fengjiu laughed loudly, happy that after failing dozens of times, she finally succeeded in refining the longevity elixir!
