574 – New Plans; Fooled (3)

“Oh? You have many formulas on pills?” Cheng Xiao Xiao was genuinely surprised. She was ecstatic and said, “Little Yuteng, if possible, let’s make our own pills and give them out to our disciples. Little Yuteng, it looks like we’d need to prepare ourselves as we will be recruiting disciples soon. Pills are good resources as well. And we have so much herbs stored up already. Providing pills to our disciples will be even better than providing them with herbs. Plus, none of the efficacy would go to waste, wouldn’t you say?”

“You are right, Young Mistress. You let me know how you want to move forward with this. Young Mistress, I have plenty of formulas. A lot of them don’t even exist here. But you are right in that it’s more the standard and better to provide our disciples with pills than herbs. We don’t have that currently and that’s something that you will need to figure out.”

“Oh? What are our major hurdles right now?”

“As I have just said. First, we will need a furnace to make the pills in. This is very important. Next is, we will need a source for fire, preferably a high quality one. The source of the fire will greatly impact the outcome of the process.”

“Okay, I see. It seems those over at Valley of the Alchemists are the only ones who know how to concoct pills on this continent. It’d appear that I’d need to make a tirp there.”

“Exactly. We will only be able to concoct our own pills if we have these two items.”

These were no ordinary items. Either way she looked at it, she’d need to go ask for help. Cheng Xiao Xiao thought to herself as she walked.

“Xiao Xiao.”

After she had returned to Yuteng Pavilion, Cheng Xiao Xiao ran into Mo Xuanzun who didn’t show up earlier. Seeing that he had just walked out from her quarters, she couldn’t help but asked, “Abacus? What you are doing here? Are you looking for me?”

“Yes, I am looking for you. Let’s go look for Ancient Forefather.” Mo Xuanzun smiled, held her hand, and started leading her away from Yuteng Pavilion.

“You have something up your sleeves…”

Cheng Xiao Xiao gave him a look but didn’t dwell on that too much. Walking side-by-side with him, she asked, “Say, have you heard about what happened at Yan?”

“Yeah. I didn’t go to the living room earlier, but I have heard it from Elder Zhengzong. Those from the City of Heitu had targeted the Luo’s and we could be their next target, right?” A cold light flashed past Mo Xuanzun’s eyes; he knew the content of their conversation quite well.

“Yes, mainly that we have no idea what kind of poison was given to Old Man Luo or whether Little Yuteng would be able to detoxify him. One way or another, we can’t not help him.”

“Little Yuteng will figure something out.”

The two of them quickly arrived at the Temple of Divine Plans Ancient Forefather’s place. When they arrived, the Ancient Forefather seemed to already be waiting for them.

“Ancient Forefather,” Mo Xuanzun called out to him respectfully.

There was a bright smile on Cheng Xiao Xiao’s face as she curtsied the man sitting in the chair, “Ancient Forefather.”

“Have a seat,” said the Temple of Divine Plans Ancient Forefather as he nodded. “Have you gone surveilling with your grandmother again?”

“Yes. Grandma wanted to go surveilling once a day and insists on seeing the progress with her own eyes. She worries that the rest aren’t doing a good enough job.”

Speaking of her grandmother, Cheng Xiao Xiao’s heart was filled with happiness and appreciation. Her grandmother was not only extraordinary and was able to proposed many suggestions not thought of by others, more importantly, these suggestions had also greatly improved Sacred Land Zhongyuan.

Even Temple of Divine Plans Ancient Forefather must say that Sacred Land Zhongyuan would one up Temple of Divine Plans in the future.

“You do have an incredible grandmother,” said Temple of Divine Plans Ancient Forefather with a smile.

“Of course!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao as she gave the Ancient Forefather a wink. “Not only do I have an awesome grandmother, I also have an awesome Ancient Forefather. Ancient Forefather only stay here to watch over me. I am well aware of that!”

“Oh, you child.” The Ancient Forefather was in a very good mood. Smiling, he looked at her and asked, “Those from the City of Heitu have shown up, haven’t they?”
