Chapter 78 I Really Don’t Take It Seriously
"I wonder which alchemy sect Su is from, and why did you travel here?" Sun Xuan asked cautiously. This was the only scenario he could imagine. There were several alchemy sects in the Yunyuan Empire. They might concentrate the power of the entire sect to train some key disciples to pass on the sect. They would often use some unknown means, and the disciples trained in this way might have unimaginable alchemy attainments.
However, Su Chen shook his head and denied Sun Xuan's guess: "I live in Qinghe City, and I am not a disciple of any alchemy sect."
"You mean you are a local of Qinghe City?" Sun Xuan was even more surprised, and he and Shi Tiexin looked at each other. Everyone knew that the alchemy path was different from the martial arts path, and it was the most in need of inheritance. If there was no teacher, it would be extremely difficult to get started in the alchemy path. This was why every city had an alchemy guild, in order to give those who did not have an alchemy background in their families the opportunity to become alchemists.
The most accomplished person in the Qinghe City Alchemy Guild is Master Mo, but from Master Mo's tone, Su Chen is obviously not his disciple, so where did Su Chen learn to make alchemy?
Between Sun Xuan and Shi Tiexin, Shi Tiexin has a hotter temper and said directly: "Brother Mo, I speak directly, don't blame me for being impolite. How can a Qinghe City kid who is still wet behind the ears be a master of alchemy? You must have been deceived by him."
As he said, Shi Tiexin stared at Su Chen: "Boy, who gave you the courage to run to the Alchemy Guild to deceive people? You are so brave and impatient to live!"
Su Chen had long disliked this person. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Did I deceive you? Do you still need to define people?"
"Friend Su Chen, don't be offended. Brother Shi said this because he had never seen you before. When he understands your level, he will not say that."
Master Mo hurriedly tried to smooth things over, and at the same time urged Sun Xuan: "Brother Sun, quickly take out the ancient recipe of Shenquan Pill that you obtained."
No matter what Shi Tiexin said now, as long as Su Chen could successfully complete the ancient recipe, even if it was just one or two of the herbs, Shi Tiexin would shut up.
"Uh--" Sun Xuan was a little hesitant. He spent a lot of money to buy this ancient recipe. Although it was an incomplete recipe, it was also a valuable treasure. At this moment, he was asked to take it out casually to show it to a stranger. It would be a lie to say that he didn't hesitate.
"Brother Sun, hurry up." Master Mo was still urging.
However, seeing Sun Xuan's expression, Master Mo understood a little: "Brother Sun, you don't believe me?"
"No, no." Sun Xuan hurriedly explained, "Brother Mo, you and I have been close friends for many years. The reason why I came to Qinghe City to visit you this time is to discuss this ancient pill recipe with you. How could I not believe you?"
"Then why are you hesitant and unwilling to take out the pill recipe?" Master Mo frowned.
Sun Xuan hesitated, not knowing whether to say that he did not believe Su Chen and did not want to take out the precious ancient pill recipe in front of Su Chen.
His hesitant expression fell into Master Mo's eyes, causing Master Mo to frown: "Brother Sun, it seems that you don't believe Su Xiaoyou."
"Su Xiaoyou was brought by me, and I can naturally guarantee what kind of character he is. What's more, if you want to complete this pill recipe today, you still need to rely on Su Xiaoyou. Even if you don't believe him, you have to believe me, right?" Master Mo was a little unhappy.
Sun Xuan was naturally willing to believe Master Mo, but it would be a lie to say that he had no hesitation about Su Chen. A young master of alchemy like Su Chen was completely beyond his cognition.
"Alas, Brother Sun, you really wasted my kindness and brought Su Xiaoyou to see you!" Master Mo was really angry. He stood up and waved his hand, "Come on, send him away! Ask him to leave!"
Sun Xuan couldn't believe it and said, "Brother Mo, you want to drive me away?"
"That's right!" Master Mo snorted heavily, "If you don't believe Su Xiaoyou, then you don't believe me. I think we should stop being friends. You should leave me immediately!"
"This..." Seeing his old friend's resolute expression and tone, Sun Xuan couldn't help but hesitate. He was thinking, why not just take out the recipe.
But at this moment, Shi Tiexin suddenly spoke up: "Brother Mo, there is no need to be angry. It is normal for Brother Sun to hesitate. Such a young master of alchemy, no one would believe it. If it were me, I would definitely not take out the ancient alchemy formula. What if he stole it and spread it out?"
Shi Tiexin's words were like adding fuel to the fire. Master Mo became even angrier: "Okay, since you two think so, let's go together! Come on, ask them both to leave!"
When Sun Xuan saw that Master Mo was really angry, he hurriedly said: "Brother Mo, don't be angry, can't I take out the alchemy formula?"
"It's too late." Master Mo snorted, "This ancient alchemy formula, you can slowly figure it out by yourselves. I'm sorry that my old man and Su Xiaoyou can't accompany you."
"Friend Su, I'm really sorry this time. If you want to blame someone, blame me." Master Mo turned to look at Su Chen with a guilty face. It was obvious that Su Chen came to help complete the recipe for his sake, but he was treated like this by Sun Xuan. At this moment, Master Mo was very ashamed in front of Su Chen. How could he have the face to ask Su Chen for help?
Su Chen looked at Master Mo's ashamed face, smiled slightly, and said: "It's okay, it's not your fault, how could I blame you."
As he said, Su Chen looked at Sun Xuan and Shi Tiexin indifferently: "A mere ancient recipe for Shenquan Pill is worthy of you treating it as a treasure? I really don't care about this kind of thing."
"Remember, the reason why I help you today is entirely for the sake of Mo Lao. Otherwise, for frogs in the well like you, I would feel that it's too much for me to even look at them. You should take your things back and hide them as treasures."
As he said, Su Chen tore a piece of paper from the table, splashed ink on the spot, and wrote on a piece of white paper.
At first, Master Mo, Sun Xuan and Shi Tiexin didn't know what Su Chen was writing, but as time went by, Sun Xuan's eyes widened and he couldn't help but shouting in surprise: "Aren't these the materials on the Shenquan Pill recipe?"
No wonder he was so surprised. What Su Chen wrote on the white paper was actually the materials on the Shenquan Pill ancient recipe in Sun Xuan's hand. Every material was completely matched!
For a moment, if Sun Xuan was not sure that the ancient recipe had always been with him and no one had touched it, he would almost doubt whether Su Chen had seen this ancient recipe.
Su Chen did not write out all the materials in the recipe in one breath, but only wrote more than half of them and stopped writing.
But even so, these materials were completely consistent with the ancient recipe, and there was no material that was not on the ancient recipe. This was enough to shock Sun Xuan. His eyes were as big as copper bells at this time, and he looked at Su Chen in surprise and suspicion.
