Fantasy: I Can Instantly Comprehend Everything

I Can’t Keep a Low Profile Even If I Wanted to

After Ji Ha informed Qin Xiu, he turned to look at Zhou Yun in the alchemy room.

The corners of his mouth curled into a mocking smile again.

The strength that Zhou Yun displayed earlier had indeed shocked him.

In fact, he had to admit that Zhou Yun’s strength was no longer below his own.

However, he felt relieved after finding out that Zhou Yun had obtained a fortuitous encounter.

A person who relied on a fortuitous encounter to barely be on par with him was not worth his time.

Now, Zhou Yun was actually delusional about refining pills?

Wouldn’t that be too far fetched?

In terms of alchemy, Ji Ha also had some talent.

He had even become an apprentice in the Alchemy Pavilion.

Although he was not yet inducted as an official alchemist, his talent was recognized by his teacher.

No matter how talented apprentices were in alchemy, they still needed a mentor’s guidance and experience.

Every alchemist was respected on the continent.

The reason for this was because alchemists were extremely rare.

Their training was extremely difficult.

Every alchemist was carefully selected.

After that, it required astronomical amounts of medicinal herbs to bring up an alchemist.

All forces would spare no expense to rope in any alchemist.

Their identities and statuses were extremely prominent!

Now, Zhou Yun had no one to rely on and no one to teach him. Even so, he actually wanted to refine pills by himself. If this wasn’t wishful thinking, what was?

Ji Ha acknowledged Zhou Yun’s strength, but certainly not his talent in alchemy.

A mocking smile appeared on Ji Ha’s face.

Not everyone could refine pills.

Ji Ha walked into the alchemy room and looked at Zhou Yun who was busy arranging the herbs he was about to use.

“Yo, weren’t you cultivating? Why did you change to pill refining?”

He continued, “Old classmate, pill refining and cultivation are completely different fields of study. Do you have any knowledge in this area?”

“Although I have yet to be inducted as an official alchemist, I’ve already mastered most of my teacher’s teachings. Do you want me to teach you?”

Ji Ha looked at the diligent Zhou Yun and sneered.

However, after he mocked Zhou Yun, he noticed that Zhou Yun did not pay any attention to him and was occupied with his own matters.

The latter didn’t even look at him.

He didn’t even lift his eyelids.

It was as if he did not see Ji Ha.

It was obvious that he didn’t take him seriously at all.

This provoked Ji Ha’s anger again.

Just as Ji Ha was about to speak again, he suddenly saw that there were only three sets of herbs for Qi Refining Pills on the desk of the alchemy room.

He also saw the timer in the room showing a day’s rental time.

He couldn’t help but let out a strange laugh and immediately said, “Alchemy isn’t something that a poor man can dabble in!”

“You dare to come here with only two spiritual stones to spend? If you don’t have money, then don’t act like you are rich!”

“You’re a newbie who knows nothing, yet you’re attempting to produce three pills using these three sets of herbs. Is this a joke to you?”

“Which alchemist doesn’t fail hundreds or even thousands of times before they succeed?”

“Why don’t you listen to me and use two spiritual stones to buy some Qi Refining Pills? They will be enough for you to cultivate for a while!”

“Hurry up and leave. This isn’t a place for a poor man like you to play in!”

Ji Ha’s taunting had successfully attracted the attention of the people around him.

They all looked over towards the room.

When they heard that Zhou Yun wanted to use three sets of herbs to make Qi Refining Pills, they all laughed so hard that their sides ached.

This was especially funny since Zhou Yun was still a newbie and had never come in contact with alchemy before.

Someone mocked, “Haha, I’m dying of laughter. You want to refine pills with just two spiritual stones? Do you think we’re cooking?”

“Zhou Yun? Wasn’t he the lowest ranking outer sect disciple? Is he trying to find another way to stay in the sect since he knows that he can’t pass the outer sect disciple assessment?”

Some of the more observant disciples recognized Zhou Yun and shook their heads. They thought that Zhou Yun was afraid of being expelled as the assessment was approaching. If he managed to make it as an alchemist, he would not need to take the assessment.

“This guy isn’t here to learn alchemy. He’s clearly here to gamble!”

“Is he gambling on switching careers from an outer sect disciple to an alchemist?”

“The problem is that you need capital to gamble,” a tall man with curly hair stated.

“Do the two spiritual stones he has count as capital?” said a little dark fatty.

“Do you think they count?” the tall man said.

“Uh...those...should...be...counted?” the little dark fatty stammered, not daring to reply.

The conversation between the two was like a crosstalk, causing everyone to burst into laughter until their sides hurt.

In the face of everyone’s ridicule, Zhou Yun’s face remained calm.

He was busy with his own matters.

He ignored everyone’s teasing.

“Who said that Brother Zhou Yun doesn’t have money?”

A crisp female voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.

When the voice rang out, everyone immediately stopped laughing and turned towards the voice.

“This voice! Could it be...”

“No way! Why would she come here?”

Under everyone’s gaze, a cute girl skipped into the room.

She was wearing a light red dress. Her skin was as smooth as jade and as white as snow.

A white silk ribbon was tied around her waist, perfectly showing off her slender waist.

Her long black hair was casually draping over her shoulders, fluttering in the wind.

She was holding the arm of another dignified woman.

This woman was dressed in white. Her skin was as white as snow and her eyes were as clear as water. When she looked around, she had an elegant and noble temperament.

The two girls walked into the alchemy room hand in hand.

Everyone recognized the two of them at a glance.

They were both inner sect disciples of Spirit Valley.

The cute and playful girl was called Qiao’er, a new genius who emerged over the past three years.

“She is so beautiful!”

“Too beautiful! She looks ethereal.”

As soon as the two women entered, they immediately caused a commotion in the alchemy room.

Everyone present looked at them with infatuation.

Their gazes were all drawn to them right now.

The crowd stood there like stunned statues.

Everyone was too distracted from refining pills with the presence of the two women.

“Who are these two goddesses?”

An outer sect disciple who was unaware of the situation looked at the two girls who had just entered and asked in confusion.

An inner sect disciple heard the man’s doubts and introduced the two goddesses to him while staring at them intently.

“These two are inner sect disciples of our sect. Do you see that cute goddess in light red? She’s a new genius who’s been promoted in the last three years. I heard that she broke through the first layer of Qi cultivation to the foundation establishment stage in less than three years. She’s even reached the intermediate of foundation establishment stage!”

“And this woman in white is Senior Sister Su Wanyi, one of the inner disciples of our sect.”

“She is also the gentlest and best senior sister in our sect. No one can replace her!”

When the two women walked in, for a moment, everyone was silent and dared not speak.

They respected Su Wanyi from the bottom of their hearts.

“Brother Zhou Yun!” Qiao’er let go of Su Wanyi’s hand and skipped over to Zhou Yun’s side, calling his name sweetly.

Zhou Yun looked at the pretty Qiao’er and felt helpless.

Now that she was here, he couldn’t keep a low profile even if he wanted to!
