Chapter 137: Your father asked you to be my wife
"Mr. Xiao, after refining the Fire Bodhisattva Pill this time, I hope to have a sparring match with you."Tang Huoer looked at Xiao Li with bright eyes, with some anticipation.
Xiao Li was stunned for a moment and saw the eagerness in her eyes.
This is still a competitive character...
Just now in front of Tang Zhen, Tang Huoer behaved like a good girl, and Xiao Li thought she was really a good girl.
"What do you want to compete with me?" Xiao Li asked with a smile. He was also quite interested in her.
Although Tang Huo'er is the eldest daughter of Fenyan Valley, she does not have the airs of an eldest daughter.
She is also beautiful. Although her looks are not as good as those of Medusa and the others, she also has a unique temperament.
She was quite heroic and Xiao Li had a good impression of her.
"Of course it's a martial arts competition. Am I going to compete with you in alchemy?"
"I have never met a genius like you, and I really want to compete with you." Tang Huoer is now eager to try.
Xiao Li smiled helplessly and said, "Let's wait until your injury is healed. The fire poison in your body is so deep that it is not suitable to take action before it is completely eliminated."
"How do you know there is fire poison in my body?" Tang Huoer was a little surprised.
Tang Zhen asked someone to refine the Fire Bodhisattva Pill in order to suppress the fire poison in her body.
But Tang Zhen never told this matter to outsiders, and even in Fenyan Valley, not many people knew that Tang Huoer was infected with fire poison.
How did Xiao Li figure that out?
"I am very sensitive to strange fire. The fire poison in your body should be left by the inherited strange fire of your Burning Flame Valley - the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire. It's a pity that you failed to subdue the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire, and instead caused yourself to be poisoned by the fire."
"No wonder Valley Master Tang was willing to pay such a high price to invite me here." Xiao Li said.
Tang Huoer was touched and asked in a low voice: "What conditions did my father... set for you?"
Xiao Li suddenly wanted to tease her, and said with a wicked smile: "Your father said that if I help to refine the Fire Bodhisattva Pill to expel the fire poison in your body, he will betroth you to me as my wife."
Tang Huoer was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, her pretty face flushed instantly: "No, it's impossible, my father didn't even ask me..."
"It's my parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. There's no need to ask you about this kind of thing." Xiao Li continued to tease.
The expression on the girl's face changed several times, showing anger, confusion, and grievance.
"I don't believe it. I want to go find my father!"
As she was about to leave, Xiao Li was so frightened that he quickly grabbed her.
"I'm just kidding, Miss Huo'er, why are you so easily amused?"
If Tang Huoer really went to find Tang Zhen, it would be a big misunderstanding.
"Kidding?"
"Yes, I just thought Miss Huo'er was so beautiful and wanted to tease you."
"You... hum!"
Tang Huoer snorted and shook off Xiao Li's hand.
"Mr. Xiao, take a good rest. After you finish refining the Fire Bodhisattva Pill, remember to stay and learn from me. You cannot refuse. This is the price you pay for teasing me just now!"
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Looking at Tang Huoer's departing back, Xiao Li found her quite interesting.
……
Rest in Burning Flame Valley for one night.
The next day, everyone gathered in the square.
"Master Huan, Master Xiao, are you ready?"
The two nodded.
"The Fire Bodhisattva Pill we are going to refine this time is a seventh-grade high-level pill. It requires a huge variety of medicinal materials, so we need to work together."
"So you two just need to follow the instructions on the prescription and do your respective duties."
Tang Zhen handed the two scrolls to Xiao Li and Master Huan. The two took the scrolls, used their soul power to check the contents, and remembered the steps clearly.
Then the elixir refining officially began.
Tang Zhen took out a huge medicine cauldron from his storage ring and placed it on the stone platform in the center of the square. Its heavy weight surprised Xiao Li.
"It's actually the Mountain Melting Cauldron. I didn't expect that this treasure on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking would be collected by Valley Master Tang." Master Huan showed envy in his eyes.
"Hahaha, it's just luck." Tang Zhen laughed.
Afterwards, the three of them officially began to refine the elixir.
Tang Zhen used the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire as the main energy, which was burning fiercely in the Mountain Melting Cauldron.
The unique pressure of the strange fire requires Master Huan to remain vigilant during the process of refining medicine.
But for Xiao Li, who possesses many kinds of strange fire, although the Nine Dragon Thunder Fire is strong, it will not affect him.
The medicine refining began to proceed as planned.
But extracting medicinal materials itself is a very time-consuming task.
It took the three of them seven full days to refine all the herbs into essence.
"You two, I'll leave it to you from now on." Tang Zhen said in a deep voice.
Although he possessed the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire, he was not a real alchemist after all, so he could not help with the following steps.
Hearing this, Xiao Li and Master Huan both nodded and took over the responsibility.
The next step is to fuse all these essences together and condense them into real elixir!
During this process, Xiao Li felt okay and the pressure was not too great.
Although he seldom refines elixirs of the seventh-grade high-level level, after all, he has a heavenly realm soul here, so the pressure is not great.
Master Huan was a bit exhausted, and had to take a lot of energy-recovering pills to hold on.
The two held on for a few more days before finally reaching the final stage of fusion.
The two liquids began to slowly merge in the mountain-melting cauldron.
But at the moment when the medicinal liquid was fused, an extremely powerful energy wave suddenly burst out and hit Xiao Li and Master Huan hard.
Fortunately, Xiao Li resolved the impact immediately.
But Master Huan's situation was different. He was already struggling to hold on when he was suddenly hit hard. He vomited blood and fell to the ground.
The sudden change made Tang Zhen and Tang Huoer's faces change instantly.
"not good!"
If something goes wrong with the pharmacist during the medicine refining process, it means failure!
Tang Huoer's pretty face suddenly turned pale.
Although she appeared to be very optimistic, she actually knew how bad the condition inside her body was. Without the Fire Bodhisattva Pill, she would not be able to survive for more than two months.
Now, the refining of the Fire Bodhisattva Pill has failed.
Is this really her fate?
Looking at the fallen Master Huan, Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, and then decisively exerted his powerful soul power to wrap the two balls of medicine liquid in the medicine cauldron.
"Master Tang, take Master Huan away and don't let him interfere with my final elixir melting."
Tang Zhen was stunned for a moment, with astonishment on his face: "Mr. Xiao, can you refine this Fire Bodhisattva Pill by yourself?"
"I don't know. I haven't refined a high-level seventh-grade elixir on my own, but I can give it a try."
Because he seldom made pills, he had the skills to make pills and a heavenly soul, but was too lazy to make pills.
However, reaching the advanced seventh rank shouldn't be a difficult task.
Tang Zhen came to his senses and immediately helped the injured Master Huan down.
Tang Huoer looked at the figure on the stage and clenched her hands in front of her chest.
"Must succeed..."
