Cheng Qi looked at the red stone in his hand. Although this Earth Fire Stone could help him improve flame alchemy, it also consumed more spiritual power, and he failed to persist to the end every time.

“You are just looking for trouble for yourself; why do you have to learn so many boring things?” Tan Eyu saw that he was either going to the kitchen or meditating in the house all day long and she was almost suffocated just by watching him. Fortunately, now he had an extra pill furnace; she didn’t know how he could bear it.

“But I don’t feel bored. It’s very hard for the young master to refine medicinal pills alone.” Since the Alchemy Pavilion was opened, more and more people had bought medicinal pills. Cheng Qi noticed that Li Tianyan was busy every day to refine medicinal pills. There was less time for him to train and meditate. If he could learn alchemy by himself, he could help Li Tianyan.

Alchemy also had many benefits. After this period of practice, he had become more and more comfortable in controlling flames, and every time spiritual power was drained, it became more solid after restoration. The only downside was that it was a bit of a waste of medicinal materials because of failure.

“Young master, young master. What else do you have besides your young master?” Tan Eyu couldn’t help but roll her eyes to the sky.

“There is also Xiao Liu,” Cheng Qi replied without thinking.

“Hey, if this goes on, without Li Tianyan, let’s see what you become.” Tan Eyu couldn’t understand why she was contracted by this boy. If she wanted to have a master, they must be at least a powerful figure.

“But the young master is always here; it won’t be gone.” Cheng Qi blinked with confusion on his face, and Li Tianyan said that he would not abandon him in the future.

“Then let me ask you, if your young master is in danger or trapped, and you are left alone, what are you going to do?” Tan Eyu crossed her arms and continued to press.

Cheng Qi had never thought about this before, and he was speechless when he suddenly heard Tan Eyu asked this. However, thinking that if such a thing really happened, Cheng Qi suddenly felt a sense of fear in his heart.

“It’s really hard for you to answer. Look at me, although I am a woman, I have never relied on anyone. I built my own village and lived a free and easy life. There are also a bunch of young ladies under me. They will go down the mountain to rob if they want. Occasionally, I am in a good mood, just change my way to rob the rich and give it to the poor, and my life was so fulfilling,” Tan Eyu said persuasively.

Cheng Qi thought carefully and nodded in agreement, “You’re right; I can’t always rely on the young master for everything.”

“So, you decided to go out with me to build a village and do something big!” Tan Eyu immediately became energetic after hearing this.

“Hey, when did I say that I would build a village with you?” Cheng Qi was so confused by what she said he could hardly wrap his head around it.

Tan Eyu sat back unmotivated when she saw the trick was unsuccessful, “By the way, isn’t Li Tianyan your husband? Why do you always call him young master all day long, making you look like a worthless little follower.”

Actually, based on this kid’s current abilities, he was much better than many people of his age.

“Because I’m not good enough for the young master now; I’m very satisfied just being a little follower. If one day I can become a good match for him, then the young master may be willing to do it with me…” Cheng Qi said. He suddenly paused here and glanced at Tan Eyu shyly.

“Doing what? Why are you blushing?” Tan Eyu asked suspiciously without waiting for the next sentence.

“I won’t tell you anymore. I want to make a medicinal pill, so you are not allowed to speak.” Cheng Qi ordered Tan Eyu with a stern look and a heartbroken expression.

“Hey brat, didn’t we already agree? Why do you want to make a medicinal pill again?” Tan Eyu felt what she just said was in vain.

“What you said has nothing to do with alchemy. I only said that I didn’t want to rely on the young master for everything, and I didn’t say that I didn’t want to help the young master.” After Cheng Qi said that, he held the alchemy furnace and turned to the side.

Tan Eyu: “…”

After Cheng Qi recovered his spiritual power, he recalled the process of his failure and then took out a pair of medicinal materials and began to temper them. Li Tianyan, who was soaking in the medicine bucket and practicing, slowly opened his eyes and fell into meditation.

Li Family Villa.

“Tiancheng’s news has come. With the blessing of our ancestors, our Li family will finally shine. Hurry, prepare my carriage to drive back to Li Mansion.” Duan Qin smiled from ear to ear after hearing the news from Grandma Cai. The gloomy mood that came was instantly swept away.

“Old madam, the old master said that you can’t leave the villa within these six months.” Seeing the old madam was so happy, Grandma Cai couldn’t bear to pour cold water on her. However, the old master’s anger had not subsided after the birthday banquet, and now the old madam had to follow the old master’s punishment.

Duan Qin finally calmed down after a word from Grandma Cai, “Did Tiancheng’s letter say anything? What else does he lack? By the way, did the letter go to Hong Man? How did she react?”

“Young Master Tiancheng wants ten million taels of silver. Madam is now raising money everywhere. The eldest master asked her to go to the Hong family to get some money first, and she went, but now she is still short of more than half. Madam asked someone to ask the old madam to help find a way,” Grandma Cai also didn’t expect that after that incident, Madam Li could still act like a normal person and did her best for Young Master Tiancheng.

Duan Qin had a sarcastic smile on her face after hearing this, “She understands the current situation, between a Qi Condensation who joined Tianfan Immortal Sect and a loser, even if she knew the truth, she would still choose the former.”

“But old madam, I’m afraid it’s not easy to get together so much money.” Grandma Cai felt that the second young master wanted too much.

“I still have some savings in my hand, plus the income from the shop and the harvest from the fields in the past few years, the total should be more than one million taels. You can go to the warehouse and take out a dozen or so medicinal pills that are hundreds of years old. If we sell them off, we can raise more than one million taels, and Hong Man can ask the old master for the rest.” When Duan Qin talked about the medicinal pill, she thought of the 500-year-old Blood Ganoderma lucidum at the birthday banquet, and her heart began to hurt again.

“The old madam is really kind to the second young master. If the second young master finds out, he will definitely think of you.” Grandma Cai said with a smile.

“You reminded me, I have to write a letter to Tiancheng. When the money is collected, you can send it to Li Pei. He must hand it over to the messenger from Tianfan Immortal Sect.” Duan Qin thought about how this woman, Hong Man, had to be guarded upon, lest that woman took all the credit for raising so much money.

“Don’t worry, old madam, I will definitely explain clearly to the eldest master.” Grandma Cai also felt that the old madam’s worries were justified.
