"Once the herbs are ready, I will start." Leisurely Cloud said. "Master of the House, do you still want to wait"
"No need to," Luo Yunqing shook his head; he was concerned about this matter but didn’t have to stand by and wait. He had other things to take care of as well.
"Then hurry up. My speed might be fast, after this alchemy session, I don’t know when I will continue with it." Leisurely Cloud replied; he did not plan to keep assisting the Luo family in making pills indefinitely and would stop once a certain amount had been made.
He didn’t want being tied up by the task of alchemy. If he was going to alchemize daily, he wouldn’t even begin this matter.
In this way, Leisurely Cloud began his short-lived career in alchemy. One person controlling eight medicinal cauldrons; with careful arrangement, it could just use the eight cauldrons, which was Leisurely Cloud’s limit, and any more than that would be beyond him.
And this was mainly because Leisurely Cloud was only making one kind of pill at a time. Otherwise, three might have been his maximum.
The others initially thought Leisurely Cloud had arranged so many cauldrons for rotation usage and not simultaneous use, which they considered impossible, as alchemy also required some techniques to control the temperature of the medicinal cauldron and air flow.
These methods were very complex, especially when making high-grade pills. Any slip could result in a ruined pill.
In the afternoon, Luo Yunqing came again, but not to check on Leisurely Cloud's progress; he accompanied someone here, seemingly the noble who needed Leisurely Cloud’s examination.
After informing Leisurely Cloud, he waited right there and talked with that patient while not mentioning anything about Leisurely Cloud making pills. Not only outsiders, even those guarding Leisurely Cloud didn’t know what kind of pill Leisurely Cloud was making.
Luo Yunqing did not divulge this information, thinking it better to keep it a secret. Leisurely Cloud just needed to give the finished pills to Luo Yunqing; how he explained their origin would be his own business, and he wouldn’t say they were made by Leisurely Cloud.
Others might guess, but let them!
Luo Yunqing quickly felt that others could never guess…
"So the injury isn't a major problem!" After seeing that nobleman, Leisurely Cloud said one sentence, yet it did not seem to make him happy.
"Please take a careful look; this is an old wound. With additional injuries and due to lack of timely treatment outside, it’s become very serious. I’m being treated daily by divine farmer true energy, but only alleviating the pain," said the nobleman. He didn’t believe Leisurely Cloud because what he said was too simple compared to his complicated injury.
"I know; if someone hadn’t been treating you with divine farmer true energy, you would have died in agony." Leisurely Cloud nodded and said.
"Then why do you say it’s not a major problem" the nobleman asked somewhat disdainfully.
"This isn’t a major problem. There are bigger problems than yours," Leisurely Cloud frowned slightly. "If you don’t believe me, then leave!"
Leisurely Cloud would never beg others to let him treat them; he was kind enough to help for free but expected mutual respect and trust in return. For such situations, he didn't care who the person was.
"Xiaoyao, don’t misunderstand! His Royal Highness just doesn’t know your medical skills, which is normal. Your Royal Highness, my nephew not only has profound realms in the Divine Farmer Technique but also extraordinary medical expertise; combined, his injury isn't a big problem," Luo Yunqing said from one side, embarrassedly acknowledging that despite his usually mild manner, this young man wasn’t afraid of anyone.
Luo Yunqing had come to understand Leisurely Cloud’s temperament: he was very polite and respectful towards everyone but would withdraw such courtesies if provoked. Simply put, he didn't care who you were; he only cared whether your character warranted his politeness.
"I’m sorry; I was too excited before and said inappropriate things," the nobleman quickly realized the situation and apologized. Honestly, although he was a member of nobility and a prince, compared to the head of the Luo family, their statuses were worlds apart—the Luo family was a dominant force in Flowstone Nation.
Only because he offered benefits did the head of the Luo family agree to help; also, didn’t everyone say they came due to this legendary youth doctor’s name Why doubt him
The earlier doubts were only because it seemed too miraculous!
"There is no problem in curing you, but that means treating you like an ordinary person. But what about your martial arts…" Leisurely Cloud paused and looked at the prince.
"Can’t they be used I was prepared for this already; all I wish now is to live a normal life without pain," said the prince bitterly, as if he had considered it many times before but misunderstood Leisurely Cloud's intent.
"No, wanting to recover your energy and continue cultivation isn't a problem. It's just that this would be slightly more complicated. If you choose to become an ordinary person, we can finish the matter today," Xian Yao said calmly.
"What! You mean I could still return to my previous state and continue with cultivation" The prince immediately became excited as he grabbed onto Xian Yao. He had already given up hope but now realized there was a chance after all.
Xian Yao nodded and replied, "Yes, it's just that this is slightly more troublesome and requires you to gather certain materials. You'll need to煉製洗髓丹。服下後，你的身體會逐漸恢複，最好讓彆人用神農真氣輔助你恢複。"
"Alright, alright! Tell me what materials are needed, I will do everything in my power to find them, no matter the cost!" The prince said excitedly.
"Washing Marrow Pill Wait a moment, Xian Yao, you're talking about Washing Marrow Pills, can you actually refine these pills" Lord Luo also became excited. Of course, he wasn’t as agitated as the prince; it was just that he had thought of something else.
"Yes, what's wrong This isn't too difficult, but the materials are troublesome," Xian Yao replied. The refinement of Washing Marrow Pills wasn't a problem for him, although obtaining the necessary materials would be very troublesome.
"Can you refine some for me" Luo Qingyun looked at Xian Yao with great anticipation.
"Of course, as long as your materials are sufficient," Xian Yao nodded.
"Sufficient, I've prepared the materials. However, nobody knows how to refine Washing Marrow Pills and I never expected you to know." Luo Qingyun said excitedly.
The value of a Washing Marrow Pill could be far higher than other medicinal pills since it allowed one to wash their marrow and pluck their hair, directly enhancing someone's cultivation talent. It was the only medicinal pill capable of improving one’s talent for cultivation.
However, the refining techniques for Washing Marrow Pills had long been lost, no one researching them because obtaining the materials was too difficult. Luo Qingyun couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised to learn that Xian Yao knew how to do it.
"Why should this be strange Refining a Washing Marrow Pill is much simpler than refining an Essence Cultivation Pill; would you expect me not to know" Xian Yao asked.
"But the specific formula and refining techniques for Washing Marrow Pills have been lost. How did you learn about it," Luo Qingyun asked somewhat confusedly.
"I saw them in a book. Actually, this isn't very useful since its loss is normal. The materials needed to make a Washing Marrow Pill are too troublesome; at least three of the ingredients are extremely rare, and there might not be any materials available for refining it for hundreds of years," Xian Yao answered casually.
"..."
In a book Which book
Luo Qingyun didn't ask. He was too lazy to care as long as Xian Yao knew how to refine them; such materials were probably only used once.
As Xian Yao said, the materials required for refining Washing Marrow Pills were extremely rare, not just one but many of them were very hard to come by. Three of them were almost impossible to obtain.
Luo Qingyun's materials had been collected by the Luo family over a long period of time; if it hadn't been for the loss of the formula for Washing Marrow Pills, they might not have managed to gather any at all.
"Then you just said that this was only slightly more troublesome" The prince asked in sweat. Under these circumstances, how could he collect such materials
"Your case is different; as long as you can find the materials available, it's okay even if some are missing. I can help refine a subpar Washing Marrow Pill for you which won't significantly enhance your talent but will cure your condition," Xian Yao replied.
"Oh, I see. Then now that Lord Luo has the materials, could I borrow some" The prince asked.
"Sorry Prince, these are needed by me. If there's any surplus material left over after my use and it’s useful to you, then yes, I can lend them to you," said Luo Qingyun politely.
"Lord Luo is being too cautious; I only need a subpar one, not the complete Washing Marrow Pill," The prince immediately clarified his intentions.
"If you manage to gather all the materials needed, Xian Yao will help refine them for you. However, this favor needs to be repaid."
"Absolutely!" The prince said promptly.
"Alright, let's not talk anymore. Sit down and I'll start the treatment," Xian Yao didn't want to waste any more time; he had little remaining time.
"Okay!" The prince immediately sat down. Xian Yao then proceeded with acupuncture and used Shen Nong True Energy to heal his injuries. As time passed, the process was completed!
(To be continued)t person."You're right, I am one who has some knowledge of the four arts. I'll admit it," Xianyao nodded."Calling yourself proficient with just 'some' is an understatement; everyone would be beginners...
