Chapter 3975: Reprimand

ed money from my family for over three years now. If this money were put in the bank, there would at least be some interest."Ouyang Lan's expression faltered. She hadn't expected her own nephew to ask...With the passage of time, everything is progressing in an orderly manner.

After about half an hour, the medicinal herbs in the cauldron had been purified and tempered, slowly merging and entering the stage of pill formation.

By normal alchemy procedure, we would have almost finished half of the process by now.

A deathly silence fell over the crowd, their faces etched with shock.

A celestial alchemist of the eleventh rank, able to refine twelfth-rank elixirs with mere guidance from others, completely overturned everyone's understanding. If this wasn't happening right before their eyes, no one would believe it.

The middle-aged man, who had originally been beaming with pride, now saw his smile slowly turn stiff. Things seemed to be spiraling out of his control once again.

But the one who was most shocked and had the most complicated emotions was Grandmaster Dan himself.

As an eleventh-rank Immortal Alchemist and the actual controller of this alchemy session, she understood best the power of the man behind her.

Now she has completely abandoned her self-awareness, becoming a mere alchemy machine, doing whatever Ye Bufan tells her to.

This is why she could truly feel how terrifying the other party's alchemy skills were, every instruction was just right.

Every action is perfectly timed to achieve optimal results.

And he was calm and collected, that kind of serenity and proficiency seemed like he had done it countless times. Even I, who had seen many alchemists, had never witnessed such composure.

This made her heart even more doubtful. If the other party was a white-haired old man, it could be understood as a hidden master.

But the person is quite young, looking to be only in their twenties or thirties, much younger than himself.

Ironically, his proficiency in refining the San Bao Zhu Mai Dan far exceeded his own expectations, seeming unmatched. It was as if he had personally crafted it countless times before.

What on earth is going on Who exactly is he Could he be a twelfth-rank Immortal Pill Master already But why did he say he can't refine this type of pill

Is he hiding his strength Or is it that he hasn't actually reached the twelfth rank But how could someone who hasn't reached the twelfth rank guide me in alchemy

At this moment, her mind suddenly became a mess.

"What are you doing"

Ye Bufan's roar woke her, but it was too late.

Alchemy first requires powerful mental fortitude, and then intense concentration. There can be no slightest lapse in attention, but just now that distraction has caused the furnace to go out of control.

With a sound like a pop, the medicinal pill, which had almost been completely refined, turned into black ash that filled the air and spewed out of the alchemy furnace.

The previous batch of pills exploded because the yin and yang properties conflicted.

While the Three Treasures Meridian Nourishing Pill doesn't face this situation, the final result is a waste of an entire furnace of precious Immortal Spirit Herbs.

The onlookers were all taken aback. They had originally thought that the Grand Alchemist wouldn't take long to complete his task, but they hadn't expected this situation to occur.

The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment, then a smile played on his lips.

The alchemist's rule is that for three doses of pills per furnace, the payment is already included.

If the Grand Alchemist could refine three Treasure-Building Pills in one furnace, then the remaining two pills would belong to him.

And if all three batches of materials are completely ruined and no pills are produced, then compensation will be paid at the original price.

As long as the Great Alchemist ultimately fails to refine the elixir, I will incur no losses.

and the other party not only wants to compensate themselves, but also plants a demon in their heart and leaves a mark of failure.

The first attempt at alchemy failed, which only increased his confidence. He believed that the next two attempts would also be unsuccessful.

The Great General stood there, his cheeks flushed, a look of shame on his face.

This batch of pills was ruined, she naturally knew the reason, it was all because she lost her focus, committing a cardinal sin of an alchemist.

"I'm saying, what is this You're supposed to be an eleventh-order Immortal Alchemist, but you're useless! Wasting so many Immortal Herbs!"

A furious shout came from beside my ear, it was Ye Bufan's reprimand.

"You..."

The Great Dan Master's originally fair skin instantly turned a purplish-red, as if it could bleed at any moment. Shame mixed with anger in his expression.

She has been an object of countless people's admiration since childhood, not only for her high cultivation level but also for her exceptional talent in alchemy.

That's why I grew up surrounded by praise all my life. When have I ever been reprimanded like this before

Even the Master and the elders at home, who were always kind and gentle in their guidance, had never scolded him so harshly before. This was the first time Ye Bufan had seen such a display of anger.

For a moment, anger, resentment, and shame swirled together in my heart.

She wanted to explode, even wanting to slap the other person to death, but ultimately rationality prevailed. The other person was right, this time the fault was indeed hers.

But Ye Bufan didn't stop, continuing to scold: "As a Grand Alchemist, is this all you've got Was this how your master taught you You're utterly appalling!"

The Great Dane narrowed his eyes and said, "Nonsense! I was just momentarily distracted. It wasn't as bad as you say!"

In her opinion, she had performed fairly well just now. The only mistake was because she had been distracted.

"Daydreaming Is that all you are, daydreaming"

Ye Bufan said, "You clearly possess powerful spiritual energy, but just now you distributed it unevenly. Your control over three of the medicinal herbs was lacking..."

For an alchemist, this is the most fundamental technique. But your speed surpasses your smoothness. It's clear that your foundation isn't solid enough, and you lack precision in your movements...

The refining of the medicinal herbs, your mastery over the heat was far from satisfactory. The fire for dragon whiskers' essence was too long, while that for Xuanji grass was a hair's breadth short. This ultimately resulted in a deficiency in their potency.

Even if you just successfully refined this batch of pills, it's impossible to reach the superior grade...

Ye Bufan spoke incessantly, pointing out over a dozen errors in the other party's arguments.

The Great Master's eyes were first filled with anger, then shock, and finally shame.

What enraged her was the fact that the other party showed no regard for her face, and what shocked her was that every point they made was logical and hit the nail on the head, pointing out the real mistakes.

I didn't realize it before, and even some things that Master couldn't see.

In the end, I found myself having refined a batch of pills, and made so many mistakes, it was simply embarrassing.

She had always believed deep down that she was the only one of her generation, a unique genius, unmatched in the art of alchemy.

Only now did I realize how much I fell short compared to the man in front of me.

But this only made her more curious. Who was this person Why did they have such a deep understanding of Taoism What level of mastery would it take to achieve this

“I’m sorry… I’ll be more careful next time…”

After much emotional turmoil, the Grandmaster ultimately chose to submit, just like a child who had done something wrong.

After she said it, she couldn't quite believe it had come from her own mouth.

If other alchemists from the Celestial Realm saw this, they would surely drop their jaws. This woman, who has always looked down on others, is actually admitting her mistake

Ye Bufan completely ignored these words and said again, "If you know there's a mistake, just fix it. Start refining the second batch of pills immediately!"o discuss the other terms."Ye Bufan shook his head. "Never mind, I'm not interested in playing basketball."His aspiration is to be a good doctor and develop traditional Chinese medicine. How could he...
