Chapter 147 - 133: Mastering Alchemy! Silent Spring Rain, Silent Murder Too!_2
Inside the room, flames blazed fiercely under a simple Pill Furnace. Jiang Shu placed medicinal herbs into the Pill Furnace with one hand, while the other pressed close to it, his True Strength circulating, constantly maintaining the fire at an optimal level.
Only half an hour had passed when a fragrance of elixirs permeated the air.
Wan Jingxing couldn’t help but clench his teeth in frustration.
Jiang Shu swallowed the Blood Strengthening Pill and sensed the changes brought about by its power. Murmuring to himself, his face showed an undeniable surge of delight.
"Let those outside keep watching. My son and I rarely go out anyway; there’s nothing to worry about. Don’t pay attention to them."
An image of that voluptuous figure flashed through Zuo Dechun’s mind, and a smile spread across his face.
Wan Jingxing watched his son, who was laughing heartily as he swung on the swing in the courtyard, an anxious fire burning inside him. His wife sat to one side. Seemingly aware of his emotions, she softly asked, "Have you not rested well lately? You’re finally home; just take a good rest and sleep a bit more. Back when you practiced Alchemy, you would always sleep for a long time to recover after refining a batch."
A month had passed. He still didn’t know if that young man would act. He had already done his utmost, telling him everything he knew. He had even secretly demonstrated Alchemy several times in his room. If the young man still couldn’t learn, it shouldn’t be his fault, right?
A thought flashed through his mind. Jiang Shu returned to Xuanxing to place the Pill Furnace properly. Once the cooling time had passed, he traveled back. He cultivated in secret for about ten hours, then, with an alloy broadsword on his back, he left the house.
"Rest assured, Senior, I’ve used these methods many times; they work like a charm. Women always find ways to convince themselves. As long as you don’t scare her off immediately, a gradual approach will make her succumb. Besides, Wan isn’t by her side, and she must be lonely, right?"
Having been under house arrest and surveillance for so long, Wan Jingxing’s wife had naturally noticed something amiss. However, her martial skills were inferior to her husband’s. Only through the continuous consumption of low-grade elixirs had she barely managed to reach the Skin Grinding Realm. Faced with the Qin Family’s surveillance, what could she do? Her best option was to go out less and stay at home more; that was where she felt most at ease.
He routinely searched the corpses and found some silver notes, which Jiang Shu tucked into his robes.
