Chapter 587: The Scene Was Worth The Watch
The master was rarely seen under normal circumstances. Only when Long Siye was there, he would show up to greet him personally and invite him into the secret chamber to discuss alchemy techniques together. As for others, they were all irrelevant in the eyes of the master. Even Gu Canmo had not always been able to invite him.
He had now, however, shown up in such a high profile. He had even engaged himself with the mysterious alchemist. The crowd felt that their trips were not in vain. It was totally worth the watch.
Qian Lingyu was very nervous deep down. He quickly sent his messages to Gu Xijiu to explain to her a brief account of the master’s life. He knew that it was time to test her real capability.
Gu Xijiu seemed at ease as she patiently arranged the herbs in good order. A few moments later, she picked out a particular herb and placed it in her palm, "This herb doesn’t smell right!"
"What’s wrong?" Jing Lanyao raised his brows.
"The herb is not the real Feng Tianhu. Instead, it is Yun Tianhu, a herb that closely resembled its appearance. The effect of the herb was the total opposite, so it was impossible to extract the Flying Crane Pill with it! Master Jing, are you trying to test my judgment or have you mistaken it for something else?"
The people turned their attention to Jing Lanyao, as they did not believe that he would make a mistake.
"Good judgment." Lan Jingyao groaned as he took back the Yun Tianhu and handed her the real Feng Tianhu. Apparently, he was indeed trying to test her.
Gu Xijiu smiled, and without making further comments, she began the alchemy.
