Chapter 105: Chapter 87: Earning Spirit Stones from Alchemy Faster Than Robbery_1
The higher the grade of the alchemy furnace, the greater the enhancement to the alchemy process.
However, what Luo Changfeng hadn’t expected was
that this Yellow Grade lower-tier furnace would allow him to successfully refine the Body Tempering Elixir on his first try.
It was indeed quite unexpected!
“Perhaps it was just a bit of luck this time?”
With that thought in mind,
Luo Changfeng went on to refine elixirs ten more times.
However, the subsequent ten attempts weren’t as smooth as the first one.
Out of the ten, only two were successful.
In other words, with this Yellow Grade lower-tier alchemy furnace, his success rate for refining Body Tempering Elixirs had increased to one in five.
One in five, although not very high,
was at least passable.
…
Having become the Deputy Sect Master of the Wan Dan Sect’s Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect,
after enjoying so many privileges,
he naturally had to do something for the sub-sect at Luoshan Prefecture.
And as an alchemist,
all he had to do was refine more elixirs.
Then, distribute these elixirs to the people in Luoshan Prefecture to sell,
thereby enhancing the total elixir sales performance of the entire Luoshan Prefecture.
As the performance improved, the ranking of Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect within the Da Feng Dynasty would naturally rise gradually.
…
The next day, early morning.
The sky was still not completely bright,
and the air around still carried a hint of earthiness when
Luo Changfeng called for Luo Yong.
After giving one bottle of the Body Tempering Elixirs he had refined to Luo Yong,
he sent him away.
Since he had returned, there was no longer a need for Luo Yong to continue overseeing the clan.
And as Luo Yong returned to the barracks, and as time passed and the sun hung high in the sky above everyone’s heads,
Luo Changfeng summoned Luo Yao.
That would be the second son of Luo An, a member of the Luo Family who had previously hidden over a dozen wives and concubines outside the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
“Patriarch Changfeng…”
“You were looking for me?”
In the courtyard, Luo Yao saw Luo Changfeng, who was sitting under the Stone Pavilion with a book titled [Advanced Alchemy] taken from the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect.
He couldn’t help but slightly lower his head,
seemingly a bit fearful of his own mysteriously powerful patriarch.
“Luo Yao?”
Luo Changfeng slowly put down the book in his hand, glanced at Luo Yao beside him, and said with an exceedingly calm expression, “I hear you kept over a dozen wives and concubines in Qingshi Town?”
“I… I realize my mistake…”
Luo Yao felt as if he was on the verge of tears.
Because of this matter,
he had already been severely scolded by his father once.
Now, unexpectedly…
His own Patriarch Changfeng had sought him out again because of it.
“What mistake have you made?”
Seeing the frightened Luo Yao before him, Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but smile and shake his head, “For a clan to grow and prosper, not only must its top power be strong but the number of its members is equally important.”
“So, if you want to increase the clan’s population, such matters are unavoidable.”
“Here is a bottle of supreme-quality common Blood Replenishing Pills for you.”
“With that much indulgence, your body is bound to be somewhat weakened.”
“Though the Blood Replenishing Pills are for replenishing vitality, they should be somewhat beneficial for… that area as well.”
“Right, when taking these supreme-quality common Blood Replenishing Pills, remember to dilute them in water before drinking.”
“Otherwise, if something happens, don’t come to me for help.”
“As for the Body Tempering Elixir… I will not give it to you.”
“Taking it would result in experiencing one of the most excruciating pains known. ”
“With your disposition, you’re probably not suited to endure it.”
“Also, if you’re short on money, just ask your father for it.”
“If he refuses, tell him I sent you.”
“Now you may leave…”
…
After saying these words and stuffing a porcelain bottle with ten supreme-quality common Blood Replenishing Pills into Luo Yao’s hands,
Luo Changfeng no longer paid him any attention.
He simply went back to reading the book [Advanced Alchemy] that he held.
“Patriarch Changfeng…”
In the courtyard, Luo Yao, who had thought he was going to be scolded again,
couldn’t help but look teary-eyed at the venerable patriarch.
However, only moments later, he left the yard without further disturbing the patriarch immersed in his reading.
…
As Luo Yao turned around,
and gradually disappeared from the courtyard,
Luo Changfeng once again set aside the book titled [Advanced Alchemy].
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he calmly looked in the direction where Luo Yao had departed.
Whether it was Luo Chuan, Luo Qingshan, Luo Yang,
or that Luo Yao,
they were all quite talented individuals.
At the current stage, Luo Yao was the one Luo Changfeng fancied the most.
Determined to expand the family, he spared no effort to spread his seed far and wide.
He even kept over a dozen wives and concubines outside Qingshi Town.
This young man had potential, definite potential.
As for ordering the clan members to marry more wives and take more concubines,
Luo Changfeng had considered it.
But such matters were always somewhat unfeasible in practice.
Within the Luo Family Ancestral Land, each person’s character was different.
Not everyone was keen on the idea of marrying and consorting wildly.
Thus, with no alternative, he left things to run their course.
…
In the blink of an eye,
three days had passed.
In Qingshi Town, within the Luo Family Ancestral Land, and in the courtyard where Luo Changfeng was located,
there appeared a black-robed Viscera Refinement Realm cultivator.
