Genius Demon Empress - Chapter 24

Chapter 24 - Precious Jade Pill

Translated by Luxican

In the Pill Room, Yue Jing Hua used the herbs obtained from the Tai Chang to make a few more Precious Jade Pills. This time, the success rate of the pill was much higher, and every two stoves could produce ten pills.

After refining about three bottles of medicine, Yue Jing Hua stopped.

She had to set out early for the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy this morning. In the short time left, she did not want to refine the Precious Jade Pills anymore.

First, the usefulness of the pill was severely limited and second reason for refining wouldn't be available for a few days. Secondly, she intended to concentrate her energy on reforming the Falling Star Iron.

"Miss," Hong Ling's voice came from outside.

"Come in," Yue Ling Hua recovered the Lotus Flame from the Pill Furnace.

As Hong Ling opened the door, she could only feel a wave of heat wash over her.

How could it be so hot in the Pill Refinement Room? Even with the Profound Human Realm cultivation of Hong Ling it felt like the scorching summer heat, and this was only the residual heat of the Chaotic Green Lotus Flame.

Hong Ling looked at Yue Jing Hua, but she looked like usual, as if the heat in the room was just her illusion.

Miss, was it true that Miss had been hiding her power in the past years? An amazing thought was instantly formed in Hong Ling's mind.

She remembered last night, and Hong Ling felt that had to be the truth.

Hong Ling's heart firmly believed this.

In the Pill Room, a strong medical scent floated in the room, and Hong Ling asked: "Miss, you are in the Pill Room all night, are practicing Alchemy?"

"Just practicing a few stoves," Yue Jing Hua replied casually.

Could you make mystic pills just by practicing them? There was a wonderful expression on Hong Ling's pretty face.

"You've come at the right time, try this mystic pill for me," Yue Jing Hua threw a red mystic pill to Hong Ling.

Hong Ling's face was a bit stiff. Could this elixir, which was only practice item, really be eaten?

After gritting her teeth, Hong Ling closed her eyes and swallowed the mystic pill. The changes in her Dantian made Hong Ling react immediately, she sat down on the floor, crossed her legs and began circling her Profound Qi.

The young lady's voice hovered in her ears:" Hong Ling, I will go enroll in the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy today, and I will leave you in charge of the Ming Xiang Courtyard. This elixir can improve your Profound Qi, I will give you one year to break through to Profound Earth Realm. After that, my mother will free you of your servant identity, then it's up to you if you want to stay. Keep the matters of the pill refining a secret, even to my mother you can't reveal a bit of information."

When Hong Ling opened her eyes again, the Pill Room was empty and the young lady had left.

Profound Jade Realm. Her cultivation had actually increased by one level.

Miss, she was an Alchemist, a great Alchemist. Miss was not a waste.

Hong Ling's face was red, and there was a sense of pride in her chest she had never felt before. She had to practice more, she couldn't drag the young lady down.

In Yue Jing Hua's residence, Lie Rou was nagging and packing her daughter's luggage.

Profound Pearl Academy was located at the outskirts of Po Lou City. The students lived in the school.

"Mother, here are some gold coins. Take them first and use them. Big Brother's life in the Long Zhan Empire isn't easy, let him stop sending money from the today on," in the memory of "Yue Jing Hua", the eldest son of the Yue Family, Yue Minzhi, was a 18-years-old boy who was cautious and loved his sister very much.

Every month, Yue Minzhi would ask people to sent a letter and money to his family.

The letter, most of it was about his family and his sister, it could be seen that Yue Mingzhi was a typical "sis-con".

"Jing Hua, where did you get so much money from?" Lie Rou counted roughly, and found that Yue Jing Hua had given her thousands of gold coins, which was not at all a small amount.

"Mother, the money is very clean, you can use it with confidence. I will come back to the estate once a month. You don't have to worry about the money, but you should also remember not to tell the people of the Lie Family of the money's origin. Especially Lie Si Si," Lie Rou seemed to understand, after listening to Jing Hua's warning, reminding her to watch out for Lie Si Si, even before Yue Jing Hua and Lie Si Si had never been on good terms.

A loud "bang" came from somewhere in the Lie Estate.

This was already the third blast from midnight to dawn. After hearing the explosion, Yue Jing Hua's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

***

In a Pill Room of the Lie Family, a heat wave rolled, and Pill Furnace exploded, its ash filling the entire room.

Lie Si SI's eyes were bloodshot, her hair was messy, she was quite different from the young elegant lady of the daytime. Her clothes were even more burnt and messy, she was restless, "It has failed again and again, this is already the third time. How could the pill be made in Tai Chang, but I can't, it's clearly just three types of compatible herbs, but why can't I make the mystic pill."

Just yesterday Lie Si Si had gotten a precious mystic pill. She directly broke through the Profound Jade Realm. This should have been great news for Lie Si Si, who would have to get some practical experience in the second half of the year.

But Lie Si Si didn't have the slightest joy, the reason was a pill formula, the pill formula the Lie Family spent ten thousand second-rank profound pellets on in Tai Chang.

Last night, after the Lie Family obtained the Pill formula, Lie Si Si was called by her Second Grandfather.

Lie Chang Shun had taken out the two Precious Jade Pills that could make a Profound Human Cultivator break through the Profound Jade Realm in a short time. The plan was for Lie Si Si to get a pill and the other to be put aside for the time being.

Lie Si Si couldn't believe it, she had never heard of such a mystic pill on the mainland, but after taking it, its effects were obvious, and there was really no side effect. It really made her shocked.

She didn't hesitate to plead to Chang Shun to give her the second pill.

It was a pity that after taking the second Precious Jade Pill there was no effect.

That night, Lie Si Si started refining.

After a night, Lie Si Si with a normal success rate of 80% couldn't refine the pill. This wasn't even all, because of the strong repulsive force after failing the refinement, three Pill Furnaces were destroyed.

Looking at the mess in the Pill Room, Lie Si Si's eyes were full of unwillingness.

Today, she had to go back to the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy, so, Alchemy had to be put aside for a while.

"Miss, the carriage to Profound Pearl Imperial Academy is ready," announced a house guard outside the Pill Room.

Lie Si Si frowning eyebrows smoothed out a little: "Bring my luggage to the carriage, by the way, please invite cousin Jing Hua, I will go to Profound Pearl Imperial Academy with her."

When Yue Jing Hua arrived, she saw the servants of the second family carry various types of luggage to a luxurious carriage.

"Sister Jing Hua, this is the first time you will go to Profound Pearl Imperial Academy, you probably don't know the way, I will send you over," Lie Si Si's face, covered with a pretty smile, protruded out of the carriage window and she invited her to go with her.

From eating to other daily necessities, Lie Si Si spent ten times as much as Yue Jing Hua, the comfort of the carriage did not need to be mentioned.

"Then I would like to thank my sister," When you could go "First Class", why go "Economy Class"? Yue Jing Hua didn't refuse and went straight into the carriage.

In the moment Yue Jing Hua got on the wagon, a fierce color flashed through Lie Si SI's eyes.
