Chapter 2054 — A Thunderous Blast

"Yes, so make a copy. Just remember not to let anyone else see it," Wei Zhao said.
"Mm-hmm!" Han Jingyi said, and began photographing the pages with her tablet. After she had captured the pill-condensation method, she did not touch anything else in the alchemist's notebook—Wei Zhao had not told her to look at it, and she did not ask.
"Further back there are some notes and pill recipes on how Yellow Rank first- and second-grade alchemists refine pills. Photograph those too, take them home and study them, and try refining a few simple pills," Wei Zhao said. Now that he had brought out the notebook, there was no point being stingy.
But he did not want Han Jingyi looking at the more advanced material for the time being. Her strength had not reached that level yet, and studying such things too early would only leave her with more than she could chew—haste, as they said, did not make for speed.
Once Han Jingyi had photographed everything she needed, she closed the alchemist's notebook and handed it back to Wei Zhao. "Brother Wei Zhao, here you go. Jingjing will go home and study now!"
"Mm. If there's any news, call me anytime," Wei Zhao said with a nod, putting the notebook away.
Han Jingyi hugged her tablet and went home happily, while Wei Zhao watched her retreating figure, the shock in his heart beyond measure, and it was a long time before it subsided…
"Brother Arrow Brand, that Han Jingyi, she seems really amazing?" Shen Yushu had at some point come to stand beside Wei Zhao and now spoke to him.
"Yes, very amazing! Truly amazing!" Wei Zhao said. "I'm afraid the heavy task of helping the little rock-sugar girl refine pills is going to fall on her shoulders!"
Wei Zhao had already lost confidence in his own pill-refining skills, but who would have thought that just when all seemed lost, a new path would open up—that what he had sought far and wide would come to him without any effort at all!
A neighbor and classmate he had met by chance turned out to be a pill-refining genius! This scientific method of refining pills was simply unprecedented and unrepeatable! Compared with Han Jingyi, those alchemists were utterly feeble—this girl really was extraordinarily formidable!
"Brother Arrow Brand, Xiaoshu thinks that Han Jingyi doesn't seem stupid at all!" Shen Yushu said.
"Not stupid?" Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Shen Yushu.
"It's nothing, Xiaoshu was just saying whatever came to mind." With that, Shen Yushu dropped the subject. "Brother Arrow Brand, breakfast is ready—Grandma Sun has already prepared it!"
"Is it breakfast time already?" Wei Zhao had not expected the whole night to pass without his noticing. Had he known, he would have kept Han Jingyi here for breakfast…
After breakfast, Wei Zhao wasted no more time and went back to his room to cultivate!
Even Han Jingyi, limited by her own strength, probably could not refine a Yellow Rank third-grade pill, so the only thing Wei Zhao could do was raise his own strength higher and higher! Only if Wei Zhao became a Heaven Rank expert and raised Han Jingyi's strength to the peak of the late Earth Rank could Han Jingyi perhaps refine the Ice Heart Jade Bone Pill!
Normally, the peak of the late Earth Rank was not enough to sustain a Yellow Rank third-grade alchemist refining pills—at the very least, one needed to be an early Heaven Rank expert. But since Han Jingyi had simplified and improved the pill-fire condensation method and the control techniques, it was estimated that at the peak of the late Earth Rank she should be able to refine a Yellow Rank third-grade pill successfully!
And Wei Zhao had no choice but to pin his hopes on this!
This was the goal: he would become Heaven Rank, and Han Jingyi would become a Yellow Rank third-grade alchemist. That way, no matter how domineering the little rock-sugar girl was, she would no longer make things difficult for Feng Xiaoxiao!
