Chapter 82 Exposed
"Tell me, what do you want...?"
Lin Que said to Fairy Cai Li as if he were surrendering, "This woman probably has some mental issues."
Fairy Cai Li's smile vanished, and she snorted, saying, "You'll find out soon enough. Didn't you want to see how I'd explain this girl to you?"
"It was originally supposed to be for tomorrow, but after thinking about it, I decided to take care of it today."
"Let's go, follow me to the Azure Cloud Palace!"
After saying that, Fairy Cai Li ignored Lin Que behind her and led Qu Lingyi forward.
Upon hearing this, Lin Que's eyes flashed, and he quickly followed.
He really wanted to know how Fairy Cai Li would deal with the person who had schemed against Qu Lingyi.
When the three arrived at Biyun Palace, it was already surrounded by disciples of Biyun Peak.
However, they were all women, and everyone's attention was focused on Lin Que.
This made Lin Que realize for the first time that no matter how thick-skinned he was, it was useless, since he was being watched by a group of women.
But then I thought, it's better than being stared at by a bunch of men.
Suddenly, I felt much more natural.
Meanwhile, a beautiful figure was already waiting in the center of the hall.
After Fairy Cai Li slowly walked to her seat in the hall, she asked the beautiful figure, "Zhao Fangqian, tell me."
"Today I assigned you to mentor Lingyi, but where did you go afterwards?"
Zhao Fangqian, standing in the center of the hall, calmly said, "Reporting to Master, when I took Junior Sister Lingyi to the market..."
"I suddenly remembered that there are still some pills that have been refined but not yet collected on Biyun Peak."
"I rushed back to collect it. As you know, Master, if the pills are not collected in time, their medicinal effects will be completely lost."
It turns out that Zhao Fangqian was not only a cultivator within Biyun Peak, but also an alchemist.
After hearing these words, Lin Que roughly understood what Fairy Cai Li wanted to do by taking him back to Biyun Peak.
Fairy Cai Li was indeed aware that if the pills were not collected in time after they were made, their medicinal properties would be lost.
But there's a time frame involved.
Although she didn't understand, as a powerful expert in the late stage of Golden Core, she wasn't stupid.
Naturally, she wouldn't believe Zhao Fangqian's one-sided story; she probably guessed that Zhao Fangqian would use this excuse.
So he took Lin Que back to Biyun Peak with him.
As for how Fairy Cai Li learned that Lin Que could refine pills, it must have been during the Qingyun Sect's disciple recruitment trial, when she was chatting with Feng Wuxue on the stage, and she knew that his pill refining skills were definitely not bad.
Thinking of this, Lin Que asked Zhao Fangqian, "Junior brother would like to ask, senior sister, what kind of pill are you refining?"
Zhao Fangqian heard Lin Que's voice from the side and turned to look at him curiously, as did the others.
Zhao Fangqian then turned back to look at Fairy Caili, her meaning being something like, "Who is this Master?"
Fairy Cai Li nodded and said, "Tell him. Your master is also very curious about what kind of elixir you are refining."
Seeing that her master had said so, Zhao Fangqian turned to Lin Que again and said, "What I refined is the fourth-grade Soul Nourishing Pill."
It must be said that the female disciples of Biyun Peak are undeniably beautiful, and Zhao Fangqian's looks are definitely among the best.
This made Lin Que admire him in his heart.
But what a pity!
She's still not as cute and pretty as our Lingyi.
Lin Que asked curiously, "I wonder if Senior Sister could take out the pills so that Junior Brother can have a look?"
Zhao Fangqian once again cast a look at Fairy Cai Li seeking a signal, and her face began to show some impatience.
It was as if it were asking, "Who is this bald man, and why should I listen to him?"
However, Fairy Cai Li still nodded.
Having no other choice, Zhao Fangqian took out a bottle of pills from her sleeve and threw it at Lin Que.
Lin Que reached out and caught it, then opened the bottle, poured out a pill, and held it up to his face to examine it closely.
The female disciples around him all looked at him with curiosity, including Fairy Cai Li.
After a while...
Lin Que then put the pill away and tossed it back to Zhao Fangqian.
A calm smile appeared on her face as she said, "Senior Sister Zhao, I'm afraid you're lying."
Zhao Fangqian caught it, frowned, and said, "I don't understand what you mean."
Lin Que smiled and said, "That bottle of pills was indeed a fourth-grade Soul Nourishing Pill, but..."
"This is a Soul Nourishing Pill that has been refined for more than a month."
"Senior Sister Zhao, am I right or wrong?"
Zhao Fangqian retorted sharply, "Which peak are you from? Besides, do you even know anything about alchemy?"
"And do you know what the medicinal properties of the pills are?"
"Don't spout nonsense here!"
After speaking, she looked at her master, Fairy Cai Li, as if to say that this person was a liar and that she should not be deceived by Lin Que's one-sided story.
Even the female disciples around them started to whisper among themselves...
"Yeah yeah!"
"How could Senior Sister Zhao lie about something like this?"
"Senior Sister Zhao is usually very gentle and kind; she would never lie."
"What's up with this bald guy? Is he trying to slander Senior Sister Zhao?"
"..."
Seeing this, Lin Que completely ignored these idle gossips.
Instead, he smiled and said, "I knew you would say that, so let me have a chat with you."
"As for whether I can refine pills, you'll find out soon enough."
"The medicinal properties and effects of the Soul Nourishing Pill are simply that when one's soul is damaged, taking it can help accelerate the repair of the soul."
"And the higher the quality, the better, am I right?"
Zhao Fangqian still frowned and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
"These are common sense; anyone who cultivates and has ever come into contact with elixirs knows them."
Lin had a slight flaw, saying, "It's common sense, but you've overlooked a crucial point."
"That is the Crimson Pattern!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fangqian's expression changed slightly, but she remained silent, still pretending to be calm.
Lin Que continued, "Each type of pill will be accompanied by pill patterns after it is refined, ranging from one to five patterns."
"Moreover, the marks on the pills will gradually fade as the pills are stored for a longer period of time."
"I just saw that the three pill patterns on the bottle of Soul Nourishing Pills in Senior Sister Zhao's hand are so faint that they are almost invisible."
"It must have been stored for at least a month, right?"
Zhao Fangqian's expression finally changed drastically!
"Oh! Right, there's one more thing."
"So, Senior Sister Zhao, as an alchemist, you must disdain refining those pills that don't even have pill patterns, right?"
"There's no need to even collect pills without any special markings."
"Don't tell me that Senior Sister Zhao left Lingyi in the market and ran back to Biyun Peak just to collect a batch of waste pills."
"That's kind of funny!"
After Lin Que finished speaking, he smiled, but his gaze turned sharply to Zhao Fangqian!
Even Fairy Cai Li looked at her disciple with a hint of pressure in her eyes.
It was as if they demanded an immediate explanation from her!
"who are you!!!"
At this moment, Zhao Fangqian looked at Lin Que with a ferocious expression!
The calm and gentle expression she had at the beginning was gone...
