"Yang An, what are you doing!?"
Yang Xin was sleeping peacefully in his room when he suddenly heard an explosion sound coming from the pill cauldron. Even without changing clothes, only with her body covered by a sheet, she ran to the pill room.
However, as soon as she opened the hall door and saw her black-faced nephew lying on the floor, she immediately turned to the servant who was at her side. "Quickly bring a pain relief pill to Yang An."
After saying that, she ran to Yang An's side to see if there were any more serious injuries. Even though her expression was neutral, her eyes betrayed her feeling of concern.
As she approached Yang An, she took a wet handkerchief from her space ring and gently wiped her nephew's face. Seeing that there was no wound on her body, she breathed a sigh of relief before saying slowly:
"Yang An, I have already said, one must respect time and wait for the right opportunity to make pills. You are definitely the most talented young man in alchemy I know, and I know you could become an alchemist Grand master in the future, but right now, the most important thing for you is to get stronger. Don't care what other people think of you now, but show them what you can do in the future and let them see your talent." Yang Xin said carefully, taking care not to hurt Yang An with his movements.
Feeling Yang Xin's love for him, Yang An felt touched in his heart.
He inherited this body, so naturally he also inherited the feelings of this body. No matter if it was the Yang An of now or the one of the past, he still deeply cared for his aunt, who loved him with the same intensity.
"Big sister, sorry to have worried you." Yang An lowered his head and whispered small words.
Yang Xin was shocked by his nephew's words. This punk... What's wrong with him today? Why does he feel so different from the spoiled nephew of the past?
Could it be that after this incident, he suddenly woke up to reality?
After being stunned for a while, Yang Xin was immediately overjoyed. With a smile in her eyes, she said:
"As long as you're okay."
Right now, bam!
The door to the hall swung open with a bang, and the servant who had left at the beginning entered, holding a small jade vial containing a pill.
Yang Xin didn't mind the servant's hurried entry, and quickly took the pill bottle from his hand. Dropping the pill into her hand, she quickly inserted it into Yang An's mouth, "Come, quickly swallow this pain relief pill, and get up to shower. You stink of coal."
Yang Xin said casually after seeing the pill being absorbed into his nephew's body.
Rolling his eyes at Yang Xin's hurried movement, Yang An quickly sat up cross-legged and began to absorb the pill into his body.
In less than ten minutes, he was no longer in pain, and he was finally able to stand. However, he didn't notice Yang Xin's shocked look upon seeing this.
That's because in the past, Yang An would take one to two hours to fully absorb a pill like this. But now, he finished it in less than ten minutes which was incomparable to his previous time.
However, she didn't say anything. That's because she didn't want to plant new hopes in Yang An's life. Not with him being so weird tonight.
At least, she would wait a few days before broaching the subject again.
...
In the middle of the night, Yang An was lying on his bed as he tried to ignore the softness pressed against his back. Behind him, was Yang Xin sleeping comfortably as he had his arms around Yang An's body.
With a heavy sigh, trying to forget this feeling, Yang An closed his eyes, and instinctively entered an unknown location within his mind. It was like a dream come true, but he witnessed a huge library gradually appearing in front of him.
The library looked all white with approximately twenty floors. However, there was a red barrier on the stairs leading to the second floor, preventing Yang An from going further up. - So, without many options, he started to explore only the first floor.
It had many books neatly stored on various shelves, with approximately fifty or sixty thousand books on the first floor alone. The library space was huge, with sturdy white walls easily highlighting the colorful book covers.
Yang An walked for more than ten minutes, looking vaguely at some books that caught his eye. For example, some Alchemy books and inscriptions that looked very interesting.
Unfortunately, because they were books too advanced for his current knowledge, he understood almost nothing of what was written.
He could read and reread as many times as necessary, but he just couldn't understand. It was as if he was trying to do the math for a college bill, being only in kindergarten.
Knowing he couldn't receive the knowledge as easily as he had hoped, he just smiled bitterly before continuing to look for some books on his 'Level'.
However, he stopped suddenly when a golden glow appeared from the center of the Library's first floor.
Realizing that it must be some treasure, Yang An quickly ran towards the source of the glow. However, just as he was a few feet away from seeing what that glow was, a flaming book suddenly flew towards him and sunk into the center of his forehead.
'I will die!'
Just as Yang An was terrified of dying once more, he woke up breathing heavily on his bed as yet another wave of new knowledge was being digested by his mind.
At first, Yang An's eyes widened in fear. However, he soon grinned madly inwardly as he realized what all this knowledge was all about in his mind.
It was all knowledge of a single cultivation technique. "Tyrant Blue Flame" A cultivation technique that many alchemists have craved for their entire lives. This was a technique that could help Yang An generated flames in his hands to speed up the refinement of the pills. Also, with a fire of its own, the chance of refining a higher grade pill was extremely high.
