Chapter 535 Mu Yuelan's World Turns Upside Down
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Bai Zihan looked at Mu Linyue for a brief moment.Then he nodded inwardly, satisfied.
In just a single month, raising someone from Grade-4 to Grade-5 Alchemist-
Even he had to admit-
That was monstrous.
Of course, it was also thanks to his teaching as well.
Mu Linyue's own talent was terrifying to the extreme but without him, she would have taken a very long time to make a breakthrough.
He had pointed the direction and she had walked the path herself.
And walked it faster than anyone he had ever seen.
With that, there was nothing more for him to do here.
His purpose in the Mu Clan had already been fulfilled.
Well, he had only considered staying for a few days to test his ability but ended up staying for over a month because of Mu Linyue.
He didn't think it was a bad investment though.
With Mu Linyue's talent, in the future, she would certainly surpass everyone and might stay at the peak of alchemy.
By then, he didn't need to worry about not getting any pills.
Now, it was time to return to the Bai Clan.
Before leaving, however, Bai Zihan made one final decision.
Within his storage, several Seventh Grade pill recipes appeared.
Apart from refining pills and teaching Mu Linyue, he had also been spending his
time writing down the recipes for the Grade-7 pills.
For an alchemist to break into Grade-7, talent alone was not enough.
Skill alone was not enough.
Even resources alone were not enough.
One crucial element determined everything: Recipes.
Without a proper Seventh Grade pill recipe-
Even the most talented alchemist would be stuck at the threshold.
Unable to take that final step.
And that was precisely what limited the Mu Clan.
They had talent.
They had resources.
What they lacked were the paths forward.
Bai Zihan also spent time determining which pill recipes to give, as not every one of them was useful nor were their ingredients found in the Desolate Heaven Empire.
In the end, he decided on 10 Grade-7 pill recipes, which should be more than enough.
With those, it would only be a matter of time before the Mu Clan inevitably produced Seventh Grade Alchemists.
Their standing would rise once more.
Their influence would expand.
And their foundation in alchemy would become even more terrifying.
After all, in the Eastern Region, only the Vermillion Pill Empire has Grandmaster Alchemists.
This was the final thing he was going to do before leaving the Mu Clan.
Mu Yuelan arrived outside the alchemy room without much thought.
She had been called by Bai Zihan, so naturally, she came.
She raised her hand and pushed the door open.
Hum-
The formation rippled slightly as she entered.
Inside, the flames burned steadily.
Bai Zihan stood beside the furnace, expression calm, posture relaxed.
Mu Linyue stood opposite him.
Focused.
Attentive.
Like a student listening to her master.
Mu Yuelan blinked once.
(Since when did they become like this?)
But she didn't think too much about it.
If anything, she felt a bit relieved.
The two of them getting along like this was something she hadn't expected.
Given their personalities, she had thought there would be conflict.
Yet now, they were helping each other in alchemy, which she thought was
good.
Her gaze naturally shifted toward the furnace.
Right on time, Mu Linyue lifted the lid.
A rich fragrance spread instantly.
Mu Yuelan's brows furrowed slightly.
(This aura...)
Mu Linyue reached in and took the pill out.
That was the moment everything froze.
Mu Yuelan's eyes widened.
Her pupils shrank violently.
Her entire body went still.
As if struck by lightning.
A pill rested in Mu Linyue's palm.
Mid-tier... Fifth Grade Pill!
For a brief moment, Mu Yuelan thought she was seeing things.
Her mind blanked.
Her gaze locked onto that pill, unable to move away.
(Mid-tier... Grade-5?)
Just a month ago, Mu Linyue had only just broken through to Grade-4.
Even with her talent-
Even with her monstrous comprehension-
This speed was absolutely absurd.
She rubbed her eyes, thinking she saw wrong and that perhaps it was a
Mid-tier Grade-4 pill.
Yet the scene before her remained unchanged.
Meanwhile, Bai Zihan glanced at the pill casually.
Then nodded.
"Not bad!"
His tone was as casual as ever.
As if it wasn't anything worth making a fuss over.
"You've stabilized it well. Your control over the flame is better now."
A simple comment.
A simple acknowledgment.
Nothing more.
Mu Linyue nodded.
Her expression was also as calm as his.
As if this result was expected.
As if this was normal.
That calmness...
That indifference...
Mu Yuelan stood there-
Silent.
Her mind struggling to process what she had just witnessed.
(She broke through?)
(No... This isn't just a breakthrough...)
(She's already refining mid-tier Grade-5 pills?)
Her fingers trembled slightly. She didn't even realize it herself.
Bai Zihan's gaze shifted slightly.
Then he noticed her.
"Oh, Mother, you've come!"
His tone was casual, as if nothing unusual had happened.
He then waved his hand lightly.
"Mu Linyue, go back to your room and practice more."
Mu Linyue nodded without hesitation.
"Alright!"
She turned and walked out calmly-
As if everything that had just occurred was perfectly normal.
"Stop!"
Mu Yuelan's voice suddenly rang out.
"Stop acting like everything is normal!"
Both Bai Zihan and Mu Linyue paused. Even Bai Zihan was slightly startled. He blinked.
"Mother, what's wrong?" He asked, genuinely confused.
Mu Yuelan took a deep breath.
Her eyes locked onto Mu Linyue. "When did you break through to Grade-5?"
Mu Linyue tilted her head slightly.
She thought for a moment.
Then-
"I don't remember exactly... Maybe about a week ago?"
Her tone was casual.
As if she was talking about something insignificant.
As if the exact time didn't matter at all.
Mu Yuelan froze.
A vein faintly throbbed on her forehead.
(A week ago?)
A headache crept in.
She raised a hand and pressed her temple lightly.
/p>
Trying to calm herself.
(This girl...)
Breaking through to Grade-5 Alchemist-
And treating it like nothing?
Not even reporting it?
Mu Yuelan exhaled slowly. She forced herself to settle down.
This matter needed to be discussed with the elders.
And Mu Linyue needed to be properly reminded.
Such breakthroughs were not trivial.
They couldn't be ignored so casually. After a moment, she finally shifted her gaze. Toward Bai Zihan.
"Why did you call me here?"
She asked.
Bai Zihan didn't delay.
He simply raised his hand.
A stack of jade slips appeared in his palm.
Without hesitation, he handed them over. Mu Yuelan subconsciously accepted them.
Her brows furrowed slightly.
"And this is...?" Bai Zihan smiled faintly.
"Seventh Grade pill recipes!"
