Chapter 625: Treasure Seeking Mouse
Ye Xiao smile bitterly and thought in his heart, "Why did I choose this way of entering the Moon Shadow Family? There is simply too much trouble here. I think I"ll definitely have to refine the pill for Third Princess so that she can win this compet.i.tion. After this compet.i.tion, I"ll leave the side of the Third princess and go to meet the master."
"Third Princess, do you need me to do something?" Ye Xiao knew what the Third Princess wanted, but even so, he still asked as if he was unaware of everything.
The Third Princess nodded her head and said loudly, "I want you to compete with my sixth sister"s subordinate, Yu Ci, for the alchemy. If you win, I will reward you with a baby Treasure Seeking Mouse!"
Treasure Seeking Mouse?
Ye Xiao was slightly shocked when he heard this. He had seen this fellow in the memories of the Ancient G.o.d of Weapon Refinement before.
The Treasure Seeking Mouse is said to be born with strength at the Ancient Immortal Realm. It was called Treasure Seeking Mouse because it was born with the talent to find rare treasures. However, the most commendable thing was that adult Treasure Seeking Mouse could grow up to become a Divine Level Demonic Beast!
Hence, this was a rather special type of Demonic Beast.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiao suddenly felt that Third Princess"s face had become very cute.
"Dragon Seeking Mouse? Third Sister, you are really generous."
When the Sixth Princess heard this, her face flashed with a trace of jealousy and hatred, then she looked at Ye Xiao with a smile and said, "I have never seen him before. Is he an external helper you?"
"You don"t need to know!" The Third Princess snorted lightly and said.
On the other hand, the other Immortal Alchemist Grandmaster, Yu Ci, who was half a step behind the Sixth Princess, looked at Ye Xiao with a fierce look. He showed a look of disdain on his face.
The Sixth Princess smiled and said, "Since that"s the case, I want to see what"s so great about this helper of yours. Third Sister, let"s make a bet. The bet is your Little White and the location of that Ancient Ruin. If I lose, I will give you my position of entering the Moon Shadow Secret Realm. What do you think?"
The Third Princess immediately nodded her head and agreed with this bet.
"Then let"s sign the contract." The Sixth Princess immediately smiled and said with a chuckle.
After signing the contract, the Third Princess said, "Then let"s bet on refining High Immortal Grade Spirit Nourishing Pill." Finished talking, a trace of slyness flashed across her eyes.
Yu Ci sneered with disdain when he heard this and said, "We are Immortal Alchemist Grandmaster and you are telling us to compete by refining High Immortal Grade Spirit Nourishing Pill? Truly laughable."
The Sixth Princess also laughed and said, "Yeah, you must be joking."
The Third Princess immediately frowned and said," Then what medicinal pill do you want to refine? If my subordinates do not know the pill formula, how will they compete?"
"Let him decide the contents of the compet.i.tion then!" The Sixth Princess looked at Ye Xiao and said.
Ye Xiao looked at Third Princess and said with a smile, "Third Princess, you just said that if I win, you will reward me with a Treasure Seeking Mouse."
Deng San smiled. He looked at Ye Xiao with a mocking look. Along the way, although he had been talking and laughing with Ye Xiao, but in his bones, there was a kind of uncompromising temperament. He also had his bones filled with pride.
But when he heard Ye Xiao asking about the Treasure Seeking Mouse, a mocking smile appeared on his face and he looked at Ye Xiao as if he was looking at an idiot.
The Third Princess said impatiently, "Of course. Do you think I am joking? Quickly tell them what kind of medicinal pill you will refine. As long as you win this compet.i.tion, I will definitely reward you!"
"Everyone, wait a moment. I know too many pill formulas. Let me think." Ye Xiao said and closed his eyes.
"Pretending to be mysterious."
Yu Ci sneered disdainfully and said when he heard Ye Xiao telling that he knows too many formulas and he needed some time to decide what kind of pill he will refine.
He didn"t believe that Ye Xiao knows many medicinal pill recipes. In his eyes, this was totally Ye Xiao trying to create pressure for him.
"I won"t be fooled." He thought with a sneer.
The Sixth Princess had a smile on her face and looked very calm. However, there was a trace of doubt that was hard to detect in her eyes.
"Does he know so many pill formulas? Does he need to think for so long?"
The Third Princess was a little surprised, but what followed was a joy. The more Ye Xiao acted this way, the more confidence she had in him.
After a while, Ye Xiao opened his eyes and said with a confident smile, "Let"s compete in the Unique Battle Pill. Do you know how to refine this pill?"
"Unique Battle Pill?"
A trace of relief and disdain flashed across Yu Ci"s eyes. He thought that Ye Xiao would play some tricks. He did not expect that Ye Xiao would eventually choose this kind of pill that could be found anywhere.
Sixth Princess heaved a sigh of relief in her heart and a smile appeared on her face. Yu Ci had mastered how to refine the Unique Battle Pill eighteen years ago. This was one of the few pills that he was good at, so the bet this time should be settled!
A trace of anxiety appeared in the Third Princess"s eyes. She gave Ye Xiao a look, but Ye Xiao pretended not to see it. She was so angry that she almost wanted Deng San to slap Ye Xiao to death.
How could Ye Xiao choose the Unique Battle Pill!
Of course, she knew that Yu Ci was skilled in refining the Unique Battle Pill. It seemed that the outcome of the bet this time was uncertain.
Yu Ci smiled and said, "Then let"s choose the Unique Battle Pill. How do we compete, you guys set the rule."
His words were filled with incomparable confidence.
"Third Sister, are you afraid? If you don"t want to bet, I can give you a chance."
The Sixth Princess took the chance to mock the Third Princess.
Third Princess immediately snorted and said, "Why would I be afraid? Sixth Sister, if you want to bet, I will bet with you."
"Why don"t we just follow the normal rules and compete in pill forging speed and success rate as well as the pill"s quality?"
Deng San said with a smile.
Both parties agreed with his suggestion.
After that, everyone went to the backyard of the Third Princess Mansion. Although it was called a backyard, it was actually a garden. It was an endless garden and some Ice Crystal Winged Tigers were running and playing occasionally. The place where Third Princess lived was very grand and huge.
Ye Xiao and Yu Ci sat down and started concocting pills. The servants of both sides were already glaring at each other. The leader of the guards beside the Sixth Princess, who was also an Early Stage Ancient Immortal Realm martial artist, looked at Deng San. There was a trace of schadenfreude and ridicule in his eyes. It was obvious that the relationship between the two of them was not good. There was some enmity between them.
"Master Ye, you can do it!"
"You must defeat Yu Ci. I believe you can!"
Deng San"s group of guards cheered for Ye Xiao. After that, the servants who saw Ye Xiao for the first time followed closely behind and cheered him on!
The Third Princess saw this and her face flushed red. She also shouted, "Ye Xiao, defeat that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Yu Ci!"
"Master Yu Ci, We are waiting for you to come back victorious!"
"Let him see how powerful you are and how profound your alchemy skills are!"
Sixth Princess"s subordinates did not want to be outdone. They also started to mock and ridicule Ye Xiao.
The Sixth Princess also revealed a very reserved and elegant smile, as if victory was within her grasp.
After about two hours, some servants had gathered the herbs to refine the Unique Battle Pills and transported them over. Each person had 3 sets of those herbs.
"Master Ye, are you ready? Let"s begin."
Yu Ci revealed a confident smile and spoke slowly. His tone was filled with obvious ridicule.
"Then let"s begin." Ye Xiao also smiled and said with a slight nod.
After that, a blue flame rose from Yu Ci"s hand. It looked like a blooming lotus flower.
"This is the 79th ranked Fire Soul in the list of Rare Fire Souls, the Blue Lotus Fire Soul. Master Ye, you need to be careful."
Seeing the flame, Deng San reminded Ye Xiao from the side, though there was no need for him to do this.. Ye Xiao"s Fire Soul was much stronger than the Blue Lotus Fire Soul.
