Chapter 396: Chapter 397: Breaking Through as a Low-level Mortal Rank Alchemist (Part 5)
In that instant, Ye Wuchen’s face darkened.
Some things can’t be replaced by just anyone, such as the child-making plan… Although Little White was still naive, such words could easily lead to wild guesses.
“She is my wife, there are certain things only she and I can do together. If you’re looking for someone to play with you, find a young female dragon. We won’t be accompanying you.”
As his words fell, he raised his arm to pull Mu Ruyue into his embrace and then disappeared from Little White’s sight…
“A female dragon?” Little White tilted its head, blinking in confusion, “What games can’t mom play with Little White, that only a female dragon can? Mom and dad have never told Little White about this…”
Suddenly, it snapped back to reality, its childlike voice echoing through the valley.
“Mom, where are you going? Don’t leave Little White behind!”
A gentle breeze swept through, leaving Little White standing alone in the wind, its delicate face filled with sadness, much like an abandoned puppy…
Three days passed in a flash. After these three days, the Dean delivered the materials Mu Ruyue needed. After inspecting the ingredients, she entered the Dan Book to refine Mortal-grade Pills.
Mortal-grade was extraordinary, and according to the level required, it would be only possible to refine them at the Advanced Innate level. However, she still had the continuous support of Qi from the Dan Book, so she could give it a try at the Intermediate Innate level.
“Little White, I’m refining elixirs, don’t let anyone disturb me.”
Mu Ruyue took a deep breath, her gaze landing on the Phoenix Tripod.
“Don’t worry, mom. But after you successfully refine the Mortal-grade Pill, can you tell me what game you went to play that day? Little White really wants to know why dad said Little White can only play with the female dragon,” Little White innocently looked at Mu Ruyue, curious.
Mu Ruyue’s face reddened. “That…you’ll understand when you’re older…”
“But, it will be a long time before Little White grows up,” Little White pouted, “The current energy isn’t enough for Little White to grow. I want to ask dad Wuchen, but he’s so scary. He won’t let Little White touch mom’s purse, nor let Little White kiss mom, just as scary as Little White’s real dad…”
Remembering the man’s darkened face, Little White shivered, obviously frightened.
“Little White, you’ll be my protector while I start refining the elixir.”
Mu Ruyue quickly changed the subject, for if they continued, there’s no telling what kind of shockingly inappropriate things the oblivious Little White might say…
“Mom, don’t worry, Little White won’t even let a bug come close, although I can’t go out to help mom right now, here in the world of the Dan Book, Little White is the king, and you, mom, are the empress.”
Hearing Little White’s analogy, Mu Ruyue’s mouth twitched slightly, she slowly withdrew her eyes, her gaze once again falling on the Phoenix Tripod…
“This time, I’m going to refine a Low-level Mortal Qi Absorption Pill.”
As implied by its name, the Qi Absorption Pill was undoubtedly related to the absorption of Qi, and it was only safe for those of Intermediate Innate level or higher to consume it; others would explode and die.
Even if consuming the Qi Absorption Pill doesn’t offer a direct breakthrough, it does help in absorbing Qi faster. Most importantly, this type of pill, which doesn’t directly cause breakthrough, won’t have any adverse effects on one’s foundation…
