864. Setback (2)Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Xiao Chen smiled, “Anyway, it’s a good thing, isn’t it?”

Mo Fei rolled his eyes and said, “Yeah.”

Xiao Chen looked at Mo Fei, “All right, Mo Fei, we should focus on the potion now. I heard from senior Cheng that another heavenly class got poison attack.”

Mo Fei’s face instantly straightened. One after another got poison attack. No one knew when it would be Cheng Mobai and Wang Weixing’s turn.

Xiao Chen looked at Mo Fei, “Mo Fei, how many odds do you have to work out the painkilling potion?”

Mo Fei smiled helplessly and said, “Only 30 percent.”

Xiao Chen gave him an eye, “We now standing on the opposite side of the pharmacists’ association, if we can’t make a little achievement, I’m afraid the other side will take the opportunity to stir up trouble again.”

Mo Fei heaved a sigh and said, “Do what we can and leave the rest to destiny.”

“…”

Qian Ye kept unwrapping the gifts, stuffily saying, “Lou Yu is so damn lucky. After he made it to heavenly class, so many people send him gifts!”

Su Rong smiled and said, “Yeah!”

Lou Yu had been popular enough before, now he was even more popular. Countless people were trying to rope him in. All sects vied with each other to send him gifts. Recently, the gifts they received already piled up into a little hill.

“This jade pendant looks nice! It suits me.” Lou Yu held a jade pendant.

“This seems to be the Spirit Link Jade Pendant!” said Su Rong. The Spirit Link Jade Pendant can purify the star source force, a rare treasure!

Qian Ye clenched the jade pendant, “This thing belongs to me now, don’t tell Lou Yu.”

Su Rong cast a glance at him and said, “Don’t worry. Prince Yu may even not lay his eyes on it.” To those below heavenly class, that jade pendant is very useful.

“What is this?” Qian Ye opened a box, puzzled.

Inside of it were hundreds of paintings.

Su Rong unwrapped one and saw that there were men and women on it, very pretty.

“This jade box was sent by Hehuan Sect. Those people on the paintings should all be furnaces carefully cultivated by them.” Su Rong replied.

Qian Ye’s face darkened, “Oh damn, don’t they have anything else to send? Why such nasty things?”

Su Rong shrugged his shoulders. “Who knows?” The Hehuan Sect enjoyed a tattered reputation outside. Many people are contemptuous of disciples from their sect. But actually the furnaces they cultivate are very popular.”

“Put these paintings away. Lou Yu has too weak willpower. Maybe once he sees those paintings, he’d be seduced away.”

Su Rong said disapprovingly, “But I think you are the one who has too weak willpower.”

Qian Ye looked bitterly at Su Rong, “Rongrong, how can you think of me like that? I am so committed to you.”

Su Rong smiled, “Didn’t see it.”

“…”

Cheng Mobai walked into Mo Fei’s pharmacy room.

“Have you worked it out yet?” Cheng Mobai walked in while asking.

Mo Fei nodded, “I’ve tried five formulations. They’re all here, but I haven’t found anyone to try them yet.”

“Give them to me. I’ll get someone to try them for you.” Cheng Mbai said.

Mo Fei nodded, “OK.”

…

Lou Yu walked into the laboratory, looking at the desolate Mo Fei, “What’s wrong?”

Mo Fei reluctantly raised his head and sighed, “The potions I worked out don’t work on the soul-killing potion at all.”

Lou Yu looked at Mo Fei, “So many pharmacists of the pharmacists association still haven’t gone anywhere after so long. It’ll only be strange if you could work it out so easily. So, don’t give yourself too much pressure.”

Mo Fei gave a bitter smile and said, “That’s true, but it’s still frustrating.” Recently everything had been too smooth, so facing such a result, he felt kind of frustrated.

Lou Yu put an arm around his shoulder, smiled and said, “Take it easy. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

“I know. Maybe I’m too greedy.” Mo Fei said.

Mo Fei took a deep breath. Time was pressing. And it was already the second poison attack. Maybe soon it would be Cheng Mobai and Wang Weixing’s turn. Although he said he was unsure whether it’d work, actually, in his heart, he really placed great hope on his potions.

Lou Yu looked at Mo Fei, “Too much water drowned the miller. Don’t push yourself too hard. How about you go to the Stone Tablet Woods to take a look?”

“The Stone Tablet Woods?” Mo Fei narrowed his eyes slightly.

Lou Yu nodded, “Yes!”

Mo Fei pondered a while and said, “All right.”

It was said that the Stone Tablet Woods had been standing in the herb capital for millions of years, the inheritance of the things on them should date back to ancient times. If he could comprehend things on the last few stone tablets, it would be of great help to his work on the antidote.

Xiao Chen walked out, saying with his head tilted, “Are you going to the Stone Tablet Woods? Count me in.”

The building smiled and said, “That’s right. Let’s go together.”

The Xiao Dust nodded and said, “Good!”

When Mo Fei and Lou Yu appeared at the Stone Tablet Woods, it caused a big stir. Many people were trying to get close to Mo Fei. But Lou Yu stayed closely by his side, and stopped them.
