Chapter 170: More Slaps in the Face

Due to the excitement, no one could sit still anymore . But then, soon enough, they started asking a lot of questions about the pills inside the Fire Cloud Furnace .

“Such a huge furnace, and it’s all filled with pills?”

“Judging from the smell, these are all Spirit Gathering Pills . The color shows that they’re Grade 8 with a fusion rate of 99% . They’re pretty much perfect!”

The guests couldn’t help but exchange glances and questions as they looked at the pills sitting inside the massive furnace . “It’s such a huge furnace . Are they all Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills?”

“If so, then surely there’s more than a thousand inside, right?”

“I’ve never seen so many Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills in one place . Now that I’ve seen this, I’m happy without even consuming any . ”

The guests were very excited about the colossal furnace full of Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills, so much so that once the people in front had finished looking, the guests standing at the back quickly moved to the front to have a look too . The gasping didn’t stop until everyone had their turn peeking inside .

Si Rong had just finished comforting Feng Xiuyu and walked out from the back just in time to see the enormous furnace full of pills . His first reaction was shock, but then he started feeling discomfort in his heart as he looked at Feng Tianlan . She was dressed entirely in white, and the warm candlelight cast a beautiful golden glow on her . Even the scar on her face didn’t affect her beauty, especially with the Phoenix Emblem that was all ready to fly . It was as if a fairy had descended to earth . She was strikingly attractive .

He wondered to himself where Feng Tianlan had gone off to for an entire month and whom she had hung out with . He assumed that some alchemist must have given her these Spirit Gathering Pills . Otherwise, there was no way she could have so many .

Si Rong began to regret the harsh words he’d spoken earlier . If he had known this was coming, he would have been softer towards her so that their relationship wouldn’t be so strained .

But it didn’t matter anymore . He could play things by ear . If the alchemist behind Feng Tianlan was very highly skilled, then he could try to trick her into giving him the alchemist . She liked him so much anyway, so if he spent a little more time and effort, he was sure that she would give him anything he wanted .

Everyone else was in great shock after seeing so many Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills . Only Si Mobai remained calm . In fact, he had raised his eyebrows just a little, showing how proud he was of Feng Tianlan . He stopped short of actually writing out ‘My Lan’er is the best!’ all over his face .

“Feng Tianlan, you’re good at tricking people . You’ve just put a layer of Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills on the outside, but nobody knows what else is beneath this layer,” Xu Jiayi commented sourly after seeing that the huge furnace contained one layer of Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills . She couldn’t help but be filled with jealousy and loathing for Feng Tianlan .

Feng Tianlan was merely a useless thing . She could neither make pills nor did she have any money, so it was impossible for her to have obtainted so many Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills . Xu Jiayi was sure that the pills only made up the furnace’s uppermost layer, and the rest was just filler .

Feng Xiang threw a dirty look at Xu Jiayi . This woman had spoken without thinking . Even if it contained just one layer of Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills, given the furnace’s size, it meant that it contained at least a hundred pills . That was very impressive in itself .

Feng Tianlan disdainfully scanned Xu Jiayi, whose eyes were filled with tremendous jealousy . With a wave of her hands, all the pills inside the furnace were lifted into the air . They shone brightly in the sky above the courtyard like stars . In an instant, the entire courtyard was filled with the faint smell of herbs, and the pleasant smell filled everyone’s noses and soothed their hearts .

“I’m sorry to disappoint you again . ” Feng Tianlan curled her lips into a smile as she looked at Feng Xiupei . The others were more shocked than ever .

These pills weren’t worth anything to her . She had spent the past month in the Forbidden Area making pills, and these were merely the ones she’d used to hone her skills .

Feng Xiupei couldn’t resist looking at the sky filled with numerous Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills . The smell made her excited . These were really Grade 8 Spirit Gathering Pills . If she had so many on hand, she could train a strong group of fighters to be her personal bodyguards!
