<h4>Chapter 445: Ling Feng''s Eminence!</h4>


    Undoubtedly, Su Qingxuan was a very beautiful woman. Moreover, her role as a mentor always gave Ling Feng a sense of purity and sanctity about her.


    Now, Ling Feng suddenly discovered that Su Qingxuan could also disy a youthful and coquettish anger, which left him quite astonished and rooted to the spot.


    Su Qingxuan also realized her slightpse inposure. She quickly released Ling Feng’s arm, her face slightly flushed, and said through gritted teeth, "A-Actually, I want to ask you for a favor."


    "Uh..." Ling Feng snapped back to reality, awkwardly smiling as he replied, "Mentor Su, whatever you need, just say the word."


    "Really?" Su Qingxuan''s eyes sparkled with a hint of excitement. "Then I''ll take that as a yes! Follow me!"


    With that, Su Qingxuan led Ling Feng into the courtyard. Inside was a very serene loft, and behind the loft, there was a stone chamber. Ling Feng was very familiar with thisyout; it was clearly an alchemy room.


    Su Qingxuan''s alchemy room was rtively simple. Itcked many ancient books and various materials, but it was meticulously clean. She had also used some heat-resistant and fireproof nts for decoration, giving the room a refined and elegant style, much more so than the more rugged setup thatYan Cangtian has going on.


    Quickly walking to the desk in the outer hall of the alchemy room, Su Qingxuan spread out a scroll on the table. Only then did she look up at Ling Feng and, biting her lip, said, "Chief Ling,e take a look."


    "Oh..." Ling Feng sniffed and walked to the other side of the desk before taking the scroll and carefully reading it.


    It turned out to be a form for a fifth-tier high-grade medicinal pill. Although not a high tier, it was indeed quite rare; Ling Feng had never seen it before.


    Moreover, the scroll''s paper was slightly yellowed and had several holes in it. It seemed to be iplete.


    In the nk parts of the scroll, there were some delicate handwritten notes which were clearly Su Qingxuan recording her guesses and supplements. But towards the end, it was all question marks.


    As Ling Feng read, he couldn''t help but smile.


    It turned out that Su Qingxuan had been failing continuously for over a month. She had even tried four times in the past few days, wasting all the materials she had prepared. This left her very distressed since she initially only had enough for five attempts.


    Seeing the smile on Ling Feng’s face, Su Qingxuan couldn''t help but snort softly while frowning as she said, "Hey, just because I''ve failed several times doesn’t mean you canugh at me!"


    With that, she snatched the scroll away in a huff, saying, "Forget it, I don''t need your help!"


    Ling Feng was taken aback, thinking how unpredictable women were, whether they were students or mentors.


    With a wry smile, Ling Feng quickly exined, "Mentor Su, I didn''t mean tough at you. I just think that with your dedication to studying the pill form, you will surely be a grandmaster in alchemy someday."


    "Really?" Su Qingxuan blinked skeptically.


    "Really. When have I ever lied?" Ling Feng chuckled awkwardly and added, "This Purple Light Dust Pill is something I''ve never heard of before. I should be thanking you for letting me see such a precious form."


    "What’s the use of it being precious? Three of the ingredients are missing, and several of the necessary fire control techniques are iplete. No matter how I try, I can''t get the pill to form sessfully."


    Su Qingxuan pouted. "My father said that if I couldplete this form before he returned, he would teach me a high-tier fire control technique. But it’s been over three months now, and I still can''t solve this problem. I can''t ask President Hong for help either, or my father will know I cheated."


    She stuck out her tongue, looking like a little girl who had done something wrong.


    Seeing Su Qingxuan''s adorable and charming demeanor, Ling Feng smiled lightly. "I don''t have any immediate ideas either, but I can research the pill form with you, Mentor."


    "That''s great, as long as you''re willing to help me," Su Qingxuan replied with a cheerful smile.


    "Alright, I''ll give it a try." Ling Feng picked up a brush from the inkstone and began analyzing the interactions and transformations of the medicinal properties in the pill form. After briefly contemting, he quickly wrote down three ingredients.


    "Mentor Su, please take a look."


    "Huh? So fast?" Su Qingxuan was startled by Ling Feng''s speed. She leaned in to see the ingredients he had written and eximed, "Moonlight Bamboo, Moling Flower, Purple Morning Dew!"


    Her eyes widened. "But Ling Feng, I''ve already tried these ingredients."


    "Yes, you have, but it might be a matter of proportions and the age of the materials."


    Ling Feng pointed to Su Qingxuan''s record of her second attempt at refining the pill and said, "You used three-hundred-year-old Moonlight Bamboo. Actually, Moonlight Bamboo is best at sixty years. Beyond that, it loses the true spiritual essence of the moon, making it unable to neutralize the potent yang attributes of several other ingredients in the form."


    "Is there such a thing?" Su Qingxuan blinked. She had never seen such a description in any literature or books.


    "Possibly," Ling Feng said with a faint smile. "And for the Moling Flower and Purple Morning Dew, you used too much of both. Alchemy is about bncing yin and yang,plementing the five elements. If you adhere to this principle,bined with extensive experimentation, you can elevate from merelypleting a pill form to perfecting it.


    "After all, even ancient pill forms aren''t necessarily the best, right?"


    "Oh..." Su Qingxuan was taken aback. She realized she had only beenpleting the pill form, whereas Ling Feng had already elevated his thinking to perfecting it!


    <i>It’s no wonder he’s the chief honorary elder, while I am only a fourth-tier alchemist. This is the difference between us!</i>


    Ling Feng then swiftlypleted the entire pill form and said, "I think this should work. Mentor Su, do you want to give it a try?"


    Su Qingxuan''s eyes were fixed on Ling Feng. Seeing him confidently and decisively write down the form, she couldn''t help but be impressed. <i>This guy, iming "it might work," is certainly a good actor!</i>


    "Uh..." Ling Feng scratched his nose, feeling uneasy under Su Qingxuan''s gaze. He awkwardly smiled. "Is there something wrong?"


    Su Qingxuan gave Ling Feng a sidelong nce, bit her lip, picked up the scroll, and read it carefully. She couldn''t help but praise, "So that''s it? The fire control process can change like this. No wonder I couldn''t figure it out!"


    Seeing Su Qingxuan''s excitement, Ling Feng couldn''t help but smile faintly. It seemed Su Qingxuan had considerable talent in alchemy to be able to understand the key points at a nce.


    After a while, Su Qingxuan finally calmed down a bit. She put away the scroll and said, "Alright, I''ll give it a try. Ling Feng, keep an eye on me, and if something goes wrong, you must remind me."


    "Of course."


    Ling Feng nodded. At that moment, he felt as if their roles had reversed—he was the mentor, and Su Qingxuan was the student.


    <i>Interesting. This is really interesting!</i>
