Battle Through the Heavens: I'm Just an Alchemist

Chapter 63 Under Control

A mere sixth-grade alchemist? He's still under my control.

Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Nangong Wuxin, who was covering his forehead, and felt incredibly proud.

Sure enough, although Chen Xiaoxiao was only a fourth-grade alchemist, her true talent lay in being a teacher and guiding other alchemists to success.

Sure enough, her eldest disciple had already advanced to the sixth-grade alchemist before he was even twenty years old, with a 100% success rate.

You'd be hard-pressed to find another teacher this excellent across the entire Dou Qi Continent, right?

"Oh, right, I have two more body shaping pills here. Parents, you can each take one. Even though you've stopped growing, taking them will still whiten your skin, make it better, and make you look younger."

Nangong Wuxin took out two body-beautifying pills from his amethyst storage ring and handed them to his parents.

The couple didn't take their son's first words seriously, but when they heard the rest, their eyes lit up instantly.

"Wuxin, what is the real function of your Body Shaping Pill? It seems to be a fifth-grade pill, right? Can you simplify it and just say it has a whitening effect?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Wuxin slapped his forehead: "The true function of the Body Shaping Pill is to make some bodies that have not yet fully grown grow in the most perfect and symmetrical direction. Mother is talking about the Whitening Pill. I have already written down the pill formula. Among the fourth-grade pills, it is relatively easy to refine, but the medicinal materials are relatively rare. They cannot be obtained here in the Jia Ma Empire."

Nangong Jue took the pill formula, glanced at it, and then handed it to Chen Xiaoxiao, who was standing to the side.

While Chen Xiaoxiao was reading the prescription, Nangong Jue waved his hand, signaling his daughters-in-law to sit down, and at the same time swallowed the beauty pills in both hands.

After carefully examining myself, I found that I didn't feel anything special, except that my body felt a little lighter.

"Yes, it's not that difficult. I'm about 60-70% confident I can refine it. As for the materials, it depends on which merchant caravan in the empire goes to the Black Corner Region."

Chen Xiaoxiao nodded, opened her eyes, and saw Yan Lingji's big, darting eyes. She smiled and said, "Go on, Wuxin, take your wives for a stroll around the city. The city has changed a lot in the past two years."

"Okay, Mother."

"Master, Madam, we're leaving."

"Wu Xin, you've never liked carrying money since you were little. Here's a card with 50,000 gold coins. You can use it."

"Dad, I have a gold coin card worth three million on me."

Despite saying that, Nangong Wuxin's actions betrayed his words as he put away the gold coin card.

He's his own person, and he can't just take what his father gave him, right? This really hurts his feelings!

As he walked out of his home, he encountered many clansmen, and Nangong Wuxin greeted them one by one with a smile on his face.

"Young Master is back?"

"Yes, I'm back."

"Did the young master graduate from that academy?"

"No, I came back on leave this time because I have some things to take care of."

"Young Master, are these ladies beside you the young mistresses?"

"Hmm...we'll get married when we graduate and come back."

"Young Master..."

Fortunately, Nangong Wuxin has a good memory; otherwise, he would have forgotten all these people after returning from his trips these past two years.

Zi Nu and Nangong Jing, who had come out with Nangong Wuxin, were still immersed in the moment when Nangong Wuxin had just acknowledged their identities, their faces beaming with happy smiles.

Yan Lingji's behavior was even more obvious; she followed Nangong Wuxin with a silly grin.

Arriving on the street, looking at the drastically changed sides, Nangong Wuxin hesitated for a moment, then randomly chose a direction and walked out.

A handsome guy leading three beautiful girls is sure to turn heads wherever they go.

Soon, well-informed merchants recognized Nangong Wuxin.

"Mr. Heartless, you're back!"

"Are you Mr. Wuxin? Please take these as a token of my gratitude!"

"I want to thank you, Mr. Wuxin, you saved my life!"

"..."

There was no way around it; as time went on, more and more people were bound to benefit from the Anning Water. Nangong Wuxin walked around the street without spending a single gold coin, but the four of them had their hands full of things.

After walking around the city, Nangong Wuxin told them about the Anning Pill as they went.

"This Dou Qi Continent may seem to have a clear hierarchy and a system where the strong are respected, but in reality, there are still many established rules. Apart from the very special moral low point of the Black Corner Region, there are some moral standards in other places."

"It may seem foolish for the master to use Tranquility Water to win people's hearts, but that's because some fools can only see the clear hierarchy of the strong. Even those Dou Sheng powerhouses, or even Dou Di powerhouses, still need to live normal lives and have interpersonal relationships."

"Moreover, no one, no matter how bad, wants to be surrounded by people as bad as themselves. Everyone hopes to be surrounded by good people, even if that good person is pretending. But as long as they are willing to pretend, and there is no conflict of interest, that good person is someone who can be trusted."

"A group of people who are not even fighters, seemingly useless, whose combined strength is no match for a single Fighting King."

"But when these people unite their hearts, they can unleash a power even more terrifying than that of a Dou Huang expert."

"Not everyone in this world is strong; 99 percent of people are, strictly speaking, weak."

"So, in this situation, which would you rather help: someone who is willing to take real action to win people's hearts, or someone who only believes in power?"

Even if we put it humbly, if one day we encounter trouble and want to seek help from a stronger person, wouldn't a good reputation give us some points?

"Many things that seem to have a huge impact may actually be things that the people involved didn't think too much about at the time, and were just unintentional decisions."

"If you hear that a person recognized by countless others is in trouble and asks for your help, this strong person will most likely grant you a meeting and lend a hand."

"Some things, once done, are done; that's better than some people who don't do anything at all."

"This is true righteousness, the power that makes many uninformed people instinctively choose to follow you the moment they hear your name!"

"As expected of our master, his plans are so far-reaching..."

Based on her knowledge and understanding of the Dou Qi Continent, Zi Nu carefully analyzed Nangong Wuxin's act of revealing the recipe for the Anning Pill.

In the end, it turned out that this seemingly foolish move actually turned out to be incredibly profitable!

As long as the Anning Pill on the Dou Qi Continent continues to be available, the Nangong family's banner can be used indefinitely.

"Master is so amazing!"

After listening to Zi Nu's analysis, Yan Ling Ji looked up in surprise and stared at Nangong Wu Xin.

Zi Nu and Nangong Jing looked on with admiration. No wonder she was their master!

"Hehe, don't overthink those things. In some matters, we really have to rely on ourselves."
