Female Transformation: I Run Away When I See the Female Lead

The old dean did not give up easily. He decided to conduct a search himself, intending to find the formation master he admired so much.

Afterwards, the old dean's figure shuttled through every corner of Zuoyan College, from the library to the training ground, from the student dormitory to the teacher's office, and even went deep into the dense forest deep in the college.

However, no matter how carefully he searched, the mysterious master of formations seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth and never showed up.

Bai Jin, who had already left, had no idea that the college was looking for someone, and he was even less aware of the old dean's search and admiration for him.

After a period of futile search, the old dean had to give up the search temporarily because Jiang Yunjiu provided the formation notes given by Bai Jin.

Then we came to Tongcheng and found it very lively and novel.

Standing in front of a clothing store, I found many styles of clothes after entering, so I picked out a few and prepared to check out. However, I found that I had already given all my things to Jiang Yunjiu, and now I had no money.

The waiter who was checking out the bill thought Bai Jin didn't have the money to act like a wealthy man and was about to chase him away. The boss who came downstairs saw Bai Jin's sharp face and the simple, slightly worn clothes, and he couldn't hide his uneasiness.

The boss went to the checkout counter and stopped the waiter's behavior.

Seeing that the boss had a kind face, he plucked up his courage and proposed to the boss the idea of paying with pills instead of spirit stones. At the same time, he took out a pill with a warm color from his arms and handed it to the boss.

The boss's eyes turned from doubt to curiosity. She took the pill and looked at it carefully.

Although she is not an alchemist, she has been doing business in Tongcheng for many years and has some understanding of the basic value of elixirs.

She noticed the danwen flowing on the surface of the pill, which seemed to be of good quality.

After considering for a moment, the boss decided to give the customer a chance. After all, a high-quality pill is far more precious than a spirit stone.

"Okay, customer, I'll give you this chance." The boss finally spoke, with a barely perceptible smile in his voice.

"However, the value of this pill still needs to be appraised by the city's alchemists. If it is of excellent quality, these clothes will be considered as a gift to you."

I nodded when I heard that, and a warm feeling suddenly surged in my heart. I was so exaggerated that I almost cried, "What a good person!"

The boss's decision gave me a temporary relief. I followed the boss's wife to the second floor of the store, which was decorated quite elegantly, completely different from the noisy market atmosphere on the first floor.

Sitting by the window, looking out at the bustling streets outside.

Soon, the alchemist hurried over. He was a middle-aged man wearing a robe unique to alchemists and a badge on his chest that symbolized a fourth-grade alchemist.

Lin Wu took the pill, placed it carefully in his palm, and observed it carefully.

After a long time, he looked away from the pill, his face showing surprise, but he shook his head.

He explained to the proprietress, "This pill is extraordinary. I've never seen such exquisite patterns on it, and the spiritual power contained within is unfathomable. With my knowledge, it's difficult for me to determine its specific grade. I've sent a message to my master, asking him to come and take a look."

These words surprised everyone present. The value of a pill that even a fourth-grade alchemist couldn't identify could be imagined.

Bai Jin's heart was also in turmoil. He never thought that a pill he casually made would cause such a big response.

While waiting for Lin Wu's master to arrive, he chatted with the proprietress and learned that her name was Su Qing. This shop was passed down from her ancestors. It specializes in defensive clothing and is the most famous one in Tongcheng.

When Lin Wu's master, a white-haired old man, slowly walked into the shop, the whole atmosphere became solemn.

The old man's gaze was as sharp as a torch, inspiring awe at the mere sight of him. He picked up the pill and examined it carefully, occasionally letting out a cry of amazement. Finally, after a moment's hesitation, the old man said to Bai Jin, "Young man, the pill you hold in your hand is a pinnacle seventh-grade masterpiece. It's an extremely rare elixir across the entire continent. Did you refine it yourself?"

The old man's comments moved everyone present. A peak seventh-grade elixir was already something to be admired in the world of alchemists.

The golden elixir pattern was unheard of and unseen, which undoubtedly indicated that Bai Jin had extraordinary talent and potential in alchemy. As soon as the old man finished speaking, everyone looked at Bai Jin with envy and enthusiasm.

If he nodded and admitted that the pill was made by his own hands, and also admitted that the pill was made casually, wouldn't that be equivalent to showing off publicly and attracting hatred?

You can't do such a tasteless thing! Okay, although I am also a person of the same level and no quality, but in this situation, it is better to keep a low profile.

So he quickly responded: "No, this is given to me by my master. I am grateful for your kindness."

"Oh? Who is your master, the alchemist?" the old man asked curiously.

The old man thought to himself: Which good friend dared to secretly refine such an extraordinary elixir without telling me?

I thought: There are only five seventh-grade alchemists. If I just mention any one of their names, he will definitely know them. Why would I have to invent a non-existent character?

"My master's name is Wu Liu, and he's an inconspicuous alchemist." He made up a name casually.

When the old man heard this, a barely perceptible gleam flashed in his eyes, and he immediately expressed his desire to buy the elixir from Bai Jin.

"Since this elixir was made by your master, I am willing to pay a high price for it. No matter how many spirit stones you want, just ask, and I will do my best to satisfy you."

However, he politely declined the old man's kindness, turned to look at Su Qing, and said with a smile: "I have already promised Boss Su this pill. This pill belongs to Boss Su."

Su Qing was a little surprised and touched when she heard this.

She originally just wanted a fair trade and never expected Bai Jin to be so generous.

She thought about it and finally decided: "In that case, these clothes can be regarded as my return gift for witnessing this extraordinary elixir. The deal between you and me is over now."

I could only nod in agreement, and both sides ended the exchange amicably.

The old man was still staring at the pill, but in the end, I made a deal with him, it was just a pill.

When leaving the store, he took the storage bag and gave it to the waiter, asking him to pass it to Boss Su.

No one expected that not long after, Su Qing encountered a sudden chase, and it was the pills left by Bai Jin that saved her life.

The news of the elixir with golden dan patterns spread quickly throughout Tongcheng like a spring breeze, and even spread to the surrounding cities.

When alchemists from all over the country heard the news, they were all shocked that an unprecedented alchemist had appeared and could actually refine a seventh-grade top-level elixir with golden elixir patterns.

They packed their bags and rushed to Tongcheng impatiently, eager to see the legendary golden elixir and the apprentice who refined it with their own eyes.

However, when they arrived in Tongcheng exhausted, they found that Bai Jin had already left.

In disappointment, they placed their hopes on the old man, hoping to get the legendary elixir from him.

But the old man obviously regarded this pill as a treasure, fearing that it would fall into the hands of others, so he hid it very secretly. Even his fellow alchemists could not easily see its true appearance.

Faced with the pleadings of the alchemists, the old man finally gave in and proposed a condition of exchange - anyone who wanted to witness the golden elixir pattern with their own eyes must exchange it for an elixir of the fifth grade or above.

This news immediately caused an uproar among the alchemists. Some were indignant at the old man's greed, some worried that they might never see the opportunity again. Still others gritted their teeth and began to search for rare materials, preparing to refine an elixir that would impress the old man.
