Xu Fu stood beside the cement platform in a daze, still not recovering from the huge bang.

He just wanted to make the spark bigger, how could there be an explosion?

He looked at the Imperial Master who was walking towards him in a daze.

The buzzing sound in his ears made it difficult for him to hear the words of the Imperial Master.

Did he screw up?

Can the Grand Master still accept him as his disciple?

Su Jinyue walked quickly to Xu Fu, removed the rubble from his head, and looked at the disheveled old man with admiration in her eyes.

"This is truly a great achievement! Xu Fu, what do you want?"

Xu Fu shook his head and slapped his ears with his hands.

Seeing him like this, Su Jinyue knew that he had tinnitus caused by the shock, so she was not in a hurry. Instead, she returned to her original place and waited for everyone to recover.

The people watching around were all affected to varying degrees, and were now patting each other and adjusting their clothes.

"What is this, Master Imperial Master? Is this the gunpowder you mentioned before?"

Gongshu Yang was the first to react. He anxiously came to Su Jinyue and asked about the power of this thing.

"Is it the kind of gunpowder that can blow up mountains and clear roads? And can it also be used as a long-range attack weapon?"

As expected of a weapons expert, he hit the nail on the head.

Su Jinyue nodded slightly, "Gongshuzi is indeed perceptive. This substance is indeed gunpowder."

She glanced at the crowd and said slowly, "This thing can break mountains and shatter rocks. If you encounter a high mountain obstacle, you no longer need to dig manually, which can save countless manpower."

When everyone heard this, they all looked amazed.

They thought of more.

The Mohists wanted to use gunpowder and cement to quickly build roads and bridges.

Xiang Liqu was thinking about the imperial mausoleum that his father was in charge of, and he could use this thing to speed up the excavation of the mountain.

Gongshu Yang naturally thought that gunpowder was extremely powerful. How could it be used on the battlefield to better turn the tide of the war?

However, the Minister of the Imperial Household Cai Yan was smiling particularly happily as he was thinking about how to use this incident to get rewards for his subordinates from the emperor.

Xu Fu had recovered by then. He stepped forward, bowed respectfully to Su Jinyue, and said, "Master Imperial Master, I have no other requests. I only wish to continue following the Immortal Master, become his disciple, delve into the study of these divine objects, and serve the Qin Empire."

Su Jinyue raised her eyebrows.

Just want to be her disciple?

"Cough cough!"

She cleared her throat twice, raised her head proudly, and nodded her chin.

"Okay, this master will accept you as his disciple. In a few days, you will perform the ceremony of becoming his disciple together with the eldest disciple."

Xu Fu was overjoyed. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed deeply to Su Jinyue, saying loudly: "Disciple, I will obey Master's orders and concentrate on cultivation and be friendly to my fellow disciples."

At this moment, he had no time to think about asking who took away his position as the first disciple.

The Grand Master finally agreed to accept him as his disciple, and he was so excited that he felt dizzy.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Ou, who was watching from the side, immediately pushed the little boy beside him and knelt in front of Su Jinyue.

"Master Imperial Master, please accept his order. He has always been intelligent and eager to learn. He will surely study diligently and live up to your teachings."

Su Jinyue looked at Mr. Ou's head full of white hair, and then at Zhi's longing eyes.

Well, it’s because she is in a good mood today.

"Okay, are you willing to be my third apprentice?"

"Yes! I'm willing!"

The little boy was so happy that he was incoherent and kowtowed repeatedly.

Seeing that the Imperial Master was so easy to talk to today, the alchemists nearby came forward one by one and knelt in front of Su Jinyue.

"Master Imperial Master, please accept us as well!"

"Yes! Master Imperial Master, we will certainly be diligent, follow your instructions, and learn from you with an open mind!"

"We are willing to follow the Grand Master, inherit the skills, and promote the Master's teachings. If we violate this oath, heaven and earth will be held responsible."

This one.

Damn!

Su Jinyue tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth and spoke in a profound tone.

"Since you have requested so sincerely, I will make an exception and accept you as my disciples in a few days."

The alchemists looked at each other excitedly and kowtowed loudly.

"Yes, Disciple Jin will obey Master's orders and will make good preparations!"

Watch until the clouds open and the moon shines!

They finally passed the test of the National Master.

Their hard work over the past few months was worth it. They worked diligently on alchemy every day, their faces turned red and their arms developed muscles.

"Woo..."

I don’t know which alchemist it was, but he sobbed sadly, which resonated with everyone.

This year has been really difficult for them!

In the past, one only needed to stand there with an air of immortality and chant some profound Taoist spells, without having to go through so much physical labor.

"Woo...Ah~"

Su Jinyue's forehead twitched as she looked at her disciples who were hugging each other.

What is this for?

Crying with joy?

Her family doesn't like delicate old men!

"Don't cry! Disciples, be manly!"

"Yes, Master, disciples will not cry!"

The alchemists who had just become disciples of the national master immediately wiped the tears from their faces, tidied their appearance, and turned into their immortal appearance again.

Right, that’s what it tastes like!

"You must work together to quickly research the effectiveness of this recipe at different ratios."

Xu Fu stepped out of the group, and with the demeanor of a senior brother, he bowed and said, "Yes, Master, disciples obey your command!"

Su Jinyue nodded with satisfaction.

"The formula and production process of this gunpowder must be strictly controlled and must not fall into the wrong hands."

Cai Yan hurried forward and assured, "Don't worry, Master Imperial Master, what happened today will never be spread outside."

"it is good!"

Su Jinyue turned around with confidence and walked towards the door of the Shaofu.

She couldn't wait to tell her good news to her great daddy!

This is gunpowder!

A powerful tool for mining!

With it, the mining of various mineral deposits can be accelerated.

Coal! Oil!

This is the beginning!

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. When the carriage stopped at the palace, Su Jinyue quickly dismounted and rode quickly. Her steps became faster and faster, and finally she was running very fast.

"Great daddy!"

"Father!"

"Good news! There's good news!"

Ying Zheng, who was reviewing memorials in the Qinzheng Hall, faintly heard San'er's voice.

He slowly put down the brush in his hand and listened attentively.

"Father, I have good news!"

Yes, it was San'er shouting.

ah~

This child is becoming more and more outrageous.

There are so many people in the palace. If someone hears and spreads it, I will be criticized by those old men again.

Never mind, I will protect her when the time comes.

Su Jinyue rushed all the way into the hall.

"Father! The gunpowder is ready! Xu Fu and the others have made the gunpowder!"

"what?!"

Ying Zheng stood up from the dragon throne and walked quickly to Su Jinyue.

"Say it again! What happened?!"

Su Jinyue's eyes lit up as she shouted, "Gunpowder! That's the gunpowder used to blow up mountains and roads! It worked! I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Good! Hahaha! Great goodness! Great goodness!"

Ying Zheng walked around the hall excitedly, clapping his hands from time to time.

"Great! Gunpowder! It's actually gunpowder!"

He thought it would take several years to develop this thing.

I didn’t expect it to be done in just one year!

Xu Fu, ah Xu Fu!

He Ying Zheng decided to spare his life.

"Announce the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers!"
