I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 62: My apprentice can easily refine this kind of medicine!

"It's finally finished."

Gu Heng looked at the large iron pot filled with light blue medicinal liquid and was in a very good mood.

This medicinal liquid is too easy to make.

When he was improving his proficiency in "medical skills," he did it step by step, starting with the simplest ones. These medicines didn't require any special attention to the heat when making them. The further he progressed, the higher the requirements for heat control became, and he also had to consider the timing of adding the medicinal herbs.

However, his "medical skills" are now superb. The techniques of alchemy have been integrated into his mind as his proficiency has increased, and he can't forget them at all.

He prepared these medicinal liquids in the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. Moreover, their effects are thousands of times better than that damn "Azure Spirit Liquid"!

Of course, every single drop can be diluted with water, and the effect after dilution will definitely be better than that of Qingling Liquid.

Now it's time to show those two young ladies what he's capable of, and let them know that he's a professional alchemist and physician!

Gu Heng walked out of the back room with a slight smile, and then sensed the unfriendly atmosphere in the front hall.

Qin Yiyao stood with her arms crossed, looking like a haughty and arrogant young lady, while Xiao Mu and Xiao Yu, like maids, trembled as they endured her condescending gaze.

This girl actually has a way of intimidating people?

"Yi Yao, don't make things difficult for them."

Gu Heng came out, his face slightly reproachful.

These two girls had just escaped death from the hands of assassins, and no one knew how they had offended Qin Yiyao. But Qin Yiyao was still in shock, and this girl was already putting on airs and trying to scare her.

"Oh."

Qin Yiyao pursed her thin lips, then restrained herself a bit. However, in her opinion, some people just need to be taught a lesson, otherwise who knows what might happen.

"Also, I let a mouse escape."

Qin Yiyao couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she recalled that she had only managed to intercept and kill one of the Qingfeng Baoxing assassins who had escaped from the net on the street.

Two useless cultivators at the second level of Core Formation, not even worthy of participating in the assassination, only fit to watch from the sidelines and relay messages. Even so, she couldn't finish the battle quickly, and instead gave one of them an opportunity to use underhanded tactics and escape.

The more Qin Yiyao thought about it, the more she felt she needed to speed up her body-refining process. Once she quickly mastered the contents of the "Body" book, her cultivation path would face fewer obstacles and she would avoid many pitfalls. Her master had already done enough for her; it was time to let her talent shine!

"They ran away? Then we don't need to worry about them."

Gu Heng was wondering why she wasn't sleeping, but it turns out there were mice.

Even such a strong-willed, stubborn, and sharp-tongued girl has things she's afraid of. He thought for a moment and realized he should get some rat poison and clean the clinic regularly.

"Senior Gu, oh no, Young Master Gu..."

Xiaoyu then stood up shakily. Qin Yiyao's words had caused a huge upheaval in her heart. It turned out that the owner of this clinic was not an ordinary person, but a powerful cultivator who lived in seclusion in the city. In fact, what she had said earlier was quite offensive.

This frightened her quite a bit.

But then Xiaoyu thought again. Since the disciple had said that he had come to live in seclusion and did not want to reveal his identity or be treated as a powerful figure, she immediately changed her address and continued to call him "Young Master" instead of "Senior".

Although they said that, Xiaoyu and Xiaomu still felt some awe. The strong are respected, and they were really too weak to be anything but.

"Don't be so nervous, come on, follow me to the back."

Gu Heng's gaze swept over Qin Yiyao, and he immediately realized that the two girls must have been frightened by Qin Yiyao.

But now that the medicine is ready, we should let them see it.

They arrived at the back room, and before they could even think about the simple and unpretentious furnishings, Xiaoyu covered her mouth in shock, staring in disbelief at the large pot in front of Gu Heng. The entire pot was filled with a light blue liquid, and a faint, refreshing fragrance wafted from it!

She had never smelled such a strange and fragrant medicinal scent before!

Moreover, he used this ordinary large pot instead of the special medicine cauldron used by alchemists!

"Young Master Gu, what kind of spiritual medicine is this?" Xiao Yu and Xiao Mu were naturally shocked, because even from a light sniff, they could tell that the essence of this spiritual medicine was far stronger than that of the Azure Spirit Liquid!

"It doesn't have a name, but I'm too lazy to name it. I just refined it to let you know that the Azure Spirit Liquid is really nothing special."

Gu Heng slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

Hearing such calm yet domineering words, Xiaoyu dared not be negligent. Before she could say anything, Gu Heng had Qin Yiyao fetch a basin of cold water, then scooped up a little of the spiritual liquid from the pot and dripped it into the basin.

Just one drop of the medicine turned the entire basin of water into a light blue color. To the astonishment of the two women, they realized that the cold water was rapidly surging with medicinal power. In just over ten breaths, it became another basin of "medicinal liquid"!

This……

Is it still possible to do this?

Although they are not alchemists, the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop has them. As the guild leader's personal maids, they have seen the potions and pills made by alchemists. They have never heard of a potion that can be turned into a healing potion by simply dropping a drop of the liquid into water!

Gu Heng took a jade bottle—something he usually kept on hand—and filled it with some light blue liquid from the basin, handing it to Xiao Yu.

"Why don't you compare these two potions and see which one is better?"

Xiaoyu was taken aback. She looked at Gu Heng, only to see him looking relaxed, as if he really had just asked her to test the medicine.

"Yes……"

Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and took the jade bottle from Gu Heng's hand. The cool medicinal power made her feel instantly refreshed.

This blue liquid is definitely more potent than the Azure Spirit Liquid from the Azure Wind Treasure Shop!

Moreover, its efficacy far surpasses the low-grade healing medicines currently sold by their Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop! As for the difficulty of refining it…

This young master Gu is such a powerful figure. His disciple just gave the two of them a good thrashing. For a powerful figure like him, refining low-level healing medicine is probably a simple task that anyone with hands can do.

Seemingly seeing through Xiaoyu's thoughts, Gu Heng pulled Qin Yiyao in front of him and patted her head.

"My apprentice can learn how to make this potion in a single day."

Hmm? What is Master doing?

She has never studied alchemy.

Alchemy requires a lot of talent, and Qin Yiyao knew she didn't have that talent.

Qin Yiyao looked at him with a puzzled expression, but Gu Heng simply gave her a look that said, "Don't worry, Master knows what he's doing," which she understood immediately.

These words undoubtedly dealt Xiaoyu a huge blow. She looked at Gu Heng for a long time before finally lowering her eyes.
