Chapter 78 Theory 1

  Xiaoyao, now that there's no way to break through, he'll continue to improve his physical condition. His body is the most perfect it has ever been, with the strongest and toughest bones and muscles. Once he enters true cultivation, his speed will be absolutely terrifying. The current speeds of Gu Xing and Bai are child's play compared to him.

  Of course, the premise is that he can break through. Although his physical condition has improved to perfection and his meridians have been tempered by him, the problem is that the sequelae of his walking into madness still exist, making it impossible for him to break through this basic state.

  However, Xiao Yao was not in a hurry, not only because he could catch up later, but also for the most important reason that he didn't need such powerful martial arts at present.

  He's just a small household servant, and having his current level of martial arts skills is more than enough. Anyone who can take him down wouldn't bother with someone as insignificant as him, and even if they did, Xiao Yao would still have ways to escape. Although he may not be able to win in a fight, he's still capable of protecting himself.

  He's quite skilled and has many life-saving skills, it's really not easy to take him down!!

  Xiaoyao's current goal is to cultivate Gu Xing, making him a top martial artist, and also bring along the young mistress. Coincidentally, he'll also mention Mo Mo and Nan Gong Su Xin among others.

  Xiaoyao thinks that becoming the number one in the world is meaningless. If he can make Gu Xing become the number one, then that would be a real achievement!!

  At that time, I will become the number one housekeeper in the world. Think about it, which housekeeper can cultivate their master to become the number one in the world? I can do it, can you?

  A few days before departure, on an afternoon, Xylo hummed a little tune, ready to continue refining the elixir. He wanted to refine all the materials he had just obtained yesterday in the last few days, and this time, Xylo was much more serious.

  Because this time, what Xīao Yāo wants is more and of higher value, this time he will refine high-grade elixirs!

  Thanks to the affirmations from the previous times, especially with the strong support of Princess Ke Xin, the officials in charge no longer suspect Xiao Yao's use of medicine and satisfy all his requirements as long as they are not too excessive.

  Xiaoyao took the opportunity to obtain some high-grade materials and prepared to refine high-grade elixirs. If someone knew that Xiaoyao was going to refine high-grade elixirs, they would definitely be greatly surprised.

  It's not that there are no one who can refine high-grade elixirs in the Tianfeng country, but someone like Xiao Yao at his age is extremely rare, not just in the Tianfeng country, but also throughout the entire continent.

  The refinement of high-grade elixirs emphasizes the control of hand movements and fire temperatures, both of which require extremely high control skills that can only be mastered through many years of practice. The alchemists who refine high-grade elixirs are at least forty years old, and those who refine top-grade elixirs are even more difficult to master.

  At the same time, even if top-grade elixirs can be refined, there is a certain failure rate, and this rate is still very high, with up to seven or eight failures out of ten times.

  This is also because the technique and fire of top-grade elixirs have reached a very demanding level, and no one can perfectly grasp them without any deviation. Once there is a deviation, the elixir will basically be ruined.

  The materials for top-grade elixirs are the best, so the cost is naturally high. With such a high failure rate, it's no wonder that top-grade elixirs are extremely precious.

  Because of the above reasons, even if Xīao Yóu were to obtain these high-grade medicinal materials, no one would think that he would refine high-grade elixirs, but rather thought that he would use them to refine some low or mid-grade medicines.

  Low-to-medium-grade elixirs also use high-grade medicinal materials, in order to make the efficacy a bit better. At the same time, some medicinal materials are irreplaceable, regardless of which grade they are, and need to be used with this material.

  Moreover, Xīao Yáo had previously brought over some high-grade medicinal materials from his previous purchases. This way, not only could he confuse people about his formula, but also conceal his intention to refine high-grade elixirs.

  "Hey you, kid! Stop right there!"

  As Xiao Yao was humming a tune and strolling through the palace, a voice came over.

  He looked around casually and saw someone standing behind him at a distance, then continued humming the tune and moved forward.

  “……”

  It's one thing to pretend you can't see yourself, but just now you clearly saw me, yet still acted as if I was invisible. This left the visitor momentarily stunned, then filled with indignation.

  But this person was none other than the Fourth Prince, whom Xiao Yao had met once or twice before. In these three months, he hadn't encountered the Fourth Prince at all.

  "ROAR!!! You little brat, I told you to stop in your tracks! Did you hear me?!!" The Fourth Prince bellowed.

  Carefree continue to ignore, or move forward!!

  The fourth prince's face turned black as he flashed in front of Xiao Yao, angrily saying: "What do you mean by this!!"

  "What? ! What?" Xiao Yao's face was filled with confusion, as if he didn't understand what had just happened.

  "You dare to deceive me again! Deceive me until I'm invisible!" The fourth prince continued to rage.

  "No! I saw you, I've been seeing you all along." Xiao Yao shook his head, "My eyes haven't degenerated yet, my vision is still great!"

  "Is there something wrong with your ears? Didn't you hear me telling you to stop?" The Fourth Prince said coldly.

  "I heard it!" Xiang continued to say.

  "Why are you still walking?" The fourth prince asked, if you've seen and heard it, why are you still ignoring yourself and continuing to walk?

  "Why? Are you calling me?" Qiao Yu asked casually.

  "......" The fourth prince fell silent for a moment, "Is there anyone else here besides you and me? I'm naturally calling out to you!"

  "Oh, what's with the Fourth Prince?" Xiao Yao asked.

  "I heard that you've refined some elixirs, and the effects are quite good. Can you give me a few to try? Indeed, they're more effective than ordinary elixirs. Do you have any more? Give me a few hundred!" The Fourth Prince said.

  Although the fourth prince said that a few hundred was a bit too much, for this kind of pill, it's actually not considered many. Generally, this kind of pill can be used up in just a few days, and after a long time, more will be used.

  Unless one is really super rich, they usually use this kind of elixir to assist in practicing Qi, high-grade ones are too expensive and the efficacy is not easy to absorb, compared to the elixirs refined by Xiao Yao before.

  That's why low to mid-grade elixirs are the best-selling on the continent, and most alchemy families make a living off this model of thin profits with high sales volume, and these thin profits aren't even that low.

  In fact, the medicinal power of Xianyao's Dan medicine is better than ordinary ones and worse than high-grade ones. It can be absorbed by people at the same time, and there will be no waste, making it more suitable for cultivation.

  This is also why after taking Xianyao medicine, these people's strength suddenly soared, catching up with and surpassing others.

  At this time, no one understood that the elixir of carefree was not an ordinary exercise elixir. He had modified the formula and optimized it, so the effect was naturally a little better.

  "Sorry, I'm only in charge of refining. As for who it's given to, you should ask Miss Nangong. She's the one handling that." Xiangyao smiled and then pulled out Nangong Suixin as a shield.

  As a house servant, when encountering such things, they would definitely pull out a young lady like Nangong Suzi to resist.

  To put it bluntly, they should be the ones to take the blame. Who told them to give medicine to others and attract attention from other people!!

  Others may not know about his carefree cultivation, but as for Fourth Prince's identity, just ask around and you'll find out.

  "No need to ask, just refine it for me!" The Fourth Prince said coldly, his tone completely commanding, with a hint of disdain.

  This attitude is obvious even if you're stupid, the fourth prince's meaning is that as a small household servant, you should obediently listen to me, and I'm already giving you face by talking to you.

  The fourth prince never thought that Xiao Yao would refuse him, he felt it was impossible for someone like himself, a dignified prince, to be rejected by a mere small household servant.

  Naturally! Xī Yáng immediately gave out this answer, letting the Fourth Prince understand one thing, he was wrong!

  "In that case, I'm afraid I won't give you any of the elixir. If you want it, please ask your own alchemist to refine some for you." Xīu Yáo smiled and replied.

  "What do you mean?!" The fourth prince stared at Xiao Yao, as if he couldn't understand what Xiao Yao was saying.

  "Don't you understand? I've made it so clear, and you still don't get it. Are you really that stupid? Alas... If you become the king in the future, Tian Feng Country will be doomed!!"

  The fourth prince's face suddenly turned black, and he found that this little scoundrel Xiangyang was so impolite and bold, not only refusing his request but also daring to mock him.

  "Are you out of your mind?! Do you want to die?!"

  "Excuse me, Fourth Prince, why are you saying this? Which law of the Tianfeng Kingdom have I broken, and why do you say I don't want to live? Is it just because I refused you?" Xiao Yao said rudely.

  If it were another prince or princess, Xiao Yao might have been more tactful and wouldn't have made people feel like he was rejecting them, but rather that he just couldn't do it. In this regard, Xiao Yao absolutely could have done better.

  The fourth prince in front of him was different, his methods were carefree and he didn't like them very much. What he disliked the most was that he actually dared to cross his own boss, which made him very unhappy. His boss's enemy was his own enemy, and he wouldn't be polite about it.

  "Good, that's great, your courage is commendable, but you've forgotten where this place is!" The fourth prince's face turned black and white in turns, changing unpredictably.

  "Isn't this just a palace? Is there something different about it?" Xiao Yao's face was full of indifference.

  "Now that you know this is the palace, you should also know that killing you would be as easy as squashing an ant, and no one would say a word!" The fourth prince sneered, with a sinister smile.

  "Nonsense, I know, but I'm sure someone will stop you! Besides, I'm not necessarily an ant." Xīao said calmly.

  "That's just a small insect, much bigger than an ant!" The fourth prince sneered.

  Does it make a difference? They're all just goods that can be killed with one kick.
