776. Choosing His Son-in-law (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Zhao Yufei lowered her head, feeling a bit uncertain in heart. She just picked him randomly to play this drama with her. She really was not clear of this guy’s background. Maybe she really should get him investigated.
Zhao Yufei suddenly remembered that the potion shop was suddenly opened, many potions were xuan class, and even some rare ones. But, anyhow, things had happened.
Zheng Xuan and Mo Yi hid in a corner, “Except Zhao Haotian, there are two earth class guests.”
“Two?” Mo Yi’s brows furrowed.
“Don’t worry too much.” Zheng Xuan comforted him.
Mo Yi nodded, “I know.”
“Game on...”
Wang Chengfeng and Mo Fei’s potion table was placed with five portions of star herbs and a furnace.
Mo Fei and Wang Chengfeng began at the same time. While refining the potion, Mo Fei was watching Wang Chengfeng’s progress with his soul force, always keeping pace with him.
“Chief Zhao, who is this Zheng Duojing? It seems he is good. But never heard of him before.” Wang He asked faintly.
“Elder Wang, I don’t know much about him. I’ve heard that he has been following his shifu for practice in seclusion.” Zhao Haotian smiled faintly.
Wang He said suspiciously, squinting, “Really? A hermit pharmacist? That’s really rare!”
Zhao Haotian narrowed his eyes. Usually advanced pharmacists would leech on to those big forces, only for a large supply of resources. Behind each advanced pharmacist was numerous wasted star herbs. Usually common cultivators couldn’t afford such huge consumptions at all. So Zheng Duojing’s identity remains to be discussed.
Fan Yu looked at those two down there, hands crossed, with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. No one could tell what he was thinking.
...
“Brother Wei, what is that Zheng Duojing’s background? Is he really an advanced xuan class pharmacist?” Asked an young man.
Wei Fan hummed lightly, “He is just a liar. A toad that wants to eat a swan. He even tries to fool my junior sister. He is so dead.”
“But it seems senior sister Zhao really cares about him.” Said a girl.
Wei Fan gave a cold snort, “She’d recognize his true face sooner or later.”
Mo Fei and Wang Chengfeng’s movements were very similar, even at the same pace.
“Is Zheng Duojing really a fraud? I can see that his movements are skillful, almost the same with Mr. Wang. He should be very capable.” Another young man said.
“Now it’s only the purification. All pharmacists can do that. No big deal.” Said Wei Fan disapprovingly.
Wang Chengfeng carefully purified the liquid, although he had been careful enough, still something went wrong. And the liquid immediately turned black.
He sighed with regret, and then looked toward Mo Fei’s side. Noticing that Wang Chengfeng failed, Mo Fei also made a mistake on purpose.
Seeing Mo Fei also failed, Wang Chengfeng instantly felt balanced.
Wei Fan looked at Mo Fei, with the corner of his mouth curved, “Liar! He failed!”
A girl said weakly, “Senior brother, Wang Chengfeng also failed.” Secretly thinking: Wang Chengfeng even failed before Mo Fei.
Wei Fan snorted, “Wang Chengfeng failed by accident, Zheng Duojing failed because he is not capable enough.”
The girl lowered her head and said nothing. She didn’t know much about potions, but, judging by Mo Fei’s fluid movements, she had a hunch that Mo Fei was not simple.
Both failed in the first round, but it didn’t cause a stir or what. Earth class masters refining advanced xuan class potions also had high failure rate, let alone it was only two xuan class. If they succeeded at the first time, that’d make it weird.
After clearing it, they started the second round.
The second round, Wang Chengfeng successfully completed the extraction of the liquid, but in during the refining, something went wrong.
After he failed, Mo Fei also failed.
After three rounds of failure, Wang Chengfeng looked a little nervous when it came to the fourth round.
But Mo Fei still looked quite calm.
“Elder Zhao, it seems your test is a bit too difficult. Seen from now, I guess neither of them can make it. Then your daughter will be in trouble.” Wang He said teasingly, stroking his beard.
Zhao Haotian smiled, “I don’t think so. There’s still a chance.”
“It’s been three rounds already.” Wang He said disapprovingly.
Zhao Haotian smiled, “Just wait and see. Maybe they both didn’t try their best in the first rounds.”
Wang He gave him an odd look, “On this kind of occasion, why wouldn’t try the best?”
Zhao Haotian smiled, “I am just saying it.”
Wang He looked at the two people in the field, “Zheng Duojing looks very calm! Failed three rounds, and he is still so calm. He really has a big heart.”
