Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the extremely dangerous man in front of her, Bai Libing suppressed the shock in her heart and said, “Some things can’t be explained in an instant. Shall we have dinner together later tonight?”

This was the first time Bai Libing had invited a man to dinner. She seemed to think that men had almost no resistance to her looks.

Not only those from the police station, but many of the young people in River City had also lined up to invite her out to dinner, but she had ruthlessly rejected every one of them. It was because those men did not have anything that interested her like Ye Chen did.

For Bai Libing, it was not important to her anymore whether Ye Chen had acted against the father and son of the Chen family. She just wanted to know the secret behind his disappearance in the past five years.

How had he survived the fall from the height of East Coin Lake five years ago?

Where had he gone to in the past five years and where did his terrifying cultivation come from?

“No need. I promised the landlord that I’d be back for dinner tonight.”

After saying that, Ye Chen brushed past her shoulder and walked away without waiting for Bai Libing to respond.

Ye Chen could care less if Bai Libing was a beauty or not.

Why should he, Ye Chen, be kneeling and groveling under her feet like the other men? What kind of joke was that?

He would stand at the peak of Huaxia and look down at this group of people one day. By then, what would this woman mean to him? She was but a small boat in this long river.

Bai Libing froze as if she had been turned into stone after hearing Ye Chen’s response.

She never expected that Ye Chen would refuse her invitation! He had rejected her and left her with no attempt for negotiation! Seriously?

The landlord had asked him to eat? Was she, an attractive policewoman from River City Police Station, not above a landlord?

‘Ye Chen, do you have eyes? Can’t you see my beauty?’

Bai Libing was about to explode at that moment. When had she ever so nicely invited others to eat?

If he did not want to go then fine! Why bring in the landlord?

This was practically putting her to shame!

“Ye Chen, you better stand still!!” Bai Li stomped angrily, but Ye Chen had left without even turning his head back, treating her like air.

…

Half an hour later.

Grand City Apartments.

Ye Chen brought the medicinal herbs into the kitchen. Sun Yi was still sleeping, so he decided to close the kitchen door tightly behind him.

He would not know how to explain to Sun Yi if she found out about the alchemy. He predicted that she would go on about keeping one’s feet firmly planted on the ground and the sorts.

He glanced at the surrounding equipment and felt a headache coming up.

It was a pity that he did not bring over the master’s alchemic stove. Otherwise, everything would have been so much easier. He could only rely on these pots and pans now.

Although the product would be slightly poorer in terms of quality, it should be more than enough to treat Shen Haihua.

“Big cities also have their shortcomings,” Ye Chen said ruefully.

Without further ado, he turned on the induction cooker to its hottest and put the medicinal herbs in accordingly.

The induction cooker was only for warming the herbs. To refine the herbs, they still required True Qi from the depths of Ye Chen’s dantian.

The contents of the pot quickly came up to a boil, but Ye Chen knew very well that the medicinal herbs needed to be refined into a thick consistency for it to considered successful.

One hour passed.

The medicinal herbs in the pot had more or less melted and large drops of sweat were forming on Ye Chen’s forehead.

The rate of consumption of his True Qi was getting faster and faster.

“I need to continue..”

After another hour, with the pot almost burned through, the medicinal materials gradually came together to form a viscous matter. Finally, it dispersed to form five irregular medicinal pills.

“Only five?” He sighed and continued, “But it’s not bad... Mainly, this stove just doesn’t work... I need to find a way to get an alchemic stove somewhere nearby. If not, it’ll be difficult for Zhu Rende to refine the batch of medicine when they arrive. We can’t use the induction cooker every time.”

Ye Chen looked at the pot that had been burned through and the induction cooker that was almost broken with a heavy sigh.

He should hurry up and buy a pot and induction cooker or he would be in trouble again when Sun Yi wakes up.

Ye Chen found an empty mineral water bottle and filled it with the five medicinal pills.

Just when he was about to open the door, he found that Sun Yi was already standing at the door and had been eavesdropping with her ears inclined sideways.

When she saw Ye Chen walking out, Sun Yi coughed to hide the awkwardness and tried to steal a few glances of the kitchen.

“What were you doing in the kitchen by yourself during the day? Were you masturbating? Why is there so much noise? Well, what’s this smell?”

Blocking the door, Ye Chen smiled and explained, “It was nothing, just making some medicine to drink...”

Sun Yi looked at Ye Chen from head to toe and asked with concern, “Are you injured? When did it happen?”

With that said, she ducked and made her way into the kitchen.

When she saw the situation in the kitchen, her whole body stilled.

This was him making medicine? The kitchen looked like it had been through a war! There was even a hole at the bottom of the pot!

Although she had not cooked any medicine before, it was unlikely that it would result in what the bottom of the pot looked like now.

“What the hell are you doing?” Sun Yi asked just as she noticed a small brown pill from the corner of her eyes. Ye Chen had not noticed it himself because it was so small.

Sun Yi picked up the pill and sniffed it, struck by a strong medicinal scent. It really looked like the medicinal pills on TV.

She glanced at Ye Chen and said, “This is what you were meddling with in the kitchen the whole afternoon? It’s not poison, is it?”

Suddenly, she thought of the prescription for the Beginner-level Beauty Pill that Ye Chen had in his hands. While she did not know how he got it, the prescription was real according to those in the technology department.

Her eyes widened when she realized something. “You couldn’t have been concocting pills in my kitchen... It seems you are really ill. Is this that Beginner-level Beauty Pill?”

...

Ye Chen shook his head. He could only tell the truth now that he had been found out.

“This is an ordinary pill. It can’t beautify your appearance but it’s no big deal if you take it. It even removes some illnesses immediately. As for serious illnesses, perhaps a few more of those would be needed. I plan to find a good alchemic stove in the next few days and then I will make some for you. This medicine is too weak, so just throw it away.”

Sun Yi had had enough.

Sure enough, this boy was still immersed in whatever martial arts world he thought he was in.

A few days ago, he had said he was some kind of medical god and now he was an alchemist.

Could he not be a bit more realistic? How naive!

Dear lord, Sun Yi was really going crazy. How could there be any magical elixirs in this world? It was all just fantasy!

Ye Chen’s prescription was not fake. After all, it was the treasure left by his ancestors and there was some scientific basis to it.

Alchemy, however, was a bit exaggerated.

Sun Yi did not believe that the pill could remove any illnesses at all. If there was something so great, what was the need for hospitals?

“Are you free tomorrow? I’ll arrange an appointment with a psychiatrist later for you. You can’t go on like this. It’s dangerous.” Sun Yi said worriedly.

...

Ye Chen did not want to drag this conversation with Sun Yi on. No one would believe this kind of thing.

He turned and went out the door. “I’m going to buy a pot. As for this pill, you can keep it if you want or throw it if you don’t.”
