Chapter 229: Level Five Potion (1)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Meng Feifei sized Mo Fei up and down, asking with her head tilted, “Mo Fei, the finals is gonna start soon. What level potion are you gonna refine?”
Mo Fei peeped at Nalan Tianwu and then stretched out five fingers, saying cunningly, “Level five!”
On hearing his words, Nalan Tianwu who was standing next to him immediately threw dagger eyes at him!
Meng Feifei then looked at Mo Fei with admiration, “Level five! Wow! Mo Fei, you can already refine level five potions? Good for you! My upper limit is only level four ones.”
Mo Fei waved his hand and said modestly, “I’ve just made it to a level five pharmacist, so there’s a slight chance I could do it. So actually I myself am also worried about my performance later.”
Meng Feifei smiled, “I know you can do it. I have never seen anyone who could have refined six potions in a row and didn’t fail one. Mo Fei, you are an absolute genius.”
“Oh, come on. You are flattering me. That was because I only got one portion of ingredients for each prescription and I got a lot of pressure, otherwise I couldn’t have had such extraordinary performance and succeeded in all.” Mo Fei gave a hollow laugh. Damn! Not until the competition was over did he know that others all got three portions of the ingredients while only he got one! What the hell!
Meng Feifei then turned a look at Nalan Tianwu’s direction with disdain, “Someone relied on his position to skimp your herbs. What a shame!”
Hearing her words, Nalan Tianwu only felt her face immediately reddened. Apparently she was referring to Nalan Xing.
Wang Jia then gave Meng Feifei a stare, “Feifei, don’t talk nonsense!”
Meng Feifei shrugged her shoulders, mouth pouted, “I am just telling the truth.”
Wang Jia said grumpily, “Shut up!”
Meng Feifei stuck out her tongue and said, “Fine. I’ll shut up. Oh right, why doesn’t Lin Feiyu come? Is it Childe Qian Ye’s concert today so he gives up the finals and goes to the concert? If so, then I’m also going.”
Wang Jia’s expression changed a bit, “Don’t make a scene.”
Meng Feifei then said with a fawning voice, “Sister, let me go. Anyway, even if I stay for the competition, I would never have the chance to rank top three.”
Wang Jia glared at Meng Feifei and said crossly, “Where is your ambition? Feifei, you better behave! Your Childe Qian Ye doesn’t hold concert today. But I’m afraid Lin Feiyu can’t come today.”
Meng Feifei looked at Wang Jia, perplexed, “He can’t come? But why?”
Wang Jia said angrily, “Why do you care about other’s personal life? You just mind your own business!”
Meng Feifei said with an innocent tone, “Sister, I’m just curious.”
“If you want to know, I can tell you!” said Mo Fei, eyes blinking.
Meng Feifei then looked at Mo Fei expectantly, “Really? Mo Fei, do you know why he doesn’t come?”
Mo Fei nodded, “Actually here is the thing. Childe Lin happened to obtain some kind of level eight potion and was very excited.”
“You know, he has always been holding great passion about potions. But after getting it, he didn’t know about its properties. He was just too curious. So in order to study that kind of level eight potion, he even tried it on himself. You can see. Childe Lin’s passion for potions is so respectable!” sighed Mo Fei.
“So what kind of level eight potion is it?” asked Meng Feifei.
“Cultivation-melting potion. After taking it, one would feel that to live is no better than to die, and lose all cultivation. Alas! So you know, after he took it…Alas…forget it…So, though we should appreciate his spirit, we should never act as rashly as him.” Mo Fei then heaved a sigh.
Meng Feifei was surprised, eyes wide open, “Ah? Why didn’t I know Lin Feiyu’s passion for potions has reached to this level? I really belittled him before!”
Looking at Meng Feifei’s shocking face, Wang Jia grinded her teeth, thinking, “How is it possible Lin Feiyu would try it on himself? The truth is he tried to use it on Prince Yu but failed and finally took it himself by mistake. Her junior sister was still too naïve and even bought such bullshit!”
Mo Fei said with a sincere face, “I also didn’t know that! After taking it, one would lose his soul force gradually. So Lin Feiyu will never make it to a superior pharmacist. Having passion is a good thing. But don’t use it in a wrong way.”
Meng Feifei completely agreed, “Yes, yes. We should never try potions casually. That’s totally wrong! But level eight potion is too hard to get. Who gave it to him?”
Wang Jia gave Meng Feifei a hard look, “All right. Stop it. The competition is beginning.”
Hearing her words, Meng Feifei could only calm down and shut her mouth.
Thousands of commonly-seen herbs were laid on a giant table for them to choose.
Then those contestants who entered the finals got on the stage and started to choose the herbs they thought appropriate for them.
Seeing that Mo Fei really chose three kinds of level five herbs, one could imagine how twisted Nalan Tianwu’s face was at the moment.
Prince Yu’s rising gave Consort Nalan great pressure. Through this potion competition, Nalan family planned to re-establish their credibility if Nalan Tianwu could top the list! But this Mo Fei came from nowhere and completely spoiled Consort Nalan’s whole plan.
