Master Mo, feeling vindicated at this moment, couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Brother Sun, oh Brother Sun, you were so cautious, hiding that ancient prescription, afraid that Young Friend Su might steal it. Little did you know, Young Friend Su had already mastered it!”
Bruce Sun wished he could find a hole to crawl into. He had treated that tattered ancient prescription like a treasure, not realizing that Terra Su had long since mastered its contents.
“Young Friend Su, since you have already mastered so much of the ancient prescription, have you also grasped the missing parts?” Master Mo asked Terra Su.
Terra Su nodded calmly. “Naturally, I have the complete Divine Spring Elixir prescription.”
“Really? You truly have the complete Divine Spring Elixir prescription?”
Bruce Sun’s eyes lit up. He had come today to discuss with Master Mo how to complete the Divine Spring Elixir prescription. If Terra Su truly had the complete prescription, it would be fantastic news for him!
“Impossible!”
At this moment, Gabriel Shi interrupted their conversation with a frown. “Brother Mo, Brother Sun, what’s wrong with you? How can a young brat deceive you so easily? How could he possibly have the complete Divine Spring Elixir prescription? It’s absolutely impossible.”
Gabriel Shi glared at Terra Su. “Kid, I don’t know what tricks you’re using, but you can’t fool me.”
“Brother Shi!”
Suddenly, Bruce Sun turned to Gabriel Shi, interrupting him coldly. “Please leave!”
“Brother Sun, what are you saying?” Gabriel Shi was stunned, thinking he had misheard. Bruce Sun was actually asking him to leave, even though he was trying to help Bruce Sun avoid being deceived.
“I said, please leave and stop disrupting Young Friend Su’s efforts to complete the prescription!” Bruce Sun’s voice was also cold. He had been about to take out the prescription, but Gabriel Shi’s interference had only made Master Mo angrier, causing unnecessary complications.
Now, Bruce Sun would not give Gabriel Shi another chance to cause trouble.
“Fine, fine!” Gabriel Shi was trembling with anger. “I was trying to help you, and this is how you repay me? Fine, I’ll leave!”
With that, Gabriel Shi stormed out of the room, glaring at Terra Su as he left, clearly blaming him for his treatment.
“What nonsense about dual mastery in Martial Dao and Elixir Path, almost ruined my plans!” Bruce Sun snorted coldly at Gabriel Shi’s retreating figure. He had met Gabriel Shi on the way to Clear River City. Gabriel had insisted on coming along after hearing about the precious ancient prescription. Bruce Sun had agreed, considering Gabriel’s reputation.
But Gabriel’s meddling had almost offended someone who could complete the ancient prescription. Naturally, Bruce Sun would not show him any more kindness.
“Young Friend Su, I was blind and rash earlier. I apologize and hope you can help me complete the Divine Spring Elixir prescription.”
Bruce Sun turned to Terra Su and bowed deeply, showing his sincere apology.
Master Mo, standing nearby, snorted coldly. “I asked you to take out the prescription earlier, but you hesitated. Now look what happened? Young Friend Su came to help out of goodwill, and you doubted him. Would you be happy if it were you?”
Bruce Sun was speechless. Indeed, if the roles were reversed, he wouldn’t be happy either. He blamed his own shallow knowledge for not believing that a fifteen-year-old could have such profound knowledge of the Elixir Path.
“Young Friend Su, I am truly sorry.” Bruce Sun could only keep apologizing.
Master Mo glared at him, then turned to Terra Su and bowed. “Young Friend Su, I apologize on his behalf. I hope you can forgive him this time.”
Hearing this, Bruce Sun anxiously watched Terra Su, fearing he would refuse.
If anyone else were present, they would think the world had gone mad, seeing two renowned Alchemy Masters from Anyang County apologizing to a fifteen-year-old.
Terra Su nodded. “For Master Mo’s sake, I’ll help this time.”
After all, Master Mo had offered to help him refine the Leaving Fire Elixir, a favor he needed to repay.
Hearing this, Bruce Sun was overjoyed. “Thank you, Young Friend Su!”
Terra Su picked up the brush again and completed the prescription he had been writing. He then shook the paper. “Here, take it!”
Bruce Sun eagerly took the paper and compared it with his treasured ancient prescription. He was overjoyed to find that Terra Su’s prescription matched his ancient one perfectly, only completing the four missing ingredients.
This proved that Terra Su’s Divine Spring Elixir prescription was indeed genuine.
Bruce Sun, unable to contain his excitement, bowed deeply to Terra Su again. “Thank you, Young Master Su, for your generosity!”
He was visibly excited. “If I take this completed ancient prescription back to the Alchemy Guild, those old fellows will be shocked! They’ve been studying it for a month without success, and I got the complete prescription in one trip to Clear River City. They’ll be stunned!”
Master Mo shook his head and said to Terra Su, “Young Friend Su, don’t mind him. He’s like this. He’s an Alchemist at the Alchemy Guild, and his character is solid, though he can be a bit crazy at times.”
“The Alchemy Guild?”
Terra Su’s attention was caught by the mention of the “Alchemy Guild.”
He had heard of the Alchemy Guild in his previous life. It was the headquarters of the Alchemy Guild, overseeing the branches in the five cities of Anyang County, and was located in Anyang City, the county’s capital.
The Cloud Abyss Empire had six counties, each with an Alchemy Guild headquarters overseeing the branches in its cities.
Seeing Bruce Sun still laughing to himself, Master Mo shook his head and walked out of the room with Terra Su.
