“Brother Cheng, you are really hot-tempered!” Chen Xiaoyao walked in with a light smile.
Mo Fei picked his eyebrows, looking at him, “Senior Chen it’s you!” Right after he had refined the potion, Chen Xiaoyao came. Apparently he was here to claim it.
Cheng Mobai sized up and down of Chen Xiaoyao, “What are you doing here?”
“I heard that you have refined the heavenly class potion, so I came to congratulate you.” Chen Xiaoyao replied.
Cheng Mobai twitched his mouth, saying disapprovingly, “You are to congratulate him, but not to claim the potion?”
Chen Xiaoyao shook his head, “Of course not!”
Then he helplessly caught a glimpse of Cheng Mobai, and thought, this old man is so straightforward, still like an as*hole like before! It’s really Mo Fei’s misfortune to have such a shifu!
Cheng Mobai obliquely leered at Chen Xiaoyao, saying coldly, “Even if you are here to claim the potion, it’s already too late. Those people of the pharmacists’ association has taken it away for test. When I went to ask it back, they said it was all used up during the test.”
Those f**king bastards! That’s a heavenly class potion! Even if only one third, it is priceless, thinking of the loss, Cheng Momai felt like it was like cutting his flesh.
Chen Xiaoyao looked at Mo Fei, hesitated to say, “Mo Fei, I heard people say the potion you refined is not a heavenly class, but a fake one.”
Mo Fei nodded, “Yes!”
Chen Xiaoyao furrowed his brow, “Your potion, is it, or not…”
Cheng Mobai said angrily, “What? You don’t believe in my disciple’s ability? Tell you what, it is a heavenly class potion. Those shameless brats are jealous of my disciple’s talent, so they lied.”
“I have never doubted his ability, I am just thinking since Mr. Mo has succeeded once, it wouldn’t be a difficult thing to succeed twice.” Said Chen Xiaoyao.
Mo Fei gave an embarrassed smile, “Senior Chen, it was only by chance that I was able to make it last time. Besides, I’ve already used up all the ingredients you gave me.”
A heavenly class potion is no common potion. Mo Fei had thought he could have saved some. But, with so many ingredients, he only made one potion. If it hadn’t been his sheer luck, he really had no face to see Chen Xiaoyao!
Chen Xiaoyao said disapprovingly, “I have the ingredients.”
Cheng Mobai rolled his eyes at him, saying disdainfully, “I knew you don’t trust my disciple, so you got a backup plan.”
“It’s not like what you think. About this body of a star beast, I bought it from a friend not long ago. It really cost me a lot!”
Cheng Mobai blinked and said, “Really?”
Chen Xiaoyao nodded, “Yeah!”
Mo Fei looked at Chen Xiaoyao, a bit surprised, “Senior Chen, rumor has it that the potion refined is a pseudo-heavenly class potion. Aren’t you suspicious?”
Chen Xiaoyao smiled, “Even if it was a pseudo one, I believe some day you’d refine a real heavenly class one.”
Mo Fei smiled, “Then, I will never let you down.”
Chen Xiaoyao smiled, “Mo Fei, just try your best and that’s enough.”
…
In the Lab
Xiao Chen looked at the star beast meat in Mo Fei’s hand, eye glittering, “It seems the star source force contained in this piece is denser that the last one.”
Mo Fei nodded, “Yeah, you are right!” Chen Xiaoyao really trusted him, which made Mo Fei who hid two thirds of the potion a bit embarrassed.
Mo Fei put away the star beast meat, “Forget about it for now. I need some star herbs that could kill the pains. Are they all prepared?”
“Almost. There’s still one kind that hasn’t been delivered yet. Elder Cheng has asked someone to transfer it from outside.” Xiao Chen answered.
Mo Fei held his forehead, “Why still hasn’t it been delivered yet?”
Xiao Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, “That’s because the herbs you need are too precious, which are all under the control of those silly old men and can’t be transferred.”
Mo Fei nodded, “If so, the painkilling potion thing can only be put aside temporarily, I will first refine this star beast meat into a potion first.”
“How many odds?” Xiao Chen asked.
