C49 Lady Boss Is Very Capable

In Mo Changyou's hands, the three small Heavenly Frost Pills emitted a faint white mist. They were incredibly smooth, resembling carved white jade, despite a few minor imperfections on their surfaces. The pills were covered with fine black lines.

"These are discarded pills," the shop assistant beside Yan Weilan murmured under his breath, skeptical of the master's abilities. He thought the master's pill-making process was nothing more than a show, akin to frying beans.

"Quiet! That's a Pill Pattern! Only the finest pills exhibit Pill Patterns. This is a rare Pill Pattern Divine Pill. With the Pill Pattern, the pill's efficacy will increase by at least 60 to 70 percent!" Yan Weilan quickly reprimanded the assistant. Were it not for Mo Changyou's presence, she might have been tempted to smack some sense into him. After all, if the assistant offended the pill master, he might storm off in a huff.

"Pill Pattern Divine Pill?" Mo Yunyun was equally astonished. She had heard of such pills but had never actually seen one. Now, to her amazement, she was witnessing a Pill Pattern Divine Pill for the first time, right in Mo Changyou's possession.

Mo Changyou merely offered a knowing smile, aware that those around him were clueless. The Heavenly Frost Pill in his grasp was not a mere Pill Pattern Divine Pill. It was a Pill Mist Divine Pill! Pills were categorized into levels, with the lowest being the Scatter Pill, akin to medicinal mud that wouldn't hold shape. The second level was the common pill, while the third boasted a Pill Pattern. The fourth level, the Pill Mist Divine Pill, was characterized by the dense medicinal power that condensed into a mist around the pill. The fifth and highest level featured the Pill Cloud Divine Pill.

Yet, creating a Divine Pill with a Pill Cloud was beyond Mo Changyou's current capabilities. In his past life, he had only managed to do so a handful of times.

"Silly girl, you seem to know quite a bit. Take good care of these Heavenly Frost Pills. If you lose them, I won't be able to make more for you anytime soon," Mo Changyou advised, handing all three pills to Mo Yunyun.

As Mo Yunyun reached out to accept the Heavenly Frost Pills, Yan Weilan interjected.

"Miss, may I inquire if you would consider selling one of these three Heavenly Frost Pills to me? 'Heaven' Rank is prepared to offer 10,000 spirit stones for one. What do you say?" Yan Weilan asked, bowing respectfully to Mo Yunyun.

It's hard to imagine that the prestigious Lady Boss of the Heaven Rank would actually bow to Mo Yunyun.

Mo Yunyun was pleasantly surprised, though she understood that it was all because of Mo Changyou.

Consequently, Mo Yunyun gave Mo Changyou a questioning look.

"You may give her one. Even half of this pill is enough to resolve Qi Deviation. But, Lady Boss, I have one condition—you must agree to it," Mo Changyou stated.

"If it's within my power, I will spare no effort," Yan Weilan responded, bowing deeply with respect.

If she had previously suspected that Mo Changyou was an exceptionally skilled Alchemist, now she was certain.

Her own master had crafted only one Pill Pattern Divine Pill in his lifetime, a pill he had cherished for hundreds of years, too precious to consume.

"I want no fourth person to be privy to the details of our operation," Mo Changyou declared.

"I understand," Yan Weilan acknowledged with a nod.

"Master, I'm still struggling with fire control. Could you possibly guide me?" Yan Weilan inquired.

Mo Changyou's pill-making process seemed as casual as frying beans, using the highest flame to chaotically stir the mixture before retrieving the pill. Yet, the end result was always a Divine Pill with Pill Pattern—a feat beyond the grasp of an ordinary observer, even after countless viewings.

"Alright, silly girl, head back now. I'll stay here and instruct the Lady Boss on fire control," Mo Changyou agreed with a nod.

Having received the Heavenly Frost Pill, Mo Yunyun was unfazed by being called a silly girl; her only desire was to return home and take the pill.

Even as she left, Mo Yunyun's emotions remained stirred. She glanced back at the Heaven Rank establishment, the most distinguished pharmacy in Black Rock City, where the Lady Boss had bowed to her.

Mo Yunyun mused to herself, "Why do I get the feeling that the Second Master's son is even more formidable than the Second Master himself?"

"Temperature control is quite straightforward. My adept manipulation of Spirit Energy allows me to flexibly control the temperature. By converting Spirit Energy into flames, I can easily manage the heat."

"The current temperature is too high. You need to dial back your Spirit Energy output. I'll teach you the Fire Control Technique."

"You're doing well. I believe you could attain the rank of a Grade Four Alchemist in five months."

Mo Changyou persistently mentored Yan Weilan. Despite her significant improvement, she felt slighted.

Back home, she was recognized as an exceptional Alchemist, even receiving accolades from her family's elders.

Yet, Mo Changyou considered her talent to be mediocre and thought she was quite dim-witted.

Nevertheless, Yan Weilan held the sixteen-year-old in high esteem.

The Fire Control Technique he imparted to her was vastly superior to any her clan possessed. Traditionally, Alchemists had to painstakingly discover how to master flames without the aid of any specific techniques.

But Mo Changyou had shared with her this valuable Fire Control Technique.

After about four hours of continuous practice, Yan Weilan was drenched in sweat, her green qipao clinging to her frame.

She removed her veil, for she didn't regard Mo Changyou as a stranger. He was handsome and well-built.

Her exertions had accentuated her attractive figure.

Mo Changyou, however, spared her only a brief glance.

"Doesn't this master have any other thoughts? Could he be impotent?" she pondered.

Yan Weilan was deep in thought, considering that even the shop assistant who had never seen her face seemed captivated by her.

"Do you think I'm impotent?" Mo Changyou suddenly slapped Yan Weilan's behind.

Flushing with embarrassment, Yan Weilan was left speechless as Mo Changyou walked away.

On his return to the Mo family, Mo Changyou stroked his chin, genuinely baffled, "Why do all these women assume I'm impotent?"

It was a mystery that even the Heavenly Book Monarch hadn't been able to solve for tens of thousands of years.

Mo Changyou mused to himself, "But her behind was indeed quite firm."
