“How is that possible? Where did 1 go wrong?” Su Ziyin protested, her cheeks puffed up like a squirrel with a mouthful of food.
“There’s no Nine Miles Fragrance in it, and you’ve missed two ingredients.”
“Impossible!”
Su Ziyin was confident in her taste buds.
Anything she had sampled before, she could recognize without fail.
“You overlooked Mountain Agarwood and Mermaid’s Tears. These two herbs, when combined, produce a scent similar to Nine Miles Fragrance.”
Su Ziyin’s expression shifted. She had been debating between Nine Miles Fragrance and Seven Miles Fragrance earlier. Although these two were essentially the same herb, differences in age could affect their scent, especially when mixed with other ingredients. However, the result was clear: neither Nine Miles Fragrance nor Seven Miles Fragrance was present!
She had no idea what scent would result from the combination of Mountain Agarwood and Mermaid’s Tears, but she had no doubt about Gu Qinghian’s words.
So, she had failed!
Su Ziyin’s whole attitude drooped, much like a deflated balloon.
She felt both regretful and embarrassed. “Do you think 1 was just boasting earlier?”
Seeing her granddaughter so distressed, Su Haisheng’s heart ached as well.
“Yin’er, let’s head back. Grandfather will give you proper guidance. It’s okay not to recognize it. Even Grandfather didn’t know that mixing Mountain Agarwood and Mermaid’s Tears would create the fragrance of Nine Miles Fragrance.”
It might have been wiser if her grandfather hadn’t mentioned it, because as soon as Su Ziyin discovered that even her grandfather was unaware, she no longer wished to return, convinced of Teacher Jun’s remarkable skills.
“Teacher Jun, can you give me another chance?”
Su Ziyin suddenly grabbed Gu Qingluan’s hand, pleading pitifully.
In truth, Gu Qingluan had already accepted her.
This girl did indeed possess great talent.
However, when they agreed on the test, she couldn’t simply let her pass after failing.
After pondering for a moment, Gu Qingluan finally said, “Seeing how sincere you are, 1 can give you one more chance.”
Su Ziyin was thrilled. “You said it! 1 will definitely pass this time!”
“As long as you can successfully refine the pill you attempted earlier, I will accept you as my disciple.”
Alchemy was a highly intricate craft. It involved precise measurements of ingredients, their specific ratios, the sequence of their addition, the intensity of heat applied, and various other factors. A slight error in any of these aspects could result in a failed alchemical process.
Currently, Su Ziyin only had information about the raw materials in the pill, lacking details on the entire procedure. Successfully crafting it posed a significant challenge.
Su Haisheng felt that Gu Qingluan was deliberately making things difficult for his granddaughter. It seemed like she didn’t want to take his precious granddaughter as her disciple and was intentionally testing her.
He was quite angry, and his gaze towards Gu Qingluan was far from friendly.
However, Su Ziyin was brimming with determination. “Alright! It’s a deal. If I can refine an identical pill, you must accept me as your disciple!”
Then, she wrinkled her nose slightly. “But I’m missing some herbs here. 1 need to go prepare them first.”
“You have three days. We’ll meet at noon at the Immortal Ascension Tower three days from now.”
Su Ziyin nodded vigorously. “Great! See you in three days! You’re going to have a new disciple! Teacher Jun, goodbye for now. 1 need to gather the herbs!”
With that, she attempted to lead Su Haisheng away.
Su Haisheng hurriedly explained to Hall Master Lin about his helplessness in dealing with the patient.
Hall Master Lin wasn’t surprised and still thanked him for taking the time to come. He then provided them with the consultation fee and had them escorted out.
The grandfather and granddaughter duo left in a hurry.
Hall Master Lin withdrew his gaze and teased, “It looks like we should congratulate Mr. Jun in advance. Soon, you will have such an extraordinary and well-connected disciple.”
Gu Qingluan let out a light sigh. “Hall Master Lin, your humor is appreciated. Let’s proceed to visit the patient.”
Her communication jade technique remained silent, leaving her uncertain about Feng Tianlan’s progress. For now, they could only bide their time as necessary..
