Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes-Chapter 569 - 576: Isn’t this bullshitting! (5/10)

Chapter 569: Chapter 576: Isn’t this bullshitting! (5/10)

Everyone watched as Miss Guan grabbed Yang Zhen’s hand, which then retreated like it had touched electricity. Everyone’s heart felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and they all stared at Yang Zhen, dumbfounded.

It’s over! Yang Kaixin was going to get beaten up!

That was the first reaction of everyone present!

Although Miss Guan typically resided in Plum Blossom Sky, she always had an aloof demeanor. Even when she occasionally responded to greetings, it was merely a cold nod.

Women might receive some response, but men generally got nothing. Now that Yang Zhen had so rashly interrupted Miss Guan during her alchemical process, and acted so brazenly, just about everyone thought Yang Zhen was about to get knocked down by Miss Guan.

Little Fatty bit his finger, his face full of apprehension. He suddenly shivered, and muttered to himself, “Why has it suddenly become cold?”

The temperature in the air suddenly dropped. Everyone glanced at GuanGuan in alarm as her chilly aura intensified, each of them inhaling sharply.

A storm seemed to be looming!

Just as everyone had envisioned, when Miss Guan lifted her eyes to look at Yang Zhen, her gaze was icy and detached.

“It’s wrong…”

Yang Zhen suddenly murmured, furrowed his brow, put the last tiny bit of residue into his mouth, then spat it out with a spit and looked up at GuanGuan, saying, “It’s wrong.”

Wrong?

Everyone stared at Yang Zhen, bewildered. Their eyes showed disbelief.

Yang Zhen was actually saying GuanGuan’s alchemical method was wrong, this… was simply absurd.

So who was GuanGuan? While no one explicitly told the crowd, even Little Fatty knew that she was an Alchemy Grandmaster, a terrifying existence who could create Saint level elixirs.

In front of such an Alchemy Grandmaster, Yang Zhen actually spoke out, and merely said it was wrong?

This stunned all the people of Plum Blossom Sky; they even found it a bit ridiculous.

However, a moment later, everyone suddenly understood.

Indeed, if her alchemical method wasn’t wrong, why did it explode?

“Impressive,” mumbled Little Fatty as he pulled his finger from his mouth and stared at Yang Zhen in awe, “To pointedly find fault with Miss Guan, Comrade Yang Kaixin is simply a role model for us all!”

The other people looked at Yang Zhen with surprise and became extremely interested.

The coldness had disappeared from Miss Guan’s eyes. It was only natural. Anyone who could discuss alchemy with her would definitely pique her interest. But, her knowledge in Alchemy was so profound that only few could hold a conversation with her. As soon as her counterpart was not up to her caliber, there would be no hope for further discussion.

This was not to say Miss Guan was arrogant. Over the past few days, everyone had come to understand that she was simple to a point of naivety and was an absolute devotee to alchemy!

“What do you guess, how many sentences can Yang Kaixin exchange with Miss Guan?”

“Among us, the one who has spoken the most with Miss Guan is Young Master Tian. His father is an Alchemy Grandmaster, Young Master Tian himself is highly accomplished in alchemy, a refining grandmaster despite his youth. In spite of all this, he exchanged not more than five sentences with Miss Guan. As for Yang Kaixin… we don’t really know him.”

“Could this Yang Kaixin be a hidden Alchemy Grandmaster?”

A cold snort sounded. From the crowd, a young man said, “Alchemy Grandmasters aren’t something any youngster can easily achieve. While talent and heritage do play a role, nothing replaces the foundation of broad knowledge and varied experience. What kind of foundation could Yang Kaixin have at his age?”

When the crowd heard the young man’s remarks, they nodded unanimously, strongly agreeing.

“So… wouldn’t Yang Kaixin expose himself in his next sentence?”

The young man nodded, saying, “Presumably so. I do hope that Yang Kaixin converses more with Miss Guan. From what I know, Miss Guan’s accomplishments in alchemy far surpass her peers, but…”

Saying this, Young Master Tian looked at Yang Zhen, sighing, “It’s just because of Miss Guan’s high talent that she is least tolerant of others pretending to understand things they don’t. I myself nearly offended Miss Guan, let alone Yang Kaixin.”

Hearing Young Master Tian’s words, everyone present took in a sharp breath.

At this moment, GuanGuan narrowed her brows, asking softly, “Do you understand alchemy?”

Yang Zhen ignored GuanGuan. His previous sentence that stated “It’s wrong,” wasn’t directed at her. After noticing the issue, he subconsciously voiced it out. Having said that, Yang Zhen entered a state of total immersion, his mind filled with the formula GuanGuan had just shared.

Seeing Yang Zhen ignoring GuanGuan, everyone was gobsmacked, staring at Yang Zhen and then at GuanGuan, all of them feeling confused.

This was the first time someone had ignored Miss Guan.

Young Master Tian looked at Yang Zhen in surprise, with Yang Zhen deep in thought. Furious, he declared, “Who does he think he is, Yang Kaixin, to disregard Miss Guan in such a manner? I’d like to see what else he can say.”

“This pill recipe is quite interesting…”

Under the scrutiny of everyone, Yang Zhen started to mumble, seemingly unaware that someone else was around him.

“There’s nothing wrong with the recipe, the measurements, or the flame control… but where is the mistake?”

Yang Zhen looked confused as he closed his eyes to ponder.

Curiosity shining in her eyes, GuanGuan asked Yang Zhen, “Indeed, where is the problem?”

Yang Zhen shook his head: “This is a formula for a balanced warm and cold pill. All the ingredients have these properties, only the Sheep Scorpion Grass is the binder. The proportion of the Sheep Scorpion Grass isn’t a problem either.”

GuanGuan nodded, signaling for Yang Zhen to continue.

Yang Zhen, as if he hadn’t noticed GuanGuan, stopped speaking. Everyone was waiting for him to continue, but instead he stood up and started rummaging around on the ground. After a short while, he picked up a fragment, exclaiming, “I found it, the problem lies with the Aged Gold Soil clay pot alchemy furnace.”

“What?”

GuanGuan shook, staring at Yang Zhen in disbelief, her brows furrowed as she asked, “This is my alchemy furnace. I use it for almost every pill refinement and have never encountered this problem.”

Hearing GuanGuan’s words, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically as they looked unsettledly at Yang Zhen.

Got a slap in the face, didn’t you? If there was something wrong with Miss Guan’s Aged Gold Soil clay pot alchemy furnace, wouldn’t she have noticed before now?

Young Master Tian chuckled, saying, “Just a trivial matter. Yang Kaixin used the tactic of silence to pique Miss Guan’s curiosity and engage her in conversation for so long. Though it’s a despicable tactic, it’s very effective. However, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. After this, I’m afraid it will be difficult for Yang Zhen to even get a word with Miss Guan.”

Hearing Young Master Tian’s analysis, the crowd nodded in agreement, clearly concurring.

Just then, Yang Zhen suddenly exclaimed: “What nonsense is this? You’ve just been lucky that there’s never been a problem. You used an Aged Gold Soil pot, one with metal attributes, for refining a Dingyuan Pill. Were you trying to sabotage yourself?”

As he continued speaking, Yang Zhen’s voice changed as if he was talking to himself. After hearing his words, everyone was stunned.

No one had told Yang Zhen that Miss Guan had been refining a Dingyuan Pill. Had Yang Zhen deduced it just from tasting a bit of the residue?

This was a bit too horrifying!

What was even more unsettling for everyone was that GuanGuan shrank back involuntarily after hearing Yang Zhen’s words.
