The Eerie Immortal Path: Begin by Devouring Fairy Flesh-Chapter 53 – Sand theft exposed!

"Senior Sisters, I might have eaten something bad yesterday. I need to use the restroom. Could you please allow me to go?"

Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia were slightly taken aback. It was rare for a Qi Refining disciple to have an upset stomach. Could Brandon have eaten something poisonous?

They frowned and said in unison, "Junior Sister Jiang, if the production of Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand is interrupted for too long, it will greatly affect the quality of the Gold Sand. Can you hold on a bit longer?"

Brandon pretended to be tense all over and smiled bitterly, "Senior Sisters, I can't hold it any longer. How about this... I'll take the Gold Sand with me and continue hammering the materials while I'm in the restroom."

Hearing this, Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia's expressions turned a bit strange.

They had been at Purple Lotus Peak for a long time and had never seen anyone do such a thing.

While it might not be proper, there was no rule explicitly stating that one couldn't work while using the restroom.

Moreover, the person making the request was Brandon Jiang, who held a very important position in Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's heart. As long as she didn't do anything too outrageous, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix probably wouldn't mind.

However, Barbara Xia still kindly advised, "Junior Sister Jiang, how about I take over for you first, and you can continue after you come back?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister, but I'd prefer to handle this myself," Brandon firmly declined.

Seeing this, the two women didn't say more and agreed to Brandon's request.

Brandon quickly picked up the Stone Cauldron and the large hammer, running off with an urgent look.

Such a commotion naturally drew a lot of attention, but although people found it strange, they didn't dare say much due to Brandon's unusual status. They just glanced a few times and then went back to their own tasks.

However, in the crowd, one pair of eyes lit up slightly, watching Brandon's back thoughtfully.

It was none other than Susan Lin.

Near an empty restroom at Purple Lotus Peak, Brandon quickly swung the large hammer, rapidly forming the Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand.

Looking at the finished product, Brandon felt a bit satisfied.

The quality rate of this batch of Gold Sand exceeded sixty percent, far surpassing his best previous result.

He immediately took out his Storage Bag, filled it with a mixture of high-quality and inferior Gold Sand, then added an equal amount of defective Blood Sand, mixing them evenly.

In this way, the quality rate of the Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand dropped to about fifty percent, but the total amount remained unchanged.

As for the source of the Blood Sand, Patricia Qing had provided it. Although she lacked Dragon Thunder Fate Qi Refining furnaces, getting some defective Dragon Thunder Fate Blood Sand was quite easy for her.

After finishing all this, Brandon returned to his original position, apologetically saying to Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia, "Senior Sisters, I managed to produce the first batch of Gold Sand in the restroom. Please check it."

Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia nodded and inspected it. Even though they saw that the quality rate was only fifty percent, they didn't say much, just used a sieve-like magical tool to filter it and took away the finished Gold Sand.

Seeing that no one suspected anything, Brandon breathed a sigh of relief.

But then he sighed inwardly. This amount of Gold Sand wasn't even enough to fill Patricia Qing's teeth. He had to keep working hard.

Brandon gritted his teeth and started refining the second batch of Gold Sand. When it was almost done, he used the same excuse, saying he needed to use the restroom.

Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia naturally found it odd, their expressions strange as they asked, "Brandon, what's going on? Why do you need to go to the restroom again?"

Brandon smiled bitterly, "Senior Sisters, I think my stomach is acting up today. Please bear with me."

The two had no choice but to nod again.

Brandon successfully stole another batch of Gold Sand.

In this way, Brandon repeated the process, using the same excuse to steal Gold Sand five times in a row.

He knew that if this continued, someone would definitely become suspicious, but the crisis of the Heartbreak Pill was imminent, and he couldn't afford to worry about that.

Finally, Brandon finished this nerve-wracking task and survived!

Feeling the heavy Gold Sand in his Storage Bag, Brandon felt a bit elated.

With these results, he might not need to break through to the Qi Refining third-level for now, avoiding Patricia Qing's dissatisfaction and anger.

Feeling much better, he headed towards Green Lotus Peak with the Gold Sand.

Just then, a voice suddenly called out from behind him, "Junior Sister Jiang, can I have a word with you?"

Brandon paused and turned around to see a white-robed disciple in her twenties.

She was a familiar face at Purple Lotus Peak, but Brandon didn't recall having any interaction with her and didn't even know her name.

Seeing her smiling yet not smiling expression, Brandon felt a bit nervous but remained calm and said, "If Senior Sister has something to say, you can say it here."

The white-robed disciple squinted and smiled, "Are you sure you want me to say it here? About you stealing the finished Gold Sand?"

Brandon's pupils contracted sharply!

Damn! The situation he least wanted to see had happened. His blatant theft of Gold Sand had indeed been noticed!

The only good news was that this Senior Sister seemed to want something in return and hadn't directly reported to Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix.

Maybe she wanted to profit from this and was trying to blackmail him. If that was the case, he still had a chance!

Brandon gritted his teeth, forcing himself to calm down, and smiled faintly, "Senior Sister, you must be joking. How could I do such a rebellious thing?"

"But since you want to talk privately, I'll listen."

With that, he and the white-robed disciple exchanged smiles, like close sisters, and walked towards a secluded spot.
