Chapter 145 Ch-145: Ebonheart City(4)
"That's great," the city lord exclaimed, relief washing over his face. Sun Jing also let out a sigh of relief.
"City Lord, it would be wise to start immediately, but for that, I need the ingredients," Wang Ming said with a smile. The Lord suddenly remembered that his son had yet to arrive with the necessary ingredients.
"Damn it! Someone, go and fetch Lei Tao. Where the hell is that useless son of mine?" the Lord shouted. One of the guards quickly left and returned with Lei Tao, accompanied by a maid carrying the ingredients, while another guard brought the furnace.
"Father, what happened? What's that mist coming out of Mother's body?" Lei Tao said, taking a few steps back in fear.
"What took you so long? What were you doing?" Lei Wei shouted.
" Hmm, what else would I be doing, I went to gather the ingredients, it takes time Father," Lei Tao replied while looking a bit nervous, in truth, he was not gathering the ingredients but was getting a head from the maid beside him, the maid had wiped the traces of his white Yang Qi from her lips as she entered the room, it was noticed by all three of Wang Ming who looked down at him, Sun Jing who had seen this had a look sadness and anger flashed in her eyes as he went to indulge in pleasure in such a situation but decided to ignore as she was already fed up with him, Lei Wei, on the other hand, had his face contorted in anger but stooped himself from lashing out as there was a more important matter in hand
Wang Ming patiently waited with his hands folded as they set up the furnace and ingredients. He then took a seat in front of the furnace but furrowed his brows when he noticed everyone was still present.
"Why are you guys still here? Don't you know the effects of the pill?" Wang Ming reminded them. The Golden Mist Pill had one crucial requirement—it had to be prepared in an enclosed room. Only females and the alchemist could remain, as it could harm male meridians who was not the alchemist if they came into contact with it. Realizing their mistake, the others quickly left the room.
Lei Wei instructed, "Sung Jin, stay here with him." He was concerned that Wang Ming might need assistance. Lei Tao was initially uneasy about leaving his wife alone with another man but soon realized that Wang Ming wouldn't be able to move throughout the entire process as he had to control the flames and concoct the pill but that was the biggest mistake that would make him wear a 'Green Hat' which he would never be aware of
" Alright father," Sun Jing said in a neutral tone as they left the room
Once they had departed, Wang Ming took charge of the situation. He carefully kindled the fire beneath the furnace, and as the flames roared to life, the room's temperature began to rise. He monitored the heat diligently, ensuring it reached the optimal level. When the temperature was just right, he began adding the ingredients one by one, each with a precise and calculated motion.
Sun Jing, standing on the side, watched in awe. This was the first time she had witnessed an alchemist concocting a pill. Suddenly, a golden mist began to emerge from within the furnace. Her curiosity deepened as her eyes furrowed in surprise when she noticed that a couple of pills had formed and then merged into a single one.
"Hmm, how did these pills form? Shouldn't they remain in a gaseous state?" Her eyebrows furrowed with confusion. While she might not be an alchemist herself, she had some knowledge about this particular pill. According to what she knew, this pill wasn't supposed to transform into a solid form but remain in a gaseous state.
Her expression became even more bewildered as she observed Wang Ming stepping away from the furnace. According to her knowledge, the alchemist needed to remain in front of the furnace continuously, controlling the flames. To her amazement, a golden pill had formed, emitting a radiant golden mist.
"Hmm, Alchemist Wang, what's going on?" Sun Jing approached Wang Ming, her curiosity getting the best of her. Wang Ming, noticing her confusion, smiled and offered an explanation.
"This is a special technique of mine that led to this result. I hope Miss Sun Jing won't share this with anyone," Wang Ming replied, to which she nodded wisely in agreement. She understood that alchemists had their own secrets, and she decided not to divulge this particular technique to anyone.
Together, they watched as more golden mist slowly emanated from the pill, gradually making its way toward Eli Yang's body.
As soon as the golden mist made contact with her, it neutralized the black mist emanating from her body. The golden mist seeped into her, causing the black veins on her skin to gradually disappear. Her once frail body started to regain its lost mass, and her complexion slowly but surely returned to its former healthy glow. They both approached her and stood silently near the bed where she was lying
Wang Ming couldn't help but admire her rejuvenated appearance. She now possessed a voluptuous body, even more so than Sun Jing, and her middle-aged face exuded a unique and mature aura.
A soft groan escaped her lips, and her eyes slowly fluttered open. The first thing that caught her gaze was Wang Ming's divine appearance, which caused her heart to beat erratically.
"What a handsome man! I've never seen someone so handsome before. Is this my husband? No way, he can't even hold a candle in front of him," Lei Yufang mused inwardly. A blush crept onto her face. Due to Wang Ming's Pure Yang Physique, no woman could resist his charms. He could be described as so incredibly handsome that even the most beautiful women would feel inadequate in comparison to him. Notably, his beauty only increased as his cultivation grew.
"Mother, you're awake!" Before Lei Yufang could say anything to Wang Ming, she was interrupted by Sun Jing's cheerful voice.
