Chapter 73 - Change In Aura
Chapter 73 - Change In Aura
Bai Rouyun was not a conservative person, but she had not expected that Wen Sihan wanted to barge into her room. If he had succeeded, she would have been in big trouble since she was not present, but inside the Primal Chaos Dimension.
"You can't enter my room without my permission," Bai Rouyun said hurriedly while hearing their conversation. "I could be changing clothes or sleeping. Don't you think that Li Moyun will be very mad if you accidentally saw me changing my clothes?"
Seeing Bai Rouyun, Wen Sihan first wanted to talk to her, but when he heard what she said, his face paled noticeably.
He had seen how much Li Moyun pampered Bai Rouyun. It was not possible that he would forgive him if he actually saw something he should not have seen.
"Sister-in-law lets forget about it," Wen Sihan said, as he wiped the nonexistent cold sweat from his forehead. "I will never try to enter your room again. However, don't you think you should tell me about your alchemy skills now? How highly ranked are you? How long have you been refining pills?"
Bai Rouyun saw the eagerness in Wen Sihan's expression, and she felt a headache coming her way. He was a fanatic when it came to pill refinement and elixir concoction.
"Uh, I am just a grade one Alchemist," Bai Rouyun said honestly. "I am not very skilled at refining pills yet, but I have gained a legacy after a transcended level alchemist."
The Transcended Level Alchemist that Bai Rouyun mentioned was the last owner of the Primal Chaos Pagoda. While Bai Rouyun had found the Primal Chaos Pagoda in the Nine Cloud Emperor's Tomb, he had never been able to make the treasure acknowledge him as it's owner. It just laid amongst other treasures until Bai Rouyun robbed it from the tomb.
"So that is why some of the pill formulas you gave me were for pills above the tenth grade?"
Wen Sihan had been quite confused when he got his hands on the book full of formulas, and when he saw that some of the pills were ranked above the tenth rank, he was shocked.
He did not know what was above the tenth rank, but listening to Bai Rouyun, it was something called a Transcended Alchemist.
He wanted to know more, but Bai Rouyun said nothing even when she saw his curious expression.
She could not very well explain something to him since she only knew very little herself. Xiao Bao and Xiao Jin never wanted to go into details, they just mentioned it once.
Wen Sihan thought that perhaps she was not allowed to tell about what she knew, so he did not ask more.
But now that he knew that there was something beyond the tenth grade, he wanted to advance as soon as possible.
He did not want to admit it, but previously he had been casual and not too hurried in his advance because he was already the highest-ranked alchemist in the entire Empire.
But now he suddenly understood that there was a world beyond what he knew, a whole new unexplainable universe that he wanted to enter.
Wen Sihan looked at Bai Rouyun as if he had found a treasure trove of wonders. Someone who could bring out more and more wondrous information for him.
First, she had told him about the ancient recipes and formulas, and now she was informing him that there was a rank above the tenth-grade.
But as he looked at her, he could not help but frown. She did not look different, but something about her had changed subtly since she had left the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. It was as if she was stronger now, but her strength did not have a breakthrough.
It was not only Wen Sihan who noticed this, but Mo Chu also noticed that it seemed as if she had gotten a better grasp of her power. Her aura was much steadier, and her eyes were calm, without the slightest ripple.
Not even a day had passed, but even so, the changes that had happened to her were so obvious that they could be spotted with the naked eye.
Bai Rouyun saw their puzzled and shocked faces as they looked at her, and she quickly understood why. The herbal bath had indeed solidified her foundation, but it had also increased her potential. Her aura was stronger and her breath more powerful.
When one looked at her, she was not at all like a normal Acquired Rank, Earth Tiered expert. Instead, she had the aura of an Innate Realm cultivator.
Bai Rouyun smiled sweetly at the two men, not planning on explaining anything, and then she went to the dining room to eat her food.
Although she had stepped into the realms of a cultivator, she still needed food to sustain her life. She was, after all, still at the first realm and the first tier.
As she arrived at the dining hall, she found that her food had not changed at all, even though Li Moyun had left. She had thought that the palace would make things hard for her, but so far, everyone was treating her with respect and reverence. No one was disrespectful towards her, and no one was trying to make things hard for her either.
This was quite the surprise, but also a relief. She knew that with Mo Chu on her side, she would be able to make all of them submit to her, but that was not what she wanted. She wanted them to accept her for who she was, not because her guard held a lot of power.
