Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Chapter 20: Chapter 20



For Ye Ling, concocting the Cold Pill was very easy.

Of course, the name "Cold Pill" was something Ye Ling came up with himself.

If Ye Ling had his Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor's cultivation from his previous life, making something like Cold Pills would be as simple as producing a hundred in one second.

Even now, at the early stage of Houtian, he could still concoct one or two furnaces in an hour,

With one furnace, according to Ye Ling's alchemy technique, there would be at least about ten pills.

Ye Ling took out the Pill Furnace and placed the traditional Chinese medicines inside, immediately stimulating his True Qi.

This True Qi was actually fiery red, like flames, and instantly turned the Pill Furnace red-hot.

However, Ye Ling's control of the heat was excellent; the flames did not melt the Pill Furnace but were only melting the medicines inside.

As time slowly passed, the traditional medicines began to turn into liquid.

However, these medicines were dry after all, not like the fresh Spiritual Medicines of his previous life, which yielded little liquid.

Ye Ling added a bit of purified sweet water into the Pill Furnace and continued to place other medicines inside in order.

After an hour, a fragrance of pills wafted from inside the Pill Furnace.

Ye Ling sniffed and frowned, "It still doesn't compare to Spiritual Medicines; this fragrance of pills is mixed with some unpleasant smells."

Upon opening the Pill Furnace, there lay a number of Elixir Pills quietly inside.

Ye Ling carefully counted, and there turned out to be a full 23 pills!

These pills were dull and lacked luster, not looking at all like Elixir Pills.

They were more like fakes made from mud!

But Ye Ling was confident that only those who had taken these pills would know whether they were genuine or counterfeit.

"I'll start by concocting these Cold Pills first, replenish some True Qi, then make some Menstrual Pills," Ye Ling muttered to himself.

Menstrual Pills, naturally, were for treating menstrual issues.

What is a Pill Master?

A specialist for all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases!

Ye Ling, with the memories of the former Ye Ling integrated, naturally understood some of Earth's diseases.

But his True Qi was insufficient at the moment, and the quality of these medicinal ingredients was too poor; otherwise, he would have been able to concoct Elixir Pills for incurable diseases such as AIDS, cancer, and leukemia.

After cultivating for half an hour, Ye Ling's True Qi finally recovered sufficiently.

This made him once again lament in secret that the Spiritual Energy on Earth was far too scarce.

There was too much... bloody smog!

Isn't there a saying?

Ask what the clear skies are, they are what make it impossible to dry underwear.

Donghai City was still a little better, but those southern cities, if you went out for a spin and came back, it was as if you lay on a wet bed or stood in a steamy bathhouse.

Another half hour or more passed, and he concocted a furnace of Menstrual Pills, totaling 18 pills.

Ye Ling glanced at the time and thought that Liu Qiao'er should be getting off work by now.

"Two tigers, two tigers, falling in love, falling in love, both are male tigers, both are male tigers, so strange, so strange..."

Just then, Ye Ling's phone ringtone suddenly sounded.

Looking at the caller ID, it was Liu Qiao'er's number.

"Wifey, you off work?" Ye Ling asked with a chuckle.

"Don't talk nonsense, who's your wifey."

On the other end of the phone, Liu Qiao'er spat out in retort.

"Aunt Fang and my nutty former landlord both think you're my wifey, ah, we must have quite the couple's look," Ye Ling teased.

"If you keep spouting nonsense, I... I won't come over to your place," Liu Qiao'er said.

"Alright, alright, my mistake, is that okay?"

Ye Ling quickly said, "So you're off work? Wait there for me, don't wander off, be careful of perverts trying to kidnap you."

"Psh, I think you're just a big lecher," Liu Qiao'er giggled.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Ling immediately left the villa and ran towards the World Financial Center.

He also brought the elixir pills with him, and it was just the time when work ended, when the crowds were at their peak.

To cover a distance of 3 bus stops, Ye Ling took less than 3 minutes to arrive.

Liu Qiao'er was standing at the entrance of the hall on the first floor of Building 18, waiting for Ye Ling.

Around her were quite a few people, and all of them were men, but none of them greeted her, their eyes kept drifting towards Liu Qiao'er's chest.

Liu Qiao'er was really helpless, this was already the third place she had moved to, and yet she was still surrounded by so many disgusting men.

"Qiao'er, what a coincidence?"

Just then, a young man with gold-rimmed glasses and a parted hairstyle walked over.

Liu Qiao'er was startled, turned her head to look, and smiled, "Lin Hua, it's you."

Lin Hua subtly glanced at Lin Qiao'er's chest and thought to himself, wow, so big.

"Why are you standing here? Shall I take you home?" Lin Hua smiled and approached Liu Qiao'er.

When he reached Liu Qiao'er, that faint, refreshing fragrance from her body immediately wafted into his nose, and Lin Hua couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"No need, I'm waiting for someone, you go ahead," Liu Qiao'er said with a smile.

Lin Hua worked in the same department as her, so they were colleagues, and they had met just today.

"Waiting for someone?"

Lin Hua smiled and said, "Who are you waiting for? It couldn't be your boyfriend, could it?"

"That's not the case," Lin Qiao'er replied politely.

She could certainly tell that this guy had no good intentions towards her.

However, since they were colleagues, and Lin Hua had taken very good care of her today, Liu Qiao'er felt bad about sending him away.

"As long as it's not your boyfriend, that's good. I was afraid your boyfriend would misunderstand," Lin Hua murmured in relief. In his hand, he squeezed a car key, and at a distance, a beep sounded as the lights of a black BMW 525 flashed.

"As a senior figure in the company, I naturally should take good care of the newbies on their first day!" Lin Hua posed in what he believed was a gentlemanly manner and smiled, "Miss Liu, may I invite you to dinner first, and then take you home afterward?"

Lin Hua understood women pretty well.

Most of them were after money, especially the beautiful ones.

Of course, Han Qingxin was an exception; she didn't even know what money was for.

But for someone like Liu Qiao'er, dressed in ordinary brand clothes, Lin Hua still had confidence in winning her over.

He also believed that after seeing his BMW, Liu Qiao'er would definitely agree to go with him.

"Forget about it, my friend will be here soon," Lin Qiao'er laughed lightly.

Lin Hua thought Lin Qiao'er was playing hard to get and added, "You can call your friend, tell them you're working overtime tonight. I've already reserved a table at the Peninsula Steakhouse, lucky that my mom is the chairwoman there, otherwise, given how popular the Peninsula Steakhouse is, it really wouldn't have been easy to book."

The meaning of his words was clear—with his mother being one of the major shareholders of the Peninsula Steakhouse.

This trick had hardly failed Lin Hua before; upon hearing it and seeing Lin Hua's car, ninety-nine percent of the girls would follow him.

Unfortunately, Lin Qiao'er was that one percent who wouldn't go with him.

Liu Qiao'er was growing impatient with Lin Hua's persistence, but her good upbringing stopped her from saying anything too unpleasant.

"Really, it's not necessary."

Liu Qiao'er said, moving to one side.

Unexpectedly, Lin Hua ran over again, blocking Liu Qiao'er's path.

"Qiao'er, since it's our first day meeting, you wouldn't deny me this bit of light, would you?" Lin Hua pretended to be dissatisfied.

Liu Qiao'er listened, not knowing exactly how to reply, when suddenly a loud curse erupted.

"Give you light, my ass? Come here, I'll give you a few slaps in the face!"
