Chapter 725 - Downgrading Myself
Shao Bingshan had originally had a good impression of Di Jiu. When she heard Di Ji’s words, her gaze on him immediately turned cold. “Although you can attract everyone’s attention through sensationalism, cultivators must establish a solid foundation. If you spout nonsense, why should the Dao exist?”
Di Jiu did not intend to take a stand on this issue, but Xi Xili had asked everyone to do so. Yin Yueshu had stared at him and asked, so he had just told the truth. Now that Shao Bingshan had drunk his Starry Sky Tea and had such a facial expression, Di Jiu was very unhappy. “Shao Bingshan, you have your point of view and I have mine. I’m not forcing you to believe me.”
After he said that, Di Jiu snorted coldly. “You are a woman who drinks tea from other people as soon as she comes. The entire world seems to be underneath your feet, which is what I hate the most. I’m downgrading myself by discussing the Alchemy Dao with you because you don’t know alchemy at all.”
“You…” Shao Bingshan suddenly stood up and her face turned green.
Her nature was such that one could beat her and scold her, but one could not degrade her Alchemy Dao or blame her mistake on Alchemy Dao unless one could show her this.
She had drunk Di Jiu’s tea for no reason just now, which made her feel angry and ashamed. For a moment, she was speechless.
Yin Yueshu’s face also turned green. She treated Di Jiu with respect to show him that she valued him and let him slowly change her impression of him. However, Di Jiu had dared rely on her as his support, not even treating Shao Bingshan respectfully.
Shao Bingshan was a Dao Transformation Alchemy Deity who came from the Heavenly Elixir Sect. How could he offend her casually? Immediately, Yin Yueshu thought of Di Jiu’s bad temper. If Di Jiu had been easy to talk to, maybe she would not have fancied him like that. When she thought of this, her anger dissipated again.
Even though Yin Yueshu could endure this, Xi Xili was unhappy. Fairy Yueshu had raised a follower who dared to be really arrogant. He no longer sounded kind to Di Jiu. Instead, he said coldly, “So, Brother Di Jiu can easily use the elixir residue to condense better-quality Dao Transformation Divine Pills?”
Di Jiu had not expected that Yin Yueshu would really take out the Moon Core. It was a pity that she did not have the Sun Core, or he would have taken out the cauldron to start practising alchemy.
However, the value of the Moon Core and the Sun Core was the same. He did not care because he had one. Upon recalling that the Dao fire was not the only flame on him and there were other flames, he realized the Sun Core could also be used for them.
“Senior Brother Ah Jiu, Sister Yueshu even took out the Moon Core. You won’t need the Sun Core, right?” Su Nuo’s tone was sarcastic. She was apparently watching to see how Di Jiu was going to conclude this.
Di Jiu sighed. “In that case, I will tackle it and refine a cauldron of Dao Transformation Divine Pills to show everyone what true alchemy is.”
While saying that, Di Jiu had put away the jade box with the Moon Core.
Xi Xili frowned and said in a cold tone, “Di Jiu, you haven’t started using alchemy yet. Why did you put that away?”
Di Jiu smiled, “Because I know I can definitely refine it and no one will deny it.”
Upon seeing that Xi Xili still had something to say, Yin Yueshu gestured with her hand. “Let him refine it.”
She was not afraid of Di Jiu forcibly taking away her Moon Core. If her Moon Core could be so easily taken away, she would not have lived to this day. She had taken that out because she was hoping to show Di Jiu that sometimes, one shouldn’t go overboard while doing certain things or talking. Then, she would personally help him again to show Di Jiu that he was only following her and not leading her.
Upon seeing that Di Jiu was really ready to start practicing alchemy, everyone went quiet. Shao Bingshan even widened her eyes, and her Spiritual Force focused on Di Jiu’s every action without hesitation.
She would not miss Di Jiu’s subtle performance.
