If it wasn’t for the fact that he was in the Liu clan, he would’ve definitely pulled Ye Zifeng aside and begged for some advice.
Liu Mu saw that something was wrong and advised Song Shiyun, “Young master Song, all you need to do is be yourself. Don’t listen to this guy.”
Song Shiyun nodded and inserted his qi into the ingredients. He slowly sent ingredients into the cauldron from the center and started to refine the ingredients right when it entered.
Ye Zifeng started to speak again, “That was wrong too. The cauldron is already at its boiling point so you should not have put the ingredients in from the center. It should have entered the cauldron from the sides. Only after you finish inserting your qi into the ingredients would you move it to the center of the cauldron to be refined. The pill that you refine will have a slight burnt smell and will have some fire attribute due to your mistakes!”
“You’re right! It really is like this!” Song Shiyun couldn’t help but yell out.
“That’s right. Don’t blame the ingredients for being bad. Rich kids like you probably all have okay ingredients. The reason why you guys fail is all because of your concocting methods.”
Ye Zifeng deeply sighed and shook is head at Song Shiyun. His expression looked as if he was an elder feeling resentful towards a younger generation for failing to meet expectations. When Song Shiyun heard this, he didn’t feel any anger at all.
“No…. No way. Is my alchemy skills that bad?”
Song Shiyun’s mouth twitched and his eyes were sticking out. His voice was shaking. Since the beginning, all of his problems and difficulties were easily solved and explained by Ye Zifeng.
Right now, his confidence was slowly and gradually disappearing. He couldn’t win against Ye Zifeng.
The most important thing here is that Ye Zifeng didn’t even do anything yet. All he did was talk!
Ye Zifeng smiled and once again reminded Song Shiyun about his mistakes, “Young master Song, you should be careful with the amount of ingredients that you put in. Your common tier flame was recently condense and is very limited. Its usage can’t even be compared to using firewoods. You’re still not used to it at all.”
Song Shiyun slightly nodded his head unconsciously. Without knowing, his head was filled with sweat already.
“Then…. Then what should I do?”
“Young master Song…..” Liu Mu coughed loudly which caused Song Shiyun to come back to his senses.
“I’m…. I’m sorry uncle Liu. I was a bit too nervous.”
From the beginning, Song Shiyun had been listening to Ye Zifeng talk and didn’t even concoct a single pill yet. This made Liu Mu very nervous.
“Shiyun, concoct the pills quickly. You only have half the amount of time left.”
