Chapter 559: Mysterious Genius
The person on the other side pondered for a moment before saying apologetically, “I have heard of it before, but I don’t know where I have heard it from. I can only try my best to investigate. Young Master Murong, don’t have too much hope.”
“If you’ve heard of it, it means there’s hope!” Murong Bing didn’t mind.
He initially thought that he had no place to look for that ‘boss’. Now that someone actually said that he knew that person, how could he not be excited?
He hung up and prepared to go back.
However, he had just taken two steps when the butler at home called. He picked it up, and his expression changed. “What? My mother fainted again?!”
The butler quickly consoled her. “Everything is fine now. That’s why I called you. Madam was saved by an expert along the way…”
Murong Bing was relieved to hear that his mother was fine. “It’s good that she is fine. Help me keep an eye on her. I will be back soon.”
…
On Su Huiqing’s side, before the pharmaceutical major students had their lesson, she borrowed the potion room and made the potions that Long Xue needed.
There were not many people in the potion room. Most of them were in their second or third years, and many knew Su Huiqing.
Upon seeing Su Huiqing, most people took a step back.
For a moment, there was hardly anyone around her.
“Tsk, she actually still has the mood to play.” One of them was very familiar with Su Xiao and the rest and knew this matter very well. “If it was me, I would have been too ashamed to come out. I even thought that I could enter the school and be called the number-one freshman by the director. How great was that? In the end, wasn’t I locked up by the enforcement team?”
Previously, when Su Huiqing appeared in school, both freshmen and seniors would give her some face. However, now, such a thing happened.
Everyone knew that this genius Su Huiqing was doomed.
Other than those brainless freshmen who didn’t know how cruel reality overseas was, none of the seniors were afraid of Su Huiqing.
In a few days, this freshman would probably disappear because of her false reputation. Such things were very common in school.
“What a pity.” A second-year boy sighed.
“What’s there to pity?” His roommate shook his head. “Although she is talented, talent isn’t enough as long as she is here overseas. She also needs a brain. She probably hasn’t experienced any setbacks since she was young. Such a person won’t stay overseas for long.”
The others listened and didn’t retort because it was the truth.
Su Huiqing had good potential, but that was all.
With Su Huiqing’s hearing ability, she naturally heard such words. However, she didn’t show any signs of abnormality. She just adjusted the test tube in her hand.
Every student in the school had a potion class, but not everyone could go.
Everyone thought that Su Huiqing was just here to take a look. No one really thought that she knew how to refine potions.
Only a girl beside her glanced at Su Huiqing cautiously. She saw that Su Huiqing was missing a test tube and carefully handed it to her.
Su Huiqing was worried about the test tube when a young lady appeared in front of her. She glanced sideways and saw a young lady looking at her.
“Oh, thank you.” Su Huiqing took the test tube and smiled warmly at her.
The young lady immediately waved her hand, probably to say ‘no thanks’. Her face turned red.
Su Huiqing didn’t care. Her speed of refining potions had always been beyond Yu Xiangyang’s reach.
She didn’t waste a single herb. In the end, she placed the successfully refined potion into two bottles.
Just as she was about to leave, she paused and took out a bottle of potion. She handed it to the girl who had passed her the test tube.
The girl looked up in shock.
Su Huiqing pressed her lips together. “This is for you. Don’t tell anyone.”
She then stuffed the potion into the girl’s hands and left with her hands in her pockets.
The girl stood there with her mouth agape. She stared at Su Huiqing’s departing figure for a long time.
After that, her mind wandered for the entire lesson. When the potion teacher saw that it was his beloved disciple, he instantly didn’t say anything.
However, after class, he asked that student to stay and spoke to her with a stern face, “Although you are talented, if you work harder, you can become the disciple of a master from the miracle doctor’s sect. You can’t be proud. Look at what you are doing during this lesson? Dazing at a bottle?”
The girl lowered her head in shame. “Teacher, I’m sorry. It won’t happen again.”
Seeing that the girl obediently admitted her mistake, the teacher sighed. “It’s good that you know your mistake. Don’t do this again.”
With that, he wanted to leave, but he was also curious about what his favorite student was looking at. Thus, he turned back and saw that his disciple had already opened that small bottle.
Before he could see what was in the bottle, the strong smell emitted from it.
As a potion teacher, he had been in contact with potions for longer than those potion makers.
So when he smelled that scent, he knew that it was a mid-level potion!
However, this strong smell must be a high-level potion!
The teacher immediately poured out a little and placed it on the school’s specialized equipment for testing.
The girl looked at the teacher in confusion. She didn’t know why the other party wanted to do this. She had just come into contact with potions and naturally didn’t understand the wonders of this potion.
Moreover, although she admired Su Huiqing, she didn’t think she could make the potion in twenty minutes.
However, just as she thought about this, two numbers immediately appeared on the screen of the test potion: [92]
…92.
This 92% purity was a rare occurrence in the history of potions. The teacher’s hand trembled. He suddenly turned his head and pressed on his student’s shoulder, asking anxiously, “Luo Si, who gave you this potion?”
Luo Si was stunned. Although she didn’t know about this potion, she could tell from her teacher that this potion wasn’t simple.
The teacher had always been calm. After all, he was a teacher. This was the second time she saw her teacher so agitated.
The first time was when he heard the Void Island taking out a top-grade potion.
She had many thoughts, but she still followed Su Huiqing’s orders and didn’t say her name. She just slowly kept the potion and looked at her teacher. “I don’t know. When I came, this potion appeared on my table.”
Luo Si had always been an obedient student. Even a teacher would not expect her to lie.
Thus, he believed what Luo Si said.
The teacher didn’t ask further. Instead, he checked the tools on Luo Si’s table and found a used test tube. He diluted it with water and placed it on the test potion.
A familiar 92 appeared on the screen.
The teacher had confirmed that this potion must have come from their potion maker before. The person even used the potion room. This potion was even refined on the spot. “Luo Si, you have always been the first to come. Did you see anyone else when you came?”
