New Father: Empress Appearing On My Doorstep With Our Daughters Chapter 167 - It's Indeed Easy!

Chapter 167: It’s Indeed Easy!

Originally, Wen Junyao had never had the intention to compete for the family head position.

However, the situation was pressing. The Wen family treated her as Wen Qi’s compet.i.tor and wanted to kill her.

How could she not see the vigilance and killing intent in Lu Zhongling, Wen Taibo, and even Wen Qi’s eyes?

As for her, she was chased all the way and was almost raped and killed.

All of this was planned by her respected aunt, Lu Zhongling, and her second uncle, Wen Taibo.

Her mother, He Fang, was also forced to commit suicide because of these people.

Although they were all saved now, this was only because Lin Xuan was present.

If Lin Xuan left, Wen Junyao was certain that the Wen family would do everything possible to kill the two of them.

In that case, it was better to take the initiative to counterattack!

“You want to compete with me?”

Wen Qi was stunned when he heard Wen Junyao’s words.

He did not expect his gentle sister to dare to challenge him in public.

On second thought, he couldn’t help but feel smug.

As early as five years ago, he was able communicate with the Divine Farmer Cauldron and make it flash with three golden lights.

The three golden lights represented a tacit understanding between him and w.a.n.g Ding.

And yesterday, Wen Junyao had only made the Divine Farmer Cauldron flash with one golden light.

It was three to one. There was no need to think too much to know who was better!

Lu Zhongling and Wen Taibo were also slightly shocked by Wen Junyao’s words.

Then, their eyes could not help but reveal a hint of killing intent.

They had long discovered ruthlessness in Wen Junyao’s bones.

However, they did not expect this girl to counterattack so quickly!

“Fortunately, Qi’er’s alchemy attainments are very extraordinary. He’s not afraid of this little b.i.t.c.h’s challenge!”

Lu Zhongling quickly revealed a smug expression.

Alchemy cultivation was harder than ascending to the heavens.

Apart from his natural talent, there were four other extremely important factors behind the cultivation of his superior pill refinement techniques.

Fortune, companionship, law, and land!

Fortune meant money and wealth.

Companions referred to protectors or Dao companions.

Law referred to the methods.

Land referred to the venue for pill refinement.

Because she had obtained the position of the acting head of the Wen family, Lu Zhongling had helped Wen Qi greatly over the years.

Other than the Dao companion, the entire family’s wealth, alchemy scriptures, and alchemy artifacts were all used by him.

And after the family head died, Wen Junyao’s status plummeted. She could not touch any of these resources!

Lu Zhongling was absolutely confident that Wen Qi would definitely be able to kick Wen Junyao out of the Wen family!

“This girl doesn’t know her limits!”

The Wen family’s elders and other higher-ups present shook their heads at Wen Junyao.

Seeing everyone’s doubts about Wen Junyao, He Fang hurriedly pulled her back. “Junyao, don’t be rash!”

Wen Junyao said firmly,

“This matter will be settled sooner or later. Why don’t we have a fair compet.i.tion with Wen Qi while the Consort is present?!”

When Wen Qi heard that, he said loudly, “Alright, please be the witness, Consort!”

He thought to himself, “Wen Junyao challenged me in public.”

If he didn’t agree, it would be difficult to convince everyone even if he became the family head in the future.

Furthermore, he was confident that with his strength, he could definitely beat up Wen Junyao, this arrogant girl.

Lu Zhongling nodded as well. “Since you’ve all decided, let’s decide the winner in one round!”

All the elders and higher-ups of the Wen family bowed to Lin Xuan at the same time. “Consort, please be the witness!”

“Sure.” At this point, Lin Xuan simply nodded in agreement.

Then, Lin Xuan was arranged to sit in the armchair in the center of the hall.

Lu Zhongling and the others stood at the side.

The middle seat was left for Wen Junyao and Wen Qi to spar on the spot.

Wen Qi said confidently, “Just name a pill and we’ll use it to compete.”

Currently, he was already able to refine low-grade heaven-rank medicinal pills.

This was already extremely impressive at his age.

According to his previous understanding, Wen Junyao could only refine medium-grade Earth-rank medicinal pills at most.

Wen Junyao shook her head and said, “Go ahead.”

She felt that if she could defeat Wen Qi with the pill Wen Qi proposed, she would be able to intimidate these people from the Wen family.

Hearing her words, Lu Zhongling and Wen Taibo clearly thought of this as well, and the killing intent in their eyes immediately grew stronger.

Wen Qi took a deep breath and nodded.

“Alright! Then let’s refine an Emperor Extremity Pill each and compete to see whose is better!”

“Yes!” Wen Junyao nodded.

The Emperor Extremity Pill was a medicinal pill that all alchemy cultivators had to learn.

Although this medicinal pill was very common, the refinement process required extremely high talent and technique.

Although the success rate was very high, it was very easy to change its grade accidentally.

For example, the Emperor Extremity Pill that could originally be refined into a high-grade Earth-rank pill might become a medium-grade or even low-grade Earth-rank pill because of a mistake.

Therefore, refining the Emperor Extremity Pill was very challenging.

It would also allow them to better distinguish who was more outstanding between her and Wen Qi!

Lu Zhongling said at this moment, “Someone, prepare two cauldrons of the same quality and the same amount of herbs for them.”

Wen Junyao’s expression remained unchanged.

She believed that with Lin Xuan around, Lu Zhongling definitely wouldn’t dare to play any tricks.

Soon, all the furnace and herbs were prepared and distributed to the two of them.

“Let’s begin!”

After Lu Zhongling finished speaking, Wen Junyao and Wen Qi started refining pills.

During this process, everyone realized that Wen Qi was extremely skilled, while Wen Junyao was relatively slow.

This made Lu Zhongling and the others nod to themselves.

Wen Qi was indeed worthy of being the Wen family’s successor. His performance at the scene was worthy of the family’s nurturing.

Phew ~

About five minutes later, the furnace in front of Wen Qi was the first to diffuse with an aroma.

Everyone sniffed carefully and revealed looks of admiration.

“This pill is fragrant and has a pure taste. It’s definitely not inferior to a low-grade heaven-rank pill!”

“To be able to refine a heaven-rank medicinal pill in just five minutes, he’s indeed very talented!”

Facing everyone’s praise, Wen Qi was overjoyed. He took out the pill and raised it high.

Everyone focused their gazes and could not help but praise him even more.

“Heavens, it’s a medium-grade heaven-rank Emperor Extremity Pill!”

“Impressive! Impressive!”

When it reached the medium-grade heaven-rank, the Emperor Extremity Pill was light purple. Its grade could be seen from its appearance.

Phew!!

Just as Wen Qi was holding the medium-grade heaven-rank Emperor Extremity Pill and looking at Wen Junyao proudly, she actually finished refining it too.

This fragrance was even more fragrant than the Emperor Extremity Pill in Wen Qi’s hand.

When everyone smelled it, they revealed shocked expressions.

They had a strong feeling that Wen Junyao’s Emperor Extremity Pill was better than Wen Qi’s!

“I’m sorry, you lost!” Wen Junyao then took out the Emperor Extremity Pill and raised it for everyone to see.

Swish!

Instantly, everyone cried out in shock.

“Pure purple, this is a high-grade heaven-rank Emperor Extremity Pill!”

“My G.o.d, how is this possible?”

“The success rate of a high-grade heaven-rank Emperor Extremity Pill is one in a thousand. Furthermore, how did she refine it in such a short time?”

At this moment, not only Lu Zhongling, Wen Taibo, and Wen Qi, but the entire Wen family’s upper echelons were stunned.

With the same materials and the same furnace, Wen Junyao could actually refine a high-grade heaven-rank Emperor Extremity Pill.

This clearly showed that she was more talented than Wen Qi!

And it was just yesterday that she could only make the Divine Farmer Cauldron emit a golden light that was far inferior to Wen Qi’s three golden lights.

In other words, her alchemy attainments yesterday were two levels lower than Wen Qi’s.

How did she become so powerful in a day?

Wen Junyao took in everyone’s expressions and said calmly,

“I know what you’re thinking. You must think that with my talent, I can’t have made such huge progress, right?”

Wen Qi frowned and said, “Of course! What method did you use to instantly surpa.s.s me?”

When he asked this, Lu Zhongling, Wen Taibo, and the others also p.r.i.c.ked up their ears and waited for Wen Junyao to answer.

After all, such a thing was rare.

If they couldn’t understand, they would definitely be unable to eat or sleep in peace!

Wen Junyao smiled and turned to look at Lin Xuan with a respectful expression.

“Although my talent is limited, I’m lucky to have the pill formula personally written by the Consort.”

“It was also this pill formula that allowed me to understand the combination and usage ratio of the herbs for high-grade Saint-rank medicinal pills.”

“From there, it inspired my alchemy comprehension and helped me refine a high-grade heaven-rank Emperor Polar Pill in one go!”

Hearing her words, everyone couldn’t help but look at Lin Xuan with enlightened expressions.

“So she received the Consort’s help. No wonder!”

“The Consort’s alchemy attainments are at the peak. If he wants to help Wen Junyao improve, it will indeed be easy!”
