Black Bellied Belle: Demon Lord, Bite The Bait Please

Chapter 21.2: Golden Red Elixir Flames

Bai Zhi Yan coughed twice to lend relief to the awkward atmosphere. "Young Master Qing..... err..... doesn’t seem to understand it all that well. It works like this. As every single person possess a different level of gift, so at the moment of birth, infants undergo a test to ascertain how gifted they are. Some people possess prodigious gift in the area of alchemy while some others would be more gifted in martial cultivation."

"Regardless whether it is in alchemy or martial prowess, they are differentiated into high and low grades. Like for alchemists for example, their grades are Gold, Silver, Bronze and above that would be Platinum, White Silver and Green Bronze. The Bronze grade is the lowest level and they need to rely on Beast Fire or its equivalent as a source of fire when they practice alchemy. When one attains the Silver level, they would then be able to slowly garner their own Elixir Fire."

After that explanation, Qing Yu was finally able to understand.

So that was how the grading of alchemists worked in this world.

"Then, what grade are you at already?" Qing Yu asked as she looked at the man in front of her. She knew that the man was an alchemist.

Bai Zhi Yan smiled and a highly intense silver flame suddenly sprouted from his fingertip. "I have just advanced into White Silver."

"Then you would considered to be a very great alchemist already." Qing Yu said as she nodded her head.

"Young Master Qing’s proficiency in Medicine is at a much higher level than mine and I think you must already be at the Platinum grade....." The smile on Bai Zhi Yan’s face suddenly congealed. The blinding flickering red flame caused him to be stunned for a moment.

"Is that what Platinum grade fire..... looks like? But based on what you said earlier, it should be golden in colour....." Qing Yu said in puzzlement as she looked at the little golden red flame on her fingertip.

That fire had been with her all the way since her previous life and it had gained spirit consciousness. Having released it out like this, it was like a child who had been locked up for a long time, highly active and lively, moving around on her hand, and even bouncing a time or two intermittently.

Bai Zhi Yan was shocked beyond words, and he was unable to speak at all at that moment.

"Could that Elixir Fire possibly have gained its own spirit consciousness?" Although Lou Jun Yao was not an alchemist, but he had seen Bai Zhi Yan cultivate and refine medicines so many times. His Elixir Fire was not so lively and the colour in this one was..... really rarely seen.

Seeing that he had been able to tell, Qing Yu did not try to conceal it. "That’s right. This little fella has been with me for a very long time, and is capable of human emotions."

As she had thought, she shouldn’t have let it come out. That playful little fire source was twirling around her fingers in circles, from one finger onto the next, zipping around happily.

It went on for awhile, and it must have sensed that its Mistress was getting a little impatient before it showed some restraint, coming to a stop on her palm and did not move anymore.

Bai Zhi Yan looked like he had been dealt a devastating blow as his face turned sorrowful and highly despondent. "It’s really..... so infuriating to be compared with other people....."

He was afterall well and proper recognized as the most gifted prodigy among the Divine Healers Sect but when compared to this young lad, he paled in comparison completely.

Lou Jun Yao’s gaze grew deep as it darkened. ’Is Young Master Qing also from the Cloud Heaven?"

It was the second time she had heard that unfamiliar name.

Qing Yu cast a glance at Bai Zhi Yan. The first time had been him asking her the same thing.

"I do not know what this Cloud Heaven both of you have spoken of really is. I only know that this is the Green Wave Kingdom and I, grew up here in this place."

"This place is only one among low grade lands." Seeing that the lad really did not know it, Lou Jun Yao still explained it patiently to him. "The place you are in is called the Jade Pearl Continent, where martial cultivation is seen to be slightly more inadequate. The continent is split up three ways, into the Green Wave, Water Edge, and Martial Blue, three kingdoms."

"Above this place is the White Marsh Continent, medium grade lands, where the cultivation of any regular person there is equivalent to a powerful pugilist here. And another level higher up will be the Cloud Heaven."

Qing Yu nodded her head, and immediately arched an eyebrow up. "Seems like you people are people from Cloud Heaven?"
