The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth

100. Slip Away, Wait for the Explosion

Everything was set in motion, and the disciples were led to their respective alchemy furnaces.

Before the alchemy began, Yu Zheng would explain the function of each material and the intricacies of their quantities. His explanations were clear and substantial, providing the disciples with a basic understanding of the alchemy process.

Then, Yu Zheng demonstrated the operation: when to ignite the fire, how to channel spiritual energy, how long to maintain it, and the various stages involved. He explained everything clearly, though it was only a simulation and not a full several-hour process.

“So, I wish you all success,” Yu Zheng said with a smile, then walked among the disciples’ alchemy furnaces, answering questions and offering guidance with dedication.

Meanwhile, at Lin Nuo’s station…

“What’s the use of this, and how much should I add?”

Su Kexin pursed her lips, flipping through the guide, carefully examining each step listed.

Lin Nuo almost laughed, watching her resembled a clueless student conducting an experiment, following the manual step by step, adding materials as instructed.

However, what frustrated Lin Nuo was that, although Su Kexin seemed like a novice following the book, she managed to produce a large golden pill and even grasped the essence of alchemy, which made Lin Nuo marvel at the unreasonable strength of the protagonist.

Mu Yiting, who was in the same group as them, followed the guide just like Su Kexin, operating with caution.

This was the disguise of a top student. Lin Nuo had long realized that Mu Yiting was pretending; she was skilled in alchemy, and this practice was a piece of cake for her. Yet, she feigned ignorance, probably to soon boast about her effortless success with phrases like, “Oh, this is my first time, but I got it.”

Lin Nuo paid them no mind, focusing on his task—placing the black scale stone.

After scanning the guide and understanding the quantity of materials needed, Lin Nuo took them out one by one, placing them on a small plate.

“All the materials used are here; please verify them,” Lin Nuo said, adhering to the cooperative game’s rules and presenting the organized materials to Mu Yiting and Su Kexin for review.

“Um… it should be fine, I guess…” Su Kexin was still uncertain, her response noncommittal.

“Mhm, yes, that’s right. As expected of Senior Brother Lin Nuo, you selected them so quickly.”

Mu Yiting squinted her eyes and smiled, outwardly praising Lin Nuo while inwardly thinking little of it.

“Then I’ll add them.”

Lin Nuo placed the materials into the alchemy furnace, including a black material, and casually added the black scale stone as well.

With a composed expression, he completed the action in one go, as if adding ordinary materials, successfully executing the first step of the plan.

Next was the firing process, using a vigorous flame to smelt the golden pill.

The flame alchemy required several stages, each needing spiritual energy to maintain.

With the lowest spiritual power, Lin Nuo would start the fire. He would maintain the first stage, which was simple and easy for him as a second-tier cultivator.

Next, it was Su Kexin’s turn. She was still a bit nervous, but thinking that this was a team effort, she couldn’t lag behind. Taking a deep breath, she recalled the steps from the guide in her mind, and then began to channel her spirit.

She worked hard, and the results were smooth, successfully passing the second stage.

The third stage was Mu Yiting’s. She wanted to showcase her alchemy talents in front of Lin Nuo, and she too passed the third stage with ease.

Their combined spirit channeling and alchemy progressed smoothly. However, as the spirit control of the fire entered the later stages, Lin Nuo became wary. The black scale stone inside had reached the right conditions and was about to explode; he had to escape.

Yet, not long ago, the alchemy master Yu Zhe had already left the alchemy room.

…

At Tianling Mountain, on the small path of Yufeng Valley.

Yu Zhe had made his way out smoothly, and now he was in a position where he could see the distant alchemy room.

Through his spiritual sense, he saw Mu Yiting still channeling her spirit at the alchemy furnace, with Su Kexin and Lin Nuo assisting her.

Their alchemy was progressing very smoothly, nearing the explosion point of the black scale stone. According to his calculations, when they reached the final stage of alchemy, Mu Yiting’s infusion of spirit into the furnace would definitely detonate the black scale stone, resulting in a catastrophe, turning everything to ashes!

Having infiltrated Xuan Yun Sect for so long, playing the nice alchemist and smiling at these righteous disciples every day, he had had enough. Today, he would finally leave, taking Mu Yiting of the Mu family and those Xuan Yun Sect disciples with him in the explosion.

When he returned, he would be rewarded and would have a place in the underworld.

It was coming soon, very soon, it would explode.

He had prepared the method to record this scene.

…

“I’m feeling unwell in my stomach, you guys keep an eye on things, I’ll be back soon.”

Lin Nuo greeted Su Kexin and Mu Yiting, then walked out of the alchemy room.

Alright, the explosion was imminent, time to hurry.

Lin Nuo walked on the path of Yufeng Valley, now he needed to distance himself from the alchemy room, to witness the upcoming explosive feast.

Su Kexin was doomed.

The protagonist must die, the villain shall rise!
