This…
Darryl calmed down upon hearing her words. He felt a little anxious after some consideration.
Ophelia was right. Darryl would be in danger had the truth of him being able to refine the Heavenly Restoration Pill was revealed during the competition.
They would do everything they could to get their hands on the Heavenly Restoration Pill from Darryl.
Darryl could not help but take a look at Ophelia.
She was truly mature despite being barely older than him. She had properly considered her thoughts and actions.
Ophelia continued, “There’s another reason. This Elixir Competition is organized by the Six Sects. You ’re just a mere Elixir Assistant and not even any of the Six Sects’ disciples. Where will their reputation be had you refined the best pill? That’s why I could not publicly announce you and Isabella as the champion. Don’t worry, I’ll have the Elixir Association send a reward to Isabella according to the standard of a champion once the competition is over.”
Ophelia was filled with admiration for Darryl. He was an absolutely talented man for being able to attract three Elixir Clouds at such a young age.
However, she was not aware that Darryl could not only attract Elixir Clouds but also easily attract thunder and lightning during pill refinement. The condition was he needed enough time and ingredients!
Darryl shrugged his shoulders and said, “Fine, contact Miss Monte once everything is over and issue her reward.”
Ophelia gently nodded her head and smiled. “In all honesty kid, you’re truly a pill refining genius. Are you interested in being my apprentice?”
Being her apprentice?
Darryl could not help but laugh and decisively shook his head. “I’m sorry, I’m not interested.” He left backstage as soon as he finished his words.
Darryl was utterly speechless when he thought back to what had happened during the competition on his journey home.
Damn, today was such a mess.
First, it was Abbess Mother Serendipity who wanted to kill Darryl because of a rumor she heard somewhere.
He then managed to refine the Heavenly Restoration Pill which would clearly help Isabella become the champion but Ophelia said that it could not be announced in the end.
The most amusing of all was that Ophelia even wanted Darryl to be her apprentice.
What elixir pill could he not refine with the Infinite Elixir Manual such that he needed Ophelia to be his mentor? • • • The time was 8pm.
Darryl sat on the sofa after dinner and watched some television with Lily.
Holding his wife while watching television was such a wonderful thing to do after a long and hard day. The matter which made him happiest was Caelan’s phone call before going to bed.
