Chapter 268 Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow
The inner hall of Canaan College.

Mang Tianchi introduced the situation of Canaan College to Qinghuan as if he was showing off. He spoke very clearly and it was hard to tell that he couldn't even find the location of the college before.

There was no need to ask, just looking at the strange expression on the old man's face behind him, one could tell that what Mang Tianchi said was all what he had just inquired about.

Qinghuan didn't say anything either, but just listened with a smile, as if she was listening very seriously.

But gradually, Mang Tianchi couldn't continue. The smile on Qinghuan's face seemed to be sarcastic no matter how he looked at it... Well, with this guy's cleverness, how could he not guess it?

"cough--"

Mang Tianchi sighed awkwardly and said, "For details, you can ask Su Qian later... He is the one who will manage the academy for me."

He pointed to the old man behind him, a three-star Dou Zong.

Qing Huan smiled and nodded, saying, "Greetings, Great Elder Su Qian."

Su Qian bowed quickly: "I dare not, since Mr. Qinghuan is the dean's...friend regardless of age, Canaan College is your home!"

Su Qian said the three words "friendship regardless of age" with great difficulty.

Especially since the dean said that if this young man really fought, even the dean would suffer, which made Su Qian hard to believe...

But what he had seen before could not be fake. Dou Zong and a group of Dou Huang were just like sandbag toys in his hands.

"Alright, alright, Qing Huan has the same personality as me, and doesn't like these polite formalities."

Mang Tianchi asked impatiently: "By the way, does the academy collect medicinal herbs? Is there a lot?"

Su Qian was at a loss for a moment, then said with a smile: "Dean, the academy has an alchemy department. I have introduced you to Elder Huo of the alchemy department before. He is a fifth-grade alchemist."

Mang Tianchi seemed to have just remembered something, and muttered: "That old man? He's only at the fifth rank at such an old age?"

Su Qian kept silent.

Mang Tianchi also realized that he had said something wrong, and coughed, saying, "Qinghuan wants to make medicine, so you can sort out the herbs and let him choose whatever he wants... Also take this opportunity to ask for any elixir you want, this is a golden opportunity!"

Su Qian was stunned and said, "So Mr. Qing Huan is also a pharmacist... I wonder what kind of elixir you want to make? What medicinal materials do you need?"

Qing Huan grinned and said, "Great Elder, let's just go our separate ways. I'm not used to your behavior... As for the elixir, I'll make whatever elixir I can find."

Su Qian didn't expect this kind of answer and was speechless for a moment.

Mang Tianchi added casually, "Oh, by the way, Qing Huan is an eighth-grade alchemist, so if you have any good stuff, don't hide it. This is the only chance to ask an eighth-grade alchemist for pills. If you miss it this time, I won't be able to ask for it a second time!"

"Eight...eighth grade?" Su Qian exclaimed in disbelief.

Qinghuan nodded with a smile.

……

The time for refining the medicine was postponed to one month later, which was the result of Su Qian's hard work.

He wanted to take this opportunity to send all the elders and teachers from the inner and outer courtyards to collect as many medicinal herbs as possible.

Qinghuan agreed and temporarily stayed at Canaan College.

The inner courtyard has its own complete system. Even if all the elders leave, it will not affect the operation of the inner courtyard.

Mang Tianchi was in trouble. Under Su Qian's pleading, he had to take on the responsibilities of the dean and was so busy that he was rarely seen every day.

Thanks to Mang Tianchi and Su Qian, everything in Canaan College is open to Qinghuan. Taking this opportunity, Qinghuan wandered around the inner courtyard and felt the atmosphere of Canaan College.

There are cliques and factions in the inner courtyard, which is not much different from the outside, except that it is more harmonious.

All the students have to do is earn fire energy, enter the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower to practice, and then continue to earn fire energy and continue to practice...in an endless cycle.

Cultivation is the only theme.

This made Qinghuan feel a bit bored, so she just stayed in the library and read books to kill time.

Until Xiao Yan found him.

... "Gu Xun'er wants to treat me to a meal?"

Qing Huan put down the book in his hand and said with a strange look: "Or cook it yourself? Are you sure?"

Xiao Yan laughed dryly and said, "To be precise, you are inviting both of us."

Qing Huan thought for a moment and said, "How about you go first and lead the charge, and if you survive, I'll go later?"

Xiao Yan blurted out: "You are too disloyal!"

Qing Huan asked back, "Do you have confidence in her cooking skills? A grown lady suddenly has to cook by herself. Not to mention the weasel paying New Year's greetings to the chicken... Is the food she cooks really edible?"

Xiao Yan was speechless. Didn’t he have the same concerns?
As far as I can remember, Xun'er never seemed to have touched any kitchenware...

With a conflicted look on his face, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and said, "You will come with me in three days, and we will die together!"

Qing Huan said decisively: "She is your woman. No matter what kind of food she cooks, it is only natural for you to bear the responsibility. Why should I take this risk?
It's just a meal, why wait three days?"

Xiao Yan hung his head and said, "Xun'er said that she sent people out to look for food a few days ago, but she only got the news today. The food can only be shipped back in three days."

Qing Huan asked curiously, "Why go to so much trouble...what ingredients are they?"

Xiao Yan thought about it and said in confusion: "It seems to be the Violent Silver Fang, Sky Fire Bird, Earth Forest Elephant, Wind Demon Ape..."

"Gudong!" A sound of swallowing saliva was heard.

Xiao Yan looked at Qing Huan strangely.

Qing Huan's expression remained unchanged, and she said, "It seems that she is still very sincere. Let's go early in three days, so as not to let her waste the food!"

Xiao Yan: "..."

Qinghuan couldn't do anything about it.

The Violent Silver Fang is a sixth-level magical beast with dragon blood. It has a violent temper. As the saying goes, "anger hurts the liver." The liver of the Violent Silver Fang is absolutely delicious and can even be called a "dragon liver"!
The Skyfire Bird is a sixth-level bird-like monster that cannot fly due to being overweight. Legend has it that it has the blood of a phoenix. Its overweight is not due to too much meat, but too heavy bones. Some even say that magma flows in its bones... If its bone marrow could be stewed into soup, it would deserve the name "Phoenix Marrow".

The Earth Forest Elephant is a fifth-tier elephant-like monster that uses its trunk to crack the ground and crush rocks.

The Wind Demon Ape is a fifth-level magical beast with wind attributes. It is called an ape, but it is actually an orangutan. When it opens its mouth and spits, a strong wind will suddenly rise.

Dragon liver, phoenix marrow, elephant trunk, ape lips!
According to legend, when the Queen Mother held the Peach Banquet, "the joy surpassed the six realms of desire and was more beautiful than the eight delicacies plate", which included these four things.

In this case, how could Qinghuan miss it?
A sixth-level magical beast that could already speak human language, Qinghuan would naturally not actively hunt and eat it, but she had heard Mang Tianchi mention it before, and she still remembered the look of aftertaste on his face.

But if the ingredients are prepared by someone else, then you’re welcome.

Let alone hypocrisy, Mencius said: "Seeing it alive, I cannot bear to see it die; hearing its cry, I cannot bear to eat its meat. Therefore, a gentleman stays away from the kitchen."

……

While imagining the delicious food, Qing Huan accidentally glanced at Xiao Yan and saw that he seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Qing Huan asked curiously, "Why are you being so shy like a woman?"

Xiao Yan hesitated, then smiled bitterly and said, "I would like to ask you to help me practice a secret method, a fighting skill... Originally, my teacher said that he would teach me, but now that my teacher is gone, I think you are the only one who can help me!"

Qing Huan asked curiously, "What secret fighting technique? Can't you practice it yourself?"

Xiao Yan looked around, the meaning was self-evident.

Qing Huan thought about it, stood up and put the book back on the shelf, and said, "Let's go, find a quiet place."

Xiao Yan hurriedly said: "Come with me, I have already chosen a place."

Seeing Xiao Yan being so cautious, Qing Huan guessed that what he wanted to learn was not simple.

At least it cannot be revealed to outsiders.

As for why only Qinghuan... I have already seen the Fen Jue, how could there be any other fighting secret method more precious than this?
