The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 167:Testing Her

"Xiao Li’s mouth has become more powerful lately. I am happy. This way, you will be able to speak nonsense like me." Bai Xifeng clapped her hands feeling proud.

Hu Meifeng was speechless. Then she looked at Bai Xifeng.

"Are you her? Daughter of General Bai?" Hu Meifeng asked.

"What? Am I not trustworthy?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"If Master wears her face while saying that, I might believe in you." Yu Xiaohui interrupted the conversation.

Bai Xifeng coughed several times. Well, she forgot that she did not put away the illusion. She immediately dismantled the illusion.

"Well, I just forget." Bai Xifeng covered her embarrassment.

"I see... You are Bai Xifeng, the famous trash." Hu Meifeng said to herself.

"Meifeng, do you forget that I am still here?" Bai Xifeng glanced at Hu Meifeng.

Hu Meifeng looked at Bai Xifeng and grinned. "Sorry, I can not wrap my mind that you are that Bai Xifeng."

"Well, it does not matter if you believe or not. I am her." Bai Xifeng said.

"Then, if you want to meet your family you should go and tell them straightly that you want to meet with them." Hu Meifeng said.

"It would not be fun." Bai Xifeng grinned.

....

Bai Xifeng and others did not go outside. They began cultivating inside their room. People from other places began to come here to participate in the recruitment.

The recruitment process will be held on the next day. Bai Xifeng was ready to join it. She told her subordinates to wait there.

They were allowed to do anything they wanted. They just needed to take care of themselves.

The next day, Bai Xifeng came out with her face. However, she still wore men’s clothes. So, she looked like a young boy from a noble family.

As she approached the place, she could see many people. These people wanted to join the military too.

Bai Xifeng wanted to walk past the crowd. However, she noticed that someone had his leg stuck out for some reason.

Bai Xifeng did not want to attract attention. So, she stepped crossing the leg. She did not even touch the leg.

Then, a scream could be heard. Everyone turned to the source. A young man was holding his legs.

"What is going on here?" Someone asked.

"Someone stepped onto my foot." A young man cried out loud.

"What?"

People began to look around. There was a soldier coming over after hearing the scream.

"What is going on here?" The soldier asked.

"Someone stepped onto my foot. That person probably wants to sabotage me." The young man said. "Sir, please give me a justice." He begged the soldier.

"Then, do you want any idea who step onto your foot?" The soldier asked.

"Yes. There he is." The young man pointed his finger in one direction.

Everyone looked in that direction. The person that the young man pointing at was Bai Xifeng.

"Huh? Me?" Bai Xifeng pointed her finger to her face.

"Of course. You step onto my foot. How do you want to pay for this?" The young man said?

Bai Xifeng opened the fan that she had been holding and put it covering her mouth. "Hmm... Do you have any proof that showing it is me who stepped onto your foot?"

"Well, I just see it." The young man said.

"Hmm... It can not be used. It was just only your words against me. It can not be used as a proof." Bai Xifeng closed her fan back.

"I just see it. You are stepping onto my foot." The young man insisted on blaming Bai Xifeng.

"Then, I can tell others that you are the one sticking your foot out to be stepped." Bai Xifeng said.

"Bullshit." The young man shouted.

"Hmm... If it is true that your foot had been stepped on by me, please show me your foot. Let me check it." Bai Xifeng changed the approach.

"No. I don’t believe you. You might do something else later." The young man shook his head not allowing Bai Xifeng to check on his foot.

If he allowed Bai Xifeng to do that, his lying would be exposed. He did not know that this young boy had a sharp mouth.

"Then, let another pharmacist check on you." Bai Xifeng said. "It must be a pharmacist around."

A middle-aged man came forward. He looked at Bai Xifeng and the young man.

"What?" The young man was panicked.

A middle-aged man wanted to check on the young man. However, the young man stood up and wanted to run away.

People began to understand the situation. The young man probably framed the young boy. For what reason, they did not know about that matter.

Bai Xifeng smiled. Then the young man missed his step and fell down.

"Who does this to me?" The young man shouted.

"What? Are you saying your fall is someone doing again?"

"We did not close to you. And everyone is watching you. We did not see anyone push you or whatsoever."

"So, he wants to frame that young boy?"

"People like him should be not admitted to the military. It would bring harm."

"Yes. We are here to join the military."

The man was feeling humiliated. He stood up. Even though he was tired, he needed to run away. He just needed to scam some money. Bai Xifeng looked rich which was why he picked up her to be his victim.

A middle-aged man looked at Bai Xifeng. It seemed what she had done had been caught by dealing with that young man.

A middle-aged man approached Bai Xifeng.

"Are you pharmacists?" The middle-aged man asked.

"Yes." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"Good. You can follow me." The middle-aged man said.

"Huh? Where?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"This is Sir Wu Pengfei, our pharmacist here." The soldier introduced the middle-aged man to Bai Xifeng.

"Oh..." Bai Xifeng saluted him.

"Follow me." Wu Pengfei said again.

"Yes, Sir." Bai Xifeng nodded.

It seemed Wu Pengfei brought Bai Xifeng into the military ground, specifically at their pharmacy.

"Sit here." Wu Pengfei said.

Bai Xifeng nodded and took a seat. Wu Pengfei disappeared behind the cabinet. After a while, he came back with a bunch of herbs in his arms. He put them in front of Bai Xifeng.

"Do you know these herbs?" Wu Pengfei asked.

"Yes." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"Then, state their name and their uses." Wu Pengfei asked.

Bai Xifeng began to state the names of the herbs and their uses. It seemed Bai Xifeng had been tested.

"Then, make a recovery potion for me." Wu Pengfei asked.

"Okay. May I borrow a cauldron?" Bai Xifeng asked.

Wu Pengfei nodded. So, Bai Xifeng began to refine the herbs to make the elixir. After getting struck by lightning the other day, Bai Xifeng asked Su Jinhai a question after that.

She was wondering if she would be struck by the lightning whenever she was refining the elixir.

Su Jinhai told her it would be fine if she would just refine a normal elixir. The thundercloud might appear if she tried to refine a complicated elixir.

Hearing that, Bai Xifeng was relieved. Otherwise, even she would be scared to be struck by the lightning so often.

Wu Pengfei was watching Bai Xifeng refining the elixirs. Everything was normal at the beginning. Then he ended up in shock after watching Bai Xifeng start to put the herbs inside the cauldron.

The fire control was also insane. He did not know the fire would be controlled like that.

At first, he thought the elixir would fail. But his jaws dropped down when the medicinal smell came from the cauldron.

Bai Xifeng started to put the elixir into the bottle. She noticed the quantity of her elixirs increased after she reached the fifth-rank pharmacist.

Seeing Bai Xifeng keep filling the bottle with her elixir, until it reached twenty bottles, once again Wu Pengfei was shocked. He stood up and looked inside the cauldron.

"How many?" Wu Pengfei asked.

"Hmm... Probably about 15 more bottles." Bai Xifeng nodded.

Wu Pengfei kept staring at the elixir in the cauldron.

"This elixir is 100% efficient. No impurities at all." Wu Pengfei did not know what to feel anymore.

Who this young boy was? How did he do this?

"Who is your master?" Wu Pengfei asked.

"Hmm... I am sorry, Sir Wu. My master prohibits me from mentioning his name to anyone." Bai Xifeng used the same excuse that she used back then.
