Strongest Eccentric Consort Chapter 247 – No Matter What, She Would Do It To Her Best Abilities

“This…” Gong Sunheng regained his senses, but the shock on his handsome face didn't completely go away. “What level is your mental strength?”

This question puzzled Lou Qianxue, and she shook her head. “I don't know.”

She had never measured her mental strength.

However, she had practiced the Divine Refinement Scroll, which also trained mental strength, to the second level. She reckoned her mental strength level should not be low.

Gong Sunheng inhaled and then exhaled. He thought of the saying 'Fortune favors fools.'

Of course, he knew it well that the teenage girl in front of him was not foolish. In fact, she was very smart. Otherwise, he would not have chosen her.

“Are you interested in following me to the Alchemy Union to try it out?”

“Now?” Lou Qianxue frowned.

“Now.” Gong Sunheng nodded.

Lou Qianxue withdrew the flames from her palms and looked at him. “You still haven't told me if it's possible to become an alchemist and a refiner at the same time.”

Gong Sunheng's expression turned serious. “Theoretically, it's possible.”

“Theoretically?”

“Yes, theoretically. Because in reality, few do that.”

“Why?” Lou Qianxue did not understand. Being an alchemist and a refiner at the same time could make one self-sufficient and increase one's leverage over others. Is that not good?

“Because one person's mental strength is limited,” Gong Sunheng said in a serious tone. “Hence, spending your effort on too many things may cause you to fail in everything. For example, if an alchemist spends all his effort on refining pills, he will not have time to train his martial skills. Hence, most alchemists will increase their cultivation with pills.

“The people who whole-heartedly aim for the peak of martial arts don't refine pills or weapons either. For example, if the strongest mercenary Leng Qianhan wanted to, it should not be difficult for him to gather 'flame cores' or 'weapon flames' with his Mystic Martial realm expertise. But he didn't. Why? Because he only wants to pursue the martial path!

“So, Qianxue, I'll advise you to not become an alchemist and a refiner at the same time. Doing so will ruin your bright future. To be honest, after seeing your exceptional talent in martial arts, I'm a bit tempted to convince you against refining pills. But… your talent in refining pills is also shocking. So, I'd prefer you to take the alchemist route.”

Lou Qianxue's expression fell.

“I understand what you mean. You're saying that if I want to become an alchemist, then I can forget becoming a refiner and have to put my martial skills to the side. Then, I'll become an expert by taking pills?”

“…” Although it did not sound nice, Gong Sunheng meant exactly that.

He nodded.

Lou Qianxue chuckled. “Don't worry. No matter what it is, I will do everything to my best, whether it's alchemy, martial arts, or even refining weapons.”

She had the Mountain River s.p.a.ce, where time pa.s.sed nine times slower than the outside! This meant that she had nine times more time to learn and train than other people.

Moreover, with the memories of the Alchemy G.o.d and the G.o.d of War, it would be a waste of her natural talents if she only refined pills and gave up on her martial arts.

As for refining weapons…

She was very interested in it as well. Since she had mustered the 'weapon flame', she decided to try it out.

Upon seeing how resolute Lou Qianxue was, even to the extent of being stubborn, Gong Sunheng felt a little disappointed. “Miss Lou, you're so gifted. Why must you ruin your future because of greed?”
