At this stage, Zhu Ning was full of shame and regret. All these years he had been obsessed with alchemy and researched it all his life, giving it his everything. That was why he detested people who didn't take elixir-refinement seriously.
Previously, Ye Qing's bold claims made Zhu Ning believe that he was just an ignorant layman, and this unfounded dislike of the youth only continued to rise.
But now, Zhu Ning realized that Ye Qing's elixir-refinement standard far surpassed his own. How could he have been so blind and foolish?
He had completely humiliated himself because of his narrow-mindedness.
Zhu Ning hated those who didn't take elixir-refinement seriously but was extremely respectful toward those with exceptional skill.
So now, his tone toward Ye Qing had subconsciously become more respectful.
