The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 113: Gift of the Pill

When Su Jingzhen heard Luo Yuebai’s words, his expression changed slightly.

He only knew that Feng Qingya had mentioned that the Breaking Through Adversity Pill could have an effect comparable to a third-grade or even fourth-grade pill under certain circumstances.

However, Feng Qingya had never mentioned that the difficulty of refining this pill was comparable to that of a third-grade pill.

‘I had thought that even with dozens of medicinal materials, I couldn’t refine it, and it turns out there was such a reason,’ Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.

Just then, without waiting for Su Jingzhen to say anything, Luo Yuebai suddenly spoke up: “Friend Su, would you be willing to part with this Breaking Through Adversity Pill and sell it to me? Don’t worry, I’ll definitely offer a higher price than the market value. I just want to celebrate your promotion to a second-grade alchemist and keep it as a memento.”

As he spoke, Luo Yuebai’s eyes were fixed on the jade bottle in Su Jingzhen’s hand, filled with anticipation.

Su Jingzhen, however, smiled faintly and casually tossed the jade bottle to Luo Yuebai.

“I’ve been staying here for free, and I’ve been troubling you to send me to Clear Wind Mountain. What’s the point of talking about buying and selling? Since you like this pill medicine, I’ll just give it to you.”

Perhaps this Breaking Through Adversity Pill was extremely valuable to many people.

But Su Jingzhen was now a second-grade alchemist, and as long as he had enough medicinal materials, he could mass-produce this pill.

Moreover, he was clear that one couldn’t always receive without giving back.

Up until now, Luo Yuebai might have only discovered some extraordinary aspects of him and wanted to pull him in, hence the constant flattery.

Although he had previously been forced to join forces with the Evil Moon Sect after killing Chen Jinshi and Cao Qing, he had been enjoying the benefits brought by the sect without giving back.

After receiving the jade bottle, Luo Yuebai’s face also revealed a hint of surprise.

“In that case, I should be grateful,” he said.

As his words fell, Su Jingzhen suddenly saw a line of golden characters flashing before his eyes.

?Emotional Connection +2?

?Emotional Connection +2?

?Remaining usable points: 119?

It seemed that he had triggered a double emotional connection with Luo Yuebai.

This again made Su Jingzhen feel a sense of wonder.

He then looked up at the sky, where the night was gradually deepening.

Su Jingzhen said, “It’s getting late, and I’ve exhausted a lot of energy refining this Breaking Through Adversity Pill. I think I’ll take a rest.”

After all, there was an emotional connection between the two, and Su Jingzhen still felt a bit uneasy about this relationship.

In this atmosphere, he didn’t want to linger with Luo Yuebai.

Luo Yuebai smiled and nodded: “If you need anything, feel free to come find me. In the Evil Moon Sect of Linjiang City, my words carry weight.”

Su Jingzhen nodded and didn’t say anything more.

He directly returned to his room.

Luo Yuebai remained standing in the courtyard for a few seconds, then smiled, his mouth curving upwards.

“This Friend Su is indeed becoming more and more surprising.”

As he muttered to himself, Luo Yuebai glanced at the jade bottle in his hand, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The night passed quietly.

The next morning, before dawn, Su Jingzhen had just opened his eyes when he saw the golden characters floating in front of him again.

?Days until the host’s Dantian is permanently shattered: 491!?

?Fixed daily points: Shuang Jiang: 15, Zhang Xiu: 4, Feng Qingya: 2, Luo Yuebai: 2?

?Remaining usable points: 142?

The daily fixed points had become the main source of Su Jingzhen’s current points.

Every time he saw these points, he felt a sense of excitement.

“Today, I should go to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion again.”

Muttering to himself, Su Jingzhen took out the alchemy furnace again.

He still had 39 sets of Breaking Through Adversity Pill materials on hand, and he took out 9 sets.

“Just these will do. Let’s see how many I can refine.”

Every time he went to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, he needed to have something in hand to feel confident.

However, since he had successfully refined the Breaking Through Adversity Pill yesterday, today’s operation seemed much smoother.

At least, he was now quite experienced in controlling the fire and timing the fusion of the medicinal materials.

Half an hour later, the 9 sets of materials had been transformed into 3 Breaking Through Adversity Pills by Su Jingzhen.

“A 30% success rate is indeed too low.”

Muttering to himself, Su Jingzhen directly placed the 3 Breaking Through Adversity Pills into the jade bottle.

He then pushed open the door and walked out of the courtyard.

“Greetings, Daoist… Master Su!”

Just as he walked out of his small courtyard, he happened to meet Yan Xia.

She was covered in sweat and looked extremely exhausted.

Su Jingzhen’s expression showed a hint of curiosity: “Are you practicing martial arts?”

Yan Xia smiled bitterly: “I’m sorry to make Master Su laugh, but I have to improve my strength somehow.”

Su Jingzhen nodded silently and didn’t say anything more.

He then quickly left the courtyard.

Seeing this, the light in Yan Xia’s eyes dimmed again.

As a servant, she didn’t even have the qualification to call him “Daoist friend”.

When Su Jingzhen’s figure completely disappeared from her line of sight, Yan Xia gritted her teeth, and a hint of stubbornness appeared in her eyes.

She then began to perform some special movements in the courtyard.

Her body was light and agile, her movements flowing like a cloud, and she seemed to possess a certain beauty.

As for Yan Xia’s matter, Su Jingzhen didn’t have any feelings about it and didn’t put it in his heart.

He quickly walked past the mountain gate of the Evil Moon Sect and returned to the main street.

Today, the main street was even more deserted, with more and more shops closed.

It was clear that people were still fleeing.

Su Jingzhen estimated that Luo Yuebai was giving the cultivators in Linjiang City time, and the Evil Moon Sect wouldn’t force them to stay.

With a sense of wonder, Su Jingzhen arrived at the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

This time, he didn’t choose to disguise himself and directly went upstairs with his true face.

This scene shocked the scattered cultivators in the first-floor hall.

“Is that Su Jingzhen from Peach Blossom Alley?”

“I didn’t expect him to have the permission to go up to the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.”

“Hehe, he’s now a popular figure in the Evil Moon Sect. Even if it’s just because of the Evil Moon Sect, going up to the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion isn’t a big deal.”

“That’s not right.”

“At the Huayang Sect’s awakening ceremony, he killed the Foundation Establishment cultivator Cao Qing. He’s qualified to go up to the second floor.”

“…”

As the crowd discussed, Su Jingzhen had already gone up to the second floor.

However, this time, he didn’t see Feng Qingya immediately.

The chairs at the staircase were empty.

Su Jingzhen raised an eyebrow, but didn’t choose to search around.

He casually found a chair and sat down, waiting quietly.

He knew that the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion had a small-scale spirit gathering array, which would collect the spiritual energy and alert Feng Qingya.

His arrival would surely be discovered by Feng Qingya soon.

After all, Feng Qingya was the manager of this place and wouldn’t be able to stay here 24 hours a day waiting for him.
