Chapter 530: Maiden Furnace Vessel
With a swift "whoosh," a giant ape appeared within the light veil, stepping several paces before stopping in front of the kneeling girl.
The faces of the middle-aged cultivators shifted subtly, their expressions tinged with concern as they stared at the puppet.
The girl in the yellow robe opened her slightly reddened bright eyes, gazing at the giant ape before her with a hint of confusion.
"I do not care whether what you say is true or false, or if your situation is truly as pitiful as you claim. But I never act without benefit. I observe that you are still a virgin, and I have reached a bottleneck in my cultivation. Perhaps through the power of dual cultivation, I can break through again. If you are willing to become my furnace vessel, these three 'Prime Origin Pills' in this small jade bottle will be more than enough to heal your father. You may take the pills back to your sect, and enter the formation. I have never forced anyone, nor bullied the weak. If you are unwilling, you may leave now. Just pretend you have never met me," the man said coldly, devoid of any emotion.
At that moment, the giant ape puppet held out a white, warm jade bottle with one hand and brought it before the kneeling girl.
The girl was stunned by these words!
Although young, she understood the meaning of dual cultivation and furnace vessel. A faint blush appeared on her originally pale but lovely face, yet without hesitation, she immediately agreed:
"Very well. As long as it can truly restore my father, I am willing to be your furnace vessel."
Having said this, she stretched out her slender white wrist, took the jade bottle into her hand, and slowly stood up.
"Xing'er! How can you do this? How will I explain this to senior brother when I return?" The middle-aged cultivator was shocked by the girl's words and urgently shouted to stop her.
The other four men and women also changed color and spoke out in protest.
"Senior uncle, please examine the pill in this bottle and see if it can really help my father," the girl said calmly, ignoring the middle-aged cultivator’s anger as she raised her delicate hand and tossed the jade bottle to him.
"You... hey!" The middle-aged cultivator caught the jade bottle and looked helplessly at the girl's expressionless, youthful face. Knowing it was difficult to change her mind, he sighed and opened the jade bottle, pouring out a pale blue pill.
A strange and refreshing fragrance immediately filled the air!
Everyone who smelled the aroma felt invigorated, their body and mind immensely comfortable.
"This is a pill refined from a demonic beast core!" The middle-aged man was initially uncertain after smelling the fragrance, but after sniffing the pill twice under his nose, he exclaimed in surprise.
"Refined from a demonic beast core? So this Prime Origin Pill can really cure my father?" The girl remained extraordinarily calm, only quietly asking.
"I don’t know the specific effects of this pill, but it is definitely extremely rare. It should not be a lie," the middle-aged cultivator said with a complicated expression, hesitating briefly before speaking honestly.
"Thank you, senior uncle, for telling me! Now I can rest assured. Please take this pill back and tell my father to forget I ever existed as an unfilial daughter," the girl sighed deeply, her eyes reddening as she turned and rushed into the light veil without looking back.
The middle-aged cultivator’s expression changed several times. He opened his mouth, but no words came out. Instead, he clenched the jade bottle tightly in his hand.
At this time, the giant ape puppet also returned inside the light veil. The previously cracked veil slowly closed.
"Senior uncle, are you really going to let junior sister Gongsun be the furnace vessel for someone else?" The burly young man was full of anxiety and finally shouted loudly.
The other two women also had grim expressions.
"Can’t you see? Our junior sister has made up her mind. This is not something we can stop. Besides, this elder’s pill might really cure the sect leader. For the future of the Qingling Sect, I cannot interfere," the middle-aged cultivator said with a dark expression, speaking softly.
