“I’m fine now.”
Qingxue Guahua let out a long breath. Although his injuries had not completely healed, the most dangerous moment had already passed. He didn’t expect that the pill from before would have such potent medicinal properties.
Seeing Qingxue Guahua's flushed face, Qingxue Futian and the others felt a weight lift from their hearts.
“Great-grandpa, you’re okay! That’s wonderful!” Qingxue Silan said happily.
“This is all thanks to the medicinal pills you brought out before,” Qingxue Guahua said, still feeling a bit apprehensive. Otherwise, he would have truly been in danger earlier.
“Where did you get these medicinal pills?”
“And what’s the situation with Silan’s master that you mentioned before?”
Qingxue Guahua inquired, feeling confused.
“Great-grandpa, it’s like this…” Qingxue Silan immediately began to explain, while Qingxue Ming and the others also chimed in, everyone talking at once. Eventually, Qingxue Guahua managed to understand the situation, not expecting that Silan would encounter so many events during her trip to the Western Celestial Realm.
“Old Ancestor, since this healing medicinal pill is effective for you, Silan’s master gave two in total. One was originally meant for Siyun, but since Siyun already has the Spirit Fruit, you might as well take it, Old Ancestor,” Qingxue Futian hurriedly took out another healing pill. For the Qingxue family, Qingxue Siyun represented the future, while Qingxue Guahua was the present; naturally, the present was more urgent than the future.
“No need, one is enough for me. The remaining one should go to Siyun. This type of medicinal pill will definitely have unprecedented effects on her injuries,” Qingxue Guahua said in shock. He hadn’t expected the pills from Qingxue Silan’s master to be so powerful.
“Silan, your master really treats you well. Our Qingxue family owes him a huge favor!” Qingxue Guahua marveled, and his expression turned serious: “Earlier, you mentioned that the Zhuge family had pursued you. Was that resolved by your master?”
“Yes, Great-grandpa. Is there a problem?”
“Your master is not simple. That Zhuge Tuyang must have been killed by him; impressive.”
Qingxue Guahua sighed. He had heard of Zhuge Tuyang, who was the Elder of the Zhuge family, a peak Saint Master level expert. To be able to slay him was no simple feat.
What?
Qingxue Futian and the others were dumbfounded. Silan’s master had actually killed the Elder of the Zhuge family, Zhuge Tuyang?
No wonder Zhuge Yao, the family head, was so aggressive when he came looking for trouble.
Qingxue Silan murmured, “My master said he only dealt with a few small characters, but he didn’t mention killing Zhuge Tuyang?”
Everyone was speechless, looking dazed. Zhuge Tuyang was the Elder of the Zhuge family, yet he was referred to as a small character. If he were still alive, he would definitely be furious again.
“It’s a pity we didn’t encounter such a person,” Qingxue Futian sighed, feeling regretful.
Qingxue Guahua held another healing pill and sighed, “This should be the genius of some top-tier alchemical power in the Heavenly Realm; it’s too incredible. Could it be someone from the Zhu Rong Pavilion? Or a genius from the Pill God Mountain?”
“Old Ancestor, are you saying that Silan’s master is also a master of alchemy?”
Qingxue Futian and the others widened their eyes.
Qingxue Guahua said seriously, “Exactly. Silan’s master should be a peak Alchemy Saint.”
“What? How is that possible?”
Everyone exclaimed in unison, and Qingxue Silan’s eyes also widened.
Qingxue Guahua shook the pill in his hand and said, “This medicinal pill was definitely not refined more than a hundred years ago, and it might be even less, because the scorching heat on it has not completely faded. It’s clear that it was not acquired by Silan’s master from some alchemical ruins. There’s a high probability he refined it himself. Therefore, I suspect he is a top-tier peak Saint level Refiner.”
