Chapter 117: Take it all
The trio waited for about half an hour, and Gu Xun'er came out. The expression on her face was still as peaceful and elegant, as if nothing had happened.
When leaving, he said goodbye to Yao Lao in the same polite manner, and there was nothing wrong with him.
However, Yao Lao and Feng Zunzhe were both very experienced people. From some details of Gu Xun'er's actions, they could tell that the girl was not as calm as she appeared to be.
But it is true that even a dog will choose to turn around and leave and lick someone else after knowing that his goddess has had sex with her current boyfriend.
It’s just that Gu Xun’er is Xiao Yan’s veteran bootlicker. She can still accept it now, but she won’t feel good in her heart. It will take time to heal her heartache.
Yao Lao and Feng Zunzhe would definitely stand on Xiao Yan's side for various reasons. Although Xiao Yan was the one at fault, they couldn't say anything. This matter had to be resolved between them.
If outsiders cause trouble at this time, they will really become outsiders in the future.
……
In the Han Mansion, Han Cheng was still polishing the pill recipe. He wanted to make it perfect without any flaws.
There is still one year left before the Alchemist Conference begins, and Han Cheng wants to perfect this pill recipe before then.
"Sister Yafei is not young anymore. She is only a Douhuang now. Although she has taken a life-extending elixir and can live for at least another 500 years, this is still not enough..."
Han Cheng narrowed his eyes, and kept recalling the various pill recipes he had seen, the properties of individual medicinal ingredients, and the properties of different medicinal ingredients combined together.
This is a very large number. How many medicinal herbs are there on the Douqi Continent? Even a ninth-grade alchemist would not dare to say that he knows them all.
Of course, all Han Cheng did was to put some not-too-rare medicinal materials together for deduction. But even so, this is a very large number, equivalent to using the human brain to calculate pi to 10 billion decimal places.
As the sun set and the moon rose, Han Cheng stopped brainstorming and began the third practice with his girlfriend in his arms.
Since Zi Yan was such a nerdy girl, Han Cheng decided to take her into his room and make her his child bride and Cai Lin's younger sister.
Cai Lin and Zi Yan both agreed to this matter. They all liked the feeling of being together as a family and would feel uncomfortable if they were separated.
Half a month later, Han Cheng, who had activated the speed 128 times, perfected the recipe for the second time.
Han Cheng planned to put it aside for a while, clear his mind, and after a while, look at it from a different angle to see if there was anything that needed to be improved.
"Cai Lin, this pill is for you. Try to break through to the two-star Dou Sheng before the Alchemist Conference."
"Well, wait until I finish eating this eighth-grade pill."
After sunrise, Han Cheng gave the ninth-grade pill that could improve his cultivation to Cai Lin. There was still one ninth-grade pill left for healing, which could not be taken casually. It had to be kept just in case and could be used to save lives at a critical moment.
Zi Yan, who was standing by, felt the huge amount of energy and subconsciously wanted to take a bite. Fortunately, Cai Lin reacted quickly, otherwise they might have been in trouble today.
"Girl, you are really not afraid of death. This is a ninth-grade elixir, and you are only at the seventh level now~" Cai Lin put away the elixir and pinched Zi Yan's little face hard.
Zi Yan laughed sheepishly. It was a habit for her and it would probably take her a long time to change.
"Hey, I was wrong, sister."
Han Cheng looked at the interaction between the two beauties and smiled leisurely.
At this time, Long Yue walked over quickly.
"Sir, Madam, Miss, Miss Gu Xun'er from the Gu Clan is here. Do you want to see her?" "Yes, she should be here to give gifts again. How can we turn her away?"
Han Cheng stood up with a smile and walked towards the reception room.
Long Yue followed Han Cheng closely. Cai Lin hugged Zi Yan and whispered to her. They both looked at Long Yue's back at the same time.
……
"Xun'er, I haven't seen you for a few years. You have become even more beautiful. Girls really change a lot when they grow up."
It's not just politeness. Now at the age of 23, Gu Xun'er has grown up completely. Both her appearance and temperament are top-notch. She is definitely one of the most beautiful women on the continent.
The prerequisite is that Cai Lin does not participate in the competition, Han Cheng thought silently in his heart.
"Xun'er can't bear the praise from senior now. You are already a ninth-rank alchemist, while Xun'er is only a Dou Zong now." Gu Xun'er teased with a smile. It has only been a few years, and this senior has become a distinguished guest respected by the Gu clan.
However, Gu Xun'er's words were purely a joke. Given her status, ordinary Dou Sheng masters would not dare to underestimate her.
"Haha, that's the way outsiders distinguish between us. We are all students of the same academy, so there's no need to make such detailed distinctions."
Han Cheng had a sincere smile on his face. Although it was just a polite remark, Gu Xun'er was very happy to hear it.
After all, these are words spoken by one of the most noble beings on the continent. Even if you know it is a lie, the fact that someone is willing to tell a lie for you means that you have a certain status in their eyes.
Even with Gu Xun'er's mature mind, this sense of identity made her feel confused and dizzy.
"Senior, you are really good at joking. Xun'er is almost confused by your praise." Gu Xun'er said with a smile, covering her mouth, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
"Xun'er is here this time to represent the Ancient Clan to present a gift to Senior. Congratulations to Senior for successfully refining a ninth-grade elixir and becoming the most distinguished ninth-grade alchemist on the Douqi Continent."
As she spoke, Gu Xun'er took out a storage ring and presented it to Han Cheng.
Han Cheng took the ring, took a look at it, and the smile on his face became even wider.
"The elders of the Ancient Clan are so kind. They have helped me a lot from the beginning to now..."
"Fortunately, I also prepared a gift for the Ancient Clan, otherwise I wouldn't dare to accept this gift!"
When Gu Xun'er heard Han Cheng say this, she couldn't help but feel curious. What kind of gift could make Han Cheng think that it could match the heavenly-level martial arts and fighting skills?
Gu Xun'er knew Han Cheng very well, and he was not the kind of person who would talk nonsense. So she blinked her eyes and asked curiously, "Senior, I don't know what the gift is. Can you tell Xun'er about it?"
"Haha, it's not possible now. The gift has not been truly perfected yet. But I think this gift will be useless for a gifted girl like Junior Sister Xun'er." Han Cheng shook his head and said with some regret.
"I can't use it?" Gu Xun'er was a little puzzled. What kind of gift could make the entire Gu clan like it but she couldn't use it?
You know, Gu Xun'er's status in the Gu clan is really...
"Haha, don't think about it, Junior Sister Xun'er. You'll know the answer in another year."
"Speaking of which, Senior, when Xun'er came here just now, I saw a lot of familiar faces in the Jindan Building. I didn't expect that you could actually achieve this. No wonder the elders and teachers in the academy all praised you so much."
By the way, what day is it today? So many dear readers voted for me, which makes me very happy. I feel embarrassed to update twice, haha (ω)hiahiahia
