Chapter 19: Gifting a Pill

 

Early next morning, Lou Mu Yan left the Blazing Mountain Range with Ye Qing Han and company.

Lou Mu Yan was anxious to go back to improve her constitution, and Ye Qing Han and his group had other things to do, so they were basically travelling the entire way back without much rest.

“Did you tame that Flame Unicorn Beast?” Lou Mu Yan asked Ye Qing Han as she took a sip of tea at a resting station.

Ye Qing Han didn’t dislike this rudimentary station and also took a sip of his tea after stroking it with the lid of the cup. He nodded and said: “Tamed it.”

“Right, Mu Yan, do you still have that white powder? Can you sell me some?”

The white powder could render a Demonic Beast immobile temporarily, which was very beneficial to their Distinguished Sword Cultivator Clan that specialised in taming and training Demonic Beasts.

Lou Mu Yan put down her cup—this tea was too bitter. She still preferred to drink Spiritual Tea. “I don’t have any more on me, but if you want it, I can prepare a batch after I return.”

“That’s great. With this powder, our Clan’s low-level disciples could have an extra layer of guarantee when taming Spirit Pets.” Ye Qing Han revealed a bit of joy on his handsome face, “Do you want purple-gold coins or an exchange with other items?”

“Purple-gold coins.” Lou Mu Yan remembered that there would soon be a large-scale auction in the Imperial Capital, but she couldn’t always take money from the General’s Residence.

Ye Qing Han nodded, then asked with a smile: “Price?”

“Whatever. The herbs used to make that powder aren’t that expensive.” Lou Mu Yan considered Ye Qing Han as a friend, so she didn’t hide anything.

“Give your crystal card to me, I’ll swipe it to you.” Ye Qing Han’s dark eyes filled with a smile.

On Chi’huo Continent, the Imperial Capital’s bank issued crystal cards which were divided into different levels. There were white crystal cards, black crystal cards, and purple crystal cards which corresponded to gold coins, black-gold coins, and purple-gold coins.

Purple crystal cards could store all three kinds of coins, black crystal cards could store black-gold coins and gold coins, while the white crystal cards could only store gold coins. The use of crystal cards was very convenient, as one only needed to use their Mental Energy, so even ordinary people could control and swipe their cards. In addition, purple crystal cards weren’t something that money could buy, and it was also a symbol of status.

Lou Mu Yan was once trash, but she couldn’t help but come from a powerful family background, so the crystal card she used was also the purple crystal card.

“Here.” Lou Mu Yan shrugged nonchalantly and passed her purple crystal card over.

The formula for the powder was very simple, and it didn’t use Spiritual Herbs either, only a few medicinal herbs that were slightly on the expensive side. She didn’t care how much Ye Qing Han gave.

Ye Qing Han took the card, paused a little, then directly swiped over one million black-gold coins, then returned the card to Lou Mu Yan, “I’ll swipe over one million black-gold coins for you. If it’s not enough, I’ll give you more next time.”

Lou Mu Yan blinked—a million black-gold coins? As expected of the Ye Clan’s Young Lord, he sure was rich and generous. The cost of refining her batch of powder was only a little more than ten thousand black-gold coins.

Then Ye Qing Han took out a wooden box from his interspatial ring and handed it to Lou Mu Yan: “These are some Flame Fruit I accidentally found when I was looking for you. You can use it.”

He guessed that this Flame Fruit would be useful to Lou Mu Yan, otherwise she wouldn’t risk coming to the Blazing Mountain Range, so he had been deliberately looking for it throughout their journey. Upon seeing any Flame Fruit, he and Old Lu would join hands to slay the high-tier Demonic Beast and obtained these Flame Plants.

When Lou Mu Yan took the wooden box and opened it, she discovered that there were three crimson Spiritual Herbs lying within, and each one had a few fresh, bright red fruits hanging from it. Her eyes brightened—with the approximately dozen Flame Fruits, she could refine a few more Marrow Cleansing Pills.

“I do need these Flame Fruits, so I won’t be polite.” Lou Mu Yan put the wooden box away and felt a little moved. The Flame Fruit was difficult to find and very valuable, so she didn’t expect Ye Qing Han to be this generous.

“Here, keep this safe.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t like to owe favours, so she took out a white porcelain bottle from her interspatial ring and gave it to Ye Qing Han.

Ye Qing Han took the porcelain bottle and opened the cap curiously. A faint aromatic pill fragrance immediately filled the air around them, and even Old Lu stared hard at the white porcelain bottle.

“What’s this? The pill fragrance indicates it’s a Grade 2 pill.” Shock filled Ye Qing Han and he immediately plugged the bottle to prevent the medicinal properties from weakening.

Lou Mu Yan explained: “This is the Marrow Cleansing Pill made from the Flame Fruit. It can improve your constitution, clear your meridians and after taking it the meridians used to absorb the Spiritual Force of Heaven and earth will almost double in size or even more.”

“What? It can make the person’s meridians nearly double in size and maybe even more?” The shock in Ye Qing Han’s eyes grew deeper and he couldn’t help but exclaim.

Then he asked in disbelief: “This Marrow Cleansing Pill was refined by you?”

Lou Mu Yan was a Sword Master who couldn’t even absorb Spiritual Force and convert it into Elemental Energy, so she couldn’t possibly refine any pills. Yet despite being shocked, there was still a voice within him that told him that she could achieve it.

“If you think it was, then it was.” Lou Mu Yan rubbed the ice blue bangle on her wrist. If she didn’t have her powerful Soul Energy and Mental Energy due to her two lives, then she wouldn’t have been able to refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

In this world, only Sword Masters with extremely powerful Mental Energy could refine pills and be called Alchemists. They were exceptionally rare, and other than Mental Energy, they also needed talent.

It was very difficult to raise a high-level Alchemist, so Grade 2 pills on the market were exceptionally precious. Pills like the Marrow Cleansing Pill that could improve one’s constitution and widen the meridians had never appeared before either, so it was conceivable how shocked Ye Qing Han and the others were.

There was only one Grade 2 Alchemist in the Ye Clan who they basically have enshrined with constant flattery, but even he couldn’t refine a pill of such good quality like hers, not to mention its effects.

After pondering for a little, Ye Qing Han composed himself, though he was still excited as he asked Lou Mu Yan: “Mu Yan, do you still have any more of this Marrow Cleansing Pill?”

“I’ve only got two in total, and I gifted one to you. The other one I’m leaving for myself.” Lou Mu Yan shook her head.

She entered a sort of state of mind when refining the Marrow Cleansing Pill, but even then she was only able to refine two High-Quality Marrow Cleansing Pills as she didn’t have any Spiritual Energy, only relying on Soul Energy and Mental Energy.

Disappointment flashed through Ye Qing Han’s eyes, but then he smiled again. It was already a great gain to be able to have one pill of such high grade, so he was very grateful for Lou Mu Yan’s generosity.

Remembering Lou Mu Yan’s current strength, he reminded her: “Mu Yan, except for the people you truly trust, don’t tell anyone else you have such a pill. You mustn’t have no defence against others.”

If she was targeted by any experts, with Lou Mu Yan’s cultivation base, then she would be in extreme danger. Although he knew that Lou Mu Yan was an extremely intelligent woman, but he still couldn’t help but remind her.

Lou Mu Yan smiled as she nodded, saying: “I understand that.” Then she added after thinking a little: “If I refine another Marrow Cleansing Pill, I’ll save one for your younger sister.”

She could tell that Ye Qing Han cared a lot about his younger sister. Thinking about it, the girl being poisoned before she was even born, making her unable to leave her house, was somewhat similar to her, a trash born with the Terminal Meridians constitution. Since she promised Ye Qing Han to treat his younger sister, and she even received so many Flame Fruits, then it was nothing to add in another Marrow Cleansing Pill for free.

“That’s— Then thank you so much, Mu Yan.” Ye Qing Han revealed his excitement in front of Lou Mu Yan for the first time and promised with gratefulness: “I will remember this favour I owe you.”

He believed Lou Mu Yan—this woman gave them too many surprises along the way. He would remember this favour that he owed.

Although Old Lu’s eyes revealed his desire and envy, but he wasn’t a greedy person. He was satisfied if Lou Mu Yan could cure him of his chronic illness, so he wouldn’t crave an extraordinary pill like that.

After they ate at the resting station, they continued on their journey back, and after four days, they returned to the Imperial Capital. Ye Qing Han had business back in his clan, so he directly returned to the Ye Clan after leaving his contact details with Lou Mu Yan.

Lou Mu Yan, however, didn’t return home, but instead went to her courtyard in the Imperial Academy. She planned to absorb and refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill to unblock her meridians, then return home to surprise her family.
