Mundane Saint

Chapter 70 – Everyone come to test

At this moment, Feng Wuxin was also tense. Hearing Gu Heng's words, which seemed both amused and somewhat indifferent, she thought that Gu Heng was displeased with their impulsive "test."

Doomed.

But Feng Wuxin's mind worked quickly, and she hurriedly said, "I am very satisfied! We have no doubt about Young Master Gu's medical skills!"

Aunt Yuan also stood up and said sincerely, "If I have offended in any way, please don't hold it against me, Young Master Gu."

What she had just consumed was a genuine eighth-grade pill!

The medicinal power was already beginning to reshape her true essence and heal the old wounds in her dantian!

Not to mention, such generous and magnanimous gifts made Aunt Yuan realize that her life was now indebted to him. The favor of an alchemist is never easy to owe, nor easy to repay.

But what else could she say?

Her lingering internal injuries might finally be healed, and that alone was enough.

"Ah, it's nothing. I understand your actions; how could I blame you?"

"However, Madam Yuan, take this. Add three drops to hot water daily, then soak for a quarter of an hour. Do this for a month, and your body will fully recover."

Gu Heng handed her five jade bottles containing the medicinal liquid.

Although it was a test, the beautiful woman indeed had some severe health issues. Regardless, he had promised to help her heal, so he had to see it through.

"Young Master Gu, this..."

Aunt Yuan didn't understand alchemy, but the fragrance from the jade bottles proved that these freshly refined spirit liquids were undoubtedly precious high-grade spiritual medicines.

"Take it. Business is business, but your illness, as I said, I will help cure."

Gu Heng's words filled Feng Wuxin and Aunt Yuan with joy.

Needless to say, Aunt Yuan was overjoyed. Feng Wuxin also knew that the woman who had watched her grow up had once been severely injured while protecting her from several villains, leaving behind a chronic condition.

And this Young Master Gu had promised that her illness would be cured!

How could they not be happy?

"Please, both of you, come to the back hall for a proper discussion."

Gu Heng stepped aside, making way for the door leading to the back hall.

...

An hour later.

Aunt Yuan and Feng Wuxin took their leave from Gu Heng and exited the Medicine Hall.

Feng Wuxin's expression was one of relief and joy.

The discussion went smoothly. Gu Heng was interested in the collaboration, though not in personally refining the medicine. However, his female disciple was willing to provide more efficient spiritual medicines to the Golden Phoenix Treasure Hall. The terms were simple: only one hundred thousand taels of gold per month... Honestly, this deal was so profitable that Feng Wuxin found it almost unreal.

As for whether the young girl at the second level of Foundation Establishment could refine the blue spirit liquid they needed... Of course, she could!

Feng Wuxin had no doubt about Gu Heng's words.

The words of such a powerful figure required no doubt; his strength was the best evidence.

Moreover, it was already agreed that by tomorrow morning, the first batch of "Golden Spirit Liquid" would be delivered to the Golden Phoenix Treasure Hall, enough to fill two thousand bottles!

If the Qingfeng Treasure Hall dared to start a "business war," they would face complete defeat!

Feng Wuxin had come up with the name.

Qingfeng Treasure Hall dealt with "Blue Spirit Liquid," so they would deal with "Golden Spirit Liquid"!

Feng Wuxin took a deep breath, as if she could already smell the scent of victory.

"Aunt Yuan, this is truly our opportunity."

Feng Wuxin smiled and sighed.

"Indeed, Miss!"

Aunt Yuan was in a good mood too. Not only was the treasure hall's predicament resolved, but she also had the additional benefit of healing her hidden injuries.

"Qingfeng Treasure Hall... it's time to drive them out of Cloud Spirit City."

In Feng Wuxin's mind, a sharp and ruthless plan was already forming!

The two major treasure halls in Cloud Spirit City were about to engage in a bloody battle, and she had thought the Golden Phoenix Treasure Hall would be the one constantly suffering at the hands of Qingfeng Treasure Hall. But now, the tables had turned. Once they received the two thousand bottles of "Golden Spirit Liquid" tomorrow, she could strike first, and Qingfeng Treasure Hall would know what pain truly meant.

However, that would be too boring.

Why not wait for Qingfeng Treasure Hall to make a move, let them think they have the upper hand, and then deliver an even heavier blow?

The thought was exciting!

She believed that Qingfeng Treasure Hall would not escape this fate!

...

Shortly after Feng Wuxin and Aunt Yuan left.

Qing Yi, the top assassin of Qingfeng Treasure Hall, appeared at the entrance of the Gu Family Medicine Hall.

He was also acting on the orders of President Shang Xiong.

Having learned his lesson, Qing Yi kept his distance. He knew that Qing Si had died at the entrance of the Gu Family Medicine Hall, likely due to being too careless, unaware of the owner's strength, as Qing Si had died instantly.

But Qing Yi, as Shang Xiong's most elite assassin, knew how Qing Si had died.

Poison.

No external injuries, even the dantian's true essence was unharmed. If a strong person had suppressed him with aura, it would have resulted in shattered meridians, a ruptured dantian, and death from chaotic energy.

Bleeding from the seven orifices looked like poisoning!

If it was poisoning, it was understandable.

There are countless poisons in this world, even those capable of killing a Great Ascension stage expert exist. Poisons that can kill an Elemental Infant stage cultivator are even more common. Even a mortal could kill an Elemental Infant stage cultivator if they were completely unguarded.

Qing Yi was such a person.

When he was just a young orphan, Shang Xiong took him in, and the first person he killed was an Elemental Infant stage cultivator at the second level.

At that time, Qing Yi was just a mortal.

He paid the price of half a hand, watching as the Elemental Infant cultivator died from full-body decay.

It was a poison called "Bone Erosion Heart Piercing."

To avoid poisoning himself, Qing Yi cut off the half of his hand that touched the "Bone Erosion Heart Piercing" and survived, while the Elemental Infant cultivator died, killed by a mortal child.

Since then, Qing Yi had become the most formidable assassin under Shang Xiong, without exception.

"Gu Family Medicine Hall... I've never heard of such a place here. If it's new, it must be thoroughly investigated."

He hid in a dark corner, observing.

Qing Yi was very cautious. He even used his only "Stealth Pill," a pill that could completely dissipate his aura, along with all his cultivation. Now he was just a mortal... until the effect of the Stealth Pill wore off.

To prevent any potential Tribulation Crossing or Great Ascension stage experts in the Gu Family Medicine Hall from detecting him, concealing his aura and cultivation was not enough.

Only by using a pill to dissipate his cultivation would it work.

Of course, within a quarter of an hour, Qing Yi had to take a Revitalizing Pill, or he would truly lose his cultivation.

But a quarter of an hour was enough for him to figure out the Medicine Hall.

Watching as two more sickly mortals exited the Gu Family Medicine Hall, Qing Yi adjusted his coarse clothing and walked toward the hall.
