"Delivering pills?"
Both Hua Jin and Monk Faming were momentarily stunned.
But Monk Faming quickly seized the opportunity to mock Hua Jin the True One.
"Old witch Hua Jin, have you reached your limit? You actually need your disciple to deliver healing pills? If you can't handle this, you shouldn't force yourself - I wouldn't want to accidentally kill you!"
"Wang Shouyi, what are you doing here?" Hua Jin felt humiliated by Monk Faming's taunts. She couldn't understand why Wang Shouyi would approach such a dangerous battlefield - was he seeking death? Moreover, she didn't lack healing pills. Was it really necessary for Wang Shouyi to risk his life to deliver them?
"Your Eminence, these are pills refined by Elder Chen."
Wang Shouyi held up the box, looking somewhat aggrieved. "Elder Chen said these pills can temporarily boost one's power!"
Pills that could temporarily increase power?
Monk Faming found this claim utterly ridiculous.
"Hua Jin the True One, your Kunlun Immortal Palace disciples are truly amusing. Do you think such absurd claims will frighten me?"
If Kunlun Immortal Palace truly possessed pills that could temporarily boost power, they would have already attacked Great Thunder Temple.
Why would they still be here fighting over the premium Celestial Jade Marrow?
Hua Jin the True One's eyes, however, lit up with interest.
Ignoring Monk Faming's words, she flew to Wang Shouyi's side, first ensuring both his safety and that of the pills he carried.
"Wang Shouyi, is this true?"
She gazed at the brocade box in Wang Shouyi's hands, already detecting the rich medicinal aroma emanating from it.
This particular scent was completely unfamiliar - she couldn't identify any of the ingredients used.
For someone at the Void Shattering realm like herself, this was nearly impossible.
This could only mean the pill was extraordinarily complex and difficult to refine.
And pills that were difficult to refine were usually extremely precious.
"Your Eminence, even if you don't trust my words, you should trust Elder Chen's alchemical skills!" Wang Shouyi said with complete seriousness. "Though Elder Chen mentioned there are some side effects he hasn't fully figured out yet."
"Side effects?" Hua Jin raised an eyebrow. "Will it cause my cultivation to regress?"
If the side effects included cultivation regression or prolonged weakness, then this pill wasn't worth taking - too unreliable.
The former went without saying - cultivation level was always the top priority.
As for the latter, even if she temporarily suppressed Monk Faming with the pill's help, he could simply attack again during her subsequent period of weakness.
"No." Wang Shouyi shook his head repeatedly. "Elder Chen confirmed the Raging Qi Pill won't harm one's cultivation base."
Then what was there to hesitate about?
Hua Jin immediately took the brocade box.
Normally, her suspicious nature would never allow her to casually consume pills of unknown origin. But these were delivered by Wang Shouyi and refined by Chen Huaian. The memory of Chen Huaian bravely intercepting the mysterious sword cultivator was still fresh in her mind - all this proved his trustworthiness.
Of course, the most important factor was Hua Jin's confidence in her own strength.
She was at the Void Shattering realm!
Even if the pill was ineffective or had side effects, what could they possibly do to a Void Shattering expert?
It was worth taking a small risk for the chance to easily suppress Monk Faming and seize the premium Celestial Jade Marrow.
A very good bargain!
Hua Jin the True One opened the brocade box, revealing a translucent, pale pink pill.
The pill emitted a faint, pleasant fragrance reminiscent of a spring garden that lifted one's spirits.
"Hmph, you think eating some pill will help you defeat me?" Monk Faming sneered contemptuously. "Old witch Hua Jin, you must be truly desperate!"
Ignoring his mockery, Hua Jin swallowed the pill without hesitation.
Only she knew just how extraordinary Chen Huaian's alchemical skills were.o present it, he caught sight of her shy, blushing face.
Something was wrong!
Very wrong!
He had never seen Her Eminence like this before.
Such abnormal behavior surely meant trouble. Wang Shouyi retreated half a step in fear, stammering:
"Your Eminence, are... are you alright?"
