Chapter 188: Chapter 0185: What is in the Sky? Chapter 188: Chapter 0185: What is in the Sky? After Huang Liuyan spoke these words, her gentle gaze remained on Qi Tian, scanning for any changes in his emotions that might pass unnoticed.
Qi Tian chuckled, “Master Zhang, if my guess is correct, you should be at the Half-Step Golden Core stage, right? You must have been stuck in this interdiate stage for awhile. This Ancient Gold Elixir is just what you need. As for , I am far from reaching the Half-Step Golden Core stage. There’s no need to rush.”
“Hold on there, have you thought this through? This Ancient Gold Elixir might be the only one left in the world. It can increase the success rate by fifty percent. If your talent is not too terrible, you will definitely beco a Gold Core Stage cultivator after taking it. You might not get another chance at this in your lifeti, which practically ans you’re passing on your future of reaching the Gold Core Stage. Are you sure you still want to give this priceless pill?” Huang Liuyan asked again.
“I am certain, and I have no regrets,” Qi Tian replied, still with a smile on his face. “Master Zhang, you don’t need to worry about . With my talents, I firmly believe that I can still reach the Gold Core Stage without the Elixir.”
Of course, there were so things Qi Tian could never reveal. Since he was able to locate the Ancient Gold Elixir using the Heavenly Dao Engine’s sensing capability of Spirit Qi, he could potentially find a second elixir. Even if he couldn’t find another, he could still amass a great deal of wealth. Was there anything he couldn’t buy with money? If anything, it’d just an he needed to earn more.
Huang Liuyan stared at Qi Tian for another ten seconds or so. She rembered their past in the Lianying Realm. The first ti they t, Qi Tian lent her and Zhao Qian millions of coins to buy mounts. She also recalled Qi Tian gifting Zhao Qian a top-grade heavenly-level Spirit Weapon. Qi Tian was never stingy, especially towards his friends.
“Alright, then I’ll accept your generous gift. But you must promise one thing,” Huang Liuyan said, fixing her gaze on Qi Tian.
“What is it?” Qi Tian asked.
Huang Liuyan said, “Stop calling ‘Master Zhang.’ We’re not from the sa sect. It makes no sense for you to call that.”
“What should I call you then? ‘Senior’?” Qi Tian asked, confused.
Huang Liuyan rolled her eyes at Qi Tian, saying, “Dummy, can’t you call ‘sister?’ From now on, call ‘Sister Yan.’ You may call ‘sister’ directly. I won’t mind.”
“Sister Yan,” Qi Tian agreed readily, addressing Huang Liuyan as such.
“Ahh, good boy,” Huang Liuyan responded, placing the Ancient Gold Elixir back into the Jade dicine Bottle. “Since we’re now siblings, I will accept the gift from my younger brother without any hesitations. By the way, how did you get hold of this Ancient Gold Elixir?”
Qi Tian didn’t hide anything from Huang Liuyan. He answered, “Sister Yan, do you rember the old market in Wanjie City where you took ? There was a booth that sold Storage Bags. Well, I found this elixir in one of the Storage Bags I bought there.”
With that, Qi Tian got out the Storage Bag that contained the Jade dicine Bottle and handed it to Huang Liuyan. He continued, “When I opened it, this was the only thing inside. Given how well it was hidden, I figured it must be sothing valuable, so I decided to give it to you, Sister Yan.”
“This is quite fortunate,” Huang Liuyan said, taking the Storage Bag and inspecting it carefully. “Qi Tian, whether it’s gambling on stones or bags, the uncontrollable factors are too many. You must not get obsessed with shortcuts. Instead, focus on serious cultivation and stick to the right path. I’m worried that you could end up losing everything if you don’t.”
Qi Tian nodded, not attempting to argue with Huang Liuyan. “Sister Yan,” he said, “it’s getting late. I should be heading to Wild Goose Falling Mountain. Would you like to co along?”
Huang Liuyan chuckled, “Of course, I’m your sister after all, I should be backing you up.”
The two of them left the West Peacock Palace together, ready to leave Peacock Hall and make their way to Wild Goose Falling Mountain. However, as they approached the gates of the Peacock Hall, Zhang Lei rushed over. “Lady Healer, the Mansion Master has requested you. She said there’s a minor issue at the Mansion. She thought you might be of so use.”
“Alright, I understand,” replied Huang Liuyan, halting in her steps. She then turned to Qi Tian apologetically, “Qi Tian, I can’t accompany you for now. However, you don’t need to worry; I’ll have Zhang Lei accompany you to Wild Goose Falling Mountain. Zhang Lei, you must ensure Qi Tian’s safety at all costs. If anything happens, notify imdiately.”
Zhang Lei promptly agreed.
Huang Liuyan left, a trace of anxiety visible on her face. Xiao Xiaowu was a pillar of the Imperial Master Mansion. Even she was sowhat sheltered by Xiao Xiaowu. If anything happened to him, the consequences would be unthinkable.
“Master Zhang, what exactly is happening on the Mansion Master’s side?” asked Qi Tian.
Zhang Lei shook her head. “I’m not entirely sure either. However, the Mansion Master has good fortune. I believe nothing major will happen. Qi Tian, you should stay focused on your business and stop worrying about this. Even I can’t do much about it – only people at the level of the Palace Master or Lady Healer can handle it. What you need to do right now is prepare for your duel with Gao Han. Make sure you don’t embarrass the Imperial Master Mansion; that will be the best news for the Mansion Master.”
