Bai Fei'er felt the true energy once again filling her body, yet she couldn't even control her own hands.
At this mont, having returned to the Elental Infant stage, she realized that the bowl of dicinal soup before her contained incredibly terrifying dicinal power! She hadn't noticed it before simply because her cultivation was too weak to detect it.
The brown dicinal liquid shimred with a starry glow, and even a single drop was beyond her comprehension. What kind of extraordinary alchemy and precious ingredients were used?
"Hmm, the young lady's complexion looks much better now."
Gu Heng observed Bai Fei'er with a sense of satisfaction.
For a healer, there's no greater accomplishnt than seeing a patient recover because of their dicine.
However, the girl in front of him was staring blankly at the dicinal soup he had brought over, her body seemingly trembling with emotion, which Gu Heng found a bit odd.
His dical skills were quite good, after all, the System described them as "divine." The dicine he brewed always looked decent and tasted good, so why did this girl look as if she'd seen a ghost?
But Bai Fei'er dared not look directly at Gu Heng now, because... the royal cultivators most skilled in dicine knew how to cure the deadly poison within her, but the cost was too great.
It required Eternal Life Ironwood over a hundred thousand years old, Red Gold Grass condensed from the depths of extre abyss lava, and a portion of Ancient Dragon Tooth Powder. Additionally, a great cultivator with at least a Transcendent Saint level of cultivation, proficient in dicine, would need to refine the dicine for forty-nine days to produce a drop of "Star-Moon Divine Water" to cure her ailnt.
But that was impossible.
Firstly, the longest Eternal Life Ironwood available in the current world was only fifty thousand years, and the Bai Family could only afford that. Anything beyond that was scarce throughout the Mysterious Heaven Realm. The Bai Family had only heard of a piece over a hundred and twenty thousand years old stored in the Transcendent Holy Land "Heaven's Inquiry Palace" outside the empire.
And that was an absolute treasure.
As for the extre abyss lava, only cultivators in the Great Ascension stage could enter; otherwise, death awaited. Her father, the Bai Family patriarch, was only at the seventh level of Tribulation Crossing.
Ancient Dragon Tooth Powder... The Ancient Dragon clan considered anything from their bodies sacred, and anyone daring to touch a dragon's corpse would face death.
So at that ti, Bai Fei'er knew she was dood.
Not even the emperor of the Sunflare Empire could obtain such heavenly treasures!
Yet the bowl of dicinal soup before her... wasn't it the "Star-Moon Divine Water" the dical sage had ntioned?
In this small town's little dicine Hall, a mortal man had brewed it in just the ti it took to drink a cup of tea?!
Who exactly was he?
"Miss, are you alright?"
Gu Heng looked at her with so concern. Bai Fei'er snapped back to reality, quickly composing herself and pretending to be calm, "This gentleman... no, this senior, may I see the ingredients in this dicinal soup?"
She still couldn't quite believe it, but she felt that the man before her was no ordinary mortal but a powerful figure whose strength she couldn't fathom!
Not only that, but he was also a dical sage with unparalleled skills!!
So, her request was sowhat impolite, and she regretted it the mont she spoke.
"Ah, it's just three ingredients, nothing complicated."
Gu Heng was a bit puzzled as to why this pretty girl called him senior... Her request wasn't much; he thought she just wanted to know the recipe so she could try making it herself at ho. He walked to the dicine cabinet, grabbed so ingredients, and placed them on the table.
Bai Fei'er's throat tightened as she walked over and looked, her eyes trembling.
The Eternal Life Ironwood almost glowed with silver light, its quality undoubtedly exceeding a hundred thousand years. The Red Gold Grass looked ordinary, but Bai Fei'er had seen it in ancient texts; this herb was not to be touched lightly, even by Great Ascension stage cultivators, as it could burn them!
And the Ancient Dragon Tooth Powder... Bai Fei'er just glanced at it and could hear the whispers of dragon roars.
Heavens, such precious ingredients, and he just took them out like that?!
These were treasures coveted by top forces! If outsiders knew these treasures were in this small dicine Hall, it would surely lead to bloodshed!
Yet, he could brew "Star-Moon Divine Water" and casually give it to a stranger like her, while staying in this small place running a dicine Hall...
No doubt, he was a Hidden World Master beyond the mundane.
"That's all there is, my little dicine Hall doesn't have much to offer."
These ingredients weren't gathered by Gu Heng but ca from the System.
The System had a "mall" interface with many items, like dicinal ingredients, books on self-cultivation, a so-called "Book of Heavenly Destiny" for fortune-telling, and practice books for painting... There were many items, but none related to cultivation, so Gu Heng thought of it as a general store.
Everything in the mall could be obtained for free, as long as he unlocked the permissions. Each skill level-up granted corresponding points, and the higher the points, the more permissions were unlocked.
So all these ingredients were obtained for free from the System by Gu Heng, who had plenty of points and had unlocked all permissions, allowing him to take anything from the mall.
These points seed to have other uses, but Gu Heng hadn't discovered them yet.
But as for the ingredients in the mall... to be honest, Gu Heng found them quite underwhelming.
Like the "Ironwood," "Fire Grass," and "Beast Tooth Powder" before him, they all seed like the lowest quality ingredients. Using teeth and wood as dicine was quite a revelation for Gu Heng.
Yet, he had brewed dicine for others many tis, and the effects were decent.
"These things aren't a big deal, I hope the young lady doesn't mind my dicinal soup."
Gu Heng casually picked up a piece of Eternal Life Ironwood and lightly squeezed it, and it crumbled in his hand.
Bai Fei'er's eyelids twitched violently.
Though Eternal Life Ironwood was a dicinal ingredient, its hardness was terrifying. Even a thirty-thousand-year-old piece could only be crushed by a Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator. In the Sunflare Empire, a seventy-thousand-year-old piece was used by Great Ascension stage cultivators to test the power of their Dao techniques because it couldn't be broken.
Yet the man before her casually crushed this piece of Ironwood, which was over a hundred thousand years old.
Cold sweat dripped down Bai Fei'er's back. She now realized how fortunate she was not to have shown any dissatisfaction earlier, otherwise... if he wanted to kill her, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
No, even easier...
She opened her palm, staring at it as if it wasn't her own body, a strange joy filling her heart, trembling with excitent.
The feeling of regaining control over her power...
Not just power, but also authority, status, and a life of freedom...
It was all back, all of it!
She still felt a bit dazed, having actually drunk a dicinal soup brewed by such a powerful figure, and she almost mistook it for worthless trash at first!
"Star-Moon Divine Water," which only a Transcendent Saint could brew, and required divine dical skills to complent it!
Such a dical sage, known throughout the world, numbered only a few.
And any one of them had vast connections, not needing to act personally, just a word from them could topple a force stronger than the Sunflare Empire!
Compared to such a person, what was she, a re Bai Family genius? Bai Fei'er couldn't help but feel frightened by her earlier arrogance.
She, who had been at the end of her rope, despairing, had unexpectedly found new life, all because of this master before her.
Bai Fei'er's purple eyes shimred with gratitude.
She slowly raised her head, looking at Gu Heng with admiration and gratitude, "Thank you, senior, for the dicine. I have nothing to repay you with, please accept my bow!" She was about to kneel.
Gu Heng quickly stopped Bai Fei'er, smiling, "Since we t, it's all due to the ties of fate. A chance encounter, there's no need for repaynt, such things are aningless."
Bai Fei'er paused for a mont... Indeed, to this master dical sage, "Star-Moon Divine Water" was just a dicinal soup he could brew effortlessly, not even worth his attention.
But to her, because of this "Star-Moon Divine Water" she could never have obtained, she regained her lost cultivation, and not only was she no longer a waste, but her cultivation even advanced a bit!
"Thank you for your guidance, senior, Fei'er understands."
"Fei'er... that's a lovely na, it suits the young lady's beauty and elegance."
Gu Heng smiled slightly.
Bai Fei'er's cheeks flushed red instantly, and she shyly lowered her eyes, "Senior overpraises, Fei'er is unworthy of such praise."
Girls these days are quite modest, Gu Heng thought, finding this humility quite pleasing.
The rain outside had almost stopped. Bai Fei'er took a deep breath and gave Gu Heng a deep bow, "Senior, forgive for having urgent matters and not being able to stay, but I will definitely return to repay your kindness. I hope you won't turn away then."
Bai Fei'er now needed to return to the Mo Family and personally break off the shaful marriage with a single sword!
Gu Heng nodded, "If you wish to co, just co."
After all, this dicine Hall was usually quite empty, and having a beautiful woman visit often would be a good thing.

Bai Fei'er pressed her lips together, warmth filling her heart. She turned around, and with a few swift movents, her true energy erupted, and she vanished.
Gu Heng was left stunned.
So this young lady was a cultivator?!
