Moments later, in Sky Declaring Pavilion’s most luxurious private room, Qin Yu leaned back on a soft sofa, faintly glaring at Qi Yunshan who was lying prone on the ground.

“Forgive me! Forgive me!”

Even ants struggled to survive, much less a person who was soon about to become an alchemy grandmaster. As long as there was even a single thread of hope, he wouldn’t give up.

Old Zhao and Feng Qing stood politely to the side. Neither of them despised Qi Yunshan’s performance.

In order to continue living on, doing this in front of a Divine Dao existence wasn’t a loss of face.

It was just that they weren’t too optimistic about Qi Yunshan’s struggles. The dignity of a Divine Dao being could not be provoked; the only appropriate apology was an offering of death and blood.

“Qi Yunshan, I do not wish to kill anymore, so I will give you a chance. If you can complete it then I will spare your life.”

“Thank you, thank you!” Qi Yunshan smashed his head into the ground. “No matter what orders you have, this lowly one will complete them even if I must die 10,000 times!”

Qin Yu lifted a hand and knocked on the miniature Big Pig lying on his shoulder. Big Pig lifted a hoof and tore open space, taking out a blood flame fruit.

As this sight fell into Old Zhao’s eyes, his pupils slightly shrank and he felt even more awe towards this mysterious person. As for a blood flame fruit, while it was precious, with this person’s status it was actually normal to take out.

“With this blood flame fruit as the main ingredient, add some other materials and refine a pill for me, one with temperate properties that even a common person can take. Can you do this? Of course, the medicinal efficacy must be maintained.”

Qin Yunshan’s voice shook. “Do not worry your excellency, this lowly one has full confidence. It is just that I need some precious materials to refine the pill and I do not have them prepared yet.”

Old Zhao bowed, “Please allow Sky Declaring Pavilion an opportunity to atone for our mistake. The other materials required for refining the pill shall be provided by us.”

Qin Yu nodded his head as if he didn’t care. “Very well, it shall be as you say.” He looked at Qi Yunshan and lifted a finger, “You only have half a day. I will be leaving before night arrives.”

He swept his eyes over Old Zhao, “You won’t be informing your master about what happened here, right?”

Old Zhao stiffened. He reluctantly said, “No one dares to violate your will.”

“Very good.” Qin Yu stood up. “Prepare a quiet resting room. No one is to disturb me.”

Feng Qing hurriedly said, “Please follow me.”

She subconsciously brought Qin Yu to the best resting room in Sky Declaring Pavilion. But when the door closed, she muttered a quick ‘ah’.

Old Zhao’s complexion changed. “What is it?”

Feng Qing blushed red. She shook her head and said, “Nothing.”

Last night she had rested here. There was a cleaning staff that specialized in clearing up and sanitizing the rooms. But after taking a bath and changing clothes yesterday, her clothes hadn’t been taken away yet. Right now, she could only pray that this revered figure wouldn’t see her private garments.

With Qin Yu’s careful personality, even if his movie-king level acting was perfect, he still wouldn’t lower his guard. He naturally inspected the room.

Thus, Feng Qing’s prayers were useless. When he saw the woman’s garments hung across the wooden frame, four words leapt into his mind: light, small, thin, and transparent!

After awkwardly inspecting the area, Qin Yu pulled Big Pig and walked away. He let out a light breath, a wry smile on his lips.

At this time, who had the thought to care about such things? This was truly ridiculous! After suppressing these thoughts, Qin Yu sat down and ordered Big Pig to take out a blood flame fruit.

He picked it up and ate it in several bites. A fiery aura erupted within his body. Like boiling magma, it wildly raced through his meridians, spreading through his limbs and bones!

The status of a Divine Dao being was formidable enough that everyone felt dread and awe. If so, then this chamber that was isolated from the outside should be the safest place for him. Qin Yu naturally wouldn’t waste away half a day while Qi Yunshan finished refining the pill.

No matter how good the effects of bluffing were, there was no substantive significance behind them. The only thing he could truly rely on was restoring his own strength. Qin Yu was well aware of this.

The blood flame fruit was indeed worthy of being called a precious treasure that could repair and strengthen one’s mortal body. A boiling flow of heat swept through him. Wherever it passed, the traces of broken flesh and blood would quietly regenerate.

Of course, this was also because Qin Yu’s mortal body was formidable already, thus it could withstand the direct strength of the blood flame fruit. If it were anyone else, their body would be burnt to ashes by now.

His severely wounded body was like a cracked and drought-ridden land that had been laying beneath the hot sun for too long. It greedily and thirstily absorbed all the strength from the blood flame fruit.

A short two hours later, the strength of the first blood flame fruit was thoroughly consumed. Qin Yu’s eyes opened. Without hesitation, he took out the second blood flame fruit and ate it.

After a short respite the boiling flow of heat returned once more to wreak havoc. At this time, loud rumbling rang out within Qin Yu’s body. Although it wasn’t too intense, it contained a formidable will that shook the heart.

Faint traces of the annihilating strength of space caught within his flesh and blood were constantly stripped away and removed from his body. As it happened, the space surrounding Qin Yu shattered in a web-like shape around him.

Shua –

When the strength of the second fruit was completely absorbed, Qin Yu opened his eyes, his pupils flashing with a sharp light. He slapped the ground and directly stood up. As he did, his bones crackled and popped.

A strength that he hadn’t seen for a long time flowed through him once more. Although he was still a far distance away from recovering, it was much better than before.

If he could have taken three blood flame fruits at once, then the effects would absolutely be better than they were now. But, Qin Yu didn’t regret his actions.

Even if time reversed and he could make another choice, he would still unhesitatingly choose to use a blood flame fruit to save Old Man Zhou.

The reasons humans were humans were because their hearts held both good and evil. Even if some things were inevitable, if he couldn’t even stick to his decision at such a time, how would he be different from a beast?

He looked up at the clock. Qin Yu quickly adapted to his restored strength and then pushed open the doors to the resting room.

Feng Qing was nervously waiting outside. She hurriedly bowed and said, “Greetings…” Her face was hot red, as if she wanted to say something but couldn’t.

Qin Yu was immediately aware of what happened. Those garments in the wash room were hers…he subconsciously swept his eyes over her body and imagined her putting on those clothes…

Cough cough. “Has Qi Yunshan finished refining the pill yet?”

Feng Qing hurriedly said, “The refining process is going smoothly. Everything will be completed soon.”

Since she couldn’t see anything strange from Qin Yu’s face, she could only place her worries to the side.

“Please wait in the private room. I will immediately go to confirm again.”

Qin Yu nodded, “Good.”

An hour later, a pale-faced Qi Yunshan who looked as if he had been crushed by ten pigs all night appeared. He wafted into the private room and fell to his knees, “This lowly one did not shame your excellency’s mission. The pill has been refined; please accept it.”

He delivered the jade bottle containing the pill with both hands as well as a jade slip that described it in detail. When Qin Yu received it, he took the bottle and opened it, giving it a sniff. He didn’t touch the jade slip nearby. “Since you have refined the pill, I will keep my word and forgive you this time.”

Qi Yushan’s body shook with excitement. “Thank you!”

Then, his field of vision flashed black and he fell unconscious. To refine the pill in just half a day, he had exhausted all of his mental energy.

Qin Yu glanced at him and then faintly said, “I will be leaving now. There is no need to send me out.”

He stood up and walked away.

Old Zhao relaxed. He thought that this mysterious powerhouse was a truly reasonable person. If he were to utilize the skills of a Divine Dao being and directly break through the surrounding imprisonment to leave, the entire defensive array formation of Sky Declaring Pavilion would be instantly destroyed.

It seemed that taking the initiative to put forth Sky Declaring Pavilion’s name and offer the supplementary materials needed to refine the pill had quelled this man’s anger.

Good! This was good!

Old Zhao was originally heartbroken to have to give up so many precious materials. But now, all of that regret had faded away. To be able to melt away the unhappiness of a being that was soon about to step into the Divine Dao realm, even though these materials were precious they weren’t anything at all.

“We wish your excellency farewell!”

He and Feng Qing bowed.

When Qin Yu left from a hidden exit of Sky Declaring Pavilion, his steps were stable and steady. It was only when he left everyone’s line of sight that his pace quickened a little.

When he walked out from a street, he used his regained strength to manipulate the muscles on his face, putting on an ordinary appearance as he mixed himself into the stream of people leaving Parasol Tree Mountain.

With a thought, the ant swarm howled over, picking Qin Yu up and flying away at the fastest speed possible.

It was only now that Qin Yu let out a long breath of relief. Fortunately, the will of a ‘Divine Dao’ being was terrifying enough that no one dared to offend or disobey him. Otherwise, if he managed to attract a true Divine Dao existence, then things would definitely have become troublesome.
