The Wild Empress of the Evil Emperor
97. Chapter 97: Early Stage Martial Soldiers (4)
"Take this pill, Elder Yu."
He opened his hand to reveal a round green pill in the middle of his palm.
"This ..." Elder Yu was surprised.
Qi Gathering Pills? Elder Yu asked. But didn't the Madam already tell him that the Qi Gathering Pill wouldn't have the ability to help him break through his bottleneck?
NAY!
Is wrong!
Elder Yu frowned. This is not a Qi Collection Pill... Not likely. The spiritual power contained within this one pill was even denser than the Qi Gathering Pill...
As if he heard the growing suspicion in Elder Yu's heart, Gu Ruoyun opened her mouth and muttered, "Spirit Gatherer Pill."
"Spirit Gathering Pill?"
Elder Yu's heart trembled after hearing those three words. He reached out with trembling hands, took the green pill and slowly put it into his mouth...
Suddenly, a dense wave of spiritual Qi continued to flow into the surroundings. If the effect brought about by the Qi Gathering Pill was a thick fog, then at this moment, Elder Yu was completely enveloped in a layer of mist - not even a single hair on his head was visible.
Right at this moment, the spiritual Qi surrounding him flowed through his channel and flowed into his spiritual sea, causing the bottleneck within him that had acted like a stopper for so long to shift slightly.
Elder Yu was overjoyed. Only heaven knows how long it's been since I've felt this way. For years? Or maybe even more than that? I always thought that I would be stuck in the late stages of Martial General forever, never being able to break through the rank of Martial King, but now ...
This is. This is truly a miracle! Elder Yu thought happily.
Elder Yu hurriedly sat down, crossed his legs and began cultivating as he struggled for every second of precious cultivation he could obtain from the pill. He did not want to waste a single second of it.
Gu Ruoyun looked at the green mist surrounding Elder Yu, and a deep thought flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, a burst of sounds rang out from outside the Hundred Herb Hall, making him furrow his brows.
He glanced at Elder Yu and stopped thinking. He then said, "Older Yu won't be able to breakthrough for at least an hour or so. I'll go out and have a look."
Then, without glancing at the two Elder Yu, he turned around and left.
Right on the main road, Ling Yu glared furiously at the crowd with his hands above his waist. His heart was filled with hatred. He would never forget that, just a month ago, this cursed Hundred Herb Hall had chased him out, and swept the rest of his dignity out the door with him!
The worst part was, after learning about what he said outside the Hundred Herb Hall, his aunt scolded him angrily. Even his uncle, the Emperor, wanted to question him for his crimes. If her aunt doesn't defend her, she'll be a convict, rotting in a prison cell.
He can't understand it. The Hundred Herb Hall was just a small merchant shop. What is so great about them, even the strength of his aunt would be useless?
However, he did not need to fear them anymore ...
As he thought of the person behind him, Ling Yu raised his chin and spoke with an order, "Bring that Gu Ruoyun and Elder Yu here to face their punishment!"
Shopkeeper Zhao wanted to speak before he suddenly saw Gu Ruoyun walking out from within the Hundred Herb Hall. He opened his mouth for a while, then decided to close it without saying anything.
"Gu Ruoyun, I thought you were hiding behind the protection of the Hundred Herb Hall. Who would have thought that you would dare to come out like this after hiding for a month!" Ling Yu sneered, hatred burning like hellfire in his eyes, "You killed my grandfather and brother, and then caused my family to become destitute and homeless. Today, I will use your blood as a sacrifice to appease their spirits in heaven. ."
Gu Ruoyun had heard about how Ling Yu used to be beaten and chased away by Elder Yu a month ago. Seeing him still daring to return to their doorstep again, Gu Ruoyun could not help but raise her eyebrows. His gaze then moved to the black-clothed man, who was standing behind Ling Yu...
The man's body was completely covered in black clothes. Even his face could not be seen, but ...
Gu Ruoyun smiled coldly. No wonder Ling Yu dared to return to the Hundred Herb Hall. He had this man to support him.
Martial King!
He did not think that Ling Yu could really find the Martial King. The power held by Martial Kings was so powerful, that they could completely dominate the entire Azure Dragon Country if they wanted to.
