"Oh right, Senior Hong, I still have a pill left by my five masters."

Ann Sudong took out the pill that he got from Supreme Lord Lao Zi, passed it over to Old Master Hong, and said: "This pill has the effect of prolonging life, it was left to me by my five masters, now I will give this pill to you."

Sick to extend his life!

When Ann Sudong said this, even with the Old Master Hong's temperament, her body couldn't help but tremble slightly. At the side, Hong Yingyue opened her mouth in shock.

If not for the fact that Old Master Hong and Hong Yingyue knew that Ann Sudong's medical skills were excellent, they would have thought that Ann Sudong was exaggerating.

"I'm not lying to you. You can consume the pill right now and see the results soon."

In regards to the reactions of Old Master Hong and Hong Yingyue, Ann Sudong was not surprised at all. He therefore slightly moved forward and handed the pellet to the Senior Hong.

The moment Senior Hong took the pellet into his hands, Ann Sudong clearly saw Old Master Hong's body trembling. If it was a pill that could cure illnesses, then it would not be that magical. But to extend lifespan, this was the first time Old Master Hong had heard of this kind of pill.

At the age of Old Master Hong, he had already seen through too many people and things in the human world, and was no longer interested in the temptation of the outside world.

As for extending one's lifespan, if there really was such a possibility, it was basically a temptation that all the elders found difficult to resist. This was also the reason why countless alchemists and emperors had been looking for immortality elixirs since ancient times. They had even produced gunpowder, one of the four great inventions.

"This …"

This was the first time Ann Sudong saw hesitation in the eyes of a Old Master Hong.

"Miss Hong, can you help me pour a cup of water? It's a little warm but not too hot."

Ann Sudong turned his gaze towards Hong Yingyue, and unquestionably invited Hong Yingyue to pour him a cup of warm water.

"Senior Hong."

After passing the warm water to Old Master Hong, Ann Sudong gave him a determined look, signalling him to swallow the pill.

The moment the pellet entered his mouth, it would automatically turn into a medicinal liquid that flowed into his stomach, and then quickly seep into his blood vessels to cover up his entire body. This caused Hong Yingyue to drink a cup of warm water, just to cover up the fact that the pellet had instantly melted and disappeared.

Even though Ann Sudong had repeatedly told Old Master Hong to consume the medicinal pellet, he still failed to do so.

"This old man has already received the grace of a genius doctor to save his life. How could I still need such a precious pill like yours?"

Old Master Hong looked at the pill in his hand, and without any hesitation, he returned the pill to Ann Sudong.

When Hong Yingyue saw Old Master Hong handing the pellet back, she originally wanted to reach out to stop him, but the moment she did so, she stopped herself in her tracks. She knew that what her grandfather did was right.

"Senior Hong, I understand what you mean, but that is my resolution. I brought this pill specifically for you, please accept it no matter what."

Ann Sudong did not extend his hand to receive the immortal pills. When Old Master Hong returned the immortal pills, Ann Sudong's respect for the Old Master Hong grew even deeper.

Seeing that the Old Master Hong still insisted on not taking the Celestial Pellet, Ann Sudong gave Hong Yingyue a look to persuade him.

"Grandfather, please accept it."

Hong Yingyue could tell that her grandfather and Ann Sudong's words came from the bottom of her heart, so she gently pulled back Old Master Hong's hand that was holding the immortal pellet.

"Yingyue, we can't continue like this. I already can't repay Godlike Doctor Ann for saving my life."

The Old Master Hong looked at Hong Yingyue sternly and obstinately, before handing over the elixir pellet.

"Please don't misunderstand, saving others is our duty, I do not wish to receive any kind of gratitude."

Ann Sudong got up, and without any hesitation, he pushed back the hand that Old Master Hong was holding onto the Immortal Pill and continued: "This pill was given to you willingly by me, so please do not think about anything else, thank me."

With that said, Ann Sudong picked up the cup on the table and directly handed it to Old Master Hong.

Looking at the cup of water in Ann Sudong's hands and then looking at Hong Yingyue, Old Master Hong gulped down the elixir.

When Hong Yingyue saw Old Master Hong swallow the elixir, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. She even ran to Ann Sudong's side and gave him a thumbs up. However, what she did not see was that the moment the immortal pellet was swallowed by the Old Master Hong, it turned into an emerald green medicinal liquid and flowed into his throat.

The shocked Ann Sudong was glad that he was not seen by the smart Hong Yingyue, otherwise no matter how he said that this was a pill made by his master, Hong Yingyue would never believe it.

A few seconds later, Old Master Hong suddenly stood up from the purple sandalwood chair. After that, Old Master Hong could not help but tremble a few times, as a layer of black substance appeared on his skin.

Seeing Old Master Hong's skin suddenly turn black, Hong Yingyue's face lost all color, he stared at Old Master Hong in fear, and tears were flowing out.

"Grandfather, what happened to you?"

Hong Yingyue, who wanted to rush over, was grabbed by Ann Sudong and brought back.

"Let me go. Grandfather, grandfather! "

In just a few seconds, Hong Yingyue, who was surprised just a moment ago, was already crying, and the arm that was grabbed by Ann Sudong was flung around crazily.

"What did you give my grandpa to eat? "Grandfather."

Hong Yingyue who was tightly held back by Ann Sudong immediately glared as he loudly questioned Ann Sudong.

Ann Sudong knew that the current Old Master Hong was undergoing a transformative transformation. When the immortal pills entered his body, it expelled all the poison that had accumulated in his body over the years out of his pores, which was why there seemed to be signs of poison on the surface of his body.

"Please believe me, your grandfather is fine."

Ann Sudong held onto Hong Yingyue's shoulders with both hands and stared at Hong Yingyue with an unquestionable gaze, and said with a calm voice.

"Not only is Old Master Hong fine, his body is being purified by the pill he swallowed just now. When the pill completely dissolves Senior Hong's body, you will understand."

Hong Yingyue, who was crying so hard that sshe could barely breathe, looked at Ann Sudong, who had a determined look in her eyes, then looked at Old Master Hong's face. It seemed like there were no traces of pain on his face, but instead, he felt a little comfortable.

"Hmm, not only is it fine, it's also very beneficial."

Ann Sudong lightly pinched Hong Yingyue's shoulder, and said very firmly in a soft voice.

A minute passed, but Old Master Hong still remained motionless with no expression on his face. Hong Yingyue once again burst into tears, hugging Ann Sudong tightly with worry and worry, crying until his heart tore apart.

"Ah, so comfortable, so magical."

At this moment, Old Master Hong's voice that seemed to have grown twenty years younger entered Hong Yingyue's ears.
