Chen Jinhu turned around and left without saying a word. Ye Sanniang's face was also pale white.

The two of them had a strange attitude. Gu Qing frowned, but did not take it to heart. Seeing the two of them disappear into the distance, he thought about her original intentions for coming out today and walked over to the medicine store beside them.

Just as he entered, the clever shop assistant that he saw a year ago came over and asked, "Immortal Master, you haven't been here for a long time, what kind of pills do you need this time?"

Gu Qing nodded, as she walked towards a private room on the second floor, she said: "I want the Energy Cultivation Pills and the Energy Strengthening Pills, what other pills does your shop have that are suitable for Foundation Period?"

Gu Qing did not say the Disguising Pill for the time being, he believed that even if this shop assistant remembered her, she might not necessarily remember what pill she bought a year ago.

The shop assistant was very quick-witted. He immediately counted more than ten types of pills. Other than those that could increase one's cultivation, there were also the Spirit-Consolidating and Spiritual Restoration Pills and the Spirit Replenishing Pills that could help one recover from a spiritual sense injury.

Gu Qing thought about it, there were a few pills that she needed, and then she asked for the ones that she wanted.

As the two conversed, Gu Qing quickly arrived at a private room on the second floor. The shop assistant invited her to wait before she left. Only then did Gu Qing slowly speak out. "Wait a moment, I also need a type of medicinal pellet, a Disguising Pill."

After the shop assistant heard this, he rubbed his hands in a difficult manner: "Immortal Master, we have all the other pills that you want, except for this Disguising Pill, we don't have any more."

"No more?" Gu Qing's expression changed, the most important reason she came here today was for the Disguising Pill.

"Yes, the last few bottles of Disguising Pill in our shop sold out half a year ago." The doorman saw through Gu Qing's displeasure and carefully served him: "Don't worry Immortal Master, other than this Disguising Pill, I have all the other pills."

Gu Qing's slightly wrinkled brows did not loosen. She glanced at the shop assistant, and asked: "Since there's no more, why don't you store them back in?"

The shop assistant was a little troubled, "I won't hide it from the Immortal Master, I can still make up for it in the beginning, but it was very quickly bought away by someone, and after that the Disguising Pill were all gone from the market, as if someone was intentionally buying them."

Gu Qing's hand that was placed on the side of the table suddenly froze. She stared at the assistant and asked: "You said that someone is deliberately buying it?"

The shop assistant quickly waved his hand and forced a smile, "This is my guess, as for whether it's that or not, we don't know."

Gu Qing's complexion had already changed from white to green, and only after a long while did she come back to her senses and say to the shop assistant: "Wrap up all the medicinal pellets that I need."

Leaving the pill shop, Gu Qing went straight to the other two pill shops, but in the end the shop owner told her that there were no Disguising Pill. Coming out from the last pill shop, Gu Qing's face was already extremely ugly. The absence of Disguising Pill meant that she could no longer hide her whereabouts.

As she hurried back to Leng Wuye's residence, she thought about who exactly was buying the Disguising Pill. Could it be that Shen Chang and the others guessed that she had used the Disguising Pill to change his appearance?

This guess caused her entire body to feel cold. If it really was like this, then unless she managed to raise her Golden Core Stage before they found her, she would let them find out that she was still destined to become a cauldron.

With a heavy heart, he stepped into Third Prince Manor and slowly approached the cave in the backyard. The news of her return quickly transmitted from Tie Feng to Leng Wuye's ears.

Leng Wuye nodded his head upon hearing her, he had long guessed that Gu Qing would finish her closed doors cultivation in the next few days, because he had almost exhausted all of his thirty Disguising Pill. It was only Gu Qing's appearance that caused his doubt to turn into certainty.

He could not help but be puzzled in his heart. Who exactly was this Taoist Wu Chen? Why does he keep swallowing Disguising Pill?

After returning to the cave, Gu Qing looked at the remaining five Disguising Pill in her hands. Her eyes darkened, just in case, these five pills could not be easily consumed.

If that was the case, then she would just stay inside the cave until she couldn't stay any longer.

By the tenth day, the effects of the Disguising Pill on Gu Qing's body had completely disappeared. She had returned to her original look, her pitch black hair was spread over her shoulders and her exquisite facial features looked as if they had been meticulously sculpted, looking flawless.

After Gu Qing finished cultivating, he looked down at her long black hair and sighed. She finally regained her original appearance.

If this happened, he would not be able to hide it from Leng Wuye and would be discovered sooner or later. She suddenly thought that Leng Wuye was Third Prince of the Stellar Kingdom, and that the Stellar Kingdom controlled a lot of resources, so she might be able to find a way to get some Disguising Pill.

As for Leng Wuye, he trusted him quite a bit.

She decided to wait and see. She couldn't hide it anymore and asked Leng Wuye for help.

After waiting for half a month, Leng Wuye took the initiative to come to his door and pushed the wheelchair out of the cave by himself, "Fellow Taoist Wu Chen, are you free right now?"

Gu Qing opened her eyes. During this period of time, she did not swallow any Disguising Pill, but when she heard Leng Wuye's voice, she subconsciously touched the Universe Bag. Leng Wuye was trustworthy, and the last five Disguising Pill s could not be wasted so easily.

After a moment of silence, she stood up from the stone bed and walked out of the cave.

Leng Wuye sat on the wheelchair, holding a small jade bottle in his hands. That day, when Gu Qing went to the medicine store to buy the Disguising Pill, she did not receive any results. The next day, he understood the reason. He could not figure out who was buying the Disguising Pill, causing the Disguising Pill to be out of stock in the market.

He guessed at how important this Disguising Pill was to Wu Chen, and thus, he managed to find a few of them. Just as he was thinking about how to explain why he accidentally discovered his secret, he heard footsteps.

He raised his head, but his eyes met a pair of watery eyes. A beautiful woman with black hair and snow-white skin appeared in front of him. She looked ethereal, like a fairy from the heavens. Even though Leng Wuye's heart was as calm as still water, at this moment, a ripple also appeared in his heart as he stared straight at Gu Qing.

Gu Qing knew that she would have such a reaction, it wasn't because she was narcissistic, it was just that Leng Wuye didn't even know that Wu Chen was a girl. She coughed lightly to break the awkwardness between the two of them, "Third Prince, there are some things that Wu Chen wants to say, if you don't mind, please follow me into the cave."

She immediately revealed her identity, so as to not let Leng Wuye misunderstand her identity.

Leng Wuye was still relatively calm and only recovered from his slight absent-mindedness. He nodded, pushed the wheelchair to follow Gu Qing into the cave.

After Gu Qing turned around, her black hair flowed in an extremely beautiful arc into Leng Wuye's eyes. Somehow, at this moment, his heart seemed to jump uncontrollably.

No matter what, he never expected that Dao Master Wu Chen would be a peerless beauty, and he had seen this woman once before, which was when he saw the painting in the hands of the Xuanhua Sect cultivators a year ago.

Thinking of this, his brows knitted slightly. A trace of worry appeared on his face.

After Gu Qing entered the cave, he released her spiritual sense. After confirming that she was the only cultivator in the Third Prince Palace, Gu Qing finally relaxed.

"Third Prince, please forgive me, Wu Chen did not hide this from you on purpose." Gu Qing apologized to Third Prince.

Leng Wuye laughed faintly: "Since that's the case, Wu Chen isn't your real name either, right?"

Seeing that Leng Wuye did not seem to find it strange, Gu Qing heaved a sigh of relief, and as expected, it was the first time they met.

"Wu Chen is indeed not my real name. My name is Gu Qing." She smiled and told him her real name.

"Gu, Qing." Leng Wuye's voice was very pleasant to listen to, and when he read the two words, it had a special magnetism to it.

"I was preparing to trouble Third Prince with some matters, but who would've thought that Third Prince would appear first." Gu Qing smiled and did not hide the fact that she wanted to ask for his help.

As if he understood her intention, Leng Wuye opened his palm and a jade bottle appeared in his palm. "Is it for this?"

Gu Qing's consciousness swept over the pellet on Leng Wuye's palm, his expression immediately changing slightly. "Disguising Pill! How do you know? "

Leng Wuye did not conceal it, and directly revealed the matter of him seeing her buy medicinal pellets more than a year ago, and then said: "Please do not be offended, I did not intend to pry into your privacy."

Although Gu Qing really didn't like others discovering her own secret, she was unable to have the slightest bit of anger at all, "It's not your fault, it's my own fault that I'm not careful enough."

As she spoke, she told herself to be extra careful from now on.

At this moment, Leng Wuye spoke up once again, "Gu Qing, I'm sorry, that's all I can help you with. All of the Disguising Pill near the Stellar Kingdom have already been purchased, and there are no medicinal pellets flowing in.

Leng Wuye was not stupid. On the contrary, he was very smart, he naturally knew that the fact that Gu Qing appeared here and took the Disguising Pill had a great relationship with those people.

The color in Gu Qing's eyes flickered, but she still gave Leng Wuye a grateful smile, "Wu Ye, thank you. You have helped me too much in these past two years, if not for you, I might have already fallen into their hands. These three pellets are extremely precious to me!"

Leng Wuye's heart warmed, and continued: "That Immortal Master called Shen Chang is currently in the Stellar Kingdom, and my fifth brother told him that she had seen you once before in the Star Sea. Thus, he determined that you would be in the Stellar Kingdom, and return after leaving for a year.

Gu Qing pursed her lips, "I know, I will think of a way to escape."

Since Shen Chang had already found traces of her in the Stellar Kingdom, he definitely would not give up before searching through the Stellar Kingdom once. Maybe Shen Chang still hadn't guessed that she was in's residence, but if he couldn't find his anywhere else, these prince's residences and even the imperial palace wouldn't be able to stop Shen Chang's footsteps. Thus, she had no choice but to leave.

Hearing that she was leaving, Leng Wuye felt an indescribable sense of loss in his heart. However, he still maintained his composure, and knew that since he was unable to protect her in this situation, it was best to send her away.

Ever since he was crippled, his state of mind had been relatively calm. However, at this moment, he was extremely disgusted with himself for crippling both of his legs. Why didn't he have a higher cultivation base to protect her?

"Alright, I'll think of a way to send you away!" Since he couldn't protect her, he would do his best to make her leave safely.
