Bai Ruyue sighed in her heart.
Using this pill could solve the critical situation, but it would harm their lives.
If they didn't use it, they would die after not using the pill within the next three days. That meant they were no match for the former, and had lived for a long time.
She knew that the two of them had to take the worst out of the other.
However, when she thought about how those brave warriors who had once fought with their blood on the battlefield thought that they could take the antidote in exchange for peace, she did not know that they had been completely sentenced to death.
She knew that even at the risk of sinners she had to work hard to improve.
Even if the chances of success were small, it would not be easy to plant the seeds of death in these people while giving them hope.
Bai Ruyue bit her lower lip: "Wooden, I know what you mean, but if you try your best to avoid injuries, and not improve on them despite knowing errors, that would be no different from an executioner's hand."
"You!"
"Wooden, let's hurry up and do our best! Come on! "
With that said, Bai Ruyue lowered her head and looked at the book in her hands, not paying any more attention to Mu Furong, and immediately froze Mu Furong on the spot.
When the other elders heard Bai Ruyue's words, they could not help but feel a wave of heat surge up in their hearts, as though there was an impulse in their hearts, forcing them to be more active in finding substitutes.
Han Yu, who was holding onto a book at the side, slowly raised his head and looked towards Bai Ruyue. Within his eyes, there was praise, there was happiness, and there was even a trace of joy as a fellow cultivator.
"What?" Were those three thousand two hundred people killed by poison back then? "
Lord Commander, who had been sitting behind the long table without any expression, almost jumped when he heard Mu Chengfeng's retelling.
His face was shocked, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"When Bai Ruyue said it, this old man was also suspicious, but checking the records, these 3200 people were all poisoned, not a single one escaped, and not a single one was not poisoned either. If we say it was an assassination, it is too much of a coincidence!"
Lord Commander clenched his hands into fists.
"My prince, as an alchemist, I have absolute desire for medicinal pellets. I do not want my hands to be stained with human blood." As Mu Chengfeng spoke, he clasped his hands and bowed to the Overseer in a very serious manner:
"I hope Your Highness can give us a chance to improve our pills so that we don't …"
He didn't even need to finish his words to clearly express his intentions.
Lord Commander's fist slowly fell on the table: "I will send someone to deliver the Life Continuing Pill. Deducting the delay on the way and the time required to refine the pill, you all only have twenty hours to decide on the new plan."
"I thank the prince for his permission."
"Don't be in such a hurry to thank them. Before the pill formulas come out, everyone else will start to follow the old method."
The Overseer's words made it clear that they were prepared with both hands. This way, if they were unable to find a substitute to improve, these people would not die right now. At least, they would still have ten years to live.
"Understood!" This old man will go back right now! " After Mu Chengfeng finished speaking, he was about to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Overseer said as he walked in front of Mu Chengfeng: "If she found a substitute within the next ten hours, tell Bai Ruyue to have her come to see me!"
"Yes."
Grand Elder immediately left the room. At this time, he frowned and came forward to say, "The master that Bai Ruyue has spoken of actually knows about the Heavenly River War five hundred years ago. This person's origins …."
"Go, increase the search for the man in black. No matter how big or small, report anything to me!"
"Yes sir!" Yun Zhonglong quickly retreated.
Lord Commander stood on the spot, both his hands tightly clenched.
"Black clothed man …" Why do you know all this... Are you one of the participants, or... "Or …" Overseer's eyes burned with a trace of fire, but he died a moment later.
At the same time, a stone door to a private room was opened deep within a super majestic ice fortress within the Nine Realms.
The white-haired man walked step by step towards the ice coffin in the secret room.
The lifeless body in the coffin was still vivid and lifelike. That beautiful face was still in a deep sleep, as though she was immersed in a beautiful dream.
"Ah Luan …"
A tear fell onto the ice coffin and a painful voice whispered, "If … How nice it would be if you were still alive... I'd rather you were born than know me... "It's better. It's so close, yet it's far away in the horizon …"
When Grand Elder returned to the Pill Sect, he immediately ordered everyone to refine the first three pill formulas.
Afterwards, he brought Yun Yufei who was already awake and learning about the situation along the way into the secret room, and announced that they only had twenty hours to work hard to improve.
Bai Ruyue and Yun Yufei met again in this state.
Yun Yufei looked at Bai Ruyue. Her heart was as turbulent as waves but her face was tense.
He had a million things he wanted to say to her, a lot of things he wanted to ask her, but the pressure of his parents was like a mountain pressing down on his shoulders, causing him to not dare to come close.
Furthermore, there were still many people here, especially Second Uncle Yun Zhongpeng. If he went back and said something to his father, it would be hard to guarantee that his father wouldn't do something too extreme.
Therefore, Yun Yufei could only silently endure these things as he went to rummage through the bookshelves. And because Bai Ruyue was worried about something that could be replaced, when she saw Yun Yufei, she practically only subconsciously nodded her head once.
As a result, these two people seemed very unfamiliar with each other. Each of them was searching in a separate bookshelf.
This made Mu Furong a little suspicious:
Weird, back then on Young Master Yun's birthday, didn't Young Master Yun and Bai Ruyue seem to be very close, how did they become like this?
Did the two of them quarrel?
If that was really the case, it would be great!
Mu Furong blinked her eyes, extended her hand out, grabbed a book and started flipping through it.
She was now Mu Furong, but her soul was Bai Ruhua.
Even though her aptitude had risen due to having Mu Furong's body, in reality, her soul knew nothing about pill refining.
Now that she had flipped through these books, her eyes were filled with words that she recognized. However, when put together, they made her feel so unfamiliar that she couldn't understand them. She could only pretend that she was blindly flipping through them.
However, she thought that she still had to find an opportunity and try out the pill refining method. Otherwise, if she was found out that this was an imposter, it would be troublesome.
It was quiet in the secret chamber for a while, with only the sound of pages flipping in and out.
In the silence, many people raised their heads to look at Mu Furong.
After all, under these kinds of circumstances in the past, whenever Mu Furong saw Yun Yufei, she would stick close to him without a care in the world.
An hour later, Bai Ruyue was the first to find a few medicines with similar effects, and she gave them to Grand Elder.
After Grand Elder tried to refine a pill, he used the antidote on top of it, and discovered that the poison was similar.
After that, Han Yu and Yun Yufei went over to take some ingredients one after another. Grand Elder and the Second Elder concocted pills and began to test them, but there were no improvements.
