Pill Completion

“Hey, don’t spout nonsense! If I hear that rubbish out of your mouth again, I’ll use you for my next project!” brayed Elder Leng, scaring Xiaoshuai back to Mu Yu.

“Father, do you still not understand that he cannot withstand your provocations now that he has erased his cultivation?” hostilely questioned Leng Bingxue.

“What can we do? Is there nothing we can do?” Mu Yu asked, panicking. He was arguably the main perpetrator when it came to provoking Ku Mu to force the latter to speak fluidly. He asked Xiaoshuai, “Can we supply him with vitality? Will that help?”

“You’re cognisant of his condition even if I don’t explicate it,” whispered Xiaoshuai.

“There must be a way.” Mu Yu slogged back the serenity qi water. He turned his held and, in a loud voice, inquired, “You are alchemists. Is there nothing you can do?”Thi/s chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.co/m

Elder Leng passed Mu Yu a white vial. “Life prolonging pill...”

Mu Yu refused with a head shake, aware it wouldn’t work for an ordinary human. “You, as alchemists, are beholden to help him hang in there. I will be back soon.”

Mu Yu flew out of the house with Xiaoshuai. Xiaoshuai, knowing what Mu Yu had in mind, simply commented, “Reversal pill?”

“Any better ideas?”

“It’s highly unlikely to succeed. I’m not trying to dampen your determination, but your attempt just failed.”

“If I can’t control the liaozhi, I’ll refine its resistant component. I need to calm down to analyse what part of it conflicts with gui herb so that I can refine precisely that.”

“Your blood!”

“What?”

“Pick somebody else to go after, damn it!”

Mu Yu leapt aside, but the lightning nipped his hair, zapping him. Seeing him stumble, Elder Leng declared, “Only we can handle an eighth rank lightning tribulation. We need to help him!”

“He has to overcome it himself, though. Else, the lightning will aim for him instead of the pill. If we help, the tribulation will surface again,” disputed Daoist Yun Dan.”

“God damn it, I wasn’t the one who produced the pill. I only added the finishing touch. Reverend Jiu Yang was the one who produced it!”

“Exactly! Since the creator is gone, we can’t let Mu Yu go, too!” concurred Elder Leng, jumping into the fray.

Daoist Yun Dan dawdled for a little longer before summoning a golden flag and transformed it into a golden spiritual net to trap the lightning. Elder Leng used shape shifting to turn his walking stick into a golden sword. Alchemist Yao and Shi Dengtian unleashed a blast of their own, albeit the latter helping begrudgingly just to save his name.

“This doesn’t seem to be an eighth rank lightning tribulation,” commented Elder Leng.

“There’s no more?” remarked Daoist Yun Dan.

“Isn’t that better? Why would you want more?” asked Mu Yu, clinging to the reversal pill.

“Mind your manners!” reprimanded Elder Leng.

“I wouldn’t even give you time of the day if Gramps suffers any harm!”

“So, the reversal p-.”

“Is for my shifu.”

“Hold it right there. You don’t have any right to choose what to do with it,” contended Shi Dengtian, dragging Mu Yu back.
