2260 The First Deity
The smile on Jun Jiuqing’s face finally faded.
He stared at Cen Yi for a while and didn’t say anything else. Then, he turned around and left.
The half-broken condor quickly followed.
Seeing their figures gradually disappear into the distance, Hua Shuangshuang frowned and looked at Cen Yi. “Big Brother, who exactly is that Jun Jiuqing? He seems to be quite familiar with these deities.”
This kind of treatment was much better than theirs.
!!
Cen Yi said, “Of course, he’s the head of the Yi family.”
Hua Shuangshuang suddenly understood something. “You mean the Yi family—”
Boom!
A powerful energy fluctuation suddenly came from the room!
The two of them turned around in unison.
Bam!
The door was violently reopened by this astonishing force, and a thick white smoke spread out from inside. Right on the heels of that, Xiao Ba hurried out.
“Ahem—ahem—ahem!” As Xiao Ba ran, she kept waving her hands, wanting to disperse the smoke.
When she arrived at the middle of the courtyard, she could finally catch her breath.
“That scared me to death!” Xiao Ba held the stone table with one hand and patted her chest gently with the other.
“Xiao Ba, what’s wrong?” Hua Shuangshuang had just taken a step closer when Xiao Ba happened to look up.
He was instantly shocked.
For some reason, Xiao Ba’s face was smeared with several streaks of black ash. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked extremely pathetic.
The corners of Hua Shuangshuang’s mouth twitched. “Xiao Ba, what are you doing? Are you going to tear down the room?”
Xiao Ba shook her head pitifully. “No way. I just wanted to see if I could refine a Supreme Physician-level pill. In the end, I accidentally…”
Hua Shuangshuang sighed when he heard this. “You can’t rush such things. You’ve always been very talented. Take your time; you’ll definitely succeed—”
Xiao Ba shook her head. “Second Brother, you’ve misunderstood. I’ve already refined it.”
With that, she took out a tattered box.
“This is a jade box that I chose after looking at it for a full six hours! It was originally specially used to hold the first Supreme Physician-level pill I refined. Who knew that such a thing would happen?”
God knew that when the cauldron exploded, her heart was really beating wildly!
Hua Shuangshuang widened his eyes and stared at the jade box. He didn’t speak for a long time.
On the other hand, Cen Yi reached out, took it, opened it, and had a look.
Although the jade box was broken, the pill inside was still fine.
White and green intertwined. Although the colors were a little mixed, the power was still considered pure.
Most importantly, this was indeed a Supreme Physician-level pill. This also meant that Xiao Ba had officially broken through to become a Supreme Physician!
“It’ll do.” Cen Yi took a few glances and returned it to Xiao Ba. “I’ll get you a better cauldron later. There won’t be a next time.”
Hua Shuangshuang looked at him as if he were a pervert. Xiao Ba has broken through to become a Supreme Physician so quickly. If this were to happen outside, countless people would be green with envy. Why did it become ‘it’ll do’ when it came to Big Brother?
However, Xiao Ba seemed to have expected his answer. She exhaled weakly and picked up the jade box to keep it. “I know, I know. But Big Brother, it’s not too late to talk about this after I go to sleep.”
In order to refine this pill, I haven’t slept for days and nights. Now that I’ve finally succeeded, I only want to take a comfortable bath and sleep for three days and three nights, okay?
With that, she turned around and left.
Hua Shuangshuang looked at her sympathetically.
“Are you planning to raise this Black Bone Golden-Winged Beast yourself or send it back?” Cen Yi asked.
Hua Shuangshuang came back to his senses and looked down.
The Black Bone Golden-Winged Beast seemed to be worried that it would be abandoned by him, and its body trembled slightly.
Hua Shuangshuang sighed. “I’ll raise it.”
…
On the other side, Jun Jiuqing had just passed through the door of the Fantasy Divine Hall when he stopped.
The half-broken condor that had been following him stopped immediately.
Jun Jiuqing said, “Come over.”
The half-broken condor came in front of him.
Sensing the coldness emanating from Jun Jiuqing, deep fear surged in its heart.
“It’s just a Black Bone Golden-Winged Beast. It actually wasted so much time.” There was no emotion in his voice, only bone-chilling coldness.
An extreme sense of danger surged into its heart. The half-broken condor suddenly widened its eyes, spread its wings, and turned to escape!
But before it could move, a silver stream of light flew out—
Bang!
Its head instantly exploded!
A cluster of flames burned and quickly devoured its corpse!
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
The half-broken condor died without a corpse.
“It’s just a little playful. Aren’t you being too unreasonable by killing it so bluntly?” A gentle man’s voice sounded.
Jun Jiuqing looked up.
It was a young man in his twenties.
“It’s just a half-broken condor. What’s there to pity?” Jun Jiuqing laughed. “It’s not a red-gold heavenly phoenix or a great phoenix dragon. I think you don’t have to care about it, Second Deity.”
Yu Qian raised his eyebrows. “You can’t say that. The legendary fiends in Fantasy Divine Palace are all extremely precious. It’s naturally a pity to die like this.”
Jun Jiuqing’s lips curled up slightly in disapproval. If Yu Qian really cared, he wouldn’t have such a reaction.
Yu Qian said, “I came to ask you something.”
Jun Jiuqing nodded. “Second Deity, please speak.”
Yu Qian took a step forward. “I heard that Shangguan Yue has two contracted legendary fiends. One is a legendary three-eyed eagle, and the other is the current young mistress of the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan?”
Jun Jiuqing’s glabella moved slightly. “Why is the Second Deity asking this?”
“You just have to say yes or no.” Yu Qian smiled faintly.
…
Elsewhere in the Fantasy Divine Hall.
Jin Yunlai was tidying up the name list in his room when he suddenly heard footsteps. He looked up and saw that it was Shu Jing.
He frowned slightly.
Ever since Shu Jing was reprimanded in public last time, she hadn’t shown her face much. Even when she returned to the Fantasy Divine Hall, she would always come and go in a hurry and keep a low profile.
“Why are you here?” He closed the name list and put away the red-gold feather in his hand.
Shu Jing’s gaze swept across it without stopping. “I came this time because I have something to ask you.”
“What is it?”
Shu Jing paused and looked hesitant. After a moment, she still took a few steps forward, came in front of Jin Yunlai, and asked softly, “Have you seen the First Deity recently?”
Jin Yunlai frowned. “You went to see him?”
Shu Jing bit her lips. “He won’t see me.”
