Mu Hanyan quietly used her spiritual sense to probe into the red fruit, but she didn't find anything unusual. It seemed to be no different from the fruits she had seen before.
"Eat, eat." The little auspicious beast looked at Mu Hanyan as if presenting a treasure, and said while swallowing his saliva.
"It can speak human language? Pigs can speak human language?" Sikong Qinglan ignored the fruit and said in surprise while looking at the piglet.
"You are the pig, damn it, your whole family are pigs!" The little auspicious beast was annoyed and cursed.
Sikong Qinglan was completely stunned by his scolding and even forgot to be angry.
"Don't swear." Mu Hanyan glared at him and taught him a lesson, "Didn't the spanking I gave you last time be enough?"
"Hmph!" The little auspicious beast shrank its head, then snorted arrogantly, without even looking at Sikong Qinglan. It turned its head and continued to stare at Mu Hanyan eagerly.
"What is this?" Mu Hanyan asked. She didn't have the habit of eating anything casually.
"I don't know, but it should be edible." said the little auspicious beast.
Mu Hanyan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. You asked me to eat without even knowing anything. You foodie, do you know that eating indiscriminately can kill you?
Seeing that Mu Hanyan held the fruit and refused to eat it, the little auspicious beast was a little disappointed. He didn't urge her anymore. He took out a small fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
This fruit is exactly the same as the one in Mu Hanyan's hand, equally fresh and juicy, but it is much smaller, only the size of a pigeon egg.
"Wait!" Seeing this foodie starting to eat without even knowing what it was, Mu Hanyan was shocked and quickly spoke up to stop him.
However, the fruit was so small that the little auspicious beast had chewed it into a pulp and swallowed it in one gulp before she finished speaking. At the end, it touched its stomach with a feeling of being unsatisfied.
"I hope this thing is really edible." Mu Hanyan prayed secretly.
Unfortunately, things in this matter always go against one's wishes. Just as I was thinking about this, I saw the little auspicious beast suddenly scream, roll its eyes, kick its legs, and fall to the ground with its four legs facing the sky.
"Liuguang!" Mu Hanyan exclaimed, and quickly bent down to hold the little auspicious beast in her arms.
Putting aside his identity as the Young Master of Qilin, the little guy has followed her for such a long time and has saved her life several times at critical moments. In her mind, he is not only a friend and partner, but also a relative.
The little auspicious beast lay straight in Mu Hanyan's arms, its breath becoming weaker and weaker, and its vitality gradually disappeared.
"Liuguang..." Mu Hanyan hugged the little auspicious beast tightly, tears flowing out uncontrollably.
Mu Hanyan habitually sent her spiritual sense to explore the body of the little auspicious beast, but this time, her powerful spiritual sense was completely useless. The body of the little auspicious beast seemed to be in chaos. When her spiritual sense probed into it, she found nothing at all. She could only feel its vitality gradually disappearing. Mu Hanyan felt even more heartbroken.
"Master, please, find a way to save it." Mu Hanyan said to Ye Yian with tears in her eyes.
In such a situation, she would most likely be helpless even in the Holy Court Continent, let alone in the Continent of Gods. She could only ask Ye Yian for help.
"Hanyan, don't worry, I'll think of a way." In fact, Mu Hanyan didn't need to say much. Just by looking at her anxious expression, Ye Yian knew how important this little piglet was to her. Although... it was just a pig that ran faster, Ye Yian didn't want to see her so sad, so he opened his bag and started looking for suitable pills.
"Found it, found it." Ye Yian picked up a pill and excitedly handed it to Mu Hanyan, his expression unusually serious.
"This is..." Even though she had not fully comprehended the laws of the Continent of Gods, Mu Hanyan could still feel the surging power in the pill as soon as she took it, and knew that this pill must be extraordinary.
"This is called the Seven Treasures Life-Extending Pill. I made it using... a secret method. I originally wanted to wait until my lifespan was over and then linger for a few more years. But now that I have you, it doesn't matter if I live a few more or less years. You can take it and use it." Ye Yian said kindly, but hesitated slightly when he mentioned the secret method.
Although it was not stated explicitly, Mu Hanyan could guess that this Seven Treasures Life-Extending Pill must have been made by Ye Yian using the secret techniques of the Holy Court combined with the divine arts of the priests. It must have taken a lot of energy and time, and it is even possible that it took his entire life, just to extend his life for a few more years when his life span was about to end.
"Thank you very much, sir." Mu Hanyan of course knew how important this Seven Treasures Life-Extending Pill was to him. He said solemnly and secretly made up his mind that when he became a priest of the temple, he would find a way to help Ye Yian improve his cultivation and prolong his life in order to repay his help.
"There's no need to be so polite between us. Take this elixir and save your sacrificial pet." Ye Yian waved his hand and said with a smile.
Mu Hanyan nodded and stuffed the pill into the little auspicious beast's mouth.
The pill melted in its mouth, and the surging power of the pill also merged into its physical strength. Mu Hanyan looked at the little auspicious beast intently with full anticipation.
As the power of the elixir flowed throughout the body, the condition of the little auspicious beast gradually stabilized. Although it still did not open its eyes, its vitality no longer continued to dissipate. The stone in Mu Hanyan's heart gradually fell to the ground.
But suddenly, her expression changed.
After only a short moment of stability, the little auspicious beast's vitality began to fade again, and at an increasingly faster speed. The pink color on its body also became increasingly gray. Obviously, if this continued, the little guy would surely lose his life.
"How could this happen, how could this happen..." Mu Hanyan clenched her fists tightly, feeling both pain and helplessness in her heart. She didn't even notice the blood oozing from her nails digging deep into her flesh.
Ye Yian looked at the piglet with surprise in his eyes. Mu Hanyan had guessed correctly. This Seven Treasures Life-Extending Pill was the product of his lifelong efforts, combining the Holy Court's alchemy methods with the priestly arts. Even though he had already taken countless pills to maximize his life potential, with this final Seven Treasures Life-Extending Pill, he could still extend his lifespan by several decades. One could only imagine how powerful the pill was.
Typically, the more powerful the exotic beast, the more tenacious its vitality. If something unexpected happens, the elixir power required to prolong its life will be even greater. Who knew that such a pill still couldn't save the life of this sacrificial pet? Ye Yian immediately realized that this little piglet might not be as simple as it appeared.
However, no matter how complicated it is, it cannot change its fate. Even the Seven Treasures Life-Extending Pill cannot save it, and Ye Yian is helpless.
"Hanyan, just leave it to fate." Ye Yian sighed and comforted Mu Hanyan.
