Chapter 170 It’s Not You
The next day.
As soon as Gu Fangchen pushed the door open, he saw Qing Jian standing quietly by the door, wrapped tightly in a black robe.
He raised his eyebrows:
"Has Prajna Lianyue finally figured it out?"
Qing Jian turned around and shook his head helplessly:
"The princess is still sulking..."
"So you came here without permission?"
Gu Fangchen moved closer, lifted a strand of black hair from the somewhat stiff Qing Jian face and sniffed it, then said with a smile:
"You smell like incense. Have you been visiting the guardian pharmacist these days?"
Qing Jian was already accustomed to Gu Fangchen's ability to predict things, so he pursed his lips and nodded silently:
"I found him... He can't refine the Jade Refining Pill."
In other words, after trying for almost a month, I failed.
Although it was just an attempt, the pharmacist immediately realized that he didn't have the ability. Or rather, even if he could figure out the refining method, it would take a very long time...
Gu Fangchen's smile remained unchanged.
This elixir has been lost for a long time and is of high level, so it is normal that the pharmacist cannot refine it.
In particular, he did not write down the specific refining steps on the recipe, only the types of materials, and the rest had to be tried by himself.
If it were that easy, it could be made in a short time, and the recipe wouldn't have been lost for so many years.
Qing Jian had watched his princess anxiously await news from the believers these days, but none of them were right. He knew in his heart that the princess would most likely come back to find this guy...
So, she was just paving the way for the princess in advance to avoid embarrassment for the princess...it was not considered as acting on her own.
"Princess, I have offended you before. I hope you will understand... This 'Lotus Treasure in the Womb' is a sacred object of our Tara sect, so it is inevitable that you have acted a little hastily."
"In the past few days, the princess has actually felt quite regretful..."
Qing Jian tactfully built a few steps for his own saint.
As the saying goes, he who knows the times is a hero.
Qing Jian felt that as a personal maid, she was truly considering the princess's interests.
If she fails to obtain the "Lotus in the Womb", the princess will definitely regret her stubbornness for the rest of her life... Therefore, she is the only one who can act as the lubricant.
It’s definitely not just to get the Yulian Pill.
Gu Fangchen certainly didn't believe that Prajna Lianyue, whose character was more like a witch than a saint, would regret it, but it was obvious that Qing Jian had been completely turned "evil" by Yu Lianwan.
Then it won’t be long before we can control Prajna Lotus Moon…
"No problem. As the saying goes, there's nothing better than correcting one's mistakes."
Gu Fangchen was calm and composed. He sighed and waved his hand.
"As long as she knows she's wrong, that's fine. I've always been a generous man and won't argue with a little girl!"
Prajna Lianyue, who was listening secretly: "..."
She gritted her teeth secretly. If she wasn't concerned about the missing holy object, she would have rushed out right now and torn this overbearing guy into pieces!
Qing Jian breathed a sigh of relief and whispered:
"That's good."
Gu Fangchen smiled:
"I just asked Xuexiang to buy an alchemy furnace so that I can refine the Jade Refining Pills for you on the way."
Qing Jian was stunned when he heard this.
She thought that with this guy's personality, it would take some time to persuade him...
As a result, it seemed that someone had already prepared it.
Qing Jian saluted quickly, and his tone softened:
"Thank you, sir."
…
Xuexiang looked curiously at the alchemy furnace in the center of the carriage, while Ning Caiyong looked at the scenery outside the window.
Gu Lianxian leaned against Ning Caiyong's side, shrank back, and looked at Gu Fangchen with her neck stiffened.
"I, I only came here because I'm worried about my mother's safety. That's why I don't want to ride in the same carriage with you..."
Gu Fangchen believed that she really didn't want to ride in the same carriage with him.
But why did she have to follow? The reason was probably not like what she said, that she was worried about Ning Caiyong.
After all, there's a Martial Saint following them, so if they're going to be worried, they should probably worry about others...
Gu Fangchen touched his chin with a smile, thinking that she probably didn't want to stay in the palace because she felt insecure.
In the past, wherever Gu Yuye was, Gu Lianxian would feel safe.
This reaction now is enough to prove that the uneasiness that Gu Yuye brought to her has surpassed that of him, the guy she used to hate the most because he witnessed her barking like a dog.
The training was a great success...
Gu Yuye is no longer Gu Lianxian's first support, and has even become a source of anxiety.
Gu Fangchen was too lazy to argue with her. Anyway, the next step would be soon.
He turned his head, looked at Ning Caiyong, and called out lazily:
"Mom~ look at her~"
Ning Caiyong shook his head, patted Gu Lianxian on the head, and said seriously:
"This trip is not for fun, please don't cause trouble for Chen'er."
Gu Lianxian suddenly wilted.
"oh……"
The reason she came out was really to "have fun".
I never had the chance to come out before, and the last time I came out I was beaten up. It was a very painful experience.
Naturally, she was eager to go to Gusu this time.
And it just so happened that... her father found her and hoped that she would follow Gu Fangchen and report their movements and information about Gu Fangchen's strength at any time.
So she followed him out.
However, Gu Yuye could not have imagined that Gu Lianxian had already mostly turned into the shape of that non-existent mysterious man, and she no longer had the trust she had before in Gu Yuye.
Going with the flow was actually more about getting away from Gu Yuye, hoping to escape that dark shadow in Gusu...
Gu Fangchen was controlling the flame in the alchemy furnace when Qing Jian's voice suddenly came from outside.
"Sir, it seems someone is stopped ahead."
Hearing this, Gu Lianxian's eyes lit up, and she was the first to lift the curtain and look over.
Then he suddenly frowned:
"Huh? Isn't that... Miss Xiuxiu?"
Gu Lianxian naturally knew this person who was the target of Gu Fangchen's bullying in the past.
Several times, she secretly tricked Gu Fangchen just to avenge Miss Xiuxiu... A few days ago, she heard that Gu Fangchen had redeemed someone. Although she was still a little skeptical, her opinion of Gu Fangchen had changed a little.
At least this time…this guy actually did something.
Gu Lianxian looked ahead and found that Miss Xiuxiu was on the carriage, and several warriors with shallow cultivation around her had been knocked down. The few survivors hurriedly ran to the side, shouting for help.
And above, the figure of an old man was floating.
Judging from his cultivation level, he is at least at the fifth level!
Seeing the survivors preparing to escape, he snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and waved it, and the heads of those people fell to the ground, and blood splattered all over the ground.
Miss Xiuxiu noticed the movement, looked over at them with a pale face, and shouted:
"Help!"
The old man raised his head and snorted sinisterly:
"Finally, the wait has come, Your Highness!"
Gu Fangchen opened the curtain and nodded:
"I've been waiting for a long time, too."
The old man narrowed his eyes and said, "What a big tone! Your Highness, do you think I'm the only one?"
Gu Fangchen glanced at him:
"Misunderstood, I'm not talking about you."
