Chapter 70 Research Conference 23 The Final Evaluation is Finally Approaching
Xie Jiaoyue prefers to play it safe. If they hadn't succeeded in making this batch of pills, she might have made an even more complicated backup.
Xie Xinghui didn't understand, but Xie Jiaoyue had absolute control in the group. He and Xin Xiuying usually listened to Xie Jiaoyue, and although they didn't understand, he still did as she said.
"Okay, I'll go get this copy for Brother Moyu later and have him bring it with him when he comes to the clan school tomorrow."
Xie Jiaoyue already knew that Gongshi Moyu would come, not as a relative of Xie Jiaoyue who needed money, but as a model disciple established by the clan school.
On such important occasions, Gongshi Moyu is often invited back to participate, and he never refuses whenever he has time.
Xie Xinghui didn't leave after he finished speaking, but stayed by Xie Jiaoyue's side: "Sister, I'm so tired, and I still have to deliver things for you."
Xie Jiaoyue tossed her a spirit stone: "Still tired?"
"I'm super strong now."
After seeing Xie Xinghui off, Xie Jiaoyue delivered a portion of pills to Feng Qianqian, instructing her to keep them safe. Then, she took the last portion that needed to be sent out and went to find Commander Guo.
Only after seeing Commander Guo put the items into the warehouse and personally lock it did Xie Jiaoyue finally feel relieved and go back to rest.
The next day, before dawn, Xie Jiaoyue woke up early and put on the "battle robe" she had prepared. The first thing Xie Jiaoyue did was to look for the pills she had hidden.
Yesterday, she deliberately found a place she thought was safe, dug a hole in the luminous pearl in her room, stuffed the pill inside, and then sealed the hole in the surface of the luminous pearl so that it was not visible at all.
She originally intended to put it in her own storage ring, but then she realized that anyone could guess the location. Not only was it easy to guess, but her cultivation level was also not yet at the Foundation Establishment stage, making it difficult to imprint her spiritual power in the storage ring. Therefore, anyone could open it.
So it hid outside.
This work seems overly meticulous, as if it were done to guard against thieves.
Xie Jiaoyue picked up the luminous pearl and tossed it in her hand; its weight remained unchanged.
She couldn't help but laugh.
The clan school is generally very safe, so where would a thief come from? It can't be that the disciples who also participate in the research association stole it, can it? Everyone here is a respectable person; no one would do such a thing.
Xie Jiaoyue carefully opened the seal on the hole, and sure enough, her little jade bottle was still inside.
When the lid was opened, several small, dusty, round balls rolled out.
Xie Jiaoyue: ...
Xie Jiaoyue: …………
Could this be a pebble?
Xie Jiaoyue picked it up and took a bite.
Guess what? Hey, it really was a small pebble.
She quickly searched her body for her storage ring and checked it. Sure enough, her storage ring also showed signs of being tampered with.
Who is it?! Breaking into her room and stealing things in the middle of the night! Shameless!
Xie Jiaoyue didn't have time to grieve over the lost pill. She quickly sent the message to her two teammates and then immediately got up to find Feng Qianqian.
Feng Qianqian was pacing around in the courtyard reciting her speech when she saw Xie Jiaoyue come out. Her eyes were still blurry from looking at her, and she asked, "Jiaoyue, you're awake?"
Xie Jiaoyue first fed Feng Qianqian some spiritual fruit to help her roommate, who seemed to have been up all night, regain some strength. Then she asked, "Qianqian, where did you hide the pills I gave you yesterday?"
Feng Qianqian patted her chest: "I keep something so important close to my body."
A crisp cracking sound rang out.
Oh no! The jade bottle containing the pills has cracked!
Xie Jiaoyue didn't bother to explain and ripped off Feng Qianqian's outer garment, causing several round, metallic-looking pills to roll onto the ground.
Xie Jiaoyue pulled Feng Qianqian and ran into the house immediately, then closed the door as soon as she finished. Just then, several explosions were heard outside.
Oh dear, another bottle is ruined.
They couldn't wait for the preliminary selection and tested the effects of the pills ahead of time.
Feng Qianqian was so frightened she almost cried. She hurriedly explained, "Jiaoyue, I really didn't mean to. I didn't use much force just now. I didn't expect this jade bottle to break."
Xie Jiaoyue knew it wasn't Feng Qianqian's fault, so she quickly comforted her, "It was an accident, it's not your fault."
She had specially bought a batch of new jade bottles, so there shouldn't have been any problems. Feng Qianqian hadn't used any force either, so it could only be attributed to an accident.
What she had was stolen, what Feng Qianqian had was ruined, what about the rest?
The psychic mirror lit up, and Xie Jiaoyue felt a little resistant, not daring to open it, fearing that the remaining backups would also be corrupted.
But things won't be solved just by ignoring it. Xie Jiaoyue took a few deep breaths and took out the Spirit Compass.
Three people sent her messages: Commander Guo, Xin Xiuying, and Xie Xinghui.
Xin Xiuying: "Jiaoyue! My portion of pills has suddenly disappeared! I specifically put it deep inside my storage ring yesterday, but the entire storage ring is gone!"
Xin Xiuying must have been very anxious, but she seemed to be suppressing her anxiety and not venting too much of her emotions to Xie Jiaoyue.
Xie Xinghui added more interjections: "What should I do, Sister Jiaoyue, dear cousin? I just casually left that portion of pills on the table yesterday. I thought the clan school was perfectly safe, but I never imagined someone would actually steal something! My pills are gone! Ahhh, who is it? How could they be so shameless!"
Xie Jiaoyue finally clicked on the message from Commander Guo.
When she clicked on it, she subconsciously closed her eyes, clutched her chest, and said, "Qianqian, come here, come and help me see, I'm too scared to look."
She was afraid of seeing something she didn't want to see.
Feng Qianqian leaned closer and said, "Commander Guo said... the clan school's warehouse caught fire yesterday."
"Huh? Such a niche script. Doesn't the clan academy's storeroom have any fire prevention formations?"
"It seems that a mysterious celestial fire suddenly appeared in the clan school's storeroom yesterday. The celestial fire can burn everything, and ordinary formations are completely ineffective in preventing fire; they were burned through directly."
Xie Jiaoyue almost choked on her breath: "No, does that mean all of us who have refined the finished products will suffer?"
