When Shang Lin returned home from school at noon, he took out the medicine bottle that Fan Mingyu had given him, and asked She Jinxing to take one pill to Shenjun to take a look at.
She Jinxing accepted it subconsciously and saw it off subconsciously. After seeing it off and leaving the tower, when he saw Shang Lin again, he suddenly realized that the sect leader hadn't entered the Dragon Spirit Tower recently!
Could it be because Bai Chengyun is inside the tower? Is it because he's worried about getting tainted by dragon energy upon entering the tower, which might attract the attention of the Xuanmen (Taoist sects)? Or is it because the midday hours are short, making it easier for him to run errands?
Noticing She Jinxing's puzzled look, Shang Lin immediately looked at him and asked, "What's wrong? What did the Divine Lord say? Or did something happen in the tower?"
She Jinxing hurriedly replied, "No, no, it's just that I suddenly realized that the sect leader hasn't entered the Dragon Spirit Tower for a while."
Shang Lin was taken aback. The little snake's observation skills were indeed very strong, but he laughed and said, "There's no other way. Bai Chengyun is in the tower. I don't want to get tainted by his dragon aura. What if I encounter a cultivator sometime? How am I supposed to explain that? Especially Mo Rong, he probably hasn't given up on finding the East Sea Dragon yet!"
Well, while that's one of the reasons, Shang Lin didn't want to mention his own reasons, lest it cause unnecessary trouble. Besides, he wasn't even sure if his condition was occasional or constant, so he'd leave it at that for now.
She Jinxing nodded silently. It was indeed related to Bai Chengyun. But he had been in the Dragon Spirit Tower before, and the sect leader had also been inside. How come he only realized now that he couldn't get involved with the dragon's aura?
However, as Shang Lin's most loyal servant, She Jinxing still chose to unconditionally believe in the sect leader, so he changed the subject, "What kind of medicine is that pill? It doesn't look like a pill or a medicine that humans take."
While eating, Shang Lin replied, "A medicine to enhance memory."
She Jinxing was immediately stunned, and subconsciously said, "Human technology has become so advanced that it can even develop such a drug?!" Was he just too ignorant?
Shang Lin stated frankly, "The future is uncertain, but as for now, it's probably not possible. After all, the human brain is far too complex, especially when it comes to memory. Of course, if it's something highly confidential, I wouldn't know, but if it were leaked, it probably wouldn't be circulating in the ordinary market. Fan Mingyu gave me that medicine because he felt it was unreliable, but also with a bit of wishful thinking, so he asked me to take a look."
She Jinxing, “…”
Junior Brother is really... willing to try anything! Fortunately, he's not completely stupid; he knew to consult the Sect Master, so no one foolishly ate it.
"So, the sect leader asked the Divine Lord to examine it because he couldn't determine the authenticity of the medicine? Besides, compared to the demon race, the human race is already intelligent enough; do they really need the enhancement of medicine?"
"Which race of life doesn't want to get better and better? Just like our cultivation, which advances step by step, who would want to take it one step at a time if they had the chance to leap forward? As for letting the Divine Lord examine the medicine, I was unsure of my own judgment, so I wanted him to confirm it again."
She Jinxing wanted to say, "The Divine Lord isn't a local either, so he might not know as much as the Sect Master!"
But remembering that the sect leader always acted with discretion and purpose, She Jinxing chose to remain silent. However, after they finished lunch, the Divine Lord emerged from the Dragon Spirit Tower…
