BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 513: Explanation!

Chapter 513: Explanation!

Although Zi Yan possessed royal blood, her strength had significantly regressed due to mistakenly consuming the Transformation Herb. Over the years, her progress had been exceedingly slow. Even though she had now reached the level of a Seven-Star Dou Ancestor, within the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, she was still considered quite insignificant.

However, with the three Grade Nine Treasure Pills that Gu He entrusted her to bring back, her status would no longer be just that of a royal bloodline holder.

Of course, Gu He understood that the three elders of East Dragon Island were absolutely loyal to the Dragon Emperor’s lineage, the true royal bloodline. If their strength increased, it would be highly beneficial for Zi Yan. That was why he willingly handed over these three Grade Nine Treasure Pills to enhance their power.

“Master, what kind of pills are these?”

Seeing the ten jade bottles floating before her, Zi Yan curiously inquired.

“Zi Yan, inside these bottles, there are two Grade Seven pills, five Grade Eight pills, and three Grade Nine Treasure Pills…”

“Five Grade Eight pills!”

“Three Grade Nine Treasure Pills!”

As Gu He introduced the pills, Zi Yan interrupted in astonishment after every sentence, her exclamations cutting off his explanations.

“Stop interrupting! You’re making such a fuss over nothing!”

Gu He chuckled at her overly surprised reaction, but after a brief laugh, he resumed his serious tone. “They’re just Grade Eight and Grade Nine pills. Look at you—acting like you've never seen anything before!”

“They’re Grade Nine Treasure Pills! How can I not be shocked?” Zi Yan pouted, feeling a little wronged by his remark.

“Alright, enough with the chatter. Listen carefully—aside from these three Grade Nine Treasure Pills, all the other pills are for you!” Gu He waved his hand dismissively.

“If those three Grade Nine Treasure Pills aren’t for me, then who are they for?” Zi Yan asked suspiciously.

“These three Grade Nine Treasure Pills are meant for you to bring back to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. They’re for Elder Zhu Li and the other two elders. Once you return, hand them over to Zhu Li—he will handle everything properly,” Gu He instructed.

“Oh…”

Zi Yan nodded, though she still didn’t quite understand. Deep down, she found it difficult to comprehend why Gu He would trust people he had never even met.

“Could it be that Master trusts them simply because they are my clansmen?”

Thinking about this, Zi Yan’s eyes grew slightly misty. She didn’t know how to express the immense gratitude she felt toward Gu He.

Gu He, unaware of the fleeting moisture in Zi Yan’s eyes, continued to warn her, “Zi Yan, remember what I just told you. Don’t even think about sneaking a taste of these Grade Nine Treasure Pills. The medicinal potency is far beyond what you can handle at your current level!”

“Master, I understand!” Zi Yan solemnly nodded at Gu He’s reminder. She then reached out and carefully collected all ten jade bottles. Each bottle was marked with Gu He’s inscriptions, detailing the type and effects of the pill within, making it easy to distinguish them.

After Zi Yan collected the pills, two system notification sounds suddenly echoed in Gu He’s mind.

Among the two Grade Seven pills that could be refunded, one was refunded with a ten-thousand-fold quality enhancement, transforming it into a Grade Nine Treasure Pill. The other was refunded with a ten-thousand-fold quantity increase, granting Gu He an additional ten thousand Grade Seven pills.

After that, Gu He ran his hand over his storage ring once more, and suddenly, dozens of wooden boxes appeared beside him and Zi Yan.

“This… could it be… Spiritual Medicine Pills?!”

Seeing the dozens of wooden boxes piled on the ground, the heavy thoughts in Zi Yan’s mind were instantly cast aside, and a bright smile bloomed on her face.

She immediately grabbed a wooden box, opened it, and as expected, it was filled with the Spiritual Medicine Pills she had been longing for.

The amount piled here was almost the same as what Gu He had given her last time—several thousand pills.

Without hesitation, Zi Yan quickly picked up one and popped it into her mouth, chewing eagerly.

“This is the taste! It’s exactly the same as before!” Zi Yan exclaimed with joy as she chewed.

Seeing how delighted Zi Yan was, Gu He couldn't help but smile as well. These Spiritual Medicine Pills were actually the same ones he had refined using two types of Tier Five medicinal herbs back at Jia Nan Academy. However, after the system refund, he had received ten thousand pills. Last time, he had only given Zi Yan five thousand, and the five thousand here were the remaining half.

“Zi Yan, take these three Void Jade Talismans. If you run into any trouble in your clan that you can’t handle, just crush one, and I will arrive immediately!” Gu He suddenly said as he pulled out three Void Jade Talismans.

Seeing this, Zi Yan, who had been about to stuff a second Spiritual Medicine Pill into her mouth, immediately stopped. She quickly put the pill back into the box and reached out with both hands to receive the three Void Jade Talismans from Gu He.

“Thank you, Master!” Zi Yan had already witnessed the power of these Void Jade Talismans before and understood their immense value. She was deeply grateful as she accepted them.

After storing away the three Void Jade Talismans, Zi Yan suddenly thought of Gu He’s projection. She glanced around but didn’t see it.

Gu He immediately saw through what the little girl was looking for and said, “Don’t bother searching. I already told you before—projections can only last for half an hour.”

“Oh, I see… Then, Master, once I arrive there, I’ll find an opportunity to summon your projection. Maybe you could set up a teleportation array over there?” Zi Yan suggested expectantly.

“That… is actually a feasible idea!”

Hearing Zi Yan’s suggestion, Gu He pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Within the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, East Dragon Island was considered the weakest among the four islands. Its Grand Elder, Qing Shan, who had been in seclusion for years, was only at the Two-Star Dou Saint level.

Meanwhile, on the other three dragon islands, even some of the Grand Elders and top commanders had already reached the Two-Star Dou Saint level. Not to mention the three Dragon Kings, all of whom had reached the late Three-Star Dou Saint stage.

With Gu He’s current strength and abilities, he could deal with ordinary Two-Star Dou Saints, but facing the three Dragon Kings, who were late Three-Star Dou Saints, he had no confidence in winning.

If it weren’t for the fact that the three major dragon islands were constantly at odds with one another and unable to focus all their attention on East Dragon Island, the island would never have been able to hold out until now.

But things were different now. If news of Zi Yan’s return, as a royal bloodline holder, spread and was discovered by the other dragon islands, unpredictable events might unfold. After all, those three Dragon Kings would never allow a member of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan with royal blood to grow strong enough to threaten their rule.
