110: Chapter 110 Hello, I'm Hello, Everyone's Hello

When Zhao Fangcai took out the [heavenly heart pill], Unrivaled in Solitude instantly sensed that this Medicinal Pill would be of great use to him.

After years of hard Cultivate, his sixth sense was extremely sharp, having reached a Realm where he could seek fortune and avoid misfortune,

and he could even anticipate danger in advance when he intended to do something.

The [heavenly heart pill] was the top Medicinal Pill of Wudang Mountain.

It was refined by Zhang Sanfeng at the age of ninety; only one furnace was ever made for the entire mountain, containing nine pills in total, with auspicious clouds hovering during the Alchemy process.

Since then, Zhang Sanfeng had never refined a second furnace.

Firstly, the required Materials were exceptionally difficult to find.

Secondly, he felt he was not in good condition and was not confident in refining it again.

If Zhao Fangcai hadn't saved the Zhang Cuishan couple back when he was a mountain bandit, and then gifted it to Zhang Wuji... the kindness was as heavy as a mountain; Wudang Mountain would never have brought out this pill for exchange.

Unrivaled in Solitude did not know these reasons, but he knew deeply that this Medicinal Pill was incomparably precious.

Therefore, he fell into hesitation.

Taking something from others makes one indebted!

If he accepted it, wouldn't he be hooked?

However, what kind of person was Zhao Fangcai?

He saw through Unrivaled in Solitude's conflicted thoughts at a glance.

So, he spoke those words from before quite frankly.

"I'm giving you the Medicinal Pill not to ask you to do anything, but purely for myself. You're good, I'm good, everyone's good!"

Look, there was no trap at all, it was straightforward.

Zhao Fangcai always firmly believed that one must be sincere when dealing with others!

This sincere and frank expression made Unrivaled in Solitude lower his guard slightly.

What Zhao Fangcai said was indeed true.

Although Unrivaled in Solitude was aloof and proud, he was not stupid.

Since arriving at the Jing State Dukes Residence, he had already gained a general understanding of the situation here...

He had even taught a few villains a lesson.

The current safety of the Jing State Dukes Residence was largely thanks to him and his reputation, which brought deterrence to the capital.

Taking one Medicinal Pill from Zhao Fangcai...

Seemed like it wasn't a problem.

Unrivaled in Solitude spoke indifferently, "I am me, and the Jing State Dukes Residence is the Jing State Dukes Residence. They cannot be mixed together."

"Heh! Nan Tang is right!"

Zhao Fangcai nodded in agreement.

You're right.

But, what you say doesn't count.

Anyway, Zhao Fangcai didn't believe that Unrivaled in Solitude, having taken the Medicinal Pill, would go around proclaiming that he had no connection with the Jing State Dukes Residence.

Furthermore, with Unrivaled in Solitude's arrogance, even if others misunderstood to his face, he wouldn't deign to explain.

This "tiger skin" of his was vital to the current Jing State Dukes Residence, as it could avoid many troubles and buy time and space.

After Unrivaled in Solitude was sure Zhao Fangcai hadn't set a trap for him, he took the Medicinal Pill.

Taking the [heavenly heart pill], Unrivaled in Solitude opened the bottle cap and took a sniff of the fragrance; his dark eyes lit up.

"This Zhang Sanfeng is impressive! If there's a chance, I'd like to make his acquaintance."

Being able to refine an Earth Rank High Grade Medicinal Pill meant there was a chance to refine a heaven-rank divine pill.

Such a person, even if they were an ordinary person, could become an honored guest of a Grandmaster.

Zhao Fangcai smiled and said, "In some time, True Man Zhang might come to Suzhou."

Unrivaled in Solitude glanced at him sideways and said, "You kid, you really know how to find opportunities."

"Senior, you flatter me!" Zhao Fangcai said.

Was I praising you?

Unrivaled in Solitude didn't dwell on it further and said, holding the pill, "I'll refine the pill first!"

He left Canglang Pavilion and returned to Guanshan Tower.

[You have obtained one Heaven Rank Medium Grade Heavenly Yuan Pill!]

Zhao Fangcai laughed.

How satisfying!

Ten thousand times, and it was an original critical hit!

A Heaven Rank Medium Grade [Heavenly Yuan Pill]?

This way, he had two Heaven Rank Medium Grade Medicinal Pills on him.

nine tribulations golden elixir!

Heavenly Yuan Pill!

The medicinal effect of the [nine tribulations golden elixir] was too overbearing.

The road back wasn't safe, so Zhao Fangcai definitely wouldn't consume it then.

Now that he was home.

He prepared to adjust his state and swallow the pill to make another Breakthrough.

Originally, he was a bit apprehensive.

Now with the [Heavenly Yuan Pill], he was full of confidence.

The effect of the [Heavenly Yuan Pill] was similar to the [heavenly heart pill], both could nourish the Primordial Spirit, but the effect was even more outstanding.

Moreover, the [Heavenly Yuan Pill] could also increase Comprehension Ability.

This was something the [heavenly heart pill] didn't have.

Comprehension Ability was too crucial for experts.

The higher the Comprehension Ability, the faster one could master, improve, and innovate Martial Skills.

In the same amount of time, while others had mastered two Martial Skills to Perfection, you've only mastered one; naturally, you'd fall behind.

At night, the moon hung in the middle of the sky.

The stars were like a river, fireflies outside the window were like a painting, and the pavilion was brightly lit.

Zhao Fangcai sat cross-legged on the couch, his Qi condensed and not dissipating, a faint golden light emitting from between his brows, reflecting the traces of his all-day Cultivate.

He was the only one in the room.

Mu Wanqing and the others were still telling the Old Madam about the various magical things they had seen along the way, laughing constantly.

Slight footsteps came from outside.

Zhao Fangcai looked up; it was AZhu.

She was dressed in a light red silk robe, walking inside with graceful steps, as lithe as a willow branch, her soft and beautiful demeanor heart-stirring.

"Your Highness!"

She walked up close and gave a slight bow.

"What's wrong? AZhu, who bullied you?" Zhao Fangcai asked.

AZhu looked up, pursing her lips, her lively eyes filled with a faint mist, red as if she had just cried.

She couldn't escape Zhao Fangcai's concerned and gentle gaze.

AZhu's grievance could no longer be hidden.

She lowered her head, and tears fell.

Zhao Fangcai thought for a moment and understood what was going on.

He got up from the couch and walked to AZhu.

AZhu looked up with tearful eyes and said, "Your Highness, I..."

Zhao Fangcai smiled, wiped the tears from her jade-like face, and said, "I forgot. I promised you that I'd give you and Eyi what you wanted when we returned. That fellow Gongzhi Hao must be angry and surely took it out on you, making you suffer."

Hearing this, AZhu felt even more aggrieved.

Mainly, the order brought by Gongzhi Hao chilled her heart.

If she didn't get the formula in three days, she would have to apologize with her own life.

In Mandala Villa, Murong Fu had called her a "lowly servant" over and over; she heard it clearly, and it felt like a knife to her heart.

It turned out that in Murong Fu's eyes, they were always just servants to be disposed of at will, even to be sold to a brothel.

In this state of mind, the warmth coming from Zhao Fangcai made AZhu want to get closer, and she couldn't help but lean toward him.

She needed a shoulder to lean on.

Zhao Fangcai reached out and held her in his arms, stroking her back gently, and said, "It's okay, cry if you want to!"

AZhu looked at him and sobbed for a while.

When her tears dried,

her grievances were vented.

Her mood improved slightly.

Feeling the warmth of the embrace and Zhao Fangcai's gentleness, her heart was touched.

His Highness is such a good person!

AZhu pressed her small face against him.

Only then did she realize that the front of Zhao Fangcai's robe had already been soaked by her.

AZhu immediately blushed, gently broke free and stepped back, lowering her head, and said shyly, "Your Highness, AZhu has lost her composure."

Zhao Fangcai comforted her, "Everyone has times when they feel aggrieved. I'm quite happy that you can tell me when you are."

Hmm?

What does His Highness mean by that?

AZhu's heart went "thump-thump," and she couldn't help but look up, only to see Zhao Fangcai's firm face with a smile on his lips.

AZhu couldn't help but panic for a moment.

Not knowing what she thought of,

her face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

That AZhu could come to him and inform him of the situation there meant that the situation on both sides was already as he had anticipated.

This was a good thing.

As for A'e,

it wasn't that she was clinging to old sentiments, but that she was taking care of Azhi.

In addition, over at Yanzi Pond, the main contact was still AZhu; she was smarter and more capable.

A'e was young and not very sensible, so she was more like a backup.

AZhu was incredibly grateful and said softly, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Oh, what's there to thank? This is what I promised you!"

Zhao Fangcai went to the desk.

AZhu followed closely, lifting her sleeves to help him grind the ink.

While she was busy, she stared at the ink, lost in thought.

Secretly, AZhu knew that she and A'e were spies sent by Murong Fu, but Zhao Fangcai had never blamed, scolded, or mistreated them.

Instead, he treated them generously.

Giving ginseng, helping her break through her Bottleneck, and giving her Secret Manuals.

Now, for the sake of herself and A'e, he was even going to give the precious Secret Manual to Murong Fu?

What kind of magnanimity was this?

He completely treated them as his own family.

No wonder Wang Yuyan, upon hearing Murong Fu speak ill of him, couldn't help but slap him.

People are not plants; how can they be Ruthless?
