She pointed to her eyes with her finger, "Sir, I am confident these eyes can see through people’s hearts. Even if I misjudge, I have the confidence to retreat unscathed.
You know my abilities too. If I wanted to overthrow the power center of a city, it would be a trivial matter. You should be aware of that."
Her words were not arrogant in the slightest, but carried a subtle forcefulness.
With her foreknowledge abilities, personal cultivation, and alchemy skills, it could be said that no one in this world could match her.
The old man was naturally aware of this. He took a deep breath, "I was thinking too much."
Indeed, with the capabilities of the young girl before him, there was nothing to fear.
If she desired sothing, she could obtain it with ease. What the Yu Family offered was likely beneath notice for her.
Casually giving away a jade stone worth two hundred thousand and her indifferent attitude towards external possessions were not sothing her peers could compare to.
If it were soone else, they might have long been blinded by greed.
Moreover, if the Four Great Families in Beijing knew of Gu Jin’s existence, what they would offer would be unimaginable.
It wouldn’t be re money or possessions, but a position at the pinnacle of power in the Hua Country.
Gu Jin glanced at Yu Shuo, who stood behind Yu Qingli with an anxious expression, and smiled at the old man, "I always act according to my heart. My connection with the Yu Family is probably fate. Given that Yu Shuo is my disciple, there are so matters you don’t need to worry too much about."
"As you get older, there are more things to be concerned about," the old man said, shaking his head self-deprecatingly.
Gu Jin smiled without speaking.
The elder’s actions were all for the sake of the Yu Family.
Thus, she didn’t feel too repulsed by his probing.
"Sir, why not try this elixir? I also want to know its effects."
"Alright!"
The old man took the box in his hand and opened it, revealing an ordinary-looking elixir inside.
He grabbed the elixir and put it into his mouth without hesitation.
Yu Qingli, standing beside him, handed the prepared water to the old man.
The latter took a sip and swallowed the elixir in his mouth.
Gu Jin sat up straight, her eyes deeply fixed on the old man.
Yu Qingli and Yu Shuo were also staring intently at their father (grandfather), afraid of missing anything.
An Mingji, who didn’t understand what the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill was, followed everyone’s gaze.
The study fell silent in an instant, with only the sound of breathing being heard.
Ti passed unknowingly.
Perhaps only a few minutes or maybe more than ten minutes had passed when the old man’s expression changed.
His complexion beca rosy, and the white hair on his head gradually turned black at a visible pace.
This transformation left everyone present in the study showing astonished expressions.
Even Gu Jin was no exception.
This was the first ti she witnessed the effect of the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill.
The old man felt his body lighten as if he had returned to his powerful middle-aged self.
Until all his white hair turned black and the wrinkles on his face decreased significantly, revitalizing him and making him look ten years younger, there were no further changes.
Gu Jin imdiately probed the changes in the old man’s bones and ridians.
This investigation left her sowhat disappointed.
The old man’s body was still unsuitable for cultivation. Although his ridians were cleared, they remained aged.
Seeing Gu Jin’s expression, the old man understood he would still be unable to cultivate.
