Chapter 2563: Ice Flame Continent 20

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Chaoyan looked up and saw Ziluo approaching. Ziluo appeared to have taken great care with her attire, and an unusual smile graced her face. In the past, encountering Kang Shi would elicit nothing but disdain from Ziluo, her expressions reflecting her aversion. But today was different.

Ziluo had consistently avoided Kang Shi, fearing his lingering influence due to their past interactions. It was a rare occurrence for her to take the initiative to seek him out. Rather than returning home, Gu Chaoyan walked directly towards Ziluo, intrigued to see what Ziluo had in mind. Simultaneously, she refrained from initiating conversation, observing the exchange between the two.

Kang Shi regarded Ziluo with a cold gaze.

Surprisingly, Ziluo found Kang Shi more appealing today. In the past, she couldn’t stand the sight of him, viewing him as a good-for-nothing. She actively avoided any association with him. However, today was different.

For some inexplicable reason, Ziluo now found Kang Shi to be rather pleasing. He was no longer excessively ingratiating, no longer desperately trying to win her over or proposing marriage to alter his seemingly useless status. Furthermore, he exhibited a newfound talent.

Few possessed the skill to refine pills effectively, a coveted trait in every race. Contemplating the potential future, Ziluo found herself in high spirits.

Her attitude toward Kang Shi had taken a positive turn.

“I’ve heard you have potent pills here. I’m currently stuck in the Ninth Heaven and can’t break through. How about giving me one of those miraculous pills?” Ziluo’s face adorned a genuine, beautiful smile.

Ziluo believed that she could easily obtain what she wanted from Kang Shi. Confident in her approach, she saw no need to rush.

Taking it step by step seemed like the right strategy. By gradually offering Kang Shi some benefits, she anticipated receiving even more. The ideal scenario would involve Kang Shi continuously supplying her in the future, given his longstanding admiration for her.

Aware of Kang Shi’s fondness for her, Ziluo was confident that her plan would not fail, drawing from their past interactions.

Observing this interaction, Gu Chaoyan frowned at Ziluo’s confident request for pills. It suggested an expectation to receive them without offering anything in return, and the motive behind Ziluo’s newfound good temper towards Kang Shi became evident.

Despite this, Gu Chaoyan was in a good mood. Even Ziluo, known for her reservations, was enticed by the pills, proving the success of her and Gao Zhuo’s efforts.

However, Gu Chaoyan wasn’t about to provide the pills for free. She straightforwardly responded, “You want the mid-grade pills in my hands? Certainly.”

Ziluo reached out confidently, expecting to receive the pills without a hitch. She had foreseen this oute when she approached Kang Shi.

However, Gu Chaoyan’s frown deepened as she looked at Ziluo, appearing puzzled. She continued, “Didn’t you know that when you came here? If you want this kind of pill, you need to offer something I am willing to accept, or a Dharma artifact. If I don’t find your offering satisfactory, I won’t give you the pill. Crafting this pill requires significant resources and time, and they are not easy to make. They are highly valuable. If you expect to obtain it for free, wouldn’t that be akin to robbery?”
