"I will certainly do my utmost," Li Hengsheng said through gritted teeth.
The Seven Treasures Glaze Pill requires at least seven drops of Dragon Blood Essence.
Right now, I only have two drops, and one of them was given to by Lu Shiran.
Where on earth am I going to find the remaining five drops?
Previously, Li Hengsheng had almost forgotten about this matter, but unexpectedly, it has co to a head.
"Shiran." Guang Ancestor addressed Lu Shiran again: "Co back to Guanglan Palace with ."
"Alright." Lu Shiran hesitated for a mont but nodded in agreent. Though she was reluctant to leave Li Hengsheng, she couldn’t disobey Guang Ancestor’s orders.
Moreover, Lu Shiran understood that her own strength was insufficient for today’s affairs; she couldn’t accomplish anything.
Returning to Guanglan Palace was the best place for cultivation.
Li Hengsheng glanced back at Lu Shiran but didn’t ask her to stay. He also understood that returning to Guanglan Palace was the best choice for her.
"Guang Ancestor, will she go back and face demands for an alliance marriage?" Li Hengsheng still couldn’t help but ask.
"An alliance marriage? With the Su family?" Guang Ancestor laughed: "The Su family can hardly fend for themselves now, let alone when I’ve already obtained what they promised . Who’d still seek an alliance through marriage? Besides, hasn’t that old Su Zheng been confined to the Great Dream Soul Stone by the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable? Ha ha."
"True enough." Li Hengsheng concluded.
"Stay here for another day; I’ll co to get you tomorrow." Guang Ancestor recognized Lu Shiran’s reluctance, so he allowed her an additional day’s ti.
"Thank you, Guang Ancestor." Lu Shiran felt a little happier.
"Brother Qinglian." Guang Ancestor now turned to Li Changqing and said, "I wonder if Brother Qinglian has so ti for a chat?"
"Certainly."
Li Changqing wasn’t sure what he and Guang Ancestor had to discuss, but since Guang Ancestor invited him, he naturally wanted to see what it was about.
The other party was a land-immortal powerhouse, and befriending him could be beneficial.
Even if friendship was not the aim, at least he shouldn’t beco an adversary.
"Alright, I’ll be waiting for you in the Celestial Cyan City to the west." After saying this, Guang Ancestor stepped out, his figure disappearing like a rainbow from the spot.
"Li Hengsheng." Li Changqing addressed Li Hengsheng.
"Senior." Li Hengsheng quickly stepped forward: "I must thank you again for your help today, otherwise, I truly wouldn’t have known what to do."
"It’s a small matter." At this ti, Li Changqing took out a small bottle from the storage ring and handed it to Li Hengsheng.
"What is this?" Li Hengsheng asked, curious.
"Owed a Seven Treasures Glaze Pill to Guang Ancestor, and you, still shallow in cultivation, where could you gather so much Dragon Blood Essence? Here are four drops of Dragon Blood Essence. It’s useless to , so I’ll just give them to you," Li Changqing said nonchalantly.
These four drops were originally saved up for Li Hengsheng, with the intention of gathering five drops altogether to give to him.
But considering the pressure from Guang Ancestor’s situation earlier, he decided to hand them over sooner.
"Four drops!!"
Li Hengsheng could hardly believe his ears.
Just one drop of Dragon Blood Essence is a supre treasure, costing two hundred thousand contribution points to exchange in Celestial Sea City. He nearly lost his life in the Ghostly Realm to secure a single drop.
Lu Shiran similarly used her ranking to exchange for one drop.
With only two drops, he had felt that it was extrely difficult to gather them.
Yet the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable just casually handed over four drops.
This left Li Hengsheng montarily speechless.
"This is too valuable, Senior, I..." Li Hengsheng was at a loss for words; it was simply too precious. The debt to the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable felt enormous. He shouldn’t have received such a valuable gift.
But the allure of these four drops of Dragon Blood Essence was overwhelming!
Without accepting them, he couldn’t imagine where to find so much Dragon Blood Essence.
"A treasure is only precious when needed; to , it’s rely trash. Giving it to you is just right."
Li Changqing solemnly placed the bottle in Li Hengsheng’s hands and closed his hands over it.
At that mont, Li Hengsheng felt the bottle was as heavy as a mountain.
This Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable, unrelated to him, showed such kindness.
He had beco the beacon in Li Hengsheng’s life.
When betrayed by his brothers and beloved, such a senior selflessly ward him.
Li Hengsheng imdiately knelt and kowtowed thrice to Li Changqing.
Li Changqing was taken aback but then thought it was nothing extraordinary for a son to bow to a father.
So he accepted it graciously.
"Junior Li Hengsheng sincerely thanks the senior for this life-giving grace," Li Hengsheng said earnestly.
The worth of four drops of Dragon Blood Essence was beyond words; dismissing it as useless was just an excuse.
They could still be sold for money.
It was an expression of a senior’s care for a junior.
Li Hengsheng vowed that when he beca stronger soday, he must repay the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable.
"Husband, stand up, the senior has already left."
Lu Shiran ca forward to help Li Hengsheng up.
Li Hengsheng lifted his head.
Indeed, the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable was already gone.
But as he opened the bottle slightly in his hand, an unmistakably domineering aura wafted out.
This aura was familiar to Li Hengsheng, undoubtedly Dragon Blood Essence.
And by the weight, there were indeed four drops inside.
