Duan Gujin thought for a while and felt that it was very likely that the woman's father was involved in so secret affairs of the Pri Minister of the Country Gulai, which led to his fatal misfortune.
"I'll heal your brother first! Have you been living here all along?"
Duan Gujin asked.
"Yes! I don't want to be discovered by enemies!" the woman said.
Duan Gujin pondered for a mont and said, "Living here won't do any good for your brother's condition. He should stay in a place with better ventilation! Follow ; I'll help you find a house! You don't need to worry about money; I'll pay for it!"
So, Duan Gujin took the woman to a nearby area, rented a small courtyard with two rooms for her, paid for one year of rent, and then he went to buy Detoxification Herbs.
Luckily, the woman's brother had only been afflicted by so common deadly poisons. He was able to refine so Detoxification Elixir Pills to detoxify the poison for the woman's brother.
After a conversation, he learned that the woman was called Ye Manxiang and her brother was nad Ye Tang.
In Duan Gujin's mory, these were two entirely unfamiliar nas.
"The constitutions of those two are quite good, highly suitable for Cultivation! Being a loner in the Duan Family, it would be a good choice to train two confidants!"
Duan Gujin knew that he would eventually leave the Duan Family; he had no power in the Duan Family and had to look for opportunities to cultivate anyone he could.
He then went to a nearby Elixir dicine Room and bought so dicinal Herbs.
After returning to his own small courtyard, he imdiately began refining Detoxification Elixirs.
"The identities of those two are a bit suspicious, when I have ti later, I'll investigate their backgrounds."
Duan Gujin did not directly take them ho because he did not want to attract the attention of the Duan Family.
If possible, he wanted to cultivate them into his spies.
anwhile, within the Duan Family, Duan Tianlang was discussing with his father how to deal with Duan Gujin.
After all, Duan Gujin's current performance had completely surpassed their previous expectations.
They had an ominous premonition and felt a sense of crisis, fearing that Duan Gujin had always been biding his ti, and his current behavior was a signal to the Duan Family that he no longer had to hide!
This ant that Duan Gujin would definitely take so actions in the future.
Therefore, Duan Tianlang and his father, who had been coveting the position of the Duan Family Patriarch, could not help but view Duan Gujin as a potential threat.
If possible, they would choose to eliminate Duan Gujin imdiately.
Only this way, they wouldn't have to worry about prolonged uncertainties.
A day later, Duan Gujin had refined three Detoxification Pills. He hurried to the room where Ye Manxiang and her brother lived, had Ye Tang take the Detoxification Pill, and helped him assimilate it by channeling Primordial Power.
After taking the pill and receiving help from Duan Gujin, Ye Tang soon fell asleep.
Ye Manxiang was very anxious and quickly asked, "Duan Gujin, how is my brother's condition now?"
"He's fine! He needs to sleep for two or three days. After the Detoxification Elixir inside him takes effect, he will recover to his previous state! Feed him so easily digestible porridge when he wakes up," Duan Gujin said indifferently.
"Okay, Duan Gujin, thank you so much!" Ye Manxiang said.
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, and he said, "Do you know the na of that Pri Minister? I'll see if I can gather so information about him."
"All I know is that he's called Pri Minister Cao. I really don't know anything else! I am just a commoner; it's impossible for to know about court matters!" Ye Manxiang explained.
"I understand. I will investigate this!"
After thinking for a while, Duan Gujin felt that even if he learned that it was Pri Minister Cao who killed Ye Manxiang and Ye Tang's family, he currently did not have the ans to seek revenge for them.
Although the Country Gulai was a small nation on the Qiankun Continent, his current Cultivation level was far from being able to approach Pri Minister Cao, let alone seek revenge for the siblings.
Three days later, Mu Feiyan inford Duan Gujin that there were only two months left before the Star Moon Academy entrance exam, and she wanted Duan Gujin to prepare well.
"All right!"
Duan Gujin had personally experienced the Star Moon Academy entrance exam before, and the result was that he was not officially admitted, while Mu Feiyan spent a significant amount of money to get him into the preparatory class of Star Moon Academy.
The so-called preparatory class of Star Moon Academy was rely a way for the Academy to gather wealth.
With enough wealth, almost anyone could get into the preparatory class of Star Moon Academy.
In fact, the teaching standard in the preparatory class of Star Moon Academy was quite poor.
"If I get into the official class of Star Moon Academy this life, I wonder what changes will happen in the future?"
Duan Gujin knew that his and the Duan Family's future would definitely undergo great changes, but to which extent these changes would occur was beyond his ability to predict.
He did not want to walk the sa path as before; he knew he needed to break the current pattern!
Within the Duan Family, whether one could get into Star Moon Academy had beco an important indicator of whether a Duan Family Disciple could beco part of the power center.
If a Duan Family Disciple, even a Direct Disciple, could not pass the Star Moon Academy Skill exam and beco an Official Disciple, then there was almost no chance for that Duan Family Disciple to beco the Duan Family Patriarch or an elder-level figure.
Therefore, Duan Family Disciples would cultivate very hard during this period; they knew that to enter the power core of the Duan Family, they must beco an Official Disciple of Star Moon Academy, not just a preparatory student.
At least, over the past three hundred years, all the Patriarchs and Elders of the Duan Family were Official Disciples of Star Moon Academy.
The entrance exam of Star Moon Academy was a major event in the Country Gulai, and the Imperial Guard was responsible for that day.
The Imperial Guard was charged with searching the bodies of the Disciples taking the exam to prevent cheating.
Although the Country Gulai was only a small nation, the examination was of great significance that year, and every year at least three thousand young n from the Country Gulai took the exam.
"This is the Elixir Pills the Duan Family Patriarch asked to give to you, Gujin. I didn't expect, this ti, the Duan Family Patriarch actually gave two pills. Here you go! Take one every ten days,"
Mu Feiyan handed over two Elixir Pills provided by Duan Yi to Duan Gujin and earnestly cautioned him before leaving.
Duan Gujin received the two Elixir Pills, and he was overjoyed in his heart.
"Just as one gets sleepy, a pillow arrives!"
Although he was now prepared with a Pill Furnace and had very exquisite Alchemy Techniques, he simply couldn't get any High-level dicinal Herbs, and he couldn't refine Advanced Elixir Pills. He could only refine so Basic Elixirs for Bone Tempering.
Soon, Duan Gujin saw a notice posted in the most conspicuous place at the Duan Family Cultivation practice area. The notice said that for the next two months, all Duan Family Disciples were prohibited from competing on the fighting stage.
If anyone was found fighting in the arena, he would face stern punishnt from the Duan Family.
