C37 Pill King's Daughter's Strength Is Not That Great
Wang Shan meticulously sorted through a bag of medicinal herbs. Thirty minutes later, the system issued a response.
[One Nine Transformation Hundred Withered Grass can be exchanged for a High-Grade Yang Returning Pill. Consuming this pill will not only miraculously rejuvenate and extend your life but also aid in restoring your memories! Would you like to make the exchange?]
"Exchange," Wang Shan affirmed.
The Nine Transformation Hundred Withered Grass vanished from his grasp in an instant, and he was promptly rewarded with a Yang Returning Pill.
Securing the herbs and pill, Wang Shan slept soundly until the break of dawn.
At 7:30 AM, he informed Jiaxia of his plans and headed to the entrance of the black market.
There, the heiress and the Pill King's daughter, Qin Meimei, were already awaiting his arrival.
The heiress beamed with joy upon spotting Wang Shan. However, Qin Meimei harbored a deep-seated resentment for him. The memory of being teased by Wang Shan the previous day stirred a tumultuous mix of emotions within her.
Today, she was eager to witness how Wang Shan managed to produce a Yang Returning Pill in just half a day. Should he fail, she was resolved to have the mayor throw Wang Shan into the dungeon.
"Where's the Yang Returning Pill?" Qin Meimei inquired, more impatient than the heiress.
With an impassive demeanor, Wang Shan gestured to the small medicine pouch at his waist.
"How do we know that's really a Yang Returning Pill inside?" Qin Meimei challenged.
Unfazed, Wang Shan removed the pouch and opened it before Qin Meimei.
The moment the pouch was opened, a rich, potent scent wafted out, sending shivers through their bodies and invigorating their senses a hundredfold.
This fragrance surpassed that of the pills refined by Qin Weiqiang by leaps and bounds!
Qin Meimei was stunned; her father, the renowned Pill King, had been outmatched by Wang Shan!
She examined the Yang Returning Pill closely. Its color and markings were impeccable, the hallmark of supreme craftsmanship.
This was undoubtedly the work of a Three-star Pill Refining Master, and no one could contest that.
Qin Meimei's perception of Wang Shan shifted dramatically.
Could this 15-year-old truly be a Three-star Pill Refining Master?
Isn't he even more formidable than her father?
"I was merely practicing, but I didn't expect you to be so astonished. It appears the Pill King's daughter isn't all that impressive," Wang Shan remarked casually, claiming the pill as his own. He couldn't possibly divulge the system's secret to anyone!
Qin Meimei's face flushed with anger. She hadn't anticipated Wang Shan possessing such a talent!
Truly a genius, he managed to refine a Yang Returning Pill in just half a day!
If other Two-star Pill Refining Masters were to learn of this, they'd surely be livid!
"Don't get too smug just because you've produced a Yang Returning Pill. We still don't know if it's effective!" Qin Meimei exclaimed in disbelief.
"If the pill works, will you warm my bed?" Wang Shan teased, giving Qin Meimei a mischievous look.
Qin Meimei's face turned a deeper shade of red. "You're utterly vile. How can someone be as shameless as you?"
"We're running out of time. Please, follow me to the mansion," the wealthy Tang Qiao interjected.
To avoid delay, Tang Qiao had a carriage ready.
Half an hour later, Wang Shan and company arrived at Zhou Mansion and entered Tang Qiao's father's bedroom.
They soon observed a lifeless middle-aged man lying on the bed, his breath faint, as if he were on the brink of death.
"Ten years ago, my father was gravely wounded and lost his memory while hunting Demonic Beasts on the battlefield. Had we not acquired a Yang Returning Pill, he might not have made it to this day! Today is crucial for the next dose to extend his life. If my father doesn't consume a genuine Yang Returning Pill, he will perish," Tang Qiao explained, her beautiful face streaked with tears, pinning all her hopes on Wang Shan.
