"Master, Zixie won't be waking up so soon." Yunyao glanced at Gu Ruoyun and said, "However, I believe that when he awakens, his power will have greatly increased."

When that time comes, perhaps Master would not need to worry about the First City anymore.

However...

Whenever Yunyao remembers the enemy who had caused great injuries to she and her friends, her gaze would darken but she would only sigh in the end.

"I'm excited to see him reemerge and fight by my side again." Gu Ruoyun smiled faintly before a distracted look flashed in her eyes. After a long pause, she turned away and said, "The Medicine Sect's general meeting will start soon. Master must be waiting anxiously. As for the Ancient Divine Pagoda's reward for my breakthrough into a Martial Supreme, it wouldn't hurt to wait until after the Medicine Sect's general meeting to see it."

Each time she has a breakthrough to a new rank, the Ancient Divine Pagoda would bestow a gift to her. This next gift had been awaiting her breakthrough to a Martial Supreme!

I wonder what gifts I would receive this time?

However, regardless of how curious she was feeling, Gu Ruoyun still chose to attend the Medicine Sect's general meeting first. After all, the Holy Doctor was already waiting for her outside. If she were to delay any further, that old geezer would probably flip out and instantly pound her room to the ground.

She did not delay any further at the thought of this and with a single shift in thought, she left the Ancient Divine Pagoda.

At this moment, it was already late in the morning.

Gu Ruoyun left the Ancient Divine Pagoda and crawled out from her bed. She then walked to her room's door and opened it with a creak 1 . Soon, the glow of the morning sun washed through the room, shining upon the woman's green robes to create a delicate, moving and pretty picture.

Except...

When she saw the ugly look on the elderly man's face outside the door, Gu Ruoyun's mouth twitched mildly. She yawned and said, "Master, you're early."

"Early?" Bai Zhongtian glared at Gu Ruoyun, "Do you know what time it is? Have you forgotten what day it is? The Medicine Sect's general meeting has already begun! What if someone were to refine the pill first? My reputation would then go down the drain."

Gu Ruoyun shrugged disapprovingly as her gaze swept from the old man towards the delicate youth next to him. She raised her brows and asked, "Yu'er, are you attending the Medicine Sect's general meeting as well?"

Xia Linyu scratched his head as a shy smile appeared on his delicate features, "Sis, I'm quite curious about this pill formula as well. Still, I think that no one can be better than you at refining pills."

Others may not know this but how could I, who have journeyed from the West Spirit Mainland, feign ignorance when it comes to this matter?

Would a pill formula remain a mere pill formula in my sister's hands? She is the only person on this mainland who has the ability to refine pills!

"Alright," Gu Ruoyun smiled before she turned towards Bai Zhongtian, "Master, shall we leave now?"

"Let's go."

Bai Zhongtian glared at her irritably. He had intended to give his tardy disciple a good talking-to but he could not bring himself to it. He could only restrain himself and head to the Medicine Sect's general meeting.

The plaza was overcrowded with people. Aside from powerful cultivators who had been drawn by the allure of pills, there were also many Medicine Sect disciples who curiously eyed the cauldron that has been placed right in the very middle of the plaza.

Pills!

To most people, these were mythical objects! Forget about witnessing the pill refining process in person, they would never be able to see a single fully refined pill in their entire life.

Especially since almost all the pill formulas have been destroyed during the ancient times with hardly any left. It was for this very reason that no Pill Masters could ever come into existence on this mainland again!
