The gorgeous maidservant shuddered before she hurriedly responded with extreme deference, "This subordinate shall honor your order!"
The woman's beautiful image then transformed into a ray of light and disappeared from Zuo Shangchen's eyes.
Zuo Shangchen turned to look at Gu Ruoyun's location before turning away again almost immediately. He murmured to himself, "Shengxiao, don't worry. I will take good care of Xiao Yun'er and I will find you as well..."
...
Gu Ruoyun had been completely unaware of this.
There was no way that she would find out about this at all.
Hence, once Zuo Shangchen has left, her gaze fell upon Bai Zhongtian once again. She gently raised her brow and asked, "Master, aren't you planning on consuming that pill?"
"Oh, I nearly forgot."
Bai Zhongtian suddenly remembered about the pill which Gu Ruoyun had given to him three days ago. He then swallowed it without another word.
Gu Ruoyun was dumbstruck when she saw his actions.
I had only reminded him so that he would not forget to take the pill but I didn't think that he would swallow it now!
After all, a Martial Supreme's breakthrough will create quite a powerful sensation. Without any preparation, this entire room might actually be blown to pieces.
Soon, Gu Ruoyun's prediction came true.
As soon as Bai Zhongtian had swallowed the pill, the power from within his body began to drain immediately. The entire guest room then exploded with a loud bang, exposing the both of them to the clear, bright sky.
Boom!
Boom, boom!
The sound of continuous explosions could be heard as an endless amount of power began to spread out freely, destroying all the trees in the vicinity!
The entire sky then turned dark and a powerful storm appeared above Bai Zhongtian's head. It almost looked like an enormous black hole had appeared and they would all be sucked into it...
"This... This is..."
Gao Lin, who had been discussing some matters with Lin Yang in the study, suddenly sensed the powerful storm. He immediately stood up and widened his eyes at the sight of the dark gray sky.
"This is the type of storm which will only appear during a Martial Saint's breakthrough! Could the Holy Doctor have had another breakthrough? How could this be? I remember that this old fellow had only just broken through to the rank of a high-level Martial Supreme not too long ago. He can't possibly rise to become a Martial Saint so quickly! No, this won't do. I must go and ask this fellow and find out what kind of luck he's run into!"
Whoosh!
Once Gao Lin finished speaking, he hurriedly rushed out the door. He did not even have the time to give Lin Yang an explanation as he flew towards the storm's direction.
The storm continued for quite a while before it gradually dissipated.
At this moment, countless elders and disciples have gathered at the courtyard where Bai Zhongtian was standing and were all staring at him in admiration.
After all, this was a Martial Saint!
It was an existence that they all looked up to!
No one thought that they would have the opportunity to witness the rare phenomenon of a Martial Saint's birth! They would have the right to boast about it now! After all, not everybody would have the chance to witness someone's Martial Saint breakthrough!
It took Bai Zhongtian some time to come out from his daze after the storm has completely disappeared. His elderly eyes stared foolishly at Gu Ruoyun as he asked dazedly, "Little girl, what is the meaning of this?"
I had only swallowed a pill, why did I have a breakthrough after that?
Could it be...
Bai Zhongtian thought of something and his entire body quivered!
Could it be that this pill has the ability to allow a high-level Martial Supreme to break through to the level of a Martial Saint immediately?
Heavens, this was an existence that defies the Heavens! A Martial Saint was exceptionally powerful yet this pill had the ability to cause a high-level Martial Supreme to breakthrough to the Martial Saint rank! If word of this were to get out, Wind Valley would definitely not let Gu Ruoyun slip away ever again.
