She never anticipated the emergence of such a remarkably talented individual within the Shen family.
“Fifth Heaven of the Martial Warrior Realm,” sighed the Emperor of Southern Mist, his tone filled with amazement. “How many individuals spend their entire lives stuck at the Ninth Heaven of the Martial Master Realm? Even the heads of many Shen family branches never surpass the Ninth Heaven of the Martial Master Realm in their lifetimes. Yet here you are, at such a young age, already at the Ninth Heaven of the Martial Warrior Realm. You stand alone in all of Southern Mist!”
Beyond the considerations of strategy and politics, Emperor Southern Mist was genuinely taken aback.
“Why wasn’t the Shen family aware of your talents before? What happened?” Emperor Southern Mist inquired, puzzled. Previously, it was widely known that she hadn’t even achieved the level of a Martial Master. Why, then, hadn’t the Shen family brought her to the palace earlier? Her sudden breakthrough was a mystery.
The Emperor of Southern Mist was intensely curious and found the situation almost unbelievable.
Gu Chaoyan had no reason to conceal the truth.
She explained, “I originally possessed limited aptitude for cultivation, which kept my cultivation level quite low. However, fate intervened a few days ago when I encountered an expert from another continent. This expert offered guidance and provided me with some remarkable pills. After taking these pills, my progress skyrocketed. The expert even took me as a disciple briefly, but had to depart abruptly for urgent matters. Before leaving, the expert taught my mother the art of pill refinement.”
“I had intended to introduce her to Your Majesty, but alas, the opportunity was missed, ” Gu Chaoyan lamented.
Upon hearing her explanation, the Emperor of Southern Mist’s initial frustration began to dissipate.
Considering that the expert hailed from another continent, it was only natural for them to move on eventually.
Nevertheless, the pills and their expertise could prove highly valuable to Southern Mist.
As she spoke…
Gu Chaoyan took out the pills. “Apart from what the master told me to eat, the pills he left behind before he left are all here. I am not willing to use them anymore.”
“This is the cultivation bead that my mother entrusted me to present to Your Majesty. It is used in conjunction with medicinal pills and has an exceptionally potent effect,” Gu Chaoyan explained.
Emperor Southern Mist’s face lit up with a warm smile.
She had a keen sense of what was expected of her.
She understood the importance of offering valuable gifts to the palace.
“Excellent, excellent,” Emperor Southern Mist accepted the bead without hesitation. Regardless of whether he personally used it, there were numerous princes within the palace. It would undoubtedly prove to be a valuable asset. Naturally, he coveted such a remarkable item, hoping it could elevate the princes to the rank of Martial Warriors, which would bring him immense relief.
Curiosity piqued, Emperor Southern Mist inquired, “Why did your master choose to teach your mother how to refine pills instead of doing it personally?” “Ah, indeed,” he continued, contemplating the potential benefits.
After all, having someone within the palace skilled in pill refinement could offer substantial advantages, and Emperor Southern Mist was contemplating how to leverage this newfound resource.
Gu Chaoyan responded, “My master believed that I lacked the necessary qualifications, and he mentioned that he had never encountered anyone with the aptitude to refine pills except for my mother. It appears that my mother’s background played a significant role.”
Naturally, she had fabricated this entire scenario herself.
It was for no other reason.
Her ultimate goal was to ensure that Lady You remained the sole practitioner of cultivation and alchemy in all of Southern Mist. By achieving this, she could secure the royal family’s protection for Lady You in the future, making her untouchable by anyone else.
Once her mission was completed, she could peacefully retire. Emperor Southern Mist let out a regretful sigh. “I see.”
“Yes,” she confirmed.
Though his original plan had failed, upon reflection, this outcome was indeed favorable.
With the aid of the pill, Southern Mist would no longer need to fear Chengqi Country. This development was undeniably advantageous..
