After repeatedly confirming and clearly seeing the seven Medicinal Pills in Qing Chen's hand, Du Yuan's body trembled, and he staggered back two steps, exclaiming in horror, "This, this isn't a fifth-grade, this is a sixth-grade Medicinal Pill!"
"Sixth-grade?!"
Han Qingyue and Liu Wu exclaimed in unison, their astonishment clearly written on their faces.
It felt as if even continuously adding the word "Prodigy" like "Prodigy among Prodigies among Prodigies..." would not be enough to describe Qing Chen's talent.
This talent, which was not only all-encompassing but also top-tier in every aspect, was truly terrifying!
With their limited vision, they could no longer imagine how exaggerated a realm Qing Chen's future growth would reach.
Great Emperor?
Not enough, far from enough!
Before Han Qingyue and Liu Wu could react, something even more astonishing unfolded before their eyes once again.
Du Yuan returned to Qing Chen's front in two steps, and without the slightest hesitation, he bent his knees, knelt down, and kowtowed, saying, "I beg Young Master Qing, no, I beg Great Master Qing to accept me as your disciple!"
He was convinced; Du Yuan had never been so utterly convinced by someone as he was at this moment.
He believed that if he could just become Qing Chen's disciple and learn even a fraction of his skills, he might also have a chance to touch upon the word Supreme in the future.
"Great Master Du, please rise. I have only recently entered the Dao of Alchemy, and there are some things I haven't even figured out myself. How can I accept a disciple and mislead others?"
Qing Chen's words were eloquent, but in reality, he simply found it troublesome.
Of course, if Han Qingyue were to make such a request, Qing Chen would undoubtedly agree without hesitation.
As for Du Yuan, since they were not related, he decided against it.
Before Du Yuan could speak, Qing Chen added, "Of course, if Great Master Du wishes to exchange Alchemy experiences and insights, I welcome you at any time."
"Certainly, certainly!" Qing Chen had already spoken to this extent, so no matter how thick-skinned Du Yuan was, he couldn't continue to pester him.
Being able to exchange Alchemy experiences and insights with Qing Chen was, in his opinion, also a good option.
Perhaps if their relationship grew closer in the future, he might truly be able to become his disciple?
Subsequently, Qing Chen walked over to Han Qingyue, handing her all the Medicinal Pills in his hand. "Madam, please take and refine these Medicinal Pills. Your husband will act as your Protector from the side."
"Good!" Han Qingyue had no intention of refusing Qing Chen's kindness, worrying that doing so would instead make her relationship with him seem distant.
That's right, even Han Qingyue had to admit that her distance from Qing Chen was indeed very, very close.
Seeing that Qing Chen was going to protect Han Qingyue during her Cultivation, Liu Wu gave Du Yuan a look.
Du Yuan understood, not being so tactless, and left the Pill Refining Room with Liu Wu, one after the other.
Subsequently, the Pill Refining Room door slowly closed, leaving only Han Qingyue and Qing Chen inside the entire Pill Refining Room.
Han Qingyue couldn't help but ask, "Husband, don't you think you are excessively good to me?"
"You are my only wife. If I'm not good to you, who should I be good to?" Qing Chen retorted.
"That's not necessarily true. There are countless beautiful women in this world. You might meet other confidantes in the future." For some reason, Han Qingyue felt a little stifled when she brought up such matters now.
In the Great Han Dynasty, it was normal for prominent families to have multiple wives and concubines. Originally, Han Qingyue had always thought she could calmly handle such matters, and that Qing Chen could marry whomever he wished, even if he gave them the position of main wife, it wouldn't matter.
But after briefly imagining that scene in her mind, Han Qingyue couldn't smile and felt heavy-hearted.
"Having my wife alone is enough." Qing Chen took Han Qingyue's hand and said affectionately.
"..." Meeting Qing Chen's firm and sincere eyes, Han Qingyue's eyes also flickered with a strange brilliance.
Blushing, she quickly averted her gaze and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Let's, let's Cultivate."
"Good." Qing Chen smiled slightly, his eyes full of doting affection.
Then, Han Qingyue sat cross-legged, first taking one of the Medicinal Pills personally refined by Qing Chen, putting it into her mouth, and beginning to refine it...
As the Medicinal Pill entered her mouth, a System prompt simultaneously appeared before Qing Chen's eyes:
[Successful Wife-Pampering! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a random reward: Supreme Bone +1!]
'Supreme Bone?!'
Qing Chen clearly understood that possessing this bone meant having the potential to become a Supreme powerhouse, greatly increasing Cultivation speed. Not only that, but each Supreme Bone carried a unique precious technique.
Supreme Bones were rare in the world and often appeared with the birth of children, belonging to the blessings of the Heavenly Dao.
Once they appeared, if the family was powerful, it would surely rise to the next level.
If it was an ordinary family, they would be targeted by powerful Cultivators, who would forcibly dig out the bone and strip away the talent!
The appearance of a single Supreme Bone, looking back at the vast history, had caused countless large and small bloody battles.
Not bad, Qing Chen was very satisfied with this reward.
He clicked to select Fusion, anticipating what kind of unique precious technique he would obtain from it.
[Fusing Supreme Bone...]
[Fusion successful!]
The next moment, a precious technique named "Ten Thousand Dragons Spear Art" appeared in Qing Chen's mind.
This spear art had no upper limit. For every layer of Cultivation progress, one could unleash the power of one Dragon.
Ten Thousand layers meant the power of Ten Thousand Dragons!
One hundred thousand, one million, ten million, one hundred million, all were Ten Thousand!
After reading the System's introduction to the "Ten Thousand Dragons Spear Art," Qing Chen only had two words in his mind: abnormal!
And he wanted to Cultivate the Ten Thousand Dragons Spear Art to the Ten Thousand-layer as soon as possible to see what a shocking scene it would be to unleash the power of Ten Thousand Dragons with one spear.
While he was envisioning the future, the System once again popped up a notification. It turned out that Han Qingyue had already begun refining the second Medicinal Pill.
[Successful Wife-Pampering! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a random reward: Heaven Rank High-Grade Cultivation Technique, Heaven-Slaying One Sword!]
No need for further inspection. Just by the words "Heaven Rank High-Grade Cultivation Technique" and "Heaven-Slaying One Sword," Qing Chen could easily know how powerful this Cultivation Technique was.
Combined with the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Body, the power of this sword would double!
The might of one sword could slay Heaven and destroy gods!
As Han Qingyue's refining speed grew faster and faster, Qing Chen's rewards also became more and more numerous...
[Successful Wife-Pampering! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a random reward: Heart Protecting Mirror +10!]
[Heart Protecting Mirror: Can withstand ten fatal injuries, even a Great Emperor's strike can be blocked without any harm!]
Qing Chen, who possessed the Undying and Imperishable Body, naturally had no use for such an item. He thought he could give them to his father Qing Xiong and his wife Han Qingyue.
[Successful Wife-Pampering! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a random reward: Comprehension Ability +500!]
'How, how much?!'
Qing Chen almost couldn't suppress his voice, but fortunately, he quickly closed his mouth and held it back.
The number five hundred, coupled with the word Comprehension Ability, truly made his blood boil.
The higher his Comprehension Ability, the more effortlessly he could Cultivate top-tier Cultivation Techniques like Heaven-Slaying One Sword and Ten Thousand Dragons Spear Art.
[Successful Wife-Pampering! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a random reward: Shadow Puppet +10000!]
Qing Chen would never have too many Shadow Puppet rewards; the more, the better.
...
While things were looking good for them, the Dynasty's secret agent had already returned to the Imperial Palace, deciding to inform the Emperor of everything that had happened in the Qingcheng Sect.
