Chapter 269 - Know This, Know That (1/2)

“Senior Brother… I—” Ling Yichen was stunned after he heard Fu Chengyu’s words. He stuttered and was unable to finish his sentence.

“How could I not tell the matters of your heart?” asked Fu Chengyu with a smile. “Go on, work hard on your cultivation. The compet.i.tion is about to start very soon.”

“All right. Thank you, Senior Brother,” expressed Ling Yichen sincerely after taking a deep breath.

“Between you and I who are brothers, there is no need for thanks,” replied Fu Chengyu with a smile. To Fu Chengyu, “brother” was a word only Ling Yichen had the right to bear. As for those other Imperial Brothers of his, there had never been the least bit of brotherly love between them. “However, you need to be extremely careful. Don’t be overanxious to succeed,” cautioned Fu Chengyu. He still could not be a.s.sured and instructed Ling Yichen once again.

“All right. I got it. Be rest a.s.sured, Senior Brother,” said Ling Yichen as he nodded with a solemn expression.

At this moment, Ling Chuxi was bringing Lan Xinyu to buy herbs.

“What on earth? You don’t have any money? You pighead. You actually used up all your money to gamble. Now we don’t even have money to buy herbs!” said Ling Chuxi angrily, wis.h.i.+ng she could choke Lan Xinyu to death.

“Aren’t you just the same?!” retorted Lan Xinyu as she glared at Ling Chuxi. Ling Chuxi had also used up all the money she had to gamble and even borrowed quite a bit from Fu Chengyu, and yet she still had the cheek to comment on others!

“However, what do you want to buy the herbs for?” asked Lan Xinyu softly. Furthermore, the herbs she wanted to purchase seemed to be expensive.

“To help refine a pill for you. A Tian Luo Pill. So that you can break through to Level 8 faster,” replied Ling Chuxi in an even more hushed tone. After she finished speaking, she immediately covered Lan Xinyu’s mouth to prevent her from yelling out loud.

Lan Xinyu’s mouth was covered but her eyes were wide and round as she looked at Ling Chuxi in disbelief. ‘What did she just say?! Refine a pill? Help her to break through to Level 8?! With a Tian Luo Pill?! How could Ling Chuxi possibly know how to refine an advanced tier Tian Luo Pill?’
