Chapter 478: Exciting News

~7 min read 1,329 words

After leaving Wang Jianqiang's residence, Caidie went directly to Kunshan's dwelling.

Kunshan was stunned when he saw Caidie.

Immediately after, a look of relief appeared on his face.

His Junior Sister's complexion was clearly much ruddier today than it had looked before; it seemed she had followed his advice.

"Junior Sister, your complexion looks good."

"Listening to your Senior Brother is the right thing to do; go out and relax more, and try to practice less in the near future."

"Only continue your cultivation once your mood has completely recovered."

Hearing her Senior Brother's words, Caidie nodded.

The moment she lowered her head, a flash of unnaturalness crossed her pretty face.

"Junior Sister, come inside; it has been a while since you last came to visit your Senior Brother."

Kunshan did not notice the change in Caidie's expression; as if deliberately trying to cheer her up, his voice was hearty and his smile warm.

Caidie nodded.

She walked into Kunshan's residence and sat down.

She looked at Kunshan and said after a moment of hesitation, "Senior Brother, I have found a Pill for you that can treat Soul injuries; it should be able to help you recover."

As she spoke, she took out a Jade Bottle.

She tapped her finger on the bottom of the bottle.

A Pill floated out from the Jade Bottle and flew before Kunshan.

Seeing this, Kunshan was first stunned, then he smiled and shook his head, "Junior Sister, the poison I am afflicted with is very special; it seems to have a life of its own and can grow and strengthen on its own."

"Unless it is a Perfect Pill, if I just take ordinary Pills, the Pill Poison within them will instead become nourishment for the toxin, not only having no effect at all but actually causing the toxin to grow stronger."

"Otherwise, why wouldn't your Senior Brother just leave this Outer Realm Battlefield and return to the sect to seek a cure, instead of staying here and wasting decades of time?"

"Your Senior Brother accepts your kind intentions, Junior Sister."

Caidie shook her head, "Senior Brother, take a closer look at this Pill."

Hearing Caidie's words, Kunshan was taken aback.

Only then did he pick up the Pill in front of him and examine it carefully.

Immediately following.

He froze, then looked at Caidie in astonishment, saying with some excitement, "Junior Sister~ this~ this is?"

"A Perfect Pill?"

Caidie nodded.

Seeing this, the joy on Kunshan's face could no longer be suppressed.

A moment later.

As if he had suddenly realized something, he looked at Caidie and said with a face full of shock, "Junior Sister, did you go find Wang Jianqiang? Did he actually set aside his past grievances and agree to perform Alchemy for you?"

Aside from Wang Jianqiang, he could not think of anyone else in this world capable of refining a Perfect Pill.

Especially within Wenxian City.

There was only one person capable of refining a Perfect Pill, and that was Wang Jianqiang—he was the only one.

Therefore.

One didn't need to guess where Junior Sister had obtained the Perfect Pill.

Upon hearing this, Caidie nodded, "Wang Jianqiang is a man of broad mind; after I apologized to him, he did not continue to hold it against me and agreed to refine the Pill for me."

Naturally, she could not tell her Senior Brother the specific reason why Wang Jianqiang was willing to refine the Pill for her.

For this reason.

She could only go against her conscience and say words that made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Upon hearing this, Kunshan immediately revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

Originally, he had been worrying about how to bury the hatchet with Wang Jianqiang.

After all.

The temptation of an Alchemist capable of refining Perfect Pills was too great.

If he could restore his relationship with him, there would be many benefits.

He had not expected his Junior Sister to give him such a surprise.

He pondered for a moment and said to Caidie, "Since Daoist Friend Wang is so broad-minded, Junior Sister, do you think I should also go and apologize to him in person to ease our relationship?"

Caidie was startled and hurriedly shook her head, "Senior Brother, I think it would be better not to."

Seeing Caidie react so strongly, Kunshan was stunned, "Why?"

Caidie's expression shifted, and she said, "Senior Brother's character has always been proud; I do not wish to see you be so humble before others."

Hearing Caidie's words, Kunshan felt a wave of emotion in his heart.

To keep him from being humble, his Junior Sister had chosen to be humble herself to beg Wang Jianqiang.

Such loyalty and affection made his heart feel warm.

He looked at Caidie's beautiful face, which revealed obvious signs of fatigue, and sighed, "Junior Sister, you have worked hard for your Senior Brother's sake."

Caidie shook her head.

Kunshan thought for a moment and continued, "Perfect Pills are incomparably precious and of huge benefit to us; we will inevitably need them in the future, so your Senior Brother still feels it is necessary for me to reconcile with Wang Jianqiang."

"I can't always let you, Junior Sister, go and beg him, Wang Jianqiang, in a servile manner, can I?"

"Rather than that, your Senior Brother would rather go himself."

Hearing Kunshan's firm tone, Caidie's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly advised, "Senior Brother is, after all, the source of the conflict between us and Wang Jianqiang; while he could forgive me, he might not necessarily forgive you."

"If you were to go rashly, it might very well be counterproductive, and the relationship I have worked so hard to ease might also be affected."

Kunshan was taken aback, nodded, and a look of lingering fear appeared on his face.

"Junior Sister is still the more thoughtful one; it was Senior Brother who was impulsive."

"It's just that if we want to obtain more Perfect Pills in the future, I will have to trouble you, Junior Sister."

Caidie's expression faltered, but she quickly covered it up.

She nodded with a smile.

Afterwards, she thought of Wang Jianqiang's voice transmission.

After pondering for a moment, she said to Kunshan, "Senior Brother, guess who I saw at Wang Jianqiang's place?"

"Who?" Kunshan asked, puzzled.

"Xiao Ke Ke," said Caidie.

Hmm?

Kunshan's eyes widened slightly, "Xiao Ke Ke is Wei Yuan's childhood sweetheart. Wei Yuan offended Wang Jianqiang so severely before, how could Xiao Ke Ke appear at Wang Jianqiang's place?"

Speaking of this, his expression shifted, "Could it be that Xiao Ke Ke, just like you, went to apologize to Wang Jianqiang and obtained his forgiveness?"

Caidie shook her head, "She has already voluntarily become Wang Jianqiang's Personal Maid."

Hearing Caidie's words, Kunshan thought he had misheard.

"Xiao Ke Ke voluntarily became Wang Jianqiang's maid?"

"No way, right?"

"Is there some kind of misunderstanding in this?"

Caidie shook her head, "This matter was told to me by Wang Jianqiang himself, in front of Xiao Ke Ke."

Hearing this.

Kunshan suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"Wei Yuan, oh Wei Yuan..."

"You have always prided yourself on being a genius of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, arrogant and conceited."

"Now that your childhood sweetheart has become someone else's Personal Maid, let's see how arrogant you can be!"

At this moment, Kunshan suddenly felt as if the clouds had parted to reveal the moon.

For a long time, his conflicts with Wei Yuan had always ended with him being humiliated.

Now, he had finally grasped Wei Yuan's weak point and saw the hope of trampling Wei Yuan under his feet in humiliation.

It was a pity, though.

Wei Yuan had left Wenxian City a year ago and had yet to return.

He could not immediately notify him of this "thrilling" news.

Presumably, after learning this news, Wei Yuan's expression would be quite spectacular, right?

He could hardly wait to see Wei Yuan's reaction.
