Chapter 191: Chapter 193 Beidou Fuling Pill

Upon hearing Mu Can’s question, Bing’er, whose eyes were originally filled with laughter, suddenly turned cold.

Mu Can was startled, knowing that the current situation might not be good, otherwise Bing’er would not have such an expression.

"What’s wrong?" Mu Can asked.

"Currently, Master is representing the academy in negotiations with the eight big Hidden Families, but those people are very greedy. If the Mortal World cannot satisfy their demands, they threaten to defect to the Immortal World," Bing’er said softly, her voice clear and pleasant.

"What is the stance of the Immortal World right now?" Mu Can couldn’t wait to find out the true predicament of the Mortal World; if the Immortal World was hostile, then the Mortal World would be facing great trouble.

"The people from the Immortal World came here wanting to help us, but the price is that we must permanently cede the land of Immortal Ancient Academy. The academy’s upper echelons have not agreed, but have not explicitly rejected the offer either. So, the Immortal World forces are currently stationed outside Immortal Ancient Academy, confronting the Demon World’s army from a distance," Bing’er said crisply. Among Xuanyuan Mingkong’s direct disciples in Immortal Ancient Academy, Bing’er was the most intelligent and had the clearest understanding of the situation.

If Mu Can went to ask Old Hu and Little Mu, they would not be able to provide any effective information.

"Right, are negotiations still ongoing?" Mu Can nodded his head and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"Yes, those people from the Hidden Families are too arrogant. They just arrived and injured our academy’s disciples, strutting around the academy all day," Old Hu said with a resentful expression.

"Oh? There’s such a matter? Don’t you know how to fight back?" Upon hearing that someone within the Hidden Families had actually bullied the people of the Mortal World, Mu Can’s anger flared up suddenly.

The Mortal World is facing great changes, and not only do you not help, but you also come here to throw your weight around. This is complete ingratitude.

"Where are they?" Mu Can’s gaze turned icy. Now that he had returned to the Immortal Ancient Academy, he didn’t mind going to dampen these people’s arrogance first, preferably provoking the old ones from the Hidden Families to take action to intimidate them for a while.

"They are at Lan Pavilion, and they have even set up some sort of ring there, proclaiming they want to challenge the entire Immortal Ancient Academy," Mu Yuhang said.

Mu Can looked at Old Hu, who seemed to have more to say yet hesitated, and raised an eyebrow.

"What are you hemming and hawing about?"

Seeing Mu Can get angry, Old Hu immediately spilled the hesitant words he had held back. In Immortal Ancient Academy, Old Hu feared no one, not even Xuanyuan Mingkong, but he did fear Mu Can. The moment Mu Can became angry, Old Hu immediately turned into a trembling kitten.

Under the pressure of Mu Can’s questioning, Old Hu finally revealed the truth.

Donghuang had recently gotten quite close to the Hidden Families, conspiring to help outsiders against the students of Immortal Ancient Academy.

"Heh heh, you reap what you sow," Mu Can’s mouth twisted into a wry smile, and right now, even as a great enemy loomed, Mu Can’s failure to seek immediate revenge on Donghuang did not mean he had forgotten the grudge against him.

"Bing’er Senior Sister couldn’t accept Donghuang and his group’s behavior, challenged them on stage and got injured. Not only that, Donghuang even declared that he would humiliate everyone associated with you, one by one." Mu Yuhang’s face soured, and tears almost fell.

"No wonder your energy seems unstable; it turns out you were injured." Mu Can slowly said after looking at Bing’er.

With his current strength, it was easy for him to see that Bing’er was injured. He had originally thought that it was because of a fight with the Demon Clan, but he never imagined it was because of Donghuang.

Mu Can took out a Healing Holy Medicine he had refined, the Beidou Fuling Pill, which to this day was the best healing holy medicine he could create. It incorporated not only various rare medicinal herbs from the Mortal World, but also Spirit Fruit charged with Soul Power from one layer of the Reincarnation Pearl. Even with Mu Can’s current cultivation and alchemy skills, he had only refined three of these pills, and now he was giving one away.

However, Mu Can did not feel the slightest bit pained by this. Although his relationship with Bing’er was not especially close, he understood that this was simply Bing’er’s natural disposition. Ultimately, the bond between the two siblings did not need to be spoken aloud.

"This is too precious." Bing’er immediately declined upon seeing the elixir brought out by Mu Can.

The Zhang Family, where Bing’er came from, was regarded as the richest in the Mortal World. She had been exposed to countless treasures and spiritual elixirs since childhood, yet she had never seen an elixir of this level.

The vital essence spiraling around the Fuling Pill itself took the shape of small dragons circulating the elixir. The surface of the round pill had three clouds of elixir energy carved upon it, appearing incredibly mysterious. A mere glance was enough to captivate Bing’er and the others deeply; just the fragrance of the Fuling Pill made them feel as if the injuries on their bodies were beginning to heal.

Despite longing for the Supreme Treasure Pill, Bing’er’s wisdom still overcame the impulse. Such a pill could be considered a second life, and using it for her injuries seemed like an extravagant waste. Thus, she turned her head away from the elixir and decisively rejected Mu Can’s offer.

"If I tell you to take it, you take it," Mu Can said with a raised eyebrow, sharp as two little knives.

"Senior Brother, this is too precious." Bing’er refused firmly, pursing her lips and looking at Mu Can stubbornly.

"Don’t worry, I have more." Mu Can then took out another two pills and flashed them in front of Bing’er.

"Mu Can Senior Brother, you didn’t rob some Dan Saint, did you?" Bing’er exclaimed in shock. Three Supreme Treasure Pills laid in front of her; such a pill could revive even a Wu Zun on the brink of death in an instant. Under normal circumstances, the appearance of one pill could cause great disturbances, yet here were three all at once.

"Don’t forget that your Senior Brother here is a top-tier Alchemist." Mu Can had nearly never seen Bing’er in such astonishment before.

In his memory, no matter what she encountered, Bing’er always maintained a cool demeanor as if nothing could affect her mood. But upon seeing three such pills from Mu Can, Bing’er’s expression actually changed.

"Take it." Mu Can took advantage of Bing’er’s momentary daze to stuff the pill into her hand.

"Brother Can, I’m also injured," Old Hu said pitifully, looking up at Mu Can. He might have been slow to catch on, but he certainly knew that the elixir in Mu Can’s hand must be extraordinary, otherwise, it wouldn’t have made the typically composed Sister Bing’er reveal such an expression.

"Brother Can, don’t listen to Old Hu, he’s perfectly fine," Mu Yuhang bluntly exposed him.

"Who said that? Little fatty, Old Hu has been caring for you in vain; you know I’ve been having stomach issues recently," Old Hu huffed, his pretense somewhat convincing.

"Alright, cut the act, I haven’t forgotten about you guys," Mu Can said, tossing a pill to Old Hu. Although such elixirs were precious, to the current Mu Can, they were merely healing medicine with slightly better effects.
