Chapter 160
"What do you think of the pill, Matriarch?" Elder Deng asked her for her opinions . "How does it compare to a high-quality pill?"
"This is without a doubt a pill with 100% quality — a flawless-quality pill . " Matriarch Zhu's arms trembled just from holding the bottle . "As for the pill's strength… unless I try it myself, I will have no way to compare the two . "
"But this pill… even with this many seals on the bottle, I can still smell the fresh aroma coming from it . "
Elder Deng sighed, "Just who is this young man…? He's full of nothing but shocking abilities and secrets that we cannot comprehend . "
" . . . "
Matriarch Zhu did not reply to him and remained silent . Although she's pretty much recognized Su Yang as Immortal Fairy Su Yue's son, it was still hard to believe it .
"Just where is Immortal Fairy Su Yue now? And why would her son appear out of the blue? Is this related to the Ghost Girl's appearance?" she wondered to herself .
"Umm…" Qing Shan silently stood there while Matriarch Zhu held the Advanced Spirit Refreshment Pill tightly in her grasp, seemingly unwilling to let it go . Although she had prepared for such results beforehand, she was still afraid that the Matriarch would try to take this precious pill away from her, and her heart would definitely bleed if that were to happen .
"Hmm?" Matriarch Zhu noticed the way Qing Shan was staring at her nervously and smiled, "Relax, Qing Shan . I will not lie and say I don't want this pill for myself — as a matter of fact, I really do — but I will not stoop as low as to steal it from my own disciple . "
She said as she handed the bottle back to her .
Qing Shan sighed in relief inwardly after holding the pill in her hands again .
Matriarch Zhu then continued, "Although I will not take this pill away from you for nothing, I do not plan on doing nothing, either . I have many generous offers in my mind that I would like to trade for this pill, so why don't we sit down and talk about them?"
Hearing her words, Qing Shan showed her an apologetic smile, and said, "I'm sorry, Matriarch, but I have no intention to give away this pill for anything — no matter what . "
" . . . "
Matriarch Zhu turned silent, and so did Elder Deng . They understood her feelings perfectly . If they were in her shoes they would also be saying the same thing no matter who the offer came from .
"It is regrettable, but I fully understand . " Matriarch Zhu shook her head, feeling dejected . "Be sure to keep that pill safe — even if it costs you your life!"
"I will!" Qing Shan did not need Matriarch Zhu to tell her such a thing, as she would've done it even without her words .
Matriarch Zhu and Elder Deng left a little bit later .
"What should we do about him now?" Elder Deng asked her .
"You just need to focus on your part . I have my own thoughts . "
" . . . Yes, Matriarch . " Elder Deng did not speak anymore .
Elder Deng and Matriarch Zhu walked their separate ways a little bit later .
Sometime later, after a quick detour around the Sect, looking like she was searching for somebody, Matriarch Zhu called for a few Core Disciples to meet her .
