Chapter 81 It’s broken! Uncle Six has a beauty trap!

Have to say, Yu Shufei's suggestion sounds very good. It can increase the production of pills and also prevent the Pill Formula from being leaked.

Xu Qingzhou appeared to be considering, but in reality, he wanted to hear Xu Luo's inner thoughts. After all, he himself didn't understand the situation at Wanbao Pavilion, nor did he know if these three types of pills were suitable for this approach.

When they attended the Wanbao Pavilion auction together previously, Xu Luo saw the words on the Wanbao Pavilion plaque and remarked, "So those are that old guy's words, no wonder I felt a sense of familiarity."

This indicated that he had a good relationship with the high-level members of Wanbao Pavilion in his previous life.

Furthermore, since these three Pill Formulas were all given by him, his ideas held significant reference value.

Xu Luo stood to the side and naturally overheard their conversation. He didn't speak, merely listened silently.

[This Yu Shufei is indeed quite shrewd. The Qi Gathering Pill isn't suitable, but judging from the refining process of the Condensing Consciousness Pill and Increasing Yuan Pill, this approach is feasible. There's no need to worry about the Pill Formula being leaked.]

[I'll discuss it with Sixth Uncle later. This cooperation is fine. If something unexpected truly happens, I can also find a way to contact that old guy.]

Hearing his inner thoughts, Xu Qingzhou had an idea.

"Manager Yu, that's a good suggestion. Once this matter is resolved, we can finalize the specific cooperation plan."

Seeing that Xu Qingzhou had agreed so readily, Yu Shufei was slightly taken aback, then smiled sweetly and couldn't help but praise him.

"Clan Leader Xu, what courage! Aren't you afraid that our Wanbao Pavilion might cause trouble?"

As she spoke, a smile graced her lovely face, accompanied by a hint of playfulness.

Xu Luo, who was standing nearby, was also somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected him to agree directly without much consideration.

[Oh no! Sixth Uncle couldn't have fallen for this Yu Shufei and her honey trap, could he? Why did he agree directly!]

[If they actually end up together, what should I call that old guy when I see him in the future?]

Normally, for such a significant matter, one should consider it or discuss it with the Other Elders.

Xu Qingzhou agreed too decisively, which is why both of them were surprised.

"Business is based on integrity. If Wanbao Pavilion lacked integrity, it wouldn't have grown this large, so I trust you."

These were just polite words. Integrity aside, it's usually about interests.

Had he not heard Xu Luo's inner thoughts, he wouldn't have risked cooperating with Wanbao Pavilion. After all, they are powerful, and if something truly went wrong, the Xu Family would have no way to deal with them.

"Alright! I, Yu Shufei, can guarantee right here that I will absolutely not betray Clan Leader Xu's trust!" Yu Shufei suddenly declared with a serious expression.

How you guarantee it doesn't concern me. Anyway, my cooperation with you is simply because I trust Xu Luo.

At this moment, people from the Lingyue Sect arrived. Those who came were all Inner Sect Elders, not the strongest ones. They were more knowledgeable and more skilled at healing, as they weren't here to fight today after all.

After the Elders arrived, they didn't pay attention to anyone else. The first one to smile greeted Xu Qingzhou.

The higher a person's status in the Lingyue Sect, the more they understood Xu Muge's importance to the Lingyue Sect, so they also maintained a degree of respect towards Xu Qingzhou.

It was precisely because they hadn't arrived earlier. If they had been there, Lan Jiang wouldn't have dared to utter a single word.

After about the time it takes for another stick of incense to burn, everyone present suddenly felt a wave of coldness wash over them.

They turned their heads to look towards the stage, which had originally been used for the auction.

They saw a man carrying a crystal coffin walk out. The man was tall, his eyes were sharp, his Aura was like an abyss or a sea, resembling a sleeping ancient fierce beast.

Everyone understood that he was the former generation's Heavenly Prodigy, Shangguan Zhuo. His entrance was quite ordinary, but his presence commanded attention.

The crystal coffin that Shangguan Zhuo was carrying contained a woman in blue frozen by a special type of ice; she was his wife, Lan Ying.

Most people's attention was on Lan Ying, as she was the key. Saving her would secure a hundred years of allegiance from the Heavenly Prodigy figure and Divine Soul Completion realm expert, Shangguan Zhuo.

"Everyone."

Shangguan Zhuo's voice wasn't particularly loud, but it was resonant and carried a unique presence. The moment he spoke, the scene immediately fell silent, and everyone's gaze turned towards him.

"I am Shangguan Zhuo. Although everyone might already know about my situation, I still need to reiterate it."

"Lying within the ice coffin is my wife. Whoever can heal her, I, Shangguan Zhuo, am willing to follow them for a hundred years, enduring hardship without complaint."

"Thank you all for your efforts."

Shangguan Zhuo didn't say much, but his words were powerful and resonant. He cupped his hands, signaling that everyone could begin.

At once, the experts from the various forces present all walked up to the stage to observe Lan Ying's condition up close.

Given the Xu Family's strength, Xu Qingzhou and Xu Luo should have been in the corner, but being with the Lingyue Sect, they were instead standing at the very front.

At first glance, Lan Ying in the ice coffin looked like a corpse. Only by carefully observing with Divine Soul could one detect a faint trace of life in her.

But it was extremely faint, like a flickering candle in the wind, capable of extinguishing and dissipating at any moment.

Simply put, she was dead, but not completely so.

Everyone present possessed skill and capability, with extremely sharp eyes. As they observed, exclamations and whispers rose one after another.

"This… her inner core is actually cracked!"

"Yes, as a Xuan Dan Realm Cultivator, the inner core is her foundation. After the inner core cracks, it will self-destruct. Before treating her, one must first find a way to help her repair the inner core."

"It's troublesome for her to repair her inner core herself while conscious, let alone for others to help her repair it in this state. It's incredibly difficult."

"Not only that, her Divine Soul is also severely damaged and is currently in an extremely weak state. If pills and heavenly materials and earthly treasures that nourish the Divine Soul are used rashly, not only will it fail to heal her, but it will also cause her weak Divine Soul to directly dissipate."

"If she hadn't been sealed with a Secret Technique, she wouldn't have survived for even the time it takes to drink a cup of tea."

"Although this Secret Technique is incredibly profound, it's not omnipotent. If she cannot be healed within a certain time, after the Secret Technique fails, the final outcome will still be death."

Everyone knew it would be very difficult before coming, otherwise Shangguan Zhuo wouldn't have visited numerous major cities and met many experts without anyone being able to heal her.

But they hadn't expected it to be this difficult.

Xu Qingzhou's strength was limited, he lacked knowledge, and couldn't heal illnesses. He was just standing at the front to observe the excitement.

Xu Luo, on the other hand, was carefully examining Lan Ying's condition, contemplating the method of treatment.
