My father also has

What can twenty years of lifespan be exchanged for?

It could be exchanged for a massive amount of Spirit Stone, for immense power, or even for several, or perhaps dozens of, Chenyang City.

As the matriarch of the Qin Family, Mother Qin certainly knew the value of this kind of Medicinal Pill.

"Son, this Medicinal Pill is too precious; you shouldn't have given it to Mother to consume."

"Although this is a sixth-grade Medicinal Pill and hasn't reached the high-level seventh-grade elixir, it is a Medicinal Pill that increases lifespan, so it cannot be judged solely by its grade."

"Sometimes, this kind of Medicinal Pill is even more precious than a perfect stage seventh-grade elixir or a perfect stage eighth-grade elixir; it is too wasteful to let Mother consume it," Mother Qin chided.

In terms of value, this Medicinal Pill even surpassed the Beauty-Preserving Pill.

A single perfect stage sixth-grade Life-Extending Pill could even recruit an aged Martial Emperor to serve the Family for ten years.

A Medicinal Pill that can make a Martial Emperor pledge their service has immeasurable value.

Qin Ming waved his hand and said, "Mother, as an Alchemist, I naturally know the preciousness of this Medicinal Pill. But no matter how precious a Medicinal Pill is, how can it compare to Mother's health?"

"As long as Mother lives well, we, as your children, will have more motivation."

"Let alone that this is just a perfect stage sixth-grade Life-Extending Pill, even if it were a perfect stage seventh-grade Life-Extending Pill, or even an eighth-grade or ninth-grade one, I would give it to Mother to consume without the slightest hesitation."

Upon hearing this, tears suddenly streamed down Mother Qin's face.

"Minger, my good Minger."

"Mother, why are you crying?" Seeing his mother suddenly weeping, Qin Ming immediately panicked. He had never seen his mother cry before; even when the Family encountered the greatest crises, she had never shed a tear.

In his past life, when the entire Qin Family was slaughtered and his mother desperately covered his escape, she had not cried.

After a while, under Qin Ming's comforting, Mother Qin finally stopped weeping.

"Minger, you gave such a precious Medicinal Pill to Mother, but what about Father? Father needs this Life-Extending Pill even more than Mother. You shouldn't have given it to me to consume; you should have given it to your father. He has been working tirelessly for the Family all these years."

"Especially with this matter regarding the Shen Family, Father has almost worried himself white-haired."

Qin Ming took out another Medicinal Pill from his space ring and said, "Mother, you can rest assured; not only for you, but I have also prepared one for Father."

"If it weren't for the fact that this kind of Medicinal Pill can only be consumed once and has no effect the second time, I would certainly have found more."

Mother Qin took the Medicinal Pill Qin Ming handed over and said repeatedly, "Minger, you must not do anything more for Father and Mother; these Medicinal Pills must be very hard to obtain!"

"Mother only hopes that you can be safe and sound; I do not want you to take any great risks."

Qin Father had always instructed Mother Qin never to ask about Qin Ming's secrets.

Asking about Qin Ming's secrets would not only fail to help him, but would only distract him in vain. If he could really tell them, Qin Ming would tell them himself.

For the sake of Qin Ming, Qin Father and Mother Qin were meticulous and caring.

"Rest assured, Mother, I always put my own life first; I would never take risks," Qin Ming said nonchalantly.

This was actually the truth; the spirit plants used to refine these Medicinal Pills were all obtained by other Martial Artists who risked their lives in the Secret Realm, while he only spent a little time refining them into Medicinal Pills.

"Then I am relieved." Mother Qin put the Medicinal Pill away and said, "Minger, you must be hungry now; I will go cook for you."

"That sounds great." Qin Ming said happily, "Mother, I haven't eaten the food you've cooked for three years; I don't know how much I've missed it."

Mother Qin did not inquire about the origin of the Medicinal Pill, which made Qin Ming heave a sigh of relief.

He did not want to lie to his mother, yet he could not let her worry, so he really did not know what lie to tell.
