‘All I had done in those thousand years was missing her every second of every minute.

  ‘Currently, I’m already satisfied in being able to stay by her side. It will at least be way better than those thousand years of living in solitary…’


  Mu Ru Yue raised her gaze slightly and said with a resolute gaze, “Bai Ze, I will surely treat your injuries.”


  ‘I currently have the ability to refine Heaven Stage Mid Rank Pill. But I am lacking the main medicinal plant ingredient, Green Jade Root. Hence, my hands are tied.

  ‘Fortunately, I can make use of the Alchemy Competition to refine the Heaven Stage Mid Rank Pill…


  ‘I originally didn’t plan on revealing all of my might in the last round. However, I have no choice but to do that for Bai Ze’s injuries…’


  Mu Ru Yue lowered her gave as a glint of light flashed past her eyes.

  All of the disciples that had passed the previous two rounds of competition had already gathered at the competition ground. Yet, only Mu Ru Yue came late.

  Perhaps it was the shock from the previous two rounds of competition that the crowd no longer looked down on Mu Ru Yue as they looked at her expectantly instead.

  They were curious as to how much more shock she could bring to them…


  “Let’s begin the final round of competition since all of the competitors have assembled!”


  Chuan Gu swept a cold gaze at the crowd, pausing his gaze slightly on Mu Ru Yue. He then instructed, “You will need to prepare your own medicinal plants to refine a pill that you are specialized in making. The competition shall…”


  “Wait!”


  A voice interrupted Chuan Gu before he could finish his piece.

  Mu Ru Yue smiled faintly as she requested, “I am still lacking a Green Jade Root for the ingredients of my pill. I’m afraid I won’t be able to continue refining the pill without the Green Jade Root.”


  Chuan Gu’s expression turned cold. “That’s your own problem!”


  Mu Ru Yue smirked upon hearing his reply as she said, “What if I am confident in becoming the champion in this competition? Won’t someone be able to take advantage of this situation if I were to drop out from the competition?”


  She had purposely said those words for Su Ning. She would then be able to make the Alchemy Sect find the Green Jade Root for her.

  As expected, Su Ning instantly jumped up to her feet upon hearing that and said, “Mu Ru Yue, you are really too brazen. Isn’t it just a Green Jade Root? I have it here. I want to see how you can become the champion with it!”


  Mu Ru Yue was related.

  ‘This Eastern Island is abundant in resources. The Green Jade Root that I had been searching for ages is in Su Ning’s possession.’


  Su Ning snorted coldly as she raised her hand to take out a Green Jade Root before throwing it toward Mu Ru Yue’s hand.

  “Take it!” She raised her chin and said haughtily, “Don’t you think of using such an excuse to cower from the competition! I definitely won’t give you the chance. You won in the previous two rounds by luck. I will prove that by not losing to you in this round!”


  Su Ning wasn’t bragging as she indeed had that confidence.

  ‘I’m currently only twenty-six-year-old but has already reached the Mundane Stage High Rank, a step away from entering the Heaven Stage. The Alchemy Sect will definitely focus the most on me over the other disciples due to my outstanding innate talent.

  ‘Mu Ru Yue had just coincidentally stepped on some dog sheet luck, becoming the champion in the previous two rounds. But this third round of competition will test their true ability. She is definitely inferior to me!’


  Mu Ru Yue smilingly caught the Green Jade Root.

  ‘With this Green Jade Root, I can refine a Heaven Stage Mid Rank Heaven Return Pill…’


  Bang!

  A pill furnace appeared before Su Ning after she raised her hand.

  Swish!

  An intense flame suddenly blazed from her palm. Following that, she placed different medicinal plants before her…


  It was undeniable that Su Ning, who was usually haughty and arrogant, would become exceptionally serious once she entered the state of refining pills. She no longer looked at Mu Ru Yue…


  Simultaneously, the rest of the competitors took out their pill furnace…
