Miss Loser is too enchanting

After finishing, Dugu Qianye flashed into the Refining Demon Pot. When she entered, Grandpa Youwu had already been cleaned by Mo Chi and the others. Due to his severe external injuries, they had only covered him with a sheet and had not dressed him.

As soon as Dugu Qianye entered, Dudu appeared and took her to Youwu’s room. Dugu Qianye went in and saw that Mo Chi and the others were all present, but everyone was silent, the room laden with sorrow and anger. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Qianye..." Seeing Dugu Qianye, Mo Chi called out, but could not utter anything else.

"I will heal Grandpa Youwu," Dugu Qianye said. "Not only that, I will also deliver a big gift to the Divine Temple. Uncles, please leave. I will take care of this."

Mo Chi and the others left the room, but did not go far, waiting outside. Youwu had always had a good relationship with Mo Zhenting and often visited the Mo Family. Almost all of them had grown up under his watch, and the relationship had always been close. Now that he had been so gravely injured by the Divine Temple, they did not want to leave until they witnessed his recovery.

Inside the room, Dugu Qianye came to the bedside and looked at the emaciated old man on the bed, nearly shedding tears. Though she had not spent much time with Youwu, that period was precious to her. Youwu treated her like his own granddaughter, giving her the most valuable Refining Manual of an Artifact Refiner and even precious birthday gifts. Even from afar, he still thought of her.

"Grandpa Youwu, I will definitely heal you," Dugu Qianye affirmed. "I will also make the Divine Temple regret how they treated you!"

Dugu Qianye had Dudu prepare a bath tub, throwing many herbs into the water, which quickly turned black and emitted a pungent smell. She had Mo Chi come in and help move Youwu into the tub, supporting him so his head wouldn’t sink into the water.

She then followed Dudu to the Alchemy Room, which Dudu and the Phantom Beast inside had prepared for her. After entering, she did not have time to observe the decorations, instead, she listed a bunch of herbs to Dudu, which Dudu procured without leaving, just by thinking of them.

"Dudu, I also need a petal of Tianhua," said Dugu Qianye.

Ever since being brought by Dugu Qianye, the Tianhua had never been used because of its demanding growing conditions. Dudu had specially created a separate small space to cultivate it, unknown to others except Dudu.

"Okay," replied Dudu. Soon, the Tianhua, dripping with water droplets, appeared among the herbs.

Dugu Qianye looked at the Tianhua, still so beautifully blue. She did not dare to guarantee success on her first attempt at using Tianhua, hence she had Dudu prepare an entire petal, in case she needed to continue after a failure.

She took out the medicine stove and ignited a flame underneath. A small flame that grew much larger once under the stove, heating the entire bottom of it. Waiting for the stove to preheat, she started to add the herbs one by one for refinement, a lengthy process that allowed no margin for error. When it was time to add the Tianhua, she did not put it directly into the stove, but used a smaller medicine stove instead. Due to incorrectly gauging the time and temperature, the Tianhua turned to ash. Fortunately, she had not mixed it with the other herbs, or she would have ruined them and had to start all over again.

After two more attempts, she finally succeeded on the fourth try. She merged the refined Tianhua with the other herbs, carefully blending them. Finally, she infused it with Phantom Power, solidifying the pill successfully.

Looking at the crystal blue Elixir in her hand, Dugu Qianye breathed a sigh of relief. When she had first examined Youwu’s injuries, she noticed that many of his bones were shattered, and without Tianhua, she would have had no confidence in completely healing him.

After cleaning up the medicine stove, she returned to Youwu’s room to find the water in the bath tub clear. She administered an Elixir to Youwu, and soon he began to vomit large quantities of black blood.

"This..." Watching Youwu vomit blood, nearly turning the water in the tub black again, Mo Chi looked anxiously at Dugu Qianye.

"All this is the poisonous blood within Grandpa Youwu’s body. His internal organs have suffered, bleeding severely. If it’s not expelled, there will be lasting after-effects," Dugu Qianye explained. "The medicinal bath just now was to enhance his body’s ability to endure, so there’s no need to worry."

Soon, Youwu stopped vomiting blood, and Dugu Qianye had Dudu change the bucket of water, letting Mo Chi clean Youwu’s body before placing him on the bed. She took out the Elixir she had just refined and fed it to Youwu, watching him swallow it before she could finally let her heart settle with a heavy sigh of relief.

"Uncle, I need to rush back to Holy Sea City tonight and can’t wait for Grandpa Youwu to wake up. Take care of him here, and after 24 hours, give him another Elixir," Dugu Qianye handed the Jade Bottle to Mo Chi.

"Don’t worry. How are things outside? If there’s any danger, call us out. Don’t let it be like last time," Mo Chi said.

"I understand," Dugu Qianye nodded to show she took his words to heart, then went out to inform the others before flashing out of the Refining Demon Pot.

Since time inside the Refining Demon Pot flowed differently from the outside, Dugu Qianye, who had spent a few hours inside, emerged to find only a few minutes had passed in the outside world. Jiang Yu hadn’t finished preparing.

"Just ten more minutes," Jiang Yu said to Dugu Qianye. Ten minutes later, a spitting image of Dugu Qianye appeared before them.

After Jiang Yu finished, Dugu Qianye left the doppelganger on Wuyou Island and departed with Jiang Yu on Lan Mei’s back. As they left the island, Xiao San and Xiao Si seemed to notice something but, seeing everyone in their rooms, went back to rest.

Due to the urgency of time, Dugu Qianye urged Lan Mei to go all out; the trip that previously took hours was completed in just half an hour.

Sitting side by side on Lan Mei’s back, Dugu Qianye and Jiang Yu were side by side. Jiang Yu, sitting next to his own master Dugu Qianye, felt a wave of emotion. He had never expected to share a seat with a woman, let alone his master.

The word ’master’ reminded him of the fiery face of Jiang Yu. Born from the same stone, once he had acknowledged his master, Jiang Yu could not escape either.

Yet this woman, she had shown him her uniqueness, making him willing to work with her, to do her bidding. But...

"What are you planning to do once you get there?" Jiang Yu asked.

"I haven’t figured that part out yet. At any rate, we can’t let the Divine Temple brainwash them. If push comes to shove, we’ll just destroy those two pillars and wreak havoc on the Divine Temple’s lair," Dugu Qianye replied, not regarding those two pillars as the most sacred objects of the Divine Temple.

Jiang Yu, watching the diminutive figure speak so domineeringly, momentarily felt his blood stir with boldness.

"I can extract the Yellowstone Fiend from the pillars, or I can just protect them from its influence," Jiang Yu offered. "Which method would you prefer?"

"If we extract the Yellowstone Fiend, will the people from the Divine Temple notice?" Dugu Qianye inquired.
