C99

There were two people sitting in the study room of the Shangguan Residence in the Northern Chi County. A bald old man was looking at another refined middle-aged man. Seeing the two's faces, he seemed to be in an argument.

"Dun'er, just do as Mu Er says. Let him test the medicine for that Three Striped Divine Pill." The bald old man was Shangguan Li.

"Daddy, this is not a joke! It's not like you do not know that the effects of the God's Pill are completely different. If it's really harmful, then the consequences would be unimaginable! " Shangguan Dun's face was tense as he spoke hastily.

Hearing that, Shangguan Li slapped the table with his big hand. Instantly, the mahogany table shattered into pieces and he said furiously, "This little brat Yang has saved my Shangguan family! Could it be that he had to take so much into consideration for the sake of trying a pill? If Mu Er couldn't fulfill this wish, she would be depressed and regret it for the rest of her life! "Why are you even more pedantic than an old man like me!"

"Father, what should we do if Mu Er dies after testing the medicine?" He is your biological grandson! " Seeing that Shangguan Li was angered, Shangguan Sheng relaxed his tone. "Brother Yang, since you've helped my Shangguan family, I will repay your kindness, but there's no need for Mu to test the effects of that godly pill!"

"That's right. It's precisely because Mu Er is my grandson that I supported him doing this." Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Li turned around and no longer looked at his son. He said softly, "Mu Er is already an adult, a man should have some responsibility. Don't you understand what it is that is important to you as a pharmacist?"

Shangguan Li was stunned at these words. Of course, he knew that the most precious thing to a pharmacist was the pills he'd concocted himself. That was their dignity and honor.

Mu Er already has a knot in her heart. If he is not allowed to test the medicinal herb for the 'Three-Line Divine Pill', it would really be difficult for him to succeed in the future. Before he could say anything, Shangguan Li turned around abruptly. He stared at Shangguan Tun who looked a little hesitant and said solemnly, "If you were Mu Er, what would you choose?"

"Father, I ?" He wanted to speak up but was cut off by Shangguan Li with a wave of his hand.

"That's all I can say. If you agree, then prepare to let Mu Er test the medicine tonight." Shangguan Li turned and left, but he didn't turn back to look at Shangguan Dun.

Shangguan Li's words had indeed touched Shangguan Sheng greatly. If Shangguan Mu had truly made up his mind, and if he hadn't agreed, he wouldn't have been able to test the medicine. However, his inner demons had been born, and he would have died in despair for the rest of his life.

The test was not certain if there would be a problem. As Shangguan Mu's father, he was naturally concerned about it. Even if there was a problem, the Shangguan family's medical expertise allowed them to cure it easily.

"If it were me, I would probably make the same choice as Mu Er." After murmuring in a low voice, Shangguan Sheng's face no longer showed any hesitation. He suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Someone, come!" "Immediately instruct the elders to gather here tonight and have Mu Er prepare the medicine for the trial!"

"..."

That night, all the Shangguan Family Elders, the Shangguan Family head of the Shangguan Family, Shangguan Mu and Shangguan Li gathered in the medicine room with serious expressions on their faces.

"Mu Er, if you go back on your word, it's still too late. After consuming this divine pill, you can go back on your word ?" Pointing at the jade box on the wooden platform, Shangguan Lu asked with a deep voice.

"Father, there is no need for words. Mu Er's wish is also to be able to test the divine pill that you refined." Shangguan Mu answered with a calm face without a trace of nervousness.

"Since that's the case, let's prepare to begin." Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Sheng turned around slightly and gave the order to all the other elders.

One could not joke about life when testing a medicine. Even if the one testing medicine today was not Shangguan Mu, the Shangguan family had to be prepared for it.

The Shangguan Family Elders had been summoned to the house in order to respond to any sudden situation, and there were also many top-grade pills made by the Shangguan Family stored in the house.

"Mu Er, sit on the wooden bed." He waved his hand to call Shangguan Mu. After he sat cross-legged on the bed, he took out the 'Three-Striped Gold Pill' from the jade box and said: "Take this, and carefully feel its effect on your body. If you feel anything wrong, immediately say it out, all the elders and I will save you."

Staring at the pill that seemed to have a layer of flowing gold on its surface, Shangguan Mu didn't hesitate. With a soft 'En', he took the divine pill and swallowed it.

Everyone in the room looked worriedly at Shangguan Mu. The elders were also prepared to save him at any time, so Shangguan Li was naturally the one with the most relaxed expression.

Even though Shangguan Mu would grieve if something happened to him, he had no regrets like Shangguan Mu. He was also rather proud and gratified that his grandson was still alive.

It was quiet in the room. The only sounds that could be heard were the soft breathing of the crowd and Shangguan Mu's increasingly heavy breathing. Looking at Shangguan Mu's tranquil face, a trace of pain began to show on his face.

After all, the divine pill contained a huge amount of energy, which would turn into energy and attack the body from all directions after being consumed. The pain was inevitable, especially with this kind of body strengthening pill, so he could not give the order to stop the test.

"Dun'er, don't worry. Mu Er will be able to survive." A pair of large hands patted Shangguan Dun's shoulder, Shangguan Li's firm voice came from behind.

He turned to look at Shangguan Li, who nodded but didn't say anything. He then turned to look at Shangguan Mu.

Time passed minute after minute, and it had been more and more time since the last cup of tea had been brewed. Shangguan Mu's facial muscles twitched more and more, and beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down his cheeks. His brows were tightly knitted, but he still gritted his teeth without uttering a single word.

He could faintly feel that his fists were covered with thick sweat. Even though Shangguan Sheng was burning with anxiety, he still waited for Shangguan Mu to speak.

"Patriarch, Mu Er, this ?" An elder at the side asked softly. His eyes were filled with worry.

"No rush. Do you feel the temperature in the medicine room suddenly rise a lot? The closer you are to Mu Er, the hotter it becomes." He waved his hand, and without using his spiritual sense, he could see with his naked eyes that the air around Shangguan Mu had become distorted due to the extreme heat.

Naturally, everyone could feel it as well. The silk shirts they wore were already soaked through, and the temperature in the medicine room also rose sharply. Shangguan Mu's clothes had been burned to ashes, revealing his sturdy scarlet muscles.

"Could it be that this medicine contains the power of fire?" I am afraid even I cannot withstand such a high temperature. However, how can a person who has cultivated the power of wood continue to absorb the power of fire? " The temperature rose rapidly, which was difficult for the crowd to bear. At the suggestion of Shangguan Sheng, they quickly set up a few bans to protect themselves from the scorching heat. Only then did they feel a little cooler.

Just as everyone in the medicine room was concerned about Shangguan Mu's situation, they suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the medicine room.

"Patriarch, Patriarch!" Mr. Yang Chou, he, he moved! "
