Chapter 28 Rest in Peace (Second Update)

  "These are agility potions, these are strength potions, and this enhanced strength potion should not be used casually, you know the consequences of using it casually." Zhuge Mingyue took out many potions and distributed them to Wan Qi Chen and Xue Zihao, reminding them, "Also, this is a calming potion..."

  "Wait!" Wan Xi Chen's eyes widened, "Ming Yue, what did you say? This is a Ning Shen potion? Ah, Ming Yue, you can actually refine Ning Shen potions?" It's worth noting that the Ning Shen potion helps people stabilize their emotions and quickly adjust their mental state to its best. For summoners, it's an invaluable treasure. In critical moments, if a summoner's emotions and spirit are somewhat disordered, it will greatly affect the summoning. The Ning Shen potion is also useful for archers and swordsmen, as they need to concentrate their minds when releasing skills in the later stages.

  "How long can this agile medicine last?" Xue Zihao also excitedly pinched the medicine and asked urgently.

  Ling Feiyang was shocked by this scene, Zhuge Mingyue was actually still an alchemist?

  "You'll know if you try." Zhuge Mingyue said with a smile.

  Xue Zihao thought of drinking it all in one gulp, but then felt that it wasn't right. He anxiously spun around on the spot, and suddenly had an idea: "Let's go to Xunlong Mountain Range! We'll try our luck and gather some materials along the way."

  "Uh, I was thinking the same thing, but before that, let's go sell some medicine first. Making these medicines has almost depleted my funds." Zhuge Mingyue sighed inwardly, Alchemists really are a profession that burns money. The gap between input and output is too great, no wonder few people want to become alchemists. Because the success rate is just too low. However, her success rate was much higher, and her future prospects were bright. When would she finally get her hands on Lin Shao's 10,000 gold coins, only then could she feel at ease?

  " Sell? Sell out?" Wan Xi Chen and Xue Zi Hao jumped up like a wild cat whose tail had been stepped on, "You're going to sell such good medicine? No way!"

  "Just sell one or two bottles, it's precious because it's rare." Zhuge Mingyue looked at the two people holding their medicine babies in their arms speechlessly.

  "Alright, I'll just sell one bottle of Mind Soothing Potion and Agility Potion then." Xue Zi Hao compromised with a pained expression.

  Zhuge Mingyue's mouth twitched, was this medicine refined by her or them?

  "You all get ready and wait for me at the city gate, I'll go to the exchange. Also, Fatty, buy me a breakfast."

  "Alright!" Wan Xi Chen agreed in one breath, and carefully put away the precious medicine with Xue Zi Hao's treasure. He left the door happily.

  Zhuge Mingyue slung a backpack over her shoulder and headed out the door, with Ling Feiyang following behind her, watching her back with a thoughtful expression.

  Zhuge Mingyue sent a bottle of agility potion and a bottle of calming potion to the auction house, paid a small handling fee, and headed towards the city gate.

  "Zhuge, you're actually an alchemist!" Ling Feiyang caught up and spoke from beside him.

  "There are still many things you can't think of." Zhuge Mingyue replied lightly, and glanced at Ling Feiyang, "By the way, Young Master Ling, don't you have anything important to do? Just following me like this?"

  "As your guardian, of course I'll be by your side every step of the way." Ling Feiyang smiled slyly.

  Zhuge Mingyue quickened her pace and met up with Wan Qichen and Xue Zihao at the city gate.

  "Good morning, Mingyue. Your breakfast." Wan Qichen handed over an oiled paper package, and Zhuge Mingyue took it without hesitation and began to eat.

  "Let's go, into the mountain, this time to that place again to collect some herbs." Zhuge Mingyue said with a muffled voice while biting on her bun.

  ……

  In the exchange, the two bottles of medicine sold by Zhuge Mingyue were bought away. And afterwards, these two bottles of medicine she sold caused a huge stir, but that's what happened later.

  As soon as they entered the Dragon Mountain Range, Wan Xi Chen and Xue Zi Hao took out their agility potions and sped off in a flash, disappearing from sight in an instant. Ling Fei Yang slightly raised an eyebrow - agility potions were relatively precious medicines. The degree of preciousness depended on the duration of the medicine's effect, which was only over a minute for a finished product.

  "Zhuge, how long can the agility potion you brewed last?" Ling Feiyang finally asked.

  "Not very clear, let's ask them when they come back." Unexpectedly, Zhuge Mingyue wasn't too clear either. Because she hadn't personally experimented with it.

  After a while, the two finally returned, and Xue Zihao was still holding a fat wild rabbit in his hand.

  "Moonlight, you're too awesome! Three minutes, three points!" Xue Zihao excitedly ran over, "Actually having a three-minute effect!"

  Zhuge Mingyue's face turned pale, and he slapped his thigh, shouting: "It's all over!"

  Everyone was startled by her action: "What's wrong?"

  "I sold it too cheaply!" Zhuge Mingyue said with a heavy heart, "If I had known the time limit was so long, I should have sold it for a higher price."

  Ling Feiyang was already stunned and speechless, three minutes! The effect of the agility potion lasts for only three minutes, what level of alchemy has Zhuge Mingyue reached? What kind of person is she really? Is she still that unknown private daughter from before? A thread of doubt rose in Ling Feiyang's heart.

  "It's okay, it's okay, next time, sell it at a higher price." Wan Xichen and Xue Zihao comforted the painful Zhuge Mingyue.

  ……

  Wan Xi Chen and Xue Zi Hao tried the effects of the calming potion and strength potion again, and the two people were almost ecstatic. It's really cool!

  Ling Feiyang watched the two people's experiment all the way, his mouth twitching. Do these two know the value of these medicinal agents? Such waste.

  "Here you are." Zhuge Mingyue handed over several bottles of medicine to Ling Feiyang.

  "Give me?" Ling Feiyang was very surprised.

  "No? Then forget it." Zhuge Mingyue was about to take it back, but Ling Feiyang quickly snatched it away.

  "Don't waste it if you don't want to." Ling Feiyang carefully examined the medicine in his hand, finding that these medicines were all a deeper color than those he had seen before. The longer the efficacy, the deeper the color.

  "Let's go, run." Zhuge Mingyue took out a bottle of agility potion and drank it in one gulp. He pulled his legs up and sprinted forward at incredible speed. The electrifying feeling made his heart beat faster, and the scenery around him flew backward rapidly. Indeed, this was an escape artifact! Zhuge Mingyue thought to himself in awe.

  Ling Feiyang was stunned for a moment, and then used it like this? Such precious agility potion, used like this? Ling Feiyang looked at the several bottles of medicine in his hand, and without saying a word, drank another bottle of agility potion and chased after him.

  After a few minutes, Zhuge Mingyue let out a long sigh and looked at Ling Feiyang who was catching up: "This medicine is not bad, it's just that I'm a bit tired after running."

  Ling Feiyang had just stopped when he saw Wan Zichen take out a bottle of medicine, gulp it down, and let out two loud whoops. With a loud crash, he punched a nearby large tree. The tree shook violently, and the wild fruit fell off like rain, pattering loudly to the ground. Zhuge Mingyue covered her head to avoid being hit by the falling fruit and burst out laughing.

  "This fruit is delicious, try some next month." Xue Zihao picked up the fruit from the ground.

  Wan Xi Chen exclaimed excitedly: "Awesome, I feel like my whole body is filled with power."

  Zhuge Mingyue squatted down to pick up the wild fruit on the ground, took out a handkerchief, wiped it clean, and stuffed it into her mouth. A sweet and refreshing flavor filled her mouth, and Zhuge Mingyue closed her eyes contentedly. When she turned her head, however, she saw Ling Feiyang still standing in place.

  "What?" Zhuge Mingyue asked vaguely, biting into a fruit.

  "Medicines, don't you think they're being wasted?" Ling Feiyang looked at Wan Qi Chen and the others' actions with some incredulity.

  "Waste? I don't think it's a waste to let them use it. Besides, there are some things that don't need to be taken so seriously. People, sometimes just living happily and freely is enough, no need to worry too much. They're excited now because they've never used it like this before. Later on, they definitely won't use it like this." Zhuge Mingyue picked up another fruit and tossed it to Ling Feiyang, "Try it, the taste isn't bad."

  Ling Feiyang took the wild fruit, looking at Wan Qi Chen and Xue Zihao's excited smiling faces, then looked at Zhuge Mingyue who was smiling at the two of them. For some reason, Ling Feiyang felt a twinge of envy in his heart as he saw how carefree Zhuge Mingyue was with them.

  They played and walked all the way until noon but still hadn't reached their destination. However, now Zhuge Mingyue was hungry.

  "I want to eat meat!" Zhuge Mingyue plopped herself down on her butt and refused to budge.

  "Wait a minute." Wan Xi Chen hurried over and took away the rabbit that Xue Zi Hao had been carrying.

  "Please wait a moment, I'll go find some firewood right away." Xue Zihao said and then hopped off to find the firewood. Meanwhile, Wan Qichen skillfully skinned the rabbit, removed its internal organs, and then rinsed it with clean water. Afterwards, he took out a large pile of seasonings from his backpack.

  Soon, the fire was lit and the meat was roasted. Wan Xi Chen's craftsmanship always made people admire, smelling the fragrant aroma of the roasted meat, Zhuge Mingyue's eyes shone brightly as she stared at the crispy golden rabbit meat.

  "The hind legs are mine, dare to rob me, kill without pardon!" Zhuge Mingyue said with extreme ferocity.

  Wan Xi Chen and Xue Zi Hao exchanged a smile, both shaking their heads in exasperation. Every time it was mealtime, Zhuge Mingyue transformed into a hungry wolf.

  Ling Fei Yang stared blankly at Zhuge Mingyue's elegant movements, and then her not-so-elegant appetite. Two large rabbit hind legs, she actually ate them without leaving a single bite behind.

  "What are you staring at? You're not eating, give me the one in your hand." Zhuge Mingyue said viciously to Ling Feiyang who was dazed.

  Ling Feiyang silently lowered his head and quickly took a few bites of the rabbit meat in his hand.

  After eating and drinking, several people set off again. Along the way, they encountered some not-so-ferocious beasts, Xue Zihao and Wan Qichen cooperated very tacitly. Ling Feiyang was also very responsible, guarding her when Zhuge Mingyue summoned her magic pet.

  When Zhuge Mingyue summoned the Wind Leopard, Xue Zixiao and Wan Qichen were shocked.

  "Moonlight, you've really become a high-ranking summoner? That's not right, it's only been a few days!" Wan Xi Chen jumped up and down beside him, both envious and jealous.

  "Man compares man, and is killed by comparison. Fatty, rest in peace." Xue Zihao stretched out his hand and wiped it over Wan Qi Chen's eyes.

  "Rest in peace, my ass! I'm not dead yet!" Wan Xi Chen blew his top.

  "Oh, I thought you were dead, so I helped close your eyes for you." Xue Zihao stifled a laugh.

  "You're looking for death!" Wan Xi Chen chased after Xue Zi Hao and hit him.

  Zhuge Mingyue stroked Feng's head, giggling as she watched the two treasures perform.

  "Thanks a lot." Zhuge Mingyue suddenly turned her head and said to Ling Feiyang.

  Ling Feiyang was somewhat taken aback.

  "Thanks for protecting me when I was reciting the incantation." Zhuge Mingyue explained.

  "Ah……” Ling Feiyang felt a pang of loss in his heart as he listened to Zhuge Mingyue's words. Looking at the three people in front of him, Ling Feiyang felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort rising up within him. These three people were a unit, and he was excluded from it.

  They walked and stopped, finally arriving at the small valley they had found earlier. However, when they climbed in, Zhuge Mingyue's face turned ugly, because in that small valley, they discovered that Xue Zihao's transplanted flowers were all pulled up, and Luo Xiao's body was gone!

  "Mingyue, this is..." Wan Qi Chen and Xue Zi Hao simultaneously looked towards Zhuge Mingyue, both of their hearts rising with a bad premonition.
