1619 Bertha, This Is How Much I Trust You! (1)
Hong Tians.h.i.+ wasn’t the only one in shock. Even w.a.n.g Teng was shocked by the drastic change in Old Han.
Is the Thousand Gra.s.s Elixir this powerful?
Suddenly, he regretted gifting the other nine Thousand Gra.s.s Elixirs away. He should have left some for himself in case he needed them in the future.
Fortunately, the pill wasn’t hard to make; he could make it again in the future.
“Hahaha…” Han Ping burst out laughing when he saw their reactions. He was evidently happy.
He experienced a transformation after consuming the pill.
His body used to give off a sense of heaviness and decay; however, that feeling was gone. He felt completely at ease, as if having gotten rid of a heavy burden.
Rebirth!
To Han Ping, this was his rebirth!
Hong Tians.h.i.+ turned and asked the young hero, “w.a.n.g Teng, do you know how amazing your pill is?”
“I don’t know.” w.a.n.g Teng shrugged. “I only knew it had good effects, but I didn’t know it was this great.”
Everyone: …
Can you be a little more reliable?
Han Ping walked towards the hero and sincerely said, “w.a.n.g Teng, thank you! I would have been six feet under already if it wasn’t for you.”
“Old Han, you don’t have to be so polite with me.” w.a.n.g Teng smiled.
“You’re right. I’m being too sentimental. All right, let’s leave it at that; I’ll remember your favor in my heart,” Han Ping replied.
The hero smiled. He didn’t offer help because he wanted a favor in return, so he didn’t take the senior’s words to heart.
“Your cultivation advanced, too,” w.a.n.g Teng exclaimed.
“I’ve made it to the celestial stage!” The senior smiled.
“What? The celestial stage!” Hong Tians.h.i.+ and the others stared at their friend in disbelief. They wondered if they had misheard.
“All of my injuries were completely healed after consuming the pill. Of course this would spur my breakthrough. It’s only natural.” Han Ping was all smiles, clenching his fist as he felt the immense energy coursing his body.
“Can this pill help with breakthroughs as well?” Wu Xingyun was surprised.
w.a.n.g Teng shook his head and explained, “Not really. Old Han had the acc.u.mulation but there were too many unhealed problems blocking his full potential. He would have advanced a long time ago if not for this problem.”
“I see.” Wu Xingyun and the others were in deep thought.
“I didn’t think you would be the first to reach the celestial stage,” Hong Tians.h.i.+ lamented. He felt a little envious.
After all, they had the same starting line but his colleague had already taken that step.
Not even Wu Xingyun had broken through.
“Hahaha, you can only be jealous.” Han Ping smiled.
“Stop showing off!” Yong Lianggong pouted.
Long Changkong couldn’t help but ask, “w.a.n.g Teng, do you have more pills?”
“I have six more,” the lad replied.
He had refined sixteen pills in total. He still kept six after giving nine to his fellow grandmasters and one to Old Han.
“Six? Can you give us one each?” Hong Tians.h.i.+’s eyes lit up. He quickly added “You can make any request.”
All of them witnessed Han Ping’s change. The pill was too important for them.
All of them had acc.u.mulated a certain number of injuries over the years. They just weren’t as bad as Han Ping’s.
If they could consume the pill and clear all the hidden issues, their cultivation could take a huge leap.
“Here you go.” w.a.n.g Teng smiled. He took out four pills and continued, “I’ve made many pills. I wanted to check their effect before handing them to you.”
Hong Tians.h.i.+ exchanged glances with the others but didn’t move to take the pills. He said, “We understand their value, so we can’t take them for free. However, there’s nothing we can do to help you now, so we can only repay you in the future.”
“Why are you suddenly so polite? I’m not used to it.” The hero was smiling. “You can pay me back in the future if you wish. I’m not in a rush.”
He knew they would feel bad if he didn’t agree.
Wu Xingyun, Hong Tians.h.i.+, and the others heaved sighs of relief and took the pills.
The young hero said, “Please send these two pills back to Earth for my grandfather.” He then gave two extra pills to Wu Xingyun.
“Okay. Don’t worry; I’ll have someone take care of this.” The senior.
“I have nothing else to say. I’m sure you’re excited to try the effects of the pills, so I won’t keep you any longer,” said the hero, still smiling.
“Hahaha. Indeed, we’re excited. Han Ping’s change is too great,” said Hong Tians.h.i.+.
Then, they said their goodbyes and left w.a.n.g Teng alone.
The latter contacted Lin Chuhan in the evening, knowing she would return two days later. Hence, he planned to meet her first before heading to the Seventh Stellar Academy.
He pondered some things for a while and asked Round Ball to contact Bertha and ask her to look for him.
Bertha was the behind-the-scenes person he appointed as manager of his fiefdom, in cooperation with his round helper. Since his fiefdom had grown, he needed to make new arrangements.
A few minutes later, a rune Force flying car landed in the manor.
