C841 Father's Love Is like a Mountain
Father's love is like a mountain.
Just as she said, Lai Yao simply did not believe that Guu Feng could refine the Grade Four Essence Returning Pill.
Although Guu Feng had solved the problem of Lai Yao's alchemy in the Medicine Pill class, it was because she had fallen into a blind spot at that time. She had neglected the element of the medicinal herbs that countered each other. It was purely within the scope of theory and was far from being able to concoct the Medicine Pill in actual practice.
"As a father, no matter what happens tomorrow, I will not let my son suffer." Guu Yue said with a determined look.
"Brother Yue, I will accompany you." Lai Yao's tender little hand and Guu Yue's thick big hand clasped together.
The next day, the promised one-month deadline had arrived.
In the main hall of the Guu family, Patriarch Guu, Guu Hao, the Great Elder of the Guu family, Guu Ju, the Second Elder of the Guu family, Gu Tong, the Fourth Elder of the Guu family, Guu Ming, Guu Yue, and many other families had gathered.
The only thing that was missing was the main character, Guu Feng.
Guu Hao saw that the entire hall was filled with people except for Guu Feng, so he asked Guu Yue, "Guu Yue, where is Guu Feng?"
Guu Yue hesitated for a moment and replied, "Feng... will be here soon!"
"He will be there soon. Really?" The Great Elder Guu Ju did not hold back his malicious words.
"In this month, no one in the family has seen Guu Feng. Could it be that he knew that he could not refine ten Grade Four Essence Returning Pill, so he ran away with a few scrolls of medicinal herbs?"
"Big Brother, you can't slander others!" Guu Yue's tone refuted passionately," Feng has been in seclusion all this time. It's normal that no one saw him. "
"Humph, it is normal that no one saw him?" Guu Ju's face was cold and his words were sarcastic.
"What you're saying is as if he's in closed door cultivation. Just based on a piece of trash like him who can't even cultivate Yuan energy?"
"Big brother, you're Feng's uncle after all. Even if you don't like Feng, you shouldn't have said such malicious words to him, right?" Guu Yue was impassioned.
Patriarch Guu Hao saw that the two core members of the family had stirred up some conflicts, so he waved his hand, signaling them to stop. Then he stared at Guu Yue with a sharp gaze and asked, "Guu Yue, where is Guu Feng? Will he come?"
"This... this..."
Guu Yue was at a loss for words. When he did not know what to say, a clear voice sounded.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
It was Guu Feng.
Guu Feng walked into the hall and greeted him for his late arrival. "I'm sorry, patriarch. I'm late."
Guu Yue's frown eased when he saw Guu Feng. He laughed and said, "It's good that you're here."
To Guu Yue, the most important thing was that Guu Feng kept his promise. As for whether he had refined the Grade Four Essence Returning Pill or not, it was not that important.
On the other side, Guu Yue was extremely happy. On the other side, the disgust in Guu Ju's heart had already surfaced to his brows. However, he immediately became indifferent. So what if Guu Feng came? Didn't that mean that he couldn't refine the Essence Returning Pill?
Thinking of this, Guu Ju's expression became arrogant, and he was happy in his heart. He was waiting for the people of his family to denounce Guu Yue and Guu Feng.
When Guu Hao saw Guu Feng, he went straight to the point and asked, "Guu Feng, ten Grade Four Essence Returning Pills, have you refined them?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the hall focused their attention on Guu Feng. Guu Yue was extremely anxious and nervous.
After five breaths of time, Guu Feng still stood there indifferently without moving.
The anxious Guu Fei couldn't bear to watch any longer. He stepped forward and shouted:
"Guu Feng, tell me, did you sell the Green Yellow Root, Purple Blood Fruit, and Demon Emperor Grass? One should know that the family spent a lot of money to get them."1
When they saw someone taking the lead, the others in the hall echoed him.
"I think so too. How can a trash like him refine Essence Returning Pill?"
"A genius alchemist. What a great reputation. Only a useless young master who's used to wandering in brothels can treat him as indifferent, right?"
"That's right. Other people are just following the trend and bragging a bit, but he actually took it seriously and still dares to be so arrogant!"
Guu Feng's gaze swept across these people who insulted and ridiculed him one by one.
Take a look, this was the reality!
The weak would have no bottom line of respect and obedience towards the strong, and towards those who were even more powerless, they would look down on and look down on them unconditionally. They would feel that they were still superior.
Guu Feng, oh Guu Feng, you have to remember this. This is a truth that will never change no matter which world it is in.
Everyone in the main hall's criticism made Guu Ju realize that it was time for him to speak his true request.
"Guu Feng, did you not refine the Essence Returning Pill? Back then, you confidently said that you would definitely be able to refine a ___. Because of this, the clan had basically helped you purchase medicinal ingredients. But now, you have gained nothing.
My Guu family's family has a large business. Initially, it would not be a big deal to raise one or two useless people. However, my Guu family will never tolerate cheating my family. The traitor who caused our family to suffer a great loss will not get lost now. When are you going to wait? "
Upon hearing this, Guu Yue took a step forward and stood in front of Guu Feng to protect him. "Feng, if you leave now, dad will accompany you!"
Originally, Guu Feng wanted to remember the attitude of these people who thought they were noble and had eyes but failed to see, but when he heard Guu Yue's promise of fatherly love, he did not hide it at all. He felt the greatness of fatherly love, and his eyes were slightly moist. He did not want to let his father down again.
"Dad, I have said that if I don't cry, it will be over. If I cry, it must be shocking."
Guu Feng first sincerely said this to Guu Yue, then he turned to Guu Ju and said coldly.
"Uncle, I should at least call you uncle. You want to chase me out of the Guu family just like that? Unfortunately, I am destined to disappoint you!"
After saying that, Guu Feng took out ten Grade Four Essence Returning Pill.
Everyone looked over and saw that the medicinal fragrance of the ___ had caused them to feel dizzy, causing them to be dumbstruck, and the entire surroundings went silent for a moment.
"Essence Returning Pill, is that really an Essence Returning Pill? A Grade Four Essence Returning Pill?"
"Just looking at that pill dizziness, it must be a Grade Four Essence Returning Pill!"
"Heavens, this Guu Feng actually really refined a Grade Four Essence Returning Pill?"
"Could it be that this Guu Feng really is a pill refining genius, not boasting?"
While everyone was exclaiming in astonishment, Guu Feng passed the ten Grade Four Essence Returning Pills to Guu Yue, and asked him to pass it to Patriarch Guu Hao.
When Guu Yue turned around and returned, Guu Feng could clearly see the tears on his face.
"Dad, how could you be happier than when you produced a ___!" Guu Feng looked at Guu Yue and felt sour in his heart.
He knew that Guu Yue was the number one genius in the family. No matter which time he broke through, he would break through faster than his peers or even his seniors. He had entered the realm of the strong before him, but he had never shed a single tear of joy.
However, because of this unfilial son of his, he actually cried after refining a Grade Four Essence Returning Pill that could be produced by any random tier 4 Pill Master according to the agreement. Sigh! Thinking of this, Guu Yue's eyes became wet.
On the other side, Guu Feng and Guu Yue were crying. On the other side, Guu Ju was totally disappointed and questioned coldly.
"Humph, Guu Feng only took out ten Grade Four Essence Returning Pill, but that doesn't mean that these ten Grade Four Essence Returning Pills were refined by him?"
