Chapter 1614: Chapter 103: Making a Fortune! Shou Ye Grand Slam_4

As he spoke, he began instructing Shou Ye, telling him where everything was placed and which Dan medicine bottles contained the valuable items.

In just a matter of moments, Shou Ye had accumulated several items in his hands. Apart from one deep purple gourd, the rest were jade bottles filled with Dan medicine.

Indeed, as a rare Alchemy Grandmaster, True Monarch Profound Pill naturally carried more Dan medicine than anything else.

“This purple-skinned gourd is called the ‘Blue Flame Gourd.’ Inside is a Rank Six Spiritual Fire, Kunwu Blue Flame, which not only assists in alchemy and increases the success rate, but also serves as both offense and defense. It can even be used for flight, making it a highly cost-effective Dao-level item,” True Monarch Profound Pill explained.

“Blue Flame Gourd?” Shou Ye’s eyes lit up. “This is the renowned Dao-level item of the senior—no, Master—Blue Flame Gourd?”

True Monarch Profound Pill was once unparalleled in his era, with a life trajectory full of legend. His wife even ended up becoming the Immortal Emperor. An inspiring figure for sure, Shou Ye had long heard of him. Naturally, he was familiar with the famed Blue Flame Gourd.

In fact, the love story between True Monarch Profound Pill and Immortal Emperor Guangming had been retold through countless versions among the populace. Shou Ye had already heard at least five different versions.

When he started learning alchemy in his early teens, his teacher often used stories of True Monarch Profound Pill to inspire him.

Yet, at that time, he wouldn’t have even dreamed that this Blue Flame Gourd would one day be passed down to him.

“Master, rest assured, I will make good use of it and will never tarnish your reputation.” Shou Ye solemnly held the Blue Flame Gourd, his tone filled with sincere conviction.

True Monarch Profound Pill smiled lightly: “You’re reliable in your actions, sincere in dealing with others, and not even the temptation of the Demonic Cauldron could shake you. Naturally, I have no reason to worry about you. The remaining Dan medicines should be worth about one to two million Immortal Crystals. Whether you decide to sell or keep them, do as you see fit.”

Pausing here, he lamented: “It’s a shame that when I left the Immortal Dynasty, I already resolved myself to die, leaving most of my wealth behind. I only brought along a few personal belongings—a Dao-level item and a Reborn Immortal Pill. The rest isn’t worth much. Don’t think it too little.”

Shou Ye didn’t speak for a long time.

After several breaths passed, he finally managed to say, “Master, Reborn Immortal Pills are now worth two to three million Immortal Crystals each.”

“…Is that so?” True Monarch Profound Pill’s tone carried a hint of surprise.

After all these years in the ruins, much of his time was spent asleep. He had little sense of the passage of time.

But suddenly, it dawned on him just how long twenty thousand years truly were. Long enough for vast changes in lands and seas, for prices to evolve with history, and for Muyue to have long been gone…

Seeing True Monarch Profound Pill’s somber mood, Shou Ye suddenly said, “Master, let me return your remains to the Immortal Dynasty. Ever since your disappearance, Immortal Emperor Guangming has searched for you her entire life. As your disciple, it is only proper for me to ensure your soul returns to its homeland.”

“Additionally, the cause of your sudden disappearance was always subject to speculation. Now that the truth is clear, it is only right to inform the Imperial Household and restore your name.”

“Good disciple, you are thoughtful.” True Monarch Profound Pill returned to his senses. “However, the Yun family belongs to the Imperial Household. Even if you go to the Immortal Dynasty, seeking an audience with prominent figures may involve some hurdles… Oh, right, there is a Dragon-Phoenix Pendant on my lapel, gifted by the Immortal Emperor on the day of my marriage with Muyue. I’ve kept it with me all this time. If you go to the Immortal Dynasty, use it as a token of proof.”

“Understood. I will take care of everything.” Shou Ye nodded firmly. “Once everything is settled, I will take you back to the Immortal Dynasty.”

Aside from the remains of True Monarch Profound Pill, the Hidden Space contained nothing else. While speaking, Shou Ye had already stored the thin coffin into his Storage Ring, strolling out of the Hidden Space and then out of the Heritage Hall.

Outside the Heritage Hall, Master Danding had been waiting for days without seeing anyone emerge. Instead, he had taken his disciples to help Shou Ye organize the medicinal herbs in the herb garden. At the moment, they were busy at work.

But the herb garden was indeed vast, with an overwhelming number of Spiritual Medicines. Even after all this time, they had only managed to examine a small section.

Still, despite this, their faces were full of joy.

“Junior Brother Shou Ye, you’ve come out at last~” Qian Fugui, noticing Shou Ye walking out, quickly called him over, cheerfully congratulating him, “I knew Junior Brother would definitely succeed! That Ji Ling Xiao talked so big, but in the end, she could only slink away~”

Clearly, he didn’t know what had been discovered in the Heritage Hall, thinking Ji Ling Xiao had simply lost and left.

“Senior Brother, it wasn’t wrong for her to want to compete for the Codex in the first place,” Shou Ye, who had a decent impression of Ji Ling Xiao, couldn’t help but defend her.

“Alright, alright~~ I get it, you’re soft-hearted toward ladies. Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Come quickly and see what treasures we’ve found!” Qian Fugui happily dragged Shou Ye to the edge of the herb garden and pointed to a spot for him to look.

Master Danding and the others were also standing nearby, their faces glowing with excitement.

Following Qian Fugui’s gestures, Shou Ye looked over and saw beneath the lush grass leaves a small white lotus about the size of a palm. Its petals were rounded and smooth, its entire surface gleaming white as though it were carved from Bai Yu itself.
