It's Effective
Yaowang wanted to increase his strength and break through the armband, but this potion was too mysterious. There was a chance of death, and so he'd rather not try it. His meridians weren't severed, and it wasn't worth the risk.
Elder Zhao, naturally, knew what Yaowang was thinking. He couldn't tell what the potion was, so he hesitated. After a while, his eyes brightened, and he turned to Zhu Boss!
"Zhu Boss, you asked for this potion to help your brother recover, right?" Elder Zhao asked.
"Yes," Zhu Boss answered honestly.
"Alright, if that's the case, then let him use it!" Old Zhao's face didn't change. "Normally, such an important potion should be given to the family, one for Elder Bi and the other for safekeeping. But since you're the one who found it, I can't disappoint my men, so I'll give you one back. Give it to him as soon as possible!"
"I …" Zhu Boss's face changed, turning red! He had expected this, and everything was going according to Yushu's plan. But hearing Elder Zhao say this shamelessly, Zhu Boss was still furious!
The two brothers had been working for the hidden Zhao family all these years. Even if they didn't have any merits, they had still worked hard. However, not only did Old Master Zhao let the second brother Zhu test the medicine, he also shamelessly said that the two medicines would belong to the family, and he even gave one to the eldest brother Zhu!
Could it be that if the potion didn't have side effects, Elder Zhao wouldn't even give him one? With that thought, Zhu Boss felt sorrowful. It seemed like joining Lin Yi was too smart. Serving these two Zhaos wouldn't end well! Even a dog should have dignity!
"What, Zhu Boss? You don't want to? If you don't want to, I'll just find a random disciple of House Zhao and let him use it. But then, Zhu Boss won't get a share! "Elder Zhao saw that Zhu Boss wasn't willing, so he threatened.
It wasn't that he didn't want to find a disciple to try, but there were only two potions, and after trying one, who would he give the other one to? Should he give it to Elder Zhu or Elder Bi? Logically speaking, it should be given to the second Zhu, since he was the one who asked for it, and he didn't keep it for himself. He reported it to the family first, but for the family's benefit, Elder Bi breaking through was more beneficial.
And so Old Zhao had no choice but to let the second Zhu be the test subject. Yushu had already set up their psychology, and everything was going according to plan.
"I … am willing!" Boss Zhu took a deep breath and nodded: "Originally, I asked for this potion for my second brother so that he could recover his meridians. Since he is already like this, it's better to let him have a try with the mentality of success or death instead of wasting his time like this!"
"Well, it's good that you think that way." Old Man Zhao nodded in satisfaction and said, "Boss Zhu, why don't you invite your brother over?"
"Okay, I'll bring him over now!" Boss Zhu nodded and said quickly.
"Elder Mian, bring Elder Bi here too!" Old Zhao turned to Elder Mian.
"Yes, Head!" Elder Mian quickly nodded, but he felt a little sour inside. These days, because of Elder Bi's injury, he had replaced Elder Bi's position in the family, becoming one of the closest people to Old Zhao. If Elder Bi came back, what would he do? He didn't want to lose the position that he had worked so hard to get!
But, he couldn't go against Old Zhao's wishes. He could only invite Elder Bi over! But as soon as he left, he thought it through. Yes, Elder Bi had recovered, but he would also break through to Sky class. At that time, would Sky class still be able to serve Old Zhao like before?
Clearly, it was impossible. Since he had reached Heaven Stage, he would definitely want to continue cultivating. Even Old Man Zhao would not let him do these menial chores. When the time came, these matters would still fall onto Old Mian's shoulders!
Thinking about this, Elder Mian was happy.
Soon, the second Zhu and Elder Bi came. Both of them came in wheelchairs. Although the second Zhu could walk, he didn't want to. Everyone understood that, going from a practitioner to a cripple, anyone would be depressed.
Elder Bi was even more so. Although he had woken up, his eyes were sunken. He looked like someone who hadn't rested for many days. His face was yellow and skinny, and he didn't have any energy.
But, when he heard that there was medicine that could help him recover, his eyes shone with a strange light!
Although Second Brother Zhu was a little happy, he "knew" that he was a tester, so his eyes still flashed with nervousness and worry from time to time. These subtle expressions were also noticed by Grandpa Zhao. Although he didn't suspect anything, he felt more relieved after seeing these subtle expressions.
"Second Brother Zhu, the medicine is here. This is the medicine your brother painstakingly obtained. I hope you won't waste it!" As Grandfather Zhao spoke, he had Elder Mian pass one of the bowls of medicine to Second Brother Zhu.
Second Brother Zhu took a deep breath and took the bowl with a "determined" look in his eyes. Then, he raised the bowl and drank all the potion in one gulp …
"Ughhhhh …" The second Zhu's hand suddenly shook, and the bowl fell to the ground, shattering. His face turned red! Although he was prepared for this, and knew that the medicine he drank would be fine, the pain still made him take a deep breath …
The second Zhu's pained expression fell into everyone's eyes. Everyone had different expressions. The eldest Zhu was very 'worried', but Old Zhao, Yao Wang, Elder Mian, and Elder Bi were looking forward to it!
The second Zhu was in pain, but they knew that repairing his meridians would be painful, and breaking through the barrier would be difficult. This was normal. As long as he didn't die, and could hold on, then it was half a success.
Soon, white steam came out of the second Zhu's head, and his face became twisted. He panted heavily, and the 'huff huff huff' didn't stop. It was as painful as one could imagine.
