What?
Wen Yan was stunned. His astonished eyes then turned towards Gu Ruoyun.
If I'm not mistaken, Maternal Grandfather had said that this young lady can refine pills? It seems that she is far more complicated than I had imagined.
The delicate-looking youth who had been following closely behind the old man also stared at Gu Ruoyun in astonishment. His clear eyes were filled with a curious light.
"Haha."
Suddenly, the old man laughed heartily and stared at Gu Ruoyun with admiration in his eyes, "Truly, a young hero is born! I've never admired any young person. Even those who are known as peerless geniuses in the Northern Block Territory are not worth mentioning in my eyes! You, on the other hand, are the person I admire the most in my life! My grandson's talents aren't bad either. Unfortunately, he's still a far cry from you. "
The old man was not stingy with his praise. He had even severely belittled his own grandson.
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun could not help but glance at the delicate-looking youth. However, she only took one look before turning her gaze away.
However, that one look was enough to make the youth blush. He lowered his head shyly and did not dare to look at Gu Ruoyun again.
This young lady is truly beautiful. I've never seen such a beautiful woman before. Most importantly, based on my grandfather's tone, it seems that she is very powerful.
After all, I've never seen my grandfather use such a praising tone to speak to any genius since he was young.
"You flatter me."
Gu Ruoyun joined her fists and her eyes flickered, "I've heard from the Governor that one of his elders has some problems with his body so he needs the Dragon Blood Fruit to treat it. May I ask if that elder is a senior?"
"Haha, it's actually not a big problem. It's just that I've once been injured which has caused my powers to stagnate. You should understand that as long as one hasn't become a god, there's a limit to a person's lifespan. He was worried that I would reach the end of my lifespan one day so he had painstakingly searched for this Dragon Blood Fruit. However, I'm more open-minded about these things. As long as I can nurture my grandson into a talented person, I can leave in peace."
The old man waved his hand and smiled as he spoke.
One could tell from his face that he really does not care about these things.
However, the filial piety of a junior still touched him greatly.
"The medicinal effects of the Dragon Blood Fruit are extremely strong. You can indeed take the risk but there's no guarantee that you'll succeed. So..." Gu Ruoyun's eyes darted back and forth before she said, "May I try?"
If she could use this method to obtain the Dragon Blood Fruit, then she wouldn't have to use other methods to snatch it!
After all, she has an extremely good impression of both Wen Yan and this easygoing old man. Naturally, she would not want to snatch them away from their hands! However, in her heart, Xia Linyu was more important. If she had no other choice, she wouldn't mind playing the villain for once.
However, that was when there was no other way!
But now, it was obvious that it was not the last resort yet!
However, what Gu Ruoyun did not know was that this old man was not as easygoing as she had described him to be. He did not put on airs in front of Gu Ruoyun because of her talent and abilities! If it was someone else, they would have a completely different expression.
"Lady Gu, do you have any other ideas?"
Wen Yan's eyes lit up and a sense of hope appeared on his gentle features.
If this had happened in the past, he might not have believed Gu Ruoyun's words.
However, when he found out that this woman could refine pills, a flame of hope was ignited in his heart.
