Previously, Guang Jie only wanted to tease Lan Xiaobu; her personality had always been good. Now that she heard Lan Xiaobu say that she really had many problems during her pill concoction, she immediately asked, "Big Brother Lan, do you really understand the Pill Dao?"
Lan Xiaobu nodded, "I understand a little. The first problem with your pill concoction was that the purification method of the immortal herbs was wrong. When you were purifying the immortal herbs, the pill technique you used was a little messy. When the medicinal liquid and dregs were separated, the pill technique was too rushed, and it was mixed with some useless pill techniques. Remember, to purify the immortal herbs, you need to move the dregs slowly and set the fire quickly. The pill technique is as follows … "
Guang Jie's talent in the Pill Dao was already very strong; after hearing Lan Xiaobu's words, many of her problems suddenly became clear. Her master had never explained in such detail; there were many things that her master didn't seem to understand.
After Lan Xiaobu finished speaking, Guang Jie couldn't help but ask some questions that she didn't understand normally. Lan Xiaobu answered them all easily.
"Big Brother Lan, you're a Tier 4 Pill Grandmaster?" Guang Jie looked at Lan Xiaobu in shock; her master was a Tier 3 Pill Grandmaster, but her master definitely wasn't as impressive as Lan Xiaobu.
Lan Xiaobu laughed, "No."
Guang Jie heaved a sigh of relief; that was more like it. She took out another cauldron of Vitality Recovery Pills and started to concoct them. Indeed, it was much easier this time. Lan Xiaobu gave a few pointers along the way, and when the 12 pills were pulled out of the cauldron by Guang Jie, she was stunned.
Special grade recovery pills? Since when did she concoct special grade immortal pills? Not only did this batch of pills have five special grade immortal pills, the rest were all high grade immortal pills; there weren't any intermediate grade or low grade immortal pills.
"Oh my god, I concocted special grade recovery pills. Could it be that I'm already a Tier 3 Pill Grandmaster?" Guang Jie couldn't help but cry out in excitement.
Lan Xiaobu said, "Your foundation in the Pill Dao is not bad, and your talent in understanding the Pill Dao is also very good. Actually, you can already concoct Tier 3 immortal pills. Why don't you start concocting Tier 3 immortal pills now, and I'll teach you how to concoct them. "
"I don't have any Tier 3 immortal herbs." Guang Jie said regretfully. If she knew that there was such a formidable pill refiner in her family, she would have done everything in her power to get more Tier 3 immortal herbs.
Lan Xiaobu took out a storage ring and handed it to Guang Jie, "There's a pill furnace and some Tier 3 immortal herbs inside. Refine the pill furnace and concoct Tier 3 immortal pills."
Guang Jie subconsciously took the ring and scanned it with her spiritual will. She then said excitedly, "Big Brother Lan, is this a middle-grade immortal pill furnace?"
Lan Xiaobu said, "Yes, this Pill Furnace is for you."
"Thank you, Big Brother Lan. I will definitely concoct a Tier 3 immortal pill and strive to get into the top ten." Guang Jie's confidence immediately rose.
A middle-grade immortal pill furnace was very expensive. Many of the core disciples in the sect might not even have one.
…
By the time Lan Xiaobu returned to the Forbidden Immortal Department, it was already the second day. He was delayed by Guang Jie and wasted another day.
"Big Brother Xiao Bu, you're back." Zhong Yi saw that Lan Xiaobu had returned and immediately welcomed him excitedly. Lan Xiaobu wasn't around, so he could only help Lan Xiaobu with some simple records. Even if he did this job for tens of thousands of years, it would still be difficult for him to get promoted.
The only way to get promoted in the Forbidden Immortal Department was to gain credit. Where did credit come from? Naturally, it was to handle cases.
"Immortal Cao Guang Zhuang and Jian Xuanming didn't come back?" Lan Xiaobu felt that the Forbidden Immortal Department was very quiet. There were only a few immortal Cao rushing in and out.
Zhong Yi said softly, "Big Brother Xiao Bu, the case at Wumu City Square doesn't seem simple. Not only did Immortal Cao Guang and Jian Xuanming not come back, the rest of the immortal Cao didn't come back either. A few of them even perished. "
"Then what about Immortal Cao Gongliang?" Lan Xiaobu wanted to go to Wumu City Square to take a look. However, he needed the approval of a Tier 3 immortal Cao.
"Immortal Cao Gongliang also went to Wumu City Square. There's also no news from him. The Forbidden Immortal Department has requested help from the higher-ups. Wumu City Square seems a little strange, "Zhong Yi said.
Lan Xiaobu nodded, "I understand. I'll go and patrol the prison first."
Lan Xiaobu decided to discuss with Ju Xiuruo, then go and undergo his tribulation to advance to the Xuan Immortal Stage. Then, he would go to the Bai Duan Clan to find Shangguan Qian. After doing all these, he would go to Wumu City Square to investigate the situation.
Before entering the prison, Lan Xiaobu placed the imprint that Bian Yufeng left on him back on his body. Previously, he had removed this imprint to investigate the case. Now that he was in the prison, he naturally had to place it back on. Otherwise, Bian Yufeng would know that he had discovered the imprint.
…
When Lan Xiaobu discovered that she had a flame, Ju Xiuruo's heart sunk to the bottom of the valley. But in the next few months, no one came to find her. She knew that Lan Xiaobu didn't report her matter to the higher-ups. This made her heave a sigh of relief.
During this period of time, she had been waiting for Lan Xiaobu to come here. But after a few months, she still didn't see Lan Xiaobu.
Just as Ju Xiuruo was thinking whether she should escape, she saw Lan Xiaobu walking over.
What made her curious was that Lan Xiaobu looked at every cell for a while before walking over.
"Kid, you're here again," Seeing Lan Xiaobu walk to his cell, Bian Yufeng's heart sunk.
He had left a message in his imprint. As long as his accomplices found Lan Xiaobu's imprint, they would definitely be able to cooperate with him.
However, Lan Xiaobu's imprint was still there. It had been a few months, but his accomplices didn't send him any news. Did this mean that he had been abandoned?
Lan Xiaobu pretended to wander around Bian Yufeng's cell for a while before walking to the next cell. By the time Lan Xiaobu walked to Ju Xiuruo's cell, half a day had already passed.
"Lan Xiaobu, many thanks," The moment Ju Xiuruo arrived outside Ju Xiuruo's cell, she transmitted a message to him.
To be able to transmit a message, it was clear that the shackles on her spiritual essence bone had been broken. Lan Xiaobu used his spiritual will to scan the shackles. Indeed, the shackles were broken.
"There's no need to thank me. I wasn't in charge of your case anyway. I want to ask, you have a flame. Will you give me the materials for the nirvana flame? "Lan Xiaobu stood at the door of Ju Xiuruo's cell and transmitted a message.
Ju Xiuruo replied, "My flame has already undergone nirvana. As long as you promise to help me reverse the verdict and allow me to leave, I will immediately tell you the location of the treasure for the nirvana flame."
Lan Xiaobu immediately knew that Ju Xiuruo didn't burn the shackles because she wanted to escape. She should know how powerful the Forbidden Immortals Department was and that it would be hard for her to escape. She broke the shackles because she wanted to protect herself at any time.
"Tell me about your case." Lan Xiaobu asked straightforwardly. He didn't have much time. If he could solve it, then he would help. If he couldn't, then he could only focus on his own matters.
Ju Xiuruo was very straightforward, "I killed Yang Buqing. He committed adultery with my sister-in-law, Shi Yan, and killed my brother, Ju Chengsang. When I investigated the cause of my brother's death, I found out that my parents were both killed by this bastard. I'm not sure why he approached me, but he definitely didn't approach me because he wanted to become my dao companion … "
After Lan Xiaobu heard Ju Xiuruo's words, he knew that the Forbidden Immortals Department didn't blindly record it. The records were all true. At the very least, Yang Buqing and Shi Yan were both killed by Ju Xiuruo.
"If it's true that you also killed three immortal city guards, then I won't be able to help you. Because even if your case was closed, you wouldn't be able to leave this place, "Lan Xiaobu said.
Ju Xiuruo was startled, but she immediately said with certainty, "I've never killed an immortal guard. I know this. If I killed an immortal guard, then I wouldn't have cooperated with you. How could the Forbidden Immortals Department randomly record such things? "
After saying this, Ju Xiuruo went into a daze. Then, she muttered to herself, "I understand."
Following which, she transmitted a message to Lan Xiaobu, "You don't have to reopen my case. Because Yang Buqing's words are true. Back when I wanted to kill him, he transmitted a message to me. He said that he was King Jing's illegitimate son, and I even mocked him. From the looks of it, he might really be King Jing's illegitimate son. Otherwise, he wouldn't have tampered with the records of the Forbidden Immortals Department. I have to leave now. King Jing didn't look for me, so he must have forgotten something. They will be here soon. "
Lan Xiaobu didn't want to care about this mess. Thus, he transmitted a message, "Now that the Forbidden Immortals Department's defenses are loose, the experts have all gone out to do things. You can't leave today. You have to leave tomorrow. There's a defensive immortal array outside. If you want to leave, you have to go to the Kan position. That's where the array flag is. Then, take the first seven steps to the right and take three steps to the Zhen position … "
Lan Xiaobu had already seen through the defensive array of this prison cell. Thus, he directly told Ju Xiuruo how to leave the array. He was worried that Ju Xiuruo didn't know where the right side was, so he explained it to her using his spiritual will.
Ju Xiuruo stared blankly at Lan Xiaobu. She could leave the Forbidden Immortals Department's immortal array just like that? It was rumoured that the Forbidden Immortals Department's immortal array was used to trap Immortal Kings.
However, she knew that she didn't have any other choice. If Lan Xiaobu was lying to her, she could only accept it. Moreover, Lan Xiaobu didn't seem to have any reason to lie to her. If he wanted her dead, all he had to do was report it.
At the thought of this, Ju Xiuruo immediately transmitted a message to Lan Xiaobu, "There's an abandoned pill room in Wumu City Square. It's sealed by a restriction array. There's a level-4 concealment restriction in the pill room. Below the restriction is a void transfer array. You need a transfer array token to enter this transfer array. The array token is on my chest. I'll give it to you …"
"Wait …" Lan Xiaobu hurriedly called out to Ju Xiuruo. If Ju Xiuruo gave the array token to him so openly, he would definitely be implicated after she left.
At this moment, Lan Xiaobu didn't care about anything else. His spiritual will directly landed on Ju Xiuruo's chest. Feeling Lan Xiaobu's spiritual will land on her body, Ju Xiuruo's entire body immediately tensed up. She even felt something swimming around her chest. Her face instantly turned red.
However, she understood Lan Xiaobu's actions. This wasn't just to protect her, it was also to protect Lan Xiaobu. Who knows how many surveillance arrays there were in this prison cell.
It's really huge. Lan Xiaobu forcefully pushed his thoughts aside. Then, he started trying to inscribe some concealment array runes on the outside of the array token.
Only when Ju Xiuruo felt a slight emptiness in her chest did she realise that the array token on her chest had disappeared. She actually didn't know how Lan Xiaobu took the array token away.
