"Long Chen, are you alright now?" Jiang Huixin spoke up to ease the awkwardness.
"Looks like he's fine now."
Before Long Chen could answer, Yu Xiaoyun retorted irritably, "Of course it's fine, otherwise how could he hold his daughter?"
After Yu Xiaoyun said this, Yu Qingxuan's face turned even redder. Jiang Huixin glared at him. This guy had been talking about it all the time before, so why had he suddenly changed now?
"Long Chen, logically, you just woke up and should need to rest, but now really isn't the time to rest." Jiang Huixin said.
Long Chen nodded and said, "I understand. My headache is terrible right now. Let me rest for a while, then I'll leave." Although
Long Chen didn't hear Ye Wusheng's words, he knew that using the bronze ancient cauldron would probably bring real trouble.
Even if only the people of the Vermilion Bird Empire saw it, the number of powerful warriors there was far more than billions. Who can guarantee there are no traitors among them?
No matter how much the Vermilion Bird Empire blocked the news, it wouldn't matter; it wouldn't be long before the news would spread.
After all, the commotion this time was too large. The surrounding experts would surely come to gather information, and the shattered scene above the void would cause a huge sensation. This place truly could not be held for long.
After waking up, Long Chen began to recover his body. What comforted him was that his physical body was perfectly intact, and even when facing ordinary Earth Venerable experts, he felt no fear.
His soul was severely depleted, his head was splitting with pain. Even worse than his head was his left eye. Although Bai Xiaole's mother had given him an eye mask to help relieve the pain, it still felt like a needle-stabbing pain.
Moreover, this pain is a kind of swelling and pain, recurring and tugging at the soul, making it extremely uncomfortable.
Hearing Long Chen say this, Yu Qingxuan was filled with heartache. She knew Long Chen well; he was someone who never complained about pain. Since he said it hurt badly, it must be more painful than she had imagined.
Previously, Long Chen acted as if nothing was wrong, just for her sake, afraid she might worry or upset.
Yu Qingxuan hurriedly pushed aside a pill and handed it to Long Chen. When he saw the pill, Long Chen was startled:
"A supreme Golden Pill?"
Golden patterns shimmered on the pill, moving back and forth on its surface. The surging medicinal power was firmly locked within the pill, with not a trace leaking out.
Immortal Realm pills are divided into three tiers: Spirit Pill, Treasure Pill, and Golden Pill. Each type is further divided into low, medium, high, supreme, and supreme grades.
The Golden Core was the highest quality pill Long Chen had ever encountered. He had refined Golden Pills before, but only one or two could be produced in a hundred furnaces.
As for supreme pills, let alone Golden Pills, even treasure pills and spirit pill-level Long Chen have never been refined.
A so-called supreme grade is the only one in the world; there will never be two identical supreme pills.
Usually, once a supreme pill appears, there will never be a second one unless that pill is consumed and disappears from this world.
There was also an even more domineering method: there was originally a supreme pill in the world, but someone refined the same supreme pill and, after undergoing the baptism of heavenly tribulation, was recognized by the Heavenly Dao.
Thus, the same supreme-grade pill withers and eventually disappears, leaving only one supreme pill left in the world.
Therefore, a supreme pill is usually the greatest honor in a cultivator's life. By chance, Yu Qingxuan refined a supreme pill, which caused a sensation throughout the alchemy cultivation world. This was the first time in tens of thousands of years that someone had refined a supreme pill.
"This is a Soul-Nourishing and Calming Pill. It can just heal your injuries. You bad person, why didn't you say so earlier?" Yu Qingxuan said with a hint of reproach.
Long Chen endured everything, pretending nothing was wrong. If Long Chen had said it from the start, she would have done it already.
Seeing Yu Qingxuan's reproachful expression, Long Chen felt a warmth in his heart and, without being pretentious, put the pill into his mouth.
"Buzz"—
As the pill entered his mouth and instantly dissolved, a strange orb of light appeared above Long Chen's head.
As soon as that orb appeared, the endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth was absorbed and poured into Long Chen's body.
"A supreme golden pill, which can serve as a medicinal guide for heaven and earth. The rumors are true." Long Chen couldn't help but sigh.
The efficacy of a supreme divine pill is not limited to pills; its medicinal power can draw upon the essence of heaven and earth. To exaggerate a bit, heaven and earth are a medicine, a universal medicine.
The supreme Golden Pill, besides its powerful medicinal effects, can also draw upon the essence of heaven and earth. Combined with the power of the pill, it can unleash effects beyond imagination.
Long Chen was seriously injured this time, especially the wounds to his soul and eyes, which were the hardest to heal. Even the power of the chaotic space could only be slowly cultivated, and it would take some time to recover.
But after taking Yu Qingxuan's supreme Golden Pill, Long Chen's previously burning eyes instantly cooled and the pain quickly stopped.
The splitting headache almost disappeared instantly, truly a cure as a cure. Long Chen instantly felt refreshed.
Removing the blindfold and opening the left eye, Yu Xiaoyun and the others' expressions changed. In Long Chen's left eye, the hellflower had not disappeared. When they saw the pattern of the hellflower pattern, they felt their souls tremble.
"Still not working. My eyes still hurt a bit, and I can't open them open. But don't worry, I think with another three to five days of resting, I'll be fine." Long Chen himself felt very uncomfortable in his left eye; when he opened it, it would sting and tears would flow, so he put the eye mask back on.
A supreme Golden Core can instantly heal his soul's wounds, but it still has certain limitations for his Purgatory Eye. It seems that the power of heaven and earth is not omnipotent.
Afraid Yu Qingxuan would be disappointed, Long Chen quickly smiled and said,
"A supreme Golden Core is truly remarkable. If it were before, I wouldn't have recovered without a year or more. Qingxuan, you're truly amazing."
Yu Qingxuan had indeed felt a bit disappointed. She thought this supreme Golden Core could instantly cure Long Chen, but Long Chen's final praise made her very happy.
Jiang Huixin saw everything clearly, a faint smile on her lips. She turned to look at Yu Xiaoyun's gloomy face and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Compared to Long Chen, Yu Xiaoyun really didn't know how to win people over.
The banquet was already set. When Long Chen and the others arrived, everyone stood up in respect, looking at Long Chen with eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
At first, Long Chen came to the Vermilion Bird Empire to propose to Yu Qingxuan, and countless people were angry, thinking Long Chen was a toad trying to eat swan meat.
But after this great battle, Long Chen's bravery and fearlessness, along with his determination to protect Yu Qingxuan to the death, completely won them over. Bravery, fearlessness, and loyalty are what true heroes are.
At the main table, only Yu Xiaoyun, Jiang Huixin, Xu Lanxin, Long Chen, and Yu Qingxuan were present. Everyone knew that this banquet was more focused on family gatherings, less solemn and more warm.
Guo Ran and the others were also seated around the main table. This time, Long Chen wasn't stingy and directly took out his long-treasured Bloodfire Sorghum Wine.
The moment he took out the Bloodfire Sorghum Wine, Yu Xiaoyun's eyes instantly widened.
