Dandy Pill God-Chapter 648: Agree to the Request
Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Agree to the Request
Upon hearing Zhu Fei’s subtly sarcastic remark, Long Mengdie showed not the slightest annoyance.
She just smiled slightly and directly took out a Jade Bottle from her person, placing it in front of Zhu Fei.
"Zhu Fei, the pills within this Jade Bottle should fully recover your injuries, and with your current Physical Body Cultivation, facing mere mortals shouldn’t pose much of a problem for you, right?"
What seemed like an offhand comment from Long Mengdie made Zhu Fei’s pupils involuntarily contract upon hearing it.
Particularly, her latter statement, an assessment of his Physical Body Cultivation, naturally triggered an intense wariness in Zhu Fei’s heart.
He simply couldn’t fathom who Long Mengdie was? Her behavior was so enigmatic.
In this Vacuum Domain, she not only had Healing Pills on her but could also discern his Physical Body Cultivation at a glance — this was not something that an average Cultivator could do.
With this in mind, Zhu Fei didn’t reach for the Jade Bottle, instead fixing his gaze intently on Long Mengdie and asking in a grave voice,
"Long, who exactly are you? Have we met before?"
Zhu Fei’s question was not merely to probe into Long Mengdie’s background and identity but was rather because she had indeed felt somewhat familiar to him earlier.
Now, he was simply using this opportunity to express the doubts in his mind directly.
Long Mengdie did not respond to Zhu Fei’s question, just a gentle smile hung on her face, neither confirming nor denying.
But in the depths of her eyes, there was a flash of imperceptible strangeness that flickered for an instant.
Zhu Fei failed to catch that fleeting peculiarity in Long Mengdie; seeing her silence, he mistook it as her unwillingness to answer his questions and couldn’t help but frown slightly.
"Long, if you’re asking for my help, shouldn’t you at least give me a reason or explanation?"
By saying this, Zhu Fei had in effect indirectly agreed to Long Mengdie’s request.
Firstly, he truly needed Long Mengdie’s Healing Pills to recover from his current injuries as swiftly as possible.
After all, in this unfamiliar Vacuum Domain, Zhu Fei had to ensure his strength was at its peak as danger could descend upon him at any moment.
And from what he could see of his immediate surroundings, it seemed unlikely that he would find anything better for healing than what Long Mengdie had offered, so he must strive to obtain these Healing Pills.
Secondly, it was because of Avana’s personal aid to him, Zhu Fei, in the past.
Zhu Fei was a man of clear debts and grudges; as long as he was able, if Avana’s tribe really faced danger, it would be impossible for him to stand idly by.
Hearing Zhu Fei’s question again, Long Mengdie finally nodded with a smile and replied, "That’s possible."
After a slight pause, Long Mengdie continued, "When I first arrived in this Vacuum Domain, my situation was almost identical to yours. I too had received the kindness of the Maple Tribe. Later, I promised them that I would ensure their tribe’s absolute safety for three years."
"Now, there is just over half a year left in that period, and during this time, I have extremely important matters to attend to, which is why I have sought your help."
Upon hearing her words, a cold smile appeared on Zhu Fei’s face, and he couldn’t help but quip,
"Long, unless I’m mistaken, today should be the first time we’re meeting, right? Do you really trust me that much? Aren’t you afraid I’ll just take your Healing Pills and leave?"
Long Mengdie shook her head seriously, her gaze seeming to penetrate a person’s inner thoughts, she affirmed,
"There’s nothing to fear, because I know you absolutely would not do such a thing."
Zhu Fei was suddenly choked up, unable to grasp how this woman thought. Why did she have such confidence in him?
However, at this moment, Zhu Fei clearly had no mind to ponder these issues any further but paused before directly asking:
"Long, may I ask one more thing? Is the task you are departing to accomplish related to leaving the Vacuum Domain?"
Long Mengdie nodded, not hiding anything from Zhu Fei, and similarly spoke directly, "Indeed, it is related to that matter. However, there are some circumstances that I still need to verify..." ƒгeewёbnovel.com
As she spoke, Long Mengdie’s eyes, which held a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, seemed to unintentionally sweep across Zhu Fei’s face before she continued:
"If my verification is successful and I truly find a way to leave this Vacuum Domain, as repayment, when I bring you back, I will also share this method with you. What do you think about that, Zhu Fei?"
"Good! It’s a deal!"
Upon hearing Long Mengdie’s final words, Zhu Fei finally hesitated no longer and immediately nodded in complete agreement.
Whether what Long Mengdie had just said was true or false did not matter; such terms posed no disadvantage to him, Zhu Fei.
Moreover, Zhu Fei’s intuition also told him that Long Mengdie held no malice toward him.
Most importantly, given Zhu Fei’s current circumstances, aside from temporarily staying in the Maple Tribe, he had no better place to go. Staying in the Maple Tribe to recover from his injuries was also his best option at the moment.
Seeing that Zhu Fei had finally agreed, Long Mengdie smiled and nodded again, adding:
"Very well, then. I will make the situation clear to the tribe’s Chieftain. Your temporary protection of the Maple Tribe’s safety is entrusted to you."
Having said that, Long Mengdie no longer lingered, greeted Zhu Fei, and then went straight out.
...
In the days that followed, Zhu Fei lived in the Maple Tribe according to the agreement he had made with Long Mengdie.
Perhaps because Long Mengdie had given special instructions, in the days that followed, aside from Avana, no one else came to his tent.
Every day, Zhu Fei would practice, attempting to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy to recover his cultivation, when not tending to his own injuries.
It must be said that the Healing Pills Long Mengdie had left him were very good, being Seventh-grade spiritual medicine and considered an exceptional healing elixir.
However, because Zhu Fei’s cultivation was sealed and he was unable to draw on surrounding Spiritual Energy to nourish himself, his consumption and absorption of the spiritual medicine had become extremely slow.
He could only take a little bit of it each day.
After all, he could not activate Mana to fully unfold the medicinal power of the Pill, so he had to rely on his Peak of Xuan Body’s Physical Body Cultivation to forcibly withstand the potent medicinal power of the Pill.
A whole month later, it was only with his powerful physical body that Zhu Fei had nearly fully absorbed the medicinal power of the spiritual medicine.
And his injuries had largely healed over the course of that month.
On this day, just as Zhu Fei had finished meditating and regulating his breath, an anxious and panicked voice sounded outside his tent.
