Chapter 769: Chapter 242: Moon God: Master Talks about Master, Disciple Talks about Disciple_2

Having said that, Wang Mu pulled the Moon God behind him and gave him a look, simultaneously sending a message using the Divine Light Mirror in his Sea of Consciousness.

[Wang Mu: Don’t say another word.]

[Moon God: I can tell that person just wants to get back at your Cultivation World. I took a glance just now, and her romantic destiny is fragmented. It clearly indicates she once had a romantic connection, but sadly, it didn’t entwine properly. In plain terms, she faced resistance—most likely rejection...]

[Wang Mu: ...]

[Moon God: Heh, let me use the Marriage ball to see which cultivator rejected her...]

[Wang Mu: Stop looking. If you want her to stop selling that kind of Elixir, doing that is useless. Just watch me.]

[Moon God: You?]

Wang Mu remained silent.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Alchemist Jie Chen, could you give me a Forget Love Pill?"

Gu Yuqing flicked her sleeve, turned, and tossed an Elixir to Wang Mu. "This is the only one," she said. "Now leave."

Wang Mu caught the Elixir and, upon closer inspection, was immediately stunned.

"Immortal Sorrow?"

Wasn’t this the replica of Immortal Sorrow I created during the Alchemy Dao conference?

It’s an exceptionally special Spirit Pill; no one else could produce it at that time but me.

Good heavens... has Gu Yuqing figured it out on her own?

This Elixir has a somewhat idealistic nature; its effects change according to one’s own intentions. Although it’s a replica, it’s inherently very special.

It once helped Eldest Senior Brother break through his Heart Demon bottleneck.

No wonder...

The Moon God said this Elixir could affect causality...

"Have you ever taken it yourself?" Wang Mu asked, stroking the Elixir.

"Why do you ask that?" Gu Yuqing turned back to face the middle-aged man, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

This man... he feels strange.

"Just curious, asking casually..." Wang Mu replied.

"As a Pill Master, of course I’ve taken the Elixirs I’ve refined myself," Gu Yuqing stated indifferently.

Wang Mu was contemplative.

"Previously, the Pill Master said," Wang Mu continued, "Elixirs originate from the needs of cultivators. That is true. Those who seek the Forget Love Pill presumably do so to forget their former Taoist couples and sever past romantic connections."

"Then why," Wang Mu went on, "doesn’t Alchemist Jie Chen make an Affection Pill instead? It could enable those cultivators with romantic destinies to fulfill their love and become Taoist couples."

Behind him, the struggling Moon God suddenly paused.

This kid...

Gu Yuqing was also taken aback.

"Compared to forgetting a romantic destiny," Wang Mu said, "wouldn’t it be a better solution to help those Taoist couples who are facing emotional conflicts, or wish to separate, restore their original affection?

"After all, once forgotten, even those who were in love can become heartless.

"Alchemist Jie Chen, do you wish for more lovers or more heartless people in this world?"

The Moon God, still behind Wang Mu, silently nodded. This kid might have more potential to become a Marriage Fairy Official than I do! Those words make so much sense!

"You..." Gu Yuqing’s eyes flickered, seemingly deep in thought. "Are you also a Pill Master?"

"I suppose I’m half a Pill Master," Wang Mu nodded.

"Then why did you want to take..." Gu Yuqing began.

"I’ve never taken a Forget Love Pill," Wang Mu shook his head. "Actually, it was my friend here who wanted to see you, so I intentionally used that pretext to get you to open the door. In the current Cultivation World, the number of Taoist couples is dwindling, and bonds of matrimony are hard to form.

"To successfully form a matrimonial bond must also be a kind of merit, right? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"I can see that you, Pill Master, travel the Nine Provinces wishing to accumulate merit and do good deeds," Wang Mu stated. "Therefore, you might consider fostering romantic destinies, rather than severing them."

"Yes, exactly!" the Moon God nodded vigorously.

I’ve finally seen this kid’s brilliance! Truly a descendant of the Regent King. I heard that back then, it was solely due to the Regent King’s silver tongue and strategizing that he helped his mother establish the Li Dynasty...

"What you say... has some merit," Gu Yuqing nodded slightly. "My perspective has been somewhat narrow... Your level of Alchemy Dao surpasses mine, Senior."

"I have a question," Gu Yuqing said suddenly, "and I seek enlightenment from you, Senior."

"Please, speak."

"I..." Gu Yuqing paused, thinking for a moment. "I have a friend... she fell in love with her own Master’s... lover... and still cannot forget him.

"If, as you suggest, destroying a romantic destiny is less ideal than fostering one... then in your opinion, should my friend forget this romantic attachment, or should she strive for it?"

"..." Wang Mu.

"..." Moon God.

"Your friend..." the Moon God asked, his voice somewhat shaken, "is it mutual? If it is, isn’t that man utterly shameless? To develop feelings for his lover’s disciple!

"How can your friend fall for such a person?"

"..." Wang Mu.

"If it’s not mutual, just one-sided..." the Moon God continued, "then it’s unrequited love. That’s not a romantic destiny, but a disastrous entanglement. Naturally, it would be best to end it; otherwise, it will only lead to worse consequences."

Gu Yuqing was taken aback.

"I don’t know if it’s one-sided or mutual..." she said.

"That man... isn’t shameless. It’s just that my friend gradually and unknowingly fell for him. Later... they also shared some experiences and interactions... At that time, he didn’t know my friend was his lover’s disciple... so neither of them was at fault.

"Later, her Master also found out..."

"So... it was all a misunderstanding?" the Moon God offered, drawing on his years of matchmaking experience. "But it’s still a disastrous entanglement. I would advise your friend to give up. Persuade her not to ruin another person’s relationship.

"Using the Forget Love Pill in this way is for the best."
