Chapter 2022: His Highness Was Trying To Provoke Him!
It was difficult to find the herbs which were used to make the potent medicine; hence, he could not identify what ingredients were added due to his inexperience. Strangely, he trusted that the pill would be effective as he felt a sense of familiarity as he sniffed it.
He realized that his spiritual power had been enhanced drastically after he consumed the pill. To his surprise, the energy of the pill perfectly matched his original energy as if it was meant for him. This made him think that the pill was specially customized for him by Gu Xijiu. Perhaps, she really made the pill just for him? After all, her mission was to assist him in upgrading his spiritual power.
The medicine must be precious, one worth a thousand favors, and yet she gave him an entire bottle! "Do you have many bottles of this?" Di Fuyi asked as he shook the little bottle.
Certainly not, that was the only bottle she had. She consumed a few throughout the years and also gave a few to her close friends and those in need; that was all she had now. However, he would not take it if she told him that it was the only bottle she had. Therefore, Gu Xijiu smiled and answered, "Do not worry; you need it more than me."
Di Fuyi weighed the bottle in his palm and chuckled. "I guess you need it to complete your mission more efficiently? If that is the case, I do not want it!" He tossed it back to her.
Gu Xijiu was speechless. He was such a problematic kid! She gave it to him for the sake of her mission and also to enhance his power; it benefited both parties, but he did not understand it.
Swiftly, Long Siye nicely grilled a few fishes. He then passed it to Gu Xijiu. "Xijiu, I’m sure you’re starving; take this first."
Surprisingly, a hand stretched over and took the fish before Gu Xijiu reached it. "Let me try."
Gu Xijiu did not speak a word as she thought that he deserved it since he contributed quite a lot earlier.
