Chapter 398: The Tranquil Pill!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Master, what... what is this pill?” Staring at that pristine-white pill, Zhuang Meifeng felt a mysterious unease.

Priestess Desireless replied matter-of-factly, “This is a special pill from our Tranquil Sect. It’ll allow you to gain twenty years’ worth of abilities in a month. Even though your physique is ideal now, it’s a little too late for you to start cultivating at twenty-one years old. So, I’m giving you this pill.”

After Priestess Desireless finished her explanation, she saw Zhuang Meifeng’s hesitation. Smiling immediately, she said, “Don’t worry, this pill won’t cause any side effects to you.”

In order to take her as her disciple, it could be said that Priestess Desireless had used some unscrupulous methods. Even though she asked Zhuang Meifeng if she were willing to forget about her love, she obviously knew that a person who was willing to die for her love would not forget about it so easily.

Even though the effects of the pill were as she described, she only explained a small portion of what it could do!

This was the Tranquil Sect’s legendary pill, the renowned “Tranquil Pill”. After swallowing it, any woman would forsake their beloved for good. Not only would she thoroughly forget about her beloved, but she would never develop feelings for any man in the world after!

Forsaking all her feelings, cleansing her heart, and eliminating all her desires!

If Zhuang Meifeng knew about it, she definitely wouldn’t have swallowed the pill even if she were beaten to death. However, the problem was that she didn’t know!

“Master, I-I want to cultivate my abilities on my own and not use this pill...”

Zhuang Meifeng’s instincts told her that something was wrong and that she shouldn’t swallow it.

Her decision to enter the Tranquil Sect was only because she had no other choice. Unless Ling Yun disappeared forever, she would definitely choose to stay with Ling Yun. In this world, there was nothing that would stop her from that!

Furthermore, Zhuang Meifeng had seen for herself how strong Ling Yun was. If she really wanted to start cultivation training, she would rather have begun learning from Ling Yun. Why would she learn from somebody else?

Seeing her sister receive yet another huge acknowledgment, Zhuang Meina started to feel jealous. She told Priestess Desireless, “Priestess, I would like to acknowledge you as my master and enter the Tranquil Sect as well. Since my sister doesn’t want to eat this pill, then I’ll gladly take her place for her.”

Zhuang Meina truly didn’t know what death meant. If she really ate it, it would be akin to the full moon “Chang’e’s Story”, where she would have to repent for her misbehavior for centuries.

Priestess Desireless scoffed. “Your aptitude isn’t good enough. If you ate it, you’d definitely die within ten breaths from internal bleeding. Even a god wouldn’t be able to save you!”

Hearing this, Zhuang Meina was so scared that her face turned pale. She immediately pulled back the hand she extended.

“Meifeng, in front of your entire family, there’s no way your master will hurt you. Are you going to eat it?” Priestess Desireless saw that Zhuang Meifeng refused to eat it. In her heart, she began to get anxious as her face reflected her dismay.

Now that she was pushed to this point, she had no other choice but to go along with it. In any case, it was still a pill that would increase her abilities. Steeling herself, Zhuang Meifeng grit her teeth and swallowed the Tranquil Pill!

Priestess Desireless’ wish was finally fulfilled, and she exclaimed happily, “You’re a wonderful disciple. You can’t have water to wash the pill down, so just swallow it directly!”

With a rush of her saliva, Zhuang Meifeng forced the pill down her throat. The Tranquil Pill began to dissolve in her stomach. In an instant, it turned into a ball of white energy as it began running through her stomach, rushing straight to her brain!

“Ah!” In an instant, Zhuang Meifeng’s face turned pale. Her brain was in so much pain that it felt like thousands of needles were stabbing at it. She immediately clasped her head in pain!

Both of her hands clasping her head, her delicate frame quickly reeled into a ball. She wasn’t even able to stand upright after that. She was in so much pain that she began rolling madly on her own Persian carpet!

Zhuang Meifeng’s reaction was clearly witnessed by the three people from the Zhuang Family. They instantly lost all color in their faces!

“Priestess, this, didn’t you say that this pill would increase her abilities? Why is my daughter in so much pain?”

Seeing his daughter suffer, Zhuang Tiande also panicked. He couldn’t hold back his question for Priestess Desireless.

“Without thunderstorm and rain, how could rainbows be formed? How would a pupa emerge into a butterfly without struggle? Did you really think that twenty years’ worth of abilities could be achieved so easily?”

Priestess Desireless watched Zhuang Meifeng roll about on the floor. In her eyes, there wasn’t a single ounce of emotion as she chastised Zhuang Tiande coldly.

She didn’t have a good impression of Zhuang Tiande. However, she also understood that if Zhuang Tiande hadn’t pushed his daughter into marrying into a good family to achieve glory, she wouldn’t have been able to find such a perfect successor.

Seeing her daughter suffer so much all of a sudden, Zhao Bomin was also anxious. She reached out her hand in the hopes of holding onto her daughter, but she didn’t dare to do so. Panicking, she said, “Priestess, th-this pain, how long does she have to suffer through it?”

When Zhao Bomin had lifted her head again, she was in so much turmoil that both of her eyes were filled with tears. If there wasn’t an outsider here, she would have started a huge fight with Zhuang Tiande!

Priestess Desireless remained as calm as water while she said coldly, “When she finally faints from the pain, it will be over. This is the path that a practitioner of the Tranquil Technique must take. I suffered through this in the past as well.”

In the past, Priestess Desireless had taken the Tranquil Pill. However, it was a time before she had her first menstruation. At the time, she knew nothing of human relationships. The pain that she suffered was completely incomparable to the pain Zhuang Meifeng was dealing with right now.

It was natural that the deeper a person loved, the harder it would be to forget about that. Therefore, the effect of the pill would be greater, hence the greater pain.

Obviously, this had its “benefits” too. It meant that the effects of the pill were even stronger, and it would stimulate the full effects of the Tranquil Pill. As a result, her abilities would become much stronger!

For two entire hours, Zhuang Meifeng endured the excruciating pain. Finally, she fainted with her clothes in a mess and drenched in sweat. Her entire body was quiet and unmoving, except for her weak breathing.

The Zhuang Family had watched over her for two entire hours. Throughout this time, they were on tenterhooks as their intestines flipped about non-stop. Zhuang Meina knew then that if she had eaten the pill, she would have suffered and died after ten seconds. Knowing this, she felt an immense fear!

There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.

However, Priestess Desireless nodded and praised her, “Her potential and aptitude are truly the like that is found once in every hundred years. This is truly a blessing!”

She was able to tell that the Tranquil Pill’s effects were completely stimulated. After a month, Zhuang Meifeng would be able to at least cultivate her abilities to the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine. She might even be able to reach the Xiantian Realm.

Releasing a long breath, Priestess Desireless finally unclenched her fist, which was covered in perspiration.

In fact, there was one thing that she didn’t tell anyone. That was, if Zhuang Meifeng didn’t survive this, she would have died from the pain!

She made a huge gamble with Zhuang Meifeng’s life!

Priestess Desireless didn’t know that if it weren’t for Ling Yun’s Xiantian True Qi that was inside Zhuang Meifeng, there was no way she could have survived this!

There was no other reason. It was because Zhuang Meifeng was deeply in love with Ling Yun. It was to the extent that she was willing to use her life in exchange for his. Right now, in order for her to forget about Ling Yun, that was naturally something that she could only do if she died.

“All of you should leave now. Tell the men outside that if a single person dares to step foot into this room, I will kill them myself!”

Priestess Desireless forced the other three out as well.

After everyone left, Priestess Desireless looked down at Zhuang Meifeng, who was lying on the carpet. Saying this relaxedly, she said, “When you finally wake up, you will forget all about that boy. Don’t blame your master for being harsh on you. This is for your own good!”

After an hour, when her complexion became better, Priestess Desireless picked up Zhuang Meifeng. Carrying her to the second floor of the mansion, she randomly walked into a room.

Using her own pristine and clear Xiantian True Qi at Xiantian Realm Level Two, she continuously transfused it to Zhuang Meifeng. Pressing on her acupressure points, she guided the Zhen Qi from the Tranquil Pill into all her meridians and energy center.

What made Priestess Desireless shocked was that just by doing this, Zhuang Meifeng immediately broke through to Houtian Realm Level Seven, something many cultivators failed to!

Celebrating internally, Priestess Desireless also felt pleasantly surprised. She knew that she had gotten a good disciple this time. Once they returned to the Tranquil Sect, those elders would definitely give her a great reward!

As for Priestess Heartless, she knew that she must have already met her end. She had forgotten all about her long ago.

Finally, Zhuang Meifeng’s realm was at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Seven. Priestess Desireless also stopped transfusing Xiantian True Qi to her as well. Instead, she sat by her side as she quietly waited for Zhuang Meifeng to wake up.

After a while, Zhuang Meifeng woke up. Opening her eyes gradually, her autumn-colored eyes reflected a gaze that was clear as a lake. Without an ounce of greed or desire, she had no thoughts or wishes.

Zhuang Meifeng had thoroughly forgotten about Ling Yun. In her mind, she didn’t have any impression of Ling Yun. It was to the extent that she didn’t even know what his name meant.

“Master.” Seeing Priestess Desireless, her cherry lips curled into a smile as she spoke respectfully.

“You’re awake? Let’s go, we’ll bid farewell to your family. Your master will take you to the Tranquil Sect.” Priestess Desireless was afraid of staying any longer. After Zhuang Meifeng packed some of her belongings, she took her downstairs.

Zhuang Meifeng bade farewell to her own family, then left with Priestess Desireless to the Tranquil Sect as if it were the most natural thing in the world. She no longer had any other thoughts.

“Older sister, you, aren’t you going to wait for Ling Yun to return?” Zhuang Meina had never seen Zhuang Meifeng in such a calm and peaceful state before. She couldn’t help but ask this in shock.

A trace of curiosity flashed past Zhuang Meifeng’s calm gaze as she asked, “Who is Ling Yun?”

“Ah! This...” Zhuang Meina was just about to tell her everything. However, it seemed like she suddenly remembered something as she forcibly held back what she was about to say.

Priestess Desireless’s eyes flashed with satisfaction as she said to the Zhuang Family matter-of-factly, “Right now, Meifeng is a disciple of the Tranquil Sect. After three years, I will allow her to return to visit you.”

This was considered her promise to them. With a swing of her hand, Priestess Desireless held Zhuang Meifeng in her arm as her figure swayed for a moment. Then, the two of them disappeared together!

“Daughter!”

“Sis!”

Zhao Bomin and Zhuang Meina exclaimed as tears filled their eyes!

“Sun Tianbiao, you’d better listen carefully. From now on, our Tranquil Sect is protecting the Zhuang Family. If I find out that you dared to attack the Zhuang Family, don’t blame us for not giving you any face!”

From a distance, Priestess Desireless’s voice traveled to the Zhuang Family’s residence, and her message was delivered clearly to everyone’s ears. Sun Tianbiao clenched his fists in rage!
