Chapter 1035: Chapter 1035: Miss Gu’s Alchemy Is Very Impressive
The expressions of the three, upon hearing this, changed slightly.
They weren’t foolish and didn’t immediately agree.
Ma Tao and Lv Suhua remained silent, deep in thought, while Jin Xiaolan looked at Ling Piaomu and directly asked, "Why should we trust you? We can’t even get in, and you can?"
Ling Piaomu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the two guards, "I want to take three guests inside, is that possible?"
The guards clearly recognized Ling Piaomu. Upon hearing her request, they hesitated for two seconds before finally saying, "Yes, but you can’t take them to see Miss Gu."
Upon hearing the guard’s affirmative response, Ling Piaomu ignored the latter part of their statement, turning to face the three of them.
Jin Xiaolan also heard the guard’s answer and quietly speculated about Ling Piaomu’s identity but remained outwardly composed, smiling as she said to Ling Piaomu, "Why don’t you tell us what the problem is first? We can’t guarantee we’d answer all your questions correctly."
Ling Piaomu smiled slightly and said, "It’s alright. I won’t make it difficult for you. Just answer what you know."
"Then go ahead and ask." This time, it was Lv Suhua who spoke.
After all, answering a few questions doesn’t cost anything and might even lead to meeting Miss Gu. It seemed quite worthwhile.
Ling Piaomu, upon hearing this, asked the first question, "How many times has Gu Zhiqi visited the Medical Alliance?"
"Is Gu Zhiqi Miss Gu’s full name?" Instead of answering Ling Piaomu’s question, Lv Suhua asked back.
Ling Piaomu heard this and was silent for two seconds before nodding.
At that moment, a tinge of regret arose for having asked these three questions.
If they don’t even know Gu Zhiqi’s name, can they really answer her questions?
Seeing Ling Piaomu nod, the three silently noted Gu Zhiqi’s full name, and then Jin Xiaolan spoke up, "As far as we know, Miss Gu has visited the Medical Alliance twice, besides this time, she also came once more than half a month ago."
Regarding other times, Jin Xiaolan didn’t know if Gu Zhiqi had visited the Medical Alliance.
Ling Piaomu continued to ask, "I heard that at the end of last month, there was a revolt in the Medical Alliance, which Gu Zhiqi quelled?"
The three nodded in unison once more.
Ling Piaomu: "It seems the disciples of the Medical Alliance, as well as the management people like Minister Yue, are all quite enthusiastic about Gu Zhiqi. Besides her quelling the revolt in the Medical Alliance, is there any other reason?"
No sooner had Ling Piaomu asked than Jin Xiaolan answered swiftly, "Miss Gu’s Alchemy is very powerful. Last time, when a disciple of the Medical Alliance was poisoned, the antidotes they found were hardly enough. It was Miss Gu who taught the Alliance Hierarch and others to concoct the antidote."
As soon as Jin Xiaolan finished speaking, Lv Suhua immediately chimed in, "Not only that but everyone who practiced Alchemy alongside Miss Gu made significant advancements in their Alchemy skills, with more than ninety percent advancing."
On that day, Lu Yuanjiang boasted about his advancement in front of them, prompting Lv Suhua to investigate further.
Upon investigating, Lv Suhua realized that it wasn’t just Lu Yuanjiang—all those who assisted Miss Gu had almost all advanced.
Gu Zhiqi gathered a total of twelve assistants, and among them, only one had not advanced.
This advancement rate was truly astonishing.
Ling Piaomu: ?????
Even when Jin Xiaolan mentioned Gu Zhiqi’s prowess in Alchemy, Ling Piaomu was already bewildered, with question marks floating above her head.
After hearing Lv Suhua’s words, a ring of question marks hovered around Ling Piaomu’s head, leaving her completely confused.
