Chapter 1036: Chapter 1036: Ling Piaomu’s Shock and Prejudice
Gu Zhiqi can practice alchemy now?
How did Gu Zhiqi learn alchemy?
Not only that, but from what they’re saying, Gu Zhiqi’s alchemy skills are pretty impressive?
Seems like she’s more formidable than Yueyue?
That must be wrong. Isn’t Gu Zhiqi just a pretender who only knows how to envy and plot against Yueyue?
How can she know alchemy?!
Ling Piaomu, unaware of Lv Suhua and Jin Xiaolan’s thoughts, waited for them to ask another question, but after a long time, Jin Xiaolan spoke up, “Do you have any other questions to ask?”
They were in a rush to see Miss Gu.
Time was running late; if it got too late, Miss Gu might want to rest, and they might not get to see her.
She still hoped Miss Gu would teach them alchemy tonight.
Jin Xiaolan’s question brought Ling Piaomu back to her senses.
Though she had returned to her senses, Ling Piaomu’s mood was still complex, so she asked, “You mean Gu Zhiqi’s alchemy skills are more impressive than your Minister Yue’s?”
As soon as Ling Piaomu asked this, Jin Xiaolan’s gaze changed instantly, conveying a look that meant “Isn’t that a stupid question?”
However, still hoping Ling Piaomu would lead them in, Jin Xiaolan gently said, “Of course. Minister Yue has been with the Medical Alliance for two years but has never made ten disciples advance overnight. Yet, Miss Gu is different; she used just one night to make fourteen alchemists of various cultivation levels advance.”
To increase persuasion, Jin Xiaolan added, “Remember, Miss Gu only took fifteen people for alchemy that night.”
Of the fifteen alchemists, fourteen advanced, demonstrating the terrifying advancement rate.
This further convinced Ma Tao and the others that if Miss Gu taught them alchemy, they could surely advance as well.
Listening to Jin Xiaolan’s response, Ling Piaomu felt incredibly conflicted.
For a moment, Ling Piaomu suspected if these three were hired actors by Gu Zhiqi, specifically putting on a show in front of her.
However, Gu Zhiqi seemed to have no reason to do that.
If she weren’t being watched, Ling Piaomu would have pulled her hair in frustration, feeling her mind wasn’t making sense.
No matter what, she couldn’t understand why the Little Green Tea suddenly mastered Ancient Martial Arts and alchemy.
Though Ling Piaomu didn’t pull her hair, her complex emotions showed through her expressions. Jin Xiaolan, noticing this, asked, “Miss, do you have any more questions?”
“That’s all, you can come with me.”
Ling Piaomu indeed had many more questions, but the complexity of her emotions made her unwilling to ask.
Since she promised to take the three to see Gu Zhiqi, she wouldn’t go back on her word.
Whether they would disturb Gu Zhiqi wasn’t something she wanted to consider.
Despite Gu Zhiqi’s prowess in Ancient Martial Arts and seemingly impressive alchemy skills, it didn’t warm Ling Piaomu to her; lingering prejudice kept her from liking Gu Zhiqi much.
Therefore, Ling Piaomu didn’t bother considering if the group would cause Gu Zhiqi trouble.
After leading the three into the courtyard, she directly pointed out Gu Zhiqi’s room to them, heading towards the alchemy room.
She wondered if Yueyue had finished her alchemy.
Thinking about these matters, Ling Piaomu walked ahead.
Just as she reached the alchemy room’s door, she noticed it opening, and Gu Xiyue walked out, visibly delighted.
