Chapter 567: Chapter 567: When You Wake Up, I’ll Let You Do as You Please_1

”Heh, this guy actually wants to lift the Pill Furnace by himself? Has he lost his mind? It almost took four of us to lift it...”

The four men around the Pill Furnace watched Yan Hu with derisive expressions, ready for a good laugh, but the man who opened his mouth to mock hadn’t even finished his sentence when he froze on the spot, and the other three also stared dumbly at Yan Hu.

The half-human-height Pill Furnace was already hoisted up by Yan Hu, and what was even more exaggerated was that after hearing the nearby man’s words, Yan Hu glanced at him and, holding just one foot of the Pill Furnace, he hoisted it up with one hand.

With a disdainful glance at the four men, Yan Hu strode confidently behind Jiang Chen.

...

Returning to Dingjing, Jiang Chen handed Chen Zhen Feng over to Zhou Cheng and went back to his Dingyun Lake Villa.

Having Yan Hu place the Pill Furnace in a specially vacated Elixir Room, Jiang Chen began studying the Pill Furnace.

Looking at the Pill Furnace before him, Jiang Chen placed his hands solemnly on the furnace wall.

Back at the auction, the energy that emanated from the Pill Furnace had caused Jiang Chen some concern. If the Pill Furnace simply repelled probing, that would be one thing; but if it outright rejected his blood energy, then his future elixir concocting would be troublesome.

In the past, Jiang Chen would infuse his blood energy into the elixir before it solidified, which improved the quality of the elixir. This was something he had discovered unintentionally while researching elixir concocting, and to this day, Jiang Chen hadn’t figured out why that was.

Hum!

Tentatively operating his Cultivation Technique, Jiang Chen controlled strands of blood energy to coil around his hand and gently touch the Pill Furnace.

Hum hum hum!

The Pill Furnace suddenly vibrated, and a misty aura from within struck Jiang Chen’s palm.

Jiang Chen’s brows knitted slightly as he closed his eyes to feel it carefully.

”What? This is...” Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes, unable to help exclaiming.

Upon close examination, Jiang Chen found, to his shock, that his trace of blood energy wasn’t dispersed by the aura inside the Pill Furnace. Instead, the aura had filtered the blood energy, purifying it and transforming quantity into quality.

At the auction, Jiang Chen, worried about causing an anomaly, had cut off the connection with the sliver of blood energy he released as soon as he felt the Pill Furnace’s aura, and therefore didn’t notice this at the time.

Having realized this, Jiang Chen was overjoyed. Right after his breakthrough, his first thought was to heal Ye Jingyi, but when he tried to perform the Asking Heaven Needle Technique, he found he still couldn’t execute it fully, always feeling a lack of follow-through power.

Initially planning to try it tonight after returning, Jiang Chen now decided to wait. He would use the Pill Furnace to filter all his blood energy, discarding the coarse and keeping the refined. This would give him a better chance of bringing Ye Jingyi back to consciousness!

For an entire month, Jiang Chen stayed in the Elixir Room.

In the first week, Jiang Chen filtered all his blood energy and was astonished to find that after filtration, it became nearly three times purer, but only one-tenth remained.

Realizing he might need a substantial amount of time to filter his blood energy, Jiang Chen re-crafted a batch of elixirs originally provided to Xuan Long and handed them to An Long to deliver to Xuan Long. For this batch, Jiang Chen used one third of the Medicine Saint’s treasured Spiritual Medicine, much to the Medicine Saint’s heartache.

For the rest of the time, Jiang Chen fully devoted himself to filtering his blood energy, over and over again, until he felt he could not refine it further. Then he suddenly discovered that his blood energy had now become nearly ten times purer!

”I had no idea this Pill Furnace had such an effect, what a huge gain!”

Jiang Chen muttered excitedly, his eyes revealing a determined look, ”This time, I must wake Jing Yi up!”

Stepping out of the room, Jiang Chen paused slightly. In the living room, Gong Lin, Ye Yuwan, and Fu Ling’er were playfully tussling on the sofa, becoming a tangled group.

With a soft smile, Jiang Chen turned and went upstairs to enter Ye Jingyi’s room.

Upon seeing Jiang Chen ascend the stairs, Gong Lin suddenly realized something, patted Ye Yuwan and Fu Ling’er, who were on top of her, and whispered, ”Stop messing around, let’s go up to the second floor.”

”What for, Sister Gong Lin?” Fu Ling’er rose to her feet, looking puzzled at Gong Lin.

Ye Yuwan seemed to grasp something and quietly inquired, ”Did Jiang Chen come out? Is he going to wake Jing Yi up?”

”Yes.” Gong Lin nodded, stood up, and walked toward the second floor, with Ye Yuwan quickly following.

Fu Ling’er crinkled her nose, muttering to herself as she followed, ”That overly beautiful sister can be treated? I’m going to see too. I can’t let her push away Sister Gong Lin and Sister Yuwan!”

Reaching the second floor, they saw Gong Lin and Ye Yuwan standing at the door to Ye Jingyi’s room, not entering. Fu Ling’er looked at the closed door curiously and said, ”Why aren’t you going in?”

As she spoke, Fu Ling’er reached out to push open the bedroom door.

”Hey, Ling’er!” Gong Lin quickly grabbed Fu Ling’er, ”Don’t disturb Jiang Chen.”

Blinking, Fu Ling’er asked confusedly, ”If we’re not going in, why come up here?”

”Wait and see if Jing Yi... wakes up.” Gong Lin’s eyes showed a hint of unease, and Ye Yuwan also appeared worried.

”Are you worried that Brother Jiang Chen won’t be able to wake Jing Yi up?” Fu Ling’er’s face was reassuring as she spoke, ”Don’t worry. Brother Jiang Chen is very powerful; he’ll definitely wake Jing Yi up.”

Gong Lin smiled faintly, ”I believe in Jiang Chen.”

As her words fell, Gong Lin looked up at the room door, her eyes once again revealing some concern.

”That’s not it, if you believe in Brother Jiang Chen, what are you worried about? You guys...” Fu Ling’er suddenly widened her eyes in surprise and whispered, ”You, you don’t want to...”

”Ah, Ling’er, don’t jump to conclusions,” Ye Yuwan frowned and glanced at Fu Ling’er, ”It’s not what you think. We all want Jing Yi to wake up, it’s just that... ah, I can’t explain it to you.”

Fu Ling’er looked suspiciously at the two, pouted, and leaned on the nearby railing, her face full of puzzlement.

Inside the room.

Jiang Chen gently stroked Ye Jingyi’s face, speaking tenderly, ”Jing Yi, I will be able to wake you up soon, but I’m sorry, I really can’t reject the affection of Lin Lin and Yuwan. I... I know I’m not a good man, I hope you can forgive me, if...”

A look of extreme conflict appeared on Jiang Chen’s face, ”If you can’t accept them, I... I don’t know what to do!”

”Forget it, when you wake up, I’ll listen to your decision!” Jiang Chen clenched his teeth, stood up, took a deep breath, and slowly stirred up the blood qi within his body.

Afterward, Jiang Chen began to move.
