Ms. Doctor Divine - Chapter 1905

1905 Cooperation 6
It would be some time before Gu Chaoyan could visit the stone gambling store, so she decided to refine a batch of pills first and assess the situation.

“I’ll take the ordinary Spirit Stones. Please sell me some,” Gu Chaoyan requested as she presented the golden knives.

Grandpa promptly gathered the Spirit Stones, and with 1,000 golden knives, she acquired a substantial quantity.

Hastening back with the Spirit Stones, Gu Chaoyan had two objectives in mind. Firstly, she wanted to check if Huang Fu had read her message, and secondly, time was of the essence. She needed to craft the Invisibility Pills as quickly as possible.

Lately, she had been contemplating other ideas as well.

Refining the pills on her own would be time-consuming and slow her down. If Lingyun could join her in the pill-making process, their efficiency would increase. However, Lingyun specialized in refining drugs, and Gu Chaoyan wondered if she would be willing to learn how to create pills. She resolved to find the right opportunity to discuss it with her.

Returning to the spatial realm, Gu Chaoyan headed to the study and found that her note remained untouched. Huang Fu was nowhere to be found.

Worry began to weigh on Gu Chaoyan’s mind.

Letting out a sigh, she proceeded with pill refinement.

Since it was her first time crafting the Invisibility Pills, she wasn’t overly familiar with the process. Furthermore, she needed to maintain a high level of concentration to ensure nothing went awry.

It took her ten hours to complete one batch of Invisibility Pills.

After ten hours, the pills were finally ready, but the success rate remained at a fifty-fifty ratio.

She was already immensely satisfied with the fact that such a high-grade pill had a 50% success rate.

Gu Chaoyan carefully stowed away the pills and decided to take a much-needed break. It was already bright outside, indicating that she had been awake the entire night.

As soon as she lay down, exhaustion consumed her, and she fell into a deep slumber.

Upon the return of Zhou Huaijin and the others, Gu Chaoyan stirred from her sleep, but she still felt disoriented and dizzy.

She had initially planned to enter the space and check if Huang Fu was present.

However, before she could do so, Sword One had already rapped on the door, and Gu Chaoyan granted them entry.

As soon as she stepped inside, Sword One eagerly exclaimed, “Elder Miss, guess what we’ve obtained? Fu Bao managed to acquire a Dharma artifact—a nine-segment whip that suits him perfectly. He used to practice with a similar one.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded absentmindedly, her mind elsewhere.

Nevertheless, a small smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

Sword One sensed that something was amiss with her Elder Miss. “Elder Miss, what’s the matter? Haven’t you rested well?”

Gu Chaoyan shook her head slightly.

While she hadn’t enjoyed a good rest, her concerns were primarily focused on Huang Fu’s whereabouts. This preoccupation had caused her to be distracted.

Observing her, Zhou Huaijin quietly inquired, “What’s wrong?”

Knowing Gu Chaoyan well, he understood that her distraction couldn’t solely be attributed to a lack of rest. Something must have happened. What could have occurred to her when she was alone at 500 meters?

Though Zhou Huaijin remained unaware of the specifics, he regretted leaving her alone at that distance.
Gu Chaoyan found the entire situation vexing, yet she had no one to confide in. After contemplating for a moment, she nodded.

Zhou Huaijin instructed the others to leave the room.

Once they were alone, he asked, his voice low, “What happened?”

“I told you before that my Master has been missing for the past two days, and I have no idea where he is. This wouldn’t have happened previously, especially while I’m occupied with making pills these days and at the Haitian Market.”
