3371 It Can Fly

"Fine! I'll take that bet!" Before she had even taken two steps, Mu Rouxuan's sharp cry came from behind her.

Mu Rouxuan pulled her hand back, forcefully pushing Mu Qingya, with such strength that she nearly knocked Mu Qingya to the ground.

Fortunately, Cong Lu reacted quickly and helped the First Madam up, looking up to see her pale face, she couldn't help but be shocked and angry, "Young Miss, how can you treat Madam like that?"

Qiao Mu turned her face, her gaze calmly falling on Mu Rouxuan. She raised a finger and gently shook it, "Don't regret it later."

Mu Rouxuan sneered, "Such a small box, I'm guessing it's a pill."

Even if this girl had been practicing alchemy since she was in her mother's womb, at her young age, she probably couldn't refine any peerless pills.

If that were the case, how could a mere pill compare to the mechanism drawing she presented?

"It is a pill." Qiao Mu nodded. "You guessed correctly."

"Old Master, before you open the box, please set up a defensive shield first," Qiao Mu reminded him lightly.

Mu Cang had no choice but to sigh, glancing at Mu Rouxuan, then flipping his hand to open the small brocade box.

Instantly, a brilliant light burst forth from within the brocade box, and with it, a perfectly round pill, as if alive, leaped out with a whoosh, seemingly desperate to escape.

A flicker of excitement passed through the Old Master's eyes. When the pill jumped out, a peculiar fragrance permeated the air, instantly filling the entire banquet area.

It was truly incredible!

Fortunately, he had listened to his granddaughter's words and set up a defensive shield beforehand, otherwise, this pill would have flown away!

The old man chuckled heartily, reaching out to pinch the pill between two fingers. The pill wiggled slightly in his hand before becoming still and subdued.

"Hahahaha!" The Old Master's booming laughter brought everyone back to their senses.

Patriarch Qin jumped up, his voice trembling with excitement and disbelief, his eyes wide as he exclaimed, "Black... Black-patterned pill! It's a black-patterned Longevity Pill!"

A commotion broke out below. Even if they hadn't eaten black-patterned pills, as members of great aristocratic families, they at least had that much knowledge.

Black-patterned pills were top-grade elixirs, of unparalleled quality, truly rare in the world, and impossible to find even with ten thousand gold!

Everyone turned to look at the crimson-faced Mu Rouxuan, sighing inwardly. The Young Miss's competitive stunt had completely made her lose face.

The clan members who had been put in a difficult position by Mu Rouxuan earlier now couldn't help but mock her.

"Did the Young Miss lose?"

"Just because you lack foresight doesn't mean others can't produce good things."

"If she had listened to the First Madam earlier, none of this would have happened."

Patriarch Qin had now quickly walked forward. "May I have a look?"

Under everyone's gaze, the Old Master wasn't afraid that Patriarch Qin would snatch it. He smiled, placed the pill back into the brocade box, and handed it to Patriarch Qin.

Patriarch Qin held it in his hand, admiring it with continuous exclamations of praise, "It truly is a top-grade pill, divine-grade! A divine-grade, top-grade Longevity Pill!"

His eyes couldn't help but gleam with extraordinary light. In recent years, such excellent quality, top-grade Longevity Pills were truly rare.

Today had certainly opened his eyes!

The members of the Qin Residence swarmed forward, everyone at this moment wishing they could snatch the pill from Patriarch Qin's hand.
