The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot novel Chapter 693

Chapter 693: 575 Fu Yunshen Protective Shortcomings [1 Update]_2

"So this is Miss Zijin’s brilliance," the Fourth Elder nodded. "She has a deep understanding of pharmacology and knows that by simply changing the order, she can turn a heat-biased Energy Dissipating Pill into one that’s biased toward cold."

"The Pill Alliance also specifically taught this point when instructing members on refining medicine, but it’s indeed difficult to apply. You must learn to adapt, not be rigid. The knowledge in the books can also be applied more broadly."

The winter hunting medicinal refining competition can indeed greatly enhance the medicine refining ability of the ancient medical field.

Because in the process of refining medicine, one must pay attention not only to their own medicine furnace but also to their opponent’s.

A single missed step can lead to the production of the wrong antidote.

This is not sneaky sabotage, but an overwhelming display of ability.

Meng Qingxue certainly noticed that Ying Zijin had changed the order of the medicinal ingredients, but she never really thought it would alter the medicinal properties.

Meng Qingxue’s lips trembled, a heavy taste of iron in her throat as she struggled to speak, "I’m sorry, I really didn’t mean to harm you. The antidote is with the Great Elder, you won’t come to any harm, I truly didn’t... "

She just wanted to prove that she was superior to Ying Zijin in refining medicine.

Ying Zijin’s gaze was cool, her expression indifferent, "But I don’t like pain."

She could endure pain, but that doesn’t mean she liked it.

She doesn’t harm others, but she keeps her guard up.

If it were just a Vein Severing Pill, there would be no pain initially.

But a Vein Fragmenting Pill is different, it would hurt right from the start.

And indeed, without careful observation, one wouldn’t realize that what Meng Qingxue refined was actually a Vein Fragmenting Pill.

Because the amount of ingredients needed for the two elixirs isn’t much different.

Meng Qingxue did see her change the order of ingredients, yet she still failed to refine the correct antidote.

Fu Yunshen’s grip on Ying Zijin’s fingers tightened bit by bit, his palm icy, his chest also aching as if it was shattering.

He didn’t know how she died before, nor why she could live again with her memories intact.

Clearly, her memories had returned not long before he first met her, which is why she now had the ability to protect herself.

But just that one year alone, when Ying Zijin was forcibly drained of blood by the Ying Family, unable to eat or sleep well, and also under tremendous mental pressure...

It was suffering enough.

He had felt pain, and he knew how unbearable it was.

"She is in pain, and it breaks my heart," Fu Yunshen’s gaze finally fell on Meng Qingxue for the first time. "Your pain, that’s tolerable."

There were no words more devastating than these nine.

Meng Qingxue simply couldn’t bear it, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth as if beads had slipped from a cut thread.

"Fu Yunshen!" Patriarch Meng was furious to the extreme, "Can’t you keep quiet? You know she gets emotional when she sees you and it affects her body, are you doing this on purpose?"

"Yes, deliberately," Fu Yunshen said indifferently as he touched the girl’s head, "let’s go."

Because of his many experiences, he usually doesn’t use harsh words on others.

Liking someone isn’t wrong, and those who liked him were never few.

Those who came to confess, he always rejected politely, which is a respect for the girls.

Meng Qingxue had caused him quite a lot of trouble in the ancient medical field, even pushing him to the brink of life and death on several occasions, where a slight inattention could have been the end.

Fu Yunshen didn’t mind and took it as a learning experience.

But when it involved Ying Zijin, things were different.

Meng Qingxue’s complexion grew paler by the moment, even her lips losing their color, her voice trembling, "I really didn’t intend to hurt her, I just wanted to show you that there were areas where I could be more formidable than her..."

Foo Chen, listening on the side, finally realized what was going on.

Over the years, many had sought to marry Meng Qingxue from the Meng Family, but she had never married.

On one hand, her health was indeed poor; on the other, she had refused them all.

It turns out Meng Qingxue actually fancied his ancestor?

"Why do you feel the need to compete? Even if you do win, what then? He won’t like you any more or less," Foo Chen was puzzled but spoke incisively, "To be honest, even if Miss Ying can’t refine medicine, Brother Fu’s affections are still for her."

"You couldn’t possibly think that by outmatching her, Brother Fu would start to see you, could you?"

Meng Qingxue had been sheltered in the Meng Family for too long, having no idea how matters of the heart really worked, did she?

Meng Qingxue’s chest heaved violently with surged qi, blood spilling from her lips once again.

Ultimately unable to withstand it, she fainted.

Patriarch Meng’s face turned ashen.

The one who had spoken was Foo Chen.
