Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess

Chapter 59: 059: Aftermath



It was said that the existence of the Divine Doctor is a legend, and that they would walk in all realms, from the mortal to the cultivation world and finally to the immortal realm. She leaves the hall, leaving everyone dumbfounded. No one would have predicted that a legendary pill, rare even in the cultivation world, would appear with the Divine Doctor.

The two masters of Lin Chiyu were staring at the pill bottles with trembling hands. The Qi Gathering Pill is too rare to exist, and it is very helpful for all cultivators in all stages, especially in this realm whose qi is scarce. Seeing her leave the hall, all the mortals followed after her, fearing that the cultivators inside would see them and get back at them.

"Is this really true? That... That Qi Gathering Pill that was recorded in history before?"

"The Divine Doctor is a Pill Refiner as well!"

The two Masters of Lin Chiyu were only at the Peak Foundation Stage, one step behind the Early Innateness Stage, therefore they were not particularly terrified of this old guy with a broken hand. Suddenly, a cultivator at the Early Innateness Stage appeared before the two.

"Excuse me. I am actually one of the victims. Can I check the pill first before making a decision?"

The two elderly masters of Lin Chiyu believed him when they saw his broken arm; they removed one pill from the bottle and gave it to him; the man with the broken hand used his other hand to pick up the greenish pill and examine it; as soon as the pill was exposed, a scent of uncommon, unidentified herbs attacked his nostrils, and he could feel the slightest effect of the pill just by inhaling.

Just smelling the pill allowed him to pick up the change in the qi around him and immediately believe the effects of it.

"It's real. A real Qi Gathering Pill!"

The two old masters of Crimson Cloud passed another one on to the old cultivator, and now that an Innateness Stage Cultivator has spoken out for the pill, everyone in the neighborhood exclaims and believes in its readability.

"Thank you for helping us check the item. We assume you agreed to accept the pill and no longer pursue what happened in the hall."

Carefully, keeping the two pills in a pill box, the old cultivator at Innateness Stage nods his head.

"I wasn't directly involved, but it just got complicated. I will not pursue a broken arm in exchange for a Qi Gathering Pill, which is worth enough. Please excuse me for now."

The other cultivators also accepted the pill and vowed not to pursue what happened in the hall, and they all hurriedly left the venue wanting to report the urgent news of the Qi Gathering Pill and the Divine Doctor. The old cultivator hurriedly left the venue to report about the appearance of a young cultivator and the divine doctor together, as well as what happened in the Crimson Cloud Auction House Hall.

As Chen Yiling's party abruptly stopped them and General Tian Qiusi and his trusted Wen followed, Yue Xuexia and her company were about to leave for the parking lot.

Chen Yiling calls, "Please wait. Wait for a bit. Xiaxia!!!"

After seeing Chen Yiling in the auction hall prior to the start of the auction, Yue Xuexia had every intention of ignoring her, but she could not leave her alone when she saw that shady cultivator trying to take advantage of her. Yue Xuexia had always detested men who made women do things against their will, especially those who moved with lust in their eyes.

Chen Yiling and Yue Xuexia have a straightforward relationship. They are best friends and classmates from high school who attended the same foreign school. The only difference between their friendships is that it stopped after they came home for unknown reasons.

When Yue Xuexia heard that she had been exposed, she stopped short but did not turn around because she did not want to see her old friend again, who had abruptly ended their friendship by letting her go at her most vulnerable moment and cutting it off because she had not attended Chen Yiling's most important day.

At the time, Yue Xuexia's parents were having a terrible argument about money, family, rumors, and everything else. The worst of it all was about their illegitimate elder sister, which no one knows for sure if she is actually her father's daughter or not. It was said that she is the daughter of the woman that his dad dated in college, and because of the distance between them, Yue Xuexia's story seemed plausible. There was no paternity test, contrary to what her father and relatives believed, which caused a rift in their relationship.

When Chen Yiling's debut day approaches, Yue Xuexia is invited as expected, but at that point, she is only a minor, and there is a problem in her family. Because of this, Yue Xuexia was not able to attend Chen Yiling's birthday. Those were the hardest days because their parents would fight so much that the sisters could not stand it any longer, and their family nearly broke up more than a hundred times as a result.

Yue Xuexia can still clearly remember Chen Yiling's weeping face when they video called. Chen Yiling was extremely disappointed in Yue Xuexia, and Yue Xuexia wanted to explain, but the subject of the story is too embarrassing to discuss. Yue Xuexia was unable to explain herself, and Chen Yiling was too disappointed that day. They argued, did not speak for days, and eventually severed their friendship.

Of all her previous friends, Yue Xuexia felt she owed Chen Yiling. Their friendship was shattered; he wanted to blame her parents but also did not have to. She wanted to question Chen Yiling for not giving her time to explain, but that was all in the past now. Their friendship was irrevocably broken, and they would never be able to get back together.

When Hu Yiran, their other buddy, told Chen Yiling what had transpired, Chen Yiling understood, and Yue Xuexia also behaved in the same way. For years afterward, Chen Yiling had been detesting her innocent past.

Seeing how Yue Xuexia acted so distantly toward her, Chen Yiling felt regret and guilt in her heart. "Xiaxia, I wonder if it's possible for me to get your number. I don't mean anything; I just want to do something for you to save us just now."

"Sister Bingyu, give her my business card," Yue Xuexia said as she resumed her steps towards the car with Taiyang. They entered the Rolls-Royce Dawn.

With a smile, Tan Bingyu gave Chen Yiling a black card with a simple design on it that only featured Yue and a silver crescent moon behind; it had no number on it. However, there was another white card that had Tan Bingyu's name and the number of Mystic Pavilion printed on it.

"This is my number. My mistress personal number will be provided once I finish a background check on you. Do contact me for appointments or so," Tan Bingyu said.

The husband of Chen Yiling examined the black card with the crescent moon and Yue's name imprinted on the back. The card was beautiful and clearly made of a special material; the grandeur of the Yue name and the silver moon is demonstrated by the way they seem to be made of powdered diamond dust. He then thought back to the new clan that had entered the richest person in the world and remembered that the lady's name is Yue.

"I actually want..." When Chen Yiling wanted to ask more, her husband suddenly stopped her.

The husband of Chen Yiling, named Chen Lou, pulled his wife back and bowed his head towards Tan Bingyu. "Thank you, Miss. We shall do as you said."

"Smart people are easier to talk to. Then I will take my leave. The mistress and boss are waiting," Tan Bingyu said as she walked towards the Rolls-Royce Dawn and drove away.

Chen Yiling frowned at her husband as she saw a black Rolls-Royce Dawn drive by. She wanted to thank Yue Xuexia personally because she did not understand why he had just pulled her back.

Chen Yiling said, "Why did you stop me!? I haven't thanked Xiaxia properly yet! Moreover, I wanted to talk to her more as well as invite her to our high school reunion."

"Don't get angry, honey. Your friend's identity isn't simple. We should ask Grandfather about it first before approaching her. Didn't you see what happened in the Auctions Hall? The man beside her is a cultivator. A cultivator that is stronger than Grandfather himself. There is no way her background is simple. Let's go home first. That lady just now must be her secretary. After a background check and you pass, you can receive your friend's number. Let's be patient," Chen Lou said.

Chen Yiling said, "I know that! Of course, I am not blind. But it's not because I want to gain benefits that I wanted to contact her. All these years, I owe her much more. I was too childish in the past and hurt her before. I just want to apologize. That's all."

Chen Lou let out a sigh, comforted his wife with an embrace, and then drove home, realizing that his wife was sad despite his inability to comprehend their distance from one another. All he could do was try to calm her down and find out what had transpired between them.

Meanwhile, in the car...

When Taiyang questioned Yue Xuexia what had transpired between her and Chen Yiling, despite her attempts to keep a distance from her, Yue Xuexia intervened and saved her in the auction hall.

Taiyang asked, "What's the story, Xue'er?"

"It's nothing complicated. We just broke up our friendship due to immaturity and circumstances. I owe her a birthday gift on her most important day. That's all," Yue Xuexia said.

Tan Bingyu asked while driving, "Should I give her your personal number, Mistress?"

"Sure. Give me her information as well," Yue Xuexia said.

Tan Bingyu responded, "It will be done."

Back at the parking lot, General Tian Qiusi was observing the two girls there, paying close attention to Yue Xuexia's group in particular. Having witnessed such a cruel and magical scene, he was intrigued and terrified that such a young lady could order people's deaths with just words.

Confidant Wen asked, "General, should we investigate their backgrounds?"

"Try, but don't push through if it cannot be done. For now, escort the ordinary people back to their place and send me back to the main house," Tian Qiusi said. "I need to see my father."

"Yes, General!" Confidant Wen and the soldiers behind him saluted before they dispersed and did their duties.

The Divine Doctor and a formidable young cultivator made headlines that day in both the cultivation world and the mortal realm, and their presence sent shockwaves through both realms they were unaware of.
