Chapter 100: No Matter How Precious, It Cannot Compare to My Senior Sister's Value

“Hall Master, there’s still no news for the time being.”

“I suspect Tang Rixin has already left Tianmen City; otherwise, the Dark God Temple wouldn’t be unable to trace his whereabouts.”

Han Bao looked ashamed.

In truth, how could he not want to capture Tang Rixin? After all, his injuries were caused by Tang Rixin. The only reasonable explanation for not finding him was that Tang Rixin was no longer within the borders of Tianmen City.

Upon hearing this, Chu Tian was silent for a moment before taking out the bottle of tap water he had just brought.

“This is for you.”

He placed the bottle down with a tone tinged with subtle meaning.

“For me?”

“May I ask, Hall Master, what exactly is this...?”

Han Bao looked puzzled. To him, it was just an ordinary bottle of plain water, revealing no clues at all.

Of course, Han Bao knew Chu Tian to be unfathomably profound; this bottle of tap water could not be as simple as it appeared.

He scrutinized the water again. Aside from its clear and transparent appearance, there was nothing unusual.

“I just came from home and didn’t bring any gifts,” Chu Tian said calmly, not at all joking.

“This is the tap water I just filled; I haven’t had time to boil or heat it. Just make do and take a small sip.”

Han Bao twitched at the corners of his mouth. Although suspicious, he dared not question Chu Tian’s words.

“Drink.”

Chu Tian repeated firmly, clearly not joking.

Han Bao felt helpless. He found a small cup, poured a little water into it, raised it slowly to his lips, and glanced at Chu Tian again.

Chu Tian’s gaze remained steady and unremarkable.

Han Bao twitched again, thinking, it’s just drinking a cup of tap water.

Even if Chu Tian asked him to risk his life, he wouldn’t hesitate, let alone just drink some water.

Convinced that Chu Tian wouldn’t harm him, he raised the cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Boom!

In an instant, a surge of pure vitality flooded his body.

It was a very familiar sensation, like the nourishing Qi pill he had taken before—the pure life energy swiftly restored the blood and Qi within him, invigorating his body.

Of course, the nourishing Qi pill’s effect was more pronounced, and this bottle of water was far less potent.

“Hall Master, this... this really is just tap water?”

Han Bao was incredulous, feeling the changes within his body.

“It is indeed tap water, but I dissolved a tenth of a nourishing Qi pill into it,” Chu Tian explained with a light chuckle.

“A tenth of a nourishing Qi pill dissolved in water?”

Han Bao’s expression froze. He knew how precious the nourishing Qi pill was. Dissolving it in water like this turned the bottle into an invaluable treasure.

“You’ve just begun to recover from serious injuries and still need to properly nurture your body. The pill’s potency is too strong for you to take a second one, so I dissolved a tenth of it into the water.”

“Drink a little every day; it will help you recover faster.”

Chu Tian said.

“Thank you, Hall Master!”

Han Bao was grateful, carefully holding the bottle as if it were a treasure.

Seeing his cautious demeanor, it was as though he revered that bottle of water above all else.

“All right, rest well. I have matters to attend to.”

Chu Tian said and turned to leave.

“Hall Master, please take care.”

Han Bao rose to see him off, but Chu Tian waved him off, urging him to rest.

That afternoon, at Qingxue Group.

“Xiao Tian, you’re in such a hurry to see me. What’s going on?”

Liu Qingxue looked at Chu Tian curiously.

Since Chu Tian declined to join Qingxue Group last time, he hadn’t set foot there. Why was he here now?

“Big Sister, you want to get into the cosmetics business, right? Have you ever heard of skincare products that, when used long-term, can preserve youth forever?”

Chu Tian carefully chose his words, unsure how to begin.

“Preserve youth forever?”

“In our cosmetics industry, the goal is to make people look radiant. If such a skincare product truly existed, the entire industry would be revolutionized!”

Liu Qingxue paused, considering Chu Tian’s line of thought.

“So you think launching such a product would definitely be profitable?”

Chu Tian knew this was a lucrative opportunity. He wanted his senior sister’s Qingxue Group to thrive.

“Xiao Tian, what exactly do you mean? Could it be that you have such a skincare product?”

Liu Qingxue’s eyes flickered with doubt as she looked at Chu Tian.

He smiled softly and produced another bottle of tap water.

“What is this?”

Liu Qingxue frowned. The bottle looked ordinary, just like plain water, nothing like a cosmetic skincare essence.

She, like Han Bao, found it hard to believe, even though it came from Chu Tian.

“Big Sister, I dissolved a tenth of a nourishing Qi pill into this water. If you dilute this bottle, you can make many more skincare products.”

“Long-term use of these waters can make people look younger, tighten skin, erase wrinkles, and even heal minor ailments.”

Chu Tian smiled confidently, fully trusting in his creation.

“Nourishing Qi pill?”

“You dissolved it into water?”

“You reckless boy, don’t you realize how precious the nourishing Qi pill you refined is?”

Liu Qingxue felt as if a rare treasure was being wasted.

She knew well how precious the pill was. Previously, Chu Tian had distributed them to seven senior sisters to enhance their strength.

After experiencing its miraculous effects, they understood this pill could enhance cultivation.

For martial artists, such a pill was priceless.

Now, Chu Tian was using it for cosmetics?

Was he mad?

Moreover, the nourishing Qi pill required Chu Tian’s personal craftsmanship; it couldn’t be mass-produced.

A cosmetic that couldn’t be mass-produced, even if miraculous, couldn’t quickly dominate the market.

“No matter how precious, it’s still not as precious as my senior sister,” Chu Tian said with a mischievous grin, teasing Liu Qingxue.
