Gu Weixiong's face showed a troubled expression, but after noticing Situ Yan's darkened face, he inwardly exclaimed that something was wrong.
Having dealt with Situ Yan for many years, Gu Weixiong understood his character very well. If Situ Yan wore such an expression, it meant he was truly angry.
Gu Weixiong needed to carefully consider how to resolve this matter; otherwise, it would become troublesome.
He knew that the Voidless Palace was currently developing the arts of medicine and poison, and their progress was quite remarkable. It seemed like they aimed to surpass the Yue Family's previous achievements.
Once they succeeded, the influence of the Voidless Palace would reach its peak. If they became enemies, the situation would undoubtedly become complicated.
"Sect Master Situ, please remain calm. Allow me some time to think about this matter," Gu Weixiong looked at Situ Yan with a complex expression before speaking slowly.
Seeing Gu Weixiong's appearance, Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others exchanged a glance and understood that Gu Weixiong was likely to agree.
However, Bai Li Hongzhuang also had some doubts. The functions of these medicinal ingredients were undoubtedly limited, and Gu Weixiong could have simply stated them. His hesitation was not a tactic to gain more benefits through this opportunity, but rather a genuine concern. This was quite strange.
After contemplating for a moment, Gu Weixiong said, "I can tell you about this matter, but besides offering something in exchange, I have one requirement."
"Please go ahead."
"After I reveal this to you, I hope that you won't disclose it to anyone," Gu Weixiong's expression turned grave and serious. His gaze swept over Bai Li Hongzhuang's group, "If you cannot guarantee this, even if you become enemies with my Medicine Sect, I cannot speak."
Seeing Gu Weixiong's attitude, Situ Yan and the others realized that this matter was extraordinary and likely involved the Medicine Sect's secret.
"We swear that we will absolutely not reveal this matter," Bai Li Hongzhuang spoke without hesitation. For her, she didn't care about the Medicine Sect's secrets. She only wanted to know if the Medicine Sect had deceived her regarding these two medicinal ingredients. If she could obtain some information about these ingredients through this, it would be even better.
"We also swear," Situ Yan and the others quickly followed suit.
Seeing Situ Yan and the others' attitude, Gu Weixiong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As cultivators, especially those in Situ Yan's position, the promises they made were extremely reliable.
"Since that's the case, I can tell you, but I require something in exchange," Gu Weixiong said.
"But feel free to speak."
The next moment, Gu Weixiong's gaze fell on Bai Li Hongzhuang.
"I heard that Miss Bai Li possesses the formula for the Rejuvenation Pill."
As soon as these words were spoken, Situ Yan and the others' expressions changed. "Sect Master Gu, although this information is highly confidential, the formula for the Rejuvenation Pill is incredibly precious. Your request seems excessive!"
Gu Weixiong was taken aback and quickly said, "You've misunderstood me. I don't want the formula for the Rejuvenation Pill. I just want to obtain one Rejuvenation Pill from Miss Bai Li."
Upon hearing this, Situ Yan and the others' expressions eased slightly, but their gazes turned to Bai Li Hongzhuang.
They didn't have much understanding of alchemists, but they knew that Gu Weixiong's desire for the Rejuvenation Pill was likely motivated by a significant reason — he probably wanted to study its true formula by analyzing the pill.
"Alright," Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded in agreement.
