BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 65: Teacher, Wastefulness is Shameful

Time flies by.

It's been three days since Xiao Yixian encountered danger.

Yunlan Sect, Gu He's residence.

"Teacher, are you increasing the dosage again today..."

Liu Ling soaked his entire body in a large bath, watching with a bitter expression as Gu He added the Blood Ignition Pill into the bath.

This was already the fourth pill added by Gu He.

The bath was already a deep red, and countless bubbles were splashing out as if it was about to boil.

After only a few minutes of soaking, Liu Ling felt a tingling sensation all over his body, as if he was rolling on a mountain of knives.

Hearing this, Gu He glanced at Liu Ling, his movements uninterrupted. He said indifferently, "Are you sure you don't want to add more? Xiao Yixian broke through to the five-star Dou Master yesterday."

Perhaps due to experiencing a life-and-death battle, after recovering her body, Xiao Yixian unexpectedly made a breakthrough without taking any poison. She had already reached the five-star Dou Master realm.

Hearing this, Liu Ling's eyes flashed with astonishment. After a moment of hesitation, his eyes gradually became firm. "Teacher, then add it!"

"Add it fiercely. After this pill, give me another one." A hint of determination appeared on Liu Ling's face.

At this rate, he would never catch up to her junior sister's strength. The thought of always being suppressed by her junior sister in the future made Liu Ling unable to accept it.

Hearing this, Gu He looked up at Liu Ling again. "Are you sure? This pill is already your limit. Adding another pill might damage your body. If it gets more serious, you might end up as a cripple."

"Ah..."

Liu Ling exclaimed, and his face revealed a somewhat embarrassed expression. "Teacher, then forget it. I think four pills are good enough."

"Haste makes waste. If you want to catch up to your junior sister's realm, then honestly stick to soaking in medicine every day." After pouring the fourth pill of Blood Ignition, Gu He said casually and then slowly walked towards the pavilion.

Hearing this, Liu Ling was about to say something, but his expression changed.

With the pouring of the fourth pill of Blood Ignition into the bath, it seemed to have triggered a qualitative change. The red liquid in the bath began to boil completely.

A more terrifying, heart-piercing pain quickly swept through Liu Ling's entire body.

"Ah!..."

The next moment, a painful wail echoed in the courtyard.

To this scene, Gu He was already accustomed. He just sat in the pavilion with an indifferent expression, leisurely sipping his tea.

After an hour, the tea in Gu He's teapot had been consumed.

Liu Ling in the bath was now unable to utter a sound, only left with weak groans.

His entire body, from head to toe, showed no intact skin; there were signs of festering.

Gu He set down the tea cup and slowly approached the edge of the bath to inspect.

Seeing that the water in the bath had almost returned to clarity, the crimson color had disappeared. Looking at Liu Ling, who was now unconscious, a hint of satisfaction appeared in Gu He's eyes.

This kid, although his talent is not as good as Xiao Yixian's, his perseverance is not bad. Given enough time, he might be able to make up for this gap.

Seemingly sensing Gu He approaching, Liu Ling opened his eyes hazily. A smile squeezed out at the corner of his mouth, "Teacher, disciple has successfully overcome the challenge again."

Gu He nodded, with a gentle expression, "Not bad, you're still a man."

Afterward, Gu He reached for his storage ring, took out a jade bottle.

Seeing the jade bottle in Gu He's hand, Liu Ling suddenly jolted, somewhat incoherent, "Teacher, are you here again? Disciple really can't hold on. Disciple will die..."

Gu He glanced at Liu Ling, scolded with a smile, "Why are you so excited? This is for treating your injuries. Otherwise, with your current condition, how can you continue with special training tomorrow?"

"What's wrong? Don't want it? Then, I'll take it back."

After speaking, Gu He pretended to retract the jade bottle.

Liu Ling's face immediately changed, wearing a forced smile, "No no no... Teacher, I was wrong!"

Only then did Gu He slowly open the jade bottle. Soon, a green liquid, like jade, poured into the bath.

As the green liquid entered the water, it turned into a mist, spreading in the bath.

Soon, Liu Ling felt a refreshing sensation sweeping over his entire body.

"Mm..."

A pleasant feeling surged, and Liu Ling couldn't help but moan.

"Teacher, what kind of potion is this? It feels so comfortable. Give me another bottle." Liu Ling licked his face and smiled.

Gu He sneered, "You think too highly of yourself. This bottle costs a million gold coins. Do you think it's for your pleasure?"

"What?"

"A million gold coins for one bottle!"

Liu Ling was shocked at the price, looking at the jade bottle in Gu He's hand in disbelief.

Gu He nodded, "This is Purple Jade Spirit Liquid, a healing elixir ranked fifth. If it weren't for your perseverance today, I wouldn't be willing to take it out for you."

"Fifth-grade spirit liquid!"

"No wonder it costs over a million gold coins!"

Hearing this, Liu Ling's eyes flashed with understanding. He realized that today he had used four bottles of Blood Ignition Pill, a fourth-grade elixir, priced at around five hundred thousand gold coins per bottle. Adding the one-million-gold-coin Purple Jade Spirit Liquid...

Liu Ling couldn't help but feel a bit shocked. This round of special training had cost him a whopping three million gold coins!

Three million gold coins!

He thought about his family, whose total annual income was only about six to seven million gold coins.

In other words, the two days of his special training had cost the entire Liu family's year of hard work.

Thinking about this, Liu Ling's heart was filled with mixed emotions. Looking at his teacher, who seemed calm and indifferent, as if nothing had happened, his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

Although he seemed carefree on the surface, he was extremely meticulous in his thoughts.

Thinking that his teacher had spent such a huge price just to provide him with special training, Liu Ling's heart inexplicably became somewhat heavy.

Seeing Liu Ling suddenly fall silent, Gu He thought he was shocked by the price of the Purple Jade Spirit Liquid. He couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, I have some resources at home, and a bit of spirit liquid is not a big deal. Just go ahead and use it with all your might."

Thinking of the more than twenty billion in the infinite gold coin card, Gu He was full of confidence.

Hearing this, Liu Ling was a bit moved and said, "Teacher, thank you!"

Gu He smiled slightly, "As long as you make progress, that is the greatest gratitude to me."

After that, Gu He turned around to return to the pavilion.

"Teacher..."

At this moment, Liu Ling suddenly

spoke again, looking somewhat awkward.

Seeing Liu Ling's expression when he turned around, Gu He thought he wanted to express more thanks, feeling quite pleased, "Although this kid seems reckless all day, he still has some filial piety..."

Thinking of this, Gu He said calmly, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Only hearing Liu Ling staring at the jade bottle in Gu He's hand, he slowly said, "Teacher, can you give me the jade bottle?"

Gu He was a little puzzled, "What do you want the jade bottle for?"

However, he didn't think much and directly handed the jade bottle to Liu Ling.

Liu Ling took the jade bottle, stared at it for a moment, then suddenly brought the bottle to his mouth. In the astonished expression of Gu He, he used his tongue to lick up all the remaining elixir on the bottle mouth and swallowed it.

Liu Ling quickly cleaned the bottle mouth, then looked up at Gu He's stunned expression. Although he felt a bit embarrassed, he thought about the one-million-gold-coin elixir and said with confidence, "Teacher, wasting is shameful!"
