Not long after consuming the Life Potion, Yun Shan was astonished to discover that the hidden injuries accumulated within his body over so many years had completely dissipated.

With his consciousness wandering through his body, Yun Shan conducted a careful examination, a look of immense excitement spreading across his aged face.

Without these hidden injuries, Yun Shan was confident that even if he failed to pull a divine pill, he would be able to successfully break through to the Dou Zong realm within three years.

A pleasant surprise!

For Yun Shan, this was an absolutely monumental surprise.

"Teacher, are you alright?"

Seeing Yun Shan remain silent after consuming the Life Potion, Yun Yun could not help but reveal a worried expression on her beautiful face.

"I am fine!"

"How could anything be wrong with me!"

"I feel better than ever!"

Hearing this, Yun Shan felt incredibly joyous and spoke with a hearty, satisfied tone.

Subsequently, he recounted what had just occurred within his body.

"Teacher, are you saying that this bottle of Life Potion has completely healed all the hidden injuries you had accumulated?" Yun Yun widened her eyes, looking at Yun Shan in astonishment.

Gu He's face also displayed a look of shock, while simultaneously feeling a tinge of regret in his heart.

Had he known this potion possessed such miraculous effects, he should have requested one to study it thoroughly.

If he could manage to research a way to produce the same potion, wouldn't he be set for life?

Gu He was naturally well aware of the hidden injuries on Yun Shan's body.

Before Yun Shan went into seclusion, he had asked Gu He to treat him many times, but despite racking his brains, Gu He had been powerless to help.

He had not expected that such a small bottle of potion would cure the very injuries that had left him completely helpless.

What a truly magical potion; it was no wonder this Boss Ye dared to make such wild claims about being able to treat any injury.

"Teacher, congratulations!" After recovering from her shock, Yun Yun felt happy for Yun Shan. She was naturally very clear about the state of her teacher's hidden injuries, and now that they were gone, her teacher would most likely be able to break through to the Dou Zong realm.

"Hehe, Yun'er, this is all thanks to you!" Yun Shan wore a kind, benevolent smile.

Nalan Yanran was also standing to the side, genuinely happy for her grandmaster.

"Grandmaster, just you wait. I'll pull a divine pill for you in a moment so you can break through to the Dou Zong realm directly." As Nalan Yanran spoke, she walked straight to the counter, grandly produced three hundred thousand gold coins, and said to Ye Yun, "Boss Ye, please give me three jars."

Hearing the request for three jars, a flash of surprise crossed Ye Yun's eyes, though he immediately understood that Yun Shan had yielded his own jars to Nalan Yanran in order to obtain another Level 1 VIP Card.

He naturally had no objections to this. With a thought, three jars from the wooden shelf flew directly onto the counter.

"This... Old Sect Master, are you not going to open any jars?" Gu He, standing to the side, saw this and, fearing that Yun Shan might take the jar that belonged to him, hurriedly spoke up to "remind" him.

"It is no matter. This girl Yanran has better luck than this old man, so I shall let her open them," Yun Shan explained with a chuckle, naturally understanding what Gu He was thinking.

Upon hearing Yun Shan's words, Gu He felt slightly more at ease, though he cast a surprised glance at Nalan Yanran.

He had not expected the Old Sect Master to dote on this girl Yanran so much; it seemed he was preparing to groom her as the next Sect Master.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran looked at the three jars on the counter. Like Yun Yun, she silently prayed once, then struck one of the jars, shattering it instantly.

As a burst of colorful light surged, the original jar vanished, and an object appeared on the counter.

It was a cylinder that appeared to be cast from pure gold, about a foot long, looking quite ordinary.

"Boss Ye, what is this thing?"

Nalan Yanran looked curiously at the pure gold cylinder on the counter and asked in confusion.

Ye Yun swept his gaze over it and saw the information regarding the pure gold cylinder.

Peacock Feather: A hidden weapon ranked third in the Tang Sect hidden weapon manual from [Douluo Continent]. It contains three hundred and fifty-six hidden projectiles across twelve categories, each with different functions such as piercing, explosive damage, and potent poison.

This thing is a Peacock Feather?

Upon seeing the information for the pure gold cylinder, a look of astonishment appeared on Ye Yun's face.

When he was in elementary school, he had read Douluo Continent and had some impression of the Peacock Feather.

When this hidden weapon was fired, it resembled a peacock spreading its tail, brilliant and magnificent. Yet, in that moment of dazzlement, it would claim a life. The most beautiful things were also the most dangerous, hence the name Peacock Feather!

It sounded quite formidable, but Ye Yun found it difficult to estimate the true power of the Peacock Feather.

After all, this thing came from Douluo Continent, which was essentially the "sewer" of fantasy settings.

The only way to gauge its power was the mention in the original Douluo Continent text that the Peacock Feather could break the Martial Soul Avatar of a Spirit Saint and kill them.

But just how strong was a Spirit Saint in Douluo Continent?

Ye Yun admitted he did not know.

Thus, facing Nalan Yanran's curious gaze, he could only say to her, "This thing is called a Peacock Feather, a type of hidden weapon. As for its power... you can try it out yourself and see."

"Try it?"

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran was stunned: "How do I try it?"

Ye Yun pointed to a button on the Peacock Feather and said, "You only need to press this button to activate the Peacock Feather."

"It's that simple?"

Nalan Yanran held the Peacock Feather, a look of anticipation appearing on her face.

Her gaze swept across the crowd, lingering on Yun Yun, then Yun Shan, before finally settling on Gu He.

"Elder Gu He, could you help me test the power of this Peacock Feather?" Nalan Yanran aimed the Peacock Feather at Gu He and asked cautiously.

She was unsure of the Peacock Feather's power and naturally dared not use her teacher or grand-teacher as test subjects.

Seeing Nalan Yanran's actions, Gu He's heart skipped a beat. What was this girl doing? Could this thing just be pointed at people willy-nilly? What if it cost someone their life?

Upon hearing Nalan Yanran's request, Gu He's mouth twitched. This crazy girl, could this really be tested so casually?

What if a test turned into a funeral?

Would you take responsibility for that!

"No!"

Gu He spoke immediately, refusing sternly.

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran looked somewhat disappointed. Her eyes rolled, and she turned her gaze toward Ye Yun, asking persistently, "Boss Ye, tell me, if I were to aim this Peacock Feather at Elder Gu He, what would happen?"

"What would happen?"

Ye Yun paused for a moment, then said indifferently, "It won't kill him."

"Elder Gu He, you heard that, right? Boss Ye said it won't kill anyone, so you shouldn't be afraid anymore, right?"

Having received Ye Yun's reply, Nalan Yanran immediately aimed the Peacock Feather in her hand at Gu He once more, looking eager.

This crazy girl!

Not killing someone didn't mean it wouldn't cause injury!

What if he ended up crippled?

Watching Nalan Yanran aim the Peacock Feather at him again, Gu He instantly felt the urge to give her a sound thrashing.

But after glancing at Yun Yun and Yun Shan nearby, both of whom were watching him with expressions of anticipation, Gu He sighed inwardly before cautiously activating his Dou Qi shield.
