Shortly after taking the Life Potion, Yun Shan was astonished to discover that all the old injuries accumulated within his body over the years had completely vanished.

His spiritual sense traveled through his body as Yun Shan carefully inspected himself, an incomparably excited smile appearing on his aged face.

Without those old injuries, Yun Shan was confident that even if he failed to obtain a Divine Pill, he could successfully break through to the Dou Zong realm within three years.

What a surprise!

For Yun Shan, this was an absolutely tremendous surprise.

"Teacher, are you all right?"

Seeing that Yun Shan had remained silent after drinking the Life Potion, Yun Yun could not help but reveal a worried expression.

"I'm fine!"

"How could anything be wrong with me!"

"I've never felt better!"

Hearing this, Yun Shan was overjoyed and spoke with a broad grin.

He then explained what had just happened within his body.

"Teacher, are you saying that this bottle of Life Potion healed all the old injuries that had accumulated inside you?" Yun Yun widened her eyes and looked at Yun Shan in shock.

Gu He also revealed a stunned expression, while inwardly feeling somewhat regretful.

If he had known this potion possessed such miraculous effects, he should have asked for it and studied it thoroughly.

If he managed to develop an identical potion, wouldn't he rise to fame and fortune overnight?

Gu He naturally knew all too well about Yun Shan's old injuries.

Before Yun Shan entered seclusion, he had repeatedly asked Gu He to treat him, but despite racking his brains, Gu He had been powerless.

He had never expected that such a tiny bottle of potion could heal the old injuries on Yun Shan that had left him completely helpless.

What a miraculous potion. No wonder Boss Ye dared to boast that he could treat any injury.

"Teacher, congratulations!" Once Yun Yun recovered from her shock, she was delighted for Yun Shan. She naturally knew very well about his old injuries. Now that they were gone, her teacher would most likely be able to break through to the Dou Zong realm.

"Hehe, Yun'er, it's all thanks to you!" Yun Shan wore a kindly smile.

Nalan Yanran, standing nearby, was also sincerely happy for her grandmaster.

"Grandmaster, just wait. I'll open a Divine Pill for you later and let you break through directly to the Dou Zong realm." As she spoke, Nalan Yanran walked straight to the counter, generously took out three hundred thousand Gold Coins, and said to Ye Yun, "Boss Ye, please get me three Jars."

Hearing her ask for three Jars, a trace of surprise flashed through Ye Yun's eyes. He then understood that Yun Shan had given his Jar to Nalan Yanran in order to obtain one more Level 1 VIP Card.

Naturally, he had no objections. With a thought, three Jars flew from the wooden shelf onto the counter.

"Th-this... Old Sect Master, aren't you opening a Jar?" Seeing this, Gu He hurriedly spoke up to "remind" him, afraid that Yun Shan would take the Jar meant for him later.

"It's fine. Yanran has better luck than this old man, so let her open it." Yun Shan naturally understood what Gu He was thinking and explained with a chuckle.

Only then did Gu He feel slightly relieved, though he also looked at Nalan Yanran in surprise.

He had not expected the Old Sect Master to cherish this girl Nalan Yanran so much. It seemed he was preparing to raise 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 before slapping one Jar apart with her palm.

As a burst of radiant light surged forth, the Jar vanished, and an object appeared on the counter.

It was a cylinder that appeared to be forged from pure gold. It was about a foot long and looked utterly ordinary.

"Boss Ye, what is this?"

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

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

Peacock Feather: The third-ranked concealed weapon in the Tang Sect's concealed weapon manual from [Douluo Continent]. It contains a total of three hundred and fifty-six concealed weapons in twelve categories. These twelve categories have twelve different effects, including piercing, explosive wounds, deadly poison, and more.

This thing was the Peacock Feather?

After seeing the information on the pure gold cylinder, Ye Yun immediately revealed a surprised expression.

He had read Douluo Continent back in elementary school, so he had some impression of the Peacock Feather.

When this concealed weapon was fired, it resembled a peacock spreading its tail—brilliant and dazzling. Yet while one was mesmerized by its splendor, it had already taken one's life. The most beautiful was also the most dangerous; thus, it was called the Peacock Feather!

It sounded quite powerful, but Ye Yun had no way of estimating the Peacock Feather's actual might.

After all, this thing came from Douluo Continent, the bottom rung of fantasy worlds.

The only measure of its power was a mention in the original Douluo Continent novel that the Peacock Feather could break a Soul Sage's Martial Soul Avatar and kill a Soul Sage.

But just how strong was a Soul Sage in Douluo Continent?

Ye Yun had no idea.

Thus, faced with Nalan Yanran's curious gaze, he could only tell her, "This thing is called the Peacock Feather. It's a concealed weapon. As for its power... you'll know once you try it yourself."

"Try it?"

Nalan Yanran froze upon hearing that. "How do I try it?"

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

"It's that simple?"

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

Her gaze swept over everyone present. She looked at Yun Yun, then at Yun Shan, before finally settling on Gu He.

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

She did not know how powerful the Peacock Feather was, so she naturally did not dare use her teacher or grandmaster as a test subject.

Seeing Nalan Yanran's actions, Gu He's heart skipped a beat. What was this girl doing? Could that thing be aimed at people so casually? What if it killed someone?

After hearing Nalan Yanran's request, Gu He's mouth twitched even more. This crazy girl—was this something she could just test?

What if trying it meant dying?

Would she take responsibility?

"No!"

Gu He immediately spoke up and sternly refused.

Nalan Yanran was somewhat disappointed upon hearing that. Then her eyes shifted as she looked at Ye Yun and stubbornly asked, "Boss Ye, tell me, what would happen if I aimed this Peacock Feather at Elder Gu He?"

"What would happen?"

Ye Yun paused before answering blandly, "It won't kill anyone."

"Elder Gu He, you heard him, right? Boss Ye said it won't kill anyone. You're not afraid now, are you?"

After receiving Ye Yun's answer, Nalan Yanran immediately aimed the Peacock Feather at Gu He again, her face filled with excitement.

This crazy girl!

Not dying didn't mean he wouldn't get hurt!

What if he was crippled?

Seeing Nalan Yanran aim the Peacock Feather at him again, Gu He suddenly had the urge to beat her up.

But when he saw the faintly expectant looks on Yun Yun and Yun Shan's faces as they watched him, Gu He sighed inwardly and solemnly activated his Dou Qi shield.
