Sure enough, once the tabloids received those letters, they immediately furled their banners and stilled their drums. Not one dared stir up trouble again.
Just kidding. The Three Elders represented Great Chu Attire; they were the public face of Great Chu. Slander the Three Elders or their relatives, and they could sue you into ruin and send you off to eat prison food.

Tang Changsheng paid little attention to that, however. He had entered seclusion once more...

True to its name, the pill nourished the Primordial Spirit and strengthened Heartlight.
It was already a superior pill, and refining it with Wishfire had made it exceptionally pure. It was practically a Divine Pill.
Its effects were even more Qiang for ordinary people. From birth onward, mortals continually depleted their Primordial Spirits. Once those were exhausted, they could only die. Their souls might even be too weak to become ghosts.
