"Feeling any better?"
After a long while, He Pingsheng reached out and patted Wen Buwan on the back.
Wen Buwan was still pale, but her emotions had settled down.
After all, she now knew that He Tianzhi was not truly her son. It had merely been someone else's scheme.
"Much better!" Wen Buwan asked He Pingsheng, "What are you planning to do next?"
He Pingsheng said, "Find somewhere and prepare to break through to Primordial Unity!"
"Huh?" Only then did Wen Buwan rub her eyes and look at He Pingsheng, saying in surprise, "Brother, you... actually broke through your bottleneck?"
He Pingsheng nodded. "Just now, Tianzhi tried to poison me with Heaven's Witness, the deadliest poison in the Demonic Realm. Fortunately, I took that Chaos Pill Senior Brother Wang gave me!"
"It neutralized the poison, and I broke through the bottleneck along the way!"
The way this bottleneck had broken was rather strange. Even He Pingsheng himself was like a ten-foot monk who could not make head or tail of it.
Had he not been poisoned, taking a Chaos Pill could indeed have broken through the bottleneck!
But when taken after being poisoned, the Chaos Pill would only serve to neutralize the poison.
As for whether the bottleneck had broken in the course of neutralizing the poison, or whether He Pingsheng had broken through it by undergoing death just now, even he could not figure out which it was.
In any case, he had broken through it without quite knowing how.
Whichever it was, the outcome was good.
"Are you going back to the Great Void Sect, Brother?" Wen Buwan asked.
He Pingsheng shook his head. "No... I was the one who made you sad. I want to spend the time ahead by your side!"
"Wherever you go, I'll go!"
