Chapter 849: Wonderful Pills

Like how Bu Yaolian was suffering, so was Gu Bailu. She wanted to eat the noodles again!

Today, Feng Qingtian was going to contact his people in Rising Clouds Kingdom to find out about the pill refinement.

Since Gu Bailu was pregnant, it wasn’t convenient for her to follow him, so he had her rest at the inn.

Gu Bailu couldn’t endure her craving and said, “Ye Ying, let’s go. I want to eat at Little Shop Noodles.”

Ye Ying didn’t persuade her not to go. After all, it wasn’t good to be cooped up in the inn.

Moreover, Prince Zi had left people behind precisely because he was afraid the princess would feel stifled and rush out recklessly.

Ye Ying called for the guards and left with Gu Bailu.

Outside the inn was a wide, bustling street. It was busy yet quiet. Brightly lit, it was filled with people, but it wasn’t noisy at all.

The road was paved with large limestone slabs. A row of shops had flags hanging from them. The names of the shops varied, but they all had three words: Pill Medicine Shop.

This was a street which specialized in all sorts of major medicinal pills. The people who came and went were all wealthy people.

Gu Bailu had long been interested in the magical pills of Rising Clouds Empire. She hadn’t had the chance to shop around yesterday because of the noodles.

Let’s take a look at the pills first.

Gu Bailu walked into a high-end shop that looked like a modern-day jewelry store. There were all kinds of pills in the glass cabinets. As her glance swept over them, she realized that they unexpectedly all had effects different from each other.

There were pills to boost cultivation speed, blood vitality or spiritual power, and pills for getting taller or thinner, and for changing hair color and body shape…

There was even a freaking Viagra-like pill.

The most amazing was an age reduction pill that modern girls dreamed of; it was no longer a dream to go from 80 to18 years old.

However… one pill cost more than 10,000 taels of silver!

A slightly more ordinary pill for cultivating blood vitality was still a hundred taels of silver per bottle.

That was extremely expensive.

Even if she was loaded, her heart ached at spending that much.

A shop assistant came over happily. “Madam, what type of medicinal pill do you want to buy?”

Gu Bailu thought for a moment. “Is there anything… that I can eat and no one can see me…”

“There is, yes, to turn invisible.” He took a gold bottle from the counter. “Invisibility Pills. 10,000 silver for one bottle. The second bottle is half-price.”

Gu Bailu picked up the bottle and saw that the effect only lasted for a split second…

What? A split second?

What could she do in a split second? There wasn’t even enough time for one stab.

Hehe… So expensive. Are you kidding me?

“Do you have any with a longer duration?”

“Yes… yes.” The shop assistant took out another golden bottle. “This is 15,000 per bottle. The second bottle is 70% off.”

Gu Bailu took a look… Fine, it did indeed last longer… a snap of the fingers…

That was twenty split-seconds.

But tell me, what can I do with a snap of my fingers? That’s not even enough time to tease a girl and kiss her.

“Nothing longer than that?”

The shop assistant smiled. “Madam, our shop is the largest in Rhine City. The alchemists we work with are also the most powerful in Rhine City. Invisibility Pills aren’t easy to make. A snap of the fingers is already the limit.”

“Oh, you guys are great,” Gu Bailu praised. However, the duration of one Invisibility Pill was probably only enough to tease kids with.

Gu Bailu asked about the other pills again.

There were pills that could make one thin, but unfortunately, the duration was too short. The longest the effect could last for was only two hours.

It wasn’t as good as her 9,999 Spring Harbingers.

With the transformation-type pills, a person could change genders or become smaller, bigger, thicker… The problem was the same, that the effects didn’t last long enough.
