Chapter 386: 386
“Forget it. Bring me the pill,” Bing Wu said.
Bing Ning handed the pill to Bing Wu, who narrowed her eyes.
“Grandmother, is there any problem with the pill?” Bing Ning asked worriedly.
Since she was born, Bing Ning had suffered from the Physique of Ice. If she had not been tough, she would have been tortured to death. Even though she started to accept her fate over the years, she got worried when the Ice Marrow Pill was right in front of her.
“It’s real,” Bing Wu said.
Bing Ning breathed a sigh of relief and smiled dazzlingly.
“Congratulations!” A cultivator in blue said quickly.
“But…” Bing Wu frowned
“Is there a problem with this pill?”
Bing Wu shook her head. “This pill has just been refined.”
Bing Ning widened her eyes and said, “Is it a new pill? Hasn’t Ice Marrow Grass of ten thousand years been extinct long ago?” Ice Palace had found the Ice Marrow Grass of fewer years and tried to ripen it. However, it died when it reached the age of six thousand years.
“It doesn’t matter. The effect of the pill that has just been refined is better. Take it.” Bing Wu had expected it to be a pill from some old monsters. A pill from tens of thousands of years would lose some of the effects even if it was preserved well. A new pill was much better.
Bing Ning took the pill and said happily, “Thank you, Grandmother. I’ll go and take it now.”
The cultivator in blue watched her leave and said, “Ancestor, Bing Ning doesn’t have to suffer any more with the pill.”
Bing Wu nodded and said, “Yes. She has suffered a lot these years. Thankfully, we posted the reward this time. We were not holding any expectation, but it works.”
“But Ancestor, this is too strange. We have been searching Ice Marrow Grass for so many years in vain, but this person managed to find it.” The cultivator in blue said.
Bing Wu narrowed her eyes and said thoughtfully, “From the look of the pill, it should be good. Maybe some cultivator accidentally met it. There are too many coincidences in the world.”
The cultivator in blue didn’t agree. “I think he has a way to ripen the Ice Marrow Grass.”
Bing Wu glanced at him without saying anything.
The cultivator in blue looked at her face, and his heart sank. “Ancestor, sorry for talking too much.”
“This person is unwilling to deal in person. It is really strange. However, there are many masters and forces in Sky City, and we can’t offend them even though we are powerful,” said Bing Wu with a grave face.
The cultivator in blue nodded and said, “You are right.”
Xiao Jinting stayed in the jade space and took a deep breath.

He checked the treasures from Ice Palace in the transmission box. There was no problem, but every piece had been stamped with the soul mark of a Deity. If he used the treasures outside, he would be tracked down.
Xiao Jinting rubbed his forehead anxiously. He reacted quickly, but he was not sure how much Ice Palace knew about him when the treasures were transmitted.
He put away the treasures and fiercely cursed the Deity of Ice Palace.
…
Xiao Jinting went out of the room in the black robe. There were many cultivators in black robes on the street, so he didn’t attract any attention.
After a while, Xiao Jinting saw several Ice Palace cultivators wandering around the tower.
He found that the scope of their searching was wide, so he guessed they sensed his location in that instant, but it was not very accurate. He heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as Ice Palace couldn’t accurately determine his location, he should be fine if he was careful.
After all, there were major forces in the tower where he stayed, and Ice Palace couldn’t thoroughly search the place.
Not long after Xiao Jinting left the tower, he saw Qiao Xiang and several young men surrounding a pretty female cultivator, who was arrogant and willful, but they didn’t mind her bad temper.
Xiao Jinting looked at Qiao Xiang and got suspicious. Chen Lifeng didn’t find any problem when Chen Xu was set up. Xiao Jinting had asked Chen Lifeng before, but the latter said that Qiao Xiang had nothing to do with it.
Although Xiao Jinting didn’t know why Chen Lifeng was so sure, he knew the latter wouldn’t make a mistake. However, Xiao Jinting had a feeling that Xiao Xiang was behind it.
If Chen Xu died, Chen Lifeng would be sad, but he didn’t suffer other losses.
Recently, Xiao Jinting had an idea that Qiao Xiang might not have anything to do with this, but Luo Yuting might be involved. As far as he knew, Luo Yuting and Qiao Xiang had started dating long ago. If they dated before Qiao Xiang and Chen Xu got engaged, the whole thing would be very fishy.
Xiao Jinting looked back at Qiao Xiang, who was chatting happily beside the female cultivator, and he rolled his eyes. ‘Qiao Xiang has taken his wife to Sky City, but he is flirting with another woman. What an unfaithful guy!’
