Previously on Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return...
Mu Hanyan quietly activated her Divine Sense, probing into the red fruit, yet found nothing unusual about it, seemingly no different from the other fruits she had seen before.
"Eat it, eat it." The Little Auspicious Beast, looking at Mu Hanyan as if presenting a treasure, said, swallowing his saliva.
"It can speak? A pig can speak too?" Sikong Qinglan ignored the fruit and looked at the little piglet in surprise.
"You’re the pig, you motherless fool, your whole family are pigs!" The Little Auspicious Beast was provoked and cursed back angrily.
Sikong Qinglan was completely taken aback by the insult and forgot to be angry.
"No swearing." Mu Hanyan glared and reprimanded, "Didn’t I spank you hard enough last time?".
"Hmph!" The Little Auspicious Beast shrank its head, then snorted arrogantly, not sparing another glance at Sikong Qinglan, turned its head, and continued to gaze earnestly at Mu Hanyan.
"What exactly is this?" Mu Hanyan asked, not having the habit of eating things randomly.
"I don’t know, but it should be edible." The Little Auspicious Beast said.
Mu Hanyan wiped her cold sweat, thinking he was a glutton, how could he expect her to eat something unknown, did he not know eating random things could be deadly.
Seeing Mu Hanyan holding the fruit without eating, the Little Auspicious Beast was a bit disappointed, and without urging her further, took a small fruit himself and stuffed it into his mouth.
This fruit was identical to the one in Mu Hanyan’s hand, equally fresh and luscious, but much smaller, only the size of a pigeon egg.
"Wait!" Seeing this glutton eat without understanding what it was, Mu Hanyan was startled, hurriedly speaking up to stop him.
But that fruit was really too small, and before her words fell, the Little Auspicious Beast had already chewed it rapidly into pieces and swallowed it down, ending by touching his belly contentedly.
"Hope this thing really is edible." Mu Hanyan silently prayed.
Unfortunately, things in the world always go against one’s wishes, just as she was thinking this, the Little Auspicious Beast suddenly let out a painful cry, rolled his eyes, kicked his legs, and fell on the ground with his four limbs up.
"Liu Guang!" Mu Hanyan exclaimed, quickly bending down to hold the Little Auspicious Beast in her arms.
Apart from its identity as the Kirin Young Master, the little guy had been by her side for so long, rescuing her several times in critical moments, in her heart, it was not just a friend or partner, but even family.
The Little Auspicious Beast lay straight in Mu Hanyan’s arms, its aura growing weaker and its vitality gradually dissipating.
"Liu Guang..." Mu Hanyan held the Little Auspicious Beast tightly, tears uncontrollably began to flow.
Mu Hanyan habitually sent her Divine Sense to probe into the Little Auspicious Beast’s body, but this time, her powerful Divine Sense had no effect, its body seemed to be a chaos, her Divine Sense entered but found nothing, only felt its vitality constantly fading, making Mu Hanyan feel as if her heart was being torn apart.
"Lord Sacrificial Officer, please, find a way to save it." Mu Hanyan implored Ye Yi’an, tears streaming down her face.
In such a situation, even in the Holy Court Continent she was mostly helpless, let alone in the Divine Continent, she could only appeal to Ye Yi’an.
"Han Yan, don’t worry, I’ll try to find a way." Without needing Mu Hanyan to say more, seeing her anxious expression, Ye Yi’an knew the significance of this little piglet to her, although... it was merely a pig that ran fast, but Ye Yi’an did not wish to see her so heartbroken, he had already opened his bag, began searching for a suitable Elixir.
"Found it, found it." Ye Yi’an picked up an Elixir, excitedly handed it to Mu Hanyan, his expression somewhat unusually solemn.
"This is..." Even if she hadn’t fully comprehended the laws of the Divine Continent, as soon as Mu Hanyan received the Elixir, she could feel its surging Dan Power, knowing this Elixir was certainly extraordinary.
"It is called the Seven Treasures Life Extending Pill, I... used a Secret Technique to refine it, originally intended to prolong my life when my lifespan reached its end, but now that there’s you, it doesn’t matter if I live longer or shorter by a few years, you should use it." Ye Yi’an said kindly, only hesitating slightly when mentioning the Secret Technique.
Even without explicit words, Mu Hanyan could guess, this Seven Treasures Life Extending Pill must have been refined by Ye Yi’an using the Holy Court Secret Skill merging with Priest Divine Technique, it surely took considerable effort and time, possibly even his lifetime, intended for extending life when his lifespan was near end.
"Lord Sacrificial Officer, thank you." Mu Hanyan knew how important this Seven Treasures Life Extending Pill was to him, she said solemnly, deciding inwardly, once she became a Temple Priest, she must find a way to help Ye Yi’an enhance cultivation and extend his life, to repay his helping hand.
"Between us there’s no need for such formalities, hurry up and use this Elixir to save your sacrificial pet." Ye Yi’an waved his hand, and said with a smile.
Mu Hanyan nodded, placing the Elixir into the Little Auspicious Beast’s mouth.
The Elixir melted upon entering, its surging Dan Power fused into its body, Mu Hanyan full of anticipation, watched the Little Auspicious Beast without blinking.
As the Dan Power circulated throughout its body, the Little Auspicious Beast’s condition gradually stabilized, although its eyes remained closed, its vitality ceased to fade, and the stone hanging in Mu Hanyan’s heart gradually fell to ground.
But suddenly, her expression changed.
Just stabilizing for a moment, the Little Auspicious Beast’s vitality again began to fade, and the speed increased, its rosy color turning grayer, clearly, continuing like this the little guy was sure to be beyond saving.
"How can this be, how can this be..." Mu Hanyan tightly clenched her fists, heart filled with pain and helplessness, even when her fingernails pierced deeply into the meat, drawing blood, she remained oblivious.
Ye Yi’an looked at the little piglet, surprised. Mu Hanyan guessed correctly, this Seven Treasures Life Extending Pill had been refined with the Holy Court’s Alchemy Technique blended with Priest Divine Technique, expending his life’s energy to create, even after consuming numerous Elixirs pushing life potential to the extreme, relying on this last Seven Treasures Life Extending Pill, he could have extended life by decades, the strength of its Dan Power clear.
Usually, the stronger the Exotic Beast, the more resilient its vitality, if any accident occurs, wanting to extend its life requires even more vast Dan Power. Who would have thought, even such an Elixir still could not save this sacrificial pet’s life. Ye Yi’an immediately realized, this little piglet was surely not as simple as it appeared.
However, no matter how extraordinary it was, it cannot change its fate, not even the Seven Treasures Life Extending Pill could save it, Ye Yi’an was also at his wit’s end.
"Han Yan, leave it to fate." Ye Yi’an sighed and comforted Mu Hanyan.
