BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 271: Zi Yan's Power Surge!

"Hehe, Elder, you're well aware of how much this girl can eat. With so many pills and the energy of spiritual medicines accumulated in her body, suddenly being released, it's natural for her strength to surge," Gu He casually made up an excuse in response to Su Qian's question.

Su Qian could naturally sense the perfunctory tone in Gu He's words.

Everyone has their secrets, and Su Qian did not wish to pry further. Moreover, he could see that with Zi Yan's physique, such a rapid advancement would not impact her future growth.

"That's true, with Zi Yan's special physique, it indeed might be possible," Su Qian said with a laugh.

After looking around, Su Qian suddenly said to Gu He, "Since Elder Gu He's house has been demolished, I will immediately arrange for someone to come and repair it."

"No need to bother the Elder!"

Hearing Su Qian's words, Gu He pointed at Zi Yan, who stood on the spot with a look of grievance, and said, "Let her deal with the mess she created."

"That sounds good!" Su Qian nodded in agreement with Gu He's suggestion, then turned his gaze to Zi Yan.

After understanding Gu He's words, the look of grievance on Zi Yan's face disappeared instantly. She then raised her small fists and assured with her somewhat immature voice, "Teacher, Elder, don't worry. I will definitely fix the house as soon as possible."

After speaking, Zi Yan suddenly unfolded a pair of purple-golden Dou Qi wings on her back and slowly rose into the air.

"Sister, wait for me. I'll go with you."

After Zi Yan flew into the air, Han Yue's clear and lovely voice came from below.

Then, Han Yue also grew a pair of white Dou Qi wings behind her and followed Zi Yan.

"Han Yue has actually broken through to Dou King too!"

Su Qian had been focused on Zi Yan when he arrived, so he hadn't noticed Han Yue's cultivation level. Seeing Han Yue able to manifest Dou Qi wings, his heart was once again stirred.

"Han Yue has always been talented; it was just not discovered before!" Gu He explained naturally.

"Elder Gu He is being modest. It seems you have an extraordinary method of teaching your disciples. Other elders in the academy should really learn from you," Su Qian sincerely praised Gu He.

Hearing Su Qian's praise, Gu He smiled and said directly, "Elder overpraises me. What I am best at is merely alchemy, and these pills are precisely a crucial part of the cultivation process."

Hearing Gu He's words, Su Qian's eyes flashed with understanding, and he nodded slowly, "I was narrow-minded. For someone of Elder Gu He's status as a seventh-rank alchemist, doing these things indeed isn't difficult!"

After saying this, Su Qian suddenly took out a bunch of medicinal ingredients, his expression very serious, "Elder Gu He, please forgive my boldness, but I would like to request your help in refining two Ancestor Breakthrough Pills!"

"Ancestor Breakthrough Pills? With your cultivation level, Elder, these pills are of no use. It seems you're preparing them for other elders who have reached the peak of Dou Emperor," Gu He said lightly.

"Um!"

Su Qian nodded, smiling a bit awkwardly, "You're right, Elder Gu He. These are the ingredients that the elders at the peak of Dou Emperor in the academy have gone through a lot of trouble to obtain..."

"Since Elder has requested it, I will do my best." Having received the Fallen Heart Flame from the academy, Gu He felt somewhat indebted, so helping to refine a few sixth-rank pills was something he accepted very generously.

"Thank you, Elder Gu He!" Seeing that Gu He agreed to help refine the Ancestor Breakthrough Pills without much persuasion, Su Qian was somewhat excited and filled with gratitude towards Gu He.

...

After Su Qian left, Zi Yan and Han Yue finally returned to Gu He's courtyard before nightfall. However, this time, they did not come back empty-handed.

"Teacher, I'm back!"

In the courtyard above, Zi Yan's somewhat excited, immature voice reached Gu He's ears.

Gu He looked up and saw a bundle of wood about three to four meters wide and seven to eight meters long being held high above Zi Yan's head by her small palms.

The volume of these logs was dozens of times larger than Zi Yan's small frame, yet she still lifted them so effortlessly.

Next to her, Han Yue was only holding two logs as thick as an adult's thigh.

Seeing this stark contrast, a hint of surprise appeared on Gu He's face.

Under Gu He's gaze, Zi Yan, who was flying in the air, pushed her small hands forward, and the large bundle of logs fell towards the open space in the courtyard.

After placing the logs back on the ground, Zi Yan clapped her hands and confidently said to Gu He, "Teacher, this time I will build you a house much bigger than the previous one."

"Let's not rush that, I have something else to tell you!" Touching Zi Yan's head, Gu He said with a smile.

"Something else?" Zi Yan looked at Gu He with her big, puzzled eyes.

"Do you remember I once said that as long as you break through, I would reward you?" Gu He asked.

"Is there a reward?"

Hearing about this unexpected joy, Zi Yan was initially startled, then became somewhat expectant.

"Stand ready!"

"I'm going to transfer my power to you now!"

After saying this, Gu He directly placed his hand on Zi Yan's forehead.

"System, transfer power to Zi Yan!"

As Gu He's silent command was given, a massive amount of energy flowed from Gu He's palm into Zi Yan's body.

Having experienced a power transfer once before, Zi Yan's reaction this time was very calm. She immediately quieted her mind and began to focus on absorbing the energy Gu He was transferring.

...

"Sister is getting a reward again. I need to work hard too, striving to get a reward from the teacher next month!"

Standing by, Han Yue, seeing Zi Yan receive her reward, showed a strong envy in her eyes, while also feeling more motivated herself.

Before long, a muffled sound came from Zi Yan's body.

Her aura surged once again, advancing directly from a one-star Dou Emperor to a two-star Dou Emperor.

After reaching two-star Dou Emperor, Gu He's power transfer was not yet finished, as massive amounts of energy rapidly flowed into Zi Yan's body.

Then, Zi Yan's aura quickly climbed to the peak of two-star Dou Emperor and, like a breakthrough, successfully advanced to three-star Dou Emperor.

Four-star Dou Emperor!

It was only when her cultivation climbed to the peak of four-star Dou Emperor that Zi Yan's face began to redden, and sweat appeared on her body.

"Teacher, that's about enough. I can't hold on much longer."

Just as Zi Yan's words fell, another muffled sound came, and her cultivation level directly soared to five-star Dou Emperor.

At this time, Gu He also timely cut off the transfer of power.
