“Great Origin Pill?!”
Both women were utterly shocked, their faces full of disbelief.
They had only ever taken Small Origin Pills, and Song Ruyu had never even heard of an Origin Pill, let alone a Great Origin Pill.
Yun Ruge, having spent much time by Wu Feiyan’s side, had heard Wu Feiyan mention Origin Pills and knew their effects were far stronger than Small Origin Pills, but she was well aware she’d never get such a precious pill from Wu Feiyan.
It seemed that, aside from Wu Feiyan herself, only the three great elders had ever taken Origin Pills.
Yet Ye Chen claimed his pill was a Great Origin Pill.
Judging by the name, a Great Origin Pill was surely even stronger than a regular Origin Pill.
Even an Origin Pill was beyond their wildest dreams, a Great Origin Pill was something they dared not even imagine.
Seeing their stunned expressions, Ye Chen smiled, “As the name suggests, the Great Origin Pill is indeed stronger than a regular Origin Pill, for your current cultivation, this pill should provide a significant boost.”
Yun Ruge and Song Ruyu were so shocked they couldn’t speak, in the Po Qing Society, pills were Wu Feiyan’s greatest reward, Song Ruyu, since her enlightenment, had only received a few Small Origin Pills, one at a time, and each time she had to kneel in gratitude, even if she never met Wu Feiyan, she had to kneel before the person delivering the pill, thanking Wu Feiyan’s great kindness.
Yun Ruge was slightly better off, as a countess, she could receive a pill from Wu Feiyan every six months. But the quantity was still small, a few Small Origin Pills a year at most.
On rare occasions, when she accomplished a major task and Wu Feiyan was in a good mood, she might reward three or five pills, the absolute maximum.
But Ye Chen’s approach was entirely different from Wu Feiyan’s, neither woman had truly served Ye Chen yet, and he had essentially protected them, settling them here, providing a safe, quiet, undisturbed cultivation environment.
Now, he was even proactively giving them pills, and not just any pills, but Great Origin Pills, countless times stronger than Small Origin Pills.
Seeing their dumbfounded looks, Ye Chen smiled lightly, “No need to be so shocked, I happen to know a bit about alchemy and I’m not stingy with pills, both of you have endured great hardships to reach enlightenment, I hope these two pills can help you.”
Yun Ruge, deeply moved, said respectfully, “Mr. Ye, your kindness is as heavy as a mountain, I’ll never forget it!”
Song Ruyu’s eyes reddened, tears streaming uncontrollably, in her short twenty-odd years, she had never felt truly cared for.
The Song family was out of the question, she was merely the result of her father’s dalliances, her purpose only to be used by the Song family to curry favour with the Wu family.
As for Wu Feiyan and the Wu family, none of them genuinely cared for her.
All the Wu family cared about was how she could better serve them.
So now, looking back, the only person who truly cared for her was likely Ye Chen alone.
Calming herself slightly, she choked out, “Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your great kindness, Ruyu will devote her life to you!”
Ye Chen laughed, “I’m giving you these pills to help you progress quickly, not to make you pledge loyalty, let’s put that aside for now, take the pills, I’ll guide you to properly absorb their spiritual energy.”
