Jiang Ruoxu was quite surprised.
"Blood Refining Pill? Can it enhance my talent?"
[That's right. The Blood Refining Pill is a top-tier medicinal pill that can cleanse and strengthen one's bones and marrow. As the saying goes, all medicines have some toxicity. Ordinary pills come with side effects after consumption. But this is a perfect Blood Refining Pill, and it won't harm your body after use.]
[However, the method and techniques for refining this perfect pill have long been lost. Where did your brother find this perfect Blood Refining Pill?]
It was clear that Jiang Ruoxu's 'Ring Old Grandma' was full of doubt.
"Master, I really don't want his stuff!"
He was a man with pride. Earlier, Jiang Che mercilessly beat him up, making him lose all face. Now, was he supposed to grovel and accept his gift?
Was that even a serious thought?
His pride wouldn't allow him to do such a thing.
[You foolish disciple, don't you understand the value of a perfect Blood Refining Pill? You must get it!]
Jiang Ruoxu felt quite desperate in his heart. He already thought his bone and talent were good enough. Why would he need to take a pill to enhance his potential?
Moreover... this pill was from Jiang Che. If he took it directly... it would make him look pathetic.
Jiang Che glanced at him, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. The kid seemed distracted... was he talking to someone?
But then his gaze was drawn to the ancient ring on Jiang Ruoxu's finger.
"Oh? A ring? Could there be an old grandpa inside it?"
Of course, this was just his speculation.
The ring looked like an antique. Who would wear something like that normally? Especially not a fifteen-year-old kid.
Even if there wasn't an old grandpa inside, it was probably something similar to Lin Yu's jade pendant—a kind of cheat item.
...
"Oh? Looks like you're not planning to accept it, huh?"
Jiang Che saw that Jiang Ruoxu was about to reach out, so he quickly withdrew the pill he had intended to give away.
I offered it to you, but you refused. Now that you want it... forget it, I'm not giving it to you.
As expected, Jiang Ruoxu's face turned black instantly.
He had just decided to put aside his dignity and accept Jiang Che's gift, but instead, the guy took it back.
Damn it! Was there a reason to take back something that was already given?
He realized... this cousin of his was really here to mess with his mind.
Jiang Ruoxu stuffed his hands into his pockets and turned his head away. "Hmph~ Who would want your pill?"
He was a genius, a true prodigy, with no rivals!
His innate arrogance made him unconsciously smirk, but the next second, his lips straightened back to normal—he had been beaten enough.
[Are you stupid? Hurry up and accept the perfect Blood Refining Pill. With this pill, you won't need the medicinal baths I originally planned for you. This one pill could save you five years of hard work!]
Your current qualifications are strong, but it's still very difficult to break through the limits of Tianjing. However, with this Blood Refining Pill, you can absolutely reach the Po Tian stage... or even the realm of Tong Shen!
Jiang Ruoxu's Ring Old Grandma started piling on the pressure again.
It immediately made Jiang Ruoxu lose his composure.
He regretted pretending so much. Why not just accept the gift honestly in the first place?
Now he was in a difficult position...
"Brother... I actually... kind of want it"
Jiang Ruoxu lowered his head and stretched out his hand... embarrassed as if he had just pulled down his pants and started spraying poop everywhere.
"Oh? Seems like you're quite torn, huh? Earlier you didn't want it, right?"
Jiang Che's gaze unconsciously fell on the ring on Jiang Ruoxu's hand. He felt he had pretty much figured it out.
Jiang Ruoxu probably really had an old grandpa inside his ring, otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly changed his mind!
He understood his silly and overly dramatic little brother pretty well. Getting this guy to surrender willingly... was harder than reaching the heavens.
There must be someone advising him behind the scenes or some kind of system guiding him.
Jiang Che thought a lot. He truly had the intuition of a big villain. He guessed around 70-80% correctly.
"Ruoxu, it seems your knowledge is quite extensive, to recognize the Blood Refining Pill"
Hearing Jiang Che's compliment, Jiang Ruoxu felt quite satisfied. "Of course, I know what the Blood Refining Pill is"
In reality, he didn't know anything about the Blood Refining Pill. But to act like a know-it-all, he couldn't help but... smirk again.
Clearly, he had been played by Jiang Che.
From the moment he opened his mouth, Jiang Che could confirm that this little brother of his likely had some guiding figure like an old grandpa in his ring.
The little brother was too naive, just like a fresh graduate.
"I'll let you smirk! Want to smirk again, huh?"
Jiang Che threw another punch at Jiang Ruoxu's face, completely breaking the routine!
To be honest, the feeling of pummeling his little brother was pretty satisfying.
Inadvertently, Jiang Che pinched the ring on Jiang Ruoxu's finger lightly twice.
The ring flashed a red light in an instant.
No response.
Jiang Che had a space jade pendant, and everything he touched could be stored inside. But he couldn't take Jiang Ruoxu's ring.
If he had an 80% certainty before, now he could be 100% sure. Jiang Ruoxu definitely had an old grandpa by his side.
......
Jiang Che gave Jiang Ruoxu another beating and then clapped his hands clean.
"The Blood Refining Pill was refined by my master. It can cleanse and strengthen one's bones and marrow, greatly enhancing one's innate talent. But before using it... you need to work out your muscles and bones first"
"So I was just working out your muscles and bones for you earlier"
Jiang Che grinned, giving himself a noble reason for pummeling his little brother, while also acknowledging openly... that he indeed had a powerful master backing him.
Even Jiang Ruoxu, who was beaten into a pig's head, started to question his life. Holding the Blood Refining Pill in his hand, could it be that what his cousin said was true?
Was the reason he got beaten up... actually to help him?
The Old Grandma in the ring was speechless, but she didn't say anything.
What a load of nonsense about promoting blood circulation and reducing swelling. Others might not see through it... but could she not?
This young man just wanted to give his disciple a good beating.
But at the same time, she also pondered over what Jiang Che said earlier.
His master... actually managed to refine a perfect-quality Blood Refining Pill?
Then his master... must have at least reached the Po Tian stage, or possibly even stepped into the half-step realm of Tong Shen... or the true realm of Tong Shen!
If there really was a powerful figure like a Tong Shen realm master, then it could probably help her get out of her current predicament.
She had long given up and was ready to just linger on inside the Soul Nourishing Ring. But Jiang Che's appearance... gave her hope.

s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money. Then one day, he suddenly realized—he had become invincible. Enough, enough! Stop giving me more!

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
