“The Universe Stabilizer is naturally not fake, for the Gu family, however, it is like holding a hot potato,” Gu Qingluan said playfully.

Lu Banian immediately grasped the situation. “I see! Although the Gu family is the foremost n.o.ble family in the Chengyuan Kingdom, they lack top-notch experts to protect them. With the possession of such a precious treasure, it will undoubtedly draw the attention of numerous covetous individuals. While people initially believed that the Gu family’s affiliation with the Island of No Return might serve as a deterrent, now that the truth has been unveiled, there is no reason for hesitation.”

Possessing the Universe Stabilizer was certainly risky.

The members of the Gu family had better pray that they could survive.

Once Lu Banian understood everything, a tremor ran through his heart.

This move was truly ruthless!

He glanced at Liu Meng standing beside Gu Qingluan and secretly speculated about their relationship. Liu Meng went to such great lengths for Miss Gu.

…..

Lu Banian probed, “The Universe Stabilizer is so precious. Possessing one is equivalent to having an extra Saint. Whether the Gu family or others obtain it, it would be a significant loss for Mr. Liu.”

Liu Meng cast a glance at Gu Qingluan. “As it has the potential to leave the Gu family dest.i.tute and even put their lives at risk, this deal is undeniably worth it.”

Lu Banian was secretly astonished.

Could it be that Liu Meng has feelings for Miss Gu?

“In truth, the Universe Stabilizer is not without flaws,” Gu Qingluan suddenly remarked.

“What do you mean?” Lu Banian was taken aback.

His understanding of the Universe Stabilizer was limited to hearsay. This was his first time seeing it, and the effects were only known through rumors.

“The Universe Stabilizer indeed allows a Heavenly-ranked expert to advance to the rank of a Saint. However, what people don’t know is that after consuming the Universe Stabilizer, one’s cultivation becomes fixed. There will be a ma.s.sive surge in cultivation, but no further progress can be made,” Gu Qingluan explained.

Lu Banian’s jaw dropped in astonishment. “Is… is this true? I’ve never heard of such a thing.”

Gu Qingluan smiled. “That’s because the Universe Stabilizer is incredibly difficult to refine. It has strict requirements for fire, alchemist skills, and raw materials. With the level of alchemists on the Cloud Plains Continent, it’s nearly impossible to produce.”

There was one thing she didn’t mention: while the Universe Stabilizer was invaluable on the Cloud Plains Continent, it held no appeal on the Tianji Continent.

After all, there were countless experts in the Tianji Continent, and becoming a Saint was just the first step. The Universe Stabilizer would halt the progress of the user’s cultivation, and cultivators in the Tianji Continent would never use it.

Regarding its challenging production, it was mainly related to the Cloud Plains Continent. The crucial component for making the Universe Stabilizer was an herb called Nenglu, which was plentiful in the Tianji Continent but nearly extinct in the Cloud Plains Continent. Without Nenglu, the likelihood of successfully creating the pill was extremely low.

Lu Banian’s expression became complex. “1 wonder if those who had used the Universe Stabilizer regretted their decision.”

“Regret was inevitable.”

Cultivation had no limits. When one reached a certain realm, one would only yearn for even higher realms.

“However, even if they were given another chance to choose, they would still choose to consume the Universe Stabilizer.”

Lu Banian nodded in agreement.

There were only a handful of individuals with the decree of sanct.i.ty in the Cloud Plains Continent. Becoming a Saint meant standing at the pinnacle of that world. Even if they no longer made any progress thereafter, it was enough to be desired.

Gu Qingluan flipped her delicate hand, revealing a porcelain white bottle in her palm.

“Lu Banian, thank you for your help today.”

Lu Banian quickly waved his hand. “It was the least I could do. You saved my sister’s life, and what I did was a trivial matter, not worth mentioning.”

“You risked offending the Gu family and even the Island of No Return to help me. How could that be a small matter? If you didn’t accept my grat.i.tude, I wouldn’t dare to trouble you again in the future.”

Lu Banian smiled helplessly. “Gu Miss, you were too polite.”

He accepted Gu Qingluan’s token of grat.i.tude.

Gu Qingluan said, “That’s right. I believed we would have many opportunities for cooperation in the future. It was getting late then, so we parted ways for that day.”

“Miss Gu, take care.”

Liu Meng followed her as they left.

“Mr. Liu, please wait a moment,” Lu Banian called out to him.

Liu Meng asked, “Is there something else, Young Master Lu?”

“The payment for auctioning the Universe Stabilizer hasn’t been given to you yet. Please wait here for a moment, I’ll have someone fetch it,” Lu Banian explained.

After a while, a servant came out holding a purple-gold card.

Liu Meng accepted the card and joined Gu Qingluan and her son in the carriage.

Bang!

A figure was sent flying and crashed into the wall, blood instantly spraying out, splattering on the cobblestone ground.

“Younger brother!” Gu Zhicheng roared, his eyes filled with fury as he attempted to rush over and save him, but several masked individuals blocked his path.

“Master of the Gu family, be wise and hand over the Universe Stabilizer, and we will spare both of your lives. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being ruthless,” one of the masked individuals rasped.

Gu Zhicheng glared at them, his anger flaring. “The Universe Stabilizer was acquired by the Gu family through the expenditure of 1800 Xuanling Crystal Hearts. Do you honestly believe you can s.n.a.t.c.h it away without paying a single cent? You’re living in a dream!” “If you don’t give in to our terms, you’ll have to face the consequences!” the masked person sneered.. “Prepare to die!”
