Chapter 31: Teacher, I Don’t Want You to Die!


    Upon hearing this, Yun Yun took the list that Gu He handed over and nced at it. She couldn''t help but sigh, "Truly befitting of a top-tier elixir among the sixth-grade ones, the required ingredients are notmon treasures."


    Gu He smiled silently at her words. If it weren''t for the preciousness of the ingredients, he would have refined it himself without seeking Yun Yun''s assistance.


    "Senior Gu He, I will gather these ingredients as soon as possible." After carefully examining the items on the list, Yun Yun looked at Gu He and spoke.


    While the ingredients for refining the Supreme Emperor Pill were indeed precious, given Yun Lan Sect''s umted resources over the years, gathering these ingredients shouldn''t be difficult.


    "Very well." Gu He nodded at her response and then said, "Sect Master, I hope you can gather these ingredients within a month. I will be going on a journey after that, and I hope you can have them ready by then."


    "Senior Gu He is going on another journey?" Upon hearing this, surprise flickered across Yun Yun''s face. Lately, why was Senior Gu He so fond of traveling?


    "Yes, I am nning to visit the Tagre Desert." Gu He didn''t hide the fact and truthfully answered. "The Tagre Desert!"


    Yun Yun was taken aback. The Tagre Desert was the territory of the Serpentfolk. Entering the Tagre Desert recklessly was an extremely dangerous endeavor.


    Gu He nodded calmly and continued, "I received information that there''s a Heavenly me hidden within the Tagre Desert."


    "Heavenly me!" {TL/N:Shit!These!Exmations!}


    Surprised by Gu He''s words, amazement appeared on Yun Yun''s face. She was astonished that a Heavenly me could be found in the Tagre Desert.


    Even though Yun Yun wasn''t an alchemist by background, she understood the value of such a treasure. No wonder Senior Gu He was venturing into the perilous Tagre Desert. Suddenly, Yun Yun recalled something, and a puzzled expression appeared on her face,


    "Senior Gu He, don''t you already possess a Heavenly me?" Yun Yun remembered that during thest time she refined the Gathering Qi Powder, Gu He had revealed a Heavenly me.


    Though Yun Yun didn''t have a deep understanding of Heavenly mes, she knew that a person could refine only one type of Heavenly me at most.


    Upon hearing Yun Yun''s words, Gu He was momentarily taken aback. He hadn''t expected her to make that connection. However, he had already prepared his response.


    "To be honest, I intend to obtain this Heavenly me on behalf of a disciple under my tutge." Gu He nced at the nearby Xiao Yi Xian, and a smile formed on his lips as he continued to speak calmly.


    "What?" Hearing Gu He''s words, Yun Yun thought she might have misheard.


    Her delicate face showed momentary perplexity and an expression of incredulity. "Elder Gu He, are you saying that you''re obtaining this heavenly me... for the disciples under your tutge?"


    "You mean to say?" Yun Yun could hardly believe what she was hearing.


    "Indeed, I am acquiring this heavenly me for the sake of my disciples," Gu He nodded, confirming his statement. Although it might be difficult to believe, Gu He was saying this openly.


    Because, in truth, he was obtaining the Green Core Lotus me for the benefit of his disciples. He even began to imagine what might happen once he gifted the me to his disciples.


    He had received a heavenly me himself for bestowing a me of Beast upon his disciple. What would happen if he gave them a heavenly me like the Green Core Lotus me?


    But he dared not dwell on those thoughts. In any case, he believed that the results would surely exceed his expectations.


    With the system''s mechanism for reimbursement in ce, he wouldn''t lose out.


    "Elder Gu He, are you serious?" Getting a direct response from Gu He, Yun Yun''s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at him.


    "Of course, I am serious." "The Sect Master must also understand what a heavenly me means for an alchemist."


    "If my disciples possess the Green Core Lotus me, their future aplishments will undoubtedly be extraordinary."


    "For a mentor, the greatest hope is to witness their disciples achieve remarkable sess in the future."


    "Naturally, I am no exception."


    "Since I have taken them as my disciples, it''s only natural for me to help them surpass their predecessors and shine even brighter."


    Gu He''s face carried an elegant smile, and his tone was filled with anticipation. "A mere heavenly me is nothingpared to the aplishments my disciples might achieve in the future. Even if I were to die, I would do so willingly as long as my disciples excel."


    Hearing Gu He''s words, Yun Yun was left speechless. Could Elder Gu He truly go to such lengths for the sake of his disciples? Handing over a heavenly me, a treasure of the world, to his disciples?


    Her gaze remained fixed on Gu He as she processed his words, feeling a sense of humility. As fellow mentors, she realized how far shegged behind him.


    On the other side, Nn Yanran was profoundly moved by Gu He''s deeply touching words. Observing his handsome appearance and refined demeanor, she found herself captivated.


    An idea sprouted in her heart—how wonderful it would be to have a mentor like Elder Gu He. With that thought, Nn Yanran couldn''t help but cast an envious nce at the nearby Xiao Yi Xian.


    Being able to study under the guidance of Elder Gu He was undoubtedly a blessing. "So gentle, considerate, and caring for his disciples. Plus, he looks so handsome.


    He''s practically perfect. Not to mention Yun Yun and Nn Yanran''s feelings. At this moment, the one most touched among those present is undoubtedly Xiao Yi Xian, the disciple behind Gu He.


    When she heard that Gu He was taking the Heavenly me for the sake of his disciples, she stood frozen in ce. His subsequent heartfelt words touched her even more deeply.


    Recalling the day when she became his disciple, he imparted his insights and experiences as a sixth-grade alchemist, even imparting


    profound cultivation methods without hesitation.


    He even generously gifted her with extraordinary items like the Flight Technique. Looking back, since bing his disciple, he had never been stingy but rather exceedingly generous.


    Who else''s master could do such things? Reflecting on these memories, tears welled up in Xiao Yi Xian''s crystal-clear eyes. The next moment, she couldn''t hold back and threw herself into Gu He''s embrace, crying out, ''Master, I don''t want you to die!''


    "Uh..." Seeing Xiao Yi Xian in his arms, Gu He was slightly stunned, then revealed a warm smile. "Silly girl, why are you crying? Haven''t you seen you all grow up? How could I bear to die?"


    Afterward, with Gu He''sforting words, Xiao Yi Xian stopped crying. When she looked up, her eyes were already teary. "Alright, stop crying. Do you want the Sect Master and Senior Sister Yanran to make fun of you?" Gu He yfully said, ruffling Xiao Yi Xian''s slightly disheveled hair.
