<h4>Chapter 1073: Chapter 1073: Ruan Hao’s Obsession</h4>


    Gu Zhiqi listened to Lok Gui’s words and asked, "What’s up?"


    Lu Yuanjiang immediately waved his hand, "No, no." But then he quickly corrected himself, "Yes, yes, there is something. Miss Gu, you saved our lives and helped us with alchemy, yet we haven’t formally thanked you."


    Li Chunhua immediately chimed in, "We were thinking of inviting Miss Gu for a meal. Miss Gu, are you free tomorrow?"


    Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi hesitated slightly.


    A dinner invitation?


    A meal from the Medical Alliance cafeteria?


    Before Gu Zhiqi could speak, Lok Gui quickly added, "Miss Gu, Aunt Chun Hua’s cooking is excellent, much better than the food from the Medical Alliance cafeteria!"


    Lok Gui didn’t know that Gu Zhiqi enjoyed good food, but he thought the Medical Alliance cafeteria’s food was hard to swallow, and assumed no one would like to eat there all the time, so he said this.


    However, his words actually hit the mark. After listening, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes lit up a bit as she looked at Li Chunhua, "I’m free tomorrow."


    Upon hearing this, Li Chunhua was delighted and cheerfully said, "Great, then tomorrow evening, Miss Gu, pleasee to my ce."


    Gu Zhiqi nodded after hearing it, and then asked Li Chunhua, "Can I bring someone else?"


    Sister Yun Yi hade to the Medical Alliance out of concern for her, so it would be right to bring her along for the meal.


    Li Chunhua nodded repeatedly, "Of course you can."


    Thus, the dinner arrangement was settled.


    The group continued to chat as they walked forward.


    As they were walking, the usually quiet Ruan Hao suddenly spoke up, "Miss Gu."


    Gu Zhiqi turned her gaze to Ruan Hao.


    With a mushroom cut, Ruan Hao looked at Gu Zhiqi seriously and asked, "May I ask you a question about alchemy?"


    As soon as Ruan Hao said this, Lu Yuanjiang, Lok Gui, and Li Chunhua all brightened up, eagerly looking at Gu Zhiqi.


    Gu Zhiqi gave a slight nod.


    Ruan Hao asked, "I’ve tried the method you taught many times and used a high-pressure cooker every time. Why doesn’t it explode?"


    Gu Zhiqi: "..."


    "Also, every time I use the high-pressure cooker, the pills produced eitherck quality or are waste pills." Ruan Hao said with a bit of distress, scratching his head, looking very puzzled.


    Gu Zhiqi: "..."


    After a long silence, Gu Zhiqi gently patted Ruan Hao’s shoulder, "In the future, just use the pill furnace."


    Ruan Hao listened, not understanding.


    Could it be that his level is not yet high enough to use a high-pressure cooker?


    Ruan Hao fell into deep thought, and a few secondster, with a serious and earnest look at Gu Zhiqi, he said, "I’ll keep working hard and aim to use the high-pressure cooker soon!"


    Gu Zhiqi: ?


    What sort of conclusion did this kide to?


    However, reaching the level of producing high-quality elixirs with a high-pressure cooker isn’t a bad thing, so Gu Zhiqi didn’t exin further.

    The next day, Gu Zhiqi took Yun Yi to Li Chunhua’s ce and enjoyed a meal, also answering some questions the group had about alchemy.


    Over the following two days, Gu Zhiqi rarely left Gu Xiyue’s courtyard, barely stepping out of the room.


    On the third day, news arrived from Lok Gui, saying that the people whose cultivation levels were taken by "Qi Rui" had all been found.


    Altogether, 81 people had their cultivation levels taken, requiring a veryrge formation to be drawn.


    Therger the formation, the more Yuan Force needed to be infused, requiring the help of four people this time.


    As soon as she received Lok Gui’s message, Gu Zhiqi went to find Gu Xiyue.
