Chapter 1885: Let Me Retrieve The Pill!

"Your grandfather doesn’t know that Saul went to Porthampton, but if he finds out about this, it’ll be troublesome!"
Watson muttered.
"Since we can’t let my grandfather know, then we can only seek help from the Gomez family. After all, this information was provided by them," Wilford continued.
"Yamino Gomez has already left the country. I don’t know when he’ll be back. Even if I ask him now, he won’t be able to solve any problems..." Watson said with a broken expression.
"Oh..."
Wilford was instantly speechless after hearing this sentence. At this time, he could not think of any way to save Saul from Connor’s hands.
"A single misstep has caused a thousand years of regret. I should not have let Saul go to Porthampton back then. I was too greedy..."
Watson could not help but sigh softly.
Wilford hesitated for a moment before asking softly, "Father, what do you plan to do now?"
"Hm..."
Watson couldn’t help but take a deep breath when he heard this. Then, he said in a low voice, "Since Connor did not kill your brother directly, it means that he does not have the intention to kill Leo Canter. We can only wait patiently for Yamino Gomez to return before thinking of a way to save your brother..."
"That’s the only way..."
Wilford naturally couldn’t think of any other way, so he nodded helplessly.
Although the power of the Zook family was in Watson’s hands, the most important trump card of the Zook family was the expert beside Hudson Zook. At this time, Watson was not qualified to use this trump card at all.
In addition, the relationship between Watson and Hudson was still very subtle. Hudson himself did not agree to Saul going to Porthampton. All of this had been secretly manipulated by Watson. He naturally did not have the courage to tell Hudson the actual situation.
Once Hudson found out that something had happened to Saul in Porthampton, Watson’s position as the family head might be lost. Therefore, even if Watson was worried about Saul’s safety, he could not do anything. He could only wait for Yamino Gomez to return and find a solution.
...
Connor originally thought that he could get some information about the crystal pendant from Stellan, but what he did not expect was that Stellan actually did not know what was going on.
However, Connor chose not to kill Stellan and Saul because he knew that these two people could play a very important role in his next fight against the Zook family.
After separating from Kyle and the others, he returned to Josiah’s house.
Josiah and Diana were refining the Soul Returning Pill while Connor went to Freya’s ward to accompany her.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed.
In these ten days, Connor spent most of his time in Freya’s ward while Thomas and Kyle were stabilizing the situation in the four provinces.
Now that the Empire World Corporation was under Thomas’s control again, the family companies in the four provinces had also started new collaborations with the corporation.
With Thomas and Kyle around, Connor didn’t need to worry about the four provinces. Now, he was most worried about whether Josiah could successfully refine the Soul Returning Pill.
"Mr. McDonald, Mr. McDonald!"
Diana rushed into Freya’s room and shouted excitedly at Connor.
Connor stood up after seeing Diana and asked, "What’s wrong? Did you refine the Soul Returning Pill?"
"Yes, it’s done now..."
Diana hurriedly said.
"That’s great. Quickly bring me to take a look..."
Connor did not expect Josiah to actually refine the Soul Returning Pill so smoothly.
After that, Diana brought Connor into the pill refining room.
At this moment, Josiah was staring excitedly at the alchemy furnace in front of him.
Connor stepped forward. "Mr. Murphy, where is the Soul Returning Pill?"
"Mr. McDonald, don’t be anxious. The Soul Returning Pill is still in the pill furnace and can’t be taken out for the time being!"
Josiah muttered back.
Connor couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard this. Then, he frowned and asked, "Since the Soul Returning Pill has already been refined, why can’t we take it out?"
"If you want to take out the Soul Returning Pill, you still need one last step!" Josiah said in a low voice.
"Mr. Murphy, don’t keep me in suspense. What else do you need to do? Or what can I do now? Just tell me!"
Connor shouted anxiously.
The expression on Josiah’s face was a little strange, and then he said helplessly, "Mr. McDonald, the Soul Returning Pill is a divine-grade pill. This kind of pill itself is not allowed to appear under normal circumstances. Therefore, if you want to take the Soul Returning Pill out of this pill furnace, you may suffer the wrath of heaven. In the words of the ancient book, you need a Pill Tribulation!"
"Pill Tribulation?"
Connor’s expression was a little puzzled when he heard this.
"That’s right, a Pill Tribulation!" Josiah nodded gently and continued, "If one wishes to take out the ’Soul Returning Pill’ from the pill refining furnace, the person who takes the pill will have to experience a pain that is a hundred times greater than the pain that these medicinal ingredients endure during the refining process. Therefore, it is impossible for an ordinary person to take out the ’Soul Returning Pill’..."
"You mean to say that you need to experience some pain before you can take out the pill, right?"
Connor asked Josiah.
"Mr. McDonald, you can understand it that way. However, the pain I experienced when extracting the pill was not ordinary. This old man is just an ordinary person, so this kind of pain might not be something I can withstand!"
Josiah paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, I only have one chance to retrieve the pill. If I fail, the Soul Returning Pill will shatter, so I don’t dare to try so rashly!"
"Then let me retrieve the pill!"
Connor replied without thinking.
"Mr. McDonald, you have to think carefully. The pain of taking the pill is really not something that ordinary people can withstand, and on top of that, you only have one chance to retrieve it. I think it is safer to wait until Master Yarrell returns before retrieving the pill. After all, he refined the Essence Cultivating Pill for you back then. He should be able to withstand this pain!" Josiah hurriedly advised.
"Do you also need to experience this kind of pain when refining the Essence Cultivating Pill?" Connor asked.
Josiah nodded lightly. "Of course. The Essence Cultivating Pill and the Soul Returning Pill are both divine-grade medicinal pills. Naturally, one needs to experience a Pill Tribulation when retrieving them!"
