Immortal Talent Upgrading Pill

"This gift is very special, so you have to promise me to never talk about this to anyone." Said Song Yu Qi in a serious tone.

Tan Yanyan and Xia Zilin looked strangely at her. They wondered what kind of gift could require them to make such a promise. But in the end, Song Yu Qi was their dear sister so they trusted her.

"We promise to not tell anyone." They both said.

Song Yu Qi nodded, took out two Immortal Talent Upgrading Pills from her inventory, and placed them on the table.

The two girls were immediately mesmerized by the multicolored pills and the pleasant smell they gave off.

"What kind of pill is that?" Asked Xia Zilin, curious.

Song Yu Qi got closer to them before whispering:

"This is an Immortal Talent Upgrading Pill, it will increase your cultivation talent to A-grade."

"WHAT?!" Exclaimed Xia Zilin, shocked by what she just heard.

"Shhh! No one must know about this." Said Song Yu Qi, putting her index finger over her mouth.

"S-Sister Yu Qi, are you sure about this? This kind of pill is not supposed to exist." Said Xia Zilin. Her father was an Alchemist so she knew a lot of different pills.

"That's right. If this kind of pill really existed, the whole world would fight for them." Said Tan Yanyan, nodding.

"I really trust you two but I still can't tell you how I obtained these pills. However, I can assure you that they are real." Said Song Yu Qi, sighing.

"Wait, is that why your cultivation speed is so much higher than ours? Is it because your cultivation talent is actually far higher than ours?" Asked Tan Yanyan, dumbfounded.

"That's right." Confirmed Song Yu Qi without telling them about her S-grade talent.

The two girls became pale when they heard this. A pill that could upgrade the talent of a cultivator was not supposed to exist! How did their Sister Yu Qi get them? And she even had more than one of them!

"B-But why are you giving us the pills? I-I mean if you give them to the sect you could probably directly obtain a position of Grand Elder or even higher." Asked Tan Yanyan.

"I'm not interested in this position. I am giving you the pills because you two are the most precious people in this world to me, and I want the three of us to reach the pinnacle of cultivation together." Answered Song Yu Qi, sincerely.

Giving the pills to the sect was a bad idea anyway. They would probably threaten her to reveal how she obtained them, and if she refused, she didn't want to imagine what they would do to her...

Tan Yanyan and Xia Zilin were very moved by Song Yu Qi's declaration so they made up their mind. They both knelt in front of Song Yu Qi and said:

"Sister Yu Qi, thank you so much for this opportunity. I swear to always be loyal to you and to never betray you. Even if it cost my life, I would never tell anyone about this." Said Tan Yanyan.

"Sister Yu Qi, thank you, thank you, thank you! I also swear to always be loyal to you and to never betray you. Even if people torture me or try to kill me, I would never tell anyone about this." Said Xia Zilin.

Song Yu Qi immediately helped her two sisters up. She didn't want to see them kneel in front of her as she didn't give them the pills to gain their loyalty or to make them her lackeys but because she loved them.

"Sister Zilin, Sister Yanyan, don't kneel. The three of us are sisters and we are all equal." She said.

Tan Yanyan and Xia Zilin nodded in understanding. After getting up, they each took an Immortal Talent Upgrading Pill from the table and stared at it.

"S-Sister Yu Qi, are you sure that we can take these pills?" Asked Xia Zilin. It was such a precious pill that she felt that she was not worth it.

"Of course, I'm sure. So, don't hesitate anymore and eat it." Answered Song Yu Qi without hesitation.

The two girls looked at each other for a second before putting the pill in their mouth and swallowing it.

At first, nothing noticeable happened. However, a few seconds later, they both suddenly widened their eyes.

"T-This..." Said Tan Yanyan, speechless.

"T-This is amazing!" Exclaimed Xia Zilin, dumbfounded by the effect of the pill.

Like Song Yu Qi, they could now clearly feel the Spiritual Energy around them. The difference between A-grade talent and D-grade talent was huge, as huge as the difference between Heaven and Earth.

Tan Yanyan and Xia Zilin had tears in their eyes as they threw themselves into Song Yu Qi's arms to hug her. Reaching the apex of cultivation was the goal of every cultivator and while previously it was only a vague dream for the two of them, they knew that now, it was something they could achieve.

"Thank you. Thank you so much Sister Yu Qi." Said Tan Yanyan.

"I can't believe this is real. Thank you, Sister Yu Qi, I swear to not disappoint you." Said Xia Zilin.

Song Yu Qi patted their heads and smiled.

"Alright, alright. Now, let's focus on our cultivation!" She said.

...

Four days later, Tan Yanyan and Xia Zilin excitedly left their bedrooms to join Song Yu Qi who was preparing breakfast in the dining room.

"Sister Yu Qi, I have finally reached the third level of the Eight Meridians Opening realm!" Exclaimed Tan Yanyan.

"Me too! This cultivation speed is amazing!" Exclaimed Xia Zilin.

The past few days, the two girls had been cultivating non-stop. They were so excited by their new cultivation speed that they had barely celebrated Xia Zilin's birthday and had preferred to spend the whole day cultivating.

Hearing them, Song Yu Qi smiled widely. Now, the three of them could finally do sect missions together, and it was only the beginning.
