Chapter 496 - 200: Lost a 2 vs 1 Battle, Can You Even Play?_1
Ling Zixiao sat cross-legged on the bed.
After taking the Frost Elixir, strands of cold air emanated and flowed around her body.
Lu Changsheng quietly observed the effects of the Frost Elixir on Ling Zixiao.
After a long time, he came to a conclusion.
There were effects, but indeed, they were quite average.
Compared to the time and cost spent, it was truly disappointing.
"Unless there is a Third Rank elixir, or some rare yin cold attribute elixir medicines."
"Otherwise, wanting to regulate and nourish the body and heal the withered meridians and dantian is too difficult."
Lu Changsheng sighed softly in his heart.
However, he had not given up.
Once Ling Zixiao finished assimilating the elixir, he passed on the "Tender Embrace Technique," a Dual Cultivation Technique, to her.
This technique belonged to the higher tier of Dual Cultivation Techniques.
Both the male and female participants would benefit.
It would definitely help in Ling Zixiao’s recovery.
Ling Zixiao saw that Lu Changsheng had taken out another secret Dual Cultivation Technique and didn’t quite know what to say.
She wondered if Lu Changsheng had obtained some kind of romantic inheritance.
Why were all his techniques related to Dual Cultivation?
However, she did not ask much more.
Under Lu Changsheng’s guidance, she quickly understood the technique.
Straightaway, the two began their cultivation.
Afterward!
"Lu Lang, I can’t do this anymore..."
Just once, and Ling Zixiao’s face turned crimson, like a puddle of mud, nestling in Lu Changsheng’s embrace.
On the one hand, the effet of the Tender Embrace Technique was rather intense.
On the other hand, her current physical condition was truly very bad.
After her Dragon Roar Origin Source was depleted and she suffered from the backlash of the Dragon Roar Physique, her body was extremely weak.
If said that before, she still counted as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator,
and could exert a tenth or twentieth of her mana.
Then now, her strength wasn’t even comparable to some Energy Refinement Late Stage cultivators.
"It’s alright, take it slow."
Lu Changsheng’s palms were gentle and soft, his soothing voice comforting the beauty.
He knew that healing was not something to be rushed.
"Lu Lang, in a few more days, you will be going back. How do you plan to arrange for the sisters at Treasure Elixir Pavilion?"
Ling Zixiao snuggled in Lu Changsheng’s arms, whispering.
"My encounters with them were fleeting, what plans could I possibly have?"
Lu Changsheng felt puzzled upon hearing this.
"Huh? My lord, didn’t you go to the Treasure Elixir Pavilion with the intention of taking the Li sisters under your wing?"
"I see that both sisters are quite pretty, especially the elder sister, who’s not only extremely beautiful but also a high-quality alchemist."
"With your tutelage and guidance, Lu Lang, I reckon it won’t be an issue for her to become a Second Rank alchemist in the future."
Ling Zixiao drew circles on Lu Changsheng’s chest with her slender jade fingers, smiling as she spoke.
Although through the days they spent together, her perception of Lu Changsheng had changed,
she still believed that Lu Changsheng’s choice to settle in the Treasure Elixir Pavilion was because he fancied the Li sisters.
"What nonsense are you speaking? Am I the kind of man to take in every woman I see?"
"I just saw that the two girls had it hard, and as it happened, I lent them a hand."
Lu Changsheng was somewhat speechless.
He had a good impression of the two sisters,
but he only regarded them as juniors.
Besides, who would consider taking home anyone they meet to have children?
Although he had thought about it when he first saw Li Xingruo,
it was just a fleeting thought.
"Yes, indeed, I also find the sisters pitiable, orphaned and with no one to rely on."
"If they could be taken in by you, Lu Lang, they would then have someone to rely on."
Ling Zixiao’s skin was rosy and delicate, and she said with a half-smile.
"It seems you’re getting spirited again!"
When he heard this, Lu Changsheng immediately pressed her beneath him.
"No, my lord, have mercy..." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ling Zixiao’s call turned into a startled cry, her luscious voice beginning to falter,
soon becoming intermittent and indistinct.
...
Three days later.
"Master Ye, you’ve been a great help."
That day, Lu Changsheng and Li Xingruo came to the ’Hundred Arts Hall’ in Immortal City for their assessment registration.
There weren’t many people.
After all, the number of Second Rank artisans in the entire Immortal City was limited.
Furthermore, not every Second Rank artisan would become the featured attraction of a particular shop and come to participate in the assessment registration.
"Is this Master Ye Fan?"
As soon as Lu Changsheng and Li Xingruo entered the Alchemy Hall, someone recognized him and greeted him politely.
"This is the owner of Little Dan Tower, a Second Rank lower-tier alchemist."
Li Xingruo introduced the man to Lu Changsheng via telepathic message.
"Indeed, it’s Ye. A pleasure to meet you."
Lu Changsheng did not know the person,
but you don’t slap a smiling face.
Seeing that the other party was so polite, he naturally returned the greeting with courtesy.
During the process, several more alchemists and elixir shop owners came to chat and greet Lu Changsheng,
expressing interest in having tea together and sharing their understanding of alchemy.
After all, in the span of three months, Lu Changsheng had earned a modest reputation in Immortal City.
Not only could he refine Second Rank superior elixir medicines,
but most of the elixirs he refined were of fine and supreme quality.
This was quite astonishing.
Lu Changsheng responded courteously to all of them,
and afterward, he indicated that he would go into seclusion for cultivation after some time.
If they knew any Second Rank alchemists, they could introduce him or her to come to Treasure Elixir Pavilion to become a featured alchemist.
Upon hearing this, several alchemists mentioned that they had friends who might inquire on behalf of Lu Changsheng.
"Indeed, this is the benefit of having a skill; you won’t starve anywhere."
"If the skill is notable and reaches Second Rank, you can make a living anywhere."
After chatting with these people for a while, Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
Between the previous visits from the Li Family,
and the current enthusiastic networking,
he deeply realized the benefits that come with having a perfected skill.
"Master Ye, thank you very much."
Li Xingruo, who was beside him, was moved by the scene and thanked Lu Changsheng.
