Chapter 25: A Corner of the Leng Family
Leng Family Compound.
"Sis, this is for you."
"With this immortal herb, you should have no problem reaching the limit. Our Leng family still needs a Limit Douluo to uphold our reputation."
Su Jiu's words left Leng Yaozhu speechless, and she rolled her eyes at him.
Ah Jiu, you've already defeated Yun Ming. Isn't the title of the number one in the continent enough to uphold the reputation of our Leng family?
If our long-buried father knew about this, wouldn't his coffin lid fly straight up to the sky?
At the same time, she knew that the jade box in Su Jiu's hand contained the "Waiting Through Autumn Water Dew," a true immortal herb that had seized the essence of heaven and earth!
Although this thing doesn't help her much, her inner knot has long been untied, and her only obsession is the man in front of her. Through several years of hard training, she is more than capable of reaching the limit.
But since this was a gift from Su Jiu, it has a different meaning.
She carefully kept every little gift she received from him, and she even took this immortal herb right in front of Su Jiu.
Traditionally, one drop is taken orally and two drops are taken into the eyes.
It has a refreshing and slightly cool taste, with no flavor, like autumn dew, and carries a natural fragrance.
Before long, she felt a refreshing coolness in her mind, like surfing on a hot summer beach, a feeling of clarity and comfort instantly sweeping over her entire body.
This was a manifestation of Leng Yaozhu's surging spiritual power. She broke through the bottleneck of the mid-stage of the Spirit Realm and stepped into the late stage in one fell swoop. Only then did the upward momentum slowly stop.
Su Jiu smiled and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge weight had finally been lifted from her heart.
Hopefully, Yaozhu's slow reaction time has improved, and we don't need to worry about dementia for now.
Su Jiu felt no regret about the Dew of Oblivion, for he had something more precious than it.
AI Aqi, who hunts with sharp bees!
He's never seriously cultivated his mental power. If there's any way or shortcut to cultivating mental power...
"A martial soul that cannot cultivate spiritual power is not a good martial soul," Su Jiu said.
The other immortal herb in his hand, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, is even more helpful than the former, assisting him in tempering his "Invincible Vajra" body. The exact extent of its improvement will only be known after he consumes it.
"mua~"
Su Jiu froze for a second, then his face turned bright red, and even the tips of his ears became half-filled with blood.
For example, if he wasn't mistaken, just now, just now, wasn't it Yaozhu who kissed him, not on the cheek, but on the lips?
My first kiss is gone!
The texture is still there, like a dragonfly skimming the water, with a faint lime scent, just like the lime soda he usually loves to drink.
"Yao, Yao-jie, this..."
"What? I used to kiss you all the time when you were little. Now that you're all grown up, do you think your older sister is too old and you don't like her anymore?"
Leng Yaozhu crossed her arms, displaying the perfect curves of her mountain peaks, and kept moving closer, one corner of her mouth pouting high, looking as if she was a little angry.
The older sister exudes a strong sense of pressure.
"No, no, in my eyes, Yaozhu will always be 18. How could she grow old? You're such a wonderful and beautiful sister, how could I not like you? Having such a wonderful sister is one of the greatest blessings in my life!"
Su Jiu hurriedly waved his hand to explain, his usual composure and confidence completely gone, replaced by the blank stare of a naive and inexperienced young man. Seeing this, Leng Yaozhu felt a surge of desire, wishing she could devour this delicious-looking dish right there and then.
"You're the most talkative person around me. I'd give this answer a 9 out of 10, and I'll keep the last point for myself."
"Besides, I don't have anything here that you'd like, consider this a thank you gift. Of course, if you think it's unfair, you can kiss me back, or even make more outrageous requests. I'm open to anything you ask!"
Faced with Leng Yaozhu's flirting, Su Jiu's rationality basically vanished completely.
Ah Qi: The original body has lost its sanity. It is recommended that Ah Qi temporarily take over...
This is no gentle, aloof girl next door; she's clearly a top-tier succubus, every smile and frown exuding a deadly, alluring charm, as if this passive ability was something she was born with.
"Hey! Old Su, I'm here to collect my allowance for this month. You can't go back on your word!"
Just then, Na'er walked in, ignoring the ambiguous atmosphere in front of her. She ran straight to Su Jiu and extended her hand without any hesitation.
At the same time, Na'er pulled Su Jiu back to his senses. Reason once again took hold of his eyes, and when he looked at Na'er, his eyes even carried a hint of gratitude.
Having raised the dragon for many days, it saved me from "fire and water" today.
This also made Su Jiu realize for the first time that Na'er was capable of more than just eating and exploding his gold coins.
Na'er: "..."
(▼ヘ▼#)
My allowance will increase tenfold this month!
Naer: .ヽ(^Д^*)/.
Leng Yaozhu covered her lips and chuckled, saying
"Haha~ Ah Jiu, I was just 'joking' with you, you didn't take it seriously, did you?"
She left behind this "joke" and turned to leave. She knew that getting Su Jiu to turn her from her sister into his wife couldn't be rushed; she would have to take it slow and steady.
Where Su Jiu couldn't see, she gently licked the corner of her mouth, tasting the cream cake, and noted down Su Jiu's recent preferences.
"Old Su, you didn't give me the wrong thing, did you?"
Na'er looked at Su Jiu warily, but clutched the thick stack of federal banknotes tightly in her arms, afraid that the other party would change his mind.
Old Su is being so nice, there must be something fishy going on!
Su Jiu raised her hand and patted Na'er's little head, chuckling softly:
"Little money-grubber, what's yours is yours, I won't take it back, don't worry."
"Hehe~ Brother Su, you're the best!"
Na'er instantly beamed with joy, jumped up excitedly, gave Su Jiu a light peck on the cheek, and then, without looking back, grabbed a handful of Federal Coins and dragged A Jiu off to play all-in.
"Really..."
Su Jiu shook his head slightly and smiled helplessly. "With you all like this, how can he possibly resist?"
A few minutes later, clear your mind of all worries and distractions.
Well, I'll just have to take it one step at a time, so I headed towards my room.
Upon opening the jade box, a burst of purple-gold rosy clouds immediately rushed out. Looking through it, a brilliant golden chrysanthemum lay inside, giving the immediate impression that this was no ordinary item!
"Shouldn't you eat the petals first, then the stamens, when you eat chrysanthemums?"
Following her memory, Su Jiu consumed the entire chrysanthemum and then began to meditate, circulating her soul power through her meridians. After ensuring everything was prepared, she began to absorb the medicinal power of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum.
The next day, Su Jiu opened her eyes slightly, and a wisp of purple-gold light flickered in her eyelids, disappearing in an instant.
"The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum truly lives up to its name. It did raise my physical strength from near-demigod to demigod level, which is quite impressive..."
"As for being indestructible? That's rather disappointing. I'd guess it's just 'indestructible' among its peers..."
