Chapter 491 Special Elixir
Sheng Jiu still maintained a rather unfriendly attitude towards elixirs.

Especially after taking Dragon Blood Pills last time and finding that I had no effect after taking them, I became even less willing to take them.

Eating too much is a waste of money.

So when Qing Wanxi asked her, Sheng Jiu shook her head: "No, I just wanted to ask if there is any kind of pill that can, over time, cause severe poisoning, shorten lifespan, but is undetectable?"

Qing Wanxi was surprised that Sheng Jiu would ask such a question. She was stunned for a moment after hearing it, and then nodded: "Yes, do you want something stronger or something gentler?"

After considering the situation on Wen Mingzhi's side, Sheng Jiu chose the latter: "Let's take a gentler approach."

The old emperor is already insane, and Sheng Jiu doesn't dare to imagine the consequences if he is further stimulated by pills.

So, a milder approach is also acceptable.

Qing Wanxi understood what she meant and quickly nodded, saying, "Wait a moment, this kind of pill is available in the city, I'll go get it for you."

When Sheng Jiu heard that it was available in the city, he originally intended to go and buy it himself.

However, Qing Wanxi stopped her: "Because of the effectiveness of this kind of pill, it is more often used to deal with various ferocious beasts. If it is not one of our own people, we cannot get the good ones. I will go."

Qing Wanxi insisted, so Sheng Jiu didn't try to persuade her any further.

It has to be said that cultivators are indeed fast.

Sheng Jiu felt that she hadn't waited long before Qing Wanxi returned with the pills.

Three bottles in total.

Qing Wanxi also specifically reminded, "You can't just eat this stuff."

This is to prevent Sheng Jiu from accidentally taking it again, which would be terrible.

Although she could be saved, the situation would be more complicated if she wasn't there.

Sheng Jiu nodded to indicate that he understood.

When she returned with the pills, she was met with Wen Mingzhi's expectant gaze.

Qing Wanxi had already carefully explained the instructions for using the pills to Sheng Jiu, and now she was relaying them to Wen Mingzhi.

Wen Mingzhi wrote them down one by one.

Three bottles of pills were still a bit too much. To ensure safety, Wen Mingzhi only took one bottle back with her.

Of course, the compensation is quite generous.

Although all the items she used after entering the palace were registered and could not be given away or sold privately.

But the Wen family is rich!

She brought quite a few things into the palace, and had already chosen a box to give to Sheng Jiu as a thank-you gift.

Now that she had the pills, Wen Mingzhi quickly packed another small box for herself.

Sheng Jiu soon received two boxes of thank-you gifts, one large and one small.

It contains jewelry, small ornaments, decorations, and so on.

Each one is exquisite and adorable; you can tell at a glance that a lot of care was put into their manufacture.

With the system filtering and disinfecting, Sheng Jiu wasn't worried about bringing back any unknown things.

So, which one should she cuddle with tonight?
After the transaction was completed, Wen Mingzhi took the pills and went back.

As for their subsequent plans, that's none of Sheng Jiu's business.

She didn't understand any of that; she just wanted to know who she would be sleeping with tonight.

Finally, I held a pair of beautiful jade bracelets in my arms; they were cool and refreshing to the touch.

Even after touching it for a while and absorbing body heat, it won't feel cold.

The next day, raindrops began to fall.

Winter rain makes people feel especially cold, and even the air feels a bit chilly.

Sheng Jiu got up early and looked out the window, but didn't dare to open it to test the temperature.

In weather like this, there's no need to test the waters!
It's cold!
However, the cold weather did not stop Sheng Jiu from getting up early to exercise.

If you lack talent and don't work hard, aren't you doomed?

When danger strikes, there's no escape. Sheng Jiu and Lin Duo went for a run in the cultivation world.

Maybe it's because they ran too far?
On the way, they encountered a group of dark-skinned demonic cultivators.

Sheng Jiu even had the illusion that they were lying in ambush.

Moreover, they don't waste time with pre-battle trash talk; they just go straight to the fight without any unnecessary words!
Sheng Jiu reacted quickly, grabbing Lin Duo with one hand and the doorknob with the other, trying to run away.

As a result, Lin Duo gently pulled his hand away from hers and said loudly, "Little boss, let me try!"

Although he hadn't been training for long, Lin Duo wanted to see how far his combat power had gotten.

Can't you properly protect the young boss?

If he can't, then he should keep trying!

Sheng Jiu hesitated for a moment before the demonic cultivators attacked.

There were seven people on the other side, forming a complete encirclement and giving them no chance to break through.

In this situation, Sheng Jiu staying would only be a hindrance.

However, not having cultivation does not mean that she is unable to move forward in the cultivation world.

Always running away, how pathetic!

So, interstellar cannon, activate!
Sheng Jiu immediately took out the Sky Cannon and fired a devastating shot at one of the demonic cultivators!
boom!
The sound was enormous.

Not to mention the demonic cultivator who was targeted, two of the others who weren't targeted were also knocked away.

They flew in the sky for a while, then landed with a thud, turning into a dark, round ball.

The extra-large meatballs... Sheng Jiu remembered that this thing seemed to be quite beneficial to people in a certain dimension.

She quickly had the system clean it up.

The other demonic cultivators were so frightened by Sheng Jiu's sudden attack that they almost lost their souls.

Wow, a high-level expert?
But they couldn't detect that the other party had any cultivation level at all.

There were seven people in total. Three flew away, leaving four. Two of them were still fighting Lin Duo.

It must be said that although Lin Duo has not been cultivating for long, he has good talent and has also trained for a long time in the apocalypse.

Therefore, their strength is beyond doubt.

The techniques that Lin Duo used to practice in his mind over and over again are now being put into practice.

He even gained new insights during the battle, and might be able to break through!

However, there's no rush; we still need to protect the small business owner.

Sheng Jiu didn't leave; Lin Duo was still focused on protecting her.

Defense is the primary focus, offense is secondary.

However, this does not mean that his attacks are ineffective.

How could Lin Duo's attack fail?

That's great!
The demonic cultivators were not highly skilled to begin with, and their minds were still somewhat muddled, driven entirely by their instinctive thirst for blood and wealth.

Therefore, there is absolutely no chance of victory against Shang Linduo!
Moreover, they also have to deal with Shengjiu's high technology!

With that one shot, half of the seven men were killed, and half of them were gone.

What else is there to fight for?

The demonic cultivator tried to escape.

However, Lin Duo didn't give them that opportunity at all.

In less than ten minutes, they were all turned into black balls, which Sheng Jiu then collected.

Although it's uncertain whether they'll have a chance to open up the Western fantasy dimension.

But let's keep it.

What if it works?
If all else fails, you can ask Qing Wanxi and the others if they need these for alchemy.
Qing Wanxi: ...

The second update will be at 19 PM.
