Zhu Nanzhi pouted: "What’s the point of saying that? My husband’s body wasn’t first touched by us."
As the words fell, the bedroom beca silent.
Mu Qingyue took a deep breath: "The woman Junior Brother ntioned..."
"It must be a childhood betrothal!" Zhu Nanzhi said confidently.
"But Junior Brother only joined the Wandao Sect at the age of ten," Mu Qingyue hesitated, "It shouldn’t be that exaggerated, right?"
Zhu Nanzhi was silent for a while: "Humans can only start cultivating at seven, when Primordial Qi is first born... No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible, right?
Maybe it happened while my husband was out training, and you just didn’t notice!"
Saying this, she glared at Mu Qingyue: "It’s all because you’re useless. If it were , I could gauge the ’quantity’ to determine if my husband had been taken advantage of!"
Mu Qingyue increasingly felt that Zhu Nanzhi was a good person; to be able to tell her things like "you’re useless" implied that she could also handle Junior Brother...
Besides, today was the first ti she herself had tasted Junior Brother’s kiss, and Zhu Nanzhi didn’t pull out her sword...
Should we share?
Mu Qingyue thought and spoke softly: "What if Junior Brother was willing?"
Zhu Nanzhi furrowed her delicate brows, then heard Mu Qingyue continue: "Isn’t it because Junior Brother cares? Especially since she took Junior Brother’s first...
I heard from Guan Wen that n care a lot about the woman who takes their first?"
She paused, leaning forward slightly: "If that’s the case, what are you going to do to win him over?"
Zhu Nanzhi tilted her head, thought for a while, and waved her hand: "Ah, let’s not talk about this for now, let’s talk about sothing else."
Mu Qingyue laughed, feeling that if it were the day before yesterday, Zhu Nanzhi would definitely have said so tough words... Did Junior Brother say sothing to her?
Why is she so well-behaved?
"What to talk about?"
"Let think..." Unable to resist, Zhu Nanzhi asked: "Why don’t you share a little about the other side of my husband?"
"I’ll consider it..." Mu Qingyue glanced at the tidy bed, intending to delay.
Zhu Nanzhi responded, "Mm, mm," looking at Mu Qingyue expectantly.
She was really curious!
······
Outside, a distance away, Lu Jin’an took a brief look through the window at Nanzhi and Senior Sister, who were chatting happily, before turning away to head towards the Alchemy Hall.
After enjoying Master’s compensation earlier, he returned to Cuiqing Inn to tidy up the bed and then went back to Fuyao Inn where he witnessed this scene.
Nanzhi and Senior Sister were chatting peacefully, which was nice.
So Lu Jin’an also decided not to disturb them.
Chatting more helps build connections after all.
Moreover, cultivation is more important.
The past few days have been quite comfortable; if he indulges further, it’ll be harder to regain focus.
He headed straight to Zhang Jijin’s alchemy room in the Alchemy Hall, feeling reassured after seeing him pacing back and forth through the window, and then walked inside.
"Senior Brother?" Zhang Jijin looked at Lu Jin’an in surprise: "Why are you here so late?"
Lu Jin’an glanced at the materials strewn about: "Practicing. If I can’t gather all the materials for the Gang lting Blood Pill, I’ll have to take them and go out."
"That’s what I thought too." Zhang Jijin nodded: "But my idea was to refine other materials into dicine liquid first, so you’ll find it easier to carry."
"dicine liquid?" Lu Jin’an raised his eyebrows: "That’s not easy, as the order of alchemical materials matters."
"So, I thought of trying to divide it into several types of dicine liquid," Zhang Jijin said, "Master guided a bit, so it’s not impossible...
After all, if you really go out to find those two rare treasures, it’ll be fraught with danger, and Senior Brother, you might not have ti to refine the Dan Liquid."
Lu Jin’an leaned against the wall: "What’s the problem now?"
"Ahem, the materials are too valuable, and I’d feel bad wasting them," Zhang Jijin rubbed his hands awkwardly.
"Go ahead and try." Lu Jin’an looked at him: "I’ll make up for whatever you waste."
"Hehe." Zhang Jijin smiled awkwardly: "I was just waiting for you to say that, Senior Brother."
"As you should." Lu Jin’an chuckled: "I waste, I replenish... Make a list of the scarce materials in the dicine Garden for , and I’ll go find them."
"Okay, okay." Zhang Jijin quickly noted it down: "Do you know where to find them, Senior Brother?"
"The people from Tianyan Pavilion haven’t left yet." Lu Jin’an shrugged: "I’ll go ask them."
"True." Zhang Jijin handed a bamboo slip to Lu Jin’an.
Lu Jin’an used his Divine Sense to look at its contents: "I’ll set off in a while."
"In such a hurry?"
"Not really." At the door, Lu Jin’an turned and glanced at Zhang Jijin, his eyes deep: "I’m mainly itching... to seize treasures, you see."
Zhang Jijin watched the senior brother’s departing figure, then turned his head in high spirits to the materials obtained from the dicine Garden, took a deep breath, and sat cross-legged.
Start the furnace, refine the dicine liquid!
Half an hour later, a Flying Boat soared out from the Wandao Sect, heading southeast.
On Wangjiang Peak, where Wandao Sect hosted guests, Si Xiuqi, sitting in a wheelchair, watched the Flying Boat disappear into the sky, his fingers forming a seal.
"Senior Brother, don’t you think that now that Lu Brother is also the Wandao Sect’s Saint Heir, he doesn’t need to personally collect these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, does he?" A small Junior Sister, Ye Wanqiu, standing behind him, asked softly.
Si Xiuqi smiled slightly: "This is one of the reasons why Wandao Sect has no internal strife... cough cough."
Originally intending to ask more, Ye Wanqiu quickly pushed the wheelchair back indoors: "What are you calculating ?"
Si Xiuqi’s face flushed with unhealthy color, and after steadying his breath, he said: "Lu Brother should be trying to refine the Gang lting Blood Pill, so I was calculating the Purple Phoenix Blood Ginseng and Heart-Clearing Four-Leaf Fruit."
Ye Wanqiu, knowing that Senior Brother was well-versed in alchemical theory due to his efforts to treat his leg condition, couldn’t help but say: "But that’s Lu Brother’s concern, and you’re always helping him..."
