Because Xu Wendong did not have the nationality of Blackwater Kingdom, he could not book a room alone, so he could only stay in the sa room with Lu Nanyan.
Although there was only one bed in the room, there was also a separate mat for cultivation.
It didn’t have much of an impact.
And just as Xu Wendong and Lu Nanyan had moved into the Li Family Inn, this news also reached Zhao Changtian’s ears at the first mont.
"Damn it!"
Zhao Changtian flew into a rage; he originally planned to send two Nascent Soul Pinnacle experts to infiltrate the Lu Family and assassinate Xu Wendong.
But against all expectations, this person actually stayed in the Li Family Inn.
Even though the Zhao Family was one of the four great noble families in Blackwater Kingdom, they dared not act on the Li Family’s territory.
To do so would be tantamount to becoming enemies with the Li Family.
The butler expressed his opinion: "It now seems that Xu Wendong is highly likely to refine the Pojing Pill, otherwise, the Lu Family wouldn’t use this thod to protect him."
A chilling murderous intent flashed in Zhao Changtian’s eyes: "Spend lavishly to bribe a staff mber of the Li Family Inn to poison Xu Wendong’s food."
"I refuse to believe he can’t be killed!"
The old butler’s eyes brightened: "Master’s plan is brilliant, I will imdiately instruct soone to carry it out."
------
Night deepened.
Li Family Inn.
Xu Wendong sat cross-legged on the mat, cultivating the Dragon Phoenix Creation Technique; the spiritual energy in the Human Realm is much denser than that in the Demon Realm.
However, even so, it wouldn’t enhance his cultivation level, for he had already stepped into the Soul Division Realm.
To break through, relying only on nature’s spiritual energy was unrealistic.
The best way was to consu an elixir that enhances cultivation level.
Or engage in dual cultivation with a woman.
And these, he currently did not possess.
"Foolish!"
The Dragon Soul’s voice rang in the depths of Xu Wendong’s mind: "Do you know why there are so many cultivator countries in the cultivation world?"
Xu Wendong curiously asked: "Why?"
In fact, he was also puzzled as to why the cultivation world had so many cultivator countries rather than multiple factions.
After all, cultivators did not have much ambition for power and authority; they pursued a life akin to that of freeliving beings.
The Dragon Soul retorted: "You clearly have virtue power, yet you don’t know why there are so many cultivator countries in this world?"
Xu Wendong’s heart trembled sharply: "You an to say, the purpose of the existence of cultivator countries is to collect the virtue power of all living beings?"
He had been mixed in official circles on Earth, knowing the advantages of entering officialdom; indeed, it could enhance one’s creation and the so-called virtue power.
The Dragon Soul said: "If you want to beco stronger, I recomnd you enter the official circles of Blackwater Kingdom."
"If you can make an impact in officialdom, and even condense the Ten Thousand Citizens Seal using virtue power, it will be a great weapon surpassing spiritual artifacts!"
Xu Wendong was sowhat tempted, but still said: "I’ll wait until I finish resolving the Lu Family’s matters and gain nationality in Blackwater Kingdom before considering it!"
The night passed without event.
The next day.
Lu Nanyan took Xu Wendong to the governnt office to help him obtain Blackwater Kingdom nationality.
A black identity card with a na and address on it, though it didn’t have an ID card, it had Xu Wendong’s soul imprint.
This functioned the sa as an ID on Earth; with it, one could use the teleportation array.
However, using the teleportation array required an additional hefty fee, calculated based on the distance.
Although Xu Wendong had said that after helping the Lu Family refine the Pojing Pill, they could help him process nationality information, Lu Nanyan wished to handle it first, showcasing her attitude towards Xu Wendong with this gesture.
Afterwards, the two casually ate sothing in the city and returned to the inn, then each resud their cultivation.
It wasn’t that Xu Wendong did not wish to see the bustling Heishui City, but he sensed soone monitoring him in secret.
Such a feeling was unpleasant; rather than endure it, he preferred to return to the inn for cultivation.
Even if he couldn’t improve his cultivation level, he could at least calm his restless heart.
Not long after night fell again, a faint knock sounded on the door.
Lu Nanyan got up and walked to the door, receiving the food and wine brought by the staff.
"Young Master Xu, please eat first!" Lu Nanyan said with a smile, placing the food and wine on the table.
Four exquisite dishes, plus a jar of fine wine, and two portions of spirit rice, the als were quite good.
The two then quietly enjoyed their dinner.
Lu Nanyan was a gentle woman, making no sound while dining, giving a sense of being obedient and quietly refined.
Possibly due to the wine, after a couple of cups, a tinge of red appeared on her delicate face, making her look stunningly beautiful.
After the al, she collected the dishes and placed them outside the door, waiting for staff to co and clear them.
But just as she shut the door, she let out an exclamation, her petite body collapsing onto the ground.
"Miss Lu, what’s wrong with you?" Xu Wendong hurriedly walked over to support her.
"I don’t know what’s happening, I feel very weak in soul," Lu Nanyan looked pale and even speaking seed laborious.
Xu Wendong imdiately helped her onto the bed, then grabbed her wrist, feeling her pulse.
"It seems your divine soul is poisoned," Xu Wendong said gravely.
Lu Nanyan’s pupils trembled: "I heard there’s a poison called Tragic Soothing Breeze, which is colorless and tasteless, and once targeted, can paralyze the divine soul."
"But why am I poisoned while you are fine?"
Lu Nanyan’s beautiful eyes were full of confusion; she and Xu Wendong ate and stayed together, so if she were poisoned, why was Xu Wendong unhard?
Xu Wendong replied: "It should be due to my special physique!"
He inherently had the Ancient Sacred Body, not to ntion consuming a large number of spiritual dicines while in the Demon Realm, including the Dragon Clan’s treasured Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass.
To be blunt, there was no poison in this world that could affect him.
Saying he was immune to all poisons was not an exaggeration.
Lu Nanyan’s eyes showed a bitter smile: "We were careless; if we only stayed at the Li Family Inn and didn’t consu the food here, we might have avoided being poisoned!"
Xu Wendong sighed lightly: "Indeed, we were careless, never expecting the Zhao Family could infiltrate the Li Family Inn."
"Fortunately, Young Master Xu is unhard, that’s a blessing in disguise," Lu Nanyan forced a smile: "Even if I die, it’s not a big deal; I hope Young Master Xu can help our Lu Family refine the Pojing Pill."
Lu Nanyan was not afraid of death; she only hoped Xu Wendong would keep his promise and help the Lu Family refine the Pojing Pill.
In this way, in the struggle between the Lu and Zhao families, the Lu Family was sure to win.
As long as the Lu Family could win, sacrificing herself wouldn’t matter.
Xu Wendong hesitated for a mont, then awkwardly said: "Miss Lu, I am skilled in dual cultivation techniques that can help with healing; would you like to try?"
