Chapter 396

Miss Lu, I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen...

More than three hours later, in the reception hall, Lu Xun's voice rang out.

At this moment, Lu Xueqi had already returned to normal.

The love poison is somewhat special; after the poisoned parties have deep contact, it will ease for a period of time.

But the next time it will become stronger.

Just like Lu Xun and Ran Bing.

At first, both sides could hold out for a while, but as time passed, the intervals grew shorter and shorter.

Only after Lu Xun obtained a method from Ah Hui did he choose to fight poison with poison, thereby forcibly extending the time to seven days.

However, even using poison against poison, the effect will gradually wane.

Lu Xun's side is actually fine; he can endure longer.

Ran Bing cannot.

Her cultivation is a bit too low.

As for Lu Xueqi's side, the time should be longer, after all she is at the Seventh Realm.

After being infected with the love poison, she stubbornly held out for a month before losing control.

But upon seeing Lu Xun, she still lost control.

That's why there were those preceding three hours.

Things have all happened.

Lu Xun had no choice but to brace himself and explain.

Lu Xueqi sat there, silently listening.

To her, such a thing happening suddenly was nothing short of the sky falling.

Before this, Lu Xueqi had never even held hands with a man.

But now she suddenly had skin-to-skin contact with Lu Xun.

Although her impression of Lu Xun was not bad, the events still happened too suddenly.

"So, even if we have done this, there is no way to completely resolve the love poison?"

Lu Xueqi is not the type who, after such an event, would only cry and whimper.

After hearing Lu Xun's explanation, she quickly grasped the main point.

"Yes, to resolve it probably only the pollen of the Eighth Boundary Heavenly Demon King will work."

Lu Xun nodded.

"What should we do before then?"

Lu Xueqi asked again.

"If one does not want the love poison to destroy one's mind, the only option is to fight poison with poison, using medicines such as the Harmony Pill to delay its onset."

Lu Xun told the truth.

As for the whole matter, apart from concealing the Gu Yao incident, Lu Xun only said he had been poisoned by a Nine Realms Demon King's love poison, and otherwise did not hide anything from Lu Xueqi.

Including the fact that Lu Xun only learned the effect of the love poison later.

To prevent Lu Xueqi from thinking Lu Xue was deliberately poisoning, Lu Xue specially showed her Fei Tai'a's messages and call records.

The Gu Yao matter is too big.

Lu Xun dares not gamble.

"Give it to me."

Lu Xueqi extended her hand.

"What?"

"The Harmony Pill; with my cultivation, one should be enough to last until the ancient route node."

Lu Xueqi said.

"You probably need a seventh-grade one; I'll have to find someone to refine it."

Lu Xun said.

"Alright, you go refine it first; I'll test how long I can hold out, and when I can't anymore, I'll come find you."

Having said that, Lu Xueqi picked up her sword and left.

But after taking just two steps, Lu Xueqi's expression became unnatural.

Perhaps the fierce battle just now was too intense; now she cannot walk without leaning on a wall.

Lu Xueqi simply flew straight away from the Lu family building.

"What is this supposed to be?"

Seeing Lu Xueqi leave, Lu Xun only felt a headache.

Ran Bing's side is still not settled, and now another Lu Xueqi has appeared.

The two of them have also developed this kind of relationship.

Although those three-plus hours were extremely pleasurable, the situation has become extraordinarily troublesome.

Fortunately, Lu Xueqi's temperament is relatively good; what happened happened, she did not cause trouble for Lu Xun, nor did she suspect him of deliberately poisoning, but instead actively dealt with it.

Otherwise, things would only become more troublesome.

Upon reflection, a young lady's pristine reputation has been ruined by Lu Xun, yet she is still facing it positively.

What does Lu Xun have to worry about?

Thus, Lu Xue gathered her spirits and decided to first refine a seventh-grade Harmony Pill before speaking further.

The materials for a seventh-grade Harmony Pill are not many; Lu Xun had Xie Yuyan purchase them, and they managed to gather some.

After advancing in pill refining, if some materials are lacking, substitutes can be found based on medicinal properties, or low-grade materials can be purified to complete the process.

Done.

One day later, Lu Xue completed the Seventh-grade Harmony Pill.

As for Ran Bing's side, Lu Xun found the pattern; currently, fifth-grade aphrodisiac pills are used more often.

Sixth-grade pills are rarely used.

For Ran Bing, fourth-grade is actually enough, but its effect duration is too short.

Sixth-grade lasts longer, but the pill toxicity is stronger, so Lu Xun chose fifth-grade,

After settling the Seventh-grade Harmony Pill, the next issue arises.

Should we bind or not?

After having deep interaction with Lu Xueqi, she can be bound.

The binding condition is either deep interaction, or after affection reaches 100%, a ceremonial kiss will suffice.

Deep interaction requires no other conditions.

Just as when binding Murong Wan, it was done this way.

On Lu Xueqi's side, it's naturally possible.

The system's prompt came long ago; Lu Xun just hasn't made a choice yet.

Mainly because Lu Xueqi comes from the Lu family, which Lu Xun doesn't view favorably.

However, upon reflection, the Lu family aren't utterly wicked; although Lu Chen gave Lu Xun a bad impression, Lu Xueqi's personality is still decent.

Just binding Lu Xueqi isn't a big problem.

So, after careful consideration, Lu Xun decided to bind first and see.

He now needs strength.

Greater strength.

Lu Xueqi is at least a Seventh Realm Immortal Cultivator; after binding her, as long as she breaks through, Lu Xun's Immortal Dao cultivation can quickly rise.

Lu Xun currently has quite a few bound Immortal Cultivators: Chu Youqing, Bai Ling, and Ran Bing.

Their cultivation progress is extremely rapid, yet ultimately their realm is a bit low.

Bind.

Thinking this through, Lu Xun made a decision.

【Meets binding conditions, Lu Xueqi bound】

【Current return multiplier: 70】

【Note: Lu Xueqi possesses one of the ten innate physiques, the Liuli Pure Body, which can be upgraded to Liuli Holy Body via the Nine-turn Golden Lotus or the Chaos Lotus.】

【Reminder: The host can claim binding rewards.】

After binding Lu Xueqi, a series of system prompts appeared.

Liuli Pure Body?

Seeing the prompt, Lu Xun couldn't help but be startled.

He seemed to have heard of this physique somewhere.

That's right.

In Lu Xun's cohort, Magic City University discovered a student with the Liuli Pure Body.

The benefit of this physique is innate immunity to heart demons, a clear mind, and even immunity to heavenly tribulation.

If one can break through the Nine Realms, a cultivator possessing the Liuli Pure Body has a far higher success rate in tribulation transcendence than other Nine Realm cultivators.

From the system's prompt, the Liuli Pure Body can still be upgraded.

Being able to upgrade means being able to receive returns...

Being able to upgrade is good, because successful upgrading can trigger returns.

Nine-turn Golden Lotus... Chaos Lotus?

The Nine-turn Golden Lotus... should be a kind of spirit lotus; generally, it needs over a thousand years for the lotus to become golden.

One turn takes a thousand years; the Nine-turn Golden Lotus needs nine thousand years to grow.

Nine thousand years... too long!

Although there are countless spiritual objects at the Ancient Road Node, the ubiquitous starspace alien species won't wait that long.

Thus, obtaining the Nine-turn Golden Lotus is too difficult.

The Chaos Lotus is even harder.

Just hearing about it sounds difficult.

Fortunately, there are binding rewards.

This time, Lu Xun directly claimed the binding reward.

【You obtained a Chaos Lotus Seed; it can be planted in an activated Chaos Cell, and once it blooms, you can obtain the Chaos Lotus.】

System prompt appeared.

Good partner.

Seeing the prompt, Lu Xun exclaimed, 'Good partner!'

In his own Chaos Cell, can it also be used to grow lotus flowers?
