It was obvious that the strong man did not take advantage of her. The portions of various ingredients were the same as before, or even a little less. But even so, she couldn't eat it all.

Unless Gao Weihu wakes up, or the carnivore Su Baoer is present, maybe he can still fight him.

"See, I told you not to compete with him. You don't know, I vomited after eating so much last time, and I didn't want to eat for three whole days." Jiang Qiling said with sympathy.

"You actually competed with him!" Mu Hanyan looked at Jiang Qiling in surprise.

Such a big pot of chicken, duck, rabbit, and especially the big wild boar, it would take a huge appetite to eat it all. She didn't even look at her little belly and actually ate it all.

I have seen people who lack self-awareness, but I have never seen anyone so lacking in self-awareness.

"Well, it's not just once. I compete with him every once in a while. You don't know that I have a much bigger appetite now. If you hadn't come, maybe I would eat more than him in a while." Jiang Qiling said complacently, touching her belly.

What are you so proud of?! Mu Hanyan was completely speechless. No wonder this guy had so much more flesh on his body than before. It turned out it was all from eating. However, she was not wrong about one thing. This guy was really thick-skinned. He was actually obsessed with competing with others in eating. She didn't even look at her own body and then at the bodies of others. Even if she held on for a thousand years, she wouldn't be able to have a belly like others.

"Do you think I want to eat? Look, my belly is full and I'm almost too embarrassed to see anyone. But there's no other way. If I can't beat him, I'll have to help him test the herbs. That's a real life worse than death." Seeing the emotion in Mu Hanyan's eyes, Jiang Qiling said helplessly again.

"Okay, since you have admitted defeat voluntarily, I will not make things difficult for you. As long as you help me try these herbs, if they succeed, I will give you freedom." The strong man said to Mu Hanyan without any further ado. He took out a pile of herbs.

"How to try?" Mu Hanyan looked at the pile of herbs. She didn't recognize most of them, and only a few of them were recognized. They were all extremely rare and exotic flowers and herbs from the Holy Court Continent or the God's Continent. However, since they grew in this illusion of life and death, their medicinal properties would probably be very different.

"I want to use these herbs to make pills, but I don't know how to match the dosage. I will boil them into hot juice. All you need is to help me test out the correct dosage." said the strong man.

Uh... Mu Hanyan swallowed unconsciously.

There were over a hundred kinds of herbs in this pile, and it was not easy to use them to test out the correct recipe for the medicine. More importantly, there were dozens of herbs among them that she didn't even know the names of. Even if she knew the names, the medicinal properties might be very different from what she knew.

You have to know that the art of alchemy doesn't allow for the slightest mistake. If nothing survives after such a chaotic mix of ingredients, it would be a miracle. Even if her Tianxin technique could absorb the power of all things, it might not be able to withstand it. Besides, this illusion of life and death is so strange, who knows if her Tianxin technique will work.

"You don't have to be afraid. In this illusion of life and death, as long as you are a cultivator, even if your cultivation is completely wasted, as long as your head is not chopped off and your heart meridians are not destroyed by others, you can't die even if you want to." Seeing Mu Hanyan's uncertain expression, the strong man comforted her again.

"Oh?" Mu Hanyan was curious about this strange space, and looked at him in confusion when she heard that.

"The so-called illusion of life and death is the barrier space between life and death. It is the illusion of heaven and earth that I have created after spending tens of thousands of years to comprehend the laws of life and death. The mystery contained in it is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people. As long as you are a cultivator, even if your cultivation is completely wasted when you come in, you will not die from eating these hundreds of herbs, let alone the most poisonous poisons. If you don't believe me, just look at her. Isn't she still alive and well?" The strong man said proudly, and pointed at Jiang Qiling and added.

"Well, I'm still alive." Jiang Qiling said unhappily.

Although she was indeed still alive, and had gained some weight by practicing her appetite, she was the only one who knew whether she was living a good life. Were those herbs so easy to try? Every time she thought of the pain she had gone through, she wished she could just die.

Mu Hanyan glanced at Jiang Qiling. In fact, there was no need to use her as an example. Mu Hanyan also believed the strong man's words to 90%. Gao Weihu was the best example.

Given his injuries, he would have died long ago if he had not received timely treatment, but he has survived until now and shows no signs of dying.

However, seeing Jiang Qiling's resentment, Mu Hanyan knew that the herb was not so easy to try. She was afraid that she would have to suffer a lot, or even as Jiang Qiling said, make her life worse than death.

At this moment, Mu Hanyan was completely certain that she had misunderstood before. The torture Jiang Qiling suffered was still eating, but it was just too difficult and painful to eat, not the inhuman humiliation she had imagined.

It's so evil! Recalling Jiang Qiling's strange look that almost carved the words "you are so evil" on her forehead, Miss Mu blushed secretly.

"As long as you can help me, I will find a way to send you away from here. Also, with his injuries, he will definitely die once he leaves the illusion of life and death. At that time, I can help him heal his injuries, and his strength will not be affected at all." The strong man was afraid that Mu Hanyan would go back on his word, so he offered new conditions.

After all, Mu Hanyan's strength is there. If she denies it, he really has no good way to deal with her. It's just chase and escape, a brief stalemate or a few moves before chasing and escaping again. In the end, the other party will not be able to leave the illusion of life and death, but he will not be able to test out the recipe for the elixir.

Speaking of which, Mu Hanyan was helpless as he was haunted by her, and he was just as helpless.

If Mu Hanyan hadn't come, he could still count on Jiang Qiling, but now that Jiang Qiling was in Mu Hanyan's hands, he had no way to deal with her.

To Mu Hanyan, this space was completely isolated from the outside world, but the illusion of life and death was his work after all, so he could barely sense the outside world. He had vaguely sensed that person's breath and really didn't want to delay any longer.

Mu Hanyan's eyes lit up when she heard the burly man's words. Since this illusion was his creation, there must be a way to break it. It was much better than racking her brains to come up with a solution.

Moreover, Gao Weihu's injury did make her a little worried. What if he couldn't suppress the sudden recurrence of his injury after coming out of the illusion?

The strong man's promise gave her peace of mind.

The only thing that puzzled her was that since this strong man had such magical powers and could form such a magical illusion space, why was his strength so weak that he couldn't even beat herself without relying on the big pot.

But at this time, she didn't want to bother thinking about this kind of problem, and probably the other party wouldn't tell her even if she asked.

"Okay, I promise you." Mu Hanyan weighed it over and over again and finally made a decision.
