Chapter 22 Power Pill
When Yunxi saw the sketchbook description sent by Ningxuan, her previously disdainful gaze immediately widened.
[“After the Resentful Senior Sister Reborn, the Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for Her Forgiveness”: Lian Yunwu is the senior sister of the Sword Peak of the Qingyun Sword Sect, and the only female disciple among the peak master's personal disciples. She has always been deeply loved and respected by the peak master and her fellow disciples. Unexpectedly, all of this changed after the arrival of the charming junior sister…]
The female protagonist's experience in this straightforward synopsis feels strangely familiar; it's so similar to my current situation.
It's straightforward and very engaging, so what happened to the senior sister later? How did she get reborn? And why is the entire sect begging for forgiveness? Why is the junior sister such a heartthrob?
Many questions lingered in Yunxi's mind, like hooks drawing her to open the storybook and find out the answers.
The trading system has a built-in translation function. Whether the hosts send messages or text content, it will automatically translate them into the language of the host's world. Modern novels will automatically become fictional stories in the cultivation world, so Yunxi could read the synopsis of this novel without any problems.
However, perhaps because the 1970s are closer to the 21st century, the novels from that era are still the same as they were originally. Ning Xuan thought the system was really amazing and considerate!
【I'll take this sketchbook. I happen to have some elixirs here that are suitable for mortals to consume; they can enhance one's strength. Do you need them?】
Ning Xuan nodded frantically. Absolutely! This is fantastic! Novels are useful! Hahaha, there are so many more to come after I finish this one…
The pills she received were about the size of a thumb and had a pleasant fragrance. Ning Xuan didn't hesitate and put one in her mouth.
It melted instantly in her mouth; before Ning Xuan could even react, the pill had completely dissolved and been swallowed.
After eating, she felt her previously limp body suddenly become like it had been injected with stimulants, feeling full of energy and wanting to release it.
Ning Xuan could only walk to the ground and then punched randomly for about half an hour. She worked up a sweat and then felt the pent-up excitement finally subside.
To test her strength, Ning Xuan tried to drag her wooden box. The box was quite heavy when it was full, and she usually couldn't lift it by herself. She could only drag it with difficulty on the kang (a heated brick bed).
Now, Ning Xuan gently pulled the handle next to the wooden box, and the box immediately moved. She also noticed that the handle was loose.
So she switched to lifting the box, no longer touching the handles, and easily lifted the box full of things.
It was really easy, like carrying a basket of vegetables, it felt like it had no weight at all.
Ning Xuan was overjoyed. With increased strength, she could work much more easily in the countryside and also gained more ability to protect herself.
She hasn't yet figured out the limit of her strength, since the box is the heaviest thing in the room. She'll have to find another opportunity to test it out slowly.
The most important thing now is to get used to her increased strength. Ning Xuan wiped the sweat off with a towel, then took out the novel she had just gotten from the warehouse, intending to turn the pages to practice her strength.
As expected, she couldn't control her sudden increase in strength at first, and she tore up a lot of paper before she stopped damaging it.
While Ning Xuan was repeatedly training, Yun Xi from the Yunlan Continent couldn't wait to open the sketchbook as soon as she got it, and once she started, she couldn't stop.
While watching, I made comments based on the plot:
These two fellow disciples are truly like completely different people.
[How could no one see through such an obvious frame-up? No wonder this senior sister is so disheartened with them.]
[This charming junior sister, like her other junior sister, always seems to say things that make her feel uncomfortable.]
Then, seeing that her senior sister's cultivation had been destroyed by her senior brother, Yunxi kept crying.
This novel is quite long. Yunxi didn't eat, drink, or sleep, and it took her two days to finish reading it.
After reading it, Yunxi felt that her mindset had changed. Although she didn't cultivate the ruthless path like the senior sister in the story, she no longer thought about how to prove to her master and fellow disciples that she didn't intentionally target or hurt her junior sister.
She crushed her senior brother's communication talisman, immediately reopened the cave's grand formation, and then planned to go into seclusion for a while.
Hmph, they want me to give up my spiritual herbs to heal my junior sister's injuries and even offer a magic treasure as an apology. Screw you all, I'm going to improve my cultivation and I'm not playing with you anymore!
That storybook looks pretty good, though. I wonder if that system still exists.
She didn't hesitate and sent a message directly to ask.
Ning Xuan was delighted to receive the message. That's the charm of novels; they absolutely have to have it.
So Ning Xuan sent her a synopsis of a novel. This time it wasn't a story about regret; it was a female protagonist focused on her career, not on romance, but on cultivating her powers, and ultimately achieving ascension...
After reading the introduction, Yunxi felt a surge of pride, and then she suddenly understood…
Ning Xuan waited for a while but still didn't receive a reply. She didn't know what was going on, but she guessed that the other party must have something to do. If they didn't like it, they would probably say they would choose another book.
Therefore, Ning Xuan temporarily stopped dealing with the transaction with Yun Xi.
Ning Xuan was working. Since taking the stimulant, she had been working very easily these past two days. However, in order not to attract attention, she was still slacking off to maintain her previous work level, earning only 4 or 5 work points a day.
In fact, among the single female educated youth, as long as they did not need to earn a lot of work points to make a living, even if they were used to working, they would try not to compete for full work points, even though it was an honorable thing.
Because the villagers like capable women, and female educated youths are already more likely to attract the attention of the team members. If they are also particularly capable, then even more people will have designs on them.
This is also a helpless way to protect oneself, although in fact most of the time there is no need to hide one's abilities, because most of the work is still quite strenuous.
Since Ning Xuan has suddenly become much stronger, she can only hide her strength for now.
However, it feels great to be able to work easily. Now working is like playing. My back doesn't ache and my hands don't hurt when I finish work each day.
Ning Xuan suspected that the strength pill not only increased her strength but also improved her physical condition. Although she didn't know how much it improved her, Ning Xuan was sleeping much more comfortably at night now.
Recently, the temperature has started to drop in the middle of the night, and she used to always wake up from the cold. But now she can sleep through the night with just a thin blanket over her stomach.
Ning Xuan felt that there was a lot of potential in the cultivation world!
However, as her strength increased and her physique improved, Ningxuan's appetite improved a lot, and she had "a lot" of ideas!
She was eating with Xu Jiajia and the others. After finishing a big bowl of rice, she was still not full. Then she went back to her room and took out the boxed lunch that Lin Yuhan had prepared for her. It was the deluxe version with staple food, meat, and vegetables, stuffed full. She needed to eat two more boxes to feel 80% full.
In just a few days, her stock of boxed lunches in the warehouse was almost gone, and she started exchanging boxed lunches with Lin Yuhan again.
Ning Xuan was thinking that now that her health had improved, she should start working on making money in the 1970s. Otherwise, after a while, she wouldn't be able to offer anything to Lin Yuhan for trade.
