"We still lack the Xuanming True Water."
Wei Xiang's eyes fixed, and then he nodded heavily.
"Mysterious Dark True Water is only available in the Medicine King Hall. I only took these things out of the Hall. When I tried to take more of the Mysterious Dark True Water, I was discovered."
At this time, Li Lingge finally understood why Wei Xiang wanted him to join the Fuyao Sect and enter the Medicine King Palace. It was all for the Xuanming True Water.
Wei Xiang lowered her eyes slightly, somewhat hesitant to meet Li Lingge's gaze.
"In fact, if you join the Purple Cloud Palace, perhaps in the future—"
Unexpectedly, Wei Xiang was interrupted by Li Lingge just when she was halfway through her words.
Li Lingge reached out and lifted Wei Xiang's chin, saying half-jokingly.
"You promised to make me the Lord of the Divine Court."
At this moment, looking at Li Lingge's starry eyes up close, Wei Xiang felt his heart skip a beat.
Her red lips moved slightly forward, a little closer to Li Lingge.
"You've seen the strength of the Purple Sky God Emperor, and you trust me so much?"
Li Lingge's throat rolled and his breathing became heavier.
"You want to go back on your word?"
The rolling of his Adam's apple was clearly visible as he spoke, and the hot air from his breath brushed across Wei Xiang's nose.
At this moment, the two of them were so close that they could count each other's eyelashes. The clear fragrance of Hanyuetan on Wei Xiang mixed with the medicinal fragrance in the alchemy room, lingering around them, making them dizzy more than any other elixir.
She suddenly took half a step forward, and Li Lingge subconsciously stepped back, but his lower back hit the alchemy table behind him.
The unextinguished flame in the bronze furnace crackled and exploded into a spark, illuminating the jade pendant on Wei Xiang's earlobe with a flowing green light.
"I'm afraid I don't have a chance to regret it now."
She didn't know when it started, but Li Lingge had left an increasingly deep impression in her mind.
The two of them had unknowingly evolved from mere collaborators to friends, or perhaps even closer than friends.
The air in the alchemy room seemed to freeze, leaving only the slight crackling of the flame in the bronze furnace.
Wei Xiang placed her fingertips on Li Lingge's chest, feeling the growing heavier heartbeat beneath his chest, which made her fingertips numb.
"Li Lingge."
She called out softly, her voice a little lower than usual, and the ending tone trembled slightly, like a test, or some kind of subtle temptation.
Li Lingge did not respond, but just stared at her with a serious look.
His eyes slid from her slightly trembling eyelashes, to the tip of her straight nose, and finally landed on her bright red lips.
Wei Xiang's lips are extremely beautiful, with full cupid's bow, but at this moment they are slightly pursed due to nervousness.
Their breaths intertwined, and Wei Xiang could smell the crisp pine scent on him, mixed with the faint medicinal fragrance of the Fulong Pill he had just taken, which wrapped around her senses.
Her heart was beating so fast that it almost burst out of her chest, and the tips of her ears were burning red, but she stubbornly refused to look away.
Li Lingge gently stroked her lower lip with his thumb. The touch was warm and soft, which made his eyes darken.
Wei Xiang's whole body stiffened, and she subconsciously bit her lower lip, but just happened to freeze his fingertips.
The unexpectedness of this moment made both of them stunned. Li Lingge's breathing became noticeably heavier, and there seemed to be a dark current in his eyes.
He slowly withdrew his fingers, but when they left her lips, he caressed them faintly, bringing out a hint of ambiguous light.
Wei Xiang's ears turned completely red. She had never been so close to anyone before. At this moment, she felt her whole body was burning, and even her fingertips were trembling slightly.
Reason told her to step back, but her body seemed to be frozen, unable to move.
Before she could say anything else, Li Lingge had already lowered his head and kissed her.
The moment their lips touched, Wei Xiang's mind went blank.
His lips were softer than she had imagined, yet they held a strength that could not be rejected.
At first it was just a light touch, like a test, then the force increased, and they rubbed against each other.
Wei Xiang unconsciously clutched his collar, her knuckles turning white from the force.
She could feel his breath completely enveloping her, warm and overbearing, making her dizzy.
There was still a faint bitterness of the Qingxin Pill between the lips and teeth, but at this moment it turned into the most tempting taste.
Li Lingge's palm had grasped the back of her head without her knowing, his fingertips weaving into her soft hair, pressing her closer to him.
The kiss gradually deepened, filled with a long-suppressed desire, so hot that it was breathtaking.
The flames in the furnace suddenly shot up, casting the overlapping figures of the two people swaying on the stone wall.
After a cup of tea.
Wei Xiang leaned against the door with her dress a little disheveled, and all she could think of was Li Lingge.
At the last moment, reason still suppressed the inner desire.
Although she always felt empty in her heart, she couldn't do that.
Wei Xiang's fingers gently stroked the corner of her lips, and her slender legs unconsciously came together slightly.
"Wait until I recover my strength, then I can be of greater help to you. Please be patient."
…
The next day, at the Collection Pavilion.
The morning mist has not yet dissipated on the bluestone square in front of the Collection Pavilion.
Li Lingge came in a white robe, stepping on the dew. The jade token given by the sect leader himself around his waist was shining coldly in the morning sun.
"Look! It's Senior Brother Li!"
A low cry suddenly came from the disciples guarding the pavilion. Several disciples who were originally leaning lazily against the doorposts instantly straightened their backs and stared intently at the figure climbing up the stairs.
Li Lingge seemed oblivious to the commotion around him. He pressed his fingertips on the formation on the bronze pavilion door, and the ancient patterns suddenly lit up with green light.
Squeak——
The heavy door opened automatically, revealing the first layer of a vast sea of books.
