Sheng Wu could feel the bone marrow in her body contracting and then growing, as if an indescribable tearing pain was spreading through her flesh and blood. Fine beads of sweat broke out on her forehead and she collapsed on the chair.
Isn’t this thing just a replica of the Marrow Cleansing Pill? She is familiar with it. It was given to Yu Chenming and the other eleven people in the third world.
Seeing that although Lumina did not deliberately plot against her, she was happy to see her frustrated smile, Shengwu's slightly pale face instantly smiled.
"Oh......"
Then, under Lumina's surprised gaze, her face suddenly regained its rosy complexion and she stood up from the chair without any effect.
"Okay, just teasing you."
Sheng Wu raised her chin slightly nonchalantly, her light-colored pupils looking at a pet with a teasing look.
"This is another lesson I want to teach you. Never assume you have complete control over anything. This is true for seizing power and for people's hearts. Your ability limits your vision."
Knowing that she had been fooled by her, Lumina's face was slightly condensed, but she was not angry. Instead, she really listened to Sheng Wu's teachings. She looked at her with more fear and a dark look in her eyes, and clenched her fingertips.
She had also taken this potion and knew better than anyone the severe pain it caused. Not only could she not pretend to feel nothing like Lillian, but it was difficult for her to just endure the pain and stand up.
But she's fine! Is Lillian really just an ordinary human woman...
After saying that, Sheng Wu strode towards the study room with a magic book in her arms, ready to study it carefully.
As early as in the first world, she asked Heituanzi to exchange 100 points for a reward that could block 100% of the pain. She would have the feelings of this physical body, but she could also block it at any time as long as she wanted.
When Lumina came back, she still had a lot of things to arrange, so she didn't bother him any further and just turned around and left the room.
Just as he was about to go out, he met Lucius who was about to come in.
The two met at the palace gate, but Lumina simply ignored him and walked past him coldly as if he were air.
Lucius also knew that Lumina didn't seem to like him. Although he didn't know what he had done to anger her, he didn't take it to heart. In his eyes, Lumina was just a lively sister and there was nothing to argue with her about.
Lucius walked into the palace and saw a pile of magic books on the table. He seemed to have anticipated where Sheng Wu would be and went straight to the study.
Sure enough, Sheng Wu was sitting in a corner of the study, carefully studying a basic magic book in his hand.
Lucius walked over.
"Lillian, humans are not physically strong enough to practice magic. If you practice according to the elves' methods, be careful that your body won't be able to withstand the power."
He was stating the facts and reminding Sheng Wu to be safe, and he had no other intentions.
Sheng Wu knew what he meant. She raised her head from the book and fixed her light-colored pupils on him.
"I won't copy anyone else's path. Since the human physique is not suitable for cultivation, I will create a path suitable for my own cultivation."
For example, according to Lillian's method in the original plot, she could fuse the blood of other races to change her own human physique.
Hearing this, Lucius vaguely sensed a hint of extremism in her idea and asked another question with some concern.
"What do you want to do?"
If Lillian really changed her physique excessively, she would be violating the rules by which God created humans, and would very likely be rebelling against God!
Sheng Wu knew that he was a believer in God, so she naturally would not really tell him her plan. Instead, she curled her lips to comfort him and persuaded Lucius from a selfish perspective.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything bad. I just want to learn powerful instincts in a human way. Of course, some small changes are inevitable in the process. But Lucius, I just want to be strong. Am I wrong? If God hadn't created me to be dependent on you and made me less powerful than you, perhaps I wouldn't have to work so hard now."
After a pause, she saw some struggle in Lucius' pupils, and continued to press on.
"Furthermore, you and I are the first humans created, our ancestors. You should both feel that humans lack greater strength than other races. Once we reproduce and have other humans, do you expect us to be unable to protect our offspring in the event of an ethnic conflict, leaving them to suffer an irresistible fate? I'm working hard not only for myself, but also for future generations."
These words were extremely noble and majestic, and Sheng Wu's expression was very solemn and serious, with a firm gaze.
Of course, if you ignore the subtle calculation in her pupils as she deliberately observed Lucius's reaction.
“…”
Lucius already felt indebted to Sheng Wu, and when he heard her speak so selflessly and magnanimously, the hesitation in his heart dissipated a lot in an instant.
After he arrived in the Elf Kingdom, he could indeed feel the powerful self-healing ability and magic of the elves. This was not a force that humans could resist head-on. Even if he himself insisted on the idea of peaceful coexistence, other races would not always maintain a peaceful attitude for the sake of their own interests.
[Ding! Male protagonist's favorability, 30!]
So Lucius lowered his eyes and hesitated for a long time. His lips opened and closed, and finally he could only sigh softly, and raised his eyes with helplessness and a hint of admiration.
"Okay then. I won't try to dissuade you any further. Just be careful not to get too aggressive and hurt yourself."
He only likes a peaceful and quiet life, but he also respects Lillian Muqiang's ideas because she is his wife. Although, he still doesn't understand what she means by love.
Seeing this, Sheng Wu raised her lips slightly and nodded softly.
"Okay, I understand. You go eat first. I'll read for a while."
"good."
