Mei Yaya stepped on his broad and strong shoulders, looking down at him with her watery almond eyes.
"Jingzhi, if you were asked to choose between me and the Lu family, what would you choose?"
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi raised his head, looking puzzled, "Why do you say that, my lady?"
"It was Feng Xi and Mu Yun a few days ago..."
Lu Jingzhi was stunned. He didn't expect that such an interesting thing would happen during his days of seclusion.
"What would you choose?"
"I don't choose. Of course I want them all."
......
The faint candlelight swayed gently in the wind.
At this time, he was lying quietly on the bed, with fine beads of sweat constantly appearing on his forehead and his face was as pale as paper.
He was shirtless, and his body was covered with scars of all sizes, crisscrossing in all directions, which was shocking to see.
And on his arm, there was a deep black scratch, which looked particularly hideous and terrifying.
Su Jiqing sat upright in front of the bed, holding a bottle of medicine powder with a focused expression, and gently sprinkled it on the black scratches on his arm.
Boss Xu stood silently to the side, staring at a portrait in his hand, his brow furrowed, lost in deep thought...
"Ji Qing, do you think the poison he was infected with can be cured?" Boss Xu asked, breaking the silence.
Su Jiqing put down the medicine bottle in his hand, stretched out his fingers gracefully, and pinched his orchid finger.
"Don't worry, it should be able to detoxify."
"I've seen records of this toxin in my book of poisons. It's called Red Crane Heart Poison."
"I'll prepare an antidote for him right now."
"However, Boss Xu, you need to sprinkle medicinal powder on his wound every hour to prevent the spread of the poison."
"Otherwise, he might have died before I was ready."
Boss Xu nodded and said, "Go ahead and do your best. If you need any herbs, tell the third brother and the others to find them for you."
"Okay." After saying that, Su Jiqing touched his strong muscles with his hand.
"He's quite strong and handsome, but a little dark."
Boss Xu, who was standing by, was ashamed when he heard his mumbling...
"Go ahead, time is of the essence."
Hearing this, Su Jiqing nodded and walked towards his own pharmacy...
Boss Xu looked at him, muttering to himself as he sat in his chair, "What is your relationship with Senior Jin?"
"Friend or foe?"
"Let's wait until he wakes up."
——
I don’t know how long it took…
Seeing that it was getting late, Yan An put on his clothes contentedly.
"Let's go back."
Lu Jingzhi nodded slightly, put his arms around her waist and buried his face in her arms.
Yan An hugged him back and then flew towards Xianyuan City.
Suddenly, Yan An pinched the soft flesh on his waist in annoyance.
"You've been eating all day, and you're still eating?"
Lu Jingzhi raised his eyes with an unsatisfied look, "Of course this is not enough."
Just now, he peeled open the small bag with his hands and put the white spirit fruit into his mouth to taste it again.
"Hmph, I don't want to pay attention to you."
At night, the breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of coolness.
After dinner, the two of them came to the courtyard of the house and admired the bright moon together.
They spread out the soft straw mat and lay side by side.
"Jingzhi, when are we going back?" Yan An leaned gently on his broad chest and asked softly.
Lu Jingzhi stroked her hair gently with his hand, "Let's completely absorb this soul-replenishing milk before heading back."
Yan An nodded slightly, "Okay, I'll help you protect the law."
Afterwards, Lu Jingzhi used his spiritual power to get into the storage ring.
When he reached out to take the soul-replenishing milk placed aside, he unexpectedly found a letter placed next to it.
Out of curiosity, he took it out and examined it carefully. It turned out to be an invitation to an alchemy competition.
He took out the invitation from his ring, opened it and took a look at the entry date.
"My lady, look, there are only five days left until the Alchemy Competition begins."
Yan An was stunned at first, but when he saw that what he was holding was the invitation letter sent by Xu Mucheng, the president of the Alchemy Association, he remembered that Xu Mucheng had asked Lu Jingzhi for help before.
"My lady, why don't we start our journey home tomorrow."
"As for this soul-replenishing milk, we can wait until after the game to absorb it slowly. What do you think?"
However, after hearing this, Yan An sat up straight and shook his head.
"No! We should return as quickly as possible tonight on the Ark. Then you should immediately enter a state of seclusion and concentrate on absorbing the Soul Replenishing Milk, striving to raise your soul power to the mustard seed level."
"This way, we'll be more confident in participating in the Alchemy Competition."
"Why?"
Yan An hit his forehead with his hand in annoyance, "Stupid, because this will help you make the elixir."
