An Wan put the spirit-testing stone into her spatial storage, ate fruit with her three adorable spirit pets, and quietly waited for the Lu family to process the matter of cultivating immortality.
Five minutes later, the Lu family finally finished processing the matter of cultivating immortality and calmed down.
Then, An Wan opened the sandalwood box and showed them ten top-grade Marrow Cleansing Pills.
"What is this, Wanwan?" Lu Sen instinctively knew that the pill was a good thing, but he didn't know its effects.
Lu Chunhe licked his lips. "It looks delicious, and it smells wonderful too."
"All you ever think about is eating," Yunping said, gently patting his arm.
Lu Yanshu squinted, showing great interest in the box of pills in An Wan's hand.
It's definitely a treasure.
Lu Jingxing stared blankly at the pills, when suddenly a thought flashed through his mind. "Sister, could these pills help us cultivate immortality?"
An Wan nodded, "Of course, do you want to? As long as you agree, you can take this Marrow Cleansing Pill today."
"Marrow Cleansing Pill?" Lu Zhili leaned closer and took out a milky-white pill from the wooden box.
"Want some?" An Wan tempted him gently. "If you eat it, you can cultivate immortality!"
"You can only cultivate immortality by eating it?" As a novice, he still didn't understand much about cultivating immortality.
An Wan nodded like a chick pecking at rice. "Of course, only after taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill and undergoing the cleansing and marrow-removing process can the meridians throughout the body be opened up, allowing for the best absorption of spiritual energy and cultivation of techniques."
"Alright! I'll eat first." With that, Lu Zhili stuffed the Marrow Cleansing Pill into his mouth.
He would never let anyone know that he actually wanted to eat the Marrow Cleansing Pill; it must taste delicious.
An Wan reached out to stop him, but it was too late. "Fifth Brother, you're too hasty. After taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill, your body will undergo a very painful process of cleansing and refining your marrow. You have to be able to withstand it."
"Huh? Is it really that painful?" Lu Zhili asked with a pained expression. The thought of the pain made him want to spit out the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
But as soon as it entered his mouth, it melted immediately, and he could even taste it.
Only a faint fragrance remained in my throat.
"Fifth Brother, you can do it, believe in yourself. Here, drink another cup of spiritual spring water to ease the pain."
An Wan took out a cup of spiritual spring water from her space and gave it to him to drink. Then she told him to go back to his room and lie down, as he would be covered in grime again tomorrow and would need to take a bath.
"Little sister, you must come to see me often, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it." Lu Zhili left reluctantly, wanting to stay in her room, but she refused.
"Okay, don't worry, tonight there will be five of us with you: Jia Yan, Guai Guai, Dong Xi, and Wu Tian. I guarantee nothing will happen." An Wan gave him an "OK" sign.
"Okay, you must come and see me." Lu Zhili had a habitual dependence on her. Even though he lived in a new house, he still often came to sleep in the same bed with her.
Since Lu Zhili had taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Lu Sen, as his father, naturally had to set an example.
He held the Marrow Cleansing Pill but hesitated to take it, asking, "Wanwan, are you sure nothing will happen?"
She shook her head. "Nothing will happen, Dad, don't worry!"
I didn't expect Lu Sen to be so timid.
"Dad, drink a cup of the spiritual spring water first, and it will ensure everything goes smoothly."
"What's wrong with you? Your daughter is telling you to eat, so hurry up and eat. Stop talking nonsense." Yunping patted Lu Sen's arm and urged him.
She was faster than him, drinking a cup of spiritual spring water and then taking a marrow cleansing pill.
"Hey! Honey, you... let me go first, why are you in such a hurry?" Lu Sen wanted to stop her but didn't have time. He admired his wife's decisiveness and how she was becoming more and more heroic.
Not wanting to be laughed at by the children, he quickly drank the spiritual spring water and then took a top-grade marrow cleansing pill.
“I’ll take it too, I trust Wanwan.” Lu Chunhe was the fourth to take the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
Next came Lu Jingxing, then Lu Yanshu, and finally Lu Jingming, who has always been timid.
"Jiayan, take good care of Wanwan. We'll have good news for you tomorrow." Yunping led her husband and several children out of Anwan's room.
They all felt their bodies were already reacting and needed to hurry back to their rooms to rest and prepare for the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
An Wan and her three spirit pets were not idle either. They tidied up the room quickly, and then came to the living room with Lu Jiayan, intending to sit there and keep watch all night.
It got dark quickly.
They ate snacks, played cards, moved quietly, and even suppressed their laughter.
They were afraid of disturbing the Lu family.
——
Old Master He's residence
He Yurou and Jiang Wanruo knew that something was wrong with the Lu family, so they didn't dare to go to them that night. Instead, they stayed at home, watching TV and eating ice cream.
He Sichen, Fang Xing, and Han Ling were taking a walk on a village path.
Summer is hot, and it's cooler outside than inside.
"Boss, aren't you going to take a look?" Fang Xing noticed that He Sichen hadn't spoken for a long time, so he knew that He Sichen had something on his mind about what An Wan was going to do tonight.
The eldest brother had his spiritual root tested in the morning, while the Lu family members had theirs tested in the afternoon; it's unclear what the results would be.
But the fact that they're staying home and not letting anyone disturb them means something big must be happening.
Fang Xing felt that An Wan was too wary of the boss, even though he hadn't done anything wrong.
And she's strange too, not like a child, too smart.
"You dare to go?" He Sichen glanced at Fang Xing, his thick, dark eyebrows furrowing in displeasure.
An Wan is a "tiger mom". Don't be fooled by her smiling and harmless appearance in front of others. Only he knows her true colors.
If she's willing to scheme against others, her methods must be so sophisticated that the victims won't even know how they died or who caused their deaths.
"I dare not go." Fang Xing lowered his head. He was terrified of An Wan, a fear that came from the bottom of his heart.
Especially after learning today that Anri, whom Nishino mentioned, is Anwan, my fear of her is as deep as the ocean and as high as the sky.
