If Lu Xian is so terrifying, then why was Xi Fu able to act so recklessly in the Heavenly Court, making every immortal fear him? Judging from his appearance, he couldn't even beat the foreign god Hua Er, so his cultivation level shouldn't be that high. Was that guy a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong in the Immortal Realm?
After standing in the hall for a while, Wang Yao slowly walked out, completely bewildered. In the summer night of Yunling, the chirping of insects and the croaking of frogs filled the air. Wang Yao pulled out the system and began to check.
After losing 500 merit points, he didn't open the system again, and even when he successfully implicated Lü Xian and Wei Cai, he didn't bother to read the system notifications. But now that Lü Xian said he had returned the 500 merit points to him and even gave him 100 more, he couldn't resist checking it out.
"The host's current system level is 3, with 105.8 merit points. 0 points are needed to advance to the next level. Skill level is 3, with 780 skill points. 620 skill points are needed to advance to the next level."
"Spiritual power level 6, early stage of Qi Refining. Spiritual power value: 5192 points are needed to advance to the next level. Magic weapon level 6, mana value: 6300, 100 mana value are needed to advance to the next level."
Wang Yao looked at the system and, without saying a word, immediately upgraded it. He guessed that his level was still too low, which was why Lü Xian had him completely under his thumb. If he were at a similar level to Lü Xian, how could Lü Xian dare to threaten him like this?
Having merits brings convenience. In the darkness of night, outside the lobby of the Qunshan Hotel, the air currents surged rapidly. Unbeknownst to him, Wang Yaoyue's old system had already reached level 6. With 21.8 merits remaining, he needed 74.2 more to reach level 7.
Since he had decided not to kill Wang Yao, Lü Xian didn't mind giving him some merit. After all, Lü Xian had a family in the immortal realm, and he and Wei Cai were deeply in love in the mortal realm, and they were inseparable. If Wang Yao broke them up without saying a word, wouldn't that be disappointing?
In any case, mortals have short lifespans, and spending a hundred years with her is just a fleeting moment on the long road to immortality for Lü Xian. It's no big deal to be delayed for a while. Besides, the feeling of Xiao Cai's whip lashing him was truly exhilarating. Deep down, Lü Xian was actually quite grateful to Wang Yao.
How did he discover that beneath Xiao Cai's gentle exterior lay such a fiery and crazy personality? Whenever she led him around the room and wantonly tormented him, Lü Xian felt as if his soul was about to ascend to heaven, and he felt so happy that he didn't even want to be an immortal anymore.
Each time, he preferred not to use magic to heal his wounds, just wanting to prolong that pleasure a little longer. Each time, he would only hastily heal his injuries before Xiao Cai was about to torture him again, just to avoid making Xiao Cai feel sorry for him and unable to bring herself to do it.
Lu Xian felt that meeting Xiao Cai had finally given meaning to his thousands of years of immortal life. To be honest, giving Wang Yao 600 merits for this was not too much.
The reason he planned to kill Wang Yao was ultimately for work-related reasons. This Wang Yao was so young, yet he dared to lay a hand on him. Who knows what kind of trouble he would cause in the future? Killing him as soon as possible would be a way to eliminate a potential threat for the office, the Heavenly Court, and even the Six Realms.
But when he saw that when he made his move, the residual effects of the "Charming Maiden Lily Pill" were taking effect on Wang Yao's body, and his killing intent unconsciously subsided.
Lu Xian was not Hua Tuo; he had seen the Maiden Lily Pill before. This kind of elixir was something even he could not obtain in the Heavenly Court. It was said that the Maiden Lily Pill had different fragrances and medicinal properties depending on which fairy made it.
He certainly wouldn't have time to investigate which fairy made Wang Yao's Jade Maiden Lily Pill, but even if he guessed with his toes, he would realize that besides Fairy Caixia, no one else could have given Wang Yao the Jade Maiden Lily Pill.
At first, when Wang Yao used Caixia to threaten Lü Xian, Lü Xian didn't really take it to heart. He simply couldn't connect Caixia and Wang Yao together. It was like a dazzling female star on stage saying that her lover was a street vendor. The contrast was too great, simply beyond his imagination.
But at this moment, he couldn't help but consider this possibility. He had no idea that Wang Yao's immortal body had almost collapsed after being beaten by the professor. He only felt that it was inconceivable that Caixia had given Wang Yao the Maiden Lily Pill. His usual cautious personality made him stop immediately.
Not only did Lü Xian not kill Wang Yao, he also returned the 500 merits he had been punished with, and even gave him 100 merits in return. Strangely enough, since he couldn't kill Wang Yao, he decided to win him over. This was Lü Xian's principle in dealing with things.
Wang Yao, of course, could not guess what Lü Xian was thinking. However, he already understood that as a newly appointed matchmaker, the environment around him was far from the harmonious one he saw on the surface. Lü Xian was capable of acting on a whim and killing immortals at will, no less so than Li Chu, who was suffering from a murderous addiction.
His path to immortality was extremely perilous, and many more hardships awaited him in the future. After upgrading his system level outside the lobby, Wang Yao pondered for a while before turning around, entering the hotel, taking the elevator, and returning to room 815.
"Hey! Why did it take so long?" Hua Tuo asked hurriedly as soon as he entered the room.
Wang Yao glanced at him and saw that it was already past midnight. Hui Shuo hadn't gone to sleep either, and was staring at him with wide eyes, full of energy. After all, he was also feeling the pinch of losing so much money.
“I got the money back for you. Didn’t I tell you to deposit it in the bank? Why are you still carrying this money?” Wang Yao asked, dissatisfied.
"Um... Mom and Dad, that bank's business practices are so strange. Look at this card, you can get one for 10 yuan, one for 100 yuan, one for 1,000 yuan, and even one for 10,000 yuan? It's not even a size bigger, this...?"
