A Love for Three Lives:Monster King Don’t Forget Me - Chapter 42
Chapter 42 The First Time She Made Alchemy by Herself, the Furnace Exploded
Ronghua could see her pale face reflected in the water and another face with a twisted expression for holding back the laughter.
She turned her head to look behind and then continued to gaze at the water after sighing.
Both Xia Pumo and Murong Zhe went to “do their things”, and only she stayed here.
Ronghua gathered a slightly bit of spiritual power in her palm and felt almost killed by a headache. A cold wind blew behind her, and the little puppet kept dangling in the corner, giving her the sense that something was staring at her back.
“Is that necessary for you to guard against me like this?” Ronghua thought.
The little puppet was set by Murong Zhe to watch her, making her unable to do anything now. “He is so afraid that I would go to bother him.”
Ronghua took out the furnace. Since she couldn’t cultivate now, she decided to help Xia Pumo increase some spiritual power!
It might be better to use the power-restoring pill to help Mo strengthen first. He cultivated fast now. If there were not enough nimbus to support him, he would get stuck in someplace because of the lack of spiritual power.
Alas, what an eventful period. The troubles were too sudden to stop!
Rong Hua flicked her finger, and a dark red Imperial Bloodweed appeared on her palm. After a bit of hesitation, she pointed to the furnace and opened it directly. She glanced at the Imperial Bloodweed and then threw it through the opening at the top.
With the help of spiritual power, the Imperial Bloodweed landed at the center of the furnace. She snapped her fingers and threw a flame into it, and then she put the lid on and then waited for the elixir to finish.
Looking at the burning furnace, Ronghua felt irritated. She had never practiced alchemy nor taken the elixir before because she didn’t need it. She had taught others alchemy, but when she taught them, there was no much trouble. She just taught others the method in words and let them go to make alchemy themselves, and then she would have a glance to judge whether the elixir was up to standard!
She had never seen the process of making elixirs.
The last time she used the golden bodhi fruit to make an elixir for Xia Pumo, she made it with the help of her fan. As for whether she could make this elixir now, it depended on the elixir itself.
Xia Pumo’s breath was sharp and disordered.
His voice was deep and short but kept echoing in Murong Zhe’s ears and mind.
“… I’m!”
Xia Pumo embraced Murong Zhe and stroked his smooth back, unwilling to stop. He hugged tighter and tighter, making both of them almost breathless, but he still didn’t want to let go.
Murong Zhe leaned close to Xia Pumo’s mouth and said suddenly, “Mo?”
Xia Pumo responded to him, “Mm! I’m here.”
They gazed at each other. Murong Zhe struggled to reach out his hand, lifted Xia Pumo’s jaw, and kissed him on the mouth.
After a long time, Murong Zhe separated from Xia Pumo slightly with much reluctance. He used his eyelashes to rub Xia Pumo’s gently and whispered, “What will you do if I am no longer here one day?”
Xia Pumo, “…”
Murong Zhe said, “Why don’t you ask me why I say this?”
Xia Pumo said, “Because… you won’t leave me!”
Murong Zhe felt a bit funny, “Are you so confident?”
Xia Pumo gazed at Murong Zhe’s eyes quietly, while Murong Zhe wore a smile on his face. But a moment later, noticing that Xia Pumo remained silent while his face got stiffed for keeping the smile, Murong Zhe immediately realized that there was some trouble.
Sure enough, Xia Pumo let off directly the next second. He took his clothes to cover his half-naked body and then got up. Murong Zhe stopped him hurriedly, “Wait, wait, my sweetheart, I’m wrong. Forgive me. I won’t leave you.”
The loss of his face was nothing, but the loss of his sweetheart was terrible.
Xia Pumo was pulled back by Murong Zhe before leaving. He went into a sulk and refused to look at Murong Zhe. Murong Zhe also knew that Xia Pumo was in a fury, and if he couldn’t comfort Xia Pumo now, he would lose the chance of regret forever.
“Mo~” Murong Zhe almost cried out. If he had known the consequence before, he wouldn’t have been like that anymore. “I just joked with you.”
But Xia Pumo still didn’t speak. Murong Zhe continued, “I just said it in fun. How come will you leave me!”
Xia Pumo finally spoke, “… Yeah, how come will I leave you!”
He looked squarely at Murong Zhe again. This person was always uninhibited and casual and seemed to be unreliable. But this was just Murong Zhe.
Murong Zhe said, “Well, I will never….”
Before Murong Zhe finished his words, Xia Pumo reached out his hands suddenly, holding Murong Zhe’s head with one hand, seizing him around his neck with the other hand, and then he pressed rudely. They kissed again.
All of a sudden, a sound of “bang” interrupted them.
Murong Zhe was so annoyed that he was about to breathe fire, “Who is this?! So wicked!”
The noise came from the direction of Ronghua. Murong Zhe looked at there with displeasure, thinking, “What is the girl doing? She asks for troubles all day.”
Xia Pumo seemed to be quite calm, but in fact, he felt worried in mind, “What is she doing there?”
Thanks to Ronghua, they could be in such a safe place.
Hearing such a loud noise, they had no intention of doing anything else.
“Let’s go to have a look.” Xia Pumo separated from Murong Zhe. He stood up and cleaned himself briefly. After putting on his clothes, he walked over there directly.
Murong Zhe was unpleasant. The one he had just comforted was going to find her again. He almost wanted to kill her, “Ronghua, you always make trouble!”
Ronghua was trying to cover up the smell sending out because it was too terrible.
She hadn’t made elixirs herself before and didn’t know that alchemy would be like this. Although it might be due to her lack of practice and the rash try, the smell was too awful. Besides, it even exploded with a bang at the time of succeeding. Was this alchemy? If it kept going like this, many furnaces would break before she made the elixir. How could it be like this? Would the explosion happen when others made elixirs? Why didn’t it look like this when she taught others about alchemy before?
After Ronghua covered up the smell, she went to look for elixirs between the fragments of the broken furnace, because she had smelled a fragrance, which was the symbol of success.
After looking for a long time, she finally found a few elixirs. Fortunately, there were a few. If there were none, she would have lost the bait along with the fish this time.
“Ronghua.” As hearing Xia Pumo’s voice, Ronghua made the furnace fragments disappear hurriedly, and then she turned around gracefully and responded, “What’s wrong?”
Xia Pumo walked over and felt a little strange when he found that the scene here was not as that he had imagined, “Ronghua, what was that sound just now? It seemed like an explosion?”
Ronghua’s face twitched. Even he could hear it. How far did this sound go!
Ronghua smiled at Xia Pumo embarrassingly, “Nothing. I’m trying my weapon. Look, this is it.”
Ronghua immediately took out a dagger from her space. Looking at it, Ronghua felt her face twitched again. Why did she take out this dagger! How could it make such a loud noise? She couldn’t believe it herself, not to mention Xia Pumo, who had lived so long in the land of the humans.
Xia Pumo frowned, wondering in mind, “Is there anything she can’t tell me?”
He asked, “Ronghua, what the hell are you doing? Are you making the elixir?”
He felt that the noise just now was similar to the one his master made when the furnace exploded during alchemy. Although he didn’t see Ronghua making elixirs, he was sure that the sound just now was related to the alchemy.
Ronghua sighed, “Give me your hand. I have something for you.”
Following her words, Xia Pumo stretched out his hand, but he didn’t know what Ronghua wanted to do. As a result, she gave him several elixirs.
She gave him the elixirs! He didn’t expect that she would have such precious things. Few people on the continent had the spiritual power of both Fire and Wood and could make the elixir, except for a few old cultivators and some members of those great families. If someone wanted to get it, they would have to pay a painful price.
Although there were elixirs on other continents, people had to have the ability to go there first. The spiritual stone for transcending space was not affordable for ordinary people.
The elixirs that Ronghua gave him casually were— what!?
He indeed couldn’t recognize what the pills were.
The color of these pills was a blend of blue and green, as well as somewhat transparent. They looked the same as the elixir made by the golden bodhi fruit last time. There was also a piece of herbs unfolding slightly inside and some elixir patterns outside. Even so, Xia Pumo did not know what they were.
Xia Pumo asked, “Ronghua… what are they?”
Ronghua glanced at him and thought, “Don’t he know what they are? Did I make some mistakes? Isn’t this kind of elixir the power-restoring pill?” She replied, “The power-restoring pill. Aren’t they?
Xia Pumo looked at Ronghua with some shock and could not believe that the things in his hand were the power-restoring pill. He wanted to trust Ronghua, but these elixirs looked too strange! Or was it that he lacked the experience, and in fact, all the pills made by mighty people looked like this?
Xia Pumo said, “The color of the power-restoring pill is mainly green and blue, and usually, the blue one is the best, while the green one is the second. But your elixirs are neither blue nor green, and they are even transparent…” It was tough for him to believe that they were power-restoring pills.
Ronghua glanced at these elixirs and thought, “Aren’t they?”
Xia Pumo couldn’t believe it, because Ronghua no longer had her fan, and according to her words, she was not as powerful as before and should have been unable to make the potent elixirs. But the fact was in front of him, and he had to believe it!
Xia Pumo said, “Ronghua, make alchemy again…”
“No!”
Before he finished speaking, Ronghua interrupted him directly. She was a bit shocked by his words. She felt that one time was enough. Maybe next time, she would find a safe place to make alchemy again, but she would never do it in front of him.
But soon, she felt that her reaction was too intense, so she immediately looked at him with a weak expression and explained, “I’m already tired after making these elixirs, and I don’t have time to make more. I’ll let you have a look the next time I make alchemy!”
A gloom showed in Xia Pumo’s eyes, and he wondered, “Does she still not believe me?”
Ronghua didn’t know what he was thinking. Murong Zhe had dressed and walked here. Seeing that Xia Pumo was in a low mood, he said to Ronghua immediately, “What did you do?”
Feeling speechless and innocent, Ronghua thought, “I also want to know what I did.”
Murong Zhe came over and wanted to argue with Ronghua. But Xia Pumo stopped him and shook his head. Then Murong Zhe stopped talking in well-advised.
Xia Pumo took Murong Zhe away. Ronghua said after them, “Remember to eat the power-restoring pill! Mo.”
Power-restoring pill! Murong Zhe was surprised. Could she even make elixirs? She did be a marvel!
After they left, Ronghua turned to the indifferent expression again, and the emotions in her eyes were so complicated and difficult to discern. If Murong Zhe were still here, after seeing her, he would undoubtedly recall some secrets hidden deep in his heart.
Ronghua waved her hand, and then a black smoke showed up behind her.
“Your Grace,” Shenyuan kneeled and greeted.
After seeing Xia Pumo and Murong Zhe walking away, Ronghua left with her back to them. Shenyuan followed her.
Ronghua asked, “Has Milord Gui done anything?”
Shenyuan said, “Your Grace, he has been quite quiet recently and seems to have no movement. Maybe he has not recovered from being seriously injured by you.”
Ronghua did not believe that Milord Gui would heal his wounds peacefully, “Huh, if he could heal his wounds quietly, then he wouldn’t be Milord Gui.”
Shenyuan was shocked, thinking, “Did I miss anything?” He said quickly, “Your Grace, I haven’t left for a moment.” He indeed didn’t leave in one step. He kept staying there and searching for news.
Ronghua said while walking, “You didn’t leave, but… that couldn’t prevent others from coming to him.”
Others?
“Guixia has been in the Realm of Demons and never left.”
Ronghua stopped, “… It isn’t her.”
Shenyuan said, “So…”
Ronghua turned her head and looked at him, “Milord Gui has more than one daughter.”

Did Milord Gui have any other daughters?
Milord Gui did have another daughter. She left the Realm of Demons early and was as ambitious as her father. In the past, she did not enter the land of gods together with Milord Gui. Otherwise, her ambition would have probably been higher than that of her father.
Shenyuan was a little worried, “Your Grace, you lost the ripple map now. What can you do if she comes to you?”
Ronghua sneered, “I lost my fan. Who else knows this news except the King of Death, those two, as well as you and me?”
