Resurrecting Metaphysics - C125
“You don’t need to format too much when refining the medicine, when it should be used, when it should be used for awakening, when it should be used for igniting the spirit, and even when it should be used for taking pills. You shouldn’t follow the records in the books and books for refining, only when you have truly forgotten these things and escaped the restraints of these things can you be considered an outstanding alchemist …” As she taught Ouyang Yu about her own experiences, she began to concoct pills. Ouyang Yu had never had the chance to see a grandmaster level figure concoct a pill. Today was a rare opportunity, but who would be willing to easily miss it? He stared hard at Fu Shang, memorizing all of his movements and words spoken by Ouyang Yu in his heart.
She looked relaxed, every movement natural and comfortable. Under the fluid movements of Fu Shang, a fragrant aroma wafted out from the cauldron. Even after taking a whiff, he could feel that his strength had increased by a lot, and his whole body was brimming with strength.
Ouyang Yu, who was at the side, inwardly exclaimed: “No wonder this thing could increase the strength of a cultivator by a level.” After half a day of refinement, the fragrance of the herbs filled the entire secret room, and a few drops of perspiration appeared on Fu Shang’s face. “Activate!” As she shouted, the boiling cauldron instantly calmed down. With a wave of her hand, five shining pills slowly flew from the cauldron into her hands.
“Little Yu, take a look!” Fu Shang carelessly examined it for a moment before handing it over to Ouyang Yu. Ouyang Yu took the pill and smelt it a few times, intoxicated. “Thank you, Mr. President!” He put the pill away with a smile. None of them knew that Li Lu was looking at them with her mouth raised.
“This brat isn’t even going to let me have a look. I must properly cheat him later on.” Although he thought this in his heart, he still walked over to Ouyang Yu with a smile as if nothing had happened. “Little Yu, now that you have this pill, you should be able to complete the mission easily. When that time comes, don’t forget to treat us!”
“Definitely!” Ouyang Yu smiled. However, he noticed that Miss Li Lu’s smile had a hint of strangeness to it. Ouyang Yu did not think too much and knew that he could not delay the matter with the child any longer. He bid farewell to Fu Shang. Just as Ouyang Yu left the Medicine Hall, Li Lu casually lied to Fu Shang and quietly followed behind Ouyang Yu.
Once he left his room, Ouyang Yu bought a handsome horse at a nearby relay station and galloped back to Black Feather City. As soon as they entered the alley, Ouyang Yu sensed Li Lu, who was following behind them. He scratched his head in confusion and asked, “Why is she following me?” Ouyang Yu’s eyes turned and he spasmed from the horse’s back. His fawning was in pain and he ran forward in panic.
“Hmph, I don’t believe that you can outrun my treasure!” Suddenly, he shouted in a low voice, “Baoqi, hurry up and come out. There’s something fun going on!” Just as she finished speaking, a cheerful cry rang in Li Lu’s ears. A large snow-white eagle appeared above Li Lu, flapping its wings at her.
“Baoqi, chase that kid!” Li Lu pointed forward and gently jumped off her horse. She somersaulted in the air and landed steadily on the back of the large bird. Under Li Lu’s light pat, the large condor let out a light cry, flapped its wings, and chased after Ouyang Yu at lightning speed.
“Why is this girl following me?” Ouyang Yu was puzzled, so he pretended to not know anything and rushed forward. Following the shout, a familiar figure blocked Ouyang Yu’s path.
“Ahhh!” Ouyang Yu pretended to be struggling to hold the horse back as he looked at Li Lu in confusion, “Miss Lu, what can I do for you to stop me?”
Li Lu still had a smiling expression on her face as she said, “Little Yuzi, stop pretending with big sister. Big sister doesn’t know what you’re thinking!”
Ouyang Yu had a crazy idea, “Hey, Miss Lu, don’t be confused. Are you going to call me big brother or am I going to call you big sister? I think I can tell just by looking at her!”
“What’s wrong, did you feel wronged being your sister?!” Li Lu pouted.
“No, I am honored, but I prefer you to be my sister!” Ouyang Yu’s pair of shifty eyes constantly swept over Li Lu’s enchanting body. This made Li Lu feel uncomfortable. She covered her chest with her hands, “Hey, what are you trying to do?”
Ouyang Yu then coughed dryly and looked away reluctantly. “Sister Lu, you don’t need to be so easy to see through. I can’t control my own eyes!”
“You …” Li Lu’s face turned slightly red. Her body flashed as she threw a slap towards Ouyang Yu.
“You don’t have to be so angry to call you little sister!” Ouyang Yu smiled bitterly as he took the opportunity to dodge away. “Miss Lu, since you like to use this method to solve a problem, that’s fine. If you can touch my body in ten moves, how about I call you sister?” Ouyang Yu had a sly smile on his face.
“Fine, I’ll see what abilities you have!” But if I win, you still have to agree to one more condition! ” The normally competitive Li Lu was slightly angered when she saw herself being looked down upon by someone younger than her.
“I wonder what conditions Sister Lu would like to add?” Ouyang Yu looked relaxed.
“Every time you call out to me, you have to first bow, then call me Auntie Sis!”
“Oh, this condition is a little exaggerated!” Ouyang Yu frowned.
“What, are you afraid?!” Li Lu had a complacent expression.
“Hehe, I am indeed a little afraid, but for the sake of having a beautiful little sister in my life who is as beautiful as an immortal, I am willing!” After saying that, Ouyang Yu’s gaze subconsciously shifted to Li Lu’s enchanting body.
“Ge Ge, it’s good that you know it!” When she said the word “good”, she suddenly started. Originally, she and Ouyang Yu were very close, and with her sudden attack, Ouyang Yu’s face turned ugly. Looking at the jade hand that was almost within reach, Ouyang Yu Xie laughed and suddenly fell to the side. Li Lu was secretly happy in her heart. Let’s see if you still dare to be arrogant! However, the smile on her face had not yet faded when Ouyang Yu’s body, which was on the verge of touching the ground, suddenly flew out diagonally from the support of his two hands. Li Lu’s small white hand grabbed nothing but air.
“Hey, you’re so unreasonable!” Ouyang Yu shouted from a big tree.
“Who told you to do it first!” Li Lu giggled as she walked towards Ouyang Yu.
“This girl wants to take advantage of me again!” Ouyang Yu exclaimed in his heart: A woman is indeed a needle at the bottom of the sea.
“That move just now did not count. I was just testing your reaction!” Li Lu suddenly said something and almost caused Ouyang Yu to fall from the tree. “You’re not mistaken, right? That doesn’t count!”
“Yeah, I didn’t mention it to you earlier!”
“Aiya, it’s up to you!” Ouyang Yu smiled speechlessly. “Oh right, what kind of mission did you use that pill to complete? When the time comes, can I come with you?” Li Lu had a delicate and exquisite expression that caused Ouyang Yu’s hatred from earlier to disappear quite a bit.
“No, this quest of mine is very dangerous. If you receive any damage, the president will not skin me alive!”
“How could that be? With your martial arts skills, would you let me take the risk?!” While they were talking, Li Lu had already slowly walked in front of Ouyang Yu’s large tree. How could Ouyang Yu not know what she meant? However, he did not reveal the slightest bit of knowledge. Hehe! “That’s true. With my martial arts skills, I can go anywhere I want, but why do you want to watch the show?”
“Big brother is doing a task, how can I just watch without doing anything?” Ouyang Yu smiled a few times. “This little sister of yours is really kind. It seems that you have already admitted to being my brother!”
“Of course, what are you still sitting there for? Hurry up and come down!” Her sweet voice made Ouyang Yu’s entire body go limp, and his vigilant mind was set free. With a light leap, he landed gently on the ground. Just as Ouyang Yu landed, Li Lu walked over and extended her hand that was even more tender than jade. There was an enchanting smile on her face as she signaled Ouyang Yu to pull it.
Ouyang Yu’s mind was also shaken, and he could not help but stretch out his hand. Come on, come on! ” Li Lu screamed anxiously in her heart. Ouyang Yu suddenly saw a hint of anxiousness flash in Li Lu’s eyes, but she abruptly pulled back her hand that was halfway there. Only then did he remember the bet they had made earlier. He thought to himself, “Sister Lu, that move of yours is really poisonous!” Ouyang Yu gave her a thumbs up in admiration.
