Luo Qingxian really couldn't imagine what the High Priest would think when they returned and found out Luo Xiu used a bag of snacks to trick Tu Tu into wasting all the Heaven and Earth Treasures in the Medicine Garden.
However, in her opinion, the High Priest would at most just scold Luo Xiu a bit and wouldn't really do anything to him.
Because she felt the High Priest was very fond of Luo Xiu.
She naturally knew about Luo Xiu's relationship with the High Priest, because Luo Xiu had talked to her about it more than once.
And even if Luo Xiu and the High Priest didn't have that relationship, just based on Luo Xiu giving the Creation Green Lotus to the Ancient Elf Tree, it was entirely worthy of this whole garden of Heaven and Earth Treasures.
After all, there was nothing more valuable in this world than the Creation Green Lotus.
After a long time.
Luo Xiu used the "Nine Suns Creation Technique" to absorb enough medicinal power, and the Fortune-Forming Power that Lin Xiyue had drained was replenished.
Looking at the noticeably emptier Medicine Garden, then at Tu Tu sitting in the tree happily enjoying snacks, Luo Xiu suddenly felt a pang of guilt, thinking he was really too sly, using snacks to trick a little girl who was thousands of years old.
"Tu Tu, I have to go now."
"What? You're leaving already? Tu Tu's going to miss you so much."
"..."
...
At the gates of Everlasting City.
Tu Tu clung tightly to Luo Xiu's leg, her bright big eyes glistening with tears, saying, "Elephant Trunk, when will you come back to see Tu Tu?"
Luo Xiu reached out and ruffled her hair, "I might come back anytime. After I go to the Celestial Realm and you leave Divine Oracle Cave Heaven, I'll take you out to play."
"Okay! Tu Tu is so happy!"
"Then I'm leaving."
"Goodbye, Elephant Trunk!"
"Aren't you going to let go of my leg?"
"Oh."
"Tu Tu, I'll tell you again, when An Ran wants you to cling to my leg, it doesn't mean literally to hold my leg."
Tu Tu scratched her head with her small hand, her face full of confusion, "What? Isn't that just holding the leg?"
"Sigh."
Luo Xiu gently shook his head and sighed, waving his hand as he said, "I'm leaving."
"..."
After bidding farewell to Tu Tu, Luo Xiu and Luo Qingxian directly returned to Sky Divine City.
However, on the way back to Sky Divine City, there were some "small detours"āthey stayed near Thousand Eyes Lake for nearly four hours.
Because the scenery of Thousand Eyes Lake was beautiful and the Spiritual Energy was abundant, it was a perfect place to make love.
And Luo Xiu not only made love but also "generated electricity for love," fully utilizing his Thunder Path Physique, with his body continuously emitting lightning, hitting eleven times per second!
Luo Qingxian was pressed onto a large stone by the lake by Luo Xiu, only feeling that Luo Xiu had completely overwhelmed her.
However, this time she was very satisfied, because she extracted enough Fortune-Forming Power.
And when passing by Thousand Eyes Lake, she herself actively asked for the Fortune-Forming Power.
...
Sky Divine City.
North City Lord's Mansion.
Luo Xiu directly went to the Heavenly Light Spirit Gathering Place he had visited once before.
Luo Qingxian, upon learning he wanted to refine the fifth piece of Dao Jade, couldn't help but worry.
Because the more Dao Jade, the harder it is to refine successfully, and the greater the risk and damage.
However, on this endless path of the Great Dao, as a cultivator, how can one gain harvest without facing trials and tribulations?
Therefore, she didn't try to dissuade him, just silently acted as Luo Xiu's protector.
"Your Majesty, this Heavenly Light Spirit Gathering Place doesn't seem to be working well, why not go to my sleeping quarters?"
Luo Xiu quickly stripped off his clothes, sat cross-legged, and said with a smile, "I'm practically a rat hunted by everyone in the Upper Realm, so I doubt going to your Heavenly Plains is appropriate, those old folks in the Council Hall definitely wouldn't welcome me."
To this, Luo Qingxian was a bit helpless, knowing that recently Luo Xiu had been robbing everywhere, leading to his reputation being extremely terrible in the Three Thousand Worlds.
"You must control yourself, and you're not allowed to force it, refining the fifth piece of Dao Jade is very dangerous."
"And it seems less than two years have passed since you last refined a Dao Jade?"
Luo Xiu laughed and said: "I actually intended to wait two years before considering the next Dao Jade, but with the great tribulation approaching, I don't have that much time and energy to wait.
"..."
In a blink.
When Luo Xiu sacrificed his "Demon Heaven's Lift" and formally began refining the fifth piece of Dao Jade, he finally understood how dangerous it was, as Luo Qingxian had said before.
The unspeakable pain throughout his body and the price he had to pay was even more severe than the total price for the previous four Dao Jades!
"Damn itā¦"
Luo Xiu's face contorted with pain, his pores bleeding, and he looked at Luo Qingxian with difficulty and said, "Xian'er⦠can I still regret now?"
Luo Qingxian rolled her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, if you regret now, it really will be all for nothing."
Hearing this, Luo Xiu took a deep breath and didn't say any more.
Luo Qingxian sternly reminded, "As long as you stay steady from now on, you can succeed since you have Fortune-Forming Power. However, it might take a very long time."
"Persevere and you'll succeedā¦" Luo Xiu chuckled and said, "Xian'er, I'll take this bowl of chicken soup you offered me!"
"..."
...
Day after day.
In the blink of an eye.
Half a year passed by quietly.
Celestial Realm.
In a certain mysterious place, several Heavenly Emperor-level giants were seldomly gathered.
If this scene were seen by the world, it would surely create an immense uproar.
In the pitch-black void, only a few pairs of eyes emitted strange lights.
Amid the silence.
A woman's impatient voice suddenly emerged from the void: "Hierarch, you gathered all of us with such fanfare, what exactly happened?"
After a short while.
An aged voice suddenly emerged from the void: "Empress, please be patient."
He continued, "Just yesterday, I captured a trace of Xue Aogu's Divine Sense."
Someone then asked, "Xue Aogu, is he the guy sent to the Mortal Realm to monitor Luo Hao?"
"That's right."
"So, Hierarch, what exactly happened?"
The Hierarch said calmly, "The cauldron is ready, the time is ripe, this 'Sky Elixir Plan' can formally commence."
Someone suddenly chuckled, "Hehehehe⦠I've been waiting eagerly for this!"
"Amitabha, goodness, goodness."
A monk folded his hands, walked out slowly, and said, "However, Xue Aogu is probably dead, so someone needs to descend to construct the Starry Sky Bridge. Only then can our Heavenly Dao Alliance's army march straight in."
"Buddha Killer⦠how about you take this trip?"
"Amitabha, goodness, goodness. Since the Hierarch has spoken, this poor monk will go on this journey."
"Buddha Killer, remember, once you descend, just kill the Holy Grandmother and control the Construct Wood, then I will contact you from above."
Buddha Killer took a step forward, and suddenly vanished from the pitch-black void.
"Mortal Realm, huh?"
"This poor monk is coming."
"..."
