"What should we do now?" Liu Xiner said urgently, her expression frantic as a sudden thought struck her:
"Ye Luo, why donât you just do what you did with my sister? The TV said that doing âthatâ can undo the effects of the potion, right?"
"I..."
Ye Luoâs lips twitched, stunned by Liu Xinerâs blunt suggestion.
"Isnât she your sister? Are you setting her up?"
Ye Luo looked at Liu Xiner speechlessly.
Liu Xinerâs face reddened as she spoke, "Iâm just trying to save my sister. Besides, sheâs liked you for a long time. Even if you were to do that, she wouldnât be angry. She might even be happy about it."
Ye Luo didnât know how to respond.
"Ye Luo, do you have any other solutions?"
Liu Xiner pressed him again.
"This... No!"
Ye Luo shook his head.
"Then thereâs only this way. Donât hesitate, or it could harm my sisterâs health. Her face is getting hotter by the minute," Liu Xiner said.
"Alright then!"
Ye Luo gritted his teeth, a determined sparkle flaring in his eyes. This was the only solution; otherwise, Liu Shiyunâs body wouldnât be able to take it.
Knowing Liu Xiner said her sister also liked him brought Ye Luo some comfort. In fact, Liu Shiyun, the first beauty he encountered after descending the mountain, had initially captivated his heart, though they hadnât interacted much since then.
Unexpectedly, this chance encounter today had presented such an opportunity, and Ye Luo wondered if he should thank the Alchemist.
He picked up Liu Shiyun and, along with Liu Xiner, left the Liu Family. They then found a hotel and booked a room.
"Maybe we should get two rooms?"
When Ye Luo booked one room, Liu Xiner, her cheeks reddening, suggested.
Realizing the implication, Ye Luo felt embarrassed and quickly booked two rooms.
At the door of the room, Liu Xiner gave Ye Luo a strange look and said, "Ye Luo, Iâm entrusting my sister to you. You better take good care of her!"
With that, her cheeks flushed as she ran into the neighboring room.
Feeling awkward, Ye Luo carried Liu Shiyun into the room.
After Ye Luo unlocked Liu Shiyunâs acupuncture points, she went wild, pouncing on him like a ferocious tiger.
A fierce and intense battle soon unfolded furiously, the wild sounds filling the room.
The noises even reached Liu Xinerâs ears next door, making her cheeks burn and ruining her mood to rest, leaving her tossing and turning on the bed.
"Damn, why is this hotelâs soundproofing so bad?"
Liu Xiner pouted, clearly displeased, then muttered, "My sister is so loud. Is it necessary to scream like that during that sort of thing?"
Suddenly, Liu Xinerâs cheeks burned even hotter, the blush spreading to her neck, and a strange sensation started coursing through her body, causing her hand to involuntarily...
Meanwhile, at the peak of the mountain where Ye Luo found the Spirit Vein, a figure flew through the air â an elder in a long robe. As he flew above the Spirit Vein-laden mountain, his eyes suddenly sharpened, sweeping downwards.
"The natureâs spiritual energy here is so dense. Whatâs here?"
The elder sensed the rich spiritual energy within the mountain, his brow furrowed, releasing a powerful Spiritual Sense.
"Spirit Stone!"
His pupils constricted immediately, his face showing disbelief.
"This is actually a Spirit Vein!"
The elder exclaimed in shock, then started laughing wildly, "Haha, the heavens favor the Nalan Family!"
His laughter echoed, disturbing Hei Zi, Hu Zi, and several others within the Vein. Hei Zi and Hu Zi quickly emerged.
Whoosh!
The elder appeared instantly, his authoritative gaze fixing on the two.
"Who are you?"
Hei Zi and Hu Zi asked the sudden intruder sharply, their faces solemn.
"You two mere Saint Realm youths are so lucky to find a Spirit Vein, but this Vein is wasted on just the two of you!"
The elder scoffed coldly, contempt flickering in his eyes.
"You old man, are you looking for a fight?"
Hei Zi retorted defiantly.
"Die!"
The elderâs eyes hardened, a chilling gleam sweeping towards Hei Zi, unleashing a terrifying force that instantaneously exploded Hei Ziâs body, blood spraying everywhere.
Hu Zi froze, then exclaimed, "Hei Zi!"
"I will kill you!"
Fury flashed in Hu Ziâs eyes as he charged at the elder.
"Foolish ant!"
The elder sneered disdainfully, pointing a finger which caused Hu Ziâs body to also explode, blood splattering all around, none reaching the elder.
After disposing of Hei Zi and Hu Zi, the elder walked into the Spirit Vein, his laughter soon resounding again.
As the tide ebbed and flowed, and Yue Luo rose and set, a new day quickly dawned.
In a hotel room in Liu City, the air was thick with the scent of hormones, and the room was a mess.
Sunlight streamed into the room as Liu Shiyunâs eyelashes fluttered slightly, her eyes slowly opening.
She first looked confused, then became alert.
Ah!
When Liu Shiyun saw a man sleeping before her, her expression changed drastically, and she screamed after a brief pause.
"Whatâs wrong? What happened?"
Ye Luo was abruptly woken and looked around in confusion.
"Ye Luo, why are you here? Did we..."
Liu Shiyun stared at Ye Luo, her face full of astonishment and confusion, clueless about what had happened.
"Youâre awake?"
Ye Luo looked at Liu Shiyun, embarrassment coloring his gaze.
