Chapter 560: Chapter 355: Potion_3

"Is it because of the medicine?"

"Hmph... Changtian, you sure catch on fast."

Lou Ji let out a light chuckle, her eyes deep and cold. With a flip of her hand, a small jade bottle appeared in her grasp.

Inside the jade bottle was some viscous red liquid.

As Lou Ji held it up to her eyes for a closer look, she said softly,

"This substance can drive a person to become extremely murderous, as if turning them into a beast of desire, yet it does not cause one to lose their mind like the Manic Demon Pill does.

"And what’s more important is that it can be spread through the blood of the user."

"...."

Upon hearing that, Xu Yuan’s mouth twitched, and he quietly clicked his tongue.

Dammit...

Although the plot he was originally familiar with had started going off the rails, it now seemed even more out of control.

In the story of Cangyuan Chronicles,

the Wrapped Chest Princess, who had never appeared on the scene, was most likely killed in the conspiracies of the Northern Frontier, which was also probably the reason why the battle of the Northern Frontier came to a rest in Cangyuan Chronicles.

Dayan wasn’t successful against the Barbarian Tribes, but the cautious military campaigns also meant that Northern Border City was never lost.

Yet now, the situation was entirely different.

The Barbarian Tribes were annihilated, the Northern Border Sects’ elite troops were decimated, and the war was gradually escalating.

It had even escalated to the point where some of the products from the instances in Cangyuan Chronicles were gradually being brought to the forefront...

What Lou Ji was holding in her hand was something from the Wanyao Valley’s Ten Thousand Caverns instance.

"....."

With her keen senses, Lou Ji noticed the change in Xu Yuan’s expression in that instant and, with a slightly stern voice, she said,

"Changtian, even I, who am an expert in poisons, find it hard to comprehend the workings of this substance. However, you seem to really know something?

"If you know something, tell it to me straight. This is no joking matter."

Xu Yuan was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice:

"I indeed know a little."

Lou Ji raised an eyebrow, her lips parting slightly:

"What?"

Xu Yuan smiled:

"What’s in it for me if I tell you?"

The heavy atmosphere suddenly dissipated. Lou Ji’s beautiful eyes and brows twitched, and a dangerous curve formed on her lips as she took a leisurely step towards him, drawing out her voice:

"Oh... Changtian, are you asking for a reward from me?"

Xu Yuan, sitting on a cushion, backed away slightly and coughed lightly:

"Just stop bullying Tianyan."

The Washboard Saintess is no match for this great seductress. It’s utter despair.

Seeing the affection Lou Ji displayed,

there was no arguing, no fighting back. He could only watch helplessly, then go back to his room to sulk.

"...."

Lou Ji’s steps faltered, and her eyes looked slightly uninterested as her slender index finger traced her red lips:

"Just that? I was thinking of rewarding you with a kiss, Changtian."

"Heh."

Xu Yuan laughed dryly, somewhat disdainfully, and said in a low voice, "I wouldn’t want it..."

Before he could finish,

Smack.

A fragrant breeze wafted over, and his shoulder was pressed down by a wickedly soft touch. A red lip mark appeared on Xu Yuan’s cheek.

Lou Ji ruffled Xu Yuan’s hair, her eyes brimming with laughter as she said:

"What I want to give you... you have to accept even if you don’t want to."

With that, she glanced sideways at the room next door and said softly,

"Don’t worry, that Saintess is sulking right now and isn’t looking this way."

"......" Xu Yuan.

He sighed and said quietly:

"Alright, let’s get back to business."

Lou Ji’s expression became serious upon hearing this, and she leaned closer, sitting beside him:

"Speak."

Xu Yuan took a deep breath, eyeing the jade bottle in her hands:

"This concoction... it’s likely something that was created in the Ten Thousand Caverns."
