453: Chapter 430: Xiu Niang’s Threat_2 453: Chapter 430: Xiu Niang’s Threat_2 After hearing this, Lu Chuan’s brow furrowed even deeper as he said, “Setting aside whether I can find a way to help you reconstruct your body in such a short time, even if I really can find one, how can I be sure that you will definitely leave Nanqing’s body?”

Xiu Niang said, “I can swear an oath to the heavenly way.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan immediately fell silent.

The fact that the other party dared to take the initiative to swear an oath to the heavenly way probably meant she was not deceiving him.

“I truly want to reconcile with you this time.

I know it’s hard for you to trust me again after I deceived you before, and that you have grievances against me.

To compensate, I can tell you the location of an ancient ruin as compensation.

Within these ancient ruins, it’s very likely that something astonishing is hidden.

The value of this information alone is enough to make up for my mistake.

This can be included in the heavenly oath, but of course, I can only tell you after you help me reconstruct my body,” Xiu Niang said with a sincere face.

Lu Chuan pondered deeply, considering the current situation.

If he didn’t want Mu Nanqing to die, it seemed he had no choice but to agree to Xiu Niang’s proposal.

After thinking it over, he said, “I can agree to your request, but you need to leave her body now.

I can also swear an oath to the heavenly way, guaranteeing not to harm you.

This way, there’s no need for us to rush to find a method for reconstructing your body within a month.”

Xiu Niang shook her head and said, “You swear an oath to the heavenly way not to harm me, but you could instruct others to kill me.

The human heart is unpredictable.

I must have something to rely on for our cooperation to be achieved.

The life of Mu Nanqing is my bargaining chip, and you must find a way to reconstruct my body within a month.

Otherwise, if I really listen to you and leave Mu Nanqing’s body, you might just string me along until my Nascent Soul dissipates.

Then I would have gained nothing at all.”

“I have already begun to overdraw my last bit of strength, and this process is irreversible, so you have just one month.

There is no room for negotiation on this matter.”

“If you insist on being stubborn, then I can only perish together with Mu Nanqing.”

Seeing Xiu Niang’s resolute attitude and knowing there was no room for negotiation, Lu Chuan, after careful consideration, looked at Xiu Niang and said, “What kind of cooperation is this?

This is clearly outright coercion!”

A smile curled at the corner of Xiu Niang’s mouth as she said, “You’re talking nonsense.”

Then she suddenly stripped off her clothes and gave Lu Chuan a show, before saying, “This is what you call outright.”

Speechless, Lu Chuan said, “Put your clothes on quickly.

I can agree to your terms, but you also have to promise me that you won’t do anything improper with Nanqing’s body this month.”

Smiling, Xiu Niang said, “Don’t worry, I’m not stupid enough to anger you.

That would only cut off my own escape.

However, I have one more condition that you must agree to and swear an oath to the heavenly way to fulfill.”

Lu Chuan asked, “What condition?”

Xiu Niang said with a smile, “After you help me reconstruct my body, you cannot harm me.

And then, within this month, we must sleep together once a day.

I’m worried you might not find a way to reconstruct my body, and this way, even if I die, at least I’ll have had my fill of pleasure.”

Lu Chuan’s eyes widened at her words and he immediately refused, “Impossible!

I can swear an oath to the heavenly way that I won’t harm you after helping you reconstruct your body, but sleeping with you every day is out of the question!”

Xiu Niang coquettishly shook Lu Chuan’s hand and said, “Ah, what’s the big deal?

After all, it’s Mu Nanqing’s body.

Doing this wouldn’t be a betrayal to her.

Besides, haven’t we harmonized well today?

Are you sure you’re not attracted to my skills?”

With a very serious tone, Lu Chuan said, “There is no negotiation on this matter, so stop trying to seduce me here.

Helping you reconstruct your body in a month is already a task as tough as scaling heaven, and if I were to sleep with you daily, you might as well wait for death.”

A sly look flashed in Xiu Niang’s eyes as she said with a smile, “Okay, then I won’t insist on sleeping with you every day, but you must swear an oath to the heavenly way that you won’t harm me after you reconstruct my body.”

Actually, her real goal was just to get Lu Chuan to agree not to harm her.

In order to make it easier for Lu Chuan to agree, she deliberately added another condition that she knew Lu Chuan would never accept.

Lu Chuan said, “I don’t trust you right now, you must first swear an oath by the Heavenly Dao, if there’s no issue, I will naturally follow and swear by the Heavenly Dao.”

Xiu Niang laughed and said, “Okay, okay, you were kissing me so passionately in bed before, and now you say you don’t trust me, really breaks my heart.”

Lu Chuan’s face darkened as he said, “If you bring this matter up again, our cooperation will be unnecessary.”

Xiu Niang chuckled and said, “I’m just teasing you, I’ll swear by the Heavenly Dao right now.”

Then, she did as Lu Chuan requested and swore her oath by the Heavenly Dao.

With the constraints of a Heavenly Dao oath, Xiu Niang could no longer deceive Lu Chuan this time.

Lu Chuan also swore a Heavenly Dao oath that he would not harm Xiu Niang.

After establishing their cooperation, Lu Chuan began to worry about how to help Xiu Niang reconstruct her flesh within this short month.

Generally speaking, there were two methods to reconstitute a body, one was to use a spiritual medicine at least five hundred years old as a vessel for the Nascent Soul, converting the spiritual medicine into a body.

This was the relatively simpler method, but since the spiritual medicine was fragile by nature, the reconstituted body would also be very fragile, and it would lose some functions that a real body possesses.

The other method was to rely on an enormous amount of Heaven and Earth Treasures to specially forge a body, and then merge the Nascent Soul with it.

This process would consume a vast quantity of Heaven and Earth Treasures, and Lu Chuan could not find so many in one month, plus the forging process was also very time-consuming, so he immediately dismissed this method.

“Now, I can only try to find a five-hundred-year-old spiritual medicine first.”

A hundred-year spirit herb was extremely rare, and after growing for five hundred years, the spiritual medicine would usually begin to awaken spirit wisdom, evading people’s harvesting attempts.

Sometimes, even if it was picked, it could escape if one was not careful.

Therefore, the most hopeful places to find a five-hundred-year-old spiritual medicine were those deep, old forests that were rarely known to people.

Lu Chuan didn’t want to waste time, so he set off towards the deep old forests the next day, hoping to try his luck at finding a five-hundred-year-old spiritual medicine.

He arrived at a quiet woodland, and before reaching the real depths of the forest, he stopped.

It was because he sensed that someone was following him.

He released his Divine Sense to perceive his surroundings, glanced around, and then shouted loudly, “Come out, all of you, stop skulking about!”

No sooner had he spoken than five figures swiftly appeared and surrounded him.

The five figures, four men and one woman, all exuded the terrifying aura of the Nascent Soul Stage.

They were the five divine spirits of the Divine Alliance!
