seek immortality

Chapter 160 Weakness
In fact, even Tang Chengnian was afraid of his cold blood.

After only three days, she felt nothing.

Maybe it's because Lianhe and her are enemies.

But this was the first time she had seen someone die in front of her own eyes.

And it's not like she has nothing to do with this person at all... At least she poisoned this person just now!

She tortured her and tried to threaten her.

Tang Chengnian didn't tell anyone about this, in fact, after three days, she had already forgotten her fear and pity for Lian He.

But she still pretended to be a little angel with tears in her eyes.

She herself began to despise herself, but she is still acting.

In fact, people in the Lu family didn't care about Lian He's death, they were really used to it.

But in order to take care of Tang Chengnian's emotions, they also made a sad appearance.

Tang Chengnian had no choice but to express his heartache for the grief of the Lu family members.

Concealing each other's acting skills.

After a month, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They were finally able to smile lightly.

"Don't worry about Lian He's matter, maybe it's the person who colluded with her...she..."

After all, Lu Qiumei did not dare to say the word "kill" in front of Tang Chengnian.

This was the first night Tang Chengnian slept alone.

"I'm fine." Tang Chengnian turned to reassure her.

Lu Qiumei nodded in relief, and left reluctantly.

Everyone in the Lu family was a little worried about Tang Chengnian's mental state.

But she happened to be okay without a heart.

Although I still feel a little overwhelmed and can't sleep...but that's all.

Tang Chengnian fell asleep face up, with his hands solemnly folded on his abdomen.

She didn't have much sorrow in her heart, she just simply couldn't sleep.

As soon as I close my eyes, I think of Lianhe, but the emotion at that moment has nothing to do with sadness.

Just thinking of that face purely, and then I was too scared to close it again.

Do something else.

Cultivation or... alchemy?
Xiaoying Linglu?

Tang Chengnian turned over and sat up, directly entering the main interface of the portable game system.

She almost forgot that she should have refined it a long time ago - although she has no chance to use it now, that doesn't mean she doesn't need it!She already understood how important it was to have her health points replenished immediately, but what about Xiaoying Linglu?One is related to life, and the other is related to combat effectiveness. If there is no conflict, if you can catch her with both hands, you should equip them both!
It's hard to believe she's even forgotten about it!
Tang Chengnian quickly got into the alchemy system.

"Refining Xiaoying Linglu requires... Ghost Cut Grass, and... Sky Thunder Bamboo Shoots... What are those strange names?"

She complained with a half-smile, as she quickly searched for these two names from the flower catalog of the Nine Heavens Xuanmen Pagoda.

Ghost cut grass.

Thunder shoots.

Then she was pulling the weeds almost in a plucking way.

If the Nine Heavens Xuanmen Pagoda also had a soul, it would probably cry for such a heartless master.

Too bad it doesn't.

So Tang Chengnian grandiosely took away the two spirit herbs that she had found, possessed, and wanted to use.

Having said that, Guiqiecao looks a bit like weeds, and Tianlei bamboo shoots really made her think they were winter bamboo shoots.

She obviously has a cool name, but she looks so ordinary.

Even when Tang Chengnian threw these things into the system's alchemy furnace, he was still sighing about this matter.

After solving this problem, Tang Chengnian began to meditate.

Only in this way can she forcibly empty her mind with the help of the system.

It might be strange to say this, but whenever Tang Chengnian started to meditate, her mind would instantly go blank.

Until the time she set is up, or someone interrupts her.

Any excessively loud sounds.

Sometimes, it may be just three words.

"Miss Tang!"

Tang Chengnian was shocked and opened his eyes.

She first activated the spirit disappearance, but when she recalled the voice, she quickly removed the spell.

"Sister Lu." Tang Chengnian jumped off the bed and quickly got dressed.

Then, the personal maids brought by Lu Qiumei filed in, bringing in teacups, hot water, and towels.

Ever since the Lianhe incident happened, Tang Chengnian has logically rejected the Lu family's plan to arrange a maid.

However, they really didn't want to leave Tang Chengnian in the cold, so they sent out some of Lu Qiumei's people.

Oh, but only when Lu Qiumei or Lu Qiuen comes, these people are allowed to enter Tang Chengnian's room.

In addition, Tang Chengnian's room will always be shrouded by a huge defensive formation barrier.

There are only a few people who have mastered the secret language.

Tang Chengnian agreed to this without hesitation.

When Du Ziruo proposed the formation, it was the days when Tang Chengnian was most impacted by Lian He's death.

At that time, she was both sad for Lianhe and worried that she would die.

The double torture made her agree without hesitation to such a tough method that was close to being grounded.

So far, Tang Chengnian doesn't think there is any problem with that.

Even now, Tang Chengnian still hopes that he can survive.

"After you freshen up, I'll take you out for a walk."

Hearing Lu Qiumei's gentle tone, Tang Chengnian stopped suddenly.

"I like it here so much that I don't need to leave."

"Not to let you go...we just want you to relax."

"...Thank you." Tang Chengnian gave up.

In fact, she just felt that leaving the Lu family would not be a safe decision.

While washing, Tang Chengnian took the opportunity to test his alchemy system.

100% success rate, [-]% alchemy rate, the system formula still gives the most perfect configuration.

Alchemy experience: 8000/1000000
In order to get No. 1 in the examination school, Tang Chengnian promised to give Lu Qiuen a certain amount of Xiaohui Shenglu.

As soon as she thought of this, she immediately started refining.

Adding in the hundreds of bottles of Xiaoying Linglu last night, the experience value of alchemy just broke three thousand, and it reached eight thousand in an instant.

Seems like a huge number.

But she still has a long way to go if she wants to successfully break through the alchemy pass!

Just to be promoted from an alchemist to an alchemy master requires a full 100 million experience points.

So, if she plans to be promoted to an alchemy master, how much experience will she need to accumulate?

Tang Chengnian wanted to cry but had no tears.

She could only comfort herself, who knows what lies ahead?
It might be another library! ——She can only think about the bright side in this way.

Then Lu Qiumei took her to the dining hall.

Now Tang Chengnian has no freedom at all. She can't go anywhere alone.

It might be Lu Qiumei, or it might be Lu Qiuen accompanying her.

When Tang Chengnian asked them if they had anything to do, they all shook their heads again, as if they had so much free time.

There were still only a few people in the dining hall.

The few who actually know her secret identity.

Lu Qiuen, Du Ziruo, Du Zixun, Lu Sheng, and Yuan Yuxi.

It's rare, since Du Zixun found out about Tang Chengnian's attack, he didn't provoke her anymore.

Although Tang Chengnian suspected that it was because of the presence of Lu Sheng and Yuan Yuxi.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lu Qiuen is here.

He and Du Ziruo are called Lu Qiuen's followers, but in fact they are like Lu Qiuen's elders, uncles, that kind of people.

Tsk tsk tsk, two-faced man.

Tang Chengnian sat down politely, with a demure face, very suitable for a brave little girl who had just been frightened, but was still strong enough to get out of the predicament.

Lu Qiuen, on the other hand, quietly came over and asked Lu Qiumei to sit on the other side, "Are you okay?"

Tang Chengnian just smiled and nodded to him, wondering how long will he pretend?
"I shouldn't just arrange for a maid to go..."

Lu Qiuen wanted to say this a month ago, but at that time the Lu family told him not to provoke Tang Chengnian.

"It's okay." Tang Chengnian comforted him in turn, "That's not your fault, who would have known that that respectful maid would collude with outsiders?"

Lu Qiuen licked his lower lip and sat down.

"Miss Tang." Lu Qiumei learned this name from Lu Sheng and Yuan Yuxi, "Did you see someone sneak attack you that day? At that time, the gap in the window was quite wide. The room isn't too close, maybe you can remember that person's appearance, posture... and so on...it doesn't matter if you can't remember!" She finished speaking slowly, and then hurriedly added.

"Let me think about it..." Tang Chengnian frowned, showing a look of deep thought, and then, choosing an appropriate time, she stretched out her hand, gently held her forehead, and swayed weakly, "No...no... …No……"

She cried, pitifully.

Although many people look down on weak women, if that person's weakness can be "just right", it will be pitiful.

Tang Chengnian was quite aware of how despicable his actions were.

However, compared to being tortured...she would rather act.

She didn't realize how long she'd be playing this scene, but she was slowly turning around.

By no means obtrusive.

Because when she first came, she had just quarreled with Du Zixun.

But now she is performing very well, because she was greatly frightened, which caused her personality to change drastically.

The twisting speed is worth her own choice.

Tang Chengnian thought very clearly that her nature was not like this.

She would be afraid, and would feel distressed when someone close to her was hurt, but she could forget the dripping blood that Lian He splashed on her cheek in three days - from that day on, Tang Chengnian understood that she was really cold-blooded.That is not contradictory, being kind to those close to you and ignoring those who dislike them are not contradictory, although in the eyes of many people, it is too cold and indifferent.

Tang Chengnian understood that it was absolutely impossible to share this side of himself with anyone.

But there is a kind of person who, as long as she sways gently, someone will rush towards her to ask for help, as if a breeze is blowing, which is blasphemy against her.

Tang Chengnian understood too well that if she could, if she was willing to become that kind of person, she could avoid many troubles.

If someone doubts her, if someone wants to attack her with heavy pressure, she can avoid these unnecessary things just by hanging in place.
