The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 38: Li Yourong's Conditions (Seeking to Continue Reading and Collecting)

"Comfortable!"

Li Yourong slowly opened her eyes. The bright morning sunlight shone through the gauze curtains, casting a faint glow on the water surface of the bathtub, creating soft and gentle reflections.

Splash!

She got up from the bathtub, like a water lily emerging from the water. Her white body exuded a seductive luster as she slowly put on her robe.

Inside the bathtub, a strong medicinal fragrance wafted along with the ripples of water.

The soft and tender memories from just now surged in Li Yourong's mind, causing a hint of blush to appear on her face.

But her lips couldn't help but curl up, and a joyful expression flickered in her eyes. "I have cleared the toxins from seven acupoints in my body!"

Splash!

Chen Ling also emerged from the water, wiping the water off his face and exhaling a breath.

In order to better detoxify Li Yourong, he had purchased a large bathtub yesterday, big enough for the two of them to frolic inside.

Li Yourong, wearing her robe, let her long hair hang loose. The hideous blood web on her skin had disappeared, restoring her fair and tender complexion. Her whole body exuded a charming and enticing aura.

Leaning against the edge of the tub, smelling the unique fragrance emanating from Li Yourong's body, Chen Ling gathered his courage and said, "Li Daoist friend, since we both have the experience of dual cultivation, would you be willing to be my wife?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yourong played with her damp hair with her jade-like hand, stared at Chen Ling with a smile that was not quite a smile, and said, "The toxins in my body haven't been completely cleared yet, and there is always a possibility of a relapse. Are you daring enough to marry me?"

"Naturally, I must take responsibility for what I have done. I don't want people to call me a scumbag behind my back!" Chen Ling said earnestly.

"A scumbag?" Li Yourong was a little confused.

But she didn't pay too much attention to it. Her gaze shifted slightly, and she smiled, saying, "If you want me to marry you, it's not impossible. First, help me kill two despicable individuals!"

"Who?" Chen Ling was taken aback.

He didn't expect Li Yourong to propose this condition.

If it were spiritual stones or pills, it would be easier to handle.

But killing someone was not his area of expertise.

[Hint: Marrying a new concubine will earn you 30 incense points!]

While Chen Ling was contemplating, a prompt appeared on the panel.

"This new concubine must be referring to Li Yourong in front of me. It used to be 20 incense points, why has it increased?" Chen Ling was puzzled.

"Forget it, I know you're timid. I was just joking with you. These two people are the ones who harmed me with the venom of the Ink Armor Poison Spider. Both of them are at the mid-stage of Qi Refining. I guess you have no way to deal with them."

"When the toxins in my body are completely eliminated and I kill these two, then I can consider your proposal!"

Li Yourong's face revealed a charming smile, but a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

She had cooperated with these two people several times before, but she didn't expect them to suddenly plot against her and leave her to deal with the Ink Armor Poison Spider alone.

Although she managed to kill the spider in the end, she was also severely poisoned.

For over a month, she had been tormented by the poison, feeling worse than death.

She must seek revenge for this, no matter what.

And the prey she had hunted for over a month had been taken away by these two.

Faced with such untrustworthy individuals, there was only one choice to deal with them: kill them!

"I'll do it!" Chen Ling gritted his teeth, a fierce look flashing across his face as he spoke resolutely.

If it were an ordinary fifth-level Qi Refining cultivator, they would probably not dare to agree.

But now he was close to the sixth level of Qi Refining, and the power of his Lingyan Finger was enough to deal with cultivators at the seventh or even eighth level of Qi Refining. In addition, he had plenty of fire thunder beads and other magical tools.

With all these methods combined and careful planning, he was confident that he could deal with a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator without any problems.

Of course, the most important thing was that he had to take this risk in order to marry Li Yourong.

Based on his understanding of Li Yourong, he would never be interested in a coward.

If he rejects now, there may not be a chance to marry her in the future!

Moreover, with his desire for stability, once Li Yourong becomes his wife, he will never allow those two enemies who plotted against her to live in the same neighborhood.

This could bring danger to the rest of the family at any time!

Looking at Chen Ling's reaction, Li Yourong was somewhat surprised. Subconsciously, she smoothed her hair and swayed with a charming demeanor.

Blinking her eyes, she smiled and said, "Okay, wait for my message."

Although Chen Ling already has a cultivation level of Qi Refining Fifth Layer, he is, after all, a weapon refiner. In terms of actual combat, he is considered weak in her eyes.

Her previous words were just a subconscious reaction, and she didn't really mean for Chen Ling to kill the two people.

In her opinion, Chen Ling, who has always been timid and rarely leaves the house, would naturally not agree to such unreasonable conditions.

Besides, she must personally avenge this grudge, how could she rely on others?

But Chen Ling unexpectedly agreed, which caused some ripples in her heart.

"Marrying him and living a worry-free life in the future is not a bad choice!"

A blush appeared on Li Yourong's face as she silently said to herself.

Originally, she had a carefree and straightforward personality, enthusiastic about exploring adventures.

But this accident gave her enough lessons to rethink her future cultivation direction.

Relying solely on hunting to obtain resources would eventually lead to trouble.

Coupled with Chen Ling's recent sweet words, it made her somewhat tempted!

"Do you know the whereabouts of these two people now?" Chen Ling stood up, picked up a towel from the side, and asked.

Li Yourong shook her head, "No."

Chen Ling thought for a moment and didn't ask further. In his opinion, since these two people were Li Yourong's former companions, she should naturally be able to find their whereabouts.

What he needed to do now was to improve his strength and make sufficient preparations.

Then he left the room.

······.

In the kitchen, Chu Yu was already busy preparing lunch.

He Yunxiu was playing with Xiaoping'an in the house.

Qin Yelian went to the Qin family to buy elixirs.

With the eighty-two medium-grade spirit stones obtained yesterday, she bought nearly three months' worth of spiritual food, costing six medium-grade spirit stones.

She also purchased a batch of Fire Sun Grass worth eight medium-grade spirit stones.

In addition, she exchanged the corpse of the Ink Armor Poison Spider from Li Yourong for ten medium-grade spirit stones.

Qin Yelian went to the Qin family to buy elixirs and took away forty-five medium-grade spirit stones.

After calculating, she was left with just over ten medium-grade spirit stones.

"Ah, it's really not easy to make a living!" she sighed.

In the cultivation room, Chen Ling sat cross-legged on the cushion, contemplating.

"But the most urgent task is still to prepare and quickly eliminate Li Yourong's enemies."

With a change of mind, Chen Ling's gaze swept over the attribute panel.

Incense Value: 13.

"13 Incense Value. When Yelian returns, with the help of the Second Dan Patterned Qi-Combining Pill and a bit of the Nine Revolutions Spirit Flame Decision, I should strive to break through to Qi Refining Sixth Layer as soon as possible!"

Then, his divine sense turned to the second-rank Ink Armor Poison Spider in the storage bag.
