"Narcissist!" Zhu Zhuqing was a little exasperated as she looked at the man in front of her. This man was really good at everything, apart from being fickle and narcissistic.
Lu Yuan didn't seem to mind at all when he heard that. Instead, he moved his face closer to Zhu Zhuqing's. "Did I say something wrong? Am I not handsome? "
"Not handsome!" Zhu Zhuqing rolled her eyes and said.
"Is that so? Then why do I remember that someone was stunned when I took off my mask for the first time? "Lu Yuan's lips curled into a smirk as he said.
"You're still talking about that!" Zhu Zhuqing blushed. Yes, she was indeed a little dazed when she saw Lu Yuan's face for the first time. After all, that was the first time she had seen a man as handsome as Lu Yuan.
However, she was still very embarrassed when Lu Yuan said that. After all, she was still quite shy.
"Hehe!" Lu Yuan smirked. He slowly tightened his grip around Zhu Zhuqing's waist and hugged her tightly.
"Lu Yuan, Hu Lena should be here soon, right?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"It should be in the next few days. I think the Chrysanthemum Douluo should be here with senior sister." Lu Yuan glanced at Ning Rongrong and lowered his voice.
"Then where do you plan to meet them? Their identities can't be exposed, right? "Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"Let's meet in the Setting Sun Forest. There are fewer people there. When the time comes, I'll send Dugu Bo out to recruit people. I can also meet senior sister and the others at the Icefire Yin Yang Well. After absorbing the immortal herb, I'll immediately send her back," Lu Yuan said.
"So heartless? You're not going to let her stay for a while longer? "Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"I'm not heartless. It's just that it's inconvenient for her to stay here for too long. It's easy for her identity to be exposed. Secondly, Cher has a small opinion of her. If they meet, something unpleasant might happen," Lu Yuan said softly.
"I'm afraid Hu Lena won't leave so easily. You know how much she clings to you. It wasn't easy for you to bring her here, so how could she leave so easily? Haven't you heard of the saying 'it's easier to invite a devil in than to send it away'?" Zhu Zhuqing said meaningfully.
"You're still thinking about what happened in Martial Spirit City!" Lu Yuan pinched Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks helplessly. This girl probably still remembered how Hu Lena had dominated Lu Yuan for two months in Martial Spirit City.
"Hmph!" Zhu Zhuqing snorted softly and turned her head away.
"Alright, don't be angry. Come to my room tonight. I'll let you hug me to sleep!" Lu Yuan smiled.
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's face instantly turned red. She stole a glance at Ning Rongrong, who was absorbing the medicinal strength. Then, she pretended to be embarrassed and glared at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan smiled and gently caressed Zhu Zhuqing's face. He said, "Zhuqing, you've taken the Qi Tempering Pill, and your soul power has stabilized. Tonight, I'll give you a big gift. Once you've finished absorbing the medicinal strength, senior sister will be here. Then, you two can go and get your soul rings together."
"Okay!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded lightly. There was a trace of anticipation on her face. Lu Yuan had always said that he had a big gift for her, but he never told her what it was. This made her very curious. What exactly did Lu Yuan want to give her?
He gently hugged Zhu Zhuqing. Not long after, another quarter of an hour passed.
The golden light on Ning Rongrong's body gradually faded. From the looks of it, the absorption of the medicinal strength should be coming to an end.
Seeing that Ning Rongrong was about to finish absorbing the medicinal strength, Zhu Zhuqing squirmed out from Lu Yuan's embrace. She stood to the side and observed Ning Rongrong's situation with her beautiful eyes.
The golden light slowly receded until it completely entered Ning Rongrong's body. Then, Ning Rongrong's eyes, which had been closed all this time, suddenly opened. A pair of blue eyes flickered with a bright light.
"Lu Yuan!" Ning Rongrong saw Lu Yuan in front of her with a single glance. Immediately, a trace of pleasant surprise appeared on her face. There was a trace of excitement in her voice.
"How do you feel after absorbing the medicinal strength?" Lu Yuan asked with a faint smile.
"It feels very good. My entire body feels light, as if I've been reborn. Furthermore, my soul power has reached Rank 30." Ning Rongrong said with a sweet smile on her face.
"Oh, is that it? Take a look at your martial soul. Do you see any changes? "Lu Yuan said.
"Martial soul?" Ning Rongrong turned to Lu Yuan with a perplexed look on her face. Then, she extended her right hand, and a lavish and intricate pagoda of vibrant colors immediately appeared over her hand.
"There aren't any changes!" Ning Rongrong said after taking a casual glance at it.
"Count carefully. How many levels are there?" Lu Yuan asked in a soft voice.
"Huh? Oh! "Ning Rongrong nodded. Then, her eyes narrowed slightly as she began to count.
"One, two, three … Seven, eight, nine … Huh? How could there be nine levels? " Ning Rongrong exclaimed with an astonished look on her face. However, her astonishment was intermingled with immense elation.
"The Beautiful Silk Tulip absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as well as the essence of the sun and moon, so it's most suited to a lavish and extravagant treasure-type martial soul like the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. I was already expecting that your martial soul would evolve from the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda to the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda," Lu Yuan said with a faint smile.
"Lu Yuan!" Ning Rongrong raised her head, and an unprecedented light flashed in her eyes. All of a sudden, she abruptly rushed forward and threw herself into Lu Yuan's arms before planting a kiss on Lu Yuan's lips.
Lu Yuan's heart jolted upon seeing this, and he hurriedly turned his head to the side. Ning Rongrong's red lips were pressed directly onto Lu Yuan's face.
Lu Yuan gently pushed Ning Rongrong's head away with a resigned look on his face. Why did this little girl suddenly launch a sneak attack on him? She almost succeeded. Thank God he reacted quickly enough.
Ning Rongrong was a little disappointed that she wasn't able to kiss Lu Yuan's lips, but she still wore a smile on her face.
"Thank you, Lu Yuan, I'm truly grateful to you. Thank you for helping me complete the goal that countless seniors of our Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda have been pursuing for a long time. You evolved the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda. This is far too important to our Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, and I really don't know how to thank you."
Ning Rongrong looked at Lu Yuan, and her beautiful eyes sparkled. Her face was full of gratitude.
"You don't have to thank me. Aren't we friends now?" Lu Yuan smiled faintly.
"Yes, we're friends now!" Ning Rongrong stared intently at Lu Yuan, and her beautiful eyes were filled with passion. She thought to herself, Friends? I'm not satisfied with just being friends.
"Lu Yuan, I might have to go home for a while!" Ning Rongrong suddenly said after staring at Lu Yuan for a while.
"Yes, you're going back to tell Uncle Ning about your martial soul. That's right, the appearance of the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda is far too important to the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. You do have to go home, then. Anyway, there aren't any classes in the academy for the time being. You can go home and tell Uncle Ning about it, and obtain your third soul ring at the same time."
Lu Yuan smiled as he spoke.
