Tan Xiu's impression of Electrolady was that she was a fickle woman who only paid attention to a man's appearance and never paid attention to his inner qualities. Tan Xiu never had a favorable impression of such a woman. On the other hand, Tan Xiu had a good impression of Aquababe. If she had taken a liking to Tang Guang, Tan Xiu might have played matchmaker. But as for Electrolady … Tan Xiu was too lazy to take care of this ill-fated relationship for Tang Guang.
"Forget it! You're not suitable for each other. "
Tan Xiu took out a cigarette and lit it. After taking a few puffs, he turned around and left. He didn't want to hear the answer even if he asked.
Electrolady strode to catch up and angrily asked, "What do you mean? Why do you say we're not suitable? I'm an ability user and he's a cultivator. Isn't this a perfect match for each other? "
Tan Xiu halted his pace and said with a faint smile, "Do you think ability users can be compared with cultivators? Do you think you're a good match? "
"That's right."
Electrolady nodded heavily.
"Ability users do have some power, indeed." Tan Xiu shook his head and contemptuously said, "Powerful ability users can even be compared with some cultivators. But how long can an ability user live? 100 years? 200 years? Do you know how long a cultivator can live if his or her cultivation is ceaselessly growing stronger? "
"What does it have to do with how long they can live?" Electrolady angrily retorted. "Besides, there was once a super powerhouse who lived for 200 to 300 years among our ability users. Unfortunately, it was during the Anti-Japanese War and I had no chance to meet him."
"It has nothing to do with age?" Tan Xiu sneered. "If Tang Guang cultivates according to my guidance and his cultivation keeps progressing, he can live for at least a thousand years. If he works hard and is lucky, he can even become an immortal in the future. By that time, it's possible for him to live for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years. But what about you? Even if you become a super powerhouse among ability users, you can only live for 200 to 300 years at most. Do you want Tang Guang to be alone on the path of cultivation after you die? "
"This …"
Even though Electrolady wasn't a cultivator, she had heard some rumors about cultivators. It seemed that cultivators with great strength could indeed live for a long time.
However …
The moment she saw Tang Guang, she was indeed moved. She even found the feeling of her first love. She had never experienced love at first sight before, even though the number of times she had been in love had already exceeded three digits. But it was different now. The first time she saw Tang Guang, her heart had been touched, and that kind of emotion burst out uncontrollably.
Looking at Tan Xiu's disdainful expression, Electrolady realized the gap between her and Tang Guang, but she was really unwilling to give up. After hesitating for a moment, she seriously said, "Mr. Tang, can you teach me how to cultivate? As long as I become a cultivator, I can accompany Tang Guang for a long time. "
Tan Xiu rolled his eyes and snappily said, "Do you think you can become a cultivator just by talking? What kind of joke was this? In our world of cultivation, there is a saying: Dao cannot be imparted lightly. Who the hell do you think you are? You want me to teach you a cultivation technique? What qualifications do you have? "
Having said that …
Tan Xiu was too lazy to pay attention to Electrolady. He strode to Wang Rui, who had finished venting his anger, and said, "Your enemy is dead and the crisis of Qingcheng Monastery has been lifted. I've done what I promised you, so consider it as repaying your favor. Let's meet again if fate wills it! "
Wang Rui stared at Tan Xiu with a bloodstained face. His lips squirmed a few times before he suddenly asked, "If I were to cultivate according to the cultivation technique you taught us, would it be possible for me to have such a strong power like yours now?"
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "There's no hope for you to achieve it in your lifetime if you don't have any other opportunities. Qingcheng Monastery is just a martial arts inheritance, and I can make you 10 or 20 times stronger than before. It's already a favor for you. "
Wang Rui looked disappointed. After a moment of silence, he said, "What price do I have to pay for you to teach me a cultivation technique, Tan Xiu? Do I have to sell my life to you? "
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "You're not the kind of person who submits to others, and I don't need you to sell your life to me. Dao cannot be imparted lightly. Even if I teach some people a cultivation technique, I'll still have to weigh the other party's situation. If Qingcheng Monastery hadn't suffered this calamity and your father hadn't been killed by Dao Master Poison, you might have had the chance to step into the path of cultivation. But now, it's not suitable. "
"Why not?" asked Wang Rui in a deep voice.
"You have too much hostility in your heart. Even if I bring you to the threshold of cultivation, you won't be able to achieve much in the future," said Tan Xiu. "The higher your cultivation, the greater the chance of you suffering a cultivation deviation. It's very easy for you to fall into the demonic path and never be able to recover."
"I understand."
Wang Rui shot a deep look at Tan Xiu. Although he said that he had given up, he was more determined to become a cultivator and become a powerful expert like Tan Xiu in the future.
Since Electrolady and Aquababe were there to deal with the aftermath of the battle, Tan Xiu was too lazy to care about it. After leaving with Jin Shi and the others, he directly went to the cave by the mountain stream where Mo Awu and Zhang Xinyue were staying.
His purpose in coming to Qingcheng Mountain this time was to get the Red Silk Flower. However, even though his goal had been achieved, he still didn't want to leave immediately.
It was the Blood Seizing Pill.
He must refine it as soon as possible to make a breakthrough in his cultivation as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he were to encounter another Golden Core Realm cultivator in the future, he might fail miserably.
"Are we leaving, Tan Xiu?"
Zhang Xinyue's mood was very complicated. She was somewhat reluctant to part with Tan Xiu, but she also didn't want to stay in this godforsaken Qingcheng Mountain anymore. She didn't realize that Tan Xiu had taken root in her heart after getting along with him for many days and the matter of their marriage.
"I still need to stay here for some time, about a week." Tan Xiu shook his head. "If you don't want to stay here, I can send someone to send you back to Demonic Capital. It's been so many days, I'm sure your big sister is very worried about your safety. "
Zhang Xinyue hesitated for a moment and then made a decision. "Since you still need a week, then I won't go back first. Staying in the metropolis all year round and constantly working hard for my studies and career is actually quite tiring. I've made up my mind. For the next week, I'll stay in Qingcheng Mountain to enjoy the scenery and relax. "
"Since you've made up your mind, then I'll tell Awu and the others to protect you. You can go sightseeing wherever you want." Tan Xiu nodded.
"Why are you so good to me?" asked Zhang Xinyue all of a sudden. "Do you want to make up for what you owe me?"
"Ugh …"
Tan Xiu opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer. To be honest, he did have the idea to make up for what he owed Zhang Xinyue, but it might be unfair to a woman if he were to say it out loud.
Zhang Xinyue's expression turned dark, but a smile immediately appeared on her face as she said, "Forget it. You don't have to answer since you don't want to. Whether you want to make up for what you owe me or fall in love with this young lady, we'll forget everything that happened here seven days later and return to our respective lives. "
Tan Xiu fell into silence.
Zhang Xinyue said it casually, but could he really forget everything that happened just like that?
The thread of love was something that couldn't be cut and sorted out.
Tan Xiu had always been a free and easy person. Since he couldn't sort it out, he didn't want to continue to be entangled in it. He firmly believed that there would always be a way out when the time came, so he would just take it one step at a time.
He no longer thought about the issue between men and women and finally calmed down his mind to begin concocting the Blood Seizing Pill. The trip to Qingcheng Mountain this time was definitely a huge harvest for him. Not to mention the Red Silk Flower, even the large number of medicinal herbs in the underground warehouse of Qingcheng Monastery was an important cultivation resource for him.
There was also …
The Soul Slaying Nail.
Thinking about the Soul Slaying Nail, Tan Xiu resisted the urge to use it immediately and used the Demon God Spirit Devourer Cauldron to begin concocting the pill. Since the other medicinal herbs had been prepared, Tan Xiu's process of concocting the pill was very slow, but the process was also very smooth. On the fourth day, along with the sounds of banging coming from the Demon God Spirit Devourer Cauldron, Tan Xiu threw the last precious medicinal herb, the Red Silk Flower, into the cauldron.
He cast his alchemy art and the pill took shape.
The moment the Demon God Spirit Devourer Cauldron's lid was opened, the entire cave was filled with a rich medicinal fragrance. Zhang Xinyue, who had been staying in the cave for four consecutive days and had never gone out to play, felt her spirit shake. The sweat pores all over her body stretched out as she was immersed in the rich medicinal fragrance.
So comfortable!
Zhang Xinyue stared at the Demon God Spirit Devourer Cauldron in a daze. Her throat even squirmed a few times subconsciously as she swallowed the saliva secreted from her mouth.
"Absorb!"
Tan Xiu pinched the 'absorb' symbol and extracted a peanut-sized, crimson Blood Seizing Pill and immediately swallowed it.
"Ah Wu, no one is allowed to enter the cave without my order!"
Tan Xiu shouted and quickly stored the Demon God Spirit Devourer Cauldron into his interspatial ring. Then, he sat cross-legged on the spot and began to frantically digest the surging medicinal efficacy of the Blood Seizing Pill.
After Tan Xiu swallowed the Blood Seizing Pill, the erupting flood tide flooded every corner of Tan Xiu's body. The blood-colored flood tide surged ceaselessly, cleansing his muscles and tempering his bones. Even his internal organs were scoured over and over again to increase their flexibility and firmness.
The surging blood in Tan Xiu's blood vessels was gradually wrapped by the red medicinal efficacy and solidified. As time went by, the amount of blood in his blood vessels became less and less. On the third day after he took the Blood Seizing Pill, the amount of blood in his blood vessels was only a quarter of the original amount.
However …
Even if it was only a quarter of the original amount, it didn't affect Tan Xiu in the slightest. Even his originally bright red blood seemed to be illuminated by a layer of golden brilliance at the moment, exuding a hazy golden-red light.
"Hungry!"
The moment Tan Xiu opened his eyes, a strong sense of hunger made him feel particularly uncomfortable. Under Zhang Xinyue's curious gaze, he quickly took out a lot of food and wolfed it down.
For two whole hours.
Tan Xiu's mouth didn't stop. While eating and drinking, he extracted the scarce energy that nourished his blood and qi and replenished it into his blood vessels.
