Novel Bin Chapter 131 - Even the Maid Ni Yu Is So Extraordinary
Chapter 131: Even the Maid Ni Yu Is So Extraordinary
Stars lit up the night sky. Like flowers competing with one another in beauty, they shone as brightly as they could to outdo the others.
When the thick clouds dispersed, the moonlight spilled on the ground like a shy girl’s veil, giving everything a stunning, cold silvery sheen…
Much like the woman who walked out of the Dragon Gate. She was as cold and as aloof as autumn chrysanthemums.
Ning Zhao was excited, but she did not show her excitement. Even though she had achieved a breakthrough to the Internal Organs Realm, she was still a little cold and aloof.
She walked across the lake slowly. The night wind stirred the ends of her dress.
Everyone nearby felt a powerful pressure.
A pressure from a realm.
Lv Dongxuan’s white robe was fluttering. The gold beaded necklace around his neck was shining under the moonlight. It was especially eye-catching and brilliant.
He felt he was suffocating due to the powerful pressure released by Ning Zhao.
A cultivator’s first realm was Qi Core.
A cultivator’s second realm was the Internal Organs.
And Ning Zhao was currently in the Internal Organs Realm!
Lv Mudui even knocked the bamboo cane on the ground. His beard blowing, he flushed and opened his mouth widely, showing his front teeth with a wide gap in the middle.
To his surprise, being affected by Ning Zhao’s energy, the Spirit Qi in his body was tumbling out of control…
As if Ning Zhao was an insurmountable mountain.
“This feeling…”
“An oppression caused by a cultivator in the Internal Organs Realm?”
Lv Mudui sucked air through gritted teeth.
Ning Zhao stepped on the lake surface. Since she had just realized the breakthrough, her force was out of her control.
When she took one step on the water surface, the churning of her Spirit Qi caused a several-foot-high water column in the lake.
“Young Master.”
Ning Zhao came up to Lu Fan, still containing her excitement.
Lu Fan, smiling, flicked his fingers. A wisp of Spirit Qi was released and flowed into Ning Zhao’s body.
Immediately, the restless Spirit Qi in Ning Zhao’s body became stable.
“It’s hard to keep improving. It’s even harder to keep improving in cultivation.”
“Talent is not the only determining factor. An indomitable spirit and unshakable resolution are actually more important.”
“Without those, no matter how talented you are, other cultivators with an indomitable spirit and unshakable resolution would sooner or later surpass you,” Lu Fan said slowly.
The wind stirred his hair and his clothes.
Ning Zhao was astounded after hearing this. A smile showed on her face that was covered in blood.
“Yes.”
Lu Fan nodded.
He raised his hand, and blue Spirit Qi started to gather in his palm.
With a gentle sweep, the Spirit Qi flowed into the middle of Ning Zhao’s forehead.
What Lu Fan gave her was the cultivation method for Internal Organs Realm.
“The Internal Organs Realm aims to refine the five organs and discover the treasures in the human body. The five organs are the five treasures. This is a key process for a mortal being to transcend. When the ultimate level of the Internal Organs is achieved, elemental Spirit Qi will be produced. Fire comes from the heart, metal from the lungs, earth from the spleen, and so on… Elemental Spirit Qi could significantly increase your fighting power. You won’t be able to brew storms in rivers and seas, but compared to ordinary people, you’ll be extraordinary,” Lu Fan explained.
Ning Zhao was immersed in the cultivation method for the Internal Organs Realm. She let her thoughts fly.
Lu Fan did not interrupt her.
It was essential to know well the cultivation method for the Internal Organs Realm. After all, the Internal Organs Realm was a process of building foundations. If things went wrong with the foundation, then how would a high-rise building be constructed?
Meanwhile, on the Dragon Gate, the little yellow jiao dragon also transformed. By taking in the Spirit Qi storm caused by Ning Zhao’s breakthrough to the Internal Organs Realm, the little yellow jiao dragon transformed into a heavenly dragon descendant immediately.
Lu Fan was delighted. The little yellow jiao dragon looked even more gorgeous. Its body was long and slim, and its wings looked especially stunning. When the now heavenly dragon descendant flapped its wings, a storm seemed to be brewing.
It seemed to notice the look on Lu Fan’s face.
The little yellow jiao dragon stood straight on the Dragon Gate, flapping its wings, as if it was befriending Lu Fan.
Lu Fan burst out laughing. It was a cute dragon.
He shifted his consciousness.
The giant bowl filled with the black jiao dragon’s blood floated in the air before Lu Fan.
The little yellow jiao dragon’s body suddenly became stiff. Feeling the jiao dragon’s energy from the bowl, it hurried to cover its face with its stunning wings.
Lu Fan waved at Ni Yu, who was far away.
“Pot,” Lu Fan said.
A black pot flew up to Lu Fan immediately.
Fortunately, Ni Yu had lots of herbs in stock to refine elixirs. So Lu Fan did not have to purchase any.
He collected several chrysanthemum petals. Heaven Facing Spiritual Chrysanthemums were waving.
Under the moonlight, Lu Fan poured the black jiao dragon’s blood into the pot and then threw in the herbs and the chrysanthemum petals.
Then, he flicked his fingers.
A wisp of Spirit Qi flew under the suspended black pot and started to burn. Heated by the hot fire, the bottom of the black pot turned red immediately.
“Young Master… Are you refining elixirs?” Ni Yu asked, wiping saliva off the corner of her mouth.
Sitting in the Thousand Blades Chair, Lu Fan threw her a glance. His hair and his clothes were blowing.
Why did she ask even though she knew the answer?
Lu Fan did not reply. He turned his head to continue refining elixirs.
Refining Dragon’s Blood Elixirs was much more complicated than refining Gathering Qi Elixirs.
Standing in the distance, Ni Yu took a Gathering Qi Elixir, which still felt warm, out of the satchel at her waist. She put it into her mouth and chewed it as if it was a sugar-coated bean.
At the sight of this, the corners of Lv Mudui, Lv Dongxuan, and others’ mouths twitched.
Only this girl would eat precious Gathering Qi Elixirs like eating sugar-coated beans.
However, they could do nothing about it. After all, it was Ni Yu who refined those Gathering Qi Elixirs.
Even if she dipped her elixirs in sauces, they could not blame her for anything.
The process of refining Dragon’s Blood Elixirs did not last too long. After all, Lu Fan used Spirit Qi fire to heat the black pot.
Soon, the dragon blood in the pot started to evaporate, and black steam spread all over.
That was the evil energy of the black jiao dragon and its grievance.
Anyone would have a grievance if someone cut his tail open to bleed him in order to fill a giant bowl with his blood.
Dong. Dong. Dong…
In the black pot…
The loud clatters sounded like an explosion or that of big raindrops pattering against the windowpane during a storm.
Ni Yu was even more curious because she smelled a rich aroma in the air.
It smelled like duck blood and vermicelli soup!
Ni Yu’s eyes lit up.
Finally…
It went quiet in the pot again.
Lu Fan waved his sleeve.
The black pot fell on the ground right away.
“Ni, go to fetch the Dragon’s Blood Elixirs in the pot,” Lu Fan said.
“Yes,” Ni Yu replied immediately.
Then she ran to the black pot excitedly.
She did not mind that they were still hot. She just could not wait. She blew on them. Then, she took a satchel and put all of the red elixirs in the pot inside.
“Young Master, eighteen elixirs have been refined!”
“Young Master, we have a large output as expected!”
Ni Yu’s face flushed from the excitement. She ran up to Lu Fan to give him the satchel.
She did not sneak even one elixir. Without Young Master’s permission, she would not dare.
She was afraid Young Master would beat her to death.
Lu Fan weighed the elixirs in his hand. He picked one of them out. The color was blood red and had patterns similar to what jiao dragons had on their bodies. There were three lines in all…
They were first-grade three-patterned elixirs!
Since he used the black jiao dragon’s blood, these Dragon’s Blood Elixirs were only first-grade elixirs.
If it had been a heavenly dragon’s blood, together with some top-class herbs, he would have refined second-grade elixirs. The higher a heavenly dragon’s level, the more valuable its blood was, and the higher the grade of the refined elixirs would be.
First-grade three-patterned elixirs were already of relatively good quality.
“Give one elixir to Tianji Pavilion and one to Lil Shuang. Take the others to my father,” Lu Fan said.
Ni Yu responded, “Ah?”
Lu Fan raised his eyebrow. He threw Ni Yu a look. “What?”
“Young Master, that’s it? Won’t you give Sister Ning one? She just achieved a breakthrough. And Sister Yi Yue. She had been cultivating so hard. And me. I’ve been working so hard to refine elixirs…” Ni Yu said.
Lu Fan leaned on the back of his new wheelchair.
“Take one if you want, but Ning Zhao and Yi Yue wouldn’t need them. The benefits of the Dragon’s Blood Elixirs are limited if there is an abundant amount of Spirit Qi in the Qi Core. They’ll just be wasted.”
The Thousand Blades Chair turned automatically. The silver wheelchair was like the bright moon in the night. Lu Fan’s fluttering white clothes looked pretty elegant.
The wheelchair moved slowly toward the second floor of White Jade City Pavilion.
Very soon, Lu Fan disappeared into the dark night.
Ni Yu was so excited that she beamed. Her eyes were like two crescent moons.
She took one Dragon’s Blood Elixir happily and threw it to Lv Dongxuan.
Lv Dongxuan’s heart beat faster. He took it immediately and wiped it with his clothes with care.
Ni Yu then ran to the large-headed Nie Shuang—who was practicing fist methods under chrysanthemums—and gave him a Dragon’s Blood Elixir too.
Then, despite the pain of seasickness…
Ni Yu found a small boat.
As soon as she got onto the boat, she took out a Dragon’s Blood Elixir happily and put it into her mouth.
She crunched the elixir right away.
After feeling the aftertaste, she frowned.
“It needs a coat of sugar…” Ni Yu murmured.
As soon as she said that…
The elixir instantly turned into a warm current in her stomach. The Spirit Qi in her Qi Core suddenly boiled as if catalyst had been added into it.
Ni Yu’s eyes narrowed to slits as if she could not take it anymore.
Curling her lip, she lifted her butt.
A hot airflow gushed out as loud as a dragon’s roar.
Ripples formed on the lake surface, while the boat swayed as if it had been propelled forward. The boat turned into a white light and sailed out at high speed. Ni Yu couldn’t help but scream her heart out. The boat looked like the brightest shooting star in the night sky…
On the second floor of White Jade City Pavilion.
Lu Fan was sitting in his wheelchair near the railing.
He shook his head after hearing Ni Yu’s loud screams.
Dragon’s Blood Elixirs were used to build foundations, so the less Spirit Qi in the Qi Core, the better.
The more Spirit Qi in the Qi Core, the more intense the reaction to the elixirs would be.
Ni Yu took so many Gathering Qi Elixirs together with this Dragon’s Blood Elixir…
She was indeed Young Master’s favorite.
Lu Fan tapped his fingers on the carved wooden railing.
A soft wind blew by, while he was looking at the glistening water surface and then to the movement of the clouds.
He turned 30 Available Points into Spirit Qi with his mind.
Before him, a system prompt popped up.
[Spirit Qi storage has reached 1,000 wisps, the maximum of Refined Qi Level 2. Level up?]
Lu Fan instantly stopped tapping.
A smile tugged at the corners of his lips.
******
With his hands behind his back, Lu Changkong was walking by the white jade rail along the lakeside of Beiluo Lake. He felt the soft breeze brush gently against his cheeks.
Looking at Lake Island, he could vaguely see it shrouded in a thick fog.
Luo Yue was walking next to Lu Changkong with his knife.
“Old Luo, Luo Cheng led our soldiers into the Dragon Gate. How is it going?” Lu Changkong asked.
“About 800 Beiluo soldiers went through the Dragon Gate. But 300 of them died or got injured. Only 11 or 12 managed to gather wisps of Spirit Qi in their Qi Core,” Luo Yue explained with pity.
“It’s not so easy to be a cultivator. It’s beyond our imagination.”
“Talent matters a lot,” Luo Yue said.
Lu Changkong nodded slightly. “Even martial arts practitioners need great talent to succeed, let alone cultivation…”
All of a sudden…
Lu Changkong raised his eyebrow.
He looked back at the lake.
He saw a white wave approaching at high speed like a white dragon flying at night.
Lu Changkong took a closer look. He found it was a boat at the front of the wave.
On the boat, a na?ve-looking teenage girl was curling her lip. Her hair was blowing wildly. The airflow behind her lifted the ends of her clothes.
Luo Yue saw this too. He could not help but exclaim in surprise.
“That’s truly Young Master’s maid. Even the maid Ni Yu is so extraordinary.”
However, Lu Changkong’s brow twitched.
Why did he feel something was not so right?
