The Villain Starts From Dual Cultivation With The Protagonist's Master
Chapter 21: Children Who Are Ignorant Are Doing Exercises For Fun
"I was just practicing, it's not Pill Pattern, still a long way to go."
The kind of deeply textured pills sold in the system store are the Pill Pattern.
Lu Chuan casually picked up a medicine bottle, filled it with the remaining Condensing Yuan Pills in the alchemy furnace, and threw it into the corner.
Su Lianlian only noticed that there were more than a dozen pill bottles scattered in the corner of the room.
She walked towards the corner and bent down to pick up a bottle and opened it.
The incredibly rich fragrance of the pill instantly filled the room.
She poured out a few pills from the bottle. Inside were pills known to everyone in the cultivation world, the Origin Returning Pill.
Looking closely at the pills, Su Lianlian was shocked and speechless.
In the cultivation world, there is a consensus that as long as a pill has a pill halo, even if it is the lowest level pill, the alchemist can be called a master and admired by the world.
The so-called Pill Pattern is the mark left on the pill when the medicinal effects of the spiritual herbs are maximized during the refining process.
Every pill with a Pill Pattern is born with the blessings of heaven.
And the pills in her hand are all Supreme Grade pills with a faint Pill Pattern! Although it is not easy to notice without careful observation, the presence of a Pill Pattern is a fact.
Su Lianlian opened a few more bottles, and all of them contained pills with a Pill Pattern.
"These are all the ones you practiced with?"
Su Lianlian's voice trembled with excitement.
"Yeah, they were just for practice. These are all considered defective." Lu Chuan scratched his head.
Lu Chuan's knowledge of pills comes from the "Complete Guide to Pills" given by the system, which states that only pills with deep pill halos can be considered good pills, which is only considered passing.
Not understanding the common knowledge of pills in the cultivation world, Lu Chuan thought that Su Lianlian was making fun of his inadequate alchemy skills.
"Pills with a Pill Pattern are considered defective? Lu Chuan, did you hit your head when you were sparring with Lin Qingxue? These pills can even be sold for thousands of Spirit Stones at an auction."
Although these pills are the most basic Spirit Pills, their quality is high.
Ordinary Origin Returning Pills are worth eighty Spirit Stones in the market, while Origin Returning Pills with a Pill Pattern are priced at dozens of times that.
The cultivation world is extremely dangerous, and every cultivator is bound to fight and get injured. Basic pills like the Condensing Yuan Pill can provide immediate treatment to cultivators.
The quality of pills varies, and the time it takes for the medicinal properties to take effect also varies.
It takes about ten minutes for an ordinary Origin Returning Pill to take effect after a cultivator swallows it, while higher quality pills require less time.
Do not underestimate this time. For cultivators in battle, these few minutes could cost them their lives.
"Are they worth that much?" Lu Chuan didn't expect the pills he casually refined to be so valuable.
Although the Sect Master gave him a considerable amount of Spirit Stones, Lu Chuan felt that it would be better to have some private money in his hands, especially since he still lacked three rare spiritual herbs to refine the Advanced Gold Core Pill.
Wait a moment, those items in the system store shouldn't be sold at sky-high prices.
The price of a basic pill in the store is ten points. Lu Chuan can earn over a hundred points from Luo Li in a day.
If we calculate conservatively, the points earned in a day can be exchanged for ten pills. According to Su Lianlian, if one pill can be sold for one thousand Spirit Stones, then it would be ten thousand Spirit Stones in a day.
Ten thousand Spirit Stones! It can support a cultivator from being a mortal to the Gold Core stage.
Lu Chuan started to get excited when he thought about this. He began to consider whether he could corrupt Luo Li, the protagonist, with money, making her indulge in luxury and lose interest in cultivation.
His current strength is still difficult to protect himself. Although he has two gold talismans bestowed by the ancestor, if a powerful being were to find him, he would probably not be able to escape death.
It's better to hide the fact that he can refine pills, in case he attracts the attention of people who need pills or Spirit Stones.
How to sell the pills in his hand without letting others discover that Lu Chuan is the one who refined them has become his current concern.
"High-quality pills must be valuable. You don't know the demand for high-quality Spirit Pills in the market," Su Lianlian said, thinking about Lu Chuan's background as a member of the Lu family, a cultivation family.
No wonder he would think that pills of this quality are defective. He must have been taking higher-quality Spirit Pills since he was young.
Thinking about her lack of background in the demonic sect and her insufficient strength, she could only come to the Immortal Gate undercover to seek a glimmer of hope, only to be caught and humiliated by this rogue.
Thinking about this, Su Lianlian couldn't help but feel a little sad.
When she was in the demonic sect, she was not like she is now. Even in the most dangerous and difficult situations, as long as it was for her own sake, she wouldn't even bat an eye.
Since swallowing the love gu and having her first kiss taken by Lu Chuan, she couldn't control her emotions in front of him.
Hearing Su Lianlian's voice, Lu Chuan thought that she was a good candidate.
She has the love gu in her body, so she has to meet with him every once in a while. If something were to happen to him, the love gu would make her die with him. They can be considered as having a shared destiny, and she definitely wouldn't betray him.
Lu Chuan said with an emotional tone, "Lianlian, it's not easy for you to be undercover at the Immortal Gate. Leaving your hometown and being unfamiliar with the place, you must have suffered a lot..."
Upon hearing Lu Chuan's words, Su Lianlian unexpectedly felt a sense of comfort. To cover up her shyness, she interrupted Lu Chuan.
"Hmph, you scoundrel! Who asked you to worry about me? Just say what you want to say."
"In that case, I'll be direct. Do you have a way to sell the pills I refine?"
Su Lianlian nodded. During the years she spent undercover at the Immortal Gate, the demonic sect sent many disciples to the surrounding towns, including some who infiltrated the merchant guilds.
"You're trying to please me just to use me to sell pills? You know, you don't have to please me," Su Lianlian said, wanting to hear a definite answer from Lu Chuan.
She wanted to hear Lu Chuan say with his own mouth that he was being nice to her only to use her, that they were just using each other.
Su Lianlian's voice was cold and trembling, completely different from her previous seductive self.
But Lu Chuan knew that this was her true nature.
She grew up in the cruel environment of the demonic sect and never felt warmth and kindness. In the words of her past life, she was a child lacking love.
In the original work, the person who cared for her was Luo Li. She was moved by Luo Li's righteousness and gentleness, and the ice in her heart gradually melted.
She denied her feelings for Luo Li and forcefully brainwashed herself, saying that Luo Li's kindness towards her was only for her body.
Her teasing of Luo Li was just her way of seeking confirmation. As long as Luo Li made any inappropriate moves towards her, she would immediately abandon her longing for Luo Li and confront him.
She was such a girl, tougher than anyone else, yet more fragile than anyone else.
Lu Chuan's family in Blue Star was a reconstituted family, where no one loved Lu Chuan. Lu Chuan used to be someone who didn't trust anyone and only believed in himself.
Fortunately, in his past life, he met someone who changed him. Although the two of them couldn't be together in the end, Lu Chuan owes her a lot for the changes she brought about in him.
Recalling the deepest memory of her actions at that time, Lu Chuan tried to carve it into his memory.
Walking towards Su Lianlian, he had some things to say to her.
"Of course not, I am genuinely worried about you." Lu Chuan embraced Su Lianlian.
"I am neither on the side of righteousness nor on the side of the demonic sect. As long as you don't betray me and stand by my side, then I will be on Lianlian's side. Just trust me."
As long as you still stand by my side, I will stand by yours.
Anyway, I am the antagonist of this world, and you are an undercover agent in the demonic sect who can't find love. It's a perfect match.
Su Lianlian leaned against Lu Chuan's chest, listening to his affectionate words, feeling an unprecedented sense of peace, unable to suppress her emotions any longer, tears streaming down her cheeks.
As if trying to compensate for all the previous pain and sorrow, the tears she shed were more than all the tears shed in the first half of her life combined.
Deep down, she wanted to say many things to Lu Chuan, but the words that reached her lips turned into attacking words.
The habit Su Lianlian had developed for a long time reminded her not to trust anyone, and she couldn't overcome this barrier within herself.
"Sooner or later, I will kill you, idiot."
Su Lianlian buried her head deeper, tears wetting Lu Chuan's chest.
But her mouth spoke viciously, "Now we have a mutually beneficial relationship, so I will listen to you. The day I retrieve the love potion will be the day of your death."
Lu Chuan knew what kind of person the girl in his arms was, so he only responded to her harsh words with a "Hmm."
"So, will you betray me?"
Su Lianlian tiptoed, her hands encircling Lu Chuan's head, and answered Lu Chuan with a kiss.
Unlike their passionate kisses before, this kiss was like a trickle, a gentle and continuous flow.
They didn't know how long it had been until Su Lianlian finally separated from Lu Chuan.
Moist corners of her eyes, red tip of her nose, blushing cheeks.
She didn't want Lu Chuan to see her like this, so she ran to a corner of the room to tidy up the pill bottles.
"These medicinal pills are basic recovery pills. Keep two bottles of each for yourself and sell the rest. If we split the profits, is a 70-30 split acceptable?"
"A 70-30 split?" Su Lianlian didn't expect Lu Chuan to be so generous, allowing her to keep six bottles and still receive a share of the profits.
"Too little? Then let's do a 64-36 split."
Su Lianlian's lips twitched. She wanted to scold Lu Chuan for being a clueless idiot when it came to calculations, but she thought that if he regretted it, she wouldn't receive as many benefits. In the end, she just nodded.
Before leaving, Su Lianlian remembered something she wanted to say. "Do you know how to refine Foundation Building Pills? I have a mission from the sect in a few days, and the reward for the training is Foundation Building spiritual herbs. If you know how, I won't have to spend money to find someone at the Medicine Valley."
"I haven't refined them before, but I have confidence. Leave it to me."
"Alright, see you in a few days."
Su Lianlian thought that Lu Chuan was just being modest, claiming to be a master-level genius who could easily refine Spirit Pills with Pill Patterns, but saying that he hadn't refined Foundation Building Pills before.
"Be careful outside, don't provoke anyone, especially in the sect. Especially Luoli, don't be fooled by his harmless appearance, he's actually quite scheming."
"You've mentioned Luoli's name several times, I've already remembered it. I'll go first."
After saying that, Su Lianlian's figure disappeared into the night.
Lu Chuan also had his own selfish motives. He didn't want Su Lianlian and Luoli to develop the same kind of relationship as in the original work.
In the original work, Luoli didn't cherish you, so Lu Chuan will take care of her for you.
Whether it's Lin Qingxue or Su Lianlian, Lu Chuan doesn't want to let go.
In his previous life, he accomplished nothing and died early without completing anything he wanted to do.
In this life, he will not have any regrets and strive to give the good girls around him a happy ending.
Happiness is something you fight for yourself.
Lu Chuan recalled his powerlessness in front of Li Luo Patriarch. Faced with a true powerhouse, he was still too weak.
As long as he consolidates for a while longer, he can start refining pills to advance to the Gold Core stage. He wants to step into the Gold Core stage ahead of others.
Lu Chuan cultivated throughout the night.
Early the next morning, the door that hadn't been knocked on for a long time was finally knocked.
Thinking it was Elder Wang Song coming to urge him to practice the "Longqing Jue," Lu Chuan opened the door to find Lin Qingxue in casual clothes, with Luoli dressed in men's clothing behind her.
When Luoli saw Lu Chuan, she said, "I'm going out to complete a sect mission tomorrow. Senior Brother, you won't be able to bully me anymore. Hehehe~"
The system's voice sounded.
"Mission: Seize the opportunity the protagonist obtains during the mission and obtain the 'Bone Tempering Technique.'
Mission reward: 'Bone Tempering Technique' Basic Accomplishment."
Lu Chuan responded with a smile. Luoli didn't know yet, but he would also participate in this sect mission.
