Ye Fei is proficient in pharmacology, so he should have noticed it, but he didn't say it directly.

"Hmph! I have been maintaining my beauty for many years, and I once took a beauty-preserving pill. How could I not see the efficacy of this pill?"

Shi Manrong also sat up from the quilt, using only a shallow layer of silk quilt to cover her snow-white and warm red body.

"It's not that I intentionally concealed it. This matter involves some unspeakable secrets of Master Lin..."

Lu Changan smiled bitterly and pushed back.

"As expected, it is the Beauty Pill that Master Lin helped you refine. Ye Fei has no experience in refining this pill."

Shi Manrong pursed her lips and smiled softly, spreading her jade palms.

"Have you ever taken the Beauty Pill?"

"A second-level beauty-preserving elixir can only maintain its best effect for a hundred years, and the beauty-preserving effect will diminish in the future."

Teacher Manrong said with a smile.

After all, the Beauty Pill cannot change the essence of life, it can only maintain the superficial youthful appearance.

No matter how powerful the second-level elixir is, it cannot maintain its effects for hundreds or thousands of years.

Lu Changan sighed, took out a Beauty Pill, and handed it to Shi Manrong.

Shi Manrong rarely showed a happy expression, her pretty eyes were bright, and she took this beauty pill directly.

"It can be inferred from this that you must have kept secrets about the ancient ruins from me."

Shi Manrong stood up, put on her dress, tied up her hair, regained her dignity and grace, and looked at Lu Changan with a half-smile.

"As of now, I can no longer hide it from Master Fairy."

Lu Changan tidied his clothes and returned to his normal etiquette tone from the lover's tryst relationship.

Then, he told in more detail what happened before Master Xianzi lost his memory.

With the relationship between the two today, it is natural for them to mention the secrets from back then.

Lu Changan didn't know much about the specifics of ancient ruins.

Shi Manrong listened very carefully and looked thoughtful.

"I won't hide it from fellow Daoist Lu. Due to my incomplete memory, I have been looking for the location of the ancient ruins for these years, and I can only get a few clues."

Shi Manrong said distressedly.

She suggested: "Since Fellow Daoist Lu knows about this matter, you and I might as well cooperate and find together..."

Lu Changan shook his head: "Not as good as Master Fairy, his cultivation has reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. Whether Lu can be promoted to the later stage of Foundation Establishment is still unknown, so we won't mention it for now."

In fact, the "Yin Yang Water" and "Xuanmu Vine" in the ancient ruins have great appeal to Lu Changan.

Yin and yang water can break the elixir and reshape it, improving the quality of the elixir.

Black wood vine is an excellent heaven and earth spiritual object for creating wood-based natal magic weapons.

"I believe that it will be easy for Lu Daoyou to advance to the late stage of foundation building."

Shi Manrong looked at him with eyes as calm as water, whether it was a test or a genuine confidence in Lu Changan.

"hope so."

Lu Changan was noncommittal, glanced at her, and said tentatively:

"If Shi Xianzi has attainments as a third-level formation mage, and Lu is lucky enough to be promoted to the late stage of foundation building in the future, this matter can be discussed."

"Due to the limitations of my cultivation, my formation skills are already at the limit of being able to reach the third level. Ordinary third-level formation masters are at least fake elixir masters."

Shi Manrong sighed quietly and claimed that it was difficult.

Lu Changan couldn't tell the truth from the truth, even if they were related to each other to the point where they were familiar with every inch of each other's skin.

However, today's showdown has taken the relationship between the two parties a step further.

This leaves a preliminary intention for future cooperation.

"This is the cost of Zhuyan Dan."

Before leaving, Shi Manrong handed a brocade bag containing spiritual stones to Lu Changan.

The two have similar ideas, have a good impression of each other, develop a romantic relationship, and relieve the loneliness and needs on the road of spiritual practice.

Shi Xianzi never thinks that she has suffered a loss.

In terms of transactions, the two do not involve their personal feelings, and at most they give some concessions.

…

Three months later.

Lu Changan is over one hundred and thirty years old.

Four years have passed since he reached the sixth level of foundation building. It is expected that it will take more than ten years to reach the seventh level of foundation building, which will become the same level of major repair in the later stage of foundation building.

On this day, the Earth Rock Rat presented a letter from Jinyun Valley to the cave.

This letter was sent by Zhao Siyao's disciple "Zhao Tan'er".

Zhao Siyao had promised before going on the expedition that she would pass news from the front back to her female disciples.

Zhao Tan'er is in the middle stage of foundation building. He has excellent talents, lively temperament, has many friends in the sect, and is well-informed.

"It has been nearly two years since the second batch of monks from the Liang Kingdom sect went on an expedition. I don't know how Daoyou Zhao and Daoyou Zhang are doing on the battlefields in neighboring countries."

Lu Changan looked cautious and opened the letter.
