âBecause your strength is too low. Youâre still a Mystic,â Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
âBoohoo⦠I donât have a drop-dead gorgeous appearance. No one will be interested in a disheveled old man.â Old Man Zao was really regretful! If he hadnât been curious back then, why would he have taken an appearance-changing pill! Even though his appearance was ordinary in the past, he was at least much better than this!
âOld Man Zao, I wonât give you the antidote unless you can advance to Mystic Monarch!â Leng Ruoxue smiled evilly. Hmph! Who asked you to ignore me!
âHehe, Lass! Youâre not going to be confused. Isnât the appearance-changing pill only effective for three months? Itâll be fine if I donât take it again when the effects wear off this time! Therefore, you canât threaten me because it will take a long time for me to advance to Mystic Monarch!â Old Man Zao said proudly.
âOh, is that so? I forgot to tell you that the appearance-changing pill I gave you last time has no expiration date. Therefore, unless you take the antidote, you will live with this face for the rest of your lives!â Leng Ruoxue said calmly. She was already laughing in her heart seeing Old Man Zao deflated. Haha, Old Man Zao must be speechless this time!
âT-this is impossible!â Old Man Zao didnât believe Leng Ruoxue at all. His sixth sense told him that she was teasing him!
âWhatâs impossible? I found it too troublesome to take it once every three months, so I increased the dosage and refined it some more. These are all without a deadline, so you donât have to worry about not taking the medicine in time and exposing your true appearance.â Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
âXueâer, are you kidding me? Iâm your biological grandfather!â Leng Qingtian asked in disbelief after hearing Leng Ruoxueâs words. Boohoo⦠Was his precious granddaughter playing with them? In fact, he originally planned to not eat it until the appearance-changing pillâs efficacy expired. However, he didnât expect to hear such a terrible waste!
âGrandpa, Iâm doing this for your own good! Iâm afraid that Xu Qian will recognize you. But donât worry. Iâll give you the antidote immediately as long as you reach the strength of the Mystic Monarch. I promise!â Leng Ruoxue promised very seriously.
âLass, you and Little Chen Chen havenât reached the Mystic Monarch yet! Isnât it more dangerous for you to recover your looks now than for us?â Old Man Zao said stubbornly. Boohoo⦠This naughty girl is bullying the old man!
âWe only recovered at home! We will also change our appearance if we go outside,â Leng Ruoxue said with a smile.
âLass! Then letâs use our original appearance at home. Itâll be easy to go out!â Old Man Zao discussed.
âThat would be a waste of pills! Alas! Itâs not easy for Qing Jue and Little Black to plant some herbs! Why donât they know how to be thrifty!â Leng Ruoxue pretended to be displeased. In fact, she was already laughing in her heart. Haha, letâs see if we canât deal with you this time!
ââ¦â
Leng Qingtian and the others were depressed. Xueâer, youâre too good at this. Boohoo⦠How could they know that Leng Ruoxue wanted to teach them a lesson because they were only focused on finding herbs just now.
âHaha! Freak, letâs go back!â Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile. Then, with a thought, she stored everyone and the beasts in the bracelet while she and the freak sat on the little peacockâs back again and let it carry them out of the deep streamâ¦
After entering the bracelet, Leng Qingtian and the others were still comforting themselves. âItâs okay. Weâre all old men. This doesnât matter.â
âYes, Iâve been watching it for months. Iâm used to it.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHurry up and cultivate, and you can recover your original appearance as soon as possible!â Empty had been listening to their self-pity, but in the end, he really couldnât listen anymore and said directly.
There was a moment of silence when everyone heard that. However, everyone swore in their hearts that they had to cultivate the Mystic Monarch realm as soon as possible. Therefore, everyone became more attentive to cultivation from now on. This was also something Leng Ruoxue did not expect at first. Uh! This was probably what was meant by unintentional planting a willow!
After Leng Ruoxue and the freak flew up to the deep stream, they found the two butlers standing obediently in the yard waiting for themâ¦
The two butlers felt the sound behind them and immediately turned their heads. However, they found a stunning man and woman they did not know, and a familiar peacock standing in front of them. They were stunned and did not speak for a long time!
âHead Butler, are you looking for me?â Leng Ruoxue asked with some amusement.
âUh! You areâ¦â The main butler rubbed his eyes and said uncertainly. Who was this woman? Why did her voice sound identical to his young missâs?
âIâm Leng Ruoxue,â Leng Ruoxue said calmly.
âAh! Y-youâre the young miss? Oh my god! Did you eat any divine pills or spirit herbs? How did you become a stunning beauty all of a sudden!â The second butler exclaimed in fright. T-this was too exciting!
âYou are the young miss?â The Head Butler said doubtfully, looking Leng Ruoxue up and down fiercely. Uh! Their voices were very similar, and their temperaments were very similar, but there was no resemblance between their figures and faces!
âYes, I took an appearance-changing pill previously. This is my true appearance now!â Leng Ruoxue explained.
âOh!â The two of them understood. No wonder the young miss wanted to take the appearance-changing pill. With their young missâs beauty that could topple countries, who knew how many people would target her if she didnât change her appearance! The young miss and the others were not very strong. Uh! That meant endless trouble!
âMiss, when did you come out of seclusion?â The Head butler asked curiously after calming down. They were here to look for Leng Qingtian and the others, but there was no reaction in the room. Moreover, they didnât dare to barge in, so they waited in the yard for a while. They didnât expect to see their Miss.
âJust now. By the way, why are you here?â Leng Ruoxue asked.
âItâs like this. Weâre here to tell Master Leng, Uh! Everyone is awake,â The Head butler said carefully. Alas! He didnât know if Miss would be angry after knowing about this!
âOh, then let them all come over! Iâll meet them,â Leng Ruoxue said after some thought. Then she pulled the freak to find a place in the yard to sit down.
