The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

Seeing Chen Xuan's casual attitude, Gao Yueting felt a little annoyed.

I'm the one who holds your life in my hands, how can you be so naive as to talk back to everyone?

"You did a great job this time. What kind of reward would you like?"

"What are you saying, Your Highness? Didn't you say you would let me leave?" Chen Xuan frowned.

"When you leave? Heh heh, I didn't expect you to be so naive. I've already offended the Xuan Yang Sect, do you think I'd let you leave?!"

"you……!"

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'I'? I've already obtained the elixir, so while I'm in a good mood, you can still ask for a reward! Otherwise, if you anger me, I'll torture you even more cruelly than before!"

"Furthermore, I have already recorded the entire process of your alchemy. Don't think that you won't make pills for me in the future. I can make others make them sooner or later!" Gao Yueting pointed triumphantly to the recording stone on the table.

I never expected that I, Gao Yueting, would ever be able to trample on you and your husband, Zhao Lingwu, under my feet!

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!

"Alright! I was rash." Chen Xuan shrugged, his tone still nonchalant despite having suffered a loss.

"Hmph, from now on you'll serve me obediently, and maybe you'll even have a peaceful end!"

"Yes, yes, Princess Gao is right. In the future... cough cough, I will naturally serve you willingly!"

Seeing Chen Xuan, who had previously refused to yield even unto death, now flattering her, Gao Yueting felt a surge of pleasure.

Zhao Lingwu, Zhao Lingwu, the person who once pinned you down has now become my servant. I wonder what your expression will be when you find out!

Seeing the woman's smug expression, Chen Xuan also revealed a strange smile.

Gao Yueting saw that smile and frowned. She always felt that Chen Xuan's attitude was a bit strange, as if he wasn't afraid of her at all, and seemed to be in complete control.

But... he really is a useless person. I just tried it, and it can't be wrong!

'Never mind, he's a cripple, he can't escape my grasp!'

"How should I take this pill? Are there any precautions?" Without further thought, she immediately set out to try and improve her own strength.

"This is exactly what I wanted to tell you, Your Highness. This elixir is very strange. It requires the tools I specified beforehand to be used together before it will have the effect of stimulating potential!"

"What kind of strange pill is this?!" Gao Yueting frowned.

She has consumed quite a few pills since she was a child, so she knows a lot about common sense. There are no pills that require any tools to assist them!

"These are pills I created myself, and the items correspond to different parts of the body. With their complementary effects, they will naturally produce a qualitative change."

"Of course, Your Highness, it's the same even if you don't use it, but I can't guarantee whether it will be effective!" Chen Xuan said with a straight face and a serious expression.

"Okay, okay, I got it! Here, take out your things!"

"Alright!" Chen Xuan smiled slightly; he had been waiting for Gao Yueting to say those words.

"This is... a black ice silkworm net? It's a very ordinary thing. How can this be used in conjunction with pills?!" Gao Yueting asked in confusion.

"Please use your spiritual power, Your Highness, to infuse this black ice silkworm net into it, making it smooth and shaping it into trousers," Chen Xuan instructed.

He could have done it himself, but he chose not to, his purpose being to make Gao Yueting trap herself in her own web of problems!

"Why make it into the shape of trousers? What does this have to do with the elixir?"

"I will use my experience to guide you, Your Highness, in creating tools that correspond to the meridians in your legs, that's all," Chen Xuan said, his face still stern.

"..."

Gao Yueting really couldn't see any problem, so she could only do as she was told.

'Hmm, cultivating immortality does have its advantages; making small tools is quite simple!'

Looking at the finished high-quality silk fabric with modern craftsmanship, Chen Xuan showed a satisfied expression. Then, he took out the second item.

A white ball that looks like the tail of some kind of animal.

"What, what is this?"

"This is an item to prevent excess energy from the pill; it transfers the excess energy into it..." Chen Xuan explained at length, and Gao Yueting, though puzzled, still did as he was told.

"Is it over now?"

"Yes, I can prepare the rest myself. Your Highness, please wait a moment."

"What's all this mystery about? I want to see it for myself!" Gao Yueting became interested and expressed her desire to participate in the final stage.

"Alright, since you're going to use these princesses anyway, there's no need for me to hide it from you."

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he began his work, and soon a strange outfit appeared in his hands.

"What, what is this? Why, why...!" Gao Yueting stared at the object in his hand, speechless with shock.

To put it simply, it means doing what should be done and doing what shouldn't be done.

Is this something she can see? Is this something a princess could use?! And what do those black rabbit ears you have to do with my breakthrough?!

Seemingly noticing Gao Yueting's shock, Chen Xuan slowly said, "These items each correspond to different meridians in the body. These are all very common, and I'm sure Your Highness can tell."

"..."

Gao Yueting opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

"This thing? I could never even make a dent in it! I've never heard of anything like it in my entire life!"

However, the proud Princess Gao, who had always been strong-willed, naturally couldn't let go of her pride: "Ahem, I, I naturally know, you don't need to tell me!"

"In that case..."

Chen Xuan slowly stood up and said in a pretentious manner, "Your Highness, we need to find a quiet place to concentrate on refining the elixir."

"My room, my room is the quietest place."

Chen Xuan's heart stirred slightly, but on the surface he still pretended to be a gentleman: "Alright, then I'll do as Your Highness says. I'll excuse myself for a moment. Your Highness, please use the tools first."

"How about we call it a day?" Gao Yueting backed down.

"I do not mind."

"However, if this pill is left for too long, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced!"

"..."

"Alright, alright! Why do you seem so eager for me to take some pills? Did you add poison to them?" Gao Yueting asked suspiciously.

"This is my formula for refining pills. Your Highness, you can check it and compare it yourself. You also recorded it with a recording stone, so you can open it and take a look."

Gao Yueting took the prescription, glanced at Chen Xuan's unwavering expression, and finally spoke softly:

"You, you go to the outer room and leave for a moment!"
