The female lead thought she had a "proud and arrogant" character script.

"Perhaps there are other ways."

Having made a guess, the next step is to verify it.

Luo Qingcheng asked first, "Does anyone here know this Xue Zhao? Does he have any spirit stones?"

Wan knew perfectly well that she was trying to use the same trick again: first save the unconscious Xue Zhao, then extort spirit stones from him.

Although Wanqing had already taught Xue Zhaofang a lesson for his inappropriate words and actions and his improper attitude towards her, she still disliked him very much.

Since she couldn't do anything about Luo Qingcheng anyway, she might as well cooperate with him to find out the situation.

She said, "Take it. With his fat and bloated appearance, no one would believe he doesn't have spirit stones."

How could Wan know if he had spirit stones?

But if there are no spirit stones, Luo Qingcheng will probably make him squeeze out all the resources to produce enough spirit stones.

Sure enough, Luo Qingcheng's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Gleaming with a green light, I pounced on it.

Luo Qingcheng took out a small porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and shoved it into the mouth of the unconscious Xue Zhao.

A foul-smelling pill rolled down and almost fell to the ground.

Luo Qingcheng held his breath, and with his other hand, he released a slight amount of spiritual energy and struck Xue Zhao's throat.

Xue Zhao opened his mouth, and the pill rolled smoothly into it.

While unconscious, Xue Zhao felt something with a very complicated and nauseating flavor enter his mouth.

As the substance melted, a variety of flavors—sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty—took turns appearing, forcefully bringing him back to his senses somewhat.

Before he was fully awake, he muttered, "Ugh, I won't eat, ugh, shit, ugh!"

Luo Qingcheng quickly retreated, afraid that the inconsiderate person would vomit on him.

She touched her chin and exclaimed in amazement that the pills she received were so effective. Her senior brother, who worked part-time at the Pill Pavilion in Wenjian City, hadn't lied to her. She would definitely go there to buy more next time.

Xue Zhao was so disgusted that he forced his eyes open.

The first thing he did after regaining consciousness was to turn over and vomit.

However, cultivators do not eat grains, so his stomach was empty. He retched for a long time but couldn't vomit anything.

Only saliva hung in strands from the corners of his mouth.

It took a while for the smell of the medicine to subside. At the same time, before she lost consciousness, a sensation of pain and itching, as if a hundred insects were crawling all over her body, swept over her.

Xue Zhao swayed unsteadily, feeling dizzy and lightheaded, and almost fell to the ground again.

Mu Shiyi was still waiting to hear clues, but seeing Xue Zhao's expression, she asked impatiently, "What's wrong with him now?"

Luo Qingcheng had no idea.

She doesn't offer after-sales service.

Wan carefully sniffed the lingering stench of the pill in the air, then covered her mouth and nose again with the handkerchief dusted with perfume powder. Her voice was muffled as she said, "Junior Sister Luo should have taken the Stinky Pill. It has the effects of clearing the mind and detoxifying. It can be used externally as incense, and its unique stench is what makes it effective. Junior Sister Luo directly stuffed the pill into Xue Zhao's mouth. Not only is the method of use wrong, but it can only last for a short while."

what?

Luo Qingcheng slapped his forehead.

She said she felt like she had forgotten something. It turned out that although the Stinky Pill was effective, it was because of its bizarre smell that her part-time senior brother gave it to her, and he specifically instructed her to take it externally.

"But it's alright." You'll be awake for a short while.

Luo Qingcheng concluded, standing three meters away from Xue Zhao, the source of the stench, and said, "Want to buy an antidote pill? Sixty thousand spirit stones for one, guaranteed to work!"

Xue Zhao vaguely heard the words "antidote pill," and although he didn't hear what Luo Qingcheng said otherwise, he quickly nodded.

Luo Qingcheng was happy.

She took another small jade bottle.

Wan knew she was a little further away from her, but Mu Shiyi was holding Mu Ziyuan and couldn't move, her expression complicated.

"Don't be afraid, this is a normal pill."

Luo Qingcheng casually reassured him, then pressed the opening of the small jade bottle against Xue Zhao's lips, prying them open.

The entire bottle of pills, a full ten pills, was poured in.

Hehe, 600,000 in hand!

Xue Zhao was so choked that his eyes rolled back, and some of the black aura swirling around his forehead dissipated.

At least I'm a little more sober now.

Upon closer inspection, her beauty was breathtaking. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were clear and bright, her face was fair and delicate, and her lips were rosy.

His expression was a bit lewd and mercenary.

But I guess he misread it.

Acting on instinct, Xue Zhao mumbled in a daze, "My beauty, are you married?"

what?

Luo Qingcheng didn't expect that his first question would be about this.

Xue Zhao ignored her response and continued, "My name is Xue Zhao. I am unmarried, have a modest fortune, and have no bad habits. I fell in love with you at first sight, and at second sight I was captivated. At third sight I will marry no one but you. I am willing to offer you everything, hoping that you will spend the rest of your life with me!"

Luo Qingcheng: ...

She glanced at Wan Qingchu, whose face was dark with anger, and seemed to know how this person had offended the number one beauty in the cultivation world.

A large slap landed on Xue Zhao's fat face.

There was a loud "pop" sound.

"Are you awake?" Luo Qingcheng raised his hand.

If you're still not fully alert, try again.

Xue Zhao's head was slapped crooked.

But finally he came to his senses, and looking up in a daze, he saw Wan Qingchu and his eyes lit up again.

Fairy Wan!

Fairy Wan seems to be in a bad mood. What's wrong?

Oops!

He just confessed his feelings to another woman in front of Fairy Wan. I hope Fairy Wan won't misunderstand.

No wonder Fairy Wan was so angry.

Xue Zhao quickly turned around and looked at Luo Qingcheng.

Alas, while the woman before me is beautiful, she is still slightly inferior to Fairy Wan.

He said regretfully, "I'm sorry, fairy, after much thought, I still prefer Fairy Wan. I can only disappoint your admiration."

His voice trailed off as he spoke, "But I can keep you as a pet outside—"

Before he could finish speaking, Luo Qingcheng slapped him again.

Two bright red handprints were symmetrically placed on his fat face.

This time, she didn't hold back.

The moment that slap landed, Xue Zhao felt as if his skull had been shattered.

Luo Qingcheng smiled slightly and asked again, "Are you awake now?"

Xue Zhao covered his face, finally realizing where he was.

Seeing that Luo Qingcheng's hands were shrouded in spiritual energy, as if he wanted to do it again, he quickly nodded, "Wake up, wake up!"

Luo Qingcheng sighed, seemingly regretting that he couldn't deliver the fatal blow, which startled Xue Zhao so much that his entire body of fat trembled.

Luo Qingcheng always had a high tolerance for being taken advantage of. Now that she was sober, and not a devil, she said gently, "Now that you're sober, let's settle the bill first."

"Wh-what account?"

"You just took my antidote pill, which cost 60,000 spirit stones each. You took ten, so the total cost is 600,000 spirit stones. Would you like to pay now or later?"

Xue Zhao was taken aback. "What antidote?"

He seemed to have some recollection of it, but not much.

Luo Qingcheng didn't want to explain. He stretched out his palm, his expression sinister, "Trying to renege on your debt?"

Xue Zhao shrank back, "No, no!"

Fearing that Luo Qingcheng might kill him with a single slap, Xue Zhao quickly convinced himself.

Although I don't know what magic pill I took, the beauty certainly wouldn't lie.

I don't know how I lost consciousness just now, she must have saved me!

Six hundred thousand spirit stones is a bargain compared to my precious life.

only--

"I cannot open the storage ring."

Luo Qingcheng was overjoyed.

It won't open, good thing it won't open!
