Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

Just as she stepped across the threshold of Yunyao Garden, a hurried and angry voice suddenly rang out behind her: "Lu Lingxi Yao, you stop right there!"

Lu Lingqingyue's face was flushed red, like a blooming rose. When she woke up yesterday morning, she found her clothes disheveled. Her outer robe was carelessly thrown aside, and her inner lining clung tightly to her body, revealing her bare shoulders. There were also red marks scattered on her neck and shoulders. She couldn't understand what had happened, but her first thought was that Lu Lingxiyao was behind it.

Lu Lingxi turned around and looked at her calmly, without mockery or smugness.

Her reaction only added fuel to the fire for Lu Lingqingyue, who was already on the verge of anger.

"Did you have someone do something to me?"

Before Lu Lingxi could speak, Zhixia spoke first, "Miss, the fact that you are standing here safely is thanks to my young lady's help."

However, these words sounded ironic to Lu Lingqingyue. She sneered inwardly, dismissing Lu Lingxiyao's "good intentions" with disdain. How could Lu Lingxiyao be so kind? Humph! Don't even think about using such methods to gain my gratitude. The man in black that night was clearly arranged by her.

"I've remembered this debt. One day, I'll make you pay for what you've done." Lu Lingqingyue said before turning and leaving.

Seeing this, Zhi Xia couldn't help but shout at the figure that was about to disappear from sight: "Young Miss, how can you be so ungrateful? If it weren't for my young lady's intervention, your body would have been defiled by Lin Chujie long ago. Now, instead of being grateful, you turn around and bite the hand that feeds you. It's truly disheartening!"

Seeing Zhi Xia's sullen expression, Lu Lingxi Yao grabbed her wrist and smiled indulgently, "Alright, alright, there's no need to get angry with that kind of person. If you get upset, I'll feel sorry for you."

That day, Lu Lingyun finally finished his family affairs and had some free time. It had been a few days since he had seen his beloved granddaughter, Lu Lingxi Yao, and he wanted to see what she had been busy with lately. He was somewhat unhappy that she hadn't had time to come and pay her respects to him.

Before even reaching the door, an unusual fragrance wafted to my nose. It was a blend of the essence of herbs and trees with a subtle sweetness, fresh and refined, as if it could wash away the troubles of the world and bring peace to my heart.

Lu Lingyuntian couldn't help but stop, close his eyes and take a deep breath. He had never encountered such a medicinal fragrance before, and an indescribable surprise and curiosity welled up in his heart.

"Could it be that this fragrance is emanating from the pills that Yao Yao refined herself?"

He thought to himself, imagining his granddaughter's clever and lively appearance, and how she was focused on operating the alchemy furnace. This made Lu Lingyun quicken his pace.

"Yaoyao, are you there?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhixia opened the door and greeted Lu Lingyuntian with a smile, giving him a respectful bow.

Seeing this, Lu Lingyun waved his hand gently, indicating that Zhixia did not need to be so polite, and then went straight to the door of the alchemy room where Lu Lingxi was.

Inside the alchemy chamber, Lu Lingxi stood in the center, her left hand gently twirling, flames leaping in her palm; her right hand lightly caressed the void, wood-elemental spiritual energy gathering into shape. Her movements were fluid and precise, every detail revealing her profound understanding and extraordinary skill in alchemy, clearly beyond the reach of a novice.

Witnessing this scene, Lu Lingyuntian felt an indescribable surge of excitement. He thought that his precious granddaughter could bring a person whose spiritual veins had been completely destroyed back to life. If such an ability were to spread, it would surely cause a great uproar.

At this moment, he longed to take her out and show her off, but he also understood that with such talent, without sufficient strength, she would be more likely to become a target of others' covetousness. In order to protect Lu Lingxi from external disturbances, he had to bury this pride and honor deep in his heart and turn it into silent protection.

Therefore, he simply stood quietly to the side, his eyes filled with love and pride, without making a sound, for fear of disturbing Lu Lingxi Yao's alchemy.

Fifteen minutes later, two dazzling golden pills slowly condensed from the void, radiating a soft and mysterious glow. As they appeared, a fresh and invigorating fragrance instantly filled the air.

Lu Lingyuntian's eyes were filled with surprise. In his memory, he had never seen such a wonderful and fragrant pill.

Lu Lingxi took out the pills and walked towards Lu Lingyuntian, handing one of them to his palm. "Grandpa, take this."

Lu Lingyuntian's eyes shifted from surprise to delight. He stared at Lu Lingxiyao in disbelief, and with trembling hands, he took the pill. Then, he put the pill into his mouth, and instantly, a cool and refreshing sensation spread from the tip of his tongue. Immediately afterward, a warm power rose from his dantian, like the warm spring sun, gently enveloping his body and slowly spreading to his limbs, bringing an unprecedented sense of comfort.

Sensing this miraculous change, Lu Lingyuntian couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, his voice brimming with excitement, "What are the miraculous effects of this pill?"

Lu Lingxi smiled slightly and replied succinctly, "These are pills to enhance cultivation."

After saying that, she put the remaining golden pill into an exquisite jade bottle and handed it to Lu Lingyuntian, continuing, "Take this one in five days. If everything goes smoothly, within half a month, you will not only be able to fully recover your former cultivation, but you will also have the opportunity to break through to the Spirit Venerable realm."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingyun seemed to be completely overwhelmed by a wave of joy, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Ten years may be just a blink of an eye for ordinary people, but for Lu Lingyuntian, it was a long period of stagnation in his cultivation and disheartening.

Countless times he went into seclusion, only to return disappointed time and again. That despair almost consumed him. But now, his granddaughter told him that not only could he regain his former strength, but he also had a chance to break through to the Spirit Venerable realm. This news was like a beacon in the darkness. How could he not be happy? How could he not be excited?

"Yaoyao, my precious granddaughter, you gave me hope, thank you!"

Looking at Lu Lingyuntian's excited expression, Lu Lingxi Yao felt a warm current well up in her heart. She smiled gently. Although she was not good at expressing her emotions with words, her sincerity and joy were conveyed to Lu Lingyuntian through her eyes.

Lu Lingyun frowned slightly, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes. He slowly spoke, "Yaoyao, about you being an alchemist... Grandpa has mixed feelings. You've changed, become so powerful, possessed spiritual power, and your cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. You've also mastered such a noble skill as alchemy. This should be the greatest honor for our family, and I should feel extremely gratified."

He paused, his gaze gently falling on Lu Lingxi's calm face, and continued, "But for some reason, a sense of worry has inexplicably arisen in my heart. I remember in the past, although you had no spiritual power, you always loved to cling to me. That pure and innocent dependence made Grandpa feel very warm. Now, you seem so indifferent to people and things, and you are good to me too, but there seems to be an indescribable distance in that closeness, which makes Grandpa feel a little lost."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi Yao smiled gently and gently grasped Lu Lingyun Tian's slightly trembling hand. "Grandpa, I understand your feelings. I have indeed changed, but I have become stronger and more independent. I want to become an alchemist to protect myself and my cherished family. I know that this identity will put me in some unknown dangers, but I assure you that I will be careful and never let myself become a burden to the family, nor will I let myself get into unnecessary trouble."

Her voice was soft yet powerful, each word like a warm spring breeze gently caressing Lu Lingyuntian's heart.

"As for the sense of distance within that closeness, perhaps it's because I've grown up and learned to express my love and care in different ways. Please believe me, no matter how I change, my respect and love for you will never change."

As Lu Lingyun looked into his granddaughter's wise and resilient eyes, his worries gradually dissipated, replaced by deep satisfaction and pride.

He gently patted Lu Lingxi's hand and smiled, "Good child, Grandpa believes in you. Remember, no matter what lies ahead, the Lu Ling family will always be your strongest support."
