I Can Merge Techniques

Chapter 446: Chapter 150: Breaking Limit, Ghost Fire Burning Soul Sacrifice Skill; Breakthrough, Yin Demon Observing Lotus Divine Power Realm

Chu Fan was resting his mind with his eyes closed. Hearing her words, he replied casually, "An Elixir? What kind? Is it that impressive?"

"Yes." Mo Yunzi lowered her voice to a mysterious whisper. "It can treat... a condition of slackened core tendons."

Chu Fan froze.

’Slackened core tendons?’

’What does that mean?’

’It sounds like some kind of... incurable disease?’

But he truly had no idea what it was.

Yet he couldn’t very well ask her outright.

’Wouldn’t that just make me look ignorant?’

So, Chu Fan simply kept quiet and pretended to continue his meditation.

When Mo Yunzi saw his silence, she became even more certain of her suspicions.

She couldn’t help but sigh to herself. ’Alas, so the Young Master truly suffers from an unspeakable ailment. But no matter. The Yin Demon Sect’s secret formula will definitely save him!’

She immediately continued, "That secret formula uses pure Demonic Qi and Evil Qi to stimulate the body’s fundamental essence. Its effects are incredibly potent. It can even cure someone who has reached the state of ’qi so depleted it no longer rises or serves its function.’"

"’Qi so depleted it no longer rises or serves its function...’" Chu Fan repeated subconsciously.

’Wait!’

He snapped his eyes open. A Spiritual Light flashed in his mind, and he instantly understood the meaning of her words.

He whipped around, eyes gleaming, an expression of uncontrollable joy spreading across his face!

Seeing his excited state, Mo Yunzi grew even more certain, thinking to herself, ’It seems the Young Master’s condition is quite severe. That’s why he’s losing his composure like this just from hearing there’s a cure.’

But then she heard Chu Fan say excitedly, "Then... if this Elixir were to be successfully refined..."

Mo Yunzi immediately jumped in. "Yes, Young Master! Once it’s refined, it will be able to cure—"

"I mean," Chu Fan interrupted her excitedly, "if this Elixir were refined, could it be sold for an astronomical price?"

"Sell... for an astronomical price?" Mo Yunzi was dumbfounded.

She was just trying to be kind, wanting to use her sect’s secret medicine to treat the Young Master’s impotence.

’But why is the Young Master thinking about selling the Elixir for money?’

Mo Yunzi replied blankly, "This Elixir could indeed fetch a high price, but the required ingredients are extremely difficult to find. Furthermore, the refining process requires introducing Demonic Qi and Evil Qi, which has immense negative consequences. Ordinary people wouldn’t dare go near it."

"Is that so?" The joyful look on Chu Fan’s face vanished instantly, replaced by profound disappointment.

’And here I thought I’d found a golden road to riches.’

’If this could be mass-produced, it would sell like crazy across the realm!’

’What a shame, a real shame...’

Seeing his disappointed expression, Mo Yunzi thought he was worried about himself and quickly consoled him. "There’s no need to be disheartened, Young Master. Our Yin Demon Sect has a Secret Technique that can neutralize the Demonic Qi and Evil Qi within the Elixir. It makes the medicinal properties gentle, so it won’t corrode your meridians or harm your fundamental essence."

"You can do that? Then as long as we find the ingredients, we can still refine it and give it to ordinary people?" Chu Fan asked, slightly taken aback.

Then, the realization slowly dawned on him. "You... why were you using me as an example?"

As he finished speaking, his face instantly turned green. "You... why did you bring this Elixir up with me in the first place?"

"You think I’m impotent?!"

"I wouldn’t dare... I was only thinking of your well-being, Young Master..." Mo Yunzi’s face went pale with fright as she scrambled to explain.

Chu Fan was livid!

’This is outrageous! Simply intolerable!’

Any man would be unable to endure such a misunderstanding!

He sat up abruptly, glaring viciously at Mo Yunzi. "You’ve got a lot of nerve, daring to suspect that I..."

Before he could finish, his entire body froze in an instant, as if he’d been struck by an Immobilization Technique.

He slowly turned his head. There, standing gracefully under the moonlight not far from the cave entrance, were Cyan Snake and Li Qingxue.

Both of them were staring wide-eyed, looking in disbelief at the scandalous scene inside the cave.

’It’s over... I’m really done for this time. There’s no way I can explain my way out of this.’

Right now, Mo Yunzi was wearing nothing but her undergarments!

Chu Fan threw up his hands. "Why are you all looking at me like that? I didn’t do anything... I swear I didn’t do anything!"

Li Qingxue, her face flushed red, slowly walked over with Cyan Snake. They were both carrying exquisite food containers from which wisps of steam still escaped.

’You really didn’t do anything? ...Then why is Mo Yunzi undressed, with the two of you so close together?’

Li Qingxue kept her head down, as if trying to hide the burning blush on her cheeks.

Mo Yunzi, however, watched them approach, her lovely eyes narrowing slightly as a flicker of hard-to-detect provocation and hostility passed through them.

"Ahem!"

Chu Fan coughed drily, so embarrassed he wished the ground would swallow him whole. "Senior Sister, Sister Bai, you... please don’t misunderstand. I was just angry a moment ago, so..."

Li Qingxue didn’t say a word, simply walking silently to a flat Stone.

She opened the food container, spread out a few wide lotus leaves, and then took out the delicate pastries and dishes from inside, arranging them one by one on the leaves.

The atmosphere was so awkward you could cut the tension with a knife.

Chu Fan felt that this was the longest, most agonizing meal of his entire life. Every minute seemed to stretch on for a century.

As they ate, he found he could no longer bear the bizarre silence.

He whipped his head around, his face dark, and glared at Mo Yunzi, who was feigning innocence. "You!" he ordered. "Tell them what we were just doing!"

Hearing his order, Mo Yunzi just gave a bewitching smile and replied in a crystal-clear voice, "Answering you two sisters, we were just discussing how to refine an Elixir that treats impotence."

"COUGH... COUGH COUGH COUGH!"

Chu Fan, who was in the middle of stuffing a piece of osmanthus cake into his mouth, choked on the spot.

One hand still holding the pastry, he pointed a finger at the sweetly smiling Mo Yunzi, his face flushed beet-red, unable to utter a single word.

Across from him, Li Qingxue and Cyan Snake’s eyes went wide in unison, their faces masks of utter disbelief.
