“It doesn’t matter.”
When Lou Xiaoxiao mentioned that the sky was going to darken, Lou Qianxue could not help but think of Dan Taiyuan, who was waiting for her at the hotel. She felt guilty about it.
Then, she hurriedly took out a Body Transformation Pill. “Sister Xiaoxiao, this is a pill I refined. You can eat this.”
This action surprised Lou Xiaoxiao, and an elated expression appeared on her face. “Qianxue, you can already refine pills?”
Lou Qianxue nodded. “Yes. Try it, Sister Xiaoxiao. However, it will be quite painful when you eat the Body Transformation Pill. But the more pain you endure, the more you will benefit. So please try your best to hang on if you feel pain later.”
Lou Xiaoxiao’s gloomy mood was gone. While checking out the round pill on her palm, she asked in a curious voice, “What does this pill do?”
“It can renew your bones and marrow and increase your natural talents.”
“What? Increase my natural talents?” Lou Xiaoxiao initially thought that this was just an ordinary pill. So when she heard what Lou Qianxue said, her eyes immediately widened. “It can actually increase one’s natural talents. What level is this pill? It’s so impressive! Isn’t this a pill that only big families can afford to eat?”
“Second-grade.”
“Second-grade!! Qianxue, did you really just learn how to refine pills?” Lou Xiaoxiao found it magical. She had never heard of anyone becoming a second-grade alchemist after just learning how to refine pills!
“Sister Xiaoxiao, don’t worry about so many things. Eat it first.”
After speaking, Lou Qianxue took out a pill herself and ate it. She then closed her eyes and started to absorb the medicinal powers.
When Lou Xiaoxiao saw that Lou Qianxue didn’t want to speak anymore, she also ate the pill in her hands.
Time slowly passed by.
Painful expressions appeared on both Lou Qianxue’s and Lou Xiaoxiao’s faces.
A person’s natural gifts and potential were limitless.
Even if one had a high natural talent, there was still space for improvement by eating the Body Transformation Pill.
Finally…
Half an hour had passed.
Lou Xiaoxiao grunted and opened her eyes. She was sweating so much that she felt as if she had just been pulled out from the ocean. She was breathless.
A layer of black dirt now covered her body, and Lou Xiaoxiao felt extremely uncomfortable. However, she was happy because she knew that these were the toxins her body had expelled after it had been transformed.
“I… I feel that my body has become much lighter. Plus, I now understood everything that I did not in the past! This is amazing, simply too amazing! The only downside is that it’s so smelly! I’m so smelly now! Qianxue—”
Lou Xiaoxiao was sharing her excitement with Lou Qianxue. However, she saw that Lou Qianxue was still sitting there with her eyes closed. Although a painful expression occasionally flashed past her beautiful face, she never woke up. It also appeared as though she wouldn’t wake up anytime soon.
Lou Xiaoxiao swallowed back the rest of her words and looked at Lou Qianxue in admiration.
Lou Qianxue’s natural talents were much stronger than hers, and it now seemed she was also better than her at enduring pain.
In the entire Lou Family—no, in the entire Tian Zhao Dynasty, no one at the age of sixteen could compare to Lou Qianxue.
At least, in Lou Xiaoxiao’s heart, this mysterious and beautiful younger sister of hers was the most powerful!
Lou Qianxue only woke up after the sky had darkened.
They had just reached a rest station, and Lou Potian decided to take a rest. They would continue the journey the next day.
At this time, they were already a distance away from Liuyun Prefecture. However, they would still take four-five days to reach Fengyang Prefecture.
Lou Qianxue and Lou Xiaoxiao alighted the carriage together. When Lou Potian booked the rooms, he planned to let Lou Qianxue and Lou Xiaoxiao stay in the same room.
He decided that, but when he was about to pay, Lou Qianxue suddenly said, “Wait!”
Everyone looked at her.
“Um, I might be training tonight. I’m afraid of bothering Sister Xiaoxiao. Grandpa, you should book another room!”
