A god-level alchemist, starting by manually crafting forbidden pills.

Confidentiality agreement?

What is that? Is it some kind of special elixir formula, or a token of love?

Does this mean my senior brother wants to sign some kind of contract with her?

Ah!

He loves me so much that he came up with this idea just to avoid losing me.

Ugh... How annoying...

Not long after, Luo Fan walked out of the alchemy room.

He was holding a piece of paper covered in writing and a box of red inkpad.

Luo Fan handed her the paper. "Sign the contract, and I'll refine pills for you."

Looking into Luo Fan's eyes as he looked at her, Midozhi felt her heart melting.

oops...

It really was a contract; I guessed right.

To keep me, they'll stop at nothing. How much do they love me?

I already said I'd give him a chance, why go through with this...?

Who can blame me for being so lovable and charming? It's all because of my irresistible allure.

whee!

next second.

She was stunned when she took it.

Why is this somewhat different from what I expected?

understood!

Playing hard to get!

My senior brother is truly unpredictable when it comes to matters of the heart...

She looked down at the densely packed clauses, which made her scalp tingle.

Article :

The contracting party (Midozhi) must strictly keep all the secrets of the alchemy formula (Luofan) confidential.

This includes, but is not limited to, the source of the elixir, its effects, and side effects.

Article :

The contracting party shall not disclose the alchemy formula's information to any third party in any form.

Those who violate this rule will suffer the backlash of inner demons, a regression in their cultivation, and the inability to break through to the next level for the rest of their lives.

Article :

Once the signatory receives the elixir, they may not give it away or resell it; they may only use it themselves.

Article 4:

If the contracting party violates any of the above provisions, the alchemy firm has the right to take necessary measures to hold them accountable.

This includes, but is not limited to, physical elimination.

There were more than twenty entries, which left her speechless; they were detailed and terrifying.

"Senior, what does 'physical annihilation' mean?"

She pointed to the fourth item and asked tentatively.

"Literal meaning."

Luo Fan remained expressionless. "If you betray me, I'll find a way to kill you."

"..."

Is it really that direct?!

Should she just say it directly...?

come on!

So, you just don't resist?

"But senior brother, all I want is a pill."

She looked aggrieved. "I think we don't need to sign such a scary thing, right?"

"You must sign!"

Luo Fan ignored her coquettishness and said, "You also need to make a great oath to your inner demons, with the Heavenly Dao as your witness."

No?

My senior brother...

I tried to use my charm on you, even preparing to be completely naked, but you're trying to use tricks on me?

Who set a trap for whom? And they still say there was no trap?

and many more!

It seems she handed the condom to Luo Fan herself, which made him feel safe.

I was completely played for nothing, sob sob...

Midozhi bit her lip. This agreement was too domineering; every clause was aimed at her.

But the temptation of the elixir was too great, and I didn't want to give it up.

Think about how Zhang Tie rose from the bottom of the Four Heroes to the top.

Wang Chong comprehended the Ghostly Shadow Tracking Step.

Li Huan broke through the bottleneck.

If I were to obtain one, I could break through my bottleneck, and then who would dare to say she's just a pretty face?

"Okay! I'll sign!"

She glared fiercely at Luo Fan.

This forced situation made her feel like she was being overpowered by thugs.

Luo Fan smiled and pushed the inkpad towards her.

Then she extended her slender fingers and pressed her fingerprint at the end of the agreement.

Then, as Luo Fan requested, she made a solemn oath to her inner demons.

"Heaven above, I, Midozhi, hereby swear that I will never reveal Senior Brother Luo Fan's alchemy secrets. If I break this vow, I am willing to suffer the backlash of inner demons and never be reincarnated!"

An invisible force seemed to descend and leave a mark on her consciousness.

Luo Fan put away the agreement with satisfaction. "Tell me what type of pill you want?"

"I want to improve my strength, and ideally, learn a powerful cultivation technique!"

Her eyes sparkled like stars.

"What are the specific requirements?"

Luo Fan asked, "For example, should we focus on attack, defense, movement techniques, or something else?"

"Movement technique!"

Without hesitation, Midozhi replied, "If I could improve my cultivation a little more, that would be even better!"

"Understood."

Luo Fan nodded. "Come pick it up in three days."

"That long?"

Midozhi was somewhat disappointed.

"Alchemy takes time."

Luo Fan said seriously, "I need to adjust the pill formula specifically according to your constitution."

Actually, I was lying to her.

He just needs time to study how to refine a pill that can enhance movement techniques while keeping the side effects under control.

Furthermore, given Wang Zhong's battle against Zhang Tie, it's likely that it won't be long before it attracts the attention of the sect.

He needs to keep a low profile during this period to avoid any unforeseen complications.

"All right."

Midozhi could only purse her lips and say, "Then I'll come find you in three days."

Luo Fan responded, then suddenly remembered something.

He handed over the list of elixirs that he had prepared while writing the agreement.

"You must bring your own materials. In addition, you will need to pay 100 spirit stones as a reward when you collect the pills."

Upon hearing these words, Midozhi stumbled as she walked away, almost falling to the ground.

She turned around in disbelief, glanced at the list in her hand, and her beautiful eyes almost popped out.

"So many!"

She didn't say anything about the 100 spirit stones, but why did she have to provide the materials herself?

Even if you bring your own, the herbs listed above would probably wipe out an entire medicinal herb field.

Do you think she's a farmer who comes to her to buy goods?

Does she look like a rich man?

Luo Fan shrugged. "If you think it's too much, you don't have to. My pill formulas are naturally to be kept strictly confidential."

In fact, he didn't have many spiritual materials left, and he couldn't openly collect a large number of medicinal herbs. There were plenty of easy targets, so why not take advantage of them?

Who told him to be Bai Juyi's elder brother?

Freebie!

"Senior brother, please be lenient with me!"

If force doesn't work, try gentleness. After all, she's a soft woman, the perfect counter to a tough guy like Luo Fan.

Seeing that her attempts to charm him had no effect, she stopped shaking Luo Fan.

Should I act aloof and distant with her?

very good!

Successfully caught her attention!

Just wait!

Sooner or later, she'll make him kneel at her feet and lick her toes.

She took a few deep breaths to stop her heaving chest, walked to the door, and turned back.

"Senior brother, is that agreement the same as our love pact?"

Her smile was both sly and alluring. "I lack nothing but men. I'll take care of you from now on."

"..."

Why did this woman's words seem to have a hidden meaning to him? Was she trying to refine an elixir but ended up getting herself involved?

not good!

She wants to get something for free!

Not only did they take his pills for free, they also wanted to take him and his people with them.

What a vicious woman!

She looks sweet, but why is her heart so dark?

I'll definitely expose her later to see if she's truly black-hearted or white-hearted.

Looking up, Luo Fan watched the pretty figure disappear into the moonlight and breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally gotten rid of this troublesome woman.

You can hide it for a while, but not forever; sooner or later, people will notice.

Midozhi's arrival served as a wake-up call for him; as Kong Lingfei's disciple, it was difficult for her not to be noticed.

If there were a pill that could mask the medicinal properties, this wouldn't have happened.

correct!

Concealing Breath Pill!

This pill can mask the lingering scent after taking other medicines, making it the perfect solution to any problem!

"Is Junior Brother Luo here?"

As that slightly arrogant voice rang out from outside the courtyard gate, Luo Fan turned around.

It was a young man dressed in brocade robes; the newcomer was Ji Kun, the eldest disciple of the Hall of Deacons.

"So it's Senior Brother Ji."

Luo Fan stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and asked, "May I ask what brings you here, Senior Brother?"

He was puzzled.

This cold-faced senior brother usually looked down on everyone and rarely came to Danfeng unless absolutely necessary.

Why did you suddenly come today?
