Becoming an Immortal Starts with a Hundredfold Increase

Li Lang got up and walked towards the bathtub.

Behind her, a lark untied the beaded curtain, making a tinkling sound.

With his back to Yun Que and the two maids, he took off his clothes and quickly climbed into the bathtub.

A warm sensation instantly spread throughout my body, melting away all the tension.

Li Lang felt every pore on his body open up, and he subconsciously leaned lazily against the bathtub.

The misty white fog blurred my vision. The peony petals spread in the bucket, their fragrance mingling with the steam, were slowly inhaled, soothing my entire being.

My mind instantly calmed down.

Li Lang closed his eyes, recalling everything that had happened when he met Wang Muying that day, and pondered it over and over in his heart.

With only twenty days left to live, there is currently no way to find a detoxifying pill.

Since Wang Muying dared to offer murder in exchange for the antidote, she must have had some confidence, even if killing would put her in danger, it was her only chance of survival at the moment.

Killing someone is dangerous, but there is a glimmer of hope.

If we don't try, we'll only be waiting to die.

As for his predecessor's idea of ​​begging the Qiao family for mercy and to be given elixirs, he didn't take it to heart at all.

A person cannot live without a backbone!

You can lower your head to avoid disaster, but you must never kneel down to beg for survival!

Half an incense stick later.

Li Lang could clearly feel the water temperature in the bucket dropping.

His thoughts were interrupted, and he slowly opened his eyes. All his fatigue vanished, replaced by a feeling of comfort.

Didn't they say the young lady would be here soon?

Li Lang couldn't help but purse his lips.

A vague sense of loss crept into my heart.

Looking around, Yun Que and her maid had already left sometime earlier.

He was now alone in the room. A quick glance around revealed that the clothes that had been on the wooden stool beside him had vanished.

"I..." Li Lang was speechless for a moment.

He glanced back at the bed.

Am I supposed to lie naked in bed like yesterday, like an ancient concubine waiting for the emperor's favor?

A strange sense of resistance welled up inside me.

Just then, his ears twitched.

creak...

The door behind me was pushed open.

Li Lang suddenly turned around.

Even through the beaded curtain, he could feel the cold elegance emanating from Qiao Susu's exquisite face.

Qiao Susu subconsciously looked into the inner room, her gaze landing on Li Lang, but she looked away in an instant.

Li Lang had no time to react.

Qiao Susu raised her hand and waved it, and the glass lamp in the room went out instantly.

The entire room was plunged into darkness in an instant.

Whether it was a misperception or not, at the very moment the glass lamp went out, Li Lang saw the vermilion jade pendant on Qiao Susu's ear, which made her earlobes appear slightly flushed.

Followed by.

Li Lang then felt that familiar pressure sweep over his entire body once again.

He moved slightly and found himself tightly bound by that oppressive force.

Got it!

Again!

really.

An aura of someone at the eighth level of Qi Refining arrived in quick succession.

Li Lang felt a sudden lightness in his body, and then he was sent flying backward.

When he focused his attention again, all he could see was a pink gauze curtain.

Li Lang glanced sideways at Qiao Susu.

At this moment, the moonlight shines down.

He saw Qiao Susu still wearing a pink undergarment, lifting the beaded curtain as she walked in.

In the hazy light, the patterns on the peony stamens of the undergarment were faintly raised, making them particularly eye-catching.

The moonlight shone on her slender, jade-like legs, giving them a faint glow.

Li Lang's nostrils twitched slightly as the fragrance of peonies drew ever closer.

Immediately afterwards, the moonlight was blocked by the figure.

Qiao Susu lightly touched the ground with her toes, and gracefully rose up, slowly landing at the foot of the bed.

Li Lang's gaze swept over the scene quickly.

It still looks like a peach shape.

The peach tip is slightly upturned, presenting a beautiful arc.

Just then, a ray of light flashed in the corner of his eye. As soon as Li Lang came to his senses, he stuffed a pill into his mouth.

"I'll put some pressure on you sooner or later."

After those words popped into his mind, Li Lang was completely lost...

Inside the peony garden, insects chirped, and moonlight shone down, creating a white glow.

In the dim light, a figure could be seen, moving with the swaying and undulations of a galloping horse.

……

The moon's shadow shifts westward.

On a peony petal, a dewdrop gradually gathers, and as the sun rises at dawn, it shines with a crystalline glow.

thump...

dong dong...

The morning bell tolls leisurely.

The entire market seemed to come alive with the sound of the bell, and people gradually took to the streets.

Inside the Qiao residence.

The maids and servants also got busy.

As the final bell tolled.

Li Lang slowly opened his eyes and subconsciously looked around.

The room remained empty.

At this time.

Yun Que entered through the door carrying a tray, turned her head to look behind the beaded curtain, and said with a smile, "Young master, breakfast is ready."

He then placed the tray on the table.

Then take out the neatly folded clothes and place them on the small stool behind the beaded curtain.

With a casual flick of his wrist, he packed up the bathtub, turned around, and quietly left.

Li Lang got up, dressed, and went to the table.

A bowl of spiritual porridge, a plate of spiritual dishes.

at the same time.

Inside another courtyard house next to the peony garden.

The same bowl of spiritual porridge and the same plate of spiritual dishes.

Qiao Susu put down her jade chopsticks. "Is this true?"

"It's truly a successful jade plate!" Yun Que exclaimed from behind. "Even the young master couldn't believe it. It's clear that the young master is very perceptive."

"Just lucky!" Qiao Susu got up, went to the middle of a pile of books, sat down cross-legged, and began to fiddle with the jade plate.

The lark finished clearing away the dishes and was about to leave.

Qiao Susu suddenly stopped fiddling with the jade plate, looked up at Yun Que, and said, "Wait a minute, give this to him."

As soon as he finished speaking, a storage bag appeared in his hand. "The information he wanted, and his monthly salary, are all here."

The lark stepped forward and quickly took it with both hands.

"Give the order that his monthly spirit stones will be halved from now on." Qiao Susu lowered her head and continued to fiddle with the array plate.

Yun Que looked bewildered and asked, puzzled, "Miss, why is that?"

"Given his personality, he won't take it all back if you give it to him." Qiao Susu didn't even look up. "You just need to tell him that the expenses for gathering information will be deducted from his monthly salary."

Lark nodded and left the room.

She hurried to the peony garden.

Just then, Li Lang pushed open the door and came out.

"Good morning, son-in-law!" Yun Que bowed slightly.

Li Lang returned the greeting with a cupped hand and smiled, "Good morning, Miss Yun Que."

"This is from Miss Yun Que. She said it contains the information you need," Yun Que said, stepping forward to hand over the storage bag.

Li Lang was slightly taken aback, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.

The Qiao family, with their abundant resources, managed to find out the information in just one day.

He quickly took it with both hands, and probed the storage bag with his divine sense. He found that in addition to a jade slip, there were ten spirit stones and a bottle of pills inside.

"Yun Que, these spirit stones and pills..." Li Lang looked at Yun Que with a puzzled expression.

Yun Que smiled and repeated Qiao Susu's instructions word for word.

Li Lang nodded.

It would be best if installment payments were available.

The lark bowed again, then took his leave.

A flash of light appeared on Li Lang's hand, and the jade slip from his storage bag materialized in his palm.

He probed the jade slip with his divine sense.

Portraits of the three people, along with information about their cultivation levels, appeared in his mind.

"One is at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and the other two are at the fourth level of Qi Refining?"

Li Lang's brows were furrowed tightly.

How could the original body, who was at the third level of Qi Refining, still manage to escape?

Something's not right. Nine out of ten things are definitely not right.

There's definitely something fishy going on here!

Li Lang put the jade slip back into his storage bag; now was not the time to consider this.

The most urgent task is to detoxify.

He left the ceremonial gate of the peony garden and walked straight towards the martial arts arena without stopping.

As soon as I turned the corner of the corridor, I could see a group of people gathered at the entrance of the outer courtyard.

Li Lang frowned slightly and walked over.
