Acheron: A Medicinal Bath? I Have to Keep an Eye on You! / This Jade Token Symbolizes the Friendship Between the Xianzhou and Lin Shuang
Lin Shuang thought about it and realized that it made sense, so she gave a brief account of what had happened yesterday.
Qingque's expression upon hearing this was quite a sight.
"You actually cleaved that thing? Goodness, you're not on par with our General, are you? What kind of friend have I made?"
With a gasp, Qingque's cup of Immortal's Joy Tea was almost half empty.
That's an exaggeration, that's an exaggeration.
Unable to bear hearing others praise her to her face, Lin Shuang waved her hands repeatedly.
"If you keep bragging, I'm going to throw you out."
"Hey sis, don't be like that, I came here specifically to play cards with you."
Qingque made a sealing gesture, then chuckled.
Then, she took out her portable Miniature Mahjong Table and the Emperor's Jade.
Just the two of us?
"What, you two are pretty good at playing cards, huh? Let me have a go at cards first, or I'll be possessed by Scythe of Annihilation tonight."
I think you're just Moe-Mew Form.
Lin Shuang rolled her eyes at Qingque, who was full of energy and had Scythe of Annihilation.
"Alright, alright, sis, let's talk about it at the card table."
Qingque beckoned, about to start throwing the Dice, when Lin Shuang reached out and pressed down:
"Wait a minute, let me ask a friend if they want to come over."
Lin Shuang opened Silver Wolf's chat window on her phone and asked if she was free to come over and play the special Xianzhou game with her.
Although asking Firefly would likely make her more willing, Lin Shuang still preferred to ask Silver Wolf for help when it came to getting more people together.
Silver Wolf was quick to respond; as soon as he heard there was a game to play, he immediately turned on a projector.
Then, upon seeing the card table, his face fell.
Silver Wolf: "(???)"
P. S.: I've been banned again. I don't know how many days I'll have to wait this time. It's frustrating not being able to post.
Volume 1: Chapter 140 Acheron: A Medicinal Bath? I must keep an eye on it!
Silver Wolf looked up at Lin Shuang with a speechless expression:
"(???) Is this the featured game you were talking about?"
Seeing this, Lin Shuang quickly grabbed her hand with a smile and pressed her down against the table.
Upon receiving Lin Shuang's glance, Qingque immediately handed the Dice to Silver Wolf and said:
"Hey friend, this is a wildly popular entertainment activity in Luofu. Shall we give it a try and see?"
Silver Wolf wasn't entirely uninterested.
However, the game was not quite what she had imagined, making her subconsciously want to take Prometheus and tap Lin Shuang on the head.
So, after Qingque's enthusiastic persuasion, Silver Wolf stayed at the table and started playing Three-Player Mahjong.
Silver Wolf played with even more intensity than Lin Shuang had anticipated.
Qingque was so excited that she finally managed to defeat Emperor's Jade, whom she hadn't been able to defeat in a long time, that she remained excited for most of the day.
She even ate all the Pastries she had brought, as well as those prepared by Lin Shuang.
However, it was clear that the Pastries and tea prepared for the two of them were a bit excessive.
If it weren't for the fact that it was time for Silver Wolf to go back and continue playing her game, Qingque probably would have fought until dawn.
At that point, Qingque would definitely not be able to hold on any longer.
But now, when Qingque walks, she has to hold onto the wall and clutch her stomach.
Before leaving, he reminded Lin Shuang one last time that she must rescue her from the Divination Department the next day so they could play cards together.
It's like someone who's been holding it in for too long finally got to vent.
I wonder if this person will be able to sleep tonight.
Lin Shuang chuckled as she saw Qingque off.
Silver Wolf hasn't gone back yet.
Back in the living room, Lin Shuang looked at the Silver Wolf lying on the sofa.
Aren't you going back?
"It's just a projector; it doesn't matter where you project it."
Silver Wolf slightly raised his eyes and glanced at it.
"Speaking of which, you caused quite a stir yesterday. I reckon many powerful forces already know that something big happened on Xianzhou Luofu."
"So fast?"
"Nonsense, that's a huge knife mark, even a blind person could feel it."
Silver Wolf rolled his eyes at Lin Shuang; that thing was now like Changle Heaven Landmark.
Does this person really understand the significance of this matter to the Xianzhou Alliance?
Many forces are now speculating about what problems Luofu has encountered, and the other members of the Immortal Xianzhou Alliance may also come to inquire about the situation.
"So you've achieved your goal on the Xianzhou?"
Silver Wolf asked curiously, "They only know that Lin Shuang's goal in staying on the Xianzhou is that Lord Ravager, but what exactly she will do is unclear from the Script Elio gave us."
Lin Shuang sat down next to Silver Wolf, picked up her unfinished bottle of Immortal's Joy Tea, and nodded.
"It's basically finished. What? Are you urging me to go to Azur Star?"
"Tch—go if you want, I'm just reminding you."
After saying that, the Silver Wolf's projection turned into data and dissipated into the air.
Lin Shuang was indeed considering going to Azur Star.
The Herta Space Station is definitely a must-visit, whether it's for the little rich woman, the Herta itself, or even Screwllum, whom we might encounter later.
If you can get a chance to draw cards from these powerful individuals.
Lin Shuang was still hoping to draw something good.
When night fell, Acheron naturally returned.
As soon as he returned, he checked whether Lin Shuang had taken her medicine on time during the day.
Then he went to the bathroom to prepare for today's Medicinal Bath.
While Acheron was preparing the Medicinal Bath, he also cooked dinner.
This feeling of being taken care of was quite peculiar to Lin Shuang.
"By the time we finish dinner, the Medicinal Bath should be ready. We can rest for a bit and then go for a soak."
At the dining table, Acheron stared intently at Lin Shuang, his words carrying a hidden meaning.
Lin Shuang found it strange, glancing at Acheron while biting her chopsticks, blinking and thinking for a moment before saying:
"Thank you, Gepard, for going to so much trouble. Thankfully, I'm recovering well today, so I don't need to trouble you to watch over me while I'm soaking."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Acheron visibly paused for a moment.
Although the recovery is extremely fast, one might not even notice the pause in Acheron's life if one is not careful.
But Lin Shuang's gaze never left Acheron, so she naturally caught this moment of unease.
Lin Shuang finally understood.
This guy was waiting for me here!
Okay, okay, I never expected you to be like this, Gepard.
I think you really do have some kind of peculiar fetish.
Lin Shuang narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked over, while Acheron acted as if nothing had happened.
They even tried to overturn Lin Shuang's decision:
"You've only been recovering for a day. Even if you seem to be able to walk and run, your real injury hasn't healed yet. I think it's better to keep an eye on you."
"Once Lin Shuang has recovered a bit more, you won't need any more care."
Not only was it very natural, but it even left itself enough room for maneuver.
She indicated that she made this proposal out of genuine concern for Lin Shuang's health and safety.
Completely selfless.
But Lin Shuang clearly didn't believe it.
"... I've recovered to about this level now. I was just taking a Medicinal Bath, not going into a fight."
But Acheron shook his head very seriously and explained:
"You can't be so simplistic. You're probably having trouble even mustering your strength to fight right now, which proves that your body is severely damaged. The fact that you seem fine on the surface is most likely just because you're being supported by the Power of the Permanence."
As he said this, Acheron even frowned, his gaze seemingly trying to pierce through Lin Shuang's clothes and look into her body:
"But your the Permanence power is not strong enough; the repair process is not only slow but also uncontrollable. I'm worried that you might develop symptoms similar to those of the Sushang."
"Vidyadhara... you mean the process of rebirth?"
"Hmm, we know too little about the Power of the Permanence. Can you guarantee that this 'slumber-rebirth' process won't occur?"
"..."
Well, Lin Shuang really can't guarantee it; the Path of the Permanence is indeed a relatively mysterious Path.
After all, the Aeon disappeared so inexplicably, so it's hard to understand where this 'The Permanence' The Permanence went.
Although Lin Shuang felt that her level shouldn't trigger this mechanism, Lin Shuang couldn't really guarantee it.
She herself cheated her way to Path of the Permanence, and in terms of understanding the Permanence, she might not even have as profound an understanding Acheron.
Seeing Lin Shuang remain silent.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Acheron's lips, followed by a light cough.
"Cough... So I think that care during the Medicinal Bath is necessary until your body has recovered to a certain extent."
"..."
Lin Shuang always felt that Acheron had ill intentions, but her reasons were so reasonable that Lin Shuang didn't even know where to begin to refute them.
Volume 1: Chapter 141 This Jade Seal only symbolizes the affection between Xianzhou and Lin Shuang.
They stayed on the Xianzhou for a few more days.
During these days, Lin Shuang has been unable to use her full strength, so she has been focusing on training the Grand Void Sword Qi - Heart Essence that she obtained through the lottery.
That's all I can do; after all, other things aren't easy to work with either.
To be honest, Lin Shuang felt that her progress was quite good; she only needed a little bit of power of The Nihility to get into the zone immediately.
The Power of the Permanence can also prevent Lin Shuang from leaning too far towards Nihility.
The combination of these two factors allowed Lin Shuang to make rapid progress in cultivating her Heart Essence.
She even felt that her cultivation over the past few days had allowed her to reach the second realm, the level of 'Dustless'.
I spent these peaceful days in a fulfilling way.
Lin Shuang also felt that she had recovered to about 70-80% and was now able to use the Herrscher Core to fight normally.
Of course, it's still a bit short of full power, but that's only going to happen in the next few days.
