Immortal Herbs Reforge the Body; Target: Snow Empress Embryo

Three days later, the carriage stopped in front of the White Tiger Duke Mansion in the capital of the Star Luo Empire.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu were already engaged, and Zhu Lu also had her own private courtyard here.

As soon as the two entered the mansion, they went directly to the main hall to pay their respects to the Duchess.

Dai Huabin's mother, Zhu Ying, came from the Star Luo Zhu Family. She was a well-maintained and elegant noblewoman.

She dotes on her youngest son the most, and is extremely satisfied with Zhu Lu, her future daughter-in-law.

In the main hall, Zhu Ying held Zhu Lu's hand and asked her about her well-being for a while, then turned her gaze to Ice Empress was following behind.

Ice Empress was still wearing that white skirt and jacket with green trim, paired with dark green pigtails and an exquisitely delicate face. No matter how you looked at it, she was an incredibly adorable little girl.

Zhu Ying's eyes lit up immediately.

"Huabin."

Zhu Ying smiled and pulled Dai Huabin aside, lowering her voice to ask,

"Whose daughter is this? She's so pretty."

You used to ignore all girls except Lulu, and I was worried you were too cold-hearted. Now it seems you've finally seen the light. What, are you planning to take her into your room?"

Dai Huabin's lips twitched as he listened.

He turned to look at Ice Empress, who was examining the furnishings in the main hall, and chuckled to himself.

Mother is treating Ice Empress like a child bride he brought home.

However, he didn't intend to explain.

After all, he was determined to win Ice Empress!

"Mother, this is Bing'er, a friend I brought back to stay temporarily," Dai Huabin said perfunctorily, going along with his mother's words.

Zhu Ying gave an "I understand" look, walked over and warmly took Ice Empress's hand:

"Bing'er, right? You're so pretty. Make yourself at home here, and just tell your aunt if you need anything."

Ice Empress was stunned by this sudden enthusiasm.

When has she, Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North, ever had her hand squeezed like this by a human?

But out of respect for Dai Huabin, she could only force a smile:

Thank you, Auntie.

After dealing with his mother, Dai Huabin took Zhu Lu and Ice Empress back to his private courtyard.

"Ice Empress, pick a guest room to rest in," Dai Huabin instructed, then pulled Zhu Lu directly into the private underground training room.

As soon as the door to the cultivation room closed, Zhu Lu asked impatiently:

"Huabin, what is the gift you mentioned?"

Dai Huabin didn't keep them in suspense. With a thought, he took out an exquisite jade box from the Undead Semi-Plane.

The moment the jade box was opened, a delicate and elegant fragrance filled the entire secret room.

Inside the box lay a white, crystalline plant, looking as pristine as a lotus root, with each leaf exuding a jade-like warmth.

"This is..." Although Zhu Lu didn't recognize it, she knew from the aura alone that it was no ordinary item.

Ice Empress, who had come to watch the spectacle, crossed his arms, leaned against the wall, and pursed his lips.

"You're not so bad, you still know to share the good stuff from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with her."

Dai Huabin ignored Ice Empress's sarcastic remarks and looked at Zhu Lu seriously, saying:

"This is called Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, a truly divine medicinal herb. Its effects are to nourish tendons and bones, and to unblock the seven meridians and eight extraordinary vessels."

In fact, when Dai Huabin was at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, he also considered whether or not to take the most famous "Lovesick Heartbreak Red" plant.

But as a time traveler who was familiar with the plot, he always felt that the thing was too eerie.

In the original novel, those who ate the Lovesick Heartbreak Red always seemed to have a tragic ending.

In comparison, Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone is much more substantial; you don't need to vomit blood, you can just eat it and take off.

"Lulu." Dai Huabin reached out and touched her soft, black hair.

"Ten thousand years ago, Zhu Zhuqing, the God of Speed among the original Shrek Seven Devils, consumed this very Immortal Herb. With it, your talent and physique will undergo a complete transformation."

Zhu Lu's eyes instantly reddened upon hearing the words "God of Speed".

She knew how precious the Immortal Herb was; there might not be more than a few plants to be found on the entire continent.

After going through great hardships to obtain it, Dai Huabin gave it to her immediately.

"Huabin..." Zhu Lu threw herself into his arms, hugging his waist tightly, her voice choked with emotion, "You've been so good to me, how can I ever repay you?"

Dai Huabin took the opportunity to put his arm around her and whispered in her ear:

"Why are you telling me all this?"

You are my future wife. We will grow stronger together and stand at the pinnacle of this world. You must know that Immortal Herb are the Foundation of Godhood. I don't want you to be able to look up to me from the mortal realm when I become a god."

Upon hearing these words, Ice Empress, who was leaning against the wall, slightly narrowed his emerald green pupils.

Looking at the two people embracing tightly, she suddenly felt a strange, inexplicable emotion.

In the world of Soul Beast, only the strong prey on the weak; betrayal and slaughter are the norm.

She had never seen anyone like Dai Huabin, who would give the other party top-tier resources without reservation, even linking it to the ethereal goal of becoming a god.

"Okay, stop hugging."

Ice Empress cleared his throat, interrupting the bubbling pink atmosphere in the air, "Hurry up and eat, I'll keep an eye on things for you."

Dai Huabin smiled, released Zhu Lu, and handed the jade box to her.

"Eat only the petals, then suck the stamens, swallow them, and immediately sit cross-legged to meditate and use your Soul Power to activate the medicine's effects."

Dai Huabin gave careful instructions.

Zhu Lu nodded, took a deep breath, and carefully picked up a pure white petal and put it in her mouth.

The petals melted in my mouth, turning into a cool liquid that flowed down my throat.

Following Dai Huabin's instructions, Zhu Lu ate the petals one by one, and finally sucked hard on the stamen.

After doing all this, she immediately sat down cross-legged on the spot, closed her eyes, and began to practice meditation.

In less than half a minute, a faint, shimmering white light began to emanate from Zhu Lu's body.

The light, like the luster of fine jade, made her already fair skin appear even more translucent.

Immediately afterwards, Sisi of dark gray impurities began to seep out from her pores. This was the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone and Muscle Cleansing helping her to expel the congenital impurities from her body.

Dai Huabin and Ice Empress stood on either side of her, keeping a close eye on her condition.

Time passed second by second.

The temperature in the cultivation room fluctuated with the changes in Zhu Lu's Soul Power, and the shimmering white light emanating from her body grew brighter and brighter.

One hour later.

Zhu Lu slowly opened her eyes. Her originally gray-black eyes were now as deep as the night sky, and a faint jade-colored light flashed in the depths of her pupils.

Her aura was more than twice as strong as before!

"How about it?"

Dai Huabin stepped forward and handed over a clean towel.

Zhu Lu took the towel and wiped the sweat and impurities from her face. She sensed the Soul Power within her body, then suddenly looked up, her face filled with ecstatic joy:

"Huabin! My Soul Power surged to the peak of level thirty-nine! I'm just a hair's breadth away from breaking through to level forty!"

Dai Huabin nodded in satisfaction.

In the original novel, Zhu Zhuqing consumed the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, which boosted her level from 31 to 38.

Zhu Lu's original level was 33, so it's perfectly reasonable for her to have surged to the peak of level 39 in one go.

More importantly, this Immortal Herb broadened her meridians, allowing her to cultivate at an unprecedented speed in the future.

"Good."

Dai Huabin pinched her cheek.

"These next few days, focus on consolidating your cultivation level. Before school starts, I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest and get you a top-grade, ten-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring. By then, the power of our Hell White Tiger will definitely double."

Zhu Lu was so excited she didn't know what to say, so she pounced on Dai Huabin and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.

"Huabin, remember this. No matter what happens in the future, I will always be your woman, and I will stay with you for the rest of my life!"

Dai Huabin patted her on the back with a smile, calming her down.

Then, he turned his head and looked at Ice Empress standing next to him.

Ice Empress felt uncomfortable under his gaze, crossed her arms, and snorted, "What are you looking at? I don't need you to feed me medicine."

Dai Huabin's lips curled up. Zhu Lu's strength had improved; now it was time to get down to business.

"Ice Empress, get ready."

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Dai Huabin's eyes.

"Tomorrow, we'll go to the top auction house in Star Luo City. Let's see if we can get that thing you've been longing for back."

Ice Empress was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening, and their breathing became rapid.

Snow Empress Embryo!
