The Enemy Recovered First

"All wrong?" Xu Xuanyu scratched his head awkwardly, then blinked and said bitterly, "Could it be that after my cultivation was destroyed, my mind also developed some problems, and all of this was just my imagination?"

Lu Qing'an nodded decisively and said very seriously, "You should rest more, hey."

He looked at the patient with the same expression he had when looking at a cancer patient.

Xu Xuanyu was completely dejected. He had thought he had some special ability. If he had such an ability, even if he couldn't recover his cultivation, he could at least be of some use and wouldn't be like a cripple...

Just as Xu Xuanyu was thinking this, Xue Tianfei, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but make a sound and covered her mouth to laugh.

Xu Xuanyu noticed this and stared at Xue Tianfei in astonishment.

This is?

"Alright, your smile has ruined my plans." Lu Qing'an looked at Xue Tianfei, shaking his head and smiling.

Xue Tianfei said, "There's really no way around it; I always find it hilarious when I see you teasing others."

A humorous man!

I love it!

Xu Xuanyu: "???"

"Brother-in-law, what's this?" Xu Xuanyu blinked, his mind a complete blank.

"You're not out of your mind. What you just said matches the information about these potions perfectly."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xuanyu's eyes widened, and his face lit up with excitement once again. "Does this mean I really have special abilities?!"

Lu Qing'an nodded.

"This! That's great! Then I've finally been of some use!" Xu Xuanyu stood up and jumped twice on the spot.

"Brother-in-law! I have the ability to help you take better care of these potions!"

"These are just some dispensable potions, what's the point of you taking care of them?" Lu Qing'an said indifferently.

"Um, well, then I..."

"If you still have cultivation, there is a profession that is particularly suitable for you: Alchemist."

Xu Xuanyu forced an awkward smile, "But I'm in this state, I don't even know if I can recover."

"Don't worry about anything else, just get back to work."

"OK."

Xu Xuanyu continued walking towards the potion garden.

Xue Tianfei looked at Xu Xuanyu's retreating figure with a hint of melancholy, and said, "This ability is indeed peculiar; I've never heard of it before. If he still had cultivation, he could definitely become a very strong Alchemist."

This is definitely an extremely powerful talent for alchemy.

Lu Qing'an said, "Let's see what fate has in store for him. We'll wait for Dao of Alchemy Master to arrive."

Will Dao of Alchemy Master really come?

"Then it's up to this kid's fate."

He appeared very casual.

Xue Tianfei smiled and said, "Actually, you think highly of this kid. You've always been a stubborn person with a soft heart."

Lu Qing'an glanced at Xue Tianfei, wanting to say something.

I'm tough everywhere.

"By the way, what's the deal with this Old Xiao?"

Lu Qing'an then took out Sound Transmission Jade Slip and sent a message to Xiao Qingyi.

"What, you got lost too?" Lu Qing'an asked the moment the call connected.

Xiao Qingyi was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't believe it! Don't rush me, I'm not talking to you anymore!"

Lu Qing'an remained silent.

Is that place really that difficult?

Back when he was still at the Saint King Realm, he could come and go as he pleased.

This has even made a veteran Peak Great Emperor Realm expert stubborn.

"Fine, let's see when you old codger will come begging to me."

Lu Qing'an smiled.

Time passed quietly, and evening arrived.

Lu Zixuan and her friends returned from the academy.

Xu Xuanyu quickly found his sister and told her about his new discovery.

He even showed off to Lu Zixuan and the others, which made Lu Zixuan and Lu Miaomiao's eyes widen.

"Miaomiao, when your uncle finds that really delicious magic potion, I'll give it to you!"

"Really?! Haha, Uncle is awesome!"

After the children returned, they played for a while before going back to the Demon God Mother Tree to continue their cultivation.

Lu Qing'an sat alone in front of the stone pavilion, watching Xue Tianfei cooperate with his eldest daughter in cultivation, and became thoughtful.

Before long, Xue Tianfei used her Emperor Position to create an extremely cold ice chamber, wrapped Lu Zixuan up tightly, and then returned to the stone pavilion.

"I've noticed that your whole family is quite special. Is this the power of bloodline? This is the first time I've heard of someone possessing Ice Soul Soul Crystal Ice Soul Soul Crystal able to cultivate it even better in extremely cold environments," Xue Tianfei said, looking at Lu Qing'an with a sigh.

Lu Qing'an said proudly, "How could my daughter be simple?"

Upon returning, Lu Zixuan quickly found Lu Qing'an and told him about the strange things she had discovered at the academy.

After she reached the second level, she found herself in an icy, extremely cold environment. She then discovered that she was more powerful when using the Ice Soul Soul Crystal to attack Devil Beast.

Moreover, cultivating the Ice Soul Soul Crystal in an extremely cold environment allows the soul to become stronger at a rate more than ten times faster.

"If nothing unexpected happens, when Zixuan becomes empress, her Emperor Position will definitely be similar to mine, but I feel it should be even stronger than mine," said Xue Tianfei.

Lu Qing'an said, "From now on, I might have to trouble you to help her cultivate like this every day."

"No trouble at all! Besides, I've already sent people to help find some treasures with extremely cold spaces. Then I won't even need to use such a stupid method; I can just let Zixuan cultivate inside those treasures," Xue Tianfei said with a smile.

When Xue Tianfei said this, she glanced at his eldest daughter, her eyes full of admiration and her face full of tenderness, as if she truly regarded his daughter as her own. He fell silent.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Xue Tianfei asked shyly when she noticed Lu Qing'an staring at her cheek.

Lu Qing'an shook his head and smiled.

Another day has passed.

It was dusk.

Lu Miaomiao and the others returned.

"Little brother, how did your day with the potion go?" Xu Yunyi asked with a smile when she saw her younger brother.

Upon hearing his sister's words, Xu Xuanyu quickly smiled and said, "I'm fine. How about you guys?"

"We're doing well." Xu Yunyi looked at her younger brother, whose face was still full of smiles, and thought to herself that he must be in a very good mood since arriving here.

Just as she was thinking this, Lu Miaomiao, who was standing next to her, stared intently at Xu Xuanyu, then quickly pulled Xu Yunyi's hand and walked towards the room. "Auntie! Come into the room, I have something to tell you!"

Seeing Lu Miaomiao's mysterious look, Xu Yunyi asked with a smile, "Miaomiao, did you encounter something interesting at the academy?"

Lu Miaomiao didn't say anything, and pulled Xu Yunyi back into the room.

She made sure the door was closed, and then her cute little face suddenly looked very serious.

"Auntie! I've noticed that Uncle seems a little upset!"

"Hmm?" Xu Yunyi looked at Lu Miaomiao with suspicion and asked, "Miaomiao, how did you know your uncle was upset?"

Doesn't she look like she's having a good time smiling?

"I don't know either, I just sensed that my uncle was uncomfortable." Lu Miaomiao's little face was extremely serious.

Xu Yunyi blinked her beautiful eyes, then nodded. "Okay, I'll ask him later."

"Mmm!" Lu Miaomiao nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Xu Yunyi and Lu Miaomiao walked out of the room and looked at their younger brother, only to find him chatting and laughing with Lu Zixuan, without noticing anything unusual.

She then went outside and found Lu Qing'an.

"Brother-in-law, have you noticed anything unusual about my brother's behavior today?"

Lu Qing'an shook his head.

"Okay, then Miaomiao must have made a mistake..."

"Miaomiao? What happened?"

Xu Yunyi recounted what had just happened.

At this moment, Lu Qing'an couldn't help but think of what his daughter had told him about his apprentice being very lonely.

"Try asking your brother and see if you can get anything out of him."

He didn't think his daughter would talk nonsense.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yunyi nodded, then found her younger brother and pulled him into the room.

She crossed her arms, pretending to know the whole story.

Why didn't you tell me?

"What? Second sister, what are you talking about? I'm a little confused," Xu Xuanyu said, scratching his head.

"You think I don't know? You little brat, when did you start keeping everything bottled up inside? You used to speak your mind and vent your frustrations. Now that you're here, if you consider us family, stop keeping everything inside!"

Seeing his second sister's somewhat angry expression, Xu Xuanyu smiled wryly and said, "What can I say? He's just lucky..."

After Xu Yunyi subtly probed him, he finally learned the whole story.

She fell silent.

No!

Even their brother-in-law intervened, and Huangfu Qi pulled off a remarkable comeback?!
