The Axis Cult is the second party with the profound water pill secret recipe. And they not only have the secret recipe, but also a large amount of medicinal herbs for refining profound water pills, with a background far exceeding the Xuanming Sect.
He hoped this guess was true, yet he hoped it was false.
True meant he could logically bring the Xuanming Sect to join the Axis Cult, allowing him to cling to a powerful backer while also spending time with Nannan.
False was because a trace of fear grew in his heart. If the Axis Cult even had the profound water pill, what else were they hiding?
Furina nodded slightly, her lips curling: "You guessed right."
Then she took a small bottle from her storage ring and tossed it to Xu Sanshi.
"Take a look, profound water pill."
Xu Sanshi scrambled to catch it, pulled out the cork, and poured out a Medicinal Pill.
The medicinal fragrance was pungent, the color round—no matter from which angle he looked, it was exactly the same as the profound water pill his own family produced. No, he even felt... the quality was even better.
He looked into the bottle again, there were a full ten of them.
Ten profound water pills, just thrown to him like this?
It seemed that for the Axis Cult, this thing was really worthless.
Furina laughed lightly: "Do you like it? If you like it, take it. I have even more good things here."
As she spoke, she seemed to inadvertently take out two Medicinal Pills from her storage ring, shook them in her hand, and quickly put them away.
But in that instant, Xu Sanshi had already seen clearly—those two Medicinal Pills were soul ascension pills, which were more than a grade stronger than the profound water pills.
"Holy crap... is your Axis Cult this rich?!" Xu Sanshi couldn't help but curse.
"It's okay." Furina's tone was indifferent, "It's just one ten-millionth of my wealth."
"Hiss—" Xu Sanshi gasped, not knowing whether to believe it or not, only knowing that he had to give a thumbs up to Furina and the Axis Cult behind her.
What kind of sacred entity is this? Which hidden Sect could have this kind of foundation? The legendary Clear Sky Sect? Impossible, even the Clear Sky Sect couldn't do this, right?!
Furina smiled slightly, striking while the iron was hot: "So, do you want to bring the Xuanming Sect to join my Axis Cult now?"
Her tone was understated, but carried undeniable certainty: "There is only this one chance. Next time, it won't be me inviting you, but you clinging to my thigh, crying and begging me to take you in. At that time, it will depend on my mood, after all, whether the Xuanming Sect exists or not really doesn't matter to me."
These words were half true and half false.
The Xuanming Sect was indeed not important, but the secret recipe for the profound water pill was very important. When she ascends to the God Realm in the future, no matter how many profound water pills she can exchange before leaving, there will always be a day when they run out. Only by holding the secret recipe can she produce them continuously and achieve true sustainable development.
Xu Sanshi was moved.
He was truly moved.
Being able to cling to the thigh of the Axis Cult and spend time with Nannan, this was a plan that couldn't be more perfect!
Even if his old man wanted to break his legs... well, for Nannan, breaking his legs was worth it!
Furina saw his expression loosen and added more fuel to the fire: "By the way, let me give you another piece of free information as a welcome gift."
She lowered her voice and leaned in mysteriously: "If you want to truly make up with Jiang Nannan, besides changing your words, deeds, and character, you also need to find a treasured land."
Xu Sanshi was stunned: "Treasured land? What treasured land?"
"Qiankun Gate of Asking Love Valley."
Furina spat out these five words, her tone carrying a hint of mystery:
"That is the territory of the God of Love. If you have the Opportunity to find that place and take Jiang Nannan with you, you might be able to repair the relationship between you two."
She paused and added: "It's only a possibility, I can't guarantee it. And before that, you have to work hard to leave a good impression in her heart—otherwise, even if you go to the Qiankun Gate of Asking Love Valley, it will be useless."
Xu Sanshi listened, his heart surging, and he quickly asked: "Then do you know where the Qiankun Gate of Asking Love Valley is?"
Furina rolled her eyes and said irritably: "How would I know? Didn't I say that you can only find it if you have fate? If I knew the exact location, I would have dug that place up long ago and turned it into the backyard of my Axis Cult."
Her words were not false. Besides the Qiankun Gate of Asking Love Valley, she also wanted to dig up the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well—although as long as she could exchange for the Flame of Life, she could continuously produce Advanced medicinal herbs, but who would complain about having too many treasured lands?
Xu Sanshi couldn't hear the deep meaning in her words, he just scratched his head, his face a mix of excitement and confusion.
Furina looked at his appearance and couldn't help but laugh in her heart.
The Love-Brain Continent, it lives up to its reputation. For the sake of love, these people really can give up everything.
She withdrew her thoughts and said indifferently: "The information has been given to you, whether you want to seize the Opportunity depends on yourself. As for the Xuanming Sect's affairs... go back and think about it carefully, and come find me when you've made up your mind. Give me an answer within a month~"
After saying this, she turned and walked towards the depths of the forest, leaving Xu Sanshi standing in place alone, holding the profound water pill in his hand, looking at her back, and not moving for a long time.
The sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows on the path. Furina's footsteps were light and calm, with a faint smile on the corners of her mouth.
The bait had already been cast.
As for whether this fish can be caught, it depends on whether he is "love-brained" enough.
