CHAPTER 346: CHAPTER 75: SUPREME BEAUTY LIQUID (PART 2)
"Looks like Bai Juyi didn’t tell you, when you’re on someone else’s territory, don’t try to bargain, otherwise..." Mei Nian chuckled softly.
"Otherwise what? I only know that sometimes, you have to be polite before you get tough. You want the Meteor Crystal, I’ll give it to you," the mischievous plum leaves were sliced into two, producing a metallic "clang clang," adding a streak of black and white light in the air.
It was already too late for Mei Nian to strike with her Snow Blade; that streak of light was way too fast, she didn’t expect such a rapid attack from a seemingly young, low-level Cultivator.
The Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors were already frighteningly close, right at her throat.
"Meteor Crystal?" Mei Nian was shocked; the power and momentum, unexpected that Mei Xiang could have forged a Spiritual Artifact with Meteor Crystal, and even gifted such an important item to a little girl.
"It’s now called Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, be careful, don’t move a muscle. If I get distracted even slightly, these extremely sharp scissors will leave a hole in your throat," Xiao Xian squinted, carefully manipulating the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, and after searching through Mei Garden, found that withered Shen Zhou Red Snow in the corner of the gazebo.
Although the red and white Daffodil was withered, Xiao Xian believed that as long as it is planted in front of Mr. Bai’s grave, it will bloom again next year.
After grabbing the Daffodil, Xiao Xian moved next to Mei Nian, sized her up, and then suddenly reached into Mei Nian’s clothes; she had seen on TV that a common trick when stealing or robbing is to pat the inside of the opponent’s chest, checking for items while saying, "Who actually hides stuff like that inside their clothes, I knew TV is all lies, just a bottle, who knows what it is."
"How dare you!" Mei Nian watched as the bottle containing the Tianshan Red Lotus was taken by Xiao Xian, the edge of the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors very sharp, a slight carelessness, and it could slice open her throat. As a Cultivator, a normal wound didn’t bother her, but a wound inflicted by a Spiritual Artifact required a lot of Spiritual Energy to heal.
Losing Spiritual Energy would make it very difficult for her to break through and advance in a short time.
Not being able to advance, she couldn’t storm that place. Mei Xiang... this is indeed the blood disaster you mentioned, quite ironic, brought on by your own descendant.
"Seems like it..." Xiao Xian opened the bottle cap, smelled it, and searched her memory; she could now recognize precious herbs that were over a hundred years old.
Mei Nian hesitated slightly, "It’s just a common herbal medicine from the drugstore." The Tianshan Red Lotus had already been processed into a liquid by her, the kid couldn’t possibly understand what it is.
"Oh really? If it’s just ordinary herbal medicine, then give it to me as compensation for my aunt’s face," Xiao Xian’s words instantly changed Mei Nian’s expression.
Xiao Xian unapologetically took the item. Zhuo Feng didn’t say anything, but he was concerned about the swelling on his face. After all, who would want to appear in front of their own husband with a swollen face like a steamed bun.
Seeing Mei Nian both angry and anxious, Xiao Xian was overjoyed.
"Damned girl, remember this, don’t let me find you, or you will suffer," Mei Nian’s angry voice echoed back and forth in Mei Garden.
"Find us then we’ll talk? Uncle has already taken care of the house, we are moving this weekend," Xiao Xian happily got into the car. To prevent Mei Nian from catching up, she didn’t immediately summon back the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, but did so after the car had driven a long distance.
Feng Xing was driving when suddenly he saw a black and white light reflected in the rearview mirror, entering the car; he turned to look, but saw nothing.
Zhuo Feng anxiously asked, "Has she troubled you?"
"How could she, she was very polite, even gave us a bottle of beauty liquid, saying it’s even better than the LA MER you saw at the counter," looking behind the car seats, Xiao Xian was fiddling with a brown bottle, which looked like a pesticide bottle from a farm.
"Xiao Xian, what are you applying on your aunt’s face," Zhuo Feng felt a chilling sensation on his face, not even getting a chance to react before Xiao Xian had poured most of the Blood Lotus Liquid onto his face.
"Rejuvenating, wrinkle-smoothing, all beauty effects in one, use it quickly," Xiao Xian smelled a very pleasant fragrance, indeed living up to the five hundred-year-old Heavenly Mountain Blood Lotus reputation!
Xiao Xian made a quick decision, also applying several swipes to her own face; as the saying goes, it’s best to start skincare early.
Finally, with Zhuo Feng’s help, she also applied several swipes to Feng Xing’s face.
The next day, getting up to move, Zhuo Feng looked in the mirror and was thrilled. Not only did the swelling on her cheeks disappear, but the crow’s feet around her eyes also vanished.
"Husband, get up and see, don’t I look prettier," Zhuo Feng, dancing with joy, pulled Feng Xing up from the bed as well.
"It’s the same, a nose and two eyes, but seems a bit whiter, maybe staying in the detention center has made you fairer," Feng Xing, barely awake, mumbled.
"No, wait, husband, that very visible pimple mark on your nose is also gone," Zhuo Feng pushed Feng Xing in front of the mirror for a closer look.
This scared Feng Xing as well.
"How can that be? Xiao Xian really got some precious beauty liquid from Mei Nian’s hands, Xiao Feng, something’s not right here, we should move immediately," Feng Xing didn’t even wash his face, directly contacting the moving company, taking all the furniture and miscellaneous items in the nest, along with more than a dozen potted plants on the rooftop, and moved everything.
Not long after the moving company’s truck left, a red convertible parked at the entrance of the compound.
Mei Nian, grinding her teeth in anger, stormed out.
"Don’t let me find you, you little brat," after being played by Xiao Xian the previous night, Mei Nian immediately contacted the winter flower show organizers in the morning, got Zhuo Feng’s address, and rushed over.
By the time Mei Nian reached the fourth floor and kicked open the door, there was nothing but an empty "pesticide bottle" on the floor.
"Thank you for your five hundred-year-old Heavenly Mountain Blood Lotus," a note was stuck on the pesticide bottle. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian.com with recommendation tickets, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
