Just The Last Dose Of Strong Medicine

(~˘▾˘)~~(˘▾˘~)

================

Jiang Lanzhi's jade hand clenched into a fist, and the cold indifference in her eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a worried expression.

Xiao Fan looked at the three monsters in front of him, with black-purple scales, crimson eyes, and sharp teeth and claws.

Two curved fangs were exposed, resembling ivory but not as white, instead, they were completely black.

Each of them was over ten feet tall, silently guarding the suspended demonic core. When they noticed Xiao Fan, they didn't attack.

Instead, they tightened their formation, protecting the demonic core even more securely. It was obvious that this demonic core was extremely important.

Xiao Fan paused.

How much strength should he use, to what extent should he fight, whether it would be a narrow victory, a mutual defeat, or a disastrous defeat.

He needed to think carefully, after all, it was related to the direction of his acting skills.

Seeing Xiao Fan pause, Jiang Lanzhi couldn't help but tense up, her face full of worry. She hurriedly shouted,

"Let's go back, this thing is not a must-have."

Xiao Fan turned around and smiled,

"Are you worried about me?"

Jiang Lanzhi wanted to say yes, but when she saw his mischievous look, she couldn't bring herself to say the words.

Seeing the worry on Jiang Lanzhi's face, Xiao Fan also knew which approach to choose.

Mutual defeat!

He first casually took a pill, deliberately letting Jiang Lanzhi see it.

As for the pill bottle, he didn't put it in his storage bag, otherwise it wouldn't fall out later.

He directly put it in his pocket, and later he would accidentally drop it, letting her see what kind of pill it was.

Jiang Lanzhi's focus was on the three monsters, and she saw Xiao Fan's actions, thinking that it was just some healing or spiritual power replenishing pill, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Xiao Fan took out a green blade from his storage ring.

Cold light, sharp and unstoppable.

He held the three-foot green blade, inheriting a bit of his father's sword immortal temperament.

With his back to Jiang Lanzhi, he deeply engraved that elegant figure in her heart.

Xiao Fan took the initiative to attack and fought against the three monsters.

At the beginning, the monsters were cautious and only sent one out, leaving the other two behind.

Xiao Fan clashed with it, the collision between the sharp claws and the green blade sparking.

At the same time, the Grand Righteous Qi radiated, restraining the demonic evil. The monster's movements were hindered, and its attack speed slowed down significantly.

Xiao Fan's sword cut thousands of wounds on the monster's body, blood dripping.

The monster's claws also tore Xiao Fan's clothes to shreds, but luckily he was wearing a Demon-Expelling Armor, so he didn't suffer many flesh wounds.

The claws were filled with killing intent as they narrowly missed Xiao Fan's chest, neck, and forehead countless times.

The most dangerous moment was when they grazed his forehead, cutting off a strand of his hair.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Lanzhi's heart rose to her throat. You must not get hurt!

Xiao Fan was very focused. Not only did he have to suppress his own strength, but he also had to pretend that he couldn't defeat the monster. He had to let the claws graze him, almost risking his life.

This situation lasted for fifteen minutes, and Xiao Fan's momentum began to rise.

It was time to start the real acting.

Suddenly, Xiao Fan went from being suppressed by the Void Refining Heavenly Demon monster to being evenly matched.

After another half a minute, Xiao Fan actually managed to firmly suppress the Heavenly Demon monster.

He even cut off the monster's right arm, causing it to scream in pain.

'What's going on? Why is his aura getting stronger?'

In the intense battle, Xiao Fan's momentum and strength became even more fierce.

This situation was too abnormal, causing Jiang Lanzhi to feel a trace of unease.

The Heavenly Demon monster couldn't defeat Xiao Fan and started to retreat, leaving only one to guard the demon core. This was a matter of the safety of the mother nest and couldn't be taken lightly.

Xiao Fan was being attacked by two Heavenly Demon monsters, but he managed to fight them evenly. Moreover, his aura was getting stronger, once again firmly suppressing the two Heavenly Demon monsters.

The remaining Heavenly Demon monster roared and set up a restriction to protect the demon core, joining the chaotic battle.

Three against one!

In the end, Xiao Fan was inadvertently ambushed by a sixth-ranked Heavenly Demon from behind, causing the bottle of pills he was carrying to fly away.

Inadvertently, the bottle happened to fly towards Jiang Lanzhi.

And once again, inadvertently, it was opened by Jiang Lanzhi.

Xiao Fan's aura no longer increased, but he fought the three Heavenly Demons evenly. He fought desperately, exchanging injuries for injuries, dealing heavy blows to the three Heavenly Demons.

Although he himself was covered in wounds.

Jiang Lanzhi looked at the flying pill bottle and caught it with her hand. Looking at the name on it, her pupils contracted.

"Burning Blood Pill!"

She naturally recognized it. This was a pill that consumed one's essence and blood to temporarily enhance one's strength.

The consequence of taking this pill was that it depleted the user's vitality and could even harm their foundation.

"No wonder, no wonder his aura increased. So he used this kind of pill."

Jiang Lanzhi looked at Xiao Fan, whose face was flushed and whose aura was powerful, and felt a stir in her heart. It was unease, worry, and the long-suppressed affection.

She didn't care about so much, even if she would get hurt, she still wanted to help him.

Jiang Lanzhi joined the battlefield, but Xiao Fan scolded her and said, "What are you doing here? Get lost!"

Jiang Lanzhi was stopped and wanted to say, "I..."

"Can't you hear me?" Xiao Fan said coldly, without any doubt.

Jiang Lanzhi stopped halfway, did he scold me?

Is he concerned about me?

As the Empress, she has always been the one scolding others, ordering others. This feeling of being scolded made her cheeks blush and her body tremble.

She could only answer softly, "I'll listen to you."

Xiao Fan also paused for a moment, something's not right, your tone just now, and your choice of words, something's off.

[Ding, you scolded Jiang Lanzhi, her attitude towards you has improved, progress in capturing her: 70%.]

Could it be, you're that kind of person? Xiao Fan thought of a possibility.

Lost in thought, he was directly slapped away by the monster, falling heavily to the ground, leaving a large pit in the shape of a person.

He even coughed up a mouthful of black blood.

'Now, the performance is almost over, right?'

The time is almost up, let's go straight to the final performance.

A powerful blood-burning technique, burning every drop of blood in his body, creating an image of a body covered in red light, boiling with blood.

"Blood Shadow Sword!"

Xiao Fan was enveloped in a layer of blood, and he began to attack fiercely, sword energy filled the air, flying everywhere, heading towards the three Heavenly Demons.

The momentum on his body had already surpassed the early stage of Void Refining and was approaching the mid-stage of Void Refining.

Although this situation only lasted for three breaths, it was enough for him to knock down all three Heavenly Demons in front of him, barely alive.

After completing all of this, Xiao Fan's aura began to rapidly decline, his face pale, gasping for breath.

He slowly landed, kneeling on one knee, using his sword to support his body so that he wouldn't lie on the ground.

But it wasn't over yet, he quietly injected a drop of demonic blood into one of the Heavenly Demons' bodies, instantly shattering its consciousness.

Its eyes became lifeless, becoming his puppet.

Alright, the props are ready.

Looking at Xiao Fan on the ground, covered in blood, pale face, Jiang Lanzhi's heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife.

She immediately went up and supported Xiao Fan.

"Are you okay? I told you not to be reckless, but you didn't listen."

"You really are something, is there anywhere uncomfortable? Don't move, take this Withered Wood Rejuvenation Pill. Your qi and blood are depleted too much, this pill is suitable for you." She poured out a pill with a fragrant smell and held it with two jade fingers, feeding it to him.

The worry in Jiang Lanzhi's tone was about to overflow. She took out a clean handkerchief with her unique fragrance and wiped away the bloodstains on Xiao Fan's face.

She looked like a gentle wife, without the appearance of a heartless Empress.

Even she herself didn't realize the change in her emotions towards Xiao Fan.

A smile squeezed out of Xiao Fan's face, although somewhat forced.

But in his heart, he was truly smiling.

Kid, your tricks are no match for mine.

"Cough, don't you want the demon core? It's over there, go get it."

Jiang Lanzhi's face was full of anger as she reproached, "Don't you cherish your own life?"

"I've said it before, the engagement gift I gave you, I've fulfilled it." He smiled brightly and said in a casual tone.

The bloodstains on his face hadn't dried yet, making him look somewhat ferocious.

But when he said these words, tears welled up in Jiang Lanzhi's eyes, shimmering as if about to fall.

"Hey hey hey, don't cry, crying will ruin your face. We made a deal, if you become an ugly monster, don't blame me for breaking off the engagement." Xiao Fan said carelessly.

He knew that in such painful moments, the more indifferent he appeared, the more it would stir up emotions.

Sure enough.

Jiang Lanzhi's face turned cold as she said, "How dare you!"

Xiao Fan looked at her with a smile that wasn't a smile, and Jiang Lanzhi also realized the problem. She quickly changed the subject, turning her face away, afraid that her blush would be noticed.

"Hmph, you can't make the decision, I only listen to Aunt's words. If you want to break off the engagement, go talk to our mother."

After saying that, she turned and left to collect the demon core.

Oops!

Our mother?

Did I slip up?

[Ding, Jiang Lanzhi is willing to repeat the same mistakes and fall in love with you, current progress: 89%.]

[90% is the turning point for warming the bed, it's also the critical point. Whether you can win her over depends on your ability.]

Listening to the system's voice, Xiao Fan knew that the day to win over Jiang Lanzhi was not far away.

Only one last dose of strong medicine was needed!

This dose of strong medicine would be a bit painful, but as long as he could win over Jiang Lanzhi, everything would be worth it.
