BTTH:The Rebirth of Liu Xi

Liu Xi stepped forward as if he had penetrated an invisible film, and the feeling of spiritual suppression disappeared. 

Liu Xi realized that the first round of the Illusion Level had completely ended. His narrowed eyes slowly opened, and the darkness from before was replaced by light. 

Looking up, he saw a fairly large square. On the other side of the square was a winding spatial passage. Next to the spatial passage sat an old man riding a turtle, squinting as if he was dozing. 

Noticing someone approaching, the old man opened his slightly clouded eyes, a light flashed in his eyes, he bowed his hands and smiled:

"Mr. Liu Xi is the first to pass the Illusion Level. Please wait for a while. When the time is almost up, I will announce the rules together." 

"No problem, sir, please."

Liu Xi smiled back. The identity of an eighth-level alchemist is indeed respected, but there is no need to show off and offend everyone around him. He walked to the side and found a stone bench to sit on. 

Not long after he sat down, the next person passed by. It was a charming woman. Who else could it be if not Cao Ying! 

Seeing Liu Xi, Cao Ying froze for a moment, and then changed her expression to a businesslike one. The latter's spiritual power was stronger than the former's. It would be strange if she did not pass first. 

When she walked into the middle of the square with lotus feet, Cao Ying stopped, smiled brightly, saluted, and respectfully said, "Elder Liao!"

The old man riding the turtle, known as Elder Liao, opened his eyes, and a kind and gentle smile appeared on his old face. He said softly:

"This is Miss Ying, you are here, sit down whenever you are comfortable. The second round will officially begin, and we still need to wait for the rest of the participants to arrive."

"Yes!"

Cao Ying replied, and walked gracefully towards Liu Xi, swaying her waist.

"Mister Liu Xi, I have come to see you many times before, but your maid Dou Zun stopped me. Are you really studying the recipe for the elixir, or do you not want to see me?"

Cao Ying approached with a slight reproach and a slight pity, as if Liu Xi had done something to her.

Liu Xi looked up, and the demon girl narrowed her eyes and pouted. She really did look a little pitiful. I have to admit, this demon girl is incredibly beautiful. 

But Liu Xi knew that this demon girl's gesture was like a caressing gesture to a chicken wishing a Happy New Year – she had no good intentions. 

Liu Xi smiled at the corner of his mouth, raised his hand, pointed to the stone bench on the right, and slowly said,

"Miss Cao Ying, please sit down first. The scroll Master Xuan sent is full of true revelations. Just a few words can dispel my confusion. I have been so immersed in it these days that I can't get out of it. I have no time to distract myself at all!"

Next to her, Cao Ying stroked the hem of her skirt and sat gracefully, her legs together and slightly leaning to the left. Her curvaceous figure formed a perfect arc. 

Her graceful body also leaned slightly to the left, and even Liu Xi could smell the unique fragrance mixed with the scent of medicine that emanated from Cao Ying. 

Cao Ying blinked and asked, "Really?" 

Liu Xi nodded and replied, "Of course it's true." 

Cao Ying smiled and slowly said, "Then I forgive you." 

"So what?" Liu Xi was speechless. He hasn't let you down in any way, so why should he apologize? 

Cao Ying then continued, "Master, do you know how things are in the Dan Kingdom? The first two stages should weed out most alchemists, and the second stage is much more dangerous than the first."

At least the first stage was not life-threatening, but the second stage was. Of course, Liu Xi knew all this and nodded:

"After the destruction of the Dan Kingdom, the energy was quite strong. Humans could not survive for long, but magical beasts and medicinal substances could, so it was full of powerful magical beasts and rare medicinal substances. 

So we have to deal not only with possible attacks from powerful magical beasts, but also with the dark hands of other alchemists seeking to obtain rare medicinal substances."

"You are right, sir!"

Cao Ying smiled charmingly, staring at Liu Xi, and said softly, with a charming and seductive voice:

"So, I want to temporarily form an alliance with you to pass the second round of testing together. With our summoning, we can gather a group of alchemists, and the second round of testing will be easy to pass." 

Liu Xi turned his head and looked at this charming woman like a cunning fox. It turned out that it was her idea to use the strength of the tiger to intimidate others. 

With her current strength and attractiveness, Liu Xi is not like the king of beasts, the tiger, in the alchemist group. As soon as she raises her hand, many are willing to follow her. 

If someone likes the feeling of a leader or covets Cao Ying's beauty, they may have already agreed.

However, Liu Xi was not used to carrying heavy things, and he was not attracted to Cao Ying's beauty, so Liu Xi flatly refused. 

"Miss Cao Ying, have you ever heard of such a saying?" 

Cao Ying pressed her hand to her cheek, her posture was seductive, her eyes were charming, and she smiled softly: "What is this?" 

Liu Xi said calmly: "The weak walk in groups, and the strong walk alone!" 

Cao Ying was stunned and exclaimed: "What?" 

Liu Xi smiled and explained: "You can understand that. I will quickly complete the second round alone. On the contrary, if I bring a bunch of people with me, it will only slow me down." 

She had never been ignored like this before. Cao Ying was so angry that her teeth itched. She stopped making such a seductive gesture and said angrily:

"Alright, this gentleman is indeed a strong man. I am a weak woman, unworthy of going with him. Since he doesn't need me, I will leave!" 

With that, Cao Ying stood up, swung her waist, and slowly walked to the other side.

"Haha, you really ignored my charms, just pretending to be unapproachable. What will you do when I leave?

Damn it, I came this far, and they didn't even come to stop me…"

Cao Ying, who had already gone far away, was completely at a loss. This was completely different from what she had imagined.

Looking back, she saw that Liu Xi was still sitting quietly, but she didn't even look at her. 

This made Cao Ying deeply doubt. How could someone ignore her charms? 

Near the entrance to the Dan Realm. 

Elder Liao, realizing everything that had happened, looked up at Liu Xi. Do you know who in the Dan Tower could refuse this demoness? 

Liu Xi was obviously able to get Cao Ying through customs, but she still refused without changing her expression. In terms of this determination, it was already quite remarkable. 

"As expected of a supreme genius, there is a reason why he was able to reach the level of an eighth-level alchemist." 

As time went on, more and more alchemists passed the first stage of the test and came to this square.

Including Song Qing, who had his own thoughts about Cao Ying, this man not only asked Cao Ying about her well-being, but also took the initiative to win over other alchemists using his individuality. 

However, is Cao Ying the kind of woman Song Qing can get? Obviously not! 

To lick a dog is to deprive the dog, in the end – nothing, alas…
